Chapter 168: Coveting friend's future wife
The biggest taboo in the magic world is asking about other people\'s secrets. That\'s why peak master Shreya didn\'t question Kent\'s ability of pleasure healing. She felt very happy that Kent learned healing in the first place.
Kent actually stayed on Healing Sun Peak to cover his identity as a disciple of Rising Sun Peak. That\'s why Shreya didn\'t feel upset about Kent\'s sudden rise without her serious teaching.
At present, she is preparing things for Kent\'s departure. To keep him safe from hidden dangers, she brought some powerful inscriptions from the sect\'s treasury. Also, she did not question Kent\'s opinion of visiting the Yang family.
"Here, keep this one also. I already spoke with your master, Porus. He instructed you to perceive the fire elemental Dao and learn as many spells as you can from the arcane tome. But one thing is sure… your master is not happy with your extracurricular activities. So, don\'t disappoint him with poor results." Shreya said while handing Kent a golden inscription plate.
Kent accepted everything without uttering another word. He felt very grateful for the trust of Shreya. Even after he created such a commotion, she didn\'t question his sudden abilities.
"If something goes wrong, inform me right away. Don\'t take unnecessary risks." Shreya said in a serious tone and stood up from her seat.
Kent thanked her sincerely with a head bow and took his leave. By the time he came to his residence, the Yang family member is waiting for him on his long beak bird. Kent nodded his head and went inside the room to freshen up before departure.
Inside Sophia is already waiting for him with a serious face. Surprisingly, she did not question him about the Yang family\'s request or the pleasure doctor tag. She personally filled the tub with water and added aromatic herbs. She also selected a new pair of clothes and helped him wear them.
During all this time, she stayed silent without uttering a single word. Before leaving, Kent hugged her dearly and kissed her forehead. Sophia spent a lot of time in his embrace before sending him away with a sad look.
Flying high in the air, Kent\'s Fire Kirin traveled at its full speed with blazing fires. Even the black serpent began gasping for air while keeping up with the Fire Kirin. The Yang family member\'s long-beaked bird was already left behind by miles.
Without caring about him, Kent flew forward. Instead of wasting time, Kent picked up the manual and began reading about the jade silkworm stitching technique.

In a private room that is very close to the large arena, where several dual competitions happen from time to time, Zi Chen sat with a serious face. This big arena is the common fighting place for disciples from different sects.
The names of the top 10 fighters were displayed on the arena entrance, and all these 10 fighters will receive a revenue share from the profits of the arena based on their rank.
Dramatically, the top 5 of these 10 spots belong to the Jade Mountain sect, who were body cultivators specializing in earth element. The next three spots belong to the Eternal Sun sect, and the last two are from the Autumn Wind sect.
Zi Chen holds the 7th position in that top 10 list, and he gets a whopping 300 spirit stones from Arena Share. Also, he got the separate private room as a privilege.
Inside Zi Chen\'s private room, Zi Chen, Larry, and Ria, who is known as Black Belle Miss, sat before a round table.
Larry, the heir of the Moonbrook family, is the personal manager of Zi Chen. Like Fatty Ben, who manages Kent\'s betting exclusively, Larry owns the business related to Zi Chen\'s betting.
Ria is the promised bride of the Moonbrook family, and if things work out well, she is going to be partnered with Larry. As her aunt Joya ordered her to get close to Larry, Ria began following him wherever he went.
"Zi Chen, think rationally. You are a grand master magus. As per rules, you can\'t challenge Kent or whoever he is. As per Arena rules, you can only challenge your equal or a person stronger than you." Larry spoke in a serious tone while slamming the table.
Ria, who sat silently without any care about these two people, suddenly turned her gaze after hearing Kent\'s name. Her body shredded in fear as Kent\'s name lingered in her brain. But soon, she calmed down, thinking that this Kent might be a different person.
"Larry, I don\'t know what you do... You must drag that bastard Kent to the arena. He dared to lay a finger on my sister. I won\'t be able to sleep until I beat his teeth out." Zi Chen replied with clenched fists. His angry tone reverberated inside the private room.
Larry fell into thought after sensing the seriousness of Zi Chen\'s desire. "Okey, how about we first drag him to Arena by using a bite?"
"What do you mean?" Zi Chen asked with a questioning look.
"We will use a dummy to challenge Kent in combat. Once he is inside the ring, we arrange a group of fighters whose strength grows exponentially. These people will deliberately lose in Kent\'s hands. Once Kent wins over a grand master magus, you can challenge him in combat officially. Then you can do whatever you want." Larry explained with an evil grin.
"Hahaha… brilliant. Larry, you were a genius." Zi Chen stood up and began clapping with an excited smile.
On the other side, Ria\'s heart is beating loudly every time Kent\'s name is mentioned. Soon, Zi Chen\'s gaze turned towards black belle Miss Ria. Till now, he ignored her, as it is very common for girls to flock around rich agents in the arena.
"Larry, I completely ignored this beauty. Who is she?" Zi Chen asked while staring at Ria\'s face with a longing look.
Ria quickly turned her gaze as she understood the lustful stare of Zi Chen with one glance.
"Ohh… How can I forget her? Zi Chen, meet my future wife, Ria Semen. Ria, meet Master Chen, he is the next head of the Chen family and also a formidable fighter in the arena." Larry introduced with an excited smile.
Zi Chen extended his hand while observing every inch of Ria\'s body. As Larry poked her, Ria extended her hand with a hesitating look. Zi Chen held onto her hand dearly.
Ria pulled back her hand, feeling the intentional grip of Zi Chen. Even after knowing that Ria is Larry\'s future wife, the lustful stare of Zi Chen didn\'t change a bit.
