At that moment, Lourain and Marth had already finished placing their bets. On their way back, they heard various conversations. Everyone seemed to say that Fane was a truly useless idiot who only knew how to brag.
They had complicated feelings every time they heard similar conversations. Both of them knew Fane's skills very well.
In the Seven Deaths Array, they had been practically surrounded by danger. In the end, Fane relied on his own skills to turn things around. The golden difficulty was not something everyone could challenge. They even wondered if Percy and Randall would be able to successfully attempt it.
Lourain laughed and said, "I was the same as them initially, but I was so wrong."
Marth looked around and said, "Just ignore them. No matter what, they will know the truth in the end. I don't think Fane's someone who enjoys saying empty words. The fact that he dared to say all of that means he's absolutely capable of handling everything. Star Continent will have to pay a heavy price if they want to make things difficult for him. In the end, one side will have to admit defeat, and I think that will be Star Continent."
Marth sounded very sure of himself when he said that. In truth, he was not that familiar with Fane, but they had experienced quite a bit together. With Marth's understanding of Fane, Fane was definitely not someone who would give out empty brags just to make himself look better. He did not need to do that. Everyone thought that Fane's actions were absurd and arrogant purely because they did not know Fane.
Lourain turned to look at Marth. He said, "Fane really is very strong, I witnessed it with you. However, he's just too confident. Star Confident won't be so easy to deal with. He really crossed the line just now. He basically stepped on the faces of every warrior from Star Continent.
"It's already past the level where they can ever reconcile. Star Continent won't let him off that easily. Even if they know he's not an ordinary person, it still won't be that easy for them to forget him. After all, this concerns their dignity. They stick to you like glue.
"There are so many of them as well. Even the top warriors would not dare to offend Star Continent that easily. Fane's just being too reckless."
Marth frowned. Lourain made sense, but Marth still felt like Fane did all of that because Fane felt like he would be able to handle it. Furthermore, Star Continent really did cross the line.
Otherwise, the black-robed man would not have gone against them as Fane did. They had been commanded to stand up like slaves to give way. Every warrior had their own pride and dignity. Even though most of them stood up, none of them did it willingly.
Fane had extraordinary ability and talent. It was normal for him to come into conflict with Star Continent. However, Fane did not even take a single step back, immediately escalating the conflict to the highest point.
Marth suddenly felt like it was both expected and unexpected. When the two of them returned to their seats, they sat down obediently, not saying another word.
"My god! The odds have already dropped down to 1.03!" Percy's odds had dropped from the initial 1.2 to 1.03. It was already practically even. No matter how much anyone betted, they would not profit that much.
