“Master! I really didn’t know that my opponent today was going to be you. They only told me that today was the day that I would receive the title of the strongest contestant from you. I did not expect to fight you! It’s all my fault. Please kill me!”
Ebenezer did not know the reason at first but when he found out that his opponent was the master who had taught him assassination techniques, he lost his fighting spirit completely.
An assassin could kill any target mercilessly. This was the foundation of his strength.
However, if the target was not the person that he wanted to kill and was one of his family and friends, his strength would reduce greatly!
Ebenezer was a qualified assassin. He knew that when he faced his master, he would have the slightest desire to kill, much less fight.
Vincent turned his head to look at the sky above the arena. Although it was pitch black, he knew that the Ultimate Evil Lord was definitely standing there, waiting for him to make the final decision.
“Cough, cough!”
A soft cough resounded throughout the entire arena. All the audience raised their heads to look because they knew that it was the voice of the Ultimate Evil Lord.
“Fire Asura! I am very satisfied with your strength, but if you want to become the pride of the Arena of Life and Death and the capital of Ultimate Evil, you are still one step away. The killing intent in your eyes is still not enough! At this moment, your opponent is the person closest to you in the entire Arena of Life and Death. If you can still act decisively when facing him, you will grow and become a true warrior in the future! I can now make a promise in public. As long as you kill him and obtain the final victory, you and Irene will manage my Arena of Life and Death together. As for the type of business that you want to do in the capital of Ultimate Evil, you can do whatever you want. I will never interfere! The only restriction is that you are not allowed to leave the capital of Ultimate Evil without my permission. Otherwise, you will have the highest status and authority other than me. This is a promise that I have never made to anyone since the establishment of the capital of Ultimate Evil. You can decide for yourself!”
After that, the Ultimate Evil Lord did not speak again.
The audience outside the arena gasped when they heard that. The audience who came to watch the match was very different from the past. This was because they were representatives of the Bard Race and Feathered Monster Race. There were also representatives of the Evil Spirit Race such as Adolphus, as well as many nobles from the capital of Ultimate Evil. They had all come to watch the freedom battle of Fire Asura.
Even though some of them had been severely punished by the Ultimate Evil Lord, they still had the desire to recruit Vincent in their hearts.
After all, a talent who possessed divine-level abilities and could advance by leaps and bounds in cultivation was someone worth recruiting no matter what price they had to pay.
However, at that moment, a sense of helplessness suddenly rose in their hearts. If Vincent chose to personally end his own disciple’s life in exchange for his freedom, then he would be reduced to a killing tool that had no bottom line. If they recruited someone like him as a subordinate, there would probably be a day when he would stab them in the back. They would then lose the value of them working together.
Therefore, whether or not to recruit the Fire Asura was once again a problem that the audience had to struggle with.
If Vincent did not kill his disciple, then according to the rules of the Arena of Life and Death, he would only die under the sword of his disciple. However, this way, he and his disciple would have no value at all.
When that time came, the Arena of Life and Death would still be calm and peaceful. The entire capital of the Ultimate Evil would still be under the rule of the Ultimate Evil Lord. It was as if nothing had changed and no waves had appeared!
The glorious future of the Fire Asura that had attracted the attention of tens of thousands of creatures had turned into a moon mirage. It had become empty talk!
Vincent withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Ebenezer. The corners of his mouth suddenly curled into a cruel smile. He sighed softly and said, “Disciple! Do you still remember what I said to you the last time we met?”
Ebenezer nodded solemnly and said, “Master said that the next time we meet, we will definitely give each other a surprise!”
“Well said!”
Vincent nodded and continued, “Now is the time! Raise your arms and have a real fight with me! Let me see your growth over the past few days, and today I will show you what a real fight is!”
Ebenezer was shocked and asked in disbelief, “Master, do you want to force me to fight with you for that so-called freedom? If today’s victory is so important to you, please take my life directly, I have no complaints!”
Vincent shook his head. He pointed to the sky and said, “Freedom, living, today is not important to you and me! From now on, f*ck the Arena of Life and Death, f*ck the rules, and f*ck the Ultimate Evil Lord! Do not care about any external factors! In the arena, there is only you and I, master and disciple. We will use the way of a warrior to resolve the matter between the two of us! If I die at your hands, then I have no complaints. To have a disciple like you, I will die in peace. But if you die at my hands, I will remember you forever!”
The high-ranking nobles in the audience could not help but sigh helplessly when they heard Vincent’s words. They muttered, “Fire Asura, in the end, he still chose that path! But if you think about it carefully, you can probably understand why. After all, there is only one path in front of him. If the Ultimate Evil Lord wants to control you, he will never give you a chance!”
On the top floor, the Ultimate Evil Lord looked at Vincent who had just scolded him. There was an extremely confident smile on his face.
Irene, who was standing behind him, could not help but ask worriedly, “Fire Asura just scolded you. Are you angry?”
“No!”
The Ultimate Evil Lord shook his head repeatedly and said happily, “If he wants to vent his emotions, let him be! As long as he decides to wave his butcher knife at his disciple, I can forgive him for the rest!”
Irene could not help but ask again, “What if the Fire Asura gives up?”
The Ultimate Evil Lord shook his head and sighed, “Then he can go to hell! Ever since the capital of Ultimate Evil was established, do you think that only one Fire Asura has appeared? In fact, almost every once in a while, a genius like the Fire Asura would appear in the Arena of Life and Death. However, such geniuses have their own pride. No matter what, they will not submit so easily to me. Some only want to maintain a cooperative relationship with me, and some even want to take the opportunity to overthrow my rule! But nothing that they wanted to do here could be hidden from me, so I killed them all! Today’s performance from the Fire Asura was very close to what I had expected!”
After hearing this, Irene looked at the vicious and crazy evil lord. She could not help but frown. This was because she did not know what else she could do to help Vincent through this disaster.
