BXBX NOVEL 617 Chapter 617
Since Madam Yan Meng didn't want to make their relationship and deal known to the rest of the world, she didn't send Lu'er or her people to accompany Eric to the venue in the open.
Still, Eric could tell that more than 6 civilian dressed guards were keeping him under their watch at all times. More importantly one of them was actually a peak Realm 4 evolver.
It was clear how much important was he to Madam Yan Meng at the moment, but that could be easily understood.
After all, the woman's life was in his hands, not to mention the importance of the Blood Rose she wanted to grow and improve.
Knowing and mentioning all of that, it would be weird if Madam Yan Meng did the opposite and did not attach him enough importance, that would make her a fool.
Eric was certain that the expert following behind him, most probably even had orders from her to save him in case the situation looked too bleach for him at the Arena.
But he didn't really care about that!
After all, he had long ago decided that he would be the winner of the Arena competition, and he couldn't wait to see his partner's face at the time.
With these thoughts in mind, Eric quickly arrived at the venue and made his way towards the front door.
There were quite a few people trying to show their invitations and enter inside, but he didn't bother with them and made his way towards an open aisle amidst the crowd.
"Hey, where do you think you are going!?"
"How dare you cross the line like that!?"
"Who do you think you are!?"
"Do you know what you are doing!?"
"Do you have a death wish!?"
Quite a few idiots couldn't keep their mouths shut as they either threatened or tried to frighten him with their stupid questions.
Fortunately for these idiots, Eric had no intention of dealing with them, as he just kept his pace and made his way toward the guards.
Just because he didn't pay attention to them though didn't mean that they would do the same.
While the biggest part were just waiting to witness a great show, one of them walked forward and grabbed on his leather jacket!
"Where the fu*ck do you think you are going punk!? How dare you ignore me like that!? Are you tired of living!?"
At that moment though he had already shown his ID to the guard in front of him, who couldn't help but look at him with a startled and shocked expression on his face before he looked angrily at the idiot behind Eric.
"Do I have to deal with someone like him or will you do it for me!?"
"Please don't worry Esteemed Master, we will do it for you! You better not dirty your hands with such idiots!"
With that said, he made a sign towards the other guards, who immediately arrived and grabbed the guy who had grabbed his jacket by the throat and picked him up.
"You should feel elated that it's me who is dealing with you, and not the Esteemed Master, or your father, as you would be dead by now!"
With that said, he threw the choking idiot about 3 to 4 meters away, as Eric just continued his path ahead.
'Cough…, Cough…, cough… Who the fu*ck is he!? Who did I just offend!?"
Everyone in the crowd was having the same question, and fortunately, they didn't need to wait for a long time to receive an answer!
"You might feel wronged now, but I am sure that you will thank us when you know the identity of the Esteemed Master that entered inside!
After all, he is one of the Top Ten Masters that will fight in the final tonight!"
'What!?'
Many people heard about Eric's identity and they couldn't help but truly feel as the guards said, with the exception of the guy that had been humiliated just now.
After all, he had thought that Eric was some kind of high personality Young Master, for him to act like that. But in the end, he was nothing but a stupid and greedy fighter.
Even if Eric didn't die in this Arena, he would make sure that he didn't see the sunlight ever again in the proximate future.
As for the guards that had thrown him like that, he would avenge against them as well, right after he bought their freedom from their employer. Those fu*ckers were in for a nice surprise.
…
Eric didn't bother or care about what happened at the entrance, as he was fully focused on all the fights he was going to experience tonight.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, we welcome you to our Centurion Arena, the battle of the Masters, and hope that you will leave happy at the end of the night from this place!
Just like you all now, this is the Top Ten night of the competition, and is also the night of the best entertainment, as the people fighting are real Masters.
On top of that, tonight our Arena is going to provide a little surprise for all of you!
We know and understand that many people were dubious about the matching prior to the Top 10, wondering how was possible that a Realm 1 evolver made it to the picked Top 10.
While we can't stress enough that there was no rigging, we still have decided to explain ourselves to you tonight, which is also our surprise for you!
The 'Weak Master' is going to fight any challenger who thinks that can take his spot, as long as they provide 5 million dollars upfront!"
'What!?'
'How is that possible!?'
'He will be worn out even before the fighting starts!'
'How can he do something like that, is he stupid!?'
While the crowd was insulting Eric's intelligence, there was one guy who couldn't be happier with Eric's choice, and that was the idiot he encountered at the entrance.
That guy thought that he was the luckiest person alive because his target was going to die a short time after it had humiliated him.
"What!? Is that for real!?"
While the whole crowd were whispering and talking to each other, the crispy but loud voice of the announcer at the cage, empowered by his mic, broke the silence and the spectators' eardrums.
But who could blame him, as he had just received a message that he wasn't able to believe personally. Upon confirmation though, he had no other option but to say it out loud,
"I just received unbelievable news dear Ladies and Gentlemen, a piece of news that even I can't believe!
Apparently, our 'Weak Master' doesn't want to waste his time so there will be a numeric sequence of the opponents he will face.
Meaning that for the first fight it will be one, for the second two, and from then on fourth, the number of opponents will increase by 1 each round, until there are no more challengers."
The crowd was shocked, they already thought that Eric was an idiot before this, and now that this news was spread they agreed that he was a lunatic.
As for Eric himself, he was just looking at the atmosphere and the crowd, as a devilish grin was plastered on his face.
He understood better than anyone, that he was finished if he fought all those guys fairly until the end, and he was no fool.
The only opponents that would provide him equal fighting abilities, were that Mountain Idiot, and perhaps the next four of five opponents.
The rest would be just too powerful for him to actually be able to kill them fair and square, and he had no intention of dying.
So after, taking what he wanted he was going to scare the rest away so that he put a quick end to this charade.
With these thoughts in mind, he quickly came out of his waiting room and walked towards the Arena, the big shiny Cage in the middle of the green field, where the Mountain Idiot was waiting for him.
There was a weird expression of gloat on the guy's face as if he had already won even before the fight started officially, as Eric couldn't help but say,
"You know, I was thinking of giving you the last chance to live through this tonight, as I considered you as just some idiot who was being taken advantage of, but it seems like I was thinking too much.
You deserve to die, just like a wild beast!"
"You bastaaardddddddd~!"
Eric had no idea at which part of his words did this guy get angry and decided to attack him, but that guy seemed to have gone crazy.
After all, the official start sound had yet to go off, but he had jumped in an attack like an enraged wild beast.
'Baannngggg~!'
Just as Eric and the crowd were both surprised and startled at his reaction, the referee fired the gun to officially start the battle.
Those guys' seemed to have been caught unprepared as well, but they were quick to act, and start the battle before the confrontation happened.
Like this, Eric wouldn't have grounds to refuse the validity of this fight, that was if he were able to survive, because the Mountain Idiot was attacking him with tangible bloodlust!
One would think that Eric was his greatest and most hated enemy, not just an opponent in the Arena, but that didn't matter right now.
The Ax he was wielding with both hands was raised above his head, and when he was 2 meters away from Eric, he swung the Ax down, creating quite the spectacle…
