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
The old men were about to go crazy. They looked at Philip in disbelief and felt that Philip was not normal. Philip sighed inwardly. He thought highly of Dodo and wanted to recruit him. The people who bet their money on Philip were shocked. They were so lucky to have won the bet by fluke. Those who bet their money on Dodo were horrified. No one could believe that the undefeatable Dodo would lose so badly. The winners jumped with joy and excitement. They wished they could hug Philip and give him a big kiss. “This is wonderful. I won a lot of money this time. That guy is really amazing, much better than I thought.” “I recouped all my losses this time. I can’t believe it.” Everyone said cheerfully, paying no heed to the losers at all. “I knew we should believe in Philip. He’s stronger than I thought.” “I think he should be first on the rookie list. Although he has only fought three matches so far, the level of the fights is simply out of this world. He defeated his oppone
“I’m surrendering to the humans, not the merfolk. Who do you think you are?” The chief of the fish creatures knew that he stood a chance to survive if he surrendered to the humans, but they would be dead if they gave in to the merfolk. The merfolk hated their existence and could not wait to kill them. On the other hand, the humans did not have a big grudge against them. At most, he would allow Katie to stab them a few times. Moray scowled at his words and trembled with anger. “Fine, remember your words. You’ll pay the price for what you said today.” He turned away from the chief of the fish creatures' arrogant face and glanced at Philip instead. In his opinion, Philip should at least fulfill his promise. However, Philip paid no heed to him at all. “You should know what I want. I won’t take action if you hand it over of your own accord. Although you’re ugly, at least you never messed with me,” Philip said with a smile. The fish creatures could not refute the fact that they
Tom watched this scene smugly. His plan worked. Although he failed to get Katie’s agreement, he managed to sow discord between Marina and Philip. He could proceed with the next step. Marina was very upset now, so he had to seize the opportunity to intervene. Katie was the center of this fight. It was time for a battle to the death. Philip watched from the sidelines. He would only step forward to provide help when Katie needed it. Otherwise, he would simply keep an eye on her. He wanted to take the opportunity to train her as an ace up his sleeve. The fish creatures were fully prepared to fight Philip and the others, but they had no idea that they were so strong. They thought that the humans had ordinary bodies and could not resist their poison. The fish creatures' venom should be lethal for humans, making them unable to resist. However, these humans seemed indestructible. They had no way to deal with them no matter how hard they tried. “What’s up with these people's bodies?
Tom was counting on Philip to help them deal with the fish creatures. He thought that he could sit back and reap the benefits, but things were not as simple as imagined. Philip would not fall for it so easily. Philip glanced at Tom, disappointed by the eagerness in his eyes. He did not expect that the simple and honest young man would show such a side. At this time, Tom glanced at Katie. He wanted to take the opportunity to win Katie over to his side. “Katie, just look at the ugly side of these people. I begged Philip to bring you to this world back then, so I’m obligated to protect you. Philip is up to no good. I want to take responsibility for what I did back then,” Tom said righteously. Tom felt smug about it, but it was quickly replaced by tension and worry. Katie looked at Tom in confusion, thinking that maybe he was a little unhinged. “You didn’t beg Philip to take me in back then. I was the one who begged him to take me away. “If you hadn't fled to our fishing villag
Moray glanced at Philip with disdain and anger, blaming Philip for everything. He would not have suffered this humiliation if not for Philip. “No matter what, I’ll take care of you right now. Putting aside whether I’m working with humans or not, you’ll die as long as you can’t defeat me.” Moray put up a tough front, feeling annoyed about this. He was embarrassed because of Philip. He vowed to cut off all ties with Philip later and never let anyone know that they worked with humans. Aslan was annoyed by Moray’s unpleasant words. “What do you mean, old man? You behaved differently when you wanted to use us and changed your attitude after using us. Are you burning bridges now?” Aslan with his hot temper knew that the best way to deal with Moray was to condemn him. Moray scowled, surprised that someone dared to complain about him. “What do you mean? Do you think I'm a pushover? You used us to help you deal with the fish creatures, and you want to cut ties with us right after th
Philip had a good impression of Katie. She was passionate about learning and studied very hard. Even Philip felt inferior to her. Since Katie was doing it to seek revenge for her parents, Philip always taught Katie seriously and never kept anything from her. They spoke in a corner privately, and Tom watched with jealousy. Sure enough, Katie had fallen for Philip instead. The way Katie looked at Philip was the same way she looked at Tom back then. It was the worship and admiration for the strong. Tom was depressed at the thought that he had lost Katie in just a few days. Marina keenly noticed Tom's abnormal mood swings. She was curious and wondered what was wrong with him. “Tom, are you okay? Why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell? Or were you scared by the sneak attack just now?” Marina was concerned about her personal guard’s unpleasant look. Unexpectedly, Marina’s concern undermined Tom’s confidence instead. “How could I be scared by those things? Do you really th
Moray used to be a rational person, but things were different now. With Tom adding fuel to the fire and coupled with his daughter’s attitude, Moray lost his temper. He could not tolerate Philip's existence anymore. He felt as if Philip was going to snatch Marina away, which annoyed him. Due to his dignity, however, he simply advised Marina not to be so stupid. “How do you know that Philip is the person you know? With demons running rampant, their methods are unpredictable. They could even disguise themselves as elves. What else can stop them?” Tom could not bear it any longer and spoke up. He did not expect that Moray was so bad at convincing his daughter. It would be bad if Marina convinced Moray instead. “What do you mean? Are you saying that Philip has been possessed by a demon? Or is this Philip not the person we know?” Marina’s expression changed slightly. Tom had a certain say in this matter because they returned from Philip’s world together and received help from P
Moray scowled. He did not expect Philip to be right. It was dangerous ahead. He felt embarrassed by his earlier outburst. “Hehe, even if it’s dangerous, that’s no reason to stop. We should…” Marina was angry at her father’s shameful behavior. She wanted Philip to meet her father and have a good chat, but so many things happened instead. “That’s enough. Stop talking. It’s your mistake this time. They told you about the danger ahead, but you insisted on going there anyway. You’re causing trouble on purpose!” Marina was very angry and went to Philip’s side as if she was going to take his side. Tom looked at this scene with jealousy and resentment. Marina trusted Philip more because of this incident. He had made things worse. Philip ignored their internal conflict. He simply found them annoying. He would not object if they wanted to stop the cooperation. “Philip, I heard that the fish creatures have a treasure that allows them to survive in this harsh environment. Maybe we ca
Loony looked at the merfolk with disdain. Before this, he always thought that the merfolk were smart and beautiful creatures, but reality proved that they were stupid. “Sure enough, only birds of a feather can flock together. Only humans can work together,” Loony said in dissatisfaction. He had always been known as a lunatic, so he did not have to watch his words. Aslan stepped forward on behalf of the monster beasts. “You can't say that. You can criticize the merfolk, but don’t get us involved. We’re loyal to Philip.” Moray was angry at their rebuke and wanted to teach Philip a lesson. “You need to decide quickly. We’re about to arrive. Do you want to give up now? That doesn’t make sense. If you’re a man, you need to take action. Don't let me look down on you.” Moray’s tone was condescending, putting on an air of superiority. “Indeed, I don’t dare to take the risk. Why don’t you take the lead?” Philip said with a smile. He did not take the bait because he did not care ab
Aslan wiped the mud off his body in annoyance. The mud was very sticky, and no one could avoid it. Aslan was disgusted and cursed the fish creatures to hell and back. “Philip, I feel something is wrong ahead. Is it an ambush?” Black Rabbit looked at Philip nervously. He felt something was not right. Philip was surprised by Black Rabbit’s keen senses and wondered what was going on. “Just speak your mind. There’s no need to hold back. We’re on the same side,” Philip said. Black Rabbit nodded and pointed up ahead. “I feel that there’s something wrong with that place. I think someone has set up a barrier to trap us.” Although Black Rabbit had no special ability, he had very keen senses. If he sensed something wrong, they should check it out. Rabbit joined the discussion. Although he hated Black Rabbit, he had to admit that he was capable. “Black Rabbit has a great perception of danger that's much stronger than that of ordinary practitioners.” Everyone stopped and pondered
