章節 198: The Guests In The VIP Box

The group of friends of High ranking Heroes and Adventurers sat in a lavishly decorated VIP box overlooking the crowded arena below.

The atmosphere was relaxed, with glasses of wine and plates of food scattered around the room.

As they watched the interviews live on the holographic screen from the VIP box of the Arena, Joseph, a tall man with grey hair and a beard, commented on Ares' challenge to all the academies.

"How arrogant of him," he said, folding his arms.

Elaine, the blonde-haired woman seated next to him, chuckled and took a sip of her wine.

Before she could respond, a thin man with black hair and dark circles under his eyes leaned forward on the sofa and spoke, "It was a calculated move on his part. He knew that his academy, which has been the reigning champion for decades, would eventually be targeted by every other academy."
