Philip frowned when he saw the third elder standing in front of him, wondering what this old man was up to. These people treated him very nicely when they begged him to sell them some charms the other day. “I just want to ask if you found anything at the training ground.” As a person with a strong sense of intuition, the third elder felt that Philip was more than met the eye. Philip was the last person to be kicked out, so he might be keeping a secret. Philip simply smiled and nodded. He would never tell them the truth, though. They had no right to know. Aslan said from behind Philip, “Stop asking questions you shouldn’t ask. It’s none of your business whether we found anything or not. Don’t forget about the deal between us! “Your part of the deal is to let us in. Even if we get a treasure inside, it's none of your business! “As for what happened inside, you should ask your people. If they couldn’t find anything good, what makes you think we’re any better?” Of course,
The guild leader had to think of a way to please Philip, but the other two guilds had already set their sights on Philip. He had been in frequent contact with the Spada Guild recently, so the other two major guilds were curious about Philip’s identity. After investigation, they found that Philip's identity was not a big deal. In fact, he held a grudge against the Spada Guild. One of the most powerful guilds was the Melee Guild. This powerful guild was at the top of the list. More importantly, everyone in this guild was highly disciplined. They had good reviews everywhere, and no one had anything bad to say about them. They would rather curse the guilds that had done many bad deeds. The Melee Guild always sent their members to get rid of bandits and often performed good deeds. The Melee Guild had always been unhappy with the Spada Guild. They often warned the Spada Guild not to oppress others. However, the Spada Guild was shameless and often oppressed the people under thei
Neela was not fully convinced and still felt that Philip was a bad person. Based on the guild leader’s speculation, the Spada Guild probably needed his help or they would never be so kind to an ordinary practitioner. According to their intel, this guy had entered the training ground of the Spada Guild. No outsiders had ever entered the training ground of the Spada Guild before. Philip was obviously an exception, so the leader of the Melee Guild became very curious about Philip's identity. He wanted to know who this capable man was. Moreover, he wanted to know why the disgusting Spada Guild would bow down and use their training ground to please the other party. Philip returned home. As soon as he lay down, he heard someone knocking on the door. Lyle quickly opened the door. His head felt like it was about to burst with everything he had learned recently. More importantly, Declan had gained the upper hand over him. Lyle was usually very proud of gaining the upper hand o
“I think this woman sees us as beggars,” Aslan said to Lyle and closed the door. This woman was so insulting. Bribing him with an energy stone was simply ridiculous! Aslan would not have been so angry if she had given him some food instead. Could money solve the problem? After following Philip, they never lacked money! Neela was shocked by the rejection and scowled darkly. “You!” After much deliberation, Neela chose to climb over the wall. Neela had some skills, after all. It was easy for her to fool two ‘ordinary humans’. There was a rule in the guild that they were not allowed to attack ordinary people. No matter how angry Neela was, she could not attack Aslan and Lyle. In Neela’s opinion, neither Aslan nor Lyle was powerful. After all, there was no energy fluctuation on them, so they were no different from ordinary humans! Aslan and Lyle stepped aside to chat about their findings on the training ground. They were so immersed in the discussion that they did not re
This beautiful new dress was enough to show Neela’s respect for Philip, but he seemed to dislike it. “Are you Philip Clarke?” Neela asked with a frown. Everything could be explained if he was Philip. Only Philip would sound so rude! After all, he was very close with the Spada Guild. How could he be a good person? Neela suddenly thought it was a waste to see Philip in her new dress. “You found the right person. If you want to come in for a chat, put on a jacket.” Philip took out a jacket from his space, tossed it to Neela, and closed the door. Neela stood at the door and felt embarrassed with the jacket in hand. She never thought that she would be treated like this one day! However, Neela finally swallowed her anger and put on the jacket. At the same time, Neela keenly noticed something. Philip was empty-handed, but he conjured a jacket for her out of thin air. What was going on? Did he own storage equipment? If that was the case, Philip was more than met the eye.
“You don’t have to drive me away. I’ll leave after finding the information I want!” Neela pouted at Philip’s reaction. Although Neela was a forthright person, she could tell that Philip was trying to drive her away. Without wasting another second, Neela turned around and left. Now that she had found what she wanted, she had no time to lose. “What’s the deal with that woman? Should we check up on her?” Lyle kept thinking about it and wanted to find out what happened. Aslan sighed helplessly. Since Lyle was so curious, he should not encourage his wild guesses. “As I mentioned, Philip will never have anything to do with that woman. Why don’t you believe me?” Aslan smacked Lyle's head and wanted to have a bet with him. Seeing Aslan’s confidence, Lyle waved his hand. “I never said that I was worried about Philip. I just think that the woman is very strange, so we need to tell Philip about it.” Lyle felt awkward. He was afraid that Philip would misunderstand his intenti
No one would not yearn for that mysterious continent. Lyle never thought his life would become so smooth sailing. With Philip around, he wanted to gain a different experience. Since he was unattached, he could seek some excitement. Seeing Lyle's yearning, Philip decided to test him. He picked up a teacup from the table and threw it at Lyle. His attack was fast and strong. Lyle would definitely be seriously injured if he was hit. Lyle dodged the attack calmly and successfully evaded the danger. “Hehe, Philip, don't try to make things difficult for me. At my level, I can easily avoid this sneak attack!” Lyle was very proud of evading Philip's sneak attack successfully. At this moment, the cup that had been broken into pieces on the floor reassembled and zoomed at Lyle again. Lyle did not notice it in time and dodged awkwardly. “Never drop your guard when you’re caught in a fight. You don't know what your opponent is capable of,” Philip said solemnly. At the same time, h
On top of that, Neela had been forced to put on a weird jacket. Although it looked strange, it was oddly beautiful. More importantly, it was not revealing, and she could move comfortably with it. “Is he a fashion designer? A tailor?” Neela pondered as she walked and quickly arrived at the guild leader’s room. The guild leader did not expect Neela to return so soon. He thought that Neela would be rejected, but it was not the case. “I’m surprised to see you back so soon. How is it? Did you find the information I want to know?” the guild leader asked cautiously and nervously. He knew Neela's character very well. She would definitely talk about her experience next. “That guy’s really not worth mentioning!” Neela shook her head. “Unless he’s so strong that I couldn’t tell his level at all, he’s no more than an ordinary person to me!” The guild leader found it incredulous. The truth could not be that simple. “How could he be an ordinary person? Do you think the people of th
Most people would be freaked out at the sight of his face. He took out a photo from his pocket and held it in his hand angrily. “Argent, you've enjoyed your life long enough. It’s time to get what you deserve.” The mysterious man smiled cruelly with obvious hatred for Argent. This whole incident had nothing to do with Philip at all. Philip was simply a pitiful pawn in these people’s hands. Philip never dreamed that someone would target him for no reason. He just wanted to improve his strength. He could not care less about what other people thought of him.… Time passed quickly. The next day, Philip did not expect these people to come after him so soon. He just wanted to have a good rest and find a suitable place to settle down, but these people were as annoying as pesky flies. “Philip, get out here at once. I want to see how strong you are. How dare you show off in front of me?” Argent yelled at Philip’s door in disdain. His right hand was bandaged tightly as if he was still
The mysterious man forced himself to contain his anger and smile at Argent. Argent knew that he had to stop asking for more. At this point, what was the most important? “I can give you Philip’s address, and we can deal with him tomorrow morning. If you teach him a good lesson, I’m sure he’ll listen to you,” Argent said smugly. His plan was simple. He wanted to use the other party to deal with Philip. Philip had messed with him earlier and crippled his right hand. He would have died if he had not stopped the bleeding in time. Therefore, the grudge between him and Philip was so deep that he could not wait to rip Philip into pieces. Argent and the mysterious man who refused to reveal his name quickly came up with a plan. “In that case, I’ll see you again tomorrow morning. I hope you won't let me down.” After saying this, the mysterious man zoomed into the distance and soon disappeared. Seeing the other party’s hasty retreat, Argent was full of disdain. “Hehe, you think too hig
“Wow, you guys are so generous to send me such a precious gift this time. Tell me more about the deal you want to discuss with me. If it’s up to my expectations, I can consider it.” Argent's mood changed for the better. He smiled brightly and did not consider other possibilities. He seemed to have forgotten the conflict and resentment he had toward Philip. “We know that a young heroic man has appeared in Deadly Arena this time. We’re very interested in him and have decided to recruit him. I heard that you fought him before. I wonder if he's as powerful as I imagined.” The other party did not introduce himself but looked at Argent with a smile. Argent scowled. He thought that this matter was over, but this guy brought it up again. He was obviously trying to belittle him. “Hehe, let’s forget it. I don’t have much of an opinion about Philip. He’s just an average person, nothing worth mentioning.” Argent was afraid of exposing his shame, so he tried to tarnish Philip’s reputati
After confirming that he could leave safely, Argent ran away quickly, unwilling to stay a second longer. Philip was so terrifying that he wanted to keep his distance from him. Argent simply wanted to rob Philip of his treasures, but he was seriously injured instead. He could not accept it. Argent quickly ran back home. He had settled down with his family after such a long time. Given his strength, no one refused his requests. Argent’s family members simply wanted to follow someone strong, so they did not mind doing anything. In the meantime, an uninvited guest appeared at Argent’s home. He did not make an appointment with Argent in advance, so Argent did not know him. When Argent returned home in a mess, they bumped into each other. “I’m surprised to see the head of the family looking so miserable. I’m here at the right time.” The man stared at Argent mockingly as if he was enjoying the show. Argent was annoyed by his reaction, angry that an outsider had seen him in his most mi
Argent felt fear grip him. Philip’s earlier action was terrifying, as if he could grab his soul with a wave of his hand. Philip laughed at Argent’s hasty retreat, amused by his cowardice. “I just wanted to scare you. There's no need to dodge so quickly,” he said with a chuckle. Argent was furious by Philip’s shameless prank. Although he was angry, Argent had to give up his absurd plan when he thought of Philip's strength. Philip was not to be trifled with. He had to watch out. Before he could slip away and mess with Philip another day, Philip grabbed his right hand abruptly, leaving him no time to react. Argent’s right hand lost all sensation as if it had been crippled. He looked down at his right hand in a panic and was shocked to find that his right arm had vanished. “What the hell is going on? How could you do this to me?” He was shocked that Philip could break his defense so easily and cripple him. He was a force to be reckoned with, and not everyone could go against hi
Argent was nothing more than average, but he was so full of himself. Philip felt that he might be inferior to the other party in that aspect. “All the rewards are in my hands. If you really want them, you can try to defeat me and take them away. Otherwise, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to get them with your strength.” Philip smiled at him. Although this guy was quite strong, he was no match for Philip. “I entered the top 100 of the advanced list when I was at your age. You’re nothing to me. Stop showing off in front of me.” A trace of disdain flashed across Argent’s face. He was clearly looking down on Philip. Philip nodded. This old man was very full of himself. His strength was undeniable, but it was nothing compared to Philip’s. “I heard that you don’t belong to a guild. Don't you feel ashamed? It’s a pity that no one is willing to take you in.” Philip smiled brightly. He said this on purpose to snub Argent. Argent was furious to hear Philip mocking him for this. He
After hearing Philip’s remarks, the guy trembled in anger. His name was Argent, nicknamed Silver Snake. He first came into contact with a practice technique when he was a teenager. As he did not know anything, he simply practiced the technique on his own. Unexpectedly, there was a problem with this technique. His height remained what it was in his teens, but his appearance became old. At first, he thought that he would always look like a teenager, but his appearance gradually became old and terrifying. No matter where he went after that, people would treat him as an old man even though he was only in his early 40s. Thinking of this, he felt sorry for himself, and his hatred for Philip deepened. Not only did his appearance change, but his practice level also slowly dropped to rock bottom. His mind gradually became more and more twisted because of this. Then, he stumbled into a cave and received a heritage by chance. The heritage was evil, but it helped him improve his practice
Philip nodded at the other party’s grace. “Not bad, that young man is quite decent.” Even though the other party was a middle-aged man, Philip called him a young man. Philip knew that someone else would approach him very soon. He could use this opportunity to find out more about the force behind the other party. He quickly reserved the inn and wandered around the streets. He wanted to see how many people were following him. Everyone had their own agenda and was up to no good. Philip soon saw a sneaky old man who did not seem to pose any threat. The old man looked at Philip thoughtfully with a hint of ridicule, which gave Philip an unpleasant feeling. “You should know the purpose of my visit. Do I need to elaborate?” the old man cut to the chase. Philip shook his head helplessly at the old man’s arrogance. The old man in front of him was quite powerful or he would not have been so arrogant. He thought he could deal with Philip easily with his strength. “You’re obviousl
Philip was surprised to hear that. “So, my performance was so outstanding that they can't wait to get rid of me.” Philip glanced at Duncan. Since he was not here for his money, there was no problem. Besides, he did not seem like a bad guy. “I have a job to do. I have to fulfill my responsibilities and obligations, so I need to report the situation truthfully.” Duncan knew he could not deal with Philip, so he had to find another way to negotiate with him. “If you promise not to take part in another match, I can consider letting you go for the time being. That way, I can go back and report my findings too.” He did not mention his men whom Philip took down as if they were not important at all. “Of course, I can’t agree to that. This isn’t as simple as you think. The people behind Deadly Arena won’t let me off so easily. Don’t worry about that,” Philip said with a smile. Since he knew that Duncan was from Deadly Arena, there was nothing more to say. Philip knew that Lyle
