At the banquet, Leo Ray ignored the Half-Titan Prince Mad Axe Rax's provocations and unveiled long tables laden with superior delicacies, including exquisite Summer Realm cuisine that outshone the giants' fare and filled the hall with enticing aromas. Allies from the Rainforest and Desert alliances, along with others, eagerly feasted, leaving the Half-Titans and Stone Giants envious and drooling in humiliation. Frustrated by the reversal, Rax challenged the Human Emperor to a contest, drawing concerned looks from Leo Ray's companions as he stepped forward.

Capítulo 2791: Chapter 1531: Showdown at the Banquet (Part 2)

When Leo Ray moved away from the dining table, Sina, Loris, old Gary, along with the other powerful figures from the three alliances, and the half-Titan and Stone Giant across from them, including Rax in person, all found themselves stunned.

Absolutely no one had anticipated that Leo Ray would truly take up Rax's challenge.

“Hey, Human Majesty, this isn't the moment for rash actions!”

Anxiety filled Loris's lion-like features as he whispered urgently at Leo Ray's retreating figure, “They're merely putting on a display; there's no reason for us to clash directly with them!”

“Exactly, Human Majesty, that fellow is incredibly tough to handle! He's nothing like the previous Bisos and Rock!”

After Loris spoke, Sina and the rest chimed in agreement, their expressions brimming with worry.

It was crystal clear to all that Leo Ray served as the unbreakable pillar of their group, and should misfortune befall him, they'd be left without direction, leading to unthinkable outcomes.

Furthermore, through various incidents, Leo Ray had gained the full trust and admiration of the team, and on a personal level, Sina and others were utterly unwilling to witness any harm coming to him.

“Haha, Human Emperor, your boldness alone deserves respect.”

Rax cracked his enormous fists with popping sounds and faced the steadily advancing Leo Ray.

Rax was well aware of how Leo Ray had previously humiliated Bisos and Rock, yet those pair were merely at Tier 6 Peak. He figured Leo Ray had relied on some hidden ace to barely slip away unharmed.

However, as a true half-step Tier 7 expert, his might and prowess far surpassed Tier 6 Peak in every way. Attempting any sly maneuvers against him was tantamount to seeking demise.

“Administrator, with the show ready to start, shouldn't we prepare a suitable arena?”

As soon as Leo Ray positioned himself nearby, the immense Rax shifted his attention to Administrator I.

“I get it,”

Administrator I responded in a flat, uninterested voice, nodding with evident hesitation.

With those words, the surrounding space around Leo Ray and Rax expanded rapidly, pushing the nearby dining table and attendees far off. A vast zone, equivalent to two soccer pitches, materialized in the heart of the Banquet Hall.

Leo Ray had grown accustomed to such spatial alterations, having faced them in sessions with Moli or battles against demons, so he remained unfazed. In contrast, Administrator I, the one who triggered the spatial shift, revealed a trace of unease in his gaze.

Keep in mind, the Bazaar Brotherhood forbids any guest brawls inside the Shadow Market, let alone an Administrator facilitating the space. Yet, both the half-Titan and Stone Giant were his patrons, leaving him no choice but to comply.

In this bind, if Leo Ray met any mishap, the administrators from the opposing side would surely inform the Bazaar Brotherhood, particularly given that Leo Ray kept his Communication Magic Stone active.

Thoughts like these caused large sweat drops to bead on Administrator I’s brow beneath his enclosed combat helmet. At this point, he could only wish for Rax to hold back, ensuring the Human Emperor's safety at minimum, or he'd face severe repercussions.

As Administrator I grappled with mounting dread, the half-Titan and Stone Giant, on the other hand, observed the unfolding drama with sneers and eager expectation.

Even among third-class factions, and certainly in second-class ones, Prince Mad Axe Rax carried a terrifying notoriety. Crushing that arrogant Human Emperor would be as simple as stepping on an insect.

Suddenly, the giants' roars of approval and cheers echoed wildly through the banquet hall, causing Sina and her companions to grit their teeth harder, their tension visibly spiking.

“Haha, Human Emperor, your daring truly stands out, yet certain gaps can't be bridged by guts alone.”

While basking in the giants' acclaim, Rax drew nearer to Leo Ray, his scarred bronze visage growing somber as he uttered icily, “To charge forward despite knowing this amounts to sheer stupidity!”

At that, Rax hurled his colossal balled fist, his hulking form lunging explosively toward Leo Ray with savage intent.

The swinging behemoth of a fist whipped up a ferocious gust, rattling distant plates and goblets, unleashing a thunderous aura.

Even more astonishing was the velocity, wildly at odds with his bulky frame, showing zero signs of awkwardness or delay!

“It's done for; Rax held nothing back, clearly provoked by that Human Emperor—now the Human Majesty is doomed.”

Witnessing this, Administrator I's chest clenched instantly, his features twisted in dismay.

One had to realize that even he would struggle to withstand such a blow from the foe!

Yet in the very next instant, his eyes bulged wide in utter shock.

Leo Ray, calm and unhurried, enveloped in a surge of violet magical glow, abruptly vanished in a flash from all views.

His swift, graceful silhouette trailed only a streak of electricity, effortlessly dodging Rax's descending monstrous punch.
