Chapter 175

"How could this be?" Jasmine was stunned, her confidence shattered by the unexpected defeat.

No one had anticipated Gabriel would fall so easily-especially to someone who looked so weak.

One of the vice leaders rushed forward, grabbing Gabriel from the arena and shaking him awake.

Gabriel groaned, then blinked as he came to.

"So, I lost?"

He stood up, rubbing his head, but instead of regret, a smirk stretched across his face.

"I'm sorry, Miss Kingston. I didn't expect to meet someone that strong," he said, shrugging

"But don't worry! My vice leader will secure the next two wins. We can still turn this around."

He turned to Karl. "Karl, you're up next. Make sure you win this round."

"Yes, leader!" Karl responded and immediately stepped toward the arena. "Stop it!" Kelly suddenly shouted, her voice sharp with fury.

"You're losing on purpose!"

"Don't you dare send another one of your men in! Jasmine, these people are trying to drag us down!"

"Shut up," Gabriel shot back. "We're trying to win. That man was just a hidden master. But don't worry, Miss Kingston, we've got this."

Karl locked eyes with Gabriel, exchanging a silent signal, then rushed into the arena.

Jasmine's stomach twisted. If Karl entered and lost, according to the contract, Kingston would be finished.

"Stop!" Kelly yelled again, desperation in her voice.

Jasmine stepped forward, her voice firm. "We haven't decided our second fighter! No one fights without my approval!"

Jericho Kane let out a cold laugh. “I don't care about your approval. If someone from your side steps into the arena, then that's your fighter. It's as simple as that."

Something was very wrong.

Kelly saw Karl just steps away from entering.

She knew words wouldn't stop him. Without hesitation, she forced herself forward, rushing into the arena ahead of him.

"I'll be the second fighter," Kelly announced, her voice steady.

Karl skidded to a halt, just one step behind her.
