The tip of the dagger was already in contact with his neck. The cold air almost covered half of his throat, making him feel like he was about to suffocate.
No matter how much he didn't want to admit it, he had no choice but to do so in the face of death. He gritted his teeth and used the last of his strength to force the cold air out. "I … admit defeat!"
Boom!!!
The moment the sound of admitting defeat disappeared, the entire Ice Mirror World was completely destroyed and exploded. The array that enveloped the entire arena was activated at the same time. Powerful cold air gushed out wildly. Fortunately, the staff in the arena guided the cold air to the sky. Otherwise, the cold air alone would be enough to kill many of the exotic beasts on the spectator stands.
When the array was activated, all the spectators' bodies shook violently! Without a doubt, this meant that the battle was over. All the spectators immediately stood up and stretched their necks to look at the arena. They wanted to know the result.
Under their gaze, the arena was full of ice crystals that emitted colorful light. When the ice crystals fell to the ground like raindrops and dissipated, all the spectators could clearly see everything in the arena.
Both Suo Dun and Lu An were dozens of feet apart. Both of them looked normal. Neither of them seemed to be injured.
What was going on?
Who won?!
This was related to their bets. Just as all the spectators began to raise their doubts, a voice suddenly covered the entire duel arena, forcefully suppressing all the clamor.
"This battle! Lu An wins! "
As soon as the voice appeared, the noisy clamor came to an abrupt end. There was dead silence.
Immediately afterward, a small group of people cheered loudly. They held the betting tickets in their hands as if they had gone crazy!
However, even these cheering spectators were confused … How did this human win? Both sides of the battle looked unharmed. Could it be that this was a rigged match?!
Immediately, voices of doubt began to appear on the spectator stands, and it became louder and louder. This kind of situation had happened before, but this time it was exceptionally big. It couldn't be helped. The bets placed by these exotic beasts were too big. However, even so, they didn't dare to cause trouble. The owner of Deep Shark City, the Deep Shark Clan, was not someone they could provoke.
After the host announced the result, Lu An was about to leave. However, just as he was about to turn around, a voice suddenly sounded!
"How did you crack the Mirror World?" Narrow Dun took a step forward and asked loudly, "There's no way you weren't affected!"
Lu An paused and looked at Suo Dun. To tell the truth, he had only come here to fight. He had no enmity with Suo Dun. Although Suo Dun had shown a lot of ferocity in the battle, he didn't have much killing intent. He didn't have any malicious intent towards him. After all, this was a duel. It was normal to have killing intent in order to win.
After thinking about it, Lu An opened his mouth and said calmly, "Space is immovable."
Suo Dun's body shook as he looked at Lu An in astonishment.
That's right, space was immobile. The reason why Lu An was able to move so smoothly and easily was because he had used his spatial perception.
No matter how much the water mirror world affected one's perception, the space was fixed. Lu An, who had spatial perception, could directly perceive the state of the space and would not be affected by other senses. Unless the water mirror world had the ability to distort space, Lu An would never be confused.
Looking at Suo Dun who was in a daze, Lu An did not explain further and flew directly to the waiting room.
When Lu An entered the waiting room, the Level Seven Mystical Beasts in the room immediately shook. Their eyes were filled with fear. Although they did not know if this was a rigged match, this human had won after all. They could not help but respect him.
Lu An did not want to stay for long. He left the waiting room and walked into the corridor. He was going to find the staff to collect his bet. However, just as he was halfway there, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him out of thin air.
It was none other than the supervisor of the duel arena.
He had already met the supervisor twice, so it was not surprising to see him. The supervisor spoke directly and said with a smile, "It will take some time to prepare the bet. Why don't you come to my place and sit for a while?"
Lu An nodded after thinking for a while and said, "Okay."
When they arrived at the supervisor's office, the maid served them tea. The supervisor took a sip and could not help but say, "Although I don't know what happened in the water mirror world, you were able to defeat Suo Dun in a situation where both sides were uninjured. It's really brilliant and admirable."
That was right. Even with the supervisor's strength, he did not know what happened inside. The reason the hosts knew that Lu An had won was that they had the means to hear the sound inside, which was the sound of Suo Dun admitting defeat. As for what exactly happened, they did not know.
"It's alright." Lu An smiled faintly and said.
"To be honest, when Suo Dun used the water mirror world, I was also worried for you!" The supervisor breathed a sigh of relief and said, "However, after seeing your strength today, I can more or less relax for the next two battles. However, don't let your guard down just because you won this battle. In seven days, you will have to face the previous champion. This guy also defeated the water mirror world. You must not underestimate him. If you want information on this person … "
"No need." Lu An said. There was no arrogance in his voice or expression. He said, "Thank you for your kindness."
Upon seeing Lu An's reaction, the supervisor did not say anything else. Not long after, a staff member brought a ring and handed it to Lu An.
At this level, the wager was no longer ordinary currency. Instead, it was real materials that were placed in the ring.
"Thank you." Lu An stood up and took the ring as he spoke to the staff member. Then, he looked at the supervisor and said, "I still have something to do. Goodbye."
"Alright, I won't see you out," the supervisor said.
Lu An did not leave immediately. Instead, he left the supervisor and the staff member in the room. Upon hearing Lu An's footsteps, the supervisor took a deep breath.
Suddenly, he had a feeling that perhaps … this human really had the strength to enter the Southernmost Ocean and fight in the arena!

Lu An walked out of the arena and prepared to head to the place where he had set up the Teleportation Array to leave. Just as he was moving quickly on the street, two familiar auras suddenly appeared, causing him to come to a halt.
Lu An turned and looked in the direction of the auras. He saw Si Mian and Si Yan standing on the other side of the street.
Lu An was stunned. He naturally remembered the two of them, but he had not expected to meet them here. He immediately set off and cupped his hands. "Senior Si Mian! Miss Si Yan! What are you doing here? "
"Naturally, we received news about you and came to see what you've done." Si Mian smiled. Although she had the strength to forcefully penetrate her perception into the arena's array formation, she did not do so. Her appearance here was already very sensitive. If she did something out of line, it would be a provocation to the Deep Shark Clan. The Deep Shark Clan was not to be trifled with. They were not weaker than the Flowing Moon Clan.
Of course, the Deep Shark Clan could not be compared to the clans of the Southernmost Ocean. The same was true for the Flowing Moon Clan. Therefore, in the Life and Death Union, the Flowing Moon Clan had always been very respectful to the Heaven Tiger Clan and the Flaming Lion Clan of the Southernmost Ocean.
"Sure enough, this Suo Dun is no match for you," Si Mian said with a smile. "Are you busy? If you're not, why don't you come over to my place for a chat? "
Lu An was stunned. He had not interacted with the Flowing Moon Clan for a long time. He nodded and said, "Sure!"
Soon, the three of them left Deep Shark City through Si Mian's Teleportation Array.

Flowing Moon City.
Also in Outré Prefecture, in the Flowing Moon City Lord's Mansion. As the Life and Death Union's Alliance Master, although Lu An could not interfere with the internal affairs of the various clans, he was at least a little more powerful than the various clans in name. Therefore, he was naturally treated with the highest standard of etiquette. Si Mian originally wanted her subordinates to prepare a lot of things, but Lu An felt that it was unnecessary. They were all friends, so there was no need to make things so troublesome.
After they sat down, it was inevitable that they would talk about the recent situation. Lu An roughly explained the current development of the Ice Fire Union and asked, "How's the situation in the Flowing Moon Clan now? Is there any improvement? "
In fact, the Flowing Moon Clan had been divided into four clans. Si Xing, who was on good terms with Lu An, only managed one of the clans. Later, through communication, he accepted another clan. There were still two clans that did not submit. Lu An did not know the current situation.
"It's alright," Si Mian said. "With the Sky Tiger Clan and the Flaming Lion Clan around, at least they won't dare to act presumptuously. However, it won't be easy to annex them. We'll need time. "
After saying that, Si Mian paused and said, "However, I do have a question that I'd like to ask the Alliance Master."
Lu An was slightly stunned. He said, "Senior, please ask away."
Si Mian looked at Lu An with her beautiful eyes and said, "I wonder if the Alliance Master wants to take over Flowing Moon City and become … the new City Lord?"
