As everyone discussed, Grim Demon felt extremely uncomfortable standing in the arena.
This should have been a stage where he slaughtered everyone and made everyone tremble in fear, letting them know that he, Grim Demon, had returned. But now, all he could do was stand there and do nothing.
Although he had tried his best to make himself look cool and powerful, Grim Demon was extremely unhappy when he thought about how he would have to admit defeat in the future.
That despicable human. If it weren't for Her Excellency Demonic Neonate, I would have blasted him to smithereens, Grim Demon thought gloomily.
Since he was only here to stall for time, Grim Demon closed his eyes and waited for time to slowly pass.
Just an hour later, Grim Demon suddenly felt that something was amiss. When he opened his eyes, he realized that the Invisibility Cloak had been forcefully ejected from the cube's arena. He had also won.
What's going on? Grim Demon was pleasantly surprised as he thought to himself, You can't blame me for this. That thing admitted defeat.
Zhou Wen wasn't the only one who was stunned by this sudden situation. All the humans on Earth were stunned.
Soon, people realized what had happened.
"Isn't this too much of a bully? Why is the Companion Beast judged to have lost within an hour, but the Guardian is judged to have won? "
"It's unfair!"
"I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen someone this shameless. If they want to judge the loss, they should be judged to have lost together. Why is the Guardian judged to have won just by standing there motionless?"
Everyone was furious and condemned him, but it was of no use.
The ranking battle continued, and everything was still under the control of the dimension.
People couldn't help but feel sad. They were clearly going to choose the King of Earth, but Earth's creatures didn't even have the right to choose.
Zhou Wen and Wang Lu were also stunned by this shameless operation. Wang Lu said angrily, "These fellows are too much of a bully."
Zhou Wen snapped to his senses and said thankfully, "I'm already very lucky. Thankfully, they didn't judge Grim Demon as the loser. Otherwise, the situation would only be worse."
However, Zhou Wen had already thought about it. It was unlikely that both of them would be eliminated. That way, there would be no first place.
If the second place were to fill in, it would still be Zhong Ziya. First place wouldn't fall into the hands of an outsider.
However, this way, Zhou Wen's plan of using Grim Demon to stall for 48 hours would fail. All he could do was let Grim Demon continue accepting challenges.
"You want to fight? Then let's fight. "Zhou Wen was somewhat confident in Grim Demon's strength.
No matter what, this fellow already had the strength of a Terror-grade. It shouldn't be a problem for him to defeat ordinary Guardians.
As long as it wasn't a Guardian challenge at the level of Night Thearch, Grim Demon should definitely win.
Many Guardians challenged Grim Demon. Zhou Wen had previously learned about some of them. After watching some of their battles and looking at the challenge list, he got Demonic Neonate to inform Grim Demon to accept one of the Guardians' challenges.
"I have to win." Zhou Wen finally got Demonic Neonate to pass the message to Grim Demon.
Demonic Neonate only needed to inform Grim Demon with a thought. Grim Demon was overjoyed when he heard that, but he still muttered, "Why are you picking an opponent? My strength is enough to suppress everything. No matter how many of those brats come, they will only die."
However, despite saying that, Grim Demon still accepted the challenge of a Guardian named Darkness Emissary according to Demonic Neonate's message.
This Guardian, Darkness Emissary, had previously been interviewed by the Federation Freedom Investigation Bureau. It was a rather inspirational story.
A youth from a small city had entered a famous school with excellent results. After graduation, he took one step at a time and became an outstanding freelance hunter. Then, he received the blessings of the heavens and unexpectedly encountered a Guardian cocoon. It happened to match his hidden talent, allowing him to become a top figure in the Federation.
At that moment, Wei Ge was holding a teacup in one hand. As he watched the livestream, he flipped through the information beside him. The content of the information was regarding Darkness Emissary.
After Wei Ge graduated, he went through a lot of setbacks before finally entering the Special Investigation Bureau. He started as an ordinary inspector and was now only a lowly archivist.
Although this was only an ordinary archive room of the bureau, the information Wei Ge could come into contact with was incomparable to what he had in the past.
He wasn't in a hurry either. He persisted in combing through the files every day. Others weren't willing to do such boring work, but he enjoyed it. Now, Wei Ge knew all the files in the archive room like the back of his hand.
Darkness Emissary and Zhou Ming's information was also among them. When he saw Darkness Emissary enter the arena, he pulled out his information to take a look.
They both have the same surname, Zhou, but why is there such a huge difference in their conduct? Wei Ge couldn't help but sigh after reading Darkness Emissary's information.
The information obtained by the bureau naturally wasn't as simple as it seemed. From the basic information, not only was Zhou Ming ruthless, but he also didn't care about friendship.
His background was indeed not good. He had a girlfriend in high school, and her family didn't despise him. They even paid for him to attend a famous school. In the end, after he made a comeback, he abandoned his girlfriend and found a beautiful one.
Wei Ge looked at his girlfriend's photo. Indeed, she wasn't beautiful. She could only be considered ordinary and a little fat. It was likely that Zhou Ming's motives for being with her in the beginning weren't pure.
Later, the girl's parents argued with Zhou Ming and were even injured by him. He really didn't care about their past relationship.
Zhou Ming had done such things many times in secret. He was a person who only wanted to climb up.
As Wei Ge was looking at the information, he suddenly heard the door to the archives open and a person walk in.
Wei Ge was a very meticulous person. When he heard the footsteps, he realized that they were different from people who often came to the archives. He hurriedly looked up and saw who it was. He immediately stood up and saluted. "Director-General, why are you here? If you need any files, just let me know. I'll send them to you."
Shen Yuchi smiled. "Don't be nervous. Show me Darkness Emissary's file. So it's already here. You're also interested. Not bad."
With that said, Shen Yuchi took out the file on the table and flipped through it.
"I happened to see Darkness Emissary fight, so I took it out to take a look and organize it," Wei Ge said.
Shen Yuchi nodded slightly and didn't say a word. After reading a few pages, Shen Yuchi asked casually, "You are a top graduate of Sunset College. You should know Zhou Wen, right?"
Wei Ge immediately answered, "Yes, Director-General. Zhou Wen is my junior. When he entered the college, I was already the president of the student council."
"Do you know much about him?" Shen Yuchi looked at the information and continued asking without raising his head.
"Some. I originally wanted to pull him into the student council, but I didn't expect him to have no interest in it," Wei Ge said.
