The grandstands of the Devil Evolution Arena were already packed with all sorts of devils and monsters, many of whom Ye Feng couldn't even name...
With a multitude of devils and monsters, and their constant loud clamor and sharp cries, the entire venue was like a boiling cauldron...
“Big brother, it’s so noisy here, my ears are hurting a little!”
Xiao Xiao leaned close to Ye Feng’s ear and spoke loudly.
“This Devil Evolution Arena... a place for devils to cultivate?”
Ye Feng took two steps towards Qiao Ying and inquired. His voice was also quite loud, as otherwise, it would be drowned out by the deafening noise around them.
“This...”
Qiao Ying frowned. “I don’t know how devils cultivate... but that giant blood-red statue erected in the center above the Devil Evolution Arena... that is the symbol of Beelzebub, the King of Gluttony, one of the Seven Great Devils...”
“The symbol of the King of Gluttony, Beelzebub... is a big bug? A worm?”
Ye Feng observed the blood-red statue below the Devil Evolution Arena and said, somewhat bewildered.
“Yes... it is... although I haven’t seen Beelzebub myself...”
Qiao Ying’s expression was also quite surprised.
“Wow~”
At this moment, the devils and monsters in the grandstands of the Devil Evolution Arena suddenly erupted in cheers and then fell silent.
Immediately after, inside the Devil Evolution Arena, a handsome young man wearing a cloak with an Ouroboros pattern walked out from the entrance.
He took a step and landed on the void, causing a ripple to spread across it. He then stood steadily in the air, clearly possessing spatial abilities...
Under the gaze of a crowd of devils and monsters, the handsome man in the Ouroboros cloak walked on the void, slowly approaching the large worm statue, the symbol of Beelzebub, one of the Seven Great Devils.
The handsome man in the Ouroboros cloak scanned the surroundings and then smiled and nodded.
“Hoo hoo hoo!~”
“It’s Lord Carib!”
“Lord Carib, I love you!”
“Hoo hoo hoo!~”
“Lord Carib, take my heart!”
“Take mine, take mine!”
...
After the handsome man in the Ouroboros cloak smiled, the entire Devil Evolution Arena once again became boisterous. A large number of monsters and devils, whose names Ye Feng couldn’t recall, cast flirtatious glances and shouted wildly at the handsome man in the Ouroboros cloak...
“Ye Feng, that fellow called Carib is an eighth-tier devil!”
Qiao Ying observed for a moment and then leaned close to Ye Feng’s ear and said.
“Eighth-tier devil... do they all possess spatial abilities...?”
Ye Feng frowned, his expression grave. “This is not something a human Diamond-level powerhouse can deal with... Without something special, even a human Epic-level powerhouse would probably have a hard time defeating him head-on...”
“That’s not true!”
Qiao Ying shook her head slightly. “Normal devils, even ninth-tier Archdevils, do not possess spatial abilities. But I don’t know how Carib acquired it... This should be an exception!”
“Brothers and sisters, the annual Gate of Evolution is about to open. Witness the birth of another Archdevil with me!”
At this moment, Carib spoke again.
“Wow!~”
As Carib’s words fell, the entire Devil Evolution Arena erupted in even more fervent cheers.
“Clang clang clang!”
Following that, sixteen rune-engraved iron gates at the very bottom platform of the Devil Evolution Arena slowly opened.
“Kill them!”
“Slay them!”
“I am the next Archdevil!”
“For the glory of Lord Beelzebub!”
“Charge!”
...
Before the rune-engraved iron gates were fully open, a large group of devils and monsters rushed out, emitting frantic roars as they engaged in combat...
In a short while, the entire Devil Evolution Arena was filled with a pungent smell of blood... The devils and monsters in the grandstands immediately let out more frenzied shouts... And the devils and monsters fighting in the Devil Evolution Arena fought even more fiercely...
“Big brother, what’s going on with those guys? Are they killing each other? And they... not only kill each other, but they also eat each other’s corpses...”
Xiao Xiao frowned, quite puzzled.
Ye Feng, who didn't know much about devils, immediately turned his gaze to Qiao Ying.
“I never understood why Archdevils mostly have such diverse abilities before. Perhaps the Devil Evolution Arena before us... is the answer...”
Qiao Ying looked at the devils and monsters, and even humans, in the arena who had already gone mad with bloodlust, their mouths continuously chewing on bloody things. “If I’m not mistaken, all those fighting in the Devil Evolution Arena are devils, including those who look like humans or monsters...”
“They fight each other, they devour each other... the surviving devils gain the abilities of other devils by eating them. And the more they survive to the end, the stronger they become and the more abilities they possess...”
“This is the origin of evolution in the Devil Evolution Arena... And what Carib just said about witnessing the birth of another Archdevil... refers to the devil who survives until the end of the Devil Evolution Arena...”
Qiao Ying quickly explained to Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao.
“Did Carib’s spatial ability come from killing divine messengers or a hellhound, or something like that?”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiao immediately had an idea.
“Devil Evolution Arena... slaughter, devour, evolve...”
Ye Feng muttered, his expression changing. “Qiao Ying, do you think... perhaps the entire City of No Sin is another very large Devil Evolution Arena... and those people we encountered before, almost all of them were killing and eating corpses...”
“Highly likely!”
Qiao Ying nodded. “The weakest entering the Devil Evolution Arena are fifth-tier devils... and some possess arcane energy, while some have parts of their bodies that are mechanical...”
“Big brother, should we keep watching?”
Due to the frantic shouts of the surrounding devils and monsters, and even their fighting, along with the pungent, fishy smell of blood filling the air, Xiao Xiao was already finding it unbearable.
“Big brother... I saw two sixth-tier devils leave in a hurry earlier... why don’t we follow them... or while all the devils are watching the fight, we can look for clues about the Stone of Hope?”
After a pause, Xiao Xiao pointed in a direction and suggested.
“Mm! Alright!”
Ye Feng nodded. There was no point in staying here any longer.
Besides, it was possible that a crazy devil might sense Qiao Ying’s angelic power and attack her, which would expose him, the fake Archdevil Xilifu...
After all, there was an Archdevil named Carib in the Devil Evolution Arena who seemed to hold a high position...
