Monsters Are Coming

But deep down, he believed that fighting should be the ultimate release of power.

This was also why he found the real-life fighting arenas stifling.

That feeling was like an unfinished banquet, having tasted the delicacies but never truly satisfied.

However, the situation in Monster World was completely different.

Here, he no longer needed to suppress his power, no longer needed to worry about the life and death of his opponent.

The fight was a pure contest of power and technique, an exhilarating release.

With each punch, he could hear the whistle of air being torn apart, feeling the tremors of muscles and the surge of gang qi in his body bringing a thrill.

At this moment, he was a beast breaking free from chains, free to run, bite, and fight to his heart's content.

The arena beneath his feet trembled slightly, followed by a burst of crimson energy from Phase Kill's feet, rippling outward like waves.

Buzz!

A low hum echoed through the air, crimson battle aura wrapping around Phase Kill, reflecting him like a War God. The crimson ripples beneath his feet spread outward.

Under the enhancement of the gang qi, Phase Kill's figure appeared even more towering, causing Black Knight's expression to become tense.

"Come on."

His voice was deep and icy, with a hint of provocation in his words.

Crimson battle aura gathered on his fist edge, like a burning flame, ready to engulf his opponent at any time.

"The battle begins," Barbarian Slave's voice sounded at this moment.

At this time, Black Knight's figure suddenly merged into the shadows, with the sound of wind howling.

However, Phase Kill's gaze quickly swept to the right, sensing Black Knight's approximate location through the flow of air.

His body suddenly charged forward, his fist whistling with broken wind, striking directly in the direction his gaze pointed.

Bam!

Black Knight had not fully emerged from shadow form when he was struck in the chest by Phase Kill's punch.

The massive impact sent Black Knight flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto the arena.

Black Knight knelt on one knee, supporting himself with his right hand as he slid backward several meters, barely supporting his body, but a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

But Phase Kill gave him no time to catch his breath, quickly attacking.

Black Knight rapidly summoned the shadow shield, attempting to fend off Phase Kill's next attack.

Break!

Approaching Phase Kill let out a low roar, his gang qi-encircled right fist punching out violently.

The Power Barbarian attribute also suddenly activated at this time, with golden energy surging in the crimson air flow.

The moment the fist collided with the shadow shield, the energy shield caved inward, then shattered like glass into countless black specks scattering away.

Black Knight's pupils suddenly contracted, but before he could react, Phase Kill's left fist followed closely.

A hook punch in a coat-clutching style, heavily striking Black Knight's right shoulder.

Poof!

Black Knight spat blood, his body sinking sharply, kneeling heavily on the arena.

Phase Kill gave no chance to Black Knight, his hands like iron pincers gripping Black Knight's shoulders, lifting him up abruptly.

Black Knight tried to struggle, but Phase Kill's strength made it impossible to move.

"End."

Phase Kill's voice rose, his arms violently pressing down, his knee suddenly rising, crashing into Black Knight's chest.

Crack!

The sound of bone breaking was clearly audible, Black Knight's body thrown into the air like a rag, crashing heavily onto the arena, unable to stand anymore.

"1 win!"

Barbarian Slave's voice sounded, and a teleportation array appeared under Phase Kill's feet.

At this time, the live stream was filled with "666".

As a record holder of 6 wins, nearly 1.49 million players were watching Phase Kill's live stream at this moment.

Seeing the fight end so easily for Phase Kill, they felt unsatisfied and all began posting bullet comments reviewing the battle.

Especially the brutal final knee crash, the "Cloud Judge" outside had given a score.

Having completed the fight, Phase Kill also at this time ascended to the second level of the Competition Ladder arena, through the window, he could see the square Competitive Arena outside, with a giant sword inserted at the front.

This place was also known as the Giant Sword Arena.

"Blessing of the Ancient God, one win rewards one Low-level Martial Soul Pearl, 69 hours and 39 minutes of rest time remaining."

Barbarian Slave's voice sounded again, after a flash from the array on the ground, a crimson spiritual pearl rose.

Taking the Low-level Martial Soul Pearl, Phase Kill unhesitatingly threw it into his space bag, then sacrificed it to Emperor Zhao in exchange for sacrificial power.

As for whether Barbarian Slave would find out he had space items on him, he didn't care.

In fact, Barbarian Slave never cared either, everyone just took what they needed.

"Barbarian Slave, I want to start the second match."

"As you wish." Having grown accustomed to the high-frequency competitive mode of players, Barbarian Slave's cold, emotionless voice echoed throughout the room.

As the words fell, a teleportation spirit pattern appeared beneath Phase Kill's feet, weaving rapidly.

His vision suddenly blurred.

When his vision cleared, he found himself in the Giant Sword Arena, with a figure already standing not far in front of him.

This time, the opponent had a humanoid form, standing about two meters tall, with a dragon-like head.

He wore a set of crimson light armor, with skin as red as flame, covered with fine scales, on his head were two backward-curving horns, his eyes were golden with vertical pupils, exuding the wild aura of a beast.

Its fingertips had sharp claws, with scorching air currents swirling between its fingers.

Phase Kill activated decomposition to scan.

He discovered the opponent's name was "Flame Claw", with only a Hunting Level of 32, which left him feeling disappointed. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ nοvelfire.net

This was destined to be an unexciting battle, the opponent was too weak.

"The battle begins!"

Barbarian Slave's voice sounded, and suddenly Flame Claw assumed a combat posture, like a beast ready to strike, with his body leaning slightly forward, arms naturally drooping, and fingertips that turned from hot air into burning flames.

Flame Claw launched the attack first, his body suddenly charging forward, his flaming claws slicing through the air, bringing forth waves of intense heat.

However, in Phase Kill's eyes, his movements seemed to be in slow motion.

Extreme Speed Soul activated.

Phase Kill's figure disappeared in an instant, leaving only footprints that quickly reverted on the ground, his form becoming a crimson lightning, instantly nearing Flame Claw.

Flame Claw's pupils constricted, before he could react, a fist had already slammed into his chest.

Bam!

Flame Claw flew away like a kite with a broken string, and before he could get up after landing, Phase Kill approached again, a sweeping leg like a bloodthirsty battle axe cut down.

"Crack!"

Flame Claw's ribs broke, and he was once again sent flying.

Before he hit the ground, Phase Kill had already leaped into the air, his knee crashing down like an iron hammer.

Boom!

Flame Claw's body was deeply embedded into the arena by this knee strike, his chest caved in, the flames on his body extinguished, remaining motionless.

Phase Kill glanced coldly at the dead Flame Claw, backflipping and landing steadily.

A brand formed on his head as the light circulated, revealing a dog tag (Thirst Blood Mark).

Immediately, the blood spilled on the ground was decomposed into a blood mist, which rose and transformed into nutrients to replenish physical strength within his body.

The battle from start to finish took only five seconds.

The live stream was immediately flooded with bullet comments, as players and viewers all exclaimed: fight, satisfying!

Ruthless, decisive, merciless... Phase Kill's crushing scene made the players and viewers in the live stream boil instantly, the bullet comments rolling in like a tidal wave.

"2 wins."

Barbarian Slave's voice sounded, and Phase Kill was immediately teleported to the third layer of the Competition Ladder: Flame Arena.

This layer of the arena was surrounded by raging flames.

Having obtained 2 Low-level Martial Soul Pearls, Phase Kill did not stay, decisively raising his head to look at the ceiling of the room, solemnly saying:

"Barbarian Slave, next one."

The players in the live stream were all cheering.

They longed to see Phase Kill break the record he had set himself, surpass the 6-win ceiling of the arena, and reach a higher stage.
