Chapter 187: Heavenly Justice
"Bhasma Pankh Phoenix" [Phoenix Accession Blast]: As Kent released the feathery arrow into the sky, a loud cry of phoenix resounded in the Arena.
A fiery phoenix with a large wing span that covers half of the fighting ring formed in the skies, directly above Kent\'s head. The entire Phoenix form is glowing with original flames.
"What a majestic spell... It seems like he used his entire aura to create this much bigger phoenix." The arbiter muttered while staring at the sky from the edge of the arena.
A silent huss fell over the crowd as everyone stared at the majestic beast with bewildered looks. Like Arbiter, everyone thought Kent used his entire aura to create the phoenix.
"Kewww…"
The phenix raised its head and cried out like a lively bird. In the next instance, it opened its mouth wide and began raining fire over the tens of spirit beasts that were rushing towards Kent. A worry formed on Tang\'s face as he stared at the fiery bird. To save his dying aura beasts, he hurriedly released several spells to counter the phenix form.
Even though his spells damaged the fiery phenix, it didn\'t vanish entirely. After killing all the aura beasts released by Tang, Kent directed the remaining form of the phenix beast towards Tang. As he has greater dao success, Kent spent a lot less aura to control the fiery phenix.
Tang\'s hands began shaking as he hurriedly released whatever spell came to his mind. Even though the fire phenix lost large chunks of its size and power, it didn\'t stop rushing towards Tang.
"Kewww…."
Hearing the phenix cry, Tang lost the will to fight. He hurriedly kneeled on his pet, which is a gesture of conceding.
Seeing his gesture, Kent hurriedly stopped circulating his aura, and the phenix vanished into the air. Loud booing followed as everyone blamed Tang for losing their money. No one expected a two-level-higher opponent to lose in Kent\'s hands so easily.
With a simple smile, Kent placed his bow in the Pegasus bracelet. Soon, the arbiter announced the result, and with that, Fatty pocketed another small fortune.
But just as Kent took a step forward, the entire Arena turned red again, and loud music followed with an announcement in the aura glass.
"Heavenly Justice— Fighter Angus of the Autumn Wind sect, Peak of Master Magus realm (5th), wants to counter the fighter named Kent of the Eternal Sun sect, 1st stage of Master Magus realm. The opponent has five minutes to consent."
The clock began ticking below the announcement. After a long time, someone dared to issue a Heavenly Justice challenge by spending 100 spirit stones.
"What the hell?!"
"Another revenge fight?!"
"Are they idiots? It costs 100 spirit stones to issue a consecutive challenge."
Loud murmurs followed as everyone stared at Kent. Instead of accepting or rejecting, Kent called Fatty, as he didn\'t know the rules and benefits involved in the Heavenly Justice match.
Fatty hurriedly reached and gave the glass orb containing information about fighter Angus. Even Fatty was in a surprised state, as he never expected Kent to fight consecutive battles on his first day.
"What happens to my Arena points if I win or lose this fight?" Kent asked while gazing at the glass orb.
"Master Heavenly Justice is really special, if you win, you will get all your opponent\'s Arena points and his rank if it is higher than yours. Also, if he is a newbie fighter, the Arena will award Arena points based on the cultivation stage.
But if you lose, you won\'t lose your rank, but all of your Arena points go to him. This is why it is called Heavenly Justice." Fatty explained while staring at the ticking clock on the Aurora glass.
"This Angus seems to be rank 103, not bad for my first day. By the way, these guys seem to be targeting me. Did we offend any of them in the Arena?" Kent asked as his third opponent, also from the Autumn Wind sect.
"I don\'t think so, master. Maybe these fellows are close friends. Anyway, you can reject this challenge, master. We won\'t lose anything by rejecting the challenge." Fatty suggested it in a concerned tone.
"I still have time left for another fight. Let me finish this quickly. It seems like someone is targeting us intentionally." Kent paused for a second as a face surfaced in his thoughts. "Ben, who is the privilege fighter for Larry?" Kent asked, suddenly turning towards Fatty.
Fatty scratched his head as he thought of Larry\'s personal fighters. "I can\'t remember, master. As he is a rank 5 gambler, he has multiple privilege fighters." Fatty replied casually.
"Check Larry\'s details on Gambler\'s forum. I want to know all the fighters under Larry\'s symbol." Kent instructed as he walked towards the arbiter.
After taking a few steps, Kent stopped and turned around. "The next guy is a water element practitioner. It is not a big problem for me, even though he is four levels higher than me. You know what to do." Kent said while staring at Fatty.
A wide grin appeared on Fatty\'s face as he nodded his head like a chicken. Smiling happily, Kent began moving towards Arbiter.
As time is very short, Fatty already began running towards his stall to make an announcement to stir up the crowd. But before he even reached his stall, people lined up at the counter while holding gold coins and spirit stones.
Meanwhile, Larry communicated with Zi Chen to explain the situation.
"Zi Chen, think about it. The Divine Justice match costs 1000 spirit stones to initiate. Even though you can challenge Kent with a one-day time interval, the 1000 spirit stones won\'t return to me. Why not wait for a few more days? By that time, Kent will reach the Grand Master Magus stage, and you can freely fight him without losing 1000 spirit stones." Larry asked in a pleading tone.
Zi Chen smirked loudly after hearing Larry\'s request. "You earned several thousand spirit stones because of me. Don\'t cry over just 1000 spirit stones. I already promised to reduce my share of the return on betting revenue. So, stop nagging like a lady and prepare to initiate the Divine Justice challenge after this fight."
Zi Chen ordered in a serious tone while getting ready to make his entrance into the Arena in flashy clothes.
