"Next, let's welcome our newcomer contestant, Yi, to participate in today's ranking competition."

At that moment, a voice sounded from outside.

Wang Ye heard the voice and instantly stood up, walking towards the outside.

The newcomer participating in the ranking competition was naturally him.

Outside, the spectators became lively and excited upon hearing the words "newcomer" and "ranking competition".

"Interesting, there's actually a newcomer participating in the ranking competition today. How long has it been since anyone participated in a ranking competition in the Snow Bear Arena?"

"It's been a long time, right? After all, recently, the newcomers who joined the Snow Bear Arena and participated in the competitions were doomed to die, none of them survived to complete the ranking."

"I was feeling a bit regretful; it's been so long without any newcomers at the Snow Bear Arena. I thought there might not be any more newcomers, but surprisingly, just as I thought about it yesterday, someone showed up for the ranking competition today."

The discussions among the spectators grew louder as they looked at the empty arena, feeling very much anticipatory.

At other times, a newcomer's ranking competition would just be an ordinary event, and they wouldn't care much.

After all, if the strength is too weak, even during combat, it can't provide them with a visual feast.

But they hadn't seen a newcomer in a ranking competition for a long time.

As Shi Heng and Wang Ye mentioned, the ranking competitions at the Snow Bear Arena involve a lot of bloodshed and fatalities.

These newcomers, upon arrival at the Snow Bear Arena, continuously defeat one enemy after another, inevitably becoming arrogant, even if their strength wavers and they are severely injured, they feel they can take on one more opponent.

Until, fighting one more, they end up losing everything.

This is a common occurrence at the Snow Bear Arena.

This situation has scared those who still wanted to continue participating in the ranking competitions at the Snow Bear Arena, thus very few dare to join.

Though those who come to the Snow Bear Arena must have some courage.

However, courage doesn't mean seeking death.

Shi Heng listened to the discussions around him, but his emotions weren't overly stirred; he looked worried.

He knew that Wang Ye was a very competitive, inherently strong-willed, and stubborn person.

Even though he just reminded Wang Ye, he couldn't be sure if Wang Ye would listen to him on the battlefield.

In this arena, it's easy for one's head to get hot.

When that happens, nothing else matters anymore.

One feels invincible, unstoppable.

"I hope you don't lose yourself in it."

Shi Heng silently thought.

With Shi Heng's status, he could sit in the VIP lounge in the arena.

But Shi Heng didn't go there.

If he did go, it would be after Wang Ye finished the ranking competition.

People above had already started placing bets.

"Alright, let's bet on how far this kid will get in the ranking competition."

While they placed their bets, Wang Ye had already reached the center of the arena, visible to everyone outside.

"I bet on the third match. This kid looks good, but he seems soft and delicate; he won't do well in battle. He may get killed by the third match."

"You know he's weak, yet you bet he can last till the third match? You must have money to burn. Let me place a bet too; I bet he can last only until the second round!"

"Hey, where did all these kind-hearted people come from today? He's so young and doesn't even look like he has any killing intent in his eyes. You actually expect something from him? I think he'll be knocked down in the first-level match."

This person spoke with great confidence.

After all, he was connected to the participant of today's match.

The participants today told him that even backstage, this guy was only practicing quietly.

Upon hearing this, he instantly knew that Wang Ye's strength was questionable.

If someone has confidence in their strength, how could they be practicing constantly, even during breaks?

Clearly, he has weak strength.

So, he was certain he would win this bet!

Shi Heng heard the people behind him placing ever-lower bets, and an unknown fire rose within him.

This is his disciple!

His disciple, Shi Heng's disciple, was being looked down upon during the bets, Shi Heng, as Wang Ye's mentor, felt upset.

Shi Heng took a deep breath, stood up, and gave a cold glance at the people behind.

Shi Heng did not show his true face to the public.

The real Shi Heng looked like a refined scholar, a courteous gentleman.

But now, he was disguised as a rough warrior like Zhang Fei.

His fierce eyes carried killing intent, making those discussing him feel fearful, and they spoke out:

"Hey, why are you looking at us like that? We were just commenting on the contestant, not you."

"Even if that person has some connection to you, since he's entered the arena, he's subject to comments. You can't look at us like that."

"This is an arena, and it's normal for us to place bets based on him."

Though initially scared by Shi Heng's fierce gaze, their confidence grew as they spoke.

Gradually, they felt less fear towards Shi Heng.

After all, this was the Snow Bear Arena!

Everyone knew the boss's high status and position in the Snow Bear Arena.

If anyone dared to cause trouble here, the Snow Bear Arena would surely have someone handle it.

"Do you intend to attack us? You must know, the boss of the Snow Bear Arena is not someone you can provoke!"

Someone boldly spoke out.

Shi Heng did not respond.

After a silent pause, Shi Heng continued to speak.
