I Only Tame Dragons

Chapter 192 Nonstop Battles and Desperate Gambits

The players were given a brief reprieve to recover before the next match. For the audience, the short breaks between battles only heightened the anticipation, as the action was relentless.

The arena was alive with energy, every roar of the crowd echoing through the massive stadium as they clamored to see who would emerge as the champion.

The tournament had reached its boiling point. Each day, guilds clashed with everything they had, and only the truly powerful remained standing. The weaker ones had been weeded out early, their hopes crushed by the unrelenting strength of the elite. Now, the battles weren't just about skill—they were wars of endurance, strategy, and raw power.

One guild, the Crimson Raptors, became known for their explosive aerial strikes, leaving opponents scrambling to counter their lightning-fast maneuvers. The Frostveil Sentinels froze their competition—literally—turning the battlefield into a frozen wasteland. The Wingless Valkyries dazzled the crowd with flawless tactics, their leader Seraphina's blade cutting through even the most stubborn defenses.

Meanwhile, the Brotherhood Legion bulldozed their way through every round, their disciplined ranks and overwhelming strength making them a force to be reckoned with.

But amidst these titans, it was Nyx's Guild that stole the spotlight. They were supposed to be an unknown guild, a group of nobodies. Yet, round after round, they shocked the audience and their rivals alike with their seamless coordination and raw talent.

Horizon, the enigmatic leader, had emerged as a dominant figure, his indifferent and unshakable composure unnerving even the most seasoned opponents.

While the audience reveled in the spectacle, others watched the tournament with growing unease. The Elven Elders, seated in the shadows of the VIP stands, grew more restless with each passing day. Their frustration simmered, hidden behind composed expressions as they whispered among themselves.

"How are they still advancing?" one elder hissed, his sharp eyes fixed on the arena.

"They've survived every challenge we've thrown at them," another muttered, his fists clenched tightly. "This should've been over by now."

In the latest match, Horizon's team had dismantled their opponents with ease that the crowd erupted into deafening cheers before the final blow even landed. Their individual strength was seamless, their strategies flawless.

The Elven Elders watched in silence, their frustration boiling over. They had exhausted every trick in the book, yet Nyx's Guild remained unscathed.

"We need to stop them," one elder said, his voice low and urgent. "If they win, everything we've worked for will be for nothing."

Another elder shook his head, his expression grim. "We've tried everything. Nothing's worked. And now . . . we're out of time."

The Queen of the Kingdom of Stars, seated in her private throne, watching in her kingdom, seemed oblivious to the Elders' plight. Her focus was on the matches, her expression serene. But the Elders knew better. If Nyx's Guild won, there would be consequences. The Queen's wrath was not something they wanted to face.

As the next match loomed, the Elders exchanged wary glances. They had one final card to play, but it was risky—a direct intervention that could expose their scheming to the Queen of Elves. Yet, with no other options left, they knew it might be their only chance.

Down in the preparation rooms, Horizon and his team prepared for the next battle, unaware of the storm brewing behind the scenes. The matches were only growing fiercer, but Horizon's calm demeanor never wavered.

"They're trying to stop us. It's so obvious now," Lydia said, her voice low as she adjusted her armor.

"Let them try," Horizon replied, his tone cold. "We'll keep winning."

And as they stepped onto the battlefield once more, the crowd erupted into cheers, their voices echoing through the arena. Nyx's Guild was unstoppable, and nothing—not sabotage, manipulation, or even the desperation of the Elven Elders—could change that. Enjoy new stories from My Virtual Library Empire
