John was not surprised at all by their results.
For example, Holly's swordsmanship had always been unbelievably sharp.
Among everyone John had ever encountered, excluding Sovereign-rank powerhouses, she was without question the strongest swordsman he had ever seen.
Odelle's close-combat ability was equally terrifying.
She might look harmless on the surface, like someone who possessed nothing but knowledge and little actual strength.
But the moment a real battle began—
she fought even more ferociously than those so-called combat specialists.
Her style was practically suicidal in its aggression.
Then there was Silt.
She could essentially be regarded as a lower-spec version of John.
Among those at the same level, she was practically invincible.
If these three women had failed to rank near the top, John might genuinely have suspected that the Will of the Universe had rigged the tournament.
Not long after the announcement from the Will of the Universe ended—
whoosh!
