Chapter 1578

However, the match was far from over.

Even after Emmanuel exited the arena, Yosef was relentless in his pursuit.

“Die! Die.now!”

Yosef’s blade descended from above with the rage of a tempest. He was intent on

taking Emmanuel’s life.

“Stop! Stop now!”

Despite the emcee’s pleas over the speaker system, Yosef’s frenzy could not be halted.

He persisted in his attacks, swinging his blade over and over again.

As Emmanuel had lost his chance to attack, he could only dodge. His exhaustion

meant new wounds kept appearing on his body.

With only 70% of his strength remaining, Emmanuel could never be able to defeat an

irrational and berserk Yosef in a normal battle unless he was going to use As Above, So

Below to risk it all.

At the next moment, the fighters of the Martial Arts Association rushed in to restrain

Yosef.

Even so, no one could get close to the deranged man. Those who got too close to him

would be injured by his aura.

They all wondered if Emmanuel could actually survive Yosef’s demonic onslaught.

Swoosh!

Yosef forced Emmanuel into a corner and swung his blade down once more.

Emmanuel could dodge the attack, but that would result in the death of the crowd

behind him.

What should he do?

As he was caught in a dilemma, a figure suddenly dashed in before him and swiftly

grabbed Yosef’s blade.

The crowd was stunned.

Even Emmanuel was staring at the person before him in shock.

“Quick! Assist the chairman in subduing Yosef now!”

Joe immediately instructed.

While Horace had both of his arms occupied with clamping down Yosef’s right arm, the

crowd of fighters swarmed over.

Finally, they were able to knock out the crazed Yosef.

The audience was all shocked beyond their senses. When they saw Yosef collapsing

before being tied up, they all let out sighs of relief.

“Thank goodness!”

Mackenzie softly exclaimed to herself as she collapsed back onto her seat while her

head spun slightly.

Horace looked down at his bleeding hands with a dazed look in his eyes.

If he had known just how terrifying Yosef was, he might not have allowed Yosef to fight.

Now, Yosef had won the fight. Could he still be allowed to continue competing?

Joe walked over to Horace.

“Mr. Adkins, are you all right?”

“I’m fine.”

Horace did not want anyone to know that his hands were injured, so he hid them

behind his back as he softly spoke to Joe.

Joe nodded before heading up on the stage and announcing, “Yosef Harper,

representative of the Tanner family of Onza, has won the round, but his eligibility for the

next round will be deliberated on. The decision will be disclosed before tomorrow

night’s match.”

The audience erupted into a frenzy.

Although the match had concluded, the excitement still lingered in the air.

There was no doubt that this was the most exhilarating bout of the Grand Martial

Chapter 1578 The Showdown Continues

Showdown thus far. Both contenders had showcased their full might, proving that they

truly were worthy of the S Rank designation.

Emmanuel’s defeat was lamentable yet undeniable.

Mackenzie eventually relaxed. In her mind, a victory paled in comparison to her

husband’s safety. As long as he remained unharmed, he was her and her baby’s hero.

She then shot to her feet.

“I’ll go with you, Mackenzie.”

Beatrix stood up and walked over to her.

Mackenzie looked at her with a frown. “Why?”

“To check on Emmanuel. He has won the competition, so why isn’t he back yet?”

Beatrix pretended to be ignorant.

However, that only made Mackenzie’s frown deepen as she could guess what was

going on.

Still, since Beatrix did not openly mention it, Mackenzie could only pretend to be

ignorant as well. “I’m only going to the restrooms.”

“I’ll go with you too. You’re pregnant. You need someone to look after you.”

Beatrix held tight to Mackenzie’s hand.

In the corridor, Sage silently kept watch.

While he could protect Mackenzie, he could not follow her into the restrooms.

In the end, Mackenzie nodded in response. Before she left, she even glanced at Shane

and Frederick.

The two ignorant men were still arguing over their bets.

“It’s your fault for not following my bet! You don’t know anything about martial arts, yet

you’re so stubborn. No amount of money will be enough to cover your losses!”

“I would rather lose than support Yosef. He killed Emmanuel’s cousin!”

“I’m telling you right now that if you want to be rich, you have to put aside pride and

morals.”

Mackenzie smiled. Putting aside whether or not Shane was likable, he had great luck

and understood the truth of the world they lived in better than Frederick did.
