Arion still didn't understand one thing, "But can't we decide our own stakes? I mean, I can just play it safe at first and bet a small amount, right?"
Old Zi shook his head and explained, "No, there is a minimum stake you have to place, and the way the whole arena works might be different than you think. Winning just once is not enough. You have to win a set number of matches to collect all the earnings you won. If you even lose one before winning the required number of matches, then you will lose everything you earned before and what you bet as well."
Arion took a deep breath as now he at least got some idea why the Zero Arena was so dangerous and could also make someone leave the arena with "zero" assets.
Not only would one have to risk injuries and keep on fighting, but at the same time make sure that they don't lose a single game.
