"Hehehe~! Finally, I was starting to think that you had forgotten about ! Don't worry, I have promised to win whatever competition this is, and bring you face, honor, and money!"
"Hmph~! Just make sure you don't die from the first round!"
With that said, Young Miss Long imdiately set on her way to make her own preparations, while Eric was left behind thinking and cultivating.
Without wasting ti he had imdiately sent a text ssage to Cui Xie to ask if he had any information about whatever this was and if he could co to the venue.
Well, it was more like an order to co to the Arena though, rather than asking him, because Eric needed a helper.
Not to guard him from the fights, and dirty dealings behind scenes, but in order to help him get even wealthier.
In a few words, Eric needed soone trusted to co to the venue and bet on him for every fight. After all, his odds were most probably going to be extrely high.
But if Cui Xie was the only one who bet on him then he would be certainly raising doubts, so he needed more accomplices.
People that wouldn't be connected to him, and whose connections wouldn't bring him trouble or complicate things.
With these thoughts in mind, he decided to contact two more people, the first was Ren Jia, and the second was none other than the beautiful assassin on Gao Mansion.
Of course, the capital of the betting would be provided by himself, as he imdiately sent them 100 million dollars each.
He had no idea what was the limit of betting, as he told them to bet as much as they could. He had never considered defeat because he had never considered death.
No matter what, or how he was going to kill all his opponents and co out of the pit with a nice bag of money, that would once again be spent on resources, herbs, and weapons.
Ti seed to pass quicker while cultivating and ditating, as it didn't take long for the sun to start hiding and the moon to reveal itself.
Eric had already notified the other ladies to not wait for him, as he was going to get out today for so private business of his.
Those words seed to have taken the ladies by surprise, but none of them could do or say anything against it.
With that taken care of, Eric left the Long Family Mansion from the servants' door and slowly walked forward, as a car arrived from behind him.
"Get in! We are late!"
Without saying any extra words, Eric imdiately hopped into the car, as the car started heading towards the Arena.
It was only when they arrived that Eric understood what the famous Arena was, and he couldn't help but get a bit startled and surprised at the venue.
This so-called Arena was nothing but a big football stadium, that had been fully sealed, and reserved for the fights tonight.
He had expected for this place to be so kind of underground venue, with people bustling and cheering from around the iron cage, but this was anything but that.
There was certainly a big tallic cage in the middle of the stadium, but all these people were actually sitting on the stairs of the stadium, or its special boxes.
The number of people participating in this event surpassed 10 thousand, as there were people from all walks of life, and from all over the country.
More than an underground arena of fights to the death, this seed like so sort of national event to please the high society.
Of course, it wasn't only the Arena, even the number of participants in this one, was beyond Eric's expectations, as there were more than 1000 fighters.
Most of them were in the 1st and 2nd Realm of evolution, but there were also those guys at the 3rd and 4th Realm of evolution.
Seeing this whole crowd of fighters in front of him, Eric couldn't help but feel that he had signed up for more than he could handle.
Of course, if he showed his real strength, and all his trump cards he was bound to win, as none of these guys were actually his opponents, but unfortunately that wasn't possible.
He had no intention of revealing himself and his real identity, as he had yet a lot of things to deal with at the Long Family Mansion.
He didn't need to think deeply to understand that he had actually 'fallen' for a trap. Young Miss Long's intention had never been the money, prize, or any fight for honor, but his death.
He had to admit that it was a pretty nice sche. Like this, she would bla the fault on his greed, and the Arena. Her hands would be clean.
'Heheeheheh~! Young Miss Long, Young Miss Long, it seems like you need to be taught a good lesson! Just like that little bi*tchy maid of yours!'
As he was thinking like this, Eric followed behind Young Miss Long with an unhappy expression on his face, showing his displeasure!
"What happened partner, what's with that look on your face! Don't tell that you got scared and want to run away now!"
There was clear mockery and irony in Young Miss Long's words and voice, as she was trying to taunt Eric, so he didn't give up.
"You tricked , you never told that there will be Realm 3 and 4 opponents! I sold myself too cheap, I should have asked for more!"
Hearing the first part of Eric's words Young Miss Long was a bit frightened that he might truly pull back but hearing the second part she couldn't help but get startled and stunned.
'He sold himself too cheap!? This guy knew he was going to die, and still couldn't think of anything else but money!? Just what kind of man was he!?'
Young Miss Long couldn't help but think like this, as Eric seed to be checking his opponents one by one!
Of course, as part of the Long Family, Young Miss Long and he were actually accommodated in one of the luxurious boxes, and were served the best food, and wine, alongside all the necessary information.
It was truly better to be rich and powerful, always having advantages over the rest of the people.
But while they were each considering their own thoughts, the door to the box opened wide, and a sassy Young Lady entered inside,
"Oh my, if it isn't Young Miss Long! I didn't think that you would dare show your face around here, after what happened last ti!
I truly comnd you for your spirits!"
The newcor was certainly more beautiful than average but compared to Young Miss Long she clearly missed a few points.
At first view, she seed to be Young Miss Long's enemy, but while there were traces of arrogance and haughtiness in her voice, there wasn't any sign of malice.
It looked like Young Miss Long had set up a good show for him, and Eric couldn't help but beco a part of it.
"Thank you for your complint Young Miss Ling, differently from so cowardly people, I do have the guts to reappear in the Arena after my fighter was killed by trickery!
This ti I am going to show everyone that they shouldn't offend !"
"Hahahah~! Is that so!? This ti I arduously hired a Realm 4 rcenary called Bloody Gorilla, so I would love to see what your trashy fighter can do against him!"
"Hmph~! Just wait and see, I am afraid that your fighter will end up dead in less than 10 punches from my fighter!"
"Heheheh~! We will see!
Little brother, if you get scared later don't be ashad to run like a chicken. After all, your life should be more important than so money, right!?"
That second part was clearly aid at Eric, trying to scare and frighten him. Of course, she might have succeeded if it were soone else.
"Young Miss Ling doesn't need to worry this much, if that cheap fighter of Young Miss Long can't win against your Bloody Gorilla, then my Master Heartless surely will!
The number of Realm 4 experts that had fallen on his hands has reached dozens, after all."
Just as Eric thought that the show was about to end, and he could continue his food, another haughty voice was heard from the entrance of the box.
This ti it was a fairly handso Young Master, who seed to have written on his forehead his infatuation with Young Miss Long, and he had co here to show-off, and help her.
What surprised Eric though was the fact, that this guy didn't seem to be part of the plan, as both ladies were startled by his entrance, but they kept the show move on.
This would make their acting scene even more believable! As they were thinking like that, Young Miss Long placed a staunch and strong expression on her face, as she said with a similar voice,
"Thank you for your good intentions Young Master Cao, but I can't accept them! After all, my fighter is going to win the prize in this Arena! That is our deal!"
"What!? Hahahhahahahaha~! Is that for real!? Hahahaahhahaha~!
I don't want to offend you Young Miss Long, but one needs to close his eyes even if he wants to dream!
I am certain your fighter will pass the preliminaries, but I seriously doubt he is going to go farther than round 4!
Forget about Realm 4 Masters, even a Realm 3 expert is more than your trashy Realm 1 fighter can afford!"
