Chapter 1407
"DAMN IT!"Madam Arabella slammed her fist on the armchair angrily, black lines were already covering her entire forehead.novelbin
She invested too much in ScaldingWinter to push him to win the tournament and get excellent results in the heavenly planetournament.
Alas, her hopes were dashed the moment she decided to torment Felix.
"He is too strong... am starting to think that only the Ravager, Avalanche, and Goliath the Juggernaut are capable of taking himdown in this tournament." Boss Gideon commentated.
“We will see about that." Mr. Atticus said calmly, his eyes placed on Felix who was being avoided akin to a plague in thearena.Not a single fighter dared to target him after his performance, realizing that it was much easier to secure one of the otherthree slots than attempt to eliminate him.
So, for the next ten minutes, Felix was seen sitting near the edge of the arena with his arm resting on his knee, scanning theongoing chaos in a nonchalant manner.
Just like the area around him was a banned zone, not a single fight was picked near him, which created a bizarre scene for theviewers.
“What an interesting newbie..."
Standing tall amidst the first group of fighters, the figure of Ravager was as imposing as it was intriguing. He possesses analluring charisma of a stoic warrior, his icy gaze filled with inscrutable depth, often leaving his opponents unnerved.
His skin has an ethereal soft golden glow, showcasing his status as a newly risen golden spirit. Intricate tattoos adorn his body,swirling around his muscular arms and broad shoulders. His hair, a wild untamed mane while his attire of fluid silks mirrors hisaffinity to water.
His demeanor was not that of one who brags, but of a cold and serious predator who lets his skills speak for him.
This was Ravager, the previous two times champion of Astralis's Spectral Tournament in a row, stealing the crown from theknown most powerful fighters, Goliath and Avalanche.
His strength and battle experience were so overwhelming, almost 99% of the fighters join those tournaments for the sake ofsecuring the second or third rank.
He was that overbearing.
Sensing two pressuring pair of eyes on him, Felix turned his head to the side in a relaxed manner and returned the stare to theRavager in the midst of the chaos reigning in the Colosseum.
Felix and Ravager, standing across from one another, their eyes locked in an intense standoff... The air between them seemed tovibrate, each sizing up the other with silent scrutiny.
Around them, the Colosseum was in a state of frenzy. The ground shook with impact, smoke, and dust filling the air, clouding thevibrant bursts of elemental abilities.
Fighters charged, bellowed, and fell.Energy blasts rocketed skyward, shattering the heavens in a spectacular display of power!Yet amidst all the mayhem, their unemotional expressions were unchanged, each man seemed carved from stone.
No words were needed, for their eyes spoke volumes more than words ever could. It was clear to all - a storm was about tobreak between these two.
‘To think | will be forced to take such weaklings seriously again...Isn't it ironic Asna?' Felix shook his head, breaking off theintense staredown like it was nothing.
While his mind was as creepily silent as everyone else, Felix imagined Asna mocking the Ravager with her assholish personality.He sniggered to himself for a moment before his stoic expression retook control over him again.
‘Is he laughing at me?"
While it was brief, the Ravager caught him in the act and he didn't seem pleased in the slightest.
Unfortunately for him, Felix didn't bother to glance in his direction ever again.
Sometime later...
"The MimicJoker has fallen at last!! With that, we have our four finalists, and first four fighters to make it to the tournament!"
Mr. Sogrus extended his hand widely and congratulated loudly, "Make some noise for The Traveller, The Banshee, Morris, andMiss Jasmine!"
Clap Clap Clap!!
Out of nowhere, a single pair of hands started clapping, the sound echoing through the vast expanse. It was soon followed byanother, then another until the entire coliseum resonated with the applause of thousands of spectators.
In the center of the arena stood the four finalists - Felix, The Banshee, Morris, and Miss Jasmine...Besides Felix, the threefinalists looked like they had gone through hell seven times and came back worse each time.
To survive a battle royal with hundreds of fighters was no easy task and if Felix hadn't displayed his overwhelming strength, hewould have become like them.
After the applause died down, they were excused from the arena and the dice were rolled yet again to decide the next group.In the meantime, the arena went into a rapid reparation, becoming brand new in less than a few seconds.
"The next group is number one! All fighters please grace the stage." Mr. Sogrus requested.
‘Avalanche's group."
Felix's cold eyes followed the sole golden shimmering spirit amidst hundred fighters -Avalanche. He was a lean humanoid bearwith snow-white fur that gleamed like a field of untouched snow under the sunlight.
He was considered one of the favorites to triumph the competition if he prepared enough to take down Ravager and get hisrevenge from the last tournament.
The fight that Felix watched on the tv was a replay of a very old competition where Goliath and Avalanche were still dominatingthe competition.
But now? It was too hard to predict the outcome with Felix and Ravager involved.“What an expected but disappointing turn of events."
Mr. Sogrus sighed at the sight of Avalanche sitting at the edge of the arena while the rest of the fighters stayed as far as possiblefrom him.
While no one was dumb enough to take the risk and fight off Felix - Avalanche, Goliath, and Ravager were on a whole differentplane.
Unless those three sought to warm up in those group battles, it was impossible to see them breaking a sweat unless someonejoined the competition without a single clue about their reputation.
Thus, the next three battle royals were quite exciting but not too explosive with those three acting as mere spectators.
In less than an hour, the final twelve finalists were decided and the competition came to a close for one day to give the fightersproper rest before the real deal begins.
Back in the national park...Felix could be sitting under the same tree while Karra was cooking a hot pot in the open under thestars.
As for Sekiro? He was sent to secure some spiritual treasures in the black market.
As the name implied, no one cared about the rules, laws, blacklist orders, or whatnot due to all the trades being carried outsideof the laws' all-seeing eyes.
However, it wasn't all good and magical as the prices of the items there were at least triple the market price.
Still, Felix had been sending Sekiro consistently on a daily basis to get as many spiritual treasures as possible at the mostreasonable prices.
In those past weeks, Felix had spent close to thirty thousand Lumus on them alone, but they were worth it as they made hisbattles much easier.
If it wasn't for those upgrades, it would have been much more annoying to deal with ScaldingWinter.
‘The price might reach triple or even higher for each treasure, but | have to increase my spiritual prowess as much as possiblebefore | meet those three monsters." Felix thought.
Even though those three fighters hadn't showcased anything in today's competition, Felix knew deeply what they were capableof.
Even ScaldingWinter wasn't their match and Madam Arabella was merely dreaming of him coming close to their level.

Sometime later...
Sekiro returned with an irritated expression like he was just fed cow's dung forcefully.
"That bad?" Felix asked.
"You have no idea.”
Sekiro closed his eyes and poured the bought spiritual treasures and the Lumus change in front of Felix."That's it?"
Even Felix's unemotional expression turned for the worst after seeing that Sekiro had bought with him an abysmal amount ofspiritual treasures with the kind of capital he had given him.

"| see..." Felix frowned, "Don't worry, this is on me, | should have thought about it beforehand."
"Still, good thing we have bought a decent amount in the past weeks before they caught up." Sekiro shivered, "I would havehonestly punched some of them if | was forced to waste forty thousand Lumus on such exorbitant prices."
