At this moment, the judges seated next to the dueling platform all had strange looks on their faces.
They hadn’t expected that there would be a situation where the arena lord was so powerful that no one dared to challenge him.
Thus, in the rules that had been set up, there were no corresponding rules to deal with this situation.
The judges looked at each other, then discussed a few things.
Finally, the referees asked for Clemente’s instructions.
Although Clemente was only at the peak of the highgod level, he was still a bit lower than their god level.
However, Clemente was the number one genius of the Orencia Empire, and he was also known as the blade of Orencia.
His status wasn’t something a mere god could compare to.
The spectators below, as well as the arena lords and challengers on the dueling platform, were already somewhat impatient, but no one dared to say anything.
However, they didn’t continue to wait for long.
At this moment, a referee flew to the center of the circle formed by the dueling platform.
He announced loudly to everyone in the Imperial Capital Plaza.
“If no one comes up to continue the challenge, this arena lord will automatically obtain victory and obtain the qualifications to enter the tomb of the sovereign!”
After the referee finished speaking, he looked towards the crowd in the Imperial Capital Plaza.
No one spoke. Everyone’s eyes were wide open as they fell into a state of shock. Their eyes revealed an expression of disbelief.
There was actually someone who had won just like that?
To obtain the right to enter the tomb of the sovereign after just one battle?
At the same time, everyone felt that this was very normal.
Everyone knew that even after ten battles, this arena lord that no one had ever heard of would still obtain victory.
Not to mention that no one else dared to challenge this ringmaster, even the other nine ringmasters on the other dueling platforms might not be able to defeat this ringmaster.
Hearing the referee’s words, Joelson was also stunned for a moment.
It could still be like this?
But to him, this was no different.
Joelson shook his head and didn’t think too much but soon his brows furrowed slightly again.
The Imperial Capital Plaza fell into a strange silence.
Not to mention the challenger who had flown onto the dueling platform, even the person who had spoken was gone. He was afraid that he would be sent onto the dueling platform to embarrass himself.
Seeing this scene, the referee finally announced to everyone.
“Since no one dares to continue the challenge, this ringmaster has automatically won and obtained the right to enter the tomb of the sovereign!”
The referee looked at Joelson, then asked, “What’s your name?”
“Joelson.”
“Alright, Joelson, you’ve won. You can go down now. After the match is over, come to the referee’s seat to receive your badge.”
After the referee finished speaking, he turned around and flew towards the direction of the referee’s seat.
Suddenly, a voice called out to him.
“Can I give my qualifications to a friend and then I’ll continue to challenge the other arena lords?”
Joelson looked at the referee and said in a low voice.
Some people who were closer to the dueling ring heard this.
The crowd was once again in a state of shock, revealing expressions of disbelief.
What was this person saying?
He actually wanted to give his qualifications to someone else?
He wanted to challenge other ringmasters to obtain the qualifications?
Although everyone was shocked, this time, no one thought that he was arrogant.
Because everyone knew that he really had the ability!
At the same time, everyone revealed envious expressions.
Who was the one with such good luck?
To be able to make such a loyal friend and voluntarily give up his qualifications.
Why wasn’t he their friend?
Sigh!
However, would the referee agree to his request?
If he could do this, wouldn’t he be able to occupy all ten spots by himself?
The crowd looked at the referee, anticipating what he would say.
The referee’s movements froze. He froze in mid-air.
The way he looked back at Joelson was very strange but he didn’t reject him directly.
The rules only said that the loser ringmaster or challenger would lose their qualification, but Joelson didn’t lose.
He just wanted to give his qualification to someone else, and the rules didn’t forbid this kind of behavior.
Therefore, in theory, what Joelson did was completely in accordance with the rules.
However, he could not agree to this alone.
Thus, the referee said, “Wait a moment.”
Then, the referee flew to the seat of the referee and discussed with the other referees.
When the referees heard Joelson’s request, they revealed astonished expressions.
It was too late for the others to snatch the right to enter the tomb of the sovereign.
This arrogant brat actually wanted to give it to someone else?
And then challenge the other arena lords himself?
However, this sort of behavior didn’t seem to violate the rules.
The referees were also put in a difficult position.
They had no choice but to ask for Clemente’s instructions in the end.
“Interesting.”
When Clemente heard what the other referees said, he revealed a smile and whispered to himself.
The gaze he looked at Joelson became even more interested.
“Agree to his request but only this time.”
Clemente nodded slightly and said to the referees.
“Yes, my lord.”
The referees said respectfully.
The people on the side of the dueling platform were waiting just like Joelson. They were even more anxious than Joelson and they were looking forward to what kind of answer the judges would bring.
The judges did not refuse at the first moment. Instead, they went back to discuss. They were already a little surprised.
When the people saw the judges go back, they discussed for a while and then asked for instructions from the Blade of Orencia.
Seeing the Blade of Orencia, Clement, everyone revealed looks of admiration.
Clement could be said to be the target of all the younger generation of the Orencia Empire.
He had already reached the peak stage of the demigod realm at the age of fewer than ten thousand years. His power was no longer something an ordinary early-stage god could compare to.
Even the judges of a few gods would need to ask Lord Clemente before they could make a decision.
The crowd didn’t have to wait for long before the judge returned.
The judge looked at Joelson and said, “Your request doesn’t violate the rules. We can agree to it, but only this once.”
“Thank you. I understand.”
Joelson nodded slightly, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
He had originally wanted to challenge an arena lord, then give up his qualifications.
He wanted Toby and Edessa to obtain the qualifications to enter the tomb of the sovereign, and then he himself would challenge a ringmaster to obtain the qualifications.
But being able to obtain a single qualification was already considered good enough.
After all, the referee couldn’t possibly allow him to take all ten of the spots by himself.
Everyone revealed envious gazes. It seemed that Lord Clemente was very appreciative of Joelson.
At the same time, there was a hint of doubt in everyone’s hearts. They were very curious about who the friend that Joelson was talking about was.
At this moment, the news from the side of the dueling platform had already been transmitted over.
Toby and Edessa looked at Joelson with a complicated gaze. Their faces were filled with gratitude.
They had not expected that Joelson would actually propose to give the qualifications to his friend and challenge the other arena lords himself.
The friends that Joelson spoke of were naturally the two of them.
The two of them were moved. The first time Joelson had met them, he had saved their lives. This time, he had won them the qualifications to enter the tomb of the sovereign.
They had already given up.
