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
This person gave Philip a bad feeling. He was obviously no longer on the rookie list. Philip easily defeated the three rookies earlier, so the quality of his upcoming opponents would increase rapidly. Philip felt that the guy standing quietly in front of him could completely conceal his presence and mask his existence. Moreover, the other party looked ordinary. Even if Philip carefully observed his appearance, it was difficult to remember what he looked like. He also exuded an affectionate vibe as if he were a close friend, which was hard to describe. Something had to be wrong. Philip stood on guard. The friendlier the person, the more terrifying he was behind the scenes. “This guy is more than meets the eye. He must be very strong.” Philip sighed uneasily, wondering what was wrong with that guy. Someone like that had to be terrifying. Philip was not a careless guy. He would pay attention to this. “I’m surprised to see an opponent like you.” The young man was surpri
Even people near the top of the list dared not mess with Killer Bee for no reason. The technique he practiced could kill with one move. He also had a method that could harm both himself and his opponent. Only someone like him would practice such a detrimental move. No one would fight to die, but Killer Bee simply wanted to kill. Such an opponent was very problematic, and Killer Bee was notorious for killing many people. Almost everyone believed that Philip would lose this match and might even lose his life. Philip overheard the conversations around him and was surprised to hear the other party’s identity. However, he had nothing to fear. Instead, he felt very excited and even looked forward to it. He was not only taking part in the match just to make a name for himself. He wanted to encounter various opponents and gauge their strength too. Coming to Deadly Arena meant that he was not afraid of risking his life, and he could learn many things he had never encountered before.
Killer Bee had never thought that Philip could compete with him. He scowled. “Since you want to die, I’ll grant your wish!” Killer Bee was furious to see Philip’s strength. In his opinion, Philip was nothing more than a rookie and had no right to enter the advanced list. Why was he so strong? He thought it was unfair and wanted to kill Philip. “You’ll die now!” Killer Bee was very unhappy. Philip was very arrogant and was just wasting his time. The sword in his hand turned into a spike and Killer Bee jumped into the sky. He sped up and vanished into thin air. Everyone was shocked. No one could see Killer Bee and wondered what was going on. Philip caught his trace and simply stood there, motionless. “Hehe, is this little trick all you have? You think too much.” Philip shook his head helplessly. This guy was really stupid. “You’re very bold to look down on me like this. Do you really think you’re so powerful and undefeatable?” Killer Bee roared in anger, his voice ech
Some people saw Philip's actions before he confounded everyone, so they were terrified. “What's going on? Has that guy gone crazy? I just saw him standing there motionless, waiting for Killer Bee to attack him.” “I would've moved ages ago. Killer Bee is very powerful. He was clearly lurking around, waiting for the chance to attack Philip, but Philip didn’t even try to dodge. Is he really that confident in his strength?” “It’s over. I bet tens of thousands of energy stones on Philip. Everything will go down the drain if he loses the match.” Everyone sighed, hoping Philip would not let them down. However, more people thought that Philip would definitely die this time. At his level, it was simply impossible for him to face Killer Bee's strongest sneak attack. The old men looked at Philip's action with excitement and anticipation, hoping that Philip would be killed immediately. “It’d be great if he died. We can recoup all our losses in one fell swoop.” “It’s good if we can
Very soon, someone sent Philip his rewards. The onlookers were surprised to see Philip receiving so many precious treasures. Some were happy while others were sad. Some envied Philip's treasures while others hankered after them. After all, not everyone could receive such rewards. Only practitioners who performed well had the opportunity to get these rewards that belonged to the advanced list. Although they could not do anything to Philip for the time being, Philip would leave Deadly Arena eventually. As long as they did not take action in Deadly Arena, no one would care what happened to Philip after that. “You can stay if you want to keep fighting. I’ll take a look around and find a place for us to stay,” Philip said to his people. These little guys had not shown off their strength yet, so they were sure to stay. Sure enough, everyone nodded. It was time for them to take the spotlight. Aslan and the others chose to stay. No one would miss the opportunity to show off. Philip
Philip walked on the road leisurely, feeling honored to have so many people stalking him. “I’m surprised that I could attract so many people.” Philip sighed in amazement as he walked. Soon, he came across several good large inns and made his choice after some selection. He was not short of money, so he did not waste time on this. “I’m going to fully reserve this inn for the time being. I don't want to see other people on my territory, so your job is to keep irrelevant people out.” Philip negotiated with the innkeeper and received the other party's consent. After all, Philip’s offer was too good to refuse. They quickly reached an agreement, and Philip obtained the right to use the inn at a good price. At this time, a bunch of people surrounded Philip with disdain. “You’re quite bold to come out alone.” “It’s very interesting to see someone walking around with so many treasures on hand.” Everyone mocked with disdainful smiles on their faces. Philip shook his head helple
“You seem stronger than Killer Bee. You might've stood a chance of winning if you had gone against him,” Philip taunted. Philip raised his head and took the punch without breaking a sweat. “If you want to steal from me, I'm sorry to tell you that you found the wrong target. If you just want to make friends with me, I’m more than happy to accept.” Philip grabbed the guy’s fist and threw him out with disdain, not taking him seriously at all. The guy did not expect that he would be tossed aside like a piece of trash and started panicking. Before he passed out, he only remembered that Philip easily dealt with him without breaking a sweat. He did not know what happened later, but he knew that Philip was so strong that he could kill him in a split second. If he could turn back time, he would never go after Philip again. Other people were shocked to see Philip’s strength. “He tossed the guy out so easily. This is terrifying. How did he do it?” “That’s impossible. That guy is p
“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
