Irene looked at Vincent with some worry after hearing his evaluation. She wanted to say something, but she did not know how to start.
Vincent turned his head to look at Irene and said faintly, “Go and tell the Ultimate Evil Lord that I don’t need his help. I will not be his slave!”
Irene did not directly stand up and leave. Instead, she continued to sit beside Vincent with a hesitant look.
“What? Are you still trying to persuade me, or are you worried about me?” asked Vincent with a frown.
Irene pursed her lips as if she had made a decision. She then said, “You can continue to delay your decision for a period of time. The Ultimate Evil Lord has given me a period of time to persuade you. Perhaps you can rely on this time to continue to grow stronger. If you can advance to a level 30 creature fast, then you can obtain your freedom ahead of time!”
Vincent shook his head and said firmly and calmly, “It doesn’t matter. If the Ultimate Evil Lord really wants to control me, he will not let me off even if I advance to a level 30 creature!”
Irene stood up and said to Vincent, “No! The rules of the capital of Ultimate Evil are superior to all existences! Everyone must abide by the rules here, including the Ultimate Evil Lord, because this is the condition for the Ultimate Evil capital to continue to prosper!”
Vincent frowned slightly and repeatedly pondered, “The rules of the capital of Ultimate Evil must be followed by every creature including the Lord of Ultimate Evil. This might be an opportunity!”
Irene looked at the expression on Vincent’s face. His serious expression had gradually turned into a sly smile. She suddenly felt somewhat at a loss.
Vincent raised his head and asked Irene, “Can you tell me about the rules of the Arena of Life and Death and the rules of the capital of Ultimate Evil?”
Irene nodded and said, “Yes, this is the common knowledge of all citizens. It is not a secret!”
Irene then proceeded to introduce the rules of the Arena of Life and Death and rules in the capital of Ultimate Evil to Vincent.
As the capital of Ultimate Evil could accommodate thousands of races in the Black Hole, the rules were very violent. However, it was also quite simple at the same time.
For example, fighting was not allowed in the capital of Ultimate Evil, but they could invite each other to fight in the Black Hole, or apply to settle it in the Arena of Life and Death.
If they wanted to survive in the capital of Ultimate Evil, they needed to use a currency called dark crystal. All transactions in the capital of Ultimate Evil had to be settled with dark crystals, and they had to pay a part of the commission to the Lord of Ultimate Evil.
Anyone who submitted an excessive share of the commission could become a citizen of the capital of Ultimate Evil. As long as they did not do anything to destroy the capital of Ultimate Evil, they would not be punished.
In addition to these basic rules, the capital of Ultimate Evil also allowed the other existences to adopt the rules. This included some intelligent merchants who collected information on the capital of Ultimate Evil for the outside world. As long as they paid taxes, they would also be protected by the rules of the capital of Ultimate Evil!
The rules of the Arena of Life and Death were much more rigorous and complicated compared to the rules of the capital of Ultimate Evil.
This was because the Arena of Life and Death needed to attract more spectators. It had to ensure that every battle was exciting. Thus, a series of rules were born.
Each duel required two participants to be at least five levels apart in order to avoid a one-sided battle!
Each participant could make some requests to the arena after winning ten battles in a row, such as enjoying a feast or be in the company of beautiful women. They could also ask for other things that could be enjoyed. Other than gaining freedom, any conditions could also be agreed to, because this could stimulate every contestant’s desire for victory!
After listening to all the rules, Vincent nodded and stood up. He looked at Irene and asked, “You seem to be here to help me. I’m very curious why you want to help me.”
Irene looked at Vincent with a complicated expression and said softly, “Because you let me see the possibility of the Spirit Race becoming powerful. I hope that you can obtain freedom and then bring me to the world you mentioned!”
Vincent looked into Irene’s eyes carefully, as if he wanted to see if she was lying. After a long time, he nodded and said, “Okay! I can promise you! But I need your help next!”
Irene nodded and promised Vincent.
After the two of them chatted for a while, Irene knocked on the door of the room. The manager who was guarding the door immediately opened the door to let Irene out.
Irene’s expression was as cold as before. Under the watchful eyes of all the managers and contestants, she slowly left the corridor.
“That woman, once I have the chance, I will definitely press her under my body, and then…”
After Irene left, a prisoner immediately rushed to the glass of the room and described the fantasy in his heart.
The manager did not stop him. This was because from the bottom of their hearts, they looked down on that woman who did not have any strength other than being the foster daughter of the Ultimate Evil Lord.
Vincent looked at the scene unfold in front of him in silence. It was as if he had understood why Irene had made such a decision.
“The desire for power seems to be the pursuit of all the races in the Black Hole!”
Vincent sighed and sat back down on the bed. He closed his eyes and began to cultivate.
As Vincent had activated the second layer of the Flaming Sun Divine Body, he could use the flames to increase the speed of his cultivation greatly. Therefore, Vincent was not willing to waste even the slightest bit of time. He wanted to work hard to increase his cultivation.
He started off as an ordinary human cultivator. He had several abilities that could double his cultivation speed. Currently, his cultivation speed was comparable to the talent of any Black Hole race, and it was even more efficient than any other race!
Irene quietly walked back to the Ultimate Evil Lord who was on the top floor. She lowered her head, her face full of shame.
The Ultimate Evil Lord looked at Irene’s reflection on the glass. He could not help but ask her, “What? You’ve already met him? He didn’t give you a good look?”
Irene immediately replied, “No! He directly rejected me, and he also rejected you!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord frowned. He was clearly not expecting this situation. He could not help but ask, “Why? What right does he have to reject me?”
Irene was silent for a moment. She looked at the piece of paper that Vincent had handed over to her and repeated, “He said that he disdained to cooperate with any races, because even so, he could continue to win, and even become the second contestant to win a hundred duels and advance to a level 30 creature!”
“He’s delusional! In my arena, how can he be so sure? Is he worthy?”
The Ultimate Evil Lord roared angrily. This was because he could not allow a contestant in the Arena of Life and Death under his control to have the confidence to win every match!
This was contempt for his supreme position!
Suddenly, the Ultimate Evil Lord had a thought. That spirit should not be his slave, he deserved to die!
“Think of a way to let him die!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord turned to look at Irene and spoke in a crazed manner.
Irene’s expression did not change. She asked respectfully, “Should I arrange for someone to execute him now?”
When the Ultimate Evil Lord saw Irene’s reaction, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. It was as if he could not understand why Irene, who had previously shown concern for Vincent, was currently completely unconcerned about Vincent’s life and death.
This time, the Ultimate Evil Lord began to suspect that Irene had betrayed him and was working together with Vincent.
The Ultimate Evil Lord frowned at Irene and said with a sinister smile, “That’s right! Bring the others over now and execute him immediately!”
Irene did not hesitate at all. She nodded and turned to leave.
The Ultimate Evil Lord once again fell into confusion. If Irene really betrayed him, then she should at least think of a way to protect Vincent’s life. However, looking at her current appearance, it seemed that she was more willing to let Vincent die than herself!
“Wait!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord was puzzled. He suddenly called out to Irene and said in a deep voice, “Forget it! This is not in accordance with the rules of the Arena of Life and Death. Let’s use the rules to kill him!”
Irene stopped and turned to look at him. She said indifferently, “But the rules of the arena states that we can’t make things difficult for him. Every seven days, there will be one opponent. The level gap cannot exceed five levels. For Fire Asura who can break through five levels in seven days, this would not be difficult at all!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord shook his head repeatedly and said, “Everyone has misunderstood. No one can jump five levels in seven days. He was only affected by the Weak Water Race’s soul curse and his cultivation was sealed! But you did remind me that once every seven days, so it’s impossible to let him die!”
Irene suddenly took the initiative to say, “I have an idea!”
“Huh?”
The Ultimate Evil Lord looked at Irene with a worried face. He really could not understand what his adopted daughter was thinking. Even if she did not fall for Vincent, she would not be so anxious to let Vincent die.
Without waiting for the Ultimate Evil to speak, Irene started to speak again, “A duel every seven days is not the rule of the Arena of Life and Death. It’s just that there are too many contestants, so we made this rule in order to give all the contestants a chance to go on stage! We can let Vincent have a duel every day and not give him any free time to improve and train. Even if he doesn’t get beaten to death by his opponent, he will die of exhaustion under such a hellish schedule!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord nodded repeatedly and could not help but exclaim, “Good! Good! Good! As expected of my daughter. Your method is really too sharp, too cruel!”
Irene smiled slightly and said with her head lowered, “Then I’ll go make the arrangements now!”
“Yes, go! I’m looking forward to it!” said the Ultimate Evil Lord whilst laughing.
Irene turned around and left. A worried expression immediately appeared on her face. She could no longer conceal it.
She had already done what Vincent had asked her to do, but she did not know whether Vincent would be able to hold on under such a cruel competition schedule!
A day passed in the blink of an eye. The newly announced schedule quickly attracted countless spectators.
This was because Fire Asura, who had just risen to fame in the arena the day before, was once again placed on the new schedule!
The door of the advanced participants’ room slowly opened. The two managers said in a deep voice, “Fire Asura, it’s your turn!”
Vincent opened his eyes and stopped cultivating. He asked with a calm expression, “Didn’t I just appear yesterday? Why is it my turn again?”
“Hmph, this doesn’t violate the rules of the Arena of Life and Death. You’d better pray that you can come back alive today!” said the manager with a sneer.
