His whole body started to shudder, and his expression looked defeated. He had climbed too far earlier to only fall from a greater height. He had only managed to survive a few seconds before he completely lost to Dan. He did not want to admit defeat, but there was nothing he could do.

Dan sneered and said, "Do you still think you're at the same level as I am? I told you out of the kindness of my heart earlier that you're not even qualified to wipe my shoes with your meager skills, but you refused to listen. Have you accepted the truth now?"

Hearing that, Viktor was absolutely furious. His breathing became erratic as he clenched his fists tightly. He stared at Dan with hatred. Yet, a loss was a loss. He would just get laughed at if he refused to accept his defeat. However, Viktor was not someone who could just accept all those insults. After taking a few deep breaths, he said coldly, "I've definitely underestimated you, but don't think that you won't ever lose just because of that. I'm just a small part of the Chaos Continent. There are plenty of geniuses other than me. One of them will defeat you! I only lost to you once. There's still a lot of time. I'll win eventually!"

After he said that, he took out four million spirit crystals and handed them to Dan before turning around and walking out of the Projne area. He did not even glance at the eastern area, probably because he felt like he betrayed their hopes, or maybe because he felt like it was incredibly humiliating. He left without any hesitation. Fane looked at his retreating back, and could not help but sigh internally, understanding how he felt.

At that moment, Fane suddenly heard an incredibly unpleasant voice, "What? Are you scared? If you're scared, you can beg me for mercy. You can decide against this gamble."

Fane immediately understood what Dan was trying to do. He smiled and turned to face Dan, "Are you worried that I won't keep my word and run away from the bet?"

Dan merely raised an eyebrow and smiled, remaining silent. However, anyone could still understand what he was thinking. Fane raised an eyebrow and walked over to the Projne Stone in front of Dan The two of them faced each other.Têxt belongs to .

Dan raised an eyebrow in surprise. He did not expect Fane to be so bold. Fane had clearly seen how strong he was but was still standing in front of him. He could even feel how calm Fane seemed to be.

Dan's lips twitched, and he could not help but say, "You're really good at keeping up an act!"

Dan meant what he said. He felt like Fane was too good of an actor. After witnessing his skills, Fane should have been completely terrified.

He actually dared to stand in front of

Dan like that Dan did not feel like Fane was being bold, but that he was incredibly good at acting. Fane was just holding on for the sake of his dignity. Dan sneered as he looked at Fane mockingly. He wanted to rip off Fane's mask to see what Fane felt.

Dan took a deep breath before he nodded earnestly, "I was worried that you wouldn't gamble against me anymore. Compared to the four million spirit crystals, I would be even happier after I get to see your masked being ripped off!

"I hate people like you who refuse to accept reality. You're clearly terrified, but you insist on being stubborn, acting like you're not scared at all. Do you think we're all idiots that would be tricked by you here?"

Fane's lips twitched in exasperation. He had to say that Dan had a very rich imagination. At that moment, the eastern area was once again deep in discussion. The warriors from Hestia Continent were all fighting for Fane's name.
