Chapter 22 - Killing Is a Must

Seeing such a scene, victory and defeat no longer seemed so important. Instead, it made people feel listless.

Zhuo Bufan came in front of Song Chenxing and asked with a serious expression, "Will it be the same between us and the Demon Race?"

Song Chenxing had a serious look on his face. It was obvious that what had just happened was beyond his expectations.

"It's not just the demon race. Any race will display such destructive tendencies towards us. It's just that the demon race is specifically targeting us."

Before coming, Zhuo Bufan still thought in his heart that he could easily win a round today, but he no longer thought so after seeing this.

After personally witnessing two more arena battles, it was fortunate that the casualties weren't high. Within the acceptable range, when it was the humans' turn to fight, they were all a bit worried that they would encounter demons.

The demons were tyrannical and loved slaughter. They also had a relatively clear goal. They didn't even spare a glance at the races that would not help improve their abilities.

Thus, it appeared as if hunting humans was the most important thing in their lives.

Fortunately, they hadn't encountered any of them in the previous matches. Perhaps it was because the humans had encountered many different races in the last two days, thus they mostly matched up with opponents of the same race today.

There were naturally no battles between fellow clansmen. Usually, when one saw that the opponent was not within one's capabilities, they would simply surrender and admit defeat.

They were quite harmonious and could even hold hands and chat after leaving the arena.

In Zhuo Bufan's eyes, this was what he called the benign arena mode, not like what happened just now.

After Tripitaka returned victorious, it was time for Zhuo Bufan to go on stage. He could not think that he could also obtain good luck just because the others met the same race.

Transporting to the arena, Zhuo Bufan had already changed his armor before it even started. Now, no matter what sort of powerful offensive weapons his opponent had, it had already become unimportant in his eyes.

Indeed, the decision to make the Immovable Radiant King Armor was the proper choice.

When he saw the opponent he needed to challenge, Zhuo Bufan let out a slight sigh of relief. It turned out to be the kind and adorable elf race.

Looking at it flying up and down, Zhuo Bufan could not bear to make a move to target it. He was just thinking if they could have a friendly match, but he did not expect arrows to immediately fly towards him when the match started.

And it was even three arrows at once!

"Don't you all like peace? Why did you attack the moment you arrived!"

Zhuo Bufan did not dodge either. He put his hands on his waist and went forward, wanting to ask in person for an explanation, but the elf thought that he was going to attack like this, and flew up to dodge with a whoosh.

"Get down!"

"Do you understand me?!"

"I told you to come down!"

Due to the language barrier between the two races, it was very difficult to communicate normally. No matter how Zhuo Bufan jumped around below, the elf directly ignored him.

Due to its size, the arrows shot by the elf were not very big, only about 20 centimeters in length.

Zhuo Bufan, who was wearing armor, did not put this matter in his eyes either. He waited until the elves were so tired that they could not catch their breath before striking back at them.

The Ice Fire Magestaff pointed towards the sky as countless icicles rained down.

Seeing this, the elf hurriedly dodged, but in the face of such dense attacks, dodging alone was far from enough. Not only was its wings injured, it also took an icicle to the knee.

All of a sudden, the elf landed in a sorry state.

"Are you cold? Do you want something warm?"

This sentence sounded like concern at first glance, but to Zhuo Bufan, this was not him showing concern. He did not care what the elf thought at this point.

What he wanted was to catch the opponent off guard and then win this match.

After the little icicle, countless small fireballs landed. When the elf saw this, it panicked and did not know which way to go. Then, it actually directly charged towards Zhuo Bufan.

It was as if it wanted to die with him.

Facing such a scene, Zhuo Bufan did not panic either. What can a mere little elf do to me!?

Coincidentally, he was carrying a quiver on his back. The arrows in the quiver had also been specially processed. It was just nice to test whether they were effective on the elves!

"Little guy, I'm sorry!"

The moment he nocked the arrow and pulled the bow, the elf realized the folly of its actions. However, there was no room for regret!

Zhuo Bufan's hand loosened, and the arrow laced with poison shot out.

Under the circumstances where the fireballs fell in all directions, it was impossible for the elf to dodge. In the end, it could only forcefully take the arrow.

Then, it could no longer fly and fell to the ground.

But what Zhuo Bufan did not expect was that the arrow laced with poison could actually be fatal.

He had killed an elf with his own hands. At first, he only wanted to force him to retreat, not kill him.

However, the outcome was already decided. The elf was automatically teleported out of the arena, along with Zhuo Bufan.

When he returned to the spectators' area, Zhuo Bufan was more or less a little stupefied. This was not the result he wanted. Although the elves shot arrows that hit true to their mark every time, that was only in retaliation.

"Don't feel guilty. No matter who it is who participates in the arena, they must be prepared to die."

Zhuo Bufan raised his head to look at Song Chenxing. He did not refute the latter, and only replied, "Is that really the case?"

"Believe me, everyone has gone through the same process you did. Have you forgotten that we lost to the elves yesterday?"

Because the person was seriously injured, he automatically withdrew from the group arena. Thinking of this, Zhuo Bufan suddenly let go of his guilt. In this place, apart from being kind to his own race, he had to be indifferent to what happened to the other races.

He could only hope that in the future, their two races would never meet again.

However, in the arena matches that took place after, there was still a phenomenon of races massacring each other that had not happened in the past few days. Zhuo Bufan watched them all.

He understood Song Chenxing's words even more deeply. Perhaps killing was the most important method one had to master on this battlefield.

The day's arena competition finally ended. Zhuo Bufan prepared to go back and properly digest what he saw and heard today.

"Young Benefactor Zhuo, wait for me!"

Zhuo Bufan turned around and saw that it was actually Tripitaka.

"Master, what's the matter?"

The monk had a sneaky look on his face as he first observed his surroundings to see if there were any suitable eyes or ears before taking out a big treasure from his bosom.

Demon Crystal!

"Last night, I suddenly discovered a Six-Legged Beast in my territory. Can you forge an armor for me?"

Zhuo Bufan sized up Tripitaka from head to toe before saying with a sigh, "Master, what use do you have for armor? Who can even pierce through your Buddha Aura Illumination?"

Hearing Zhuo Bufan dig at him like this, Tripitaka chuckled "I've never been able to surpass the fifth round in the group arena. My Buddha Aura Illumination actually doesn't do much damage."

After roughly understanding Tang Seng's needs, Zhuo Bufan took the demonic crystal he handed over and said, "Alright, I'll make one for you when I get back. I really hope that this demonic crystal was mine instead."

During this period of time, Zhuo Bufan almost went crazy thinking about getting another Six-Legged Beast. There was a limit to how much he could bring out the power of the Ice Fire Magestaff. If he encountered stronger opponents in the future, he could only die.

It was best to get a Devil Piercing Spear, the spear was a King's way!

Tripitaka muttered in response, "Amitabha. The Six-Legged Beast only appears once in a long while. It will take at least some time before it reappears. Young Benefactor Zhuo, you can't be anxious."
