Even though it was already midnight on Planet Saka, the hustle and bustle in the world's largest city had yet to subside.
Although many gladiators said that if death really came, they would rather die in the arena. In fact, no matter what race they were, no matter where they came from, people actually cherished their lives.
Gao Tianzun's championship battle had been held countless times. Every time, there would be a champion. However, there were only a dozen gladiators who participated in the competition as gladiators. The rest of the champions appeared in the form of "exhibition matches." Of course, many of the gladiators were indeed old and weak and could not fight with their lives on the line.
However, the problem was that there were many champions in their prime who chose to retreat.
This was very unwise.
"Get out! Get out! "
"Trash! Trash! "
"Boo! Boo! Boo! Boo!"
When the previous gladiator champion, the big man, Sieg, appeared in the exhibition match, there were unimaginable boos and insults from the audience. The big man's body was still as oppressive as before. His eyes were still fierce, and the weapon in his hand was still ferocious. However, things had changed. Even his favorite fans would spit in disdain.
This made the brave and fierce big man a little flustered. He stood in the arena and could not help but look back. He was surprised to find that Gao Tianzun, who had once thought highly of him, had also turned around and left at this moment. This was a move that Gao Tianzun, who liked to fight, rarely did. Obviously, he had been completely abandoned by the place that once brought him glory.
The brave and the fighter were actually the most cherished professions in this world. Because as long as you flinched once, this title would completely leave you.
"Drax, are you confident about your next opponent?"
Saber sat on the balcony of his single room, sharpening the scythe in his hand with a whetstone while asking casually.
Behind him, the Destroyer stood there humbly. From the promotion round to the second round of the elimination round, he had proven his strength. However, the next opponents were not easy to deal with.
Facing Saber's question, the big man scratched his head. Even with his simple mind, he did not dare to boast now. So he nodded and said in a deep voice,
"They are difficult to deal with, but I will do my best."
"Alright!"
Saber rubbed the edge of the scythe with his finger and felt the cold touch of the sharp blade. He nodded with satisfaction.
"It's already the elimination round. When necessary, I should use the power of the demons. This is the Gladiator Arena, not a duel. Here, victory is the true path of the king!"
He turned to look at the Destroyer and said solemnly,
"Once we enter the final circle, I'll bring you back to Earth and let you experience the true battlefield of death."
"Good! I won't let you down! "
The Destroyer thumped his chest with his fist, then turned and strode away. Behind him, Saber held the scythe in his arms and looked up at the starry sky that was completely different from Earth. This was a dead starry sky. In fact, because of its proximity to the black hole, there was almost no starlight in the sky of Planet Saka. If one's eyesight was good enough, it would be easy to see the rolling black tide hidden under the dark sky.
It was a black hole that distorted the starry sky. It was a display of the vast and mighty power of that mysterious place.
Saber leisurely picked up a cup of strange cosmic tea and looked at the exhibition match in the Gladiator Arena below.
"Chickens pecking at each other!"
This thought appeared in his mind, but before Saber could think of a more suitable word, a string in his mind snapped.
"Crack!"
The exquisite teacup in Saber's hand was crushed into pieces. Even the tea inside was dried up by the scorching flames. He stood up abruptly. The next moment, another string in his mind snapped again. Saber's expression became gloomy.
"Sim … Tengu …"
"Bang!"
A shadow swayed behind him. The War Spirit with the dark spear strode out of the dark space. The shadow rolled up an invisible storm behind her. The moment she appeared, the gorgeous carpet under her feet began to wind rapidly. It was as if time had accelerated under her feet. However, she did not care about this. Instead, she knelt behind Saber on one knee and was as quiet as a statue.
Saber flipped his left hand and a golden soul stone appeared in his hand. This action made the War Spirit raise her head.
"I know you still have a complete soul. You hate me, but the authority of the Dark Space's acting lord makes you unable to stab the weapon in your hand into my body …"
He stared at the Dark Valkyrie in front of him and said softly, "But I don't care.
"But I don't care, Yvette. If one day you have the ability to break free from all of this, I welcome you to kill me. Now, I will give you what you want … But you have to bring back what I want!"
"Buzz!"
The golden soul stone in Saber's hand was covered by the blue flame bit by bit. Pure energy was injected into it. Soon, the color of the soul stone turned from golden to blue. Saber swung his left hand and threw the soul stone into the air. Then, it suddenly exploded. As the fragments flew, the last Valkyrie that he killed personally appeared beside the War Spirit in another form.
She still maintained her original posture. Black hair, a pale face. Even the fear in her eyes remained at the moment when Saber broke her neck. However, her body was now floating in the air like a blue flame. Every time her body swayed, the surrounding temperature would become hotter. Her body floated in the air as if she was weightless. It was exactly the same as when the War Spirit first appeared.
There was no armor, no inner lining. Her beautiful body was completely exposed in the darkness of Planet Saka.
Obviously, this was an elemental creature born from a huge amount of energy reaction. It was given a special body by a huge amount of energy. It was the embodiment of the Flame of Killing God.
The Valkyrie Grey, who was awakened from death, was still a little confused about the current situation. She floated in the air and instinctively bared her teeth at Saber. However, she soon saw Arvette kneeling on the ground. She shouted in surprise.
"Sister! You … you're still alive? "
"No, I'm already dead. I died under Hel's sword."
Arvette spoke for the first time. Her voice was hoarse and gloomy, like a seduction from the depths of the darkness. The new acting lord of the Dark Space stood up. Her slender high heels, decorated with dark roses and skull carvings, stepped on the ground. She approached Grey, who was floating in the air, and reached out her hand to touch Grey's face.
"Of the 13 sisters, only the two of us are left now … Our oath to protect the throne has disappeared with our deaths."
She turned her head to look at Saber. Under the black crown of thorns, the pair of eyes that pulsed with a dark halo flashed with a stubborn arrogance.
"I still won't give my loyalty to you, Overlord, but if you can take back the souls of my remaining 11 sisters from Hel … We don't mind fighting for you, in the form of mercenaries …"
Saber tapped the scythe in his hand on the ground. The two Valkyries in front of him who had a common enemy almost touched their hearts at the same time and knelt on the ground with a pained expression.
"Recognize your identity! Prisoners! "
He looked at the two people in front of him indifferently. He said in a deep voice, "Your loyalty means nothing to me. You have no right to negotiate with me! Now, go find Kraglin! Search the entire universe according to the last coordinates sent by Yondu. Be sure to find the survivors! "
He narrowed his eyes and flicked his finger.
"Of course, if you do well enough to let me see the value of the Valkyries, I will consider your suggestion … Now, go and carry out my orders!"
The feeling of being suppressed from the very source of one's soul was naturally not a good feeling. Yvette and Grey looked at each other, turned into two light screens, and disappeared from Saber's room. After they left, Saber's heart still could not calm down.
The deaths of Sim and Tengu were accidental, but they came from Hell and the Demonic Realm respectively, and they had signed a contract with Saber. As long as Saber's soul did not dissipate, they could be revived in their respective dimensions. The problem was that these two guys were strong enough to fight. If they were placed in the arena of the Supreme Celestial Lords, they would be the champions. Now, they died in less than a minute, which meant that they met a difficult opponent.
Most importantly, Daitengu also shouldered the task of protecting Groot, and Groot was an extremely important part of Saber's plan for the future Utopia. Once something happened to Groot, the significance of Saber's trip to the Universe Star would instantly be reduced by one-third, which was something he could not bear.
And the appearance of this situation also meant that there was a new troublesome enemy on Saber's hate list.
"Shameless bastard, wait for me to free up my hands …"
"I will destroy you!"

Yondu's best spaceship pilot, Kraglin, was drunk on Saka Planet. When he was happily playing games with the alien lady, two violent Valkyries broke in and grabbed him and rushed into the starship that was ready to take off at any time.
And millions of light years away, a tattered escape capsule had just crashed on an unknown planet.
"Clang!"
Like a meteorite falling from the sky, with a scorching temperature caused by the strong friction with the air, it broke through the thick clouds and fell to the ground, smashing into the center of the primitive jungle.
Its surface was still shining with the light of a broken energy shield. This was the last bit of energy left in the broken engine. Under the control of the superb pilot, this last bit of energy was used for a terrible forced landing. The broken pumpkin-shaped aircraft smashed a deep hole in the ground in the primitive jungle and broke a dozen trees in a row before finally coming to a stop at the edge of the lake that shone with the light of dusk in the midst of the excruciating crash.
Dust flew into the air, startling the beasts in the jungle. The alien monsters howled and fled from the disaster. After more than ten minutes of silence, the hull of the spaceship, which had lost its protection, was cut open by a scorching laser. It was then rudely kicked open.
Nebula, whose face was covered in soot, grabbed the delicate Mantis by the collar and rudely dragged her out of the wreckage of the spaceship as easily as dragging a chick.
Nebula was the adopted daughter of the Mad Titan Thanos, Thanos. When she and Gamora were young, Thanos adopted orphans from various planets and races, intending to train them as his own dark warriors. Unfortunately, in the end, only Gamora and Nebula were left in the cruel elimination process. It could be seen that this girl, who had 80% of her body transformed, was also a truly ruthless character.
And Mantis, a larva who had luckily escaped from the battlefield of certain death, was a pet raised by Igo. As far as her own ability was concerned, she was no match for the ruthless Nebula at all.
The two fought desperately, but only a minute later, Mantis was punched in the face by Nebula. She curled up into a ball on the ground, shivering like a salted fish.
"Zeng!"
A section of an alloy knife popped out from Nebula's wrist. Her body, which had been transformed by Thanos, was now a deadly weapon. But just as she was about to kill the opponent in front of her with a brutal look on her face, she was stopped by another voice.
"Ahem, enough … Enough!"
Rocket climbed out of the wreckage of the spaceship with difficulty. There was a fatal wound on his abdomen, which was torn open by the twisted joystick when he fell. Blood was dripping from the wound.
He fell to the ground from the wreckage of the spaceship. He raised his head with difficulty, stretched out his bloody hand, and stopped Nebula's rampage.
"There are only three of us left. Now is not the time to kill each other!"
"You two are useless in my opinion!"
Nebula touched the dust on her face with disdain. She said fiercely, "I can live better if I kill you!"
"But what about Thanos?"
Rocket covered the wound on his abdomen. The demon contract gave him a self-healing ability that far exceeded his instinct. But at this time, he needed to solve the problem in front of him with wisdom rather than force. He shouted loudly,
"Kamora told us everything. Everything she did was to escape from Thanos' control. What about you? You joined forces with Ronan to sneak attack Kamora and steal the power stone. Didn't you want to leave that crazy Titan? "
"Shut up! You hamster! If it weren't for you, I would have been free long ago! "
This poked Nebula's sore spot. She screamed, "I will kill him with my own hands. I will peel off his skin and let him feel the pain I once suffered. I will cut off his flesh bit by bit! Then I will kill him! I swear! "
"But you can't do it!"
Raccoon lay on the ground for nearly two minutes. The wound on his abdomen had begun to heal. He stood up from the ground with difficulty. He looked at Nebula and said in a deep voice,
"Why did Kamora get involved in this mess? It was because Overlord told her that as long as she completed this adventure, he would protect her from Thanos's claws … "
He looked at Nebula with his black eyes.
"You know about Overlord, right? You saw how he easily defeated the New Star Army … You and I both know that he can help you! Put down your sword now. Let's work together and leave this godforsaken place. I know where to find him. You have the chance too! "
Raccoon took a deep breath. He looked at Nebula, who had a hesitant expression, and said softly,
"The choice is in your hands now!"
