The main attraction of the Wizard Arena is combat between wizards or between wizards and various magical creatures and demons.

The content is extremely bloody and realistic, making it a rare entertainment program for the people of Harbor City.

The tickets here are very cheap, costing only five magic stones.

Because the main income source of the arena is betting on outcomes, the low-ticket price is just to draw more people in to play.

They fear you won't play, not that you'll earn money, hence the five magic stone ticket price.

Duke wanted to go in and take a look, primarily to observe the combat styles between wizards; he could learn something from it.

He has almost never seen many combats between wizards and lacks experience in this area.

Vivian also had this intention, as Thorn Holy Tower does not currently offer training in real combat, making this an excellent opportunity for observation and learning.

Both started their practice from the most basic Knight's Breathing Technique, and they already have rich combat experience, placing more emphasis on actual combat.

Duke then bought two tickets and stepped through the Flame Gate.

After passing through the Flame Gate, there is a long corridor adorned with murals of many battles between wizards and demons.

Behind the hallway is a rest lounge with many small sofas for a few people to rest and chat privately.

There is also a bar to the side where some bartenders are busy, with glasses occasionally spewing flames or snowflakes.

After ordering two special Ice and Fire Wines, Duke carried the glasses through the lounge to the Wizard Arena.

Upon passing a large door, their view suddenly opened up to a vast prairie landscape.

Duke had not expected such a large space inside; the prairie seemed endless, with distant mountain ranges visible. It was unclear whether it was genuinely so vast or if there was a boundary.

A gigantic arena was built on the prairie ahead. From its design, it seemed ancient, like a building from thousands of years ago.

Duke and Vivian ascended the long stairs to the top of the arena. Looking down, the scale of the arena exceeded imagination.

It could accommodate at least 200,000 people, with a massive competing ground below.

At that moment, many people were already seated in the arena, likely around five or six thousand.

Such a number took only a small portion of the seats, with many vacant spots still available.

Duke and Vivian continued down to seats closer to the arena, where there were fewer people around.

These seats were closer to the fight ground, offering a clearer view of the events inside the arena.

The arena was protected by the Witch Array, so there was no worry about the audience being affected.

A somewhat lean bald man, bare-chested, loudly shouted in the middle of the arena: "Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the Wizard Arena! Let me present tonight's appetizer, Level 1 Mage Navi versus Level 1 Magical Beast Moonlight Wolf!"

"To maximize the Moonlight Wolf's combat power, we specifically adjusted today's weather to a full moon!"

The bald man's pronunciation of the word "full moon" was particularly drawn out, showcasing his impressive lung capacity.

As he finished speaking, the sky in this space started to change.

The clouds in the night sky slowly dispersed, and a full moon emerged, emanating a gentle glow.

"A Moonlight Wolf, it's a powerful Level 1 magical beast whose strength can greatly increase during a full moon," Vivian quickly recalled the relevant information about the Moonlight Wolf.

Duke was not familiar with the Moonlight Wolf as he hadn't looked deeply into Level 1 magical beast information.

"Start betting! Start betting! Ladies and gentlemen, you can participate in betting with the tickets in your hand by placing magic stones on the side you want to bet on," the bald man continued loudly, his voice echoing throughout the arena.

Duke then closely examined the ticket in his hand and noticed some changes to the content printed on it.

A male wizard appeared on the left side of the ticket, and a Moonlight Wolf appeared on the right side, with a black vortex emerging on both sides.

Inserting magic stones into the black vortexes counts as placing a bet, and if your bet wins, you'll directly receive your ticket from the vortex.

For those who frequently play at the Wizard Arena, the experience of a black vortex spitting out magic stones in a frenzy is enough to drive them crazy.

However, betting always involves wins and losses, with some going bankrupt here every day.

Duke didn't plan to bet too heavily, preferring to play around since his primary aim was learning.

He glanced at the information about Navi on the ticket. He was a Level 1 Crystalized Wizard, considered very powerful among Level 1 Mages.

A Level 1 Mage is divided into three tiers: Gaseous, Liquidation, and Crystalization.

From Gaseous to Crystalization, each tier represents a significant strength difference, with a Level 1 Crystalized Wizard being the highest among Level 1 Mages.

The ticket also documented some of Navi's battle achievements, noting that he had defeated several powerful Level 1 magical beasts.

He was not a slave to the Wizard Arena, just someone here purely to earn money.

"Who do you favor?" Vivian asked.

Duke thought for a moment and said, "I still favor Navi. Though the Moonlight Wolf under a full moon is powerful, Navi likely isn't a reckless person; he should have some trump cards as a Crystalized Wizard."

In the Wizard Arena, death means death, and the arena bears no responsibility. Navi had already signed relevant contracts.

After the bald man hyped both sides, the odds displayed on the ticket stabilized at 1.7 to 1.5 after fluctuating.

It seemed most people favored the Moonlight Wolf. Duke considered for a moment, then bet ten Level 1 magic stones, Vivian doing the same.

They were just looking for a bit of fun and hadn't planned on seriously earning from it.

Duke calculated the odds on both sides, realizing the arena's house cut was substantial, ensuring it lost nothing.

After the bald man's warming speech, both Navi and the Moonlight Wolf entered from the east and west sides of the arena.

The Moonlight Wolf evidently possessed considerable intelligence, fully aware of the arena's rules, and didn't rush to attack. Instead, it calmly observed Navi, knowing this was its opponent for the night.

Navi wore black armor all over, resembling a knight more than a wizard.

"It's crafted from Magic Metal," Vivian recognized at once.

Magic Metal is very expensive, and using it to forge armor is even more luxurious.

This Navi could make money in the arena, clearly having some skills up his sleeve.
