Bam and Jager's consecutive defeats catapulted Guding to instant fame, elevating him from a nobody to a household name throughout Ula City.
As a philosopher in the history of interstellar navigation once said, "To judge a person's identity and status, we only need to look at the kind of friends he makes; and to judge what achievements a person can reach, we need to look at the kind of opponents he has."
Bam and Jager, without a doubt, were two very good opponents, making the name "Gulot" thoroughly renowned.
Guding, as he wished, secured a spot in the preliminaries, and over the next few days, he watched the ongoing matches of others.
It wasn't until three days later that all the competitions finally concluded, and Guding had watched every match from start to finish.
Jager naturally obtained a spot, too, with his soul strength putting him at a Quasi True God level, he had no other opponents but Guding.
As for Bam, City Lord Capson granted him a spot.
