“Sure enough, ignorance is bliss. This newbie has no idea what’s waiting for him.” “Lyle is quite powerful, but I’m afraid that’s the end of the road for him.” “I wonder what those people will do to him. I know that person in charge. I heard that he went to another continent recently and will probably be back soon!” Philip overheard everyone’s comments as they spoke. His guess was right. With Lyle’s quick temper, he would never give the other party a chance. “That guy was so lousy. I’ve never seen such a loser before.” Lyle shrugged helplessly, but he was excitedly waiting for his next round. Otto was worried and wanted to remind Philip. “Philip, to be honest, that guy is a force to be reckoned with. I’ve heard of his relative. It seems that he has a high status and is very protective of his people. I’m afraid that this time…” He glanced at Lyle and hesitated to carry on. Philip asked Otto to speak his mind. “I’m afraid your people will be in trouble for messing wit
Otto’s apprentice had always kept a low profile and never revealed his identity to the public, so Deadly Arena thought that he was just an ordinary guy. His fate was sealed because he tried to make money here without any power to support him. “My apprentice ended up dead because of that wicked conspiracy, and his family members also died because they didn’t receive treatment in time. I wasn’t aware of it at that time. By the time I found out, it was too late!” Otto was helpless and regretful. “That guy is simply disgusting. It’s good that Lyle sought justice for you.” Philip nodded with satisfaction. Lyle had done something right. Otto looked at Philip, shocked by his reaction. Philip was not scared of the person in charge at all. “Aren’t you afraid that he’ll come after Lyle?” Otto glanced at the jubilant Lyle and felt that they should do something about it. Philip nodded calmly. “It’s just a small matter, nothing to be afraid of.” At this time, Lyle urged Philip to
Although everyone was shocked by Lyle's performance, they knew he would not live long. Messing with the people behind Deadly Arena was simply ridiculous. “Hurry up and place your bets. I have a feeling that this rookie will lose the match.” The bet started again, and Philip's eyes flashed with anticipation. He knew that it was time for him to make a fortune. Lyle and the others quickly placed their bets. They knew that Philip would never lose the match, so they were ready to make a fortune. Most people chose his opponent. They knew that Philip would never win. A young man in a bodysuit with no expression on his face approached Philip quickly. He looked very fierce, just like a beast. Philip stood in the arena and looked around silently. He felt a little excited instead of nervous. He had enough confidence and believed that he could stand out from the crowd. The young man in black looked about the same age as Lyle. He was not tall and seemed a little malnourished, but he w
It would be perfect if Dane caught anyone’s eye. Therefore, not only did he have to defeat Philip but also win openly. More importantly, he had to display his strong abilities and show the guilds that he was the best candidate to become their member. Thinking of this, he looked at Philip with a strong fighting spirit. “Let’s cut to the chase. Since you don't want to choose, I’ll do it for you.” Hearing no response from Philip, Dane swung his sword and attacked Philip. Countless black shadows appeared on the spot and attacked Philip. Philip was surprised to sense Dane’s powerful strength. He was very aggressive and used such a powerful move right at the start. In fact, Dane usually preferred to use various methods to slowly torture the opponent instead of his strongest deadly move like this. To show off his strength this time, however, he was ready to take down his opponent in one move. Philip felt this display and smiled. He knew that the person in front of him should not
Everyone looked at the arena with curiosity and interest. “The guy who just went onto the arena is quite powerful. There’s definitely more to him than meets the eye. You should keep a close eye on him.” An old man in a hidden viewing platform spoke with satisfaction. He pointed at Philip expectantly as if he had high hopes in him. Many old men around turned their attention to Philip too. “Indeed, he’s the strongest contender I’ve seen so far. He’s so fast that he can probably kill Dane in seconds.” “Yes, I have a feeling that he has many tricks up his sleeve. He wouldn’t have done this without the skills to back him up.” “You guys have been fooled by this kid. He can’t be that good or he wouldn’t be wasting his time here. Isn’t it easier to kill Dane?” Everyone had different opinions and bickered incessantly. Some people thought Philip was good and worth considering while others thought he was a loser. Meanwhile, the two contenders on stage were running around the arena
“I was smart enough to hold back on the bet this time, so I didn’t lose too much money.” “You’re lucky. I put in everything I had, but this is the result. I’m so unlucky.” Everyone spoke about it and wondered if they should employ a different method in the next round of bets. Some people even suspected that this was a ploy staged by Deadly Arena to cheat some money out of them. “Why would they stage this? They can’t be that bold.” “Philip will definitely encounter various opponents next, and he’ll lose for sure, so we don’t have to worry about it.” They knew what to do next. They just had to place their bets well. Many people had mixed opinions about Philip. Most of them simply thought that Philip was just lucky. “Young man, it’s good enough that you can beat Dane, but you’ll be facing stronger opponents if you want to continue fighting. Why don’t you take a break before fighting again?” the host said nervously. He thought Philip was quite good. Philip waved his hand.
Seeing Philip winning one match after another, the old men on the viewing platform were in horrified disbelief. “How could this happen? Why is he so strong? This is unbelievable.” “We need to give him stronger opponents. We can’t let him win again. Our reputation will be affected at this rate.” Several old men quickly came up with a plan to stop Philip at all costs. In Deadly Arena, Philip stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the people around him. Everyone stared at Philip nervously without a word. Dozens of meters away, the arrogant guy howled in misery. He had been seriously injured. All the bones in his body were broken, and some bones protruded at the joints. He was horrified. He could not figure out how Philip was strong enough to beat him into this state with one punch. Even the strongest opponent he had ever met could not achieve this. The old men on the hidden viewing platform discussed this matter. They knew that something very important might ha
Philip stood in the arena calmly. He knew he had made a lot of money. Many people would place their bets on him next, but Philip was unfazed. With his strength, it would be difficult to lose the match. Strong practitioners like him were rare, few and far between. These people’s techniques and practice levels could not hold a candle to him. It was a pointless fight. Philip simply wanted to experience this feeling. Besides, he had to make the list if he wanted to make a name for himself. Otherwise, everyone would look down on him, which was not a good feeling. Philip refused to take a break but requested for the next round. That arrogant attitude was admirable. Everyone wished they could choose opponents as arrogantly as Philip too. Very soon, a person flew into the arena. The temperature in the arena dropped sharply and became freezing. Philip was surprised to see such a talent. “This is interesting. The people of Deadly Arena attached so much importance to my third figh
“You’re right. The mermaid is such a mysterious creature. How can anyone cure its poison?” Stanley smiled wryly, feeling sorry for himself. “Philip, you have to find a way to save my father. I’ll do anything for you if you can save him!” Yule grabbed Philip’s shoulders with agitation. He begged Philip and almost knelt at his feet. In Yule's opinion, Philip was an omnipotent and powerful existence. There was nothing he could not do. Likewise, Aslan and the others shared the same thought. Therefore, they were surprised when Philip said that he could not save Stanley. Philip sighed. In the past, he had been to places of a lower civilization where the natives were not very strong. He could do whatever he wanted and no one could do much to him even if they wanted to. However, Philip was not familiar with places of a higher civilization. Even Rabbit only knew a little and was hesitant to speak. Hence, Philip was not confident he could save Stanley. “Maybe that creature came fro
“Let’s stop making wild guesses and wait for Yule's father to explain. This creature doesn’t belong to this continent, so no one knows what’s going on.” Philip reached out and gently touched the scales in amazement. He felt that something was wrong with this mermaid. With that touch, he found that the mermaid’s scales were better than those of a dragon. Philip once found a dragon scale by chance, but the dragon scale was not as tough as the mermaid's scales. Moreover, the mermaid's scales could change into various shapes, which was amazing. “If the scales are used to make a weapon, it’ll definitely be the best treasure. Not only can it attack and defend, but also…” Before Philip could finish his words, he heard Yule's father coughing violently. He seemed in pretty bad shape. “Rascal, go and look at the fish. She’s not an ordinary fish but a mermaid I found by chance! According to ancient records, there are many similar creatures in the world of the gods, and they're a force
Almost everyone knew about the condition of Yule's father, and most of them were there to watch the fun. When Yule and the others appeared, some people could not wait to start taunting him. “Oh, you’re such a good son. Your father is already in this state, but you’re still in the mood to fool around outside. You should start preparing for your father’s wake!” “The miracle doctor has given a diagnosis, saying that your father has only a few more days to live. Stop wasting time and start preparing for the funeral!” Everyone mocked Yule, who was respected simply because of his father’s position. Now that Yule's father was dying, no one wanted to show him that respect anymore. Some people even planned to steal things from Yule’s house! With no one else to back him up, everyone thought that Yule did not deserve to stay in that luxurious house anymore. Hearing everyone’s taunts, Yule was so angry that he trembled all over, but now was no time to argue. He had to find out his fath
Very soon, everyone left the King’s Ruins. Philip had taken care of the danger, so they just had to collect the treasures. Yule and his team were grateful to Philip and flattered him along the way. After all, they would not have been able to leave the place alive so easily if not for Philip. The King’s Ruins were still dangerous even though they did not face any monsters head-on. They knew they managed to avoid most dangers because of Philip. At this moment, Yule’s communicator vibrated. Only his close family members had his contact, so Yule immediately felt a bad premonition. He walked to the corner with the communicator and spoke anxiously. It seemed that he had encountered some big trouble. Philip waited for Yule to return to the team without a word. Ten minutes later, Yule returned to the team. He looked very depressed as if he had encountered a big problem. Philip noticed his reaction but did not take the initiative to approach him. He knew that Yule would approach h
“Philip, look, I solved half the problem for you. The rest is up to you.” After saying this, Yule laughed triumphantly, blatantly disregarding Mason’s cold glare. Mason frowned and looked at Philip with apprehension. He could not verify Philip’s story, but if Philip was telling the truth, he would have lost the bet again. “Get out of our sight. We've wasted a lot of time because of you. Don't blame us for attacking you if you stay here any longer!” Aslan had a hot temper and kicked Mason when he noticed Mason's hesitance. Mason fell to the ground miserably and looked at Philip with murderous intent. “Let’s go and stop wasting our time here!” After saying this, Mason took the lead and ran away, unwilling to stay here a second longer. Philip’s strong power deterred him greatly, and Philip was not afraid of Sienna at all, which crushed Mason’s final confidence. Mason was best at using other people’s influence, but it was on the premise that others were willing to bow down to
Mason frowned at Aslan but did not respond. Philip said, “This guy has become Sienna’s underling. He’s here to find the Binary Herb for Sienna, which coincides with our purpose. Now, he wants me to hand it over or he’ll ask Sienna to kill me. I’m very scared,” Philip said sarcastically and could hardly contain his laughter. Hearing that, everyone was startled before bursting into laughter. They had been with Philip through thick and thin, so they knew who Sienna was. “No way, this guy is using Sienna to threaten Philip. Is he kidding?” “I’m sure he’ll be scared out of his wits if he finds out what really happened. This is ridiculous.” Philip’s men scoffed at Mason’s arrogance. Yule’s men were puzzled, wondering what was going on. “Before this, Philip almost killed a snake monster named Sienna. Unexpectedly, the snake monster escaped and found herself a human servant. On top of that, this human servant thinks so highly of himself as if he's very proud of his identity.” L
“Go and grab that thing for me. We have to get hold of it! Don’t let that guy steal our treasure. And remember to find the thing I want!” Mason ordered his men in a panic. Mason was startled by Philip’s speed of collecting things. Everyone quickly sprang into action. They were not fools. They would be penalized if they did not get things done. They raced against time to grab the treasures from Philip, but Philip was unfazed. He knew that all the treasures would fall into his hands in the end. Besides, the piles of treasures simply contained some pills and other stuff, nothing much. “Sir, we didn’t find the Binary Herb.” At this time, someone stepped forward to report their findings. Everyone was anxious when they realized they could not find the most important Binary Herb. Mason scowled at the bad news. “Impossible. The Binary Herb must be around somewhere.” The location of the Binary Herb was marked on his map. It had to be nearby. Mason looked around with the map
“Of course, an ignorant guy like you wouldn’t know what’s going on. This place is full of danger and had a powerful monster as a guardian. You don’t know anything because you’re unworthy.” Mason jerked his chin smugly, clearly proud that he knew some inside information. “If you beg me, I’ll consider going with you to deal with this monster.” In Mason’s opinion, Philip was no match for this monster. The bloodstains had to be from some weak monsters killed by Philip. According to his understanding, the legendary guardian snake monster was very powerful, not something ordinary people could deal with. “Don't you know why you’re here?” Philip said smugly. He knew that Mason was nothing but a pawn. Philip had seen through everything and was full of scorn for Mason’s nature. Mason was horrified that Philip knew him so well. “How did you know? I've been keeping this secret very well. No one should know about it. Did that snake woman tell you? That's impossible. She hates you very
Seeing this scene, Rabbit applauded excitedly. “You must be dreaming if you think you can fight Philip!” Rabbit said excitedly. Philip quickly killed the snake. He was surprised to find that the snake only had half of its body. He thought half of the snake was trapped in the stone, but it only had half a body left. “Did it grow from the stone?” Rabbit was shocked, wondering what was going on. “Something is wrong with this monster beast. It’s actually growing from the stone. How strange!” Philip was surprised by the strange discovery. “Indeed. It looks very strange, not like a good guy at all.” Rabbit was horrified and felt that the snake was more than met the eye. “Philip, look at this. Is it a description of this monster beast?” Rabbit looked at a huge stone tablet on the side in puzzlement. “Philip, look, I think this snake has something to do with that snake woman!” Rabbit was surprised to see what was written on the stone tablet and pulled Philip over for a look. The
