Chapter 250 - Began, The Battle Of Divine Powers
"Cyril wants to challenge me? That"s a good thing, it saves me the trouble of looking for him!"
Vincent could not help but laugh when he heard the news from Irene.
Irene, on the other hand, said with some worry, "At first, we all thought that Cyril would not be a match for you, but now that he has taken the initiative to challenge you, could it be a trap?"
Vincent thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Doesn"t matter. No matter what kind of plans he has, he will still have to rely on his strength to speak! As long as he is still a partic.i.p.ant in the Arena of Life and Death, he will not be a match for me!"
After seeing that Vincent was very confident, Irene could only comfort herself that she was thinking too much.
Vincent thought for a moment and said, "Let"s arrange for him to be in my 20th match. Right now, I just need a big win to prove my strength to everyone!"
"Okay, I"ll do it right away!" said Irene whilst nodding. She then turned around and left.
Vincent sat in his room and began to carefully recall Irene"s reminder. He was not a person who was confident to the point of being frivolous, nor would he underestimate any opponent. It was just that he had too many trump cards in his hands at that moment. Whether it was the Hand of G.o.d that could evade authority, the Cup of Fate that could devour and disa.s.semble skills, or the 19 modified authority scrolls, they were powerful trump cards for Vincent. He did not know how he could lose!
Vincent sighed softly, "Besides! Who cares about Cyril? It"s just a hopeless struggle for survival! What"s there to worry about?"
He then returned to his bed to continue his training.
Time continued to pa.s.s by day after day. Vincent partic.i.p.ated in the matches as usual. He adjusted his training time to ensure that he would not be late for the following matches. However, it had a slight impact on his training speed.
However, it was no longer important because Vincent"s method of winning matches was getting easier and easier. He was no longer worried that there would be an opponent he could not defeat. Finally, the day of Cyril"s declaration of war had arrived.
The Arena of Life and Death had also carried out a few days of publicity for this. However, this time, the audience"s enthusiasm was not affected because everyone was optimistic about the Fire Asura. No one paid attention to Cyril, who avoided the fight against General h.e.l.l.
Those who were willing to watch the match were still the same audience who wanted to witness Vincent"s record-breaking performance. As for the match itself, they were no longer as interested.
"Next, let us welcome the Invincible King of the Arena of Life and Death, the Fire Asura!"
Amidst the host"s enthusiastic cheers, Vincent once again walked into the Arena of Life and Death. He listened to the shouts of the people around him quietly. He then looked at the opposite entrance of the arena indifferently.
"Next, let us welcome Fire Asura"s opponent for today, the top contestant with the strength of a level 29 creature, Cyril!"
As the host shouted, the entrance to the arena opened once again. A two-meter-tall monster with wings on its back and a pair of huge eagle claws on its feet walked into the arena. Its entire body was surging with blue thunderbolts. It stood proudly in front of Vincent.
The entrance to the arena slowly shut behind him. The duel then began!
Vincent"s eyes turned cold, revealing endless killing intent.
Just as Vincent was about to make the first move, Cyril suddenly sneered and said, "I really didn"t expect that there would be a day when no one would cheer for me! Fire Asura, have you ever thought that sooner or later, you would also be abandoned by these audiences?"
Vincent did not understand whether the other party was stalling for time or had something else to rely on, so he decided to wait and see. He then replied, "Don"t worry, there won"t be such a day! Because before they abandon me, I will definitely abandon them first and obtain freedom in the Arena of Life and Death!"
"Hmph, wishful thinking!"
Cyril let out a cold snort filled with ridicule and contempt. He then said, "Ever since the Arena of Life and Death was established, there have been countless experts who had the ability to win 100 matches. But do you know why only a few of them can successfully win 100 matches?"
Vincent raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in return, "Are you trying to say that someone is controlling the arena and intentionally letting those partic.i.p.ants who can win 100 matches die?"
Cyril sneered and said viciously, "Unfortunately, you realized it too late! Who asked you to be so arrogant? It has only been less than 20 matches, and you already want to win 100 matches so quickly. As such, I have no choice but to deal with you in advance!"
Vincent was a little different. He raised his hand helplessly and quickly said, "Wait, you"re not trying to say that you"re the person controlling the field, are you? Do you think you can control my winning streak? Telling jokes should be based on facts, right? What rights do you have to stop me?"
After hearing that, Cyril"s face was still wearing a cold smile as he strode towards Vincent.
With every step he took, the aura on his body would rise by a notch. When he finally walked in front of Vincent, his entire body had turned into a dazzling blue-white color. The lightning that was surrounding him previously had also thickened into chains.
"What right do you have? I have been suppressing my own strength and have killed 90 partic.i.p.ants who had the chance to win 100 matches in a row in the Arena of Life and Death. Why do you think I"ve recruited my subordinates? Do you think you"re the only one who thought of a way to negotiate with the Ultimate Evil Lord?"
Cyril asked Vincent with a smug look on his face. At the same time, he disclosed his ident.i.ty to Vincent.
Cyril could have entered the arena and faced General h.e.l.l. He might have had a chance to win.
However, in his agreement with the Ultimate Evil Lord, he only needed to help him eliminate the contestants who had a chance of winning 100 matches in a row. He could reject the rest of the battles!
However, he did not expect Fire Asura to appear out of nowhere and make a big show in front of everyone. Moreover, he also had the ambition to rule all the contestants. What Vincent did had already touched Cyril"s sore spot. Therefore, he had to end Vincent in advance. He wanted to prove to everyone that he was the true king of the Arena of Life and Death!
Vincent was a little shocked at that moment. However, he was not shocked because of Cyril"s ident.i.ty. After all, the Ultimate Evil Lord had been in charge of the Arena of Life and Death for so long. It would be hard to believe if he did not have the right to control the compet.i.tion.
What really surprised Vincent was that Cyril gave him the feeling that he was only at the peak of a level 29 creature. However, the lightning chains around his body were generated using the power of the law ability. It was the same chains that the evil lord used when he was in charge of the domain.
"I didn"t expect this at all! You could really be considered as a rare opponent for me!"
A hint of excitement suddenly appeared in Vincent"s eyes. This was because he had also grasped one of the abilities to become a G.o.d, the Flame Authority!
As he had finally met an opponent who was almost the same level as him and also had the ability to become a G.o.d, it was just the right time for Vincent to experience the battle between high-level creatures.
At the same time, on the top floor, the Ultimate Evil Lord was standing in front of the window, quietly watching the battle below. He said to Irene beside him, "As a contestant, it"s not good to be too arrogant! Both of them are arrogant, so today, I didn"t target anyone. I just want one of them to die, and the living one can get everything he wants because I"m the only King here!"
