Ren Yuanhao did not reply, his ears completely filled with the deafening roar welcoming the birth of a new king.
It was as if he were an insignificant character, or perhaps a clown making a fool of himself.
The moment he thought this, a strange smile flickered across his lips.
What was terrifying was that on the ability index tester suspended above the arena, Ren Yuanhao's ability index instantly surpassed 8000! The indicator light even shone a brilliant dark gold!
The cheers of the entire audience came to an abrupt halt, like the sudden silence of cicadas on a summer night when a thunderstorm descends!
Immediately after, a storm of discussion, accompanied by immense fear, swept through the stands.
"No, impossible! This, this reading must be faulty!"
"8000! This ability index, it surpasses all Four Kings!"
"Could this new king have truly been suppressing his abilities all along?"
In this region where strength was paramount, absolute power was enough to make those who had underestimated Ren Yuanhao's head ache, with the sounds of their pride being crushed echoing everywhere.
Ren Yuanhao let out a cold sneer, emanating a chilling aura of killing intent!
"Now, do you still think I'm here to die?"
With every breath, he exhaled a roar like the wind. Though his hands were empty of any weapons, vortexes of wind were rapidly gathering in them.
The ability index tester's dark gold light continued to change rapidly, finally emitting a deeply unsettling alarm!
Following this, the tester's light suddenly turned red!
"9000!"
Jelo slammed his fist on the table and leaped onto the arena like a wild beast.
The entire world was suddenly filled with the piercing, knife-like sound of the wind. Ren Yuanhao forcefully brought the two vortexes in his hands together!
Dark clouds converged, and the sky darkened. At this moment, on the observation deck in the S-class area, Vitas watched the scene with a cold gaze, his eye twitching involuntarily!
"What level of elemental ability is this?" Vitas clenched his fists, his pupils flashing with captivating killing intent, an intent undeniably aimed at Ren Yuanhao, who was causing the heavens and earth in the region to change color!
The colossal vortexes drew in all the surrounding dark clouds, and a immense pressure descended like a massive stone hanging over everyone's hearts. Of course, the primary recipients of this pressure were Jelo and the masked man on the arena.
"Bastard, tell me, is this a slaughter, or a match!"
Ren Yuanhao's voice was amplified by the wind to a deafening roar.
Facing Ren Yuanhao's aggressive, top-tier pressure, the masked man's mask suddenly shattered into pieces.
His face was a mess of crisscrossing scars from swords and blades, hideously ugly. And under this overwhelming pressure that completely surpassed his own, his legs felt an urge to prostrate themselves and worship!
The spectators had even forgotten to breathe, their eyes fixed unblinkingly on the arena. Perhaps, in their entire lives, they would never witness such terrifying pressure, such a terrifying display of abilities.
The masked man remained silent, but the more he refused to speak, the greater the pressure of his abilities grew!
"Speak!"
Ren Yuanhao's voice was like a thunderclap!
"How dare you! Withdraw your abilities immediately! Otherwise, don't blame me for taking action!"
As he spoke, Jelo's eyes suddenly turned green, and another ability index reader also lit up red in an instant!
"9000!"
Jelo's ability index also surged past nine thousand in an instant, with an upward trend.
He hadn't even used his full strength yet.
"The Three Kings?" Ren Yuanhao's voice was as cold as a blade. "I only want him to answer my question. Don't think that just because you are one of the Three Kings, you can stop me from killing him. You cannot stop me!"
As Ren Yuanhao uttered these words, the spectators' bodies felt as if they had plunged into an ice cave.
In their hearts, the Eight Kings were like gods. Even more so, the one standing on the arena now was Jelo, the third among the Eight Kings.
And opposite him was merely a newcomer.
How could a newcomer dare to roar at a god?
At this moment, only two people among the spectators showed ecstatic joy, as if their souls were trembling.
Jelo's voice was equally thunderous, "Do you truly believe I cannot stop you?"
"You can try, but I cannot guarantee that the Three Kings will still exist in this world!"
Ren Yuanhao's gaze shifted, and the alarm sound of the ability index tester rose again. The red color transformed once more into a deep, blood-like crimson!
Ability Index: 9500!
When this number appeared, even Rossi, who was perched on the table, was excited, feeling as if his soul was trembling from experiencing the two clashing abilities at such close proximity.
"Get out of the way!"
Ren Yuanhao's voice grew colder and more piercing with each word he spoke, the ability index reading changing by a hundred units with every sentence.
"Are you, trying to rebel?"
Although Jelo was one of the Three Kings, this newcomer's strength was causing him to lose face. He had to teach such a troublemaker a lesson!
He suddenly let out a tiger's roar, his eyes changing from green to blue, with blood-red patterns like fine threads flickering in his pupils!
At the same time, his ability index directly broke the ten-thousand mark!
The indicator light instantly exploded.
Most of the spectators were feeling dizzy and disoriented. The ability pressure that surpassed ten thousand, even from afar, made them feel extremely uncomfortable.
And at this very moment, a system alert chimed in Ren Yuanhao's mind.
"Beep, the opponent is an extremely rare animal-type ability user. Be careful."
Ren Yuanhao paid no mind to this. Since the demon was a foot taller, he would be a foot taller still!
When it came to escalating ability indices, Ren Yuanhao had never been afraid.
Bang!
The light on Ren Yuanhao's ability index instrument also exploded instantly, the reading stopping at 11000!
"Do you want to continue escalating? Three Kings, I'll accompany you!"
Ren Yuanhao looked down coldly. The masked man had already prostrated himself on the ground under Ren Yuanhao's pressure. Jelo, being so suppressed by a newcomer, naturally couldn't stand losing face. He was about to push his ability index to its limit when another man suddenly appeared on the arena.
Everyone was stunned, then their faces turned pale, and a deathly silence fell.
That person was none other than the Second King, Vitas!
"All of you, stop!" Vitas, enduring the pressure from both sides, managed to force both of their ability indices down to 9000!
Just this display of power was enough to make everyone present gasp in disbelief.
"Newcomer, acting presumptuously on our turf, is that appropriate?" Vitas first roared at Ren Yuanhao, then followed up by reprimanding, "Jelo, as the referee and supervisor, allowing this fellow to kill our countrymen, you are also guilty of dereliction of duty. Why haven't you stopped him?"
Ren Yuanhao had no intention of stopping. While enduring the pressure, he kept his own pressure locked onto the masked man and said coldly, "As long as this man kneels before the Puppet Master and apologizes, I will stop. Otherwise, even your arrival as the Second King will be useless."
