Chapter 673. Couldn’t Afford to Lose

Once Pallas announced the match, Rodney weaved his head away as he readied his two-handed hammer.

Everyone was confused why he did that, but then they remembered that Jeanny had made an abrupt and aggressive thrust the moment her match started last time. Rodney must have thought that this was how Jeanny liked to start her match. Little did he know that the aggressiveness was because of her opponent's rudeness.

However, Jeanny was indeed aggressive when she attacked. It's just that she was too polite to go all out right from the start unless the opponent riled her up, as it happened on her first tournament match and the one with her sister.

Seeing Jeanny was just waiting with a ready stance. Rodney decided to deliver the first strike. He lunged forward with his hammer swinging.

Jeanny thrust. The tip of her spear hit the shaft of Rodney's hammer. The impact threw Rodney back. Jeanny's stance was steady.
