Klaus's first deathmatch ended with him being the winner. The battle lasted not more than 20 minutes. All he had to do was hold on till his poison fully activates, then he went for the kill.

In the end, Klaus had killed an Early Immortal in the most unusual way possible.

The rules of cultivation are vastly different once one steps into the ranks of an Immortal. Their bodies, souls, and minds undergo complete changes.

Everything about them transcends the limits of mortality. So in a way, death is not something immortals have to worry about.

These changes enhance their overall strength, shaping them into warriors capable of splitting the earth and shaping reality. Of course, the difference between the various ranks of immortality also varies.

However, an Immortal is an Immortal.

Even if the difference is as wide as heaven and earth, they are still Immortals.

Killing them is not that simple at all.

So, for a mortal who shouldn't have the means to even be able to injure an Immortal, somehow ended up killing one...that is just too much to take in.

Of course, Klaus didn't fully kill Korvath. That just wasnt possible in the kind of battle they are fighting.

His Immortal spirit was taken the moment his body died. However, just killing his body is already a big enough achievement.

However, Klaus had to go and poke the hornet's nest. Now, all the Immortals in the competition and a few others who lost their bets simply because they bet against him now want his head.

Klaus didn't seem to mind, though.

He had, after all, come to this Rogue Planet to acquire something that he very much needed. A few immortals losing their millions in bet isnt his problem to worry about.

His issue now is to win both the tournament and the auction so he can acquire the item he came for.

Of course, he can use the Dark Space Company to get all this. However, doing so would defeat the whole purpose of being a warrior.

Warriors strive to grow stronger by pursuing what can help them grow stronger.

Warriors fight over treasures. Some work hard to earn money to buy those they can't fight over, and most even end up dying fighting over treasures.

In essence, seeking treasure is a major part of being a warrior. It teaches one how to fight for what they want, even when the odds are stacked against them.

So if he starts using his connection to the Dark Space Company to get everything, very soon, he will run to his people whenever there is a minor obstacle in his path.

That is not the way of the Paragon.

That wasnt how he had lived his life in the past.

So he wouldn't change now. Of course, if it is impossible to get to, he will ask for help, but for this, he will use the old-fashioned way.

He gets what he wants using his own two hands, and so while this is like diving into the oceans of criminals, Klaus himself is a criminal.

He had lived nine lives, and in each, he stole something precious from the heavens. In a way, the biggest criminal on Planet Yahmir is Klaus.

The only difference between him and these criminals is that he doesn't steal from the poor and innocent.

He has the balls to face the heavens themselves.

His legend, if told, will cause every criminal on the planet at the moment to bow at his feet. He is that legendary, and many didn't even know it.

So while keeping a low profile, simply because the current him is not strong enough to face True Immortals and the rest, Klaus also knew his reputation must spread, and so when he had the chance, he made good use of it.

Naturally, his plans worked because the leaders of the Black Tempest Cartel had noticed him and started taking an interest in him.

Of course, they wouldn't approach him until he had proven himself, but even if he did, unless he won the blood tournament, they wouldn't offer him anything.

In their eyes, everyone is expendable, and with the amount of Immortal souls they collect every week, they have no shortage of slave spirits that they can use to do their bidding.

Klaus is just another potential soul they couldn't wait long enough to harvest.

After Klaus gave a brief interview to the Needle Mistress, he went back to the locker room and began waiting for the next match-up.

Of course, he wasn't the first to win their battle. Two others killed their opponents faster than he did, and there are still those waiting for their turn to fight.

However, one could see the shock on their faces when Klaus walked into the locker room.

Clearly, none of them expected him to win against an Immortal. However, now that he did, they could only see him as someone to be feared at least.

The Real Immortal who tried to mess with him when he first arrived in the locker room was still there when Klaus entered.

This time, it was Klaus who spoke first...

"Try not to die before meeting me. I wouldn't want to miss out on severing the limbs of a Real Immortal and driving a spear made of ice up his ass."

The smile on Klaus's face made a few shift subconsciously.

Although Klaus doesn't have access to all his domains due to the fact that he hasn't awakened all his bloodlines just yet, the three he can harness at the moment are already enough to show how dangerous he is.

Of course, he is deliberately suppressing his killing intent. He is sure that when he uses it, even a True Immortal will be left at his mercy.

However, since his body cannot handle even 10% of his killing intent just yet, he decided to limit it to only 6%.

His nature as someone who has reincarnated nine times and can harness his past-life bloodlines is already enough to show just what kind of monster he has become.

Klaus took a seat on the side and started to ignore all the stares coming his way. Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

A few minutes after that, the last battle ended. The next match-up was quickly made, and Klaus was up for his next fight early yet again.

[The master's next opponent is a Real Immortal known as Seraya Velnaris. She is a Stormborn, so naturally, her affinity for lightning will be amplified thanks to the unique nature of this planet.

From what I managed to find on her from the Uniweb, she is known by many as The Storm Siren. She was once a prodigy of the Stormborn's elite Skyblade Order, a powerful warrior organization for lightning users.

She mastered electro-form manipulation at age 25 and became the youngest assassin to learn the lost style: Silent Thunder.

But she was exiled after killing a council elder who tried to force himself on her.

The Black Tempest Cartel recruited her, and for thousands of years now, she has been killing for them. Along the line, her mindset started to change, and on her hands now are thousands of the blood of innocents.]

Klaus looked at the silver-haired lady staring back at him and sighed inwardly.

'Many didn't choose to be bad. It was situations that made them so. However, since this is a death match, she can only blame herself for choosing the dark path.'

Klaus wasn't about to show sympathy to her.

This is a death match after all.

Soon, the two of them are facing each other in the arena, ready to battle.
