The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor



"That's right, there is no limit to the black iron bet. There's no guarantee you can even see one in a whole month. Many people would get instigated by the black iron bet and throw away their whole life savings, trying to earn a big sum.

"One to seven odds is far too alluring. If Arne wasn't making such a big fuss earlier, quite a few people might have bitten the bait and put a lot of spirit crystals on Lucius. Then, they'd really be suffering great losses!"

"That's right, I almost put all my life savings on Lucius. After I heard what all of you said, I was lucky enough to realize my mistakes. I placed my bet on the beast.

Even if the odds are only one to two, it would still double my spirit crystals! It's still a good thing...'

Just as everyone was busy discussing, the Thousand Feathered Beast suddenly fell from the air. With a bang, the beast's massive body heavily slammed onto the stage, causing dust to fly everywhere!

As it flew in the air, the beast still had the strength to constantly cry out, but after it fell to the ground, it could only manage small trills. It seemed like it was dealing with a great deal of pain!

The beast constantly rolled on the ground. Its feathers and massive body shook. Fane let out a cold laugh as he raised an eyebrow. He knew that most of the beast's soul had already been eaten. No matter how much it tried to fly, it would be pointless!

Fane raised the sword in his hand as countless strands of black energy condensed on the tip of his sword. He summoned his strength and slashed at the beast. The crowd heard a slash, and the blade pierced through the beast's throat.

Blood suddenly shot out, staining the whole arena with the blood of the beast. The smell of blood filled Fane's nostrils, but he remained expressionless. After all, everything had been within his calculations.

Destroying the Void was a soul attribute technique. After mastering it, Fane was already well versed in controlling the technique. He no longer wasted any energy on destroying physical flesh, but only focused on rotting the soul!

Even though the Thousand Feathered Beast was still trying to fly upward, its soul had been constantly ripped apart and dissolved! Slowly, the beast could no longer hold on after most of its soul had rotted away thus falling from the skies!

That scene stunned everyone there. Arne's smile froze on his face as he widened his eyes, staring at the corpse of the beast in disbelief!

How was that possible? Why did the Thousand Feathered Beast fall from the skies? Why did it constantly roll on the floor and cry out? Why did the beast not avoid Fane's final strike?

With how fast the beast was, as long

as the beast wanted to, the blade would have only struck the ground. It would not have been able to harm the beast at all. However, the beast looked like it was in suchCòntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

excruciating pain that it conve

pay attention to its surroundings at all.

Everything that had happened was out of their expectations. It had happened too suddenly as well, causing the spectators and the warriors to all be speechless.

Everyone was first stunned before they started to look at each other in confusion.

What happened? How did things progress to that stage? Before Fane dealt the final blow, there had been no wounds on the beast at all. Other than those few cries, it had been flying upward.

There did not seem to be anything odd about it, but even despite all of that, the beast seemed to have had all its strength drained from it as it fell heavily from the air.

"What exactly happened? The beast

was clearly fine, so why did it

wel

suddenly fall from the sky? Why didn't it dodge the attack? Who can tell me what happened? Isn't everything too sudden? I feel like Lucius was cheating!"

"I don't understand either. Lucius clearly looked like he lost, but how did things suddenly change? Could Lucius'_attack have some other effects? We might not have seen the beast get injured, but it actually was!"

"Could it be a soul attribute attack? If it really was, then the outer injuries might not have been obvious. After all, those techniques attack the soul!"

The discussions could not stop. After all, everyone was far too shocked at what happened.
