Chapter 225 - Heaven-Defying Cultivation, Special Treatment

nAfter hearing the audience cheer, Vincent returned to the ground. His fire spiritual body gradually returned to normal as he looked at the corpse of the Flame Demon with a normal expression.
nVincent did not enjoy the cheers of the audience. This was because he did not forget that he was just a slave-like contestant.
n
n
nHowever, he was very interested in the dead Flame Demon!
nWhen they fought earlier, Vincent could feel something from the Flame Demon. It was as if something was attracting him.
nTherefore, as soon as the battle ended, Vincent could not wait to check the corpse of the Flame Demon.
nVincent sliced open the chest of the Flame Demon based on his intuition and saw a red ball of light flickering in its heart.
n
n
n“Look! That’s the flame core of the Flame Demon! It’s the highest-grade material and can be used as a consumable item for cultivation. It’s quite expensive on the black market!”
n“Haha, I insisted on watching so many matches just to wait for this moment. The Fire God is finally dead. I want to buy that flame core immediately!”
n“Quick, look, what is the Fire Asura doing?”
nJust as everyone was crying out like madmen, someone suddenly pointed at Vincent and shouted loudly.
n
n
nEveryone’s gaze turned to Vincent. They saw that he was raising the flame core high above his head. He instantly crushed it with his hands, and a large amount of fiery red energy surged into his body.
nAll the spectators stared at Vincent in a daze. They did not dare to make a sound.
nIn the Arena of Life and Death, all the contestants belonged to the Lord of Ultimate Evil. This included their belongings. Some Black Hole races usually had some high-grade materials on their bodies. Therefore, after the contestants died, there would usually be spectators who would buy the materials on the corpses.
nHowever, Vincent had used his identity as a contestant to absorb the materials that belonged to the Lord of Ultimate Evil.
nThis was too crazy!
nVincent’s actions showed that he had forgotten his identity as a slave in the arena. He had greedily reached his hand into his master’s pocket!
n
n
nOn the top floor, the Lord of Ultimate Evil who was watching the competition frowned and said, “This guy is a little unconscious! He actually dared to absorb the flame core in public. Although that thing is not very valuable, it is not something that he can touch!”
nIrene, who was standing next to the Lord of Ultimate Evil, buried her worried expression deep in her eyes. She lowered her head and said without any emotion, “He did not disrespect you. He is just enjoying the spoils of victory!”
n“Oh?”
nThe Lord of Ultimate Evil responded with surprise, and the anger in his heart immediately subsided.
nThe Lord was in charge of the Ultimate Evil capital. He did not care about a flame core at all. He only cared about the respect of the contestants. After hearing Irene’s explanation, he felt much more relieved!
nThe Lord of Ultimate Evil turned to look at Irene and asked softly, “You seem to know him very well?”
nA hint of panic flashed in Irene’s eyes. She hurriedly said, “No, I’ve only met him a few times. How could I know him?”
nThe Lord of Ultimate Evil suddenly laughed and said to Irene, “You’re from the same race, and he’s also a rare powerhouse of the Spirit Race. It’s very normal for you to be familiar with each other. If you really want to help him, I can give him a chance!”
n
n
nIrene hurriedly raised her head and asked anxiously, “Really?”
nThe Lord of Ultimate Evil looked at Irene with a profound gaze and said, “As expected, you were indeed raised by me! You’re just like my daughter. I understand your thoughts very well! I can promise you to help him. Since he is absorbing the flame core, I can continue to arrange for him to have opponents with fire-type abilities and give him a chance to continue to be strong. But you must promise me one thing!”
nAfter hearing this, Irene did not hesitate and immediately asked, “What is it?”
nThe Lord of Ultimate Evil smiled but his smile looked somewhat evil. He turned his head to look at Vincent in the arena and said, “You have to think of a way to make him trust you and make him work hard to win a hundred battles. After obtaining his freedom, he will take the initiative to become my slave! He will become the manager of the Ultimate Evil Capital!”
nAfter hearing that, Irene was shocked and said in a panic, “What? Make him the manager of the capital of Ultimate Evil? This, this, I can’t do it. I mean, we are not that familiar with each other yet. He will not listen to me!”
nThe Ultimate Evil smiled indifferently and said, “It doesn’t matter! You still have a long time to convince him. Moreover, he has just carried out the second duel. He might not be able to win a hundred battles and stay alive! I just want to place a bet in advance before everything happens!”
nIrene’s gaze darkened. She lowered her head and said, “Understood, I will do my best to complete it!”
nIrene then left.
nThe Lord of Ultimate Evil stared quietly at Vincent below, his eyes flashing with mockery and playfulness!
nAfter Vincent used his instincts to absorb the flame core in the arena, he suddenly felt his body evolving. It was a very clear feeling!
nThe feeling was like a person growing from a child to an adult, and it was completed within a short period of time. This rapid and powerful growth was like a metamorphosis, a qualitative change of enhancement!
nThe powerful and hot flame energy began to circulate in Vincent’s body. It strengthened his body while also converting it into psionic power at a rapid speed!
n“This, this is the Flaming Sun Divine Body advancing once again?”
n
n
nVincent exclaimed in surprise and delight. This was because he noticed that his Flaming Sun Divine Body had already advanced to the second layer!
nAfter activating the second layer of the Flaming Sun Divine Body, Vincent possessed an even more miraculous special ability. From then on, he could convert a portion of psionic power from the fire energy to strengthen himself. This included the fire energy produced by the World Cleansing Fire!
nTo Vincent, this was a huge increase in his cultivation speed!
nIn the future, whenever Vincent used a skill, he would be able to recover a portion of psionic power at the same time. This would greatly reduce his consumption of psionic power. Moreover, the more powerful the ability, the better effect it had on recovering psionic power.
nVincent left the arena with excitement and joy under everyone’s gazes. Under the supervision of the administrator, he walked towards his own room.
n“Wait!”
nJust as Vincent was about to walk to the residential area of the low-level contestants, the administrator suddenly called out to him. He pointed in another direction and said, “You are now a level-17 creature. You cannot continue to live in the residential area of the low-level contestants. We have already arranged a new room for you!”
nVincent nodded and turned around to follow the administrator to the new room.
nAs the automatic door slowly lifted, Vincent saw his brand new room. It was slightly more spacious, and he also had an independent bathroom. It looked even cleaner than his previous room.
nThe advanced contestant’s living room also had a more humane design. On each side of the room, there was a piece of transparent floor-to-ceiling glass, which allowed the contestants living in the room to communicate with each other. The room was no longer an enclosed space.
n“Hey! Why is this spirit staying in the advanced contestant’s living area? Where’s the Fire God?”
n“With this kid here, I have confidence in the upcoming duel! I really hope that my next opponent is him, and when that time comes, I will tear the low-level life form to shreds!”
n“Hehe, just wait for your death, kid!”
nThe contestants who lived around all laid on the glass, ferociously. They were threatening Vincent loudly, venting the darkness in their hearts!
nThe manager turned around and shouted at the creatures around him, “Shut up! Fire Asura is now a level 17 creature. He has just disemboweled the Fire God and absorbed the flame core! You will definitely become his opponent in the future. Don’t worry!”
n“What, what! He killed the Fire God and absorbed the flame core?”
n“A level 17 creature? How did he become a level 17 creature? Seven days ago, he was still a low-level contestant!”
n“Too, too scary!”
nThe contestants around him were in disbelief and shock. Some of them even retreated to their beds and hid under their blankets to avoid Vincent’s indifferent gaze.
nThere was no longer anyone who was willing to become Vincent’s next opponent. A terrifying level 17 creature had the ability to kill any one of them!
n“Hmph! I look forward to meeting you in the arena!”
nVincent looked at everyone’s rooms indifferently. He then turned around and walked into his room.
nJust as the manager was about to close the door, the sound of high heels suddenly rang out in the corridor. The two managers immediately stopped their actions, turned around, and bowed towards the end of the corridor. They greeted respectfully, “Miss Irene!”
n“You guys stay outside, I have something to say to him!” said Irene to the manager.
nThe manager nodded and retreated outside the room. After Irene walked into the room, they closed the door behind her.
nIn the room, Vincent sat on the bed and looked at Irene. He patted the seat beside him and said with a smile, “Sorry, the room is relatively simple, there is nothing to entertain you here. If you don’t mind, you can sit here!”
nIrene looked at Vincent quietly and then went forward to sit beside him. She said, “The Lord of Ultimate Evil wants to help you, but he needs you to make a decision!”
n“Oh? What do you need me to do?” asked Vincent curiously.
nIrene kept her eyes in front. Her tone was calm as she said, “He will not pursue the matter of you absorbing the flame core today. He can also arrange more flame-type opponents for you to speed up and increase your strength. However, the corresponding condition is for you to become the manager of Ultimate Evil capital after you obtain freedom!”
n“Manager? Then wouldn’t I become an official? That condition is not bad!”
nVincent frowned slightly, but his tone was still relaxed as he spoke.
nIrene finally turned to look at Vincent and said with a nervous expression, “This is not a joke! To become the manager of Ultimate Evil capital, you must swear a sincere oath of loyalty to the Lord of Ultimate Evil and offer your soul to him!”
nVincent’s expression suddenly changed, and he sighed coldly, “So this is the deal he wants, for me to be a pure slave!”
n
