“Isn’t it you who’s courting death?!” the young man felt extremely irritated. How could a newcomer dare to threaten his life?Even though he had repeatedly failed to reach the top hundred rankings, he had still managed to survive in the Axe Arena. That alone was proof that he was used to living under constant, life-threatening pressure!“Lao He has been obsessed with getting rid of newcomers for the past three years… Even if this newly arrived youth can’t accept being called trash… he shouldn’t have injured Lao He…”“Quiet, all of you… There’s a show to watch. The courtyard outside the Dragon Axe Arena is about to get more interesting…”“Come on, Lao He, I support your decision! Beat this newcomer so he knows just how terrifying the Dragon Axe Arena is!”Everyone began gathering around the area near Bintang’s small house.“You’ve all heard how dangerous I am, haven’t you?” Lao He smiled smugly as he heard the Dragon Arena participants praising his reputation.“Now, if you still know y

After returning,Bintang began using numerous herbal plants to create various concoctions.First, he made a repellent mixture for wild beasts with sharp senses of smell. Second, he created a God Healing Pill, though it only took the form of a liquid. And lastly, he successfully produced a thick, dark green potion.“W-what are you trying to do to me?!” The masked man swallowed nervously as he watched Bintang approach while carrying a bowl of the potion.Bintang sneered coldly. “Didn’t I already say it? I want to turn you all into decorative statues.”Forcing the potion into him, Bintang quickly cut several of the rattans binding the masked man’s body. Then, with full awareness, he moved the man’s arms and positioned them into a ridiculous pose.“Y-you…” The masked man felt his entire body stiffen.“Hehehe… This way, I won’t have to bother staying on guard against you. Now I’ll just wait for the others to arrive!”Bintang rummaged through the masked man’s pockets. He found many useful i

“H-how did you know I was hiding here?” The old man stepped out from behind the tree trunk.The wrinkles on his face were filled with deep curiosity.“The herbal scent on your body is very strong, Senior… How could I not notice it?”The old man scratched the back of his head even though it didn’t itch. Yet admiration shone clearly in his eyes.“Heh, come on, let’s eat this deer meat with me…”The two of them began roasting and enjoying the deer that Bintang had hunted. After two hours of filling their empty stomachs, the old man patted Bintang on the back.“I see that you are a good young man, possessing all kinds of rather terrifying skills… If my granddaughter were still alive, perhaps you would be the only young man worthy of her…” The old man lowered his head slightly.Wanting to investigate the old man’s background, Bintang immediately asked, “What was her name? Why did you say, ‘if your granddaughter were still alive’?”The old man took a deep breath. Great trauma and fear surfa

“Why are you the only one here? Where are your companions? Eating you alone won’t be enough to fill the three of our stomachs!”Bintang’s face remained expressionless as he stared at the giant ape, the werewolf, and the tiger-man. Their appearances were indeed terrifying.“Just me is more than enough… By the way, how did you find me so quickly?”The three Beast Kings snorted coldly.“Someone released us with the purpose of killing every human who follows the second round of the competition… Of course, we won’t let our stomachs starve after all these years… We’ve already explained everything to accompany the story of your death. Young man, I am very hungry…”Wuuuuuush!The ape leapt forward, its movement like a bodiless shadow. However, Bintang already knew its target.With full awareness, he jumped to the side to evade the Demon Beast King’s punch.Baaaaang!The ape’s fist missed, but it smashed into a massive rock in front of the cave entrance, shattering it into countless fragments.

“This child is truly terrifying… It seems he really can be relied upon?” Qing Yuan’s body trembled as he saw the three Guardian Beast Kings of the nation die at the same time.“Master, then what should we do?” the serpent-bodied, human-headed figure asked calmly.“Guard this place… I will treat the injuries inside my adopted son’s body…”The serpent with a human head nodded and watched as his master left the hidden cave.“The human my master adopted is truly frightening… Even with my poisonous abilities and physical endurance, fighting three Beast Kings at once would be seeking death… But my master’s adopted son actually killed them all?!”*In the medicinal herb field.“All his bones are shattered, several internal organs are completely paralyzed, yet he’s still alive? This…” Qing Yuan was utterly shocked after examining all of Bintang’s injuries. Without delay, he hurried out of the small house to gather the herbal ingredients he needed.A few minutes later, inside the room.Suddenl

An astonishing shock began to spread like a tsunami. How was it possible that a newcomer had killed the Beast King? Even someone like Ling Yu and Ming Yu—if those two rulers joined forces, they still would not be able to kill the Beast King!“Very good that you admit it… Bintang, do you know what kind of trouble you have caused?”Bintang’s face looked slightly irritated. “The Beast King wanted to kill me. Why shouldn’t I kill him?!” he repeated his previous statement.“Hahaha! The Beast King wanted to kill you, so you should have accepted it… Besides, are you even valuable to us?!”“Killing the Beast King means he has become a traitor, a rebel… What a pity, Bintang must be executed!”“Even if the three of us had the ability to kill him, we wouldn’t dare do it… Everyone! Execute him!” Ming Yu gave the order.The punishment did exist, but most importantly, letting Bintang live would threaten his seat of power. After all, he himself might not be able to kill him.Wuuuuung!Time seemed to

“Hmph! I can’t believe your body is still as strong as before…”Wuuuuuush!Ming Yu and Xiao Chen began to move like shadows. Their two attacks were so fast they almost touched Bintang’s body.But Bintang tilted his body, blocking one of Ming Yu’s strikes. At the same time, his leg moved wildly, kicking Xiao Chen’s groin with brutal force.Baaaaang!“Aaaaargh!” Xiao Chen’s eyes widened in shock. The overwhelming pain caused the sword in his hand to slip and fall.Now only Ming Yu remained, cursing Bintang’s actions.“You bastard! Do you really have no heart?! You actually destroyed a man’s future and dignity!”“What I did is far better than DEATH!”Slaaaaash!A sword movement so fast that even Ming Yu couldn’t follow it. His vision went blank. All he knew was that his right arm had gone numb.In the silence—“Th-that strike…” The Second General of the Border remembered the same technique used by the Dragon General.“AAAHHH!”“Bi-Bintang can face both of them so easily? So he really cou

Qing Nan was still stunned. Bintang’s words just now seemed to pierce straight into his heart.“Protect your identity… of course, that is the easiest thing for me. But Bintang…” Qing Nan looked at him deeply.“Do you know the consequences? If one day they find out who you really are, even I’m not sure I can withstand the anger of the entire ruling council of this nation.”Bintang only smiled faintly. His gaze was calm, yet behind it lay an unshakable conviction.“I don’t care… As long as Kiana is safe, and I can cut out the rotten roots within this country, I will face any consequence.”Qing Nan fell silent. Then he poured a glass of wine and pushed it toward Bintang.“In that case, starting tonight… you are not only one of the three rulers of the organization. You are Qing Nan’s shadow. I will also bear all the risks for you.”Bintang lifted the glass on the table and drained it in one gulp. The sound of the glass striking the wooden table echoed faintly, becoming a witness to the bo

The flames roared violently at the old harbor. Thick black smoke billowed into the night sky, mixing with the heavy rain that failed to put out the blaze.Qing Nan clenched his fists, his jaw tightening.“Damn it! They’re not only bold enough to challenge us in Amerta, but they also know how to erase their tracks perfectly.”“But maybe there’s still something left…”Bintang walked slowly toward the cracked dock. The bodies of the men in white suits’ subordinates lay scattered, yet not a single one was alive. All of them had died from clean wounds, as if each had been killed with only a single slash.“They… silenced their own men.” Bintang’s voice was cold.“That means the information they carried was too valuable to be leaked.”Lue Yinan stared at the burning cargo ship, her face tense.“The Information Tower… this must be their doing as well…”“If the Ying family’s documents have been successfully smuggled out, then Kiana will never be safe again. We don’t even know who the real enem

The old man in the gray robe, Qing Yuan, finally spoke.“The traitor will not stop with just one victim. This is a message. They want us to suspect one another… until this organization collapses from within.”“A message?” Lue Yinan turned quickly. “Then the death of the Ying family’s head and this… are all part of a larger scheme?”Qing Yuan nodded slowly. “Yes. And Bintang, you are the key to this game.” He was still hiding the father–son relationship between them.Everyone’s gaze immediately shifted toward Bintang. Some were filled with suspicion, while others held unspoken respect.Bintang did not retreat. He straightened his posture, his sword standing upright, piercing through the emergency light.“If I really am the key to this game, then I will be the last player left standing.”The atmosphere grew even more unstable. Friend and enemy were truly indistinguishable. In the end, Qing Nan dismissed the small meeting.*Several hours after the meeting ended.The secret headquarters
