Above Kent’s head, the scene of Zi Chen attacking Kent is playing. In that scene, Zi Chen’s ground-burning flames were completely dominated by Kent with his origin flames. It happened when Zi Chen saw his sister and Kent kissing passionately in Kent’s residence.
Seeing the painful groans of Zi Chen in the scene, all the spectators began murmuring loudly with speculation. No one knows when did Zi Chen attacked Kent and how Kent’s flames were more powerful than Zi Chen.
“It seems Zi Chen has a past hatred with Kent.”
“LMAO… Look at Zi Chen’s face… He is almost crying…”
“I don’t want to lose my money. Zi Chen must win this fight.”
All the spectators who were confident until now began feeling a bit of nervous after seeing that taunting memory played by Kent.
Zi Chen took a step against Kent in anger. “Stop… Zi Chen, Don’t go against the rules.” The arbiter pointed his wand at Zi Chen’s face and stopped him from moving further against Kent.
“You will pay for this, bastard.” Zi Chen roared with a fierce look.
Kent just smiled and stopped playing the same scene repeatedly.
“Okay, enough drama. Mr. Zi Chen, as you promised, please submit 2000 spirit stones and your ranking contract with the Arena. If you lose this match, Kent will get your rank and all your arena points.” The arbiter asked as he stretched his hand before Kent.
Zi Chen showed an unwilling look to arbiter’s request. “Arbiter, when I promised those things, he is just a first-stage master magus. Now he is peak master magus. So, I wanted to submit only the 2000 spirit stones. I hope you stand on the side of justice.” Zi Chen’s voice resounded all around the Arena.
People who hadn’t noticed Kent’s cultivation until now gasped in surprise. Several people began scanning Kent because they couldn’t believe it.
“How did he do it in one day?”
“He must have used forbidden resources…”
“What a waste of talent! Just for one fight, he spoiled his own future.” Everyone began judging Kent negatively, as it was impossible for anyone to surpass four cultivation levels in one night.
“Tch, little lady, why did you let your lover take such unconventional means?” Nina, who is sitting in the VIP room, spoke with Sophia in a delayed tone.
“Nina…” The Supreme Sword Magus called out her name in a serious tone. “You’re speaking on impulse. That fellow’s aura is very pure and stable. He just had a fruitful encounter.” The sword magus spoke in a serious tone without moving his gaze from Kent. For some odd reason, his gaze stuck on Kent’s nimbus knuckles from the start.
The sword magus was seriously thinking about Kent’s background as he observed the Victor bow and Nimbus gauntlets, which originated from the Wizard association.
Inside the fighting ring, the arbiter thought for a minute as he wondered what to do in that situation. But suddenly, he received a command from an Arena master.
“See, Mr. Zi Chen, you are the one who gave Kent a one-day break to prepare instead of fighting an instant dual. So, Mr. Kent, really come prepared. It was your mistake in the first place. So, you must submit both 2000 spirit stones and your ranking contract.
If you are unwilling to fight, the Arena will ban you for wasting the time and resources of the Arena.” The arbiter replied in a serious tone.
Zi Chen gritted his teeth in anger and took out a pouch and a leather contract sheet signed with Arena.
“Now, go and stand in your position. The fight will begin shortly.” The arbiter said before walking towards the edge of the fighting ring.
After taking a long look at Kent, Zi Chen turned around and flew away towards his fighting ring. Kent released a deep sigh and began walking back to the southern side of the fighting ring. His two pets followed closely. Explore more stories at
“Jabil, we both will fight head-on. Kavi, you stay behind me and keep that featherless condor busy. In any case, don’t leave my back and fight directly. Do you understand?” Kent muttered in a beast tone while mounting on Jabil.
Soon, a count appeared on the aurora glass, and everyone began shouting the numbers.
10… 9… 8…
Zi Chen mounted on the six-legged Fire Lizard and commanded the featherless condor to release the disturbing noises to divert Kent’s focus on the battle. The featherless condor is one of the main strengths for Zi Chen, as its noise will disturb the opponent’s focus and affect their spell casting.
But what Zi Chen didn’t notice is that the crown Kent wore has the blessings of the demi-god Guru, and the noise of a featherless condor is useless against Kent. Maya, who sat among the crowd, is smiling triumphantly under her mask.
“5… 4…” Both fighters got ready to fly, and the people began releasing fireworks from their wands into the sky. Kent had already drawn his bow string and began circulating the aura with fire dao.
“3… 2… 1…”
“Boom… Boom…”
Just as the clock touched zero, both Kent and Zi Chen released their attacks. Two fire comets met at the center and blasted apart. Instead of vanishing, the Zi Chen comet fell to the ground and set the ground ablaze.
Loud cheering followed as Zi Chen already began setting his remarkable ground-burning flames from the start of the fight.
Unlike other fighters, Zi Chen didn’t soar into the sky. He is just hovering a few feet above the ground and fighting Kent. It is one of his tactics to use less aura, and the opponent’s aura will burn away faster if they stay close to the ground due to the presence of ground-burning flames.
While Kent and Zi Chen were fighting with powerful spells, the six-legged lizard continued to release loud air blasts towards Jabil to outbalance him. Meanwhile, the featherless condor is hovering above Kent and trying his best to disturb Kent.
Even though the Fire Kirin releasing the fire blasts from time to time, the featherless condor easily evading them.
Time passed slowly, and hundreds of normal spells were exchanged between Kent and Zi Chen. People stopped chanting Zi Chen’s name a long time ago, and everyone began doubting Zi Chen’s ability to beat Kent easily.
Kent purposefully prolonging the fight by defending, which caused irritation to Zi Chen.
With an angry roar, Zi Chen distanced himself from Kent and began preparing to release an inheritance Asthra.
Kent also lifted the bow high into the air as he muttered a spell for the Phoenix legacy spell.
