Chapter 5853

The next day, the semi-finals began: Team Xiaoyao vs. Team Moshan, and Team Zuling vs. Team Zhuguang. Team Zuling and Team Zhuguang were the first to face off, and Chen Xuan sat on the sidelines with his teammates to watch. As the Legendary Peak Tournament reached the semi-final stage, Chen Xuan noticed an increasing number of high-profile figures in the spectator stands. Notably, in the section where Odessa sat, he spotted Darius—the man who had gifted the four colored cards to Team Xiaoyao—among the crowd. Many of those nearby were busy currying favor with him. At the judges' dais, alongside Frederick, sat a new, heavyweight presence: Bonapart. He was the second-ranked official in the Holy Light City branch of the Supreme Divine Court, second only to Junshitang III. As for Zu Xiang, the Elder of the Zuling clan whom Zu Long had mentioned, he was nowhere to be seen. Regardless, the appearance of Bonapart was enough to indicate the high level of importance the Supreme Divine Court placed on this year’s tournament. In previous years, figures of Bonapart's caliber would only appear for the finals.
