After walking for a while, Jay reached the place where the melee tournament was taking place. It was a large fenced area near Greengarden's walls. The moment Jay arrived, the place was packed with different types of people. Street vendors selling refreshments, muscular people trying to impress the crowd, and knights who were probably here just to watch the show of people punching each other.
There was a bit of commotion due to the large crowd and some even started fighting. It even got worse when some of these muscular people saw Jay.
"Scram kid! This ain't a place for sissies!" A random muscular guy that was only wearing a set of leather pants blocked Jay. Together with this guy, a few other knights in the usual steel armor set and some brutes looked at Jay disdainfully.
Jay knew this was a pretty common thing that happened in tournaments. So he glanced at the man who said that to him and delivered a really fast punch on his crotch.
The man did not even bothered to dodge it since he thought Jay was just pulling a prank and wanted to get beat up. But he was very, very wrong. The moment Jay's fist landed on his crotch, he felt a crunching pain and before even having a chance to recover, he felt a strong kick directly at his face.
"Anyone else?"
Jay asked the rest of the onlookers while he stepped on the face of the muscular guy. Of course, no one was stupid enough and still provoke Jay after all of that. So everyone minded their own business and stayed away from Jay.
Then after a few minutes that happened, a man riding a horse arrived. He had short brown hair, had a scruffy face, and was wearing a noblemen's attire. He was also holding a horn in his right hand. Together with him was 2 black knights on foot.
He blew on the horn three times. After that, the crowd suddenly stopped with whatever they were doing and gave way to the guy.
"Welcome folks. Welcome to the melee tournament. My name is Lord Marvin, and I will be the one who will preside over this tournament. Now, all participants shall move inside the fenced area, as for spectators, please give way and do not cause traffic."
After saying this, Lord Marvin, the guy who blew the horn, dismounted his horse and turned it into monster essence. A skill used by beast tamers to carry around their tamed beasts.
...
A few seconds later, around 140 participants including Jay were currently within the fenced area. As for Lord Marvin, he was mixed in with the spectators and his black knights were protecting him at his sides. Seeing that everything is in order, Lord Marvin spoke up.
"Alright. Everyone listen up. The melee tournament is simple. Beat each other up until only one of you remains. No sharp weapons or ranged weapons allowed. START!"
After Lord Marvin shouted start, the participants immediately went into action. The knights who joined used wooden poles to fight, the muscular men who was half nude were using their fists to punch each other, and some even just ran around waiting for the number of participants to lessen.
As for Jay, he just rushed at anyone who looked at him as some kind of weak target and punched them in the balls and kicked their faces. The same thing he did with the muscular guy who called him a sissy.
"Oh? Nineteen, what's the background of that kid? The one going around and punching the balls of others." Lord Marvin was currently intrigued with Jay and decided to ask one of his black knights.
"My lord, do you want me to collect information on him now? Or will you talk to him afterwards?" The black knight replied.
"No need. I am pretty sure that this kid belongs to a powerful guild. Soaring Skies maybe? Or White Fang? What do you think Nineteen?"
The black knight was not sure how to respond this time. Just as he was about to give his answer, the spectators suddenly shouted and caught the attention of Lord Marvin.
"Oi! Look! Only four people are left! It hasn't even been 5 minutes!"
Just like the dumbfounded spectators, Lord Marvin and his two black knights did not know what happened so Lord Marvin asked one of the spectators what happened.
"My lord, in truth is, I am not sure of what happened either. I was just enjoying watching some knights whack each other with their weapons. I remembered that after I blinked, those knights I was watching suddenly dropped to the ground. As for the rest of the participants, I believe I also saw them drop one by one."
After hearing the man's explanation, Lord Marvin handed over a silver coin to him and decided to pay more attention to the melee fight.
"Just what the hell is going on?"
...
A few minutes back in time...
While Jay was busy punching and kicking people, there were two participants who were just idling by the corner of the fenced area. It was still crowded with participants at that time so no one noticed them.
"Gallows, what are you doing here? Are you really that bored and decided to toy with these people?"
A skinny guy asked. The only thing he was wearing was some kind of black and scaly armor that went down from his waist to his feet. He was completely topless. He had white long hair and had a scruffy appearance.
"Look who's talking. Aren't you too busy due to being a guild leader?" A man wearing a full set of golden armor asked. His shoulder guards were even topped with black colored spikes. His golden helmet was also shaped like a lion's head.
Right now, both of them were really bored and had nothing to do.
"What a farce. I thought this tournament will get a bit interesting since I saw a few black knights signing up earlier. But I do not see any of them right now." The man in golden armor sighed as he finally budged from the corner and started attacking everyone he saw, except the skinny guy he was talking with earlier.
"Why don't I add some kind of spice to this melee tournament?" After that casual remark, the skinny guy also made his move and suddenly vanished, or rather, he was moving too fast for normal people to see.
...
So together with Jay, these two people went out of their way and defeated almost all of the participants. As for the fourth guy who remained, it was someone wearing a plain, blue hooded robe.
The four of them were currently in a standoff. Jay was the one who broke the awkward silence.
"Looks like a strong opponent finally appeared. Greetings friends." After saying this aloud, Jay thought to himself, "The man in golden armor must be Fiery Gallows from Soaring Skies. As for the white haired guy, he must be White Fang's guild master, Axel. As for the blue robed person... who the hell is it?"
Fiery Gallows was just about to say something and praise Jay and the blue robed person. But he suddenly saw Jay rushing towards him and Axel like an idiot.
"Pity. I was just about to congratulate you. It is a bit sad that you decided to fight us."
Sadly, the pity Fiery Gallows felt caused him to get punched in the face. He thought Jay was going to punch somewhere else since he was wearing a full set of armor, but Jay actually went for his face that was covered with his helmet. Of course, he did not dodge.
~~Crack
~~Whoosh
Not even having a chance to react, Fiery Gallows felt his nose cracking together with his golden lion helmet and was sent flying outside of the fenced area.
"What?!"
The guild leader of White Fang, Axel, suddenly stopped being too casual and decided to fight Jay with his full force. Again, he moved so fast that it looks like that he vanished.
"Who the hell is that kid? To actually sent Gallows flying just from one punch. It looks like I have to take this seriously." After this thought in his mind, Axel rushed towards Jay who looked like a sitting duck in front of him due to his fast speed.
"Drop dead kid!"
Just as he was about to deliver an uppercut, he saw Jay suddenly smiling at him and he suddenly felt a powerful kick between his legs.
"Impossible."
Axel did not want to lose to a kid and decided to go for the kill. He suddenly took out a small knife from his storage ring and threw it at Jay. The moment he did, he suddenly heard Jay mocking him.
"Tssk. Are you really the guild leader of White Fang or are you some kind of imposter? Your speed is a bit disappointing."
After hearing that, he suddenly felt Jay punching his chest and was sent flying towards the spot where Lord Marvin was watching.
...
"Woah. Why are they so weak? (Did I use too much strength or am I just too strong right now? Or are they still not that strong since it is still the early stages of the game?)"
The only ones currently left standing on the fenced area was Jay and the person in blue robes.
"Aren't you going to take your hood off? Don't you feel hot from getting covered up like that?"
Jay said as he did some stretches.
Then the blue robed person talked in a feminine voice.
"Why not? If it's a kid like you asking, it is pretty hard to say no."
She then took of her hood. The moment she did, the spectators who were dumbfounded with the situation became frenzied as they saw who it was.
"Princess Hailey?!"
