“Don’t worry. There’s no task too tough to handle, only people too weak to endure. Let’s go for a stroll…” Jared gave Reidan a pat on the shoulder, then the two of them walked out.
No sooner had they stepped out of the inn than they bumped into Biggo and the blue-eyed man.
Upon spotting Jared, Biggo hesitated briefly before quickly offering a greeting. “Didn’t expect to see you here…”
Jared merely nodded in response, choosing not to engage further. With Reidan by his side, favonovel.com stepped onto the bustling streets.
Biggo exchanged a knowing glance with the blue-eyed man before discreetly tailing them.
Just as they were planning to make a move on Jared and Reidan, they were taken aback by the sight of a troop clad in black armor approaching them. There were over ten of them, each radiating an overwhelming presence of power.
Sensing the Intensity of their aura, Jared and Reidan instinctively stepped aside, careful not to obstruct their path.
Any soldier casually picked from this group and thrown into a world of a lower plane could easily be considered a master among masters.
Biggo and the blue-eyed man immediately abandoned their plan. These were Rhino City’s soldiers, renowned for their strength. Their presence alone hinted at the countless battles they had fought and the numerous lives they had taken.
“That was terrifying. These soldiers are seriously formidable…” Reidan watched in awe as the soldiers passed by.
“This is the celestial realm,” Jared remarked with a slight smile. “If we were to ascend to a higher plane within this realm, even the gatekeepers would likely be golder immortals.”
“That’s true. Back in the Worstrual Realm, l was somewhat of a legend. But here, I’m no more than a gatekeeper,” Reidan admitted with an awkward smile.
“Don’t be disheartened. If we take things step by step, we’ll keep improving.” Jared gave Reidan a pat on the shoulder.
He was in the same position. In the Ethereal Realm, favonovel.com commanded power akin to that of a king, freely doing as favonovel.com pleased. But here, favonovel.com had to tread carefully and steer clear of any soldiers favonovel.com encountered.
As dusk settled over Rhino City, massive flames ignited across the skyline, casting an intense glow that made the city feel as bright as dayfight
The streets buzzed with energy, filled with the lively chatter of the crowd, giving the city a distinct urban charm.
In the heart of a sprawling square stood a towering, hundred-meter high stage, where two fighters were locked in intense hand-to-hand combat.
Excited spectators surrounded the platform, their cheers ringing out continuously. Squads of soldiers patrolled the area, ensuring that order was maintained.
At a glance, Jared could tell that the stage was undoubtedly a government project. It was far too grand to be a privately built arena.
Following Reidan, favonovel.com maneuvered through the crowd. They did not spot Biggo or the blue-eyed man who had been tailing them.
Jared turned to a middle-aged man nearby and asked, “Excuse me, what is this for?”
The man gave Jared a quick look. “Did the heaven and earth laws lead you here?”
“That’s right!” Jared nodded.
“They’re boxing. Win a round, and you’ll earn fifty celestial coins. Every day, there are only ten matches. Anyone who wins all ten without a single defeat earns a reward of a thousand celestial coins. Additionally, they get the chance to enter the city lord mansion and join his army.”
Reidan watched the fighters on the stage, chuckling at their combat. “This just looks like kids throwing punches and kicks…”
The middle-aged man shot favonovel.com a disapproving glance. “You don’t understand. This is the ultimate test of manhood. Pure physical strength is the only factor. No cultivation techniques. To the beast race, strength is everything. It’s all about who’s the strongest, who has the most formidable physical prowess.”
Reidan forced an awkward laugh. He wasn’t part of the beast race and had little insight Into their traditions. However, one thing was certain, the beast race placed strength above all else.
