412: Selfless teacher
In the black market.
Azeia, seeing the Arena results, jumped up in excitement, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He never imagined that facing such a terrifying Phoenix Bird, Lin Tianwei could turn the tide and ultimately win the match.
Azeia couldn't even discern what power Lin Tianwei had used to achieve victory.
But none of that mattered; what was most important was that this bet with one-to-one thousand odds had pulled off an upset, making him incredibly rich.
I'm rich.
Azeia had only this one thought in his mind.
Some were happy, some were sad.
As the odds were upset, Azeia rejoiced, but countless Cosmic Beasts fell into despair.
Passionate about financial management, they finally suffered a backlash, paying the price for their arrogance and ignorance.
Facing insurmountable debt, becoming a Slave might be their ultimate fate.
Among the wailing Cosmic Beasts, however, two Cosmic Beasts were absolutely ecstatic.
Who else could it be but Tore and Luo Ji?
As Lin Tianwei went further and further on his winning streak, his reputation gradually spread, becoming known to many Cosmic Beasts.
They were shocked to hear that a monster named “Lin” had appeared in the Law Arena, possessing overwhelming power and rapidly climbing the ranks.
At first, the two beasts thought it was just a coincidence.
They firmly believed that their powerful Lord Lin could never be a young beast less than a hundred years old.
However, as Lin Tianwei’s performance became more and more dominant, they began to feel that this indeed was the kind of power only Lin Tianwei could possess.
Since he had already decided to work for Lin Tianwei, Luo Ji naturally didn't consider himself an outsider.
After much thought, he finally decided to directly ask Lin Tianwei.
He wanted to ask if the Cosmic Beast dominating the Law Arena was Lin Tianwei.
“It's me.”
These two simple words, delivered in an incredibly calm tone, deeply shocked Luo Ji, once again refreshing his worldview with Lin Tianwei’s power, and he secretly thought that he had indeed made the most correct choice of his life.
Although everything pointed to Lin Tianwei being unable to defeat the Phoenix Bird, Luo Ji had a mysterious confidence in Lin Tianwei.
Looking at the astounding one-thousand-to-one odds, Luo Ji gritted his teeth and decided to bet his entire fortune on Lin Tianwei, on this Lord Lin who had never disappointed him.
For him, this was nothing short of a high-stakes gamble, betting everything he owned.
Although he successfully became the general manager for the Lotus Slave Market in the Extreme Cold Domain, Luo Ji’s life was not easy.
His shallow foundation simply couldn't support him in establishing a firm foothold in the Lotus Slave Market.
Outwardly, he was the general manager, but secretly, his subordinates were insincere, giving him little support.
Especially the powerful managers, who even showed a trend of subtly uniting to challenge Luo Ji.
To break through these obstacles and become a truly deserving general manager, Luo Ji needed to possess overwhelming power.
Strength? Luo Ji couldn't possibly achieve a rapid increase in strength in a short time.
Then the only solution to the dilemma was yuan crystal and origin.
Only a large amount of yuan crystal and origin could possibly allow Luo Ji to carve out a broad path in such a predicament.
Although he had Lin Tianwei’s promise of one intervention, Luo Ji dared not use it recklessly.
Because he knew deeply that it was the only trump card he possessed.
In this situation, the appearance of this betting market seemed to be an existence naturally born to solve Luo Ji’s problems.
Facts also proved that Lin Tianwei could not disappoint Luo Ji’s trust, undoubtedly winning in this Arena.
Luo Ji also seized this opportunity to get rich, acquiring the capital to contend with other managers.
“With the help of these funds, I finally have the capital to deal with these clowns.”
“Lord Lin has given me too much time; now it’s time for me to present him with a satisfactory answer.”
Looking at the endless starry sky before him, Luo Ji muttered to himself.
On the other side.
Tore’s skin was still too thin, and he ultimately didn’t dare to ask Lin Tianwei for the truth of the matter.
However, moved by the identical name, Tore still decided to bet three hundred yuan crystals on Lin Tianwei.
He firmly believed that this name represented strength and would surely bring him good luck.
And indeed, just as Tore expected, he received a hefty three hundred thousand yuan crystals as a reward.
Even though he was prepared, when he saw the result, he still felt a sense of unreality.
What followed was excitement, immense excitement.
As a pauper, he once again enjoyed the protection of Lord Lin, obtaining a large sum of yuan crystals.
With the support of this terrifying amount of yuan crystals, his lifelong dream might truly be realized.
Thinking this, Tore once again looked in the direction of the Lotus Slave Market.
However, his normally carefree expression now showed a strangely sorrowful look.
Tore's background was tragic, even extremely tragic.
Returning from his travels, he never imagined that his home planet would directly become a Slave planet.
Even his clansmen living on the planet were all reduced to Slaves.
The reason, it turned out, was simply because an immature young beast from his clan had howled at the offspring of a certain important figure.
This important figure was powerful, an existence Tore simply couldn't contend with.
Weakness was the original sin, and Tore deeply felt this point.
He didn't even harbor thoughts of seeking revenge on that important figure.
His only wish was to diligently earn yuan crystals, hoping to buy back all his clansmen who had been reduced to Slaves.
Although the effect of the control chip was irreversible, as long as his clansmen were still alive, there was at least a glimmer of hope for recovery.
Before meeting Lin Tianwei, although Tore worked hard enough, the mission to rescue his clansmen made no progress.
It might take decades or even a century to rescue a single clansman.
He couldn't even afford the lowest-grade slave space primal stone.
Perhaps Tore would exhaust his entire lifespan without being able to rescue all his clansmen.
But now it was different; Tore had received Lin Tianwei’s protection, and he possessed the power to change his own destiny and the destiny of all his clansmen.
Even if it meant attracting the covetousness of enemies, he would not hesitate to continue… Lin Tianwei didn't know that a single Arena of his could change the fate of countless Cosmic Beasts; at this moment, he had already returned to the training room.
Of course, even if Lin Tianwei knew, he would only smile dismissively.
This was the sorrow of the weak; a casual action by the strong could affect their destinies.
“Ding, congratulations on successfully killing your opponent and winning this Arena.”
“Your offensive rating for this Arena is: B, barely killed it.”
“Your defensive rating for this Arena is: F, you survived by cheating, you should have died.”
“Ding, since your opponent’s strength is one major stage lower than yours, the overall Arena rating remains unchanged.”
“Ding, your final overall Arena rating is: C, you can only obtain fifty percent of the points.”
“Ding, after calculation, you have obtained a total of two hundred and fifty thousand points for this Arena victory (base points 5000 * C-level rating 50% * Purgatory difficulty bonus 5000% * personal top-tier rating bonus * 200%).”
...“Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a new target.”
“Ding, Talent extraction successful, host has obtained Talent: Core Code (Extraordinary) (Incomplete) (105 / 10000).”
“Note: Congratulations to the host, your Talent: Core Code (Extraordinary) (Incomplete) collection progress has reached 1675 / 10000.”
...“Ding, your rating and ranking have been updated and can be viewed through the panel.”
...“Name: Lin.
Age: 49 years old.
Strength: Cosmic Level Seven.
Ranking: 101.
Points: Ninety-eight million+.
Rating: Top-tier (Challenge Points +100%).
Note: It’s incredible that you were able to win this Arena; perhaps you truly have the potential to achieve immortality.
Special Note: Since you currently do not possess a Domain, your ranking and rating cannot advance further.”
Looking at the settlement information displayed before him, Lin Tianwei sighed slightly.
This most arduous Arena since he connected to the Law Arena provided him with very few points.
Perhaps to farm points, he should give up on high-difficulty Arena matching?
This thought had barely appeared in Lin Tianwei’s mind before it instantly vanished.
Failure wasn’t scary; what was scary was losing the determination to move forward bravely.
If Lin Tianwei retreated this time, he would still choose to retreat next time, and he would never be able to become stronger.
This was also why Lin Tianwei appeared in the training ground.
He intended to continue training himself until he could master a Domain.
Although the Phoenix Bird lost, it wasn’t because his Reincarnation Domain wasn't powerful enough; it was simply because he was countered by Lin Tianwei.
If it were any other Cosmic Beast that had mastered a Domain, Lin Tianwei wouldn't have had any chance of victory.
These Cosmic Beasts wouldn't leave such a fatal flaw for him like the Phoenix Bird did.
To advance further, Lin Tianwei could only constantly grow stronger, making himself even more powerful.
Although he had experienced the power of the Reincarnation Domain up close, Lin Tianwei was still at a loss as to how to cultivate a Domain.
Filiche’s memories couldn't possibly contain methods for cultivating a Domain.
No other reason than his level was still too low; he simply wasn’t at a stage to encounter Domains.
After a brief thought, Lin Tianwei quickly found a way to break the deadlock.
He truly didn't understand how to comprehend a Domain, but it didn't matter; he happened to know a selfless teacher who would surely be willing to teach him how to comprehend the power of a Domain.
Thinking this, Lin Tianwei directly activated the training ground's simulation function and quickly summoned the massive and flamboyant Phoenix Bird.
With the familiar scene online, the Phoenix Bird didn't even give Lin Tianwei a chance to speak; it arrogantly raised its head and, burning its life force, activated its Reincarnation Domain.
He always dealt with enemies with a single fatal blow.
Yet he didn't know that it was precisely because of his arrogance that he would fall into an abyss of eternal damnation.
Previously in the Arena, Lin Tianwei didn't have time to slowly argue with the Phoenix Bird, but now it was different.
In the training ground, he had all the time in the world to slowly argue with the Phoenix Bird.
Once the opponent entered a state of exhaustion, Lin Tianwei could do whatever he wanted to him.
Things unfolded exactly as Lin Tianwei had predicted; the Phoenix Bird quickly burned out its life, turning into a faint candlelight.
However, this time, what attacked him was not a Mental Power shockwave, but an unbreakable Mental Power cage.
At the Phoenix Bird’s most triumphant moment, it was directly captured, becoming Lin Tianwei’s prisoner.
The Phoenix Bird, now a captive, still maintained its arrogant demeanor, its candlelight flickering as it shrieked:
“Ant, do you know what you’re doing? Release me at once, or I will absolutely ensure you die without a burial place.”
“You lost this Arena, be sensible and admit defeat quickly.”
“Although the Law Arena is powerful, it cannot protect you in all situations.”
“With a single thought, I can completely obliterate your consciousness.”
The desperate Phoenix Bird was truly vicious, and its mouth was full of lies.
What was the Law Arena? It was the creation of the Heavensea God-King, so how could it possibly fail to protect the participating Cosmic Beasts from a mere Reincarnation Domain?
Lin Tianwei was too lazy to waste words with such a Cosmic Beast that couldn't see the situation clearly; his Mental Power condensed into an arrow, and he immediately gave the cursing Phoenix Bird a piercing blow.
Not only that, the Mental Power arrow also exuded terrifying pressure, firmly suppressing the Phoenix Bird’s remaining consciousness, rendering it unable to move.
In this state, the Phoenix Bird couldn't even commit suicide.
After doing all this, Lin Tianwei put on a gentle expression and said to the Phoenix Bird:
“Make me die? I’m truly looking forward to it, looking forward to what you can do to me in this state.”
With that, Lin Tianwei directly opened the Mental Power cage and continued:
“Come on, begin your performance, perform how you’ll make me die without a burial place.”
Lin Tianwei’s words immediately startled the Phoenix Bird.
He felt that this flickering consciousness before him was simply a smiling tiger, whose words sounded better than his actions.
You want me to perform?
Then release the Mental Power arrow you’ve pinned on me.
If you only open the Mental Power cage and don't release the Mental Power arrow, I still can't do anything.
Under the suppression of Lin Tianwei’s powerful Mental Power, the Phoenix Bird even felt its consciousness beginning to freeze, unable to move.
The candlelight that could originally flicker now seemed to be frozen, unable to move.
A wise bird avoids immediate harm; it bows when it should.
Although he didn't know how Lin Tianwei, this weak young beast, had survived in his Reincarnation Domain.
But now, with the tiger as the butcher and the bird as the fish, he could only concede.
The Phoenix Bird deeply understood the essence of conceding and immediately changed its demeanor, saying sheepishly: “Boss, let’s talk nicely, that was just a misunderstanding.”
“We are fellow beasts, why fight and kill? We can absolutely sit down and talk about anything.”
“As long as it's something I can help with, as long as you, Boss, open your mouth, I will definitely not shirk my responsibility.”
Since he was still alive, it meant he had irreplaceable value in the other party’s eyes.
He could even use the other party's desires in reverse to achieve the goal of manipulating them.
This was also why the Phoenix Bird was temporarily so cooperative.
He wasn't afraid of any Cosmic Beast that had a request for him. (End of Chapter)
