In the fourth Deathmatch Hall, within the grand iron cage.

Chen Jiantao and the Mad Demon stood opposite each other, while Mo'er Chi leaned against the walls of the cage, silently watching the two.

"Mr. Dragon King, aren't you worried about your brother?" Huo Huade chuckled as he looked towards Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen spoke with an expressionless face, "If Xue Yu dies, every person present in the Grand Beast Arena will be buried with him; not a single soul related to Fiery Bird will be spared. If Xue Yu lives, then dismissing Fiery Bird will suffice!"

Huo Huade was immediately stunned upon hearing this, staring blankly at Jiang Chen.

The meaning of Jiang Chen's words was very clear—if Chen Jiantao died here, Jiang Chen would immediately launch an extermination against Fiery Bird, regardless of the cost, even within the Grand Beast Arena. He was prepared to ensure that Fiery Bird and all associated with it could not escape. And if Chen Jiantao won, then Jiang Chen would merely eradicate Fiery Bird outside the city.

But wasn't this boast far too arrogant?

Did he have that much confidence in overpowering Fiery Bird? Especially just after exterminating the Dark Spider the day before.

This was too audacious!

"Mr. Dragon King, you're not taking us Dark Night Angels seriously enough," Luo Sha said gravely, an unfriendly look upon her face as she watched Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen glanced indifferently at Luo Sha, "If I weren't taking you seriously, I wouldn't be sitting here watching today; rather, I'd have taken the both of you down directly. Simply for daring to enslave Fei'er for many years as a slave in the Grand Beast Arena, I would have wiped out your Dark Night Angels immediately!"

"Quite the boastful talk!" Luo Sha said icily.

A streak of blood flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes as he stared directly into Luo Sha's.

Luo Sha's heart trembled, feeling as though she had fallen into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. An overwhelming fear seized her entire body, causing it to violently shake!

"Miss Luo Sha! Miss Luo Sha!" Huo Huade sensed something was amiss with Luo Sha and urgently called out to her.

Jiang Chen lightly raised his eyebrows, dispersing the cultivation technique and returning his eyes to normal, silently muttering to himself:

What's going on? Why is Luo Sha so afraid of me?

No, it isn't me she fears, but me when the cultivation technique is active.

What is this situation? Why do I feel... as if my cultivation technique has a suppressing effect on Luo Sha?

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The moment Jiang Chen withdrew his cultivation technique, Luo Sha snapped back to reality, gasping for air in great heaves and looking at Jiang Chen with fear in her eyes. She quickly turned her head away, as if she couldn't bear to make eye contact again.

Huo Huade looked at Luo Sha with a perplexed expression, his brow deeply furrowed. He then stared directly at Jiang Chen and said deliberately, "Mr. Dragon King, I want to know what's wrong with Luo Sha?"

"Mr. Huo Huade, you should ask her about that; I'm not sure what's wrong with her either!" Jiang Chen replied with a confused look.

Observing Jiang Chen's expression closely, Huo Huade was sure Jiang Chen wasn't lying. He, too, looked bewilderedly at Luo Sha.

"I'll go back to the queen; you keep watch here!" Luo Sha said somewhat absentmindedly, then turned and ran out of the Deathmatch Hall as if fleeing.

"What are you two doing? What are you waiting for to start?" A shout echoed, and everyone turned to look at the grand iron cage.

Inside the iron cage, the two who stood opposite each other remained still, motionless. Mo'er Chi was impatiently urging them on.

Chen Jiantao looked somewhat puzzled as he turned to Mo'er Chi, "Aren't you the referee? Shouldn't you be calling the start?"

"Heh, what are you thinking? As soon as the door to the grand iron cage locked, your deathmatch had already begun. I'm here, simply waiting to open the door. Deathmatch—what do you need a referee for!" Mo'er Chi said with a laugh, clearly understanding that Chen Jiantao was unaware of the rules of a deathmatch, but as for the Mad Demon...

Mo'er Chi glanced at the Mad Demon and a disdainful look appeared in his eyes.

The Mad Demon was aware of the rules of the deathmatch, but he had lost his confidence, hoping to respond to change with constancy, even praying that the later the fight arrived, the better.

Mo'er Chi also discerned that the Mad Demon had lost his will to fight, looking at him as if he were already a dead man.

In fact, it couldn't be helped for Kuang Mo; suddenly hearing that Long Yan had wiped out the Dark Spider Mercenary Corps, any organization that was not among the top ten mercenary corps of the world would be shocked. A group like Fiery Bird, which had just missed being in the top hundred, would absolutely never provoke such a team.

But now they had stirred up trouble, and in such a fierce manner, Kuang Mo was filled with dread. Even after Fiery Bird tried to pep him up, he still couldn't muster the courage to fight.

Whoosh!

Having understood the rules, Chen Jiantao no longer waited, his figure flashed as he dashed toward Kuang Mo.

The moment Chen Jiantao charged out, Mo'er Chi knew the battle was over.

From Chen Jiantao's being, he saw a high fighting spirit and combat skills without any fancy frills. His opponent, with the same level of manifest strength, had no will to fight—the outcome of this battle was already determined!

…

Bang!

Following a muffled sound, Kuang Mo's body fell to the ground, and Chen Jiantao turned to look at Mo'er Chi.

Mo'er Chi didn't say a thing, just walked out of the large iron cage.

Chen Jiantao followed calmly.

"Let's go, time to rest. We've got a tough battle ahead!"

Jiang Chen approached Chen Jiantao with a quiet sigh of relief. Although he was fully confident in Chen Jiantao's victory, he couldn't say he wasn't anxious. Otherwise, his demeanor wouldn't have been so overbearing when he spoke with Huo Huade.

The group turned and made their way toward the Deathmatch Hall's exit. As they passed Fiery Bird, Xuan Long made a throat-slitting gesture at him.

"They won! Long Yan's people won!"

"Didn't expect the win to be so easy. Looks like we need to reassess Long Yan's strength!"

"Reassess what? Just look at the outcome of the fight between Long Yan and Fiery Bird and you'll know!"

"Is that Dragon King the boss of Long Yan?"

"It must be, right? Didn't you see even the leader of Long Yan is so respectful in front of him?"

As Jiang Chen and the others left, the spectator seats erupted into noise again.

"What do you think? That Kuang Mo was so useless, I couldn't tell anything from that!" After Jiang Chen and the others left, Huo Huade whispered to Mo'er Chi beside him.

A thoughtful look flashed in Mo'er Chi's eyes as he responded softly, "We can be sure that Xue Yu must be an active Cavalryman, but..."

"What is it?" Huo Huade looked puzzledly toward Mo'er Chi.

"Xue Yu's fighting style differs from any Flame Dragon Kingdom Cavalryman I have seen before—more efficient, more straight to the point. It feels like a technique even stronger than the famous 'one-hit kill' of Flame Dragon Kingdom. Though the battle was too short to tell much, I do have that impression!" Mo'er Chi said uncertainly.

Huo Huade's eyes flickered, and he clapped Mo'er Chi on the shoulder, "Alright, stop mulling over it. The battle was indeed too short. Tell the brothers at the four city gates to be more alert. If Long Yan goes to war with Fiery Bird, try to get a video of their fight so we can study it later."

"Yes!" Mo'er Chi nodded in agreement.

…

In a decrepit hotel, within a duplex suite.

Bang!

With a muffled sound, Luo Sha, face full of panic, pushed open the bedroom door.

Dark Night Queen slightly frowned, a cold murderous intent flashed in her eyes. When she saw it was Luo Sha, the killing intent vanished and she sat up straight, her tone grave, "What happened?"

"Lord Xue, Lord Xue has appeared!" Luo Sha blurted out, panic still written all over his face.
