Chapter 229: Chapter 229: There Is Only One Thing in My Life

Inside the underground octagonal cage in Genosha Calivia, Finn stood expressionless in the largest octagonal cage, surrounded by a crowd of excited and frenzied spectators.

Shannon stood beside him without a hint of worry, he had great confidence in Finn's abilities.

He had come from the Stone Kingdom this time, partly to see his long-lost friend and partly to secure a spot for the Yarutania hidden treasure auction.

Tonight's auction went very smoothly, and he successfully secured a spot.

Half of the mission was already accomplished, and now it was time to watch his friend successfully challenge "Reaper's Scythe."

In Shannon's mind, if Finn failed in this challenge, no one else in Genosha would be able to succeed!

At that moment, a few people pushed through the crowded audience and approached the octagonal cage.

The bald man who had initially grabbed the microphone took a document from the hands of a bystander, then stepped into the octagonal cage and said to Finn:

"You understand the rules, sign this death agreement, and the fight will begin shortly."

Finn calmly accepted the document, examined it carefully, and upon finding no issues, signed his name.

Seeing this, the bald man wore a hint of excitement on his face as he turned around, raised the microphone again, and shouted: "This young man has signed his name! Ladies and gentlemen, the bloody and brutal fight is about to commence!"

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, three gold medalists from the underground octagonal cage slowly entered the cage.

Then the bald man closed the cage door and shouted fervently: "I declare the fight officially started!"

In the next moment,

Finn's figure shot forward like a bullet, directly launching an attack on the nearest level four Beast Master!

His strategy was to eliminate one enemy as quickly as possible, if he could achieve that, the remaining two enemies would no longer pose a threat to him!

However, the three gold medalists had extensive combat experience and immediately recognized Finn's intentions.

The gold medalist being attacked was well aware that as long as he could hold Finn off, the fight would soon come to an end!

So, he immediately took a defensive stance, hoping to withstand Finn's attack.

Meanwhile, the other two gold medalists chose not to aid their companion, their sole focus was on one thing!

That was to seize the opportunity while Finn was attacking and unable to defend himself. If they could capitalize on this moment, the combined assault from the two level four Beast Masters would surely injure Finn severely, ending the fight!

"It seems this young man's plan is about to fail. If he were up against an ordinary Beast Master, he would surely succeed, but now he faces three gold medal level four Beast Masters!" the bald man said with a hint of regret.

It was rare for someone to challenge "Reaper's Scythe." and he genuinely hoped Finn would win this fight.

If that happened, the news of a successful challenger would spread throughout Calivia!

Countless people would flock to the underground world to witness this rare challenge! At that time, the ticket sales alone would bring in a considerable amount of gold for the underground octagonal cage!

Just when everyone thought Finn was about to fail, something unexpected happened.

Finn's body shifted direction in a remarkably peculiar manner, changing his attack trajectory!

The audience erupted in bewildered shouts, with someone exclaiming to their companions, "How is this possible? This defies logic!"

"Exactly! How could he do that? He changed his attack direction in an instant without any hesitation, and it looks like he didn't lose any power!"

"I get it! He must have some special combat techniques!"

"Right, that's the only explanation!"

Some quick thinkers realized Finn must have mastered some unique combat technique, and they watched the octagonal cage intently, eager to see what would unfold next.

Under the gaze of the crowd, the nearest level four gold medalist's pupils suddenly contracted.

He had never anticipated that Finn could redirect his attack!

In a split second, Finn's right hand moved at an odd angle, close to his jaw, and with a sudden burst of strength, he knocked the gold medalist to the ground!

Bright red blood sprayed from the level four Beast Master's mouth, splattering in the air.

The audience erupted with cheers and shouts of anger.

"Awesome! He took one down so quickly! This kid is really impressive, I'm glad I bet on him to win!" Stay tuned to M|VL|EM|PY|R

"Damn! What the hell? He got defeated so easily! What kind of gold medal level four Beast Master is this? Too weak!"

"It's fine, there are still two gold medal level four Beast Masters left. There's still hope! I bet on this kid to lose!"

The shouting was loud enough for the live broadcast to pick up every word.

Charles fell into deep thought, Finn's recent attack was indeed unexpected. He initially thought Finn would have some powerful means of attack,

but he didn't expect his opponent to bizarrely change the direction of his attack at such speed without losing any strength!

"This is interesting. I don't need to watch the rest of the fight, those two gold medal level four Beast Masters will probably be defeated soon." Charles thought to himself.

Sure enough, the footage in the live broadcast aligned with his expectations.

In just thirty seconds, the two ace level four Beast Masters were lying on the ground, unconscious and out cold.

Exiting the live stream, Charles continuously simulated in his mind how he would attack and defend if he faced Finn.

Finn was definitely not that simple, merely signing up for the "Reaper's Scythe" fight didn't mean he had revealed all his strength.

To truly understand Finn's capabilities, he would have to wait for the subsequent battles.

Charles felt a twinge of anxiety in his heart because the alchemy material Colton needed was one-of-a-kind, and it couldn't be found anywhere else. Only by successfully passing the "Reaper's Scythe" could he obtain it.

If Finn succeeded in his challenge, even if Charles managed to succeed afterward, he wouldn't be able to get that alchemy material.

At that point, he would have to negotiate with Finn to see if the other party would be willing to trade.

But in that case, the initiative would be in Finn's hands. Charles sighed, he hadn't expected someone to challenge "Reaper's Scythe" before him.

However, since the good thing had already happened, there was no point in dwelling on it.

Successfully passing "Reaper's Scythe" wasn't just for Colton, Charles also wanted to see if he could gather intelligence about the child disappearance case from the Dawn organization.

He was eager to investigate who was involved in that matter!

Now, the task at hand was to quickly grasp his self-created combat techniques and accelerate his physical improvement.

Everything else would have to wait until later.

With that in mind, Charles quickly washed up, lay down in bed, cleared his mind, and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Charles entered the training tower once again without hesitation.

What he didn't know was that, on the networks of Genosha,

what happened last night had become common knowledge, with everyone discussing one topic: Finn's abilities and whether he could successfully pass the "Reaper's Scythe" challenge.

"This Finn looks really strong, but why haven't I heard of him before?"

"He's from Aredale Academy, known as the strongest level four Beast Master, just not very famous, his strength is still impressive."

"Strongest level four Beast Master? That's quite a claim. Charles is also a level four Beast Master, and he hasn't claimed to be the strongest!"

"I actually think Finn is stronger than Charles. You all saw last night's fight, right? He effortlessly took down three gold medal level four Beast Masters! Who else can do that?"

"Charles can do it too! He's been challenging three equally ranked Beast Masters in the Cyber Academy training tower these past few days, he can also pull it off!"

"Please, that's not real combat! I don't believe Charles can do it!"

Soon, the debate over who was stronger, Charles or Finn, quickly dominated headlines across various online media, sparking a lot of curiosity.

Everyone wanted to know about Charles, a rising star hailed as a monster from Cyber Academy,

and Finn, an unknown who suddenly made waves, recognized as the strongest level four Beast Master.

If the two of them were to fight, who would emerge victorious?

Shannon scoffed at the topic, lifting his phone to show Finn the information on the screen. He said, "What's this Charles even worth? You can easily defeat him, right?"

Finn didn't respond, he was focused on his training.

Tonight, the "Reaper's Scythe" challenge would officially begin, and the only opponent he would face was the ace level four Beast Master of the Genosha underground octagonal cage.

He just didn't know which one he would encounter.

Seeing that Finn was ignoring him.

Shannon boredly scrolled through the information on his phone, which was filled with details about the ace Beast Masters in the Genosha underground octagonal cage. Sёarᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"You think it'll be the weakest ace that you'll face today? If they started with the strongest, how would they make any money?" Shannon remarked.

This seemed to pique Finn's interest.

He paused his training, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said firmly, "No matter who it is, nothing will stand in my way!"

Seeing Finn's serious demeanor, Shannon instinctively put down his phone and sighed, "I know you want revenge. Only by joining Dawn will you uncover more hidden information and have a chance to rapidly increase your strength."

"But, Finn, you can't live just for revenge. There will always be other things that give your life meaning."

Finn fell silent. He raised his hands, looking at the scars on them, and slowly spoke, "The only thing in my life is revenge!"
