Similar to Hemlock, Adrian's next three opponents also surrendered.
The audience expected it to happen after having heard Hemlock's reasoning.
But they didn't expect even a 6-star to forfeit without a fight too.
Yes, Adrian's opponent for the 6th-round was a ranker renowned throughout the Mozard Empire.
The words he said were etched into everyone's mind :
"Even a 6-star would've difficulty doing what he did to his opponents, his skill is obviously above 6-star.
And if he is more powerful than me without using his dominant hand and primary weapon then, there is no reason to embarrass myself, is there?"
And like this, Adrian advanced to the semifinals.
However, everyone didn't have the same luck as Adrian.
They had to fight fierce matches to reach the semifinals.
But the fact that shocked almost everyone was that the fighters were ready to fight Princess Iris but not Winter Nightfallen.
