The moment the fox died, the barrier around the arena completely dispersed. Fane finally let out a sigh of relief as he breathed in the air from outside. It was finally done.
Even though the three matches were actually not that difficult for Fane, he did not want to waste any more time in the outer city.
After the fox died, its body turned back into energy and was absorbed by Hundred Beast city. Once the energy had been completely absorbed, a bundle of black smoke suddenly formed in the air.
The smoke got denser and denser before it finally condensed together and formed a medal that was about the size of half a palm. Fane reached out and the medal fell into his hand.
That was the famous black iron medal It was the highest honor in the outer city.
Fane had not felt anything when he saw someone else with it earlier, but now that he got it himself. Fane was actually quite elated.
His lips curled up slightly as he walked over to Rudy. Rudy was already waving his hands excitedly as he shouted, but Fane could not hear him due to the distance.
Fane merely nodded at him before he put the medal in his hand into Mustard Seed. He did not plan on wearing it since it attracted too much attention. It would only invite looks of envy and admiration from others, but Fane did not care about that.
No matter where he want, Fane merely wanted to maintain a low profile. That was because attracting attention without a background would only invite endless trouble.
If not because of that, Fane would not have changed his name and his looks. The three matches had already ended, so all of the arguments and fights before had lost all meaning. The results were out!
Fane had won. He had won incredibly easily. Other than the first match taking up some time, the second and third had been quick. He had only used three attacks in total!
Compared to others who battled to their limits, Fane had won far too easily! It had been so easy that many of them could not believe what they saw was real. They felt like they were dreaming.
"He won! He actually won!" "It was one to seven odds. I would be rich if I had just bet on him!"
Quite a few spectators were filled with regret at that moment. They were tempted to chop off their own hands, lamenting their choices. Why did they decide to believe in others and bet on the beast?!
If they had bet on Lucius, then they would have been rich. Betting one million would have given them seven million back! Just thinking about it got them emotional!
The gap was so great that some of them could not calm down. Those who had been tempted to bet on Fane were all furious.
"It's your fault, you bunch of idiots! Otherwise, I'd be getting seven million right now!" "I bet eight hundred thousand spirit crystals, and they're all gone now. That was my whole fortune. I'm done for!"
Rudy felt a sense of relief hearing everyone's regrets. They had all been so adamant that Fane was worth nothing, saying that Fane was just a clown that only knew how to show off. They finally knew who the real clowns were.
