The villagers always displayed a humble attitude toward practitioners. If they could catch a practitioner’s eye, maybe they would be given an opportunity. When Philip and Fennel entered the diner, the waiter quickly greeted them and served them courteously. “Your order is served!” The waiter served their food and backed away. He knew that practitioners did not like being disturbed by ordinary people. However, Philip stopped him when he was about to leave. “Buddy, can you tell us more about the current affairs of the practice world?” Philip handed a fine piece of jade to the waiter. He was very soft-spoken, obviously not a local. The waiter was surprised and flattered by Philip’s attitude. “You don’t have to do this, sir. I can tell you whatever you want to know!” Even if practitioners ate without paying, no one would dare to say a word. However, this practitioner wanted to give him something for asking a few questions! It was a miracle! A lowly villager like
“The trail ends here. Go and find other information. If he dares to appear in the arena again, find someone to kill him,” Denzel instructed, ready to kill Philip. The guards of the Harrod family nodded and went looking for Philip’s whereabouts. After exploring the cave, Philip decided to follow Fennel to the arena again. He wanted some powerful opponents this time. The opponents who could be defeated easily made no difference to Philip at all. He could only benefit from the fight against powerful people. A pseudo other shore! Philip wanted to face someone of the pseudo other shore level. Fighting a half-step to the other shore was no problem for Philip now. Going one level up was the key to improving himself. Philip and Fennel returned the same way and happened to pass by the diner where they visited earlier. It did not look any different from before, but Philip smelled a hint of blood. He opened the diner door and saw a litter of corpses. The waiter and the cooks
Everyone was dumbfounded and at a loss of how to react. Fennel looked at Philip with pride in his eyes. He knew that this good buddy of his had always been an extraordinary person. Whether it was the present or the future, Philip was a man who could stand at the top of the world and look down on everything. Even Philip had to admit that this world had changed. A guy who was a half-step to the other shore actually used a magic weapon to disguise himself as a pseudo other shore. Most importantly, he was so weak! Were all the people in the reclusive practice world so weak? Terence and Denzel stood up from their chairs in disbelief. They exchanged a glance as if they had seen something terrifying. Denzel's unwavering desire to kill Philip changed in an instant. Before this, he thought that Philip was too arrogant and that Philip's death meant nothing. However, he now thought that Philip had the capability to be so arrogant. If Denzel could fight beyond his level,
If Philip was unwilling to obey Denzel, he would be killed! So what if Philip was strong enough to fight beyond his level? He definitely could not withstand being attacked by a group of powerful people! Denzel could deploy many powerful people to deal with Philip easily. Terence was relieved to hear that. He had been afraid that his uncle would force him to do something he did not want. With that solution in hand, Terence could simply tell Denzel that Philip was unwilling to comply. However, Terence still had to do what he had to do. He dejectedly arranged a few more fights for Philip just to see how strong he could be. Terence would approach Philip if he survived the next few rounds! Sure enough, Philip defeated his opponents one after another and soon reached the final round. However, Terence could tell that Philip was having a hard time. He beheaded his opponent with one swing of his sword in the first round, but it took him a while to defeat his opponent now.
Philip’s interest was suddenly piqued by this guy’s reaction. “Do I know you? Why are you so angry with me? Did I steal your girlfriend or something?” Everyone laughed at Philip's remarks, and the practitioner fumed. “I staked everything I had that you’d lose, but you won against all odds and made me lose everything! My girlfriend dumped me because I’m broke now! This is all because of you!” He glared at Philip as if he wanted to swallow Philip in one gulp. “Gambling is a risky business. You should be careful when placing your bets!” Philip said nonchalantly. In his opinion, this guy was not right in the head. How could he blame Philip for placing the wrong bets? “I’m surprised that a practitioner of your level would be anxious about finding a wife,” Philip said casually. Since the other party was willing to give him time to recover his energy, he would not waste it. The opponent would not expect that Philip would take this opportunity to recover more than half of h
“If he can beat this guy, his future will be limitless. We have to recruit him into the family!” Denzel kept muttering under his breath, and Terence’s scowl turned darker. He was the talent of the family, but his uncle kept focusing on that loser. Denzel went to great lengths to acquire this arena, and Terence took advantage of this opportunity to recruit many people to join the family. Everyone addressed him respectfully as 'Young Sir', and they knew that they were the lucky ones chosen by the Harrod family. Hence, Terence treated them with an air of superiority too. How could Terence accept such a misfit into the family? While Terence’s thoughts ran wild, Philip’s fight was heating up. The audience was shocked that Philip could last this long. It had been more than ten minutes, but Philip was still fighting tenaciously. Although Philip seemed very tired and his moves were weak, his opponent was no better. He attacked Philip aggressively at first, but his offense
Philip was wary and knew he had to be careful in this domain. “Haha, you have no way to escape in my domain!” The other guy was very triumphant as if he was sure to win. Philip closed his eyes and explored the rules of this space. This energy felt familiar to him, which was similar to the one in the Verge Tower space. However, his strength had not reached the level to comprehend this power yet. Now that he was trapped in this domain, Philip could try to master this power. Philip tried to control his power of the laws. Although it was a bit difficult, Philip could still attempt something. Half an hour later, Philip was sweating profusely. He popped numerous pills into his mouth to quickly regain his energy. Sure enough, not everyone could master the mighty power of the laws beyond their level. Fortunately, Philip was no ordinary character. Within half an hour, he managed to correspond with the power of the laws and master it proficiently. Meanwhile, Philip’s op
Philip studied his domain and used it to torment his opponent. The spectators were dumbfounded when they realized that a person at Philip's level managed to discover his domain. “What? Isn’t he in the seventh zone?” “That’s right. Someone with his capability can't possibly discover the domain, but he did it!” Everyone grimaced. They underestimated Philip too much. If Philip really managed to comprehend his domain at such a critical moment on his own at his level in the seventh zone, he must be very talented. Fennel stared at Philip with pride and excitement, his expression no longer stoic. It kept changing with Philip's every move. Terence and Denzel were stunned. Terence never dreamed that Philip could deal with such an expert, but Denzel's thoughts were different from Terence's. Denzel wished that he could grab hold of Philip. They had to cherish such an expert, who would be highly respected in the family. Denzel already had plans to take Philip under his wing.
