Hale? Was he related to Fitzgerald Hale from the Nonagon? “The Hale family from the district capital? I’ll help.” Since it was led by someone from the Hale family, Philip did not mind meeting him to see if he was connected to the person in the Nonagon. “Thank you, Young Master Clarke. It's best if you can help. There are not many rules for the tournament. Each side can send two people and the number of wins will determine the final outcome…” Troy rambled about the rules of the tournament but Philip did not pay attention at all. The so-called rules were fleeting clouds to Philip. “So, Young Master Clarke, to be on the safe side, can you arrange for two experts?” Troy asked cautiously. “There’s no need to make it so troublesome. You can send one person and let me take the other spot,” Philip said domineeringly. Troy was stunned and stared at Philip, speechless. Was Young Master Clarke going to fight in the ring? What if something happened to him? Troy imagined the s
Philip frowned, looked at the burly man standing at the door, and said with a sneer, “You’ll see who’ll die later.” “Hahaha, what did you say?” The man’s face was full of laughter. “You’re really funny. How powerful do you think you are? Not to mention those tough people in the ring, but I bet you can’t even beat me. I’m just reminding you not to seek death, but you don’t even understand simple words.” Troy was a little nervous, worried that Philip would fight with the other party. He said in a low voice, “Let’s go in.” Philip nodded slightly and followed Troy and Bert to the stadium. “Pah!” The burly man spat. With his arms akimbo, he followed them to the stadium while muttering, “Let's see how you'll get killed later, huh?” Philip and his party entered the venue. The arena's moving spotlights immediately shone on them. The three squinted and raised their arms to shield themselves from the blinding glare. “Oh, Troy Crow, you really dare to show up. I thought you were s
Bert Cress raised his brows and said loudly, “Master Crow, let me go first. I'll make a good head start in this match!” After saying that, Bert quickly ran to the ring in the arena. When he reached the ring, he did a body flip to get onto the stage. Although Bert was not an expert, he had practiced martial arts for several years. However, due to a lack of talent, his achievements were also limited. “Hehe, how dare he come here and show off with just a few moves? As expected of a country bumpkin. Rhino, go ahead. Make it clean.” Rhino took off the robe he was wearing, revealing his bulging muscles. After two steps, he jumped over a distance of more than ten meters and landed firmly on the ring. Troy’s blood ran cold at this sight. Just this scene alone was ten times flashier than Bert’s. “Young Master Clarke, you… should give up,” Troy said in a low voice. “He’s just a bogus fighter. Are you intimidated?” Philip turned around and asked. Troy was silent. He really was a l
Rhino’s signature program was breaking the opponent’s skull, causing blood and brain to spew. At this moment, seeing an ordinary person with an ordinary size, an ordinary pace, and seemingly zero combat skills like Philip on stage, Rhino was already a little impatient. The melodious ringtone of a mobile phone rang, stalling the solemn atmosphere. Rhino looked at Philip, who took out his mobile phone from his pocket, in astonishment. Rhino’s expression was full of anger. Bringing a phone into the ring was bad enough, but Philip even dared to bring it out and answer the call. Was he looking down on Rhino or what? Rhino was so annoyed that his eyes were about to spew fire. Willis was stunned for a moment and said with a sneer, “This kid is really courting death. He still dares to take out his phone when he’s in the ring. Does he know that as soon as he gets into the ring, it means that the fight has already started?” “Haha, Willis, you think too highly of these country folks.
“Do you want to stop my punch? Wishful thinking!” Boom! With the sound of the collision, Rhino’s face distorted and scrunched up together. He looked like a bulldog. His fist was stopped by Philip's palm, which grabbed most of Rhino’s fist. His five fingers slowly exerted force, making Rhino’s ironclad fist creak. Rhino’s bones, which were harder than stone, were being crushed by Philip. “You… You!” Rhino broke out in a cold sweat as all the muscles in his body shook because of the pain. “What? You interrupted the conversation with my wife and made me very upset.” Philip spoke calmly, and the strength in his hand suddenly increased. With a crunching sound, Rhino's entire fist was crushed into mincemeat. Shards of bone mixed with flesh and blood splashed everywhere. “Argh! I… Oof!” Before Rhino finished cursing, he was kicked in the abdomen by Philip. Rhino flew into the air and spat a mouthful of blood. His angry eyes gradually lost their luster. Thud! Rhino land
Master Tanner smiled and glanced at the angry Master Fay. “Old Fay, don’t be angry. Rhino died for a good cause. Just give him a proper burial and let my men take revenge for him. “I recently recruited Chad, an expert in Muay Thai. He has won 30 consecutive victories in underground boxing competitions abroad. He’s more than enough to deal with this kid.” A brawny man with bronzed skin and a naked upper body in big pants walked out from behind Master Tanner. Chad had practiced Muay Thai under the guidance of an older generation of Muay Thai champions. He had been fighting in underground boxing fights since he was 16. Now that ten years had passed, Chad had become the king of the underground boxing arena. Countless of his opponents had been killed in the ring. Chad’s eyes were vicious like a viper, and he grinned sinisterly. “Master Tanner, I’ll break every bone in his body.” “Hahaha, good. Fight well to relieve some of Master Fay’s frustrations,” Master Tanner said with a
Hiss! Master Tanner gasped aloud, his brows wrinkling from tension. Willis frowned. and the fingers of his right hand kept tapping on the armrest of the sofa, which was his habit whenever he was nervous. Master Fay shook his head, thinking that it was time for someone to accompany him. He was not the only one who would suffer humiliation today, and it felt somewhat good to have someone share his plight. Troy’s heart settled, and his last worry was gone. He felt that Philip was like a divine soldier and would definitely achieve the final victory. Philip’s middle finger was pointed between Chad’s eyebrows but the scene that Chad had imagined of Philip’s middle finger piercing directly into his skull did not happen. Philip’s middle finger was just gently pointed in the space between his eyebrows. There was no pain or itchiness. There was no strange feeling either. Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Everyone looked at Philip's middle finger and Chad’s brows as if they
Master Willow was not an ordinary person but a disciple of the first zone behind the Nonagon. However, he was eliminated not long after. Despite that, as someone who had entered the door, his strength was still prominent. With some marketing, he had become a so-called master. Ron and Hood walked slowly into the ring and stood on either side of Philip. “You’re the first person with the guts to challenge us. In a moment, you’ll taste the power of our combined attack technique, so you can die in peace after that.” Ron, who had a fair face, said coldly. Facing an opponent like Philip, Ron and Hood dared not take him lightly. After all, Philip had already shown his strength just now. “Stop dallying like a woman and hurry up with your attacks.” Philip urged impatiently. He naturally saw the difference in these two but they did not seem to transcend the secular world. As a Dragon Warrior, Philip still had the confidence to deal with them. “Go to hell!” Hood roared, leaned
Moray used to be a rational person, but things were different now. With Tom adding fuel to the fire and coupled with his daughter’s attitude, Moray lost his temper. He could not tolerate Philip's existence anymore. He felt as if Philip was going to snatch Marina away, which annoyed him. Due to his dignity, however, he simply advised Marina not to be so stupid. “How do you know that Philip is the person you know? With demons running rampant, their methods are unpredictable. They could even disguise themselves as elves. What else can stop them?” Tom could not bear it any longer and spoke up. He did not expect that Moray was so bad at convincing his daughter. It would be bad if Marina convinced Moray instead. “What do you mean? Are you saying that Philip has been possessed by a demon? Or is this Philip not the person we know?” Marina’s expression changed slightly. Tom had a certain say in this matter because they returned from Philip’s world together and received help from P
Moray scowled. He did not expect Philip to be right. It was dangerous ahead. He felt embarrassed by his earlier outburst. “Hehe, even if it’s dangerous, that’s no reason to stop. We should…” Marina was angry at her father’s shameful behavior. She wanted Philip to meet her father and have a good chat, but so many things happened instead. “That’s enough. Stop talking. It’s your mistake this time. They told you about the danger ahead, but you insisted on going there anyway. You’re causing trouble on purpose!” Marina was very angry and went to Philip’s side as if she was going to take his side. Tom looked at this scene with jealousy and resentment. Marina trusted Philip more because of this incident. He had made things worse. Philip ignored their internal conflict. He simply found them annoying. He would not object if they wanted to stop the cooperation. “Philip, I heard that the fish creatures have a treasure that allows them to survive in this harsh environment. Maybe we ca
Loony looked at the merfolk with disdain. Before this, he always thought that the merfolk were smart and beautiful creatures, but reality proved that they were stupid. “Sure enough, only birds of a feather can flock together. Only humans can work together,” Loony said in dissatisfaction. He had always been known as a lunatic, so he did not have to watch his words. Aslan stepped forward on behalf of the monster beasts. “You can't say that. You can criticize the merfolk, but don’t get us involved. We’re loyal to Philip.” Moray was angry at their rebuke and wanted to teach Philip a lesson. “You need to decide quickly. We’re about to arrive. Do you want to give up now? That doesn’t make sense. If you’re a man, you need to take action. Don't let me look down on you.” Moray’s tone was condescending, putting on an air of superiority. “Indeed, I don’t dare to take the risk. Why don’t you take the lead?” Philip said with a smile. He did not take the bait because he did not care ab
Aslan wiped the mud off his body in annoyance. The mud was very sticky, and no one could avoid it. Aslan was disgusted and cursed the fish creatures to hell and back. “Philip, I feel something is wrong ahead. Is it an ambush?” Black Rabbit looked at Philip nervously. He felt something was not right. Philip was surprised by Black Rabbit’s keen senses and wondered what was going on. “Just speak your mind. There’s no need to hold back. We’re on the same side,” Philip said. Black Rabbit nodded and pointed up ahead. “I feel that there’s something wrong with that place. I think someone has set up a barrier to trap us.” Although Black Rabbit had no special ability, he had very keen senses. If he sensed something wrong, they should check it out. Rabbit joined the discussion. Although he hated Black Rabbit, he had to admit that he was capable. “Black Rabbit has a great perception of danger that's much stronger than that of ordinary practitioners.” Everyone stopped and pondered
Tom felt conflicted. If Philip was interested in the pearl, maybe he could help Philip in exchange for the method that helped Katie become stronger. Tom yearned for strength. He had the opportunity to become Marina's personal guard because of his strength. However, he was not the strongest. All the strongest beings had been sent to the battlefield to fight for the family. He wanted to become so strong that he could easily overcome all problems. Everyone in the family would beg for his help if he became the strongest person. They would seek his help to get rid of the fish creatures instead of relying on an outsider to solve the crisis for them. As Marina's personal bodyguard, Tom had had a crush on Marina for a long time now. How could any man resist such a beautiful woman? Marina had always been a pure-hearted woman who never admired any man, but she fell in love with Philip at first sight. Tom was upset about it but could do nothing at the thought of his identity. Therefor
Katie was not a talkative person, so everyone who knew her did not expect her to exude much presence. Tom smiled and approached Katie to talk to her. “Hey, it’s been a while. Did you miss me?” Tom said excitedly. He felt emotional at the thought of Katie saving him. The chief looked at Tom unhappily, surprised that he was involved with a human woman. It was such a mess that he wondered what was going on. Katie lowered her head and responded shyly. Tom noticed that Katie had become very powerful. She was no longer an ordinary human. From Katie's walking posture and various indications, Katie was a powerful practitioner. She was even better than him. Moreover, she had a divine body. Tom looked expectant. Although Tom had a divine body too, he could not improve so quickly with his talent and strength. Philip must have groomed Katie with care for her to improve so quickly. Katie’s talent was obvious at a glance. She was not that good, but she was already on par with h
Rodney was about to have a mental breakdown. Elf water was so valuable that everyone would use it sparingly for fear of accidentally wasting it, but these people used it as bath water. “It’s none of your business, but we do have some leftover bath water over there. Although its effect has diminished, we can use it to water the flowers to make them grow well.” Elf water would lose most of its effects after bathing in it, but the powerful energy still existed, so using it to water flowers was a good choice. Normal people would never think of using it to water flowers. Rodney was almost going crazy. Although Akash felt that it was a waste too, Philip had bought the elf water at a high price, so he had the freedom to do whatever he wanted with it. “This is ridiculous. We’re talking about precious elf water. How could you waste it like this?” Rodney was shaking in anger. He wished he could kill Philip and show this wasteful person how powerful he was. “Tell your elves not to c
“Do you think no one heard when you threatened me just now? Humans are not as stupid as demons.” Loony flicked Rodney’s forehead, causing Rodney to grimace in pain. “Why did you sneak in to be around me? I don’t think I have anything that attracts demons,” Philip said curiously. Indeed, he wondered what brought the demons here. Hearing that, Rodney struggled hard, but Philip easily controlled him. Philip only tied his hands, but Rodney had already lost all ability to fight. His energy core had been sealed. No matter how hard he tried to break free and attack Philip, he failed to do it. “Don't try to break the barrier I put on you or you’ll self-combust and die.” Philip was amused by Rodney’s futile attempts to break free. “You!” Rodney knew that he was in trouble this time. He never thought that Philip would be so strong. He had been very confident that he could sneak his people into Philip’s team if Akash did not return in time and Philip would end up under his control.
Philip and the others knew what was going on, but they pretended to be surprised. The merfolk were really confused and wondered what was going on. Everyone looked at Akash standing at the door and then at 'Akash' standing not far away, baffled. “What’s going on? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?” “I see two Akash in front of me. What does it mean? Is one Akash fake?” They caught a strong scent of demons on the real Akash. It was planned in advance. Rodney deliberately left a strong scent of demons on the real Akash so that no one could tell what was going on. Everyone was doubtful and subconsciously thought that the Akash at the door was fake. Marina ran to Philip's side in confusion. “Philip, what’s going on? Is there a real and fake Akash? This is weird.” Marina did not know Akash, but she knew Philip brought Akash along, so Philip should know what was going on. “You two should know who is real and who is fake,” Philip said with a smile without answering Marina's
