Everyone wanted to see Philip being tormented. “It’s your call!” “Hurry up and start the fight. I don’t want to see this scrawny kid!” “How dare this newcomer fool around in this battle arena?” Many people were just here for the excitement. They were not bold enough to participate. Many people were envious of Philip’s courage. A big burly man entered the field, walking a little clumsily like a bear. “Hey kid, are you the one who wants to fight me?” His gruff voice sounded very unpleasant. “Come on, fatty.” Philip did not hold back at all. At the bell, Philip sprang into action and took down the fat man with one move. Everyone was dumbfounded at this scene. They thought Philip would definitely lose this round and even placed bets on it. Unexpectedly, Philip was so powerful and defeated his opponent with one move. Was he really an ordinary person? Everyone looked at Philip apprehensively, regarding him as a dark horse. They might suffer if they did not take
The sexy woman thought that her movements were so fast that no one could see her. However, this motionless man caught her with such precision! How did he restrain her without causing any damage? The sexy woman was surprised and tried to break free from Philip’s control. After all, Philip merely caught her in a chokehold, which did not seem too much of a threat. However, she was obviously too confident about herself. Philip grabbed her neck so tightly that she could not break free at all. The sexy woman panicked and tried to escape with a technique, but she realized that she could not mobilize her energy at all. The opponent seemed to be carrying something that prevented her from using her energy. “A-Are you a freak?” The expression on the sexy woman's face changed from arrogance to despair. She knew she could not beat her opponent. She had killed at least hundreds of people in the arena. This was her first defeat. Was she about to die for no reason? She could
Who was this person? How could he kill a powerful practitioner as if she were an ordinary person? The people who bet that Philip would lose panicked. No one thought that Philip would be so powerful. Philip glanced at the host. He knew that the host was not happy with him. The host trembled with fear at the sight of Philip’s terrifying gaze. “What should we do next?” The host looked at his partner in horror. Although he did not know this man, he felt unusual killing intent from him as if he was sure to die under his hands. Just one look was intimidating enough. The host could not imagine how strong Philip could be. “What else can we do? Hurry up and arrange the strongest opponent for him. We can’t let him walk out of the arena alive!” The two quickly reached an agreement and made a cruel decision. Philip was in the seventh zone, so the strongest opponent they could arrange was a half-step to the other shore, which was more than enough to deal with him. They refused
Denzel sent a guy in the fifth zone into the arena. This guy was watching the battle and was amazed at Philip's strength. Unexpectedly, he was scheduled to fight in the next round. He was very frightened and was just about to refuse when Denzel gave him a stern warning. In desperation, the practitioner had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the field. He just hoped that Philip would spare his life instead of killing him in one move. Philip was thoughtful at the sight of this practitioner in the fifth zone. He thought that the last opponent would be very difficult to deal with, but it turned out to be a person with such a low level. Hence, Philip had some guesses about the organizers of the arena. They did not seem to be good people, but Philip did not want to force the issue. They were clearly trying to get into his good books now, but Philip was not that easy to please. He simply felt that they wanted to recoup some losses after they realized how powerful he wa
Terence made a swiping motion across his neck, indicating his suggestion to get rid of Philip. Denzel looked at Terence unhappily. He did not expect this guy to be so stupid. “This young man has the ability and strength. We can't treat him like that. Instead, we should please him and try to recruit him.” Terence scowled darkly, not expecting to hear that. As a talent of the family, he was unhappy to see someone like Philip. Philip was clearly stronger than him. If Philip joined his family, Terence’s status would drop rapidly. The Harrod family did not value bloodline but individual strength. Core family members would naturally occupy an important position, but many powerful people could take up some important positions too. Only ten young family members would be selected from each generation, while others were made up of outsiders who could contribute to the family. There were many young members in Terence’s generation, and it was a tough competition to select ten peo
Terence felt disdainful that his uncle valued Philip so much, but he quickly contained this emotion. He knew his uncle very well. He would be beaten severely if his uncle got angry with him. Denzel was indifferent to Terence’s promise. He knew that no one could refuse the invitation of the Harrod family. Philip was soon announced as the winner, and everyone cheered. They thought the past few battles were exciting. However, some people rejoiced while others despaired. The people who bet that Philip would lose were very upset. They had thought that the outcome was certain, but they lost miserably. Many people staked everything they had and lost it. Philip shrugged and returned to Fennel’s side. Fennel said with satisfaction, “You did very well. We made a lot of money.” Fennel had placed all his bets on Philip right from the start. In his opinion, Philip would never lose. Sure enough, Philip won every round and made him a great fortune. Since the fight was over, Te
“It’s okay if you don’t know the Harrod family. I can tell you that we're one of the largest families in the reclusive practice world. Unlike other factions and families, we don’t place great importance on the bloodline. In our family, you can rise to the top as long as you're capable.” He laid out all his family's advantages methodically. In Terence's opinion, anyone would be excited to hear this, and no one would let go of this opportunity. Philip waved his hand nonchalantly. “Sorry, I’m not interested.” After saying this, he left with Fennel. He was a little tired from the fights and wanted to have a good meal. Terence was dumbfounded at Philip’s unfazed departure. He could not believe that Philip did not cherish this opportunity. “Wait! Stop!” Terence stood in Philip’s path in a panic, surprised by Philip’s outright rejection. “Are you serious? Do you understand what I’m telling you?” Terence was puzzled and angry over the rejection. He could not figure out why an
Terence nodded and said, “I told him my identity, but he was very arrogant. He said he had never heard of us and even insulted us! The stoic guy next to him was no different. They think they’re very awesome just because they won a few fights!” Denzel was shocked that someone would say such a thing. “Damn it, he’s gone too far. Get someone to capture him. I want to see what gives him the right to say such things!” Terence smiled triumphantly at his uncle’s reaction. He knew that his plan was successful. No matter how angry Terence was, he could not do anything to Philip, especially with Philip's ability to fight beyond his level. However, it was different for Denzel, who was a pseudo other shore. Dealing with Philip would be easy for him. Even if Philip could fight beyond his level, he could not possibly fight at that level. Otherwise, other practitioners would have no chance to survive. Moreover, Denzel valued the family’s reputation highly. If he was informed that Philip
Yule was amazed by the person in the portrait, not expecting to see such a beautiful woman. He was somewhat skeptical after seeing the drawing. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Could it be the other party’s imagination? “Don’t worry, Yule. This woman is definitely real. I have an eye for beauty, so I’d never make a mistake.” Yule nodded at his subordinate's suggestive expression. Even if he was unreliable in other aspects, he would never mess up in this area. He was notorious for hanging out in various entertainment venues and was not a good guy. Yule quickly made copies of the woman’s portrait and spread the news everywhere. He looked forward to meeting this beautiful woman as soon as possible. In the meantime, Aslan finished his meal and walked on the streets idly. Yule stood on the streets, confident that he would find the woman with so many people helping him. “Hey, what's going on? Why is Foxy’s portrait posted everywhere? Has someone discovered he
“No matter what I do next, you and your people just need to go with the flow. If you agree, I’ll do my best to take care of the beast problem immediately. Of course, you don't have to worry about my source of information. My lips are sealed on this topic.” Yule quickly reached an agreement with these people. Then, Yule arrived at a remote house where all his men were hiding. He asked his men to do something unlawful for him, and they entered the beast forest by mistake because they wanted to escape justice, but they ran into Foxy by accident. Foxy realized from birth that she and her kind had a grudge against humans, but she was an inexperienced youngling, after all. She did not know much about humans and failed to notice their ulterior motives. The other party took note of Foxy’s appearance and made a detour back to safety. Yule arrived at his subordinate’s house anxiously. “Tell me everything you know about that person again. I have some information but it’s not compreh
“Let’s do it this way. We can treat this as a test. If he can solve this problem, we’ll give him a chance.” “That’s a good idea. The beasts have always been a thorn in our sides. It’ll be great if we can take care of this once and for all.” “Since he looks so confident, maybe he can really resolve this. We might as well make use of him to get rid of this problem.” “The beasts have been fighting with us for many years. We can save a lot of trouble if this plan succeeds.” Everyone expressed their opinion and seemed very keen to rely on Yule to solve this difficult problem. Ten minutes were soon up, and Yule quickly returned to the room. He looked very relaxed and even had a drink in his hand. “So, gentlemen, are you done with the discussion? Do you have a better suggestion for my future development?” Yule smiled triumphantly, obviously certain of his victory. As he expected, everyone chose to give in. After all, this was not something anyone could do. Yule would be the best
Yule felt very smug after seeing everyone’s reactions. Clearly, these people could only rely on him to take care of this problem. “Since you’re so curious, let me explain. Indeed, someone is controlling the situation behind the scenes. She can easily control the beasts with her ability. However, I don’t know the woman’s identity. Maybe she’s a powerful being or just an ordinary person. Who knows?” Yule's subordinates were the ones who told him what they saw that day. “I know that woman’s appearance, so I know what to do. You don’t have to worry about it.” Everyone glanced at each other with a grim look, wondering if they should believe Yule. After all, Yule knew something they did not. “Hehe, I just wanted to tell you my plans, that’s all.” Yule wanted to take control of the initiative. The elders and people in charge looked worried. They knew exactly what Yule wanted. “I want a certain authority. Of course, it should be higher than my father’s limit. As you know, I’ve al
Compared to the money they earned at Deadly Arena, the accommodation fee was nothing. Therefore, many people chose to stay in the living quarters provided by Deadly Arena and thought the environment was quite good. The people of Deadly Arena knew about the crisis they were facing. Something felt wrong, so they had to pay attention to it. “Don’t you find the beasts acting strangely this time? They didn’t seem interested in our things but simply left after giving us a warning.” “Yeah, I think something is wrong too. There must be a secret behind it. We have to figure it out.” The people in charge of Deadly Arena gathered for a meeting over this major incident. Yule looked at everyone with disdain as if he thought they were worried over nothing. “The beasts obviously recognized our strength, so they backed away. Stop worrying over nothing.” Yule had always thought highly of himself and looked down on everything. Hearing this, everyone scowled and wished they could teach Yule
“Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil
Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an
Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma
On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra
