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
Dodo stood in the arena indifferently and looked at Philip curiously, but that gaze was fleeting and quickly vanished. 'I wonder why the people of Deadly Arena are so scared of this guy that they have to send me to save the situation,' he thought to himself. Dodo's cold eyes flickered as he wondered how strong Philip was. He thought of a possibility. In the vast practice world, many strange things could happen. Many practitioners embarked on the path of practice because of a particular technique or their personal enlightenment. Others were different. Not only did they have various techniques, but they also awakened their ancient bloodline by chance and mastered certain powerful abilities. Philip mastered the five elements because he had awakened such abilities, and almost everyone under Philip’s command had such strength. However, it was almost impossible for ordinary practitioners to awaken such abilities. After looking at the other party, Philip nodded. No wonder he was
Dodo planned to unleash more dragons to surround Philip, but Philip froze the whole platform instead. He would have been seriously hurt if he had not backed away in time. “These dragons of yours are nothing but several worms to me. Since we have the chance to meet today, let me show you what a real ice dragon looks like.” After saying that, a huge dragon appeared between Philip and Dodo. The dragon summoned by Philip was better than Dodo’s dragon in terms of both appearance and size. Dodo saw this scene and quickly unleashed his dragon to meet Philip’s attack. The dragon under Philip’s command became more excited instead of fearful. It roared and swallowed Dodo’s dragon in one gulp, greatly improving its strength in the process. Dodo was dumbfounded by this scene. He never dreamed that Philip could summon a hundred-meter-long ice dragon at will, and the dragon was so powerful too. 'How is this possible? How could he summon such a giant dragon?' Dodo stared at Philip in disb
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
Rabbit was sunbathing in the yard and had no idea what was going on. He had a feeling that someone was setting him up, but he was powerless to resist. “Rabbit.” Philip calmly summoned Rabbit with no indication of his thoughts. Rabbit approached hesitantly and stared at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “Since you know that the Hexa Guild has declared war on us, we can't just sit and wait for things to happen. We have to show them how powerful we are.” Rabbit quickly understood Philip’s meaning. He wanted Rabbit to fight. Rabbit sighed and agreed. After everything Philip had done for him, it was time for Rabbit to take the stage. Philip wanted Rabbit to deal with the other party and do it in a humiliating way to show them that they were beneath a rabbit. “Okay, I know what I should do. Just sit and watch.” Everyone in Petal City knew that Rabbit was Philip's pet, so his actions represented everything. All the guilds kept an eye on the situation as Rabbit w
Philip shrugged at Jamie’s words. “It's just a small matter. Whether you accept the challenge or not, it's not a big deal.” Every guild had to safeguard their dignity. They had to accept the challenge or they would be seen as cowards. Philip smiled. No matter what they decided, he had a bold idea. Jamie nodded thoughtfully at Philip’s words. After some deliberation, he said goodbye to Philip. He knew what he should do. Not long after Jamie left, the news that the Celestial Palace accepted the challenge spread. They adopted a tough stance, criticizing the actions of the Hexa Guild. All the major guilds knew what was going on, but they were surprised that the Celestial Palace was brave enough to make everything public, which was no different from exposing the other party’s crimes. The Hexa Guild finally revealed their true colors. The members were ashamed of being part of the Hexa Guild. The members of the Hexa Guild knew about Lincoln's stance and were worried, wondering
Alain would be doomed if Lincoln ignored him. “No way!” Alain panicked, horrified at this development. The whole guild might be at stake if Lincoln was unwilling to help him. “I've decided not to get involved in this case anymore. Deal with the mess you created yourself. Don’t expect my help.” Lincoln was very decisive about ignoring Alain. Hearing that, everyone was in despair. “Grandmaster, don’t do this to me!” Alain knew that he was doomed. He wanted to persuade Lincoln to help him, but it seemed hopeless. Lincoln waved his hand and turned away, unwilling to lay his eyes on Alain again. In his opinion, the biggest mistake was choosing such a person as the guild leader. It did not make sense for a guild to turn out this way. If Dennis had been in charge, everything would have been different. Left in the room, Hogster and Alain looked at each other, at a loss for what to do. They had thought that Lincoln would solve the problem for them, so they just did whatever th
Alain rushed over to Lincoln to boast about his plan. He knew that Lincoln would be proud of him after hearing it. However, Alain got a slap on his face before he could even speak. He stared at Lincoln blankly, wondering what just happened. “Why did you hit me?” Alain felt embarrassed and sorry for himself. After all, Hogster and many other guild members were around. At his age, it was unacceptable to be slapped in public for no reason. The onlookers backed away in fear, avoiding eye contact with Lincoln. The murderous gaze in Lincoln’s eyes was terrifying. “Why did I hit you? Don't you know why?” Lincoln trembled in anger at Alain’s reaction. This guy had no idea what he did wrong. “I saw Philip just now.” Lincoln stared at Alain, trying to read his thoughts. However, Alain was startled and confused. “In that case, you should've seen how scared he was. That’s what he gets for offending our guild!” Alain was excited and smug at the thought of Philip being scared out of hi
Although everyone was confused, they knew that despite his arrogance, Rabbit would not accuse someone for no reason. “I went out for a walk just now, and everyone is talking about the Hexa Guild declaring war on the Celestial Palace and Philip!” Hearing that, Lincoln nearly passed out. Since everyone was talking about it, it had to be true. He never dreamed that something like this would happen right after he left. “Old man, you need to tell us what’s going on. How dare you pretend to be a nice person in front of my boss? You must be tired of living!” Rabbit was very angry at this hypocrite and wanted to yell at him. Lincoln grimaced and shook his head. He had no idea what was going on either. “I'm really sorry. Let me get to the bottom of this. If everything is true, I owe you and the Celestial Palace an explanation!” After learning about the whole incident, Lincoln knew that the Hexa Guild was at fault for everything. He felt embarrassed by this. “Sure, I’ll wait for your
