In the crowd, Lily Dan shook her head in astonishment: “I didn't expect to run into him here. Will can take revenge this time.”

  “Do you know each other?” West's expression changed, and he asked.

  “We met outside the Free Capital a month ago.” Lily Dan chuckled and told the whole story of the conflict: “Will was manipulating the flying beast to tease him. We thought it was over, but who knew he caught up. Surprisingly, Will was no match for him at all.”

  He had actually suppressed “Thunder War Eagle”. west was shocked. He knew Will's abilities. His eyes lingered on the pile of plates for a while: “He wasn't your opponent in the flying beast competition. Didn't you look for him afterwards?”

  Everyone knew that no matter how good one's skills in Manipulate the flying beast were, it didn't necessarily mean that the rider's overall strength was strong.

  “Of course we did. Cousin, you don't know. Will was so angry at that time. He's still a second-order fighter after all.” Lily Dan laughed: “But as soon as he landed, this guy disappeared. None of the people around knew his background. We couldn't find him at all. Will went crazy looking for him in the Free Capital for several days and even offered a reward at the Mercenary Guild, but it was all in vain. I think Will might propose a duel later.”

  She didn't have a good impression of either of them, so she was happy to watch the fun.

  “A duel?” West looked at her indifferently: “Will may not necessarily win.”

  “How could that be? Will is a second-order fighter.”

  Pointing at Chen Yue's dining table a few times in the air, West asked rhetorically: “Could someone who can eat so much be an ordinary person?”

  Lily Dan opened her mouth but said nothing. If it was just an ordinary big appetite, that would be understandable, but the amount of food on that table was enough for ten people...

  Was this guy even human?

  For some reason, a chill rose in her heart

  ....

  “Coward! This time you can't escape, can you? You thought you could avoid it by leaving the Free Capital immediately? I'll definitely pay you back for the humiliation that day.” Will shouted furiously. In his opinion, the reason he couldn't find Chen Yue was that Chen Yue had left the Free Capital immediately after the competition. Little did he know that after getting off the flying beast, Chen Yue had immediately gone to the Apostle Association and flown away from the Free Capital with Venia the next day, leaving him no chance at all.

  The Mercenary Guild's influence couldn't reach the Apostle Association, so no one knew Chen Yue's whereabouts. They could only assume that Chen Yue had left the Free Capital.

  “Coward?” The corners of Chen Yue's mouth curved up, and he looked at Will with a half-smile.

  His contemptuous expression was like pouring oil on the fire, immediately reminding Will of his miserable and dejected look that day. It seemed that this description was more suitable for him.

  Anger surged out like a volcanic eruption.

  “A duel! I want to have a duel with you.” Will shouted crazily, pointing at Chen Yue with his finger: “I, second-order fighter Will, hereby challenge you to a duel.”

  “A duel? Hilarious. What do you want to compete in? Flying beast competition?” Chen Yue looked at him disdainfully.

  Will immediately froze when he heard this. Chen Yue's words immediately reminded him of that dreamlike strike that exceeded the limit. A chill rose in his heart. No matter how proud he was, he knew that he couldn't perform that kind of skill and didn't have the ability to resist it. Under the spiral 绞杀，the only thing he could do was tremble like a naked little girl.

  However, he had lost in the flying beast competition, and the dispute had also started from this. Logically, if he wanted to take revenge, it could only be in this aspect. Otherwise, even if he won, he would be laughed at.

  Thinking of this, his momentum immediately dropped by more than half.

  “Will, don't fall for his trick.” His companion shouted. This was undoubtedly an implicit admission that Will was inferior in skills. The people around who didn't know the situation all showed shocked expressions. When they saw that Will's face was flushed red but surprisingly didn't refute, they immediately understood that it was the truth.

  Shocked.

  You should know that the reputation of “Thunder War Eagle” was quite big. There were quite a few people who could defeat him, but there were very few who could make him lose his fighting spirit like this. All of them were well-known figures in the Free Capital.

  Could it be that this unknown young man was actually a hidden master?

  As a very popular sport, top flying beast riders had a rather high status. They were not inferior even when compared with ordinary apostles. No one would look down on them. The people looking at Chen Yue were all filled with disbelief.

  Even the two apostles who had been talking big were also looking at Chen Yue in surprise.

  “Will, just compete. We believe you can definitely win.” That apostle named Kina shouted, eager for more trouble. Judging from his excited expression, it could be seen that he might not really have confidence in Will. He just wanted to see Chen Yue's flying beast skills.

  As soon as he said this, quite a number of people in the dining room responded. Everyone was looking at Will expectantly, hoping that he would agree.

  Chen Yue's face darkened slightly. This atmosphere made him very uncomfortable.

  Will felt like he was in a dilemma. Now he regretted it deeply. Why had he been so impulsive?

  “I... No, not that. Since it's a duel, of course we should use our real strength.” Shaking his hand a bit flusteredly, Will said with a lack of confidence.

  If it was really a flying beast competition, it wouldn't be revenge but pure self-torture. Will knew this very well, which showed how heavy the shadow Chen Yue had left in his heart was.

  Chen Yue said indifferently: “I don't think there's any need for a duel.”

  After saying that, Chen Yue got up leisurely and walked towards the door.

  Will breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to take revenge anymore. He just hoped to end this embarrassing situation as soon as possible. The way people were looking at him made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

  Before he had walked a few steps, a frivolous voice suddenly came over.

  “Hey, kid, don't leave. It won't cost you a piece of flesh to compete, hehe. Are you afraid there's no prize? I'll offer 500 gold coins. As long as you satisfy us, the money will be yours.” It was that foul-mouthed Kina who was speaking. He tossed a bag of gold coins playfully: “What are you hesitating for? 500 gold coins are enough for you to earn for several years.”

  West frowned slightly, feeling a bit displeased. This Kina was really too indiscreet.

  If this person was really a top flying beast rider, he might not be someone that Kina, a mere first-order apostle, could easily afford to offend.

  However, when he glanced at Chen Yue, an idea came to his mind: This person might not necessarily be a top rider either. Thinking of this, he ultimately didn't say anything to stop it.

  500 gold coins. Many people showed greedy expressions. This amount of money was a huge temptation even for them. Even for top flying beast riders, winning an important competition would only bring in this amount of money. Moreover, Chen Yue's identity as a top rider hadn't been verified.

  Whether it was for the gold coins or because of Kina's identity as an apostle, it was believed that not many people would be willing to refuse. Although his attitude wasn't respectful, Chen Yue might not necessarily be one of those top riders after all. Thinking of this, almost everyone thought that Chen Yue would accept. And Will's face turned pale. He was probably the only one who didn't want to see this scene.

  However, Chen Yue's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. It was as if he hadn't heard Kina's words, just like a dog barking by the roadside that few people would pay attention to. He still walked towards the door at a leisurely pace.

  “Stop!” Kina's face darkened. The astonished gazes of the people around made him extremely embarrassed. He had always been successful in the past and had never encountered such a situation. A trace of murderous intent rose in his heart. Looking at Chen Yue's back, he said coldly: “Didn't you hear what I said?”

  Two of their companions immediately walked out and blocked Chen Yue's way.

  Even the best flying beast rider didn't necessarily mean that their own strength was strong. That's why Will dared to seek revenge on Chen Yue after being completely defeated in the flying beast competition. Similarly, these two people didn't show a look of facing a formidable enemy either. They just stood there casually.

  “How rude! Hmph, loser.” As soon as Kina said this, the atmosphere in the hall seemed to freeze. Everyone's eyes were focused on that slightly thin young man.

  Even West and the others, affected by this strange atmosphere, became a bit uneasy.

  “It's just having a meal. What a hassle.” Chen Yue put his hand on his forehead, gently rubbed his temple with his thumb, and said casually, as if his emotions hadn't been affected at all and there was no fluctuation.

  However, in the next moment, Chen Yue suddenly turned around, stared at Kina, and his tone turned cold. An extremely cold murderous intent spread out:

  “Are you tired of living?”

  ...
