Hearing Fane's words, the skinny man made no arguments and merely nodded. After that, he walked toward the outer region with the small-nosed

man.

Looking at the two of them slowly leaving, Fane had various emotions in his eyes.

Rudy turned to look at Fane meaningfully. "Fane, why were you so polite? I thought you'd teach them a lesson, but you gave them gold."

Fane smiled and patted Rudy's shoulder. "There's no reason to fight if the other side has no intentions of doing anything to you. If I use strength in every situation, I'd be no different from the guys you hate. I only attacked that guy when we entered the inner region because he had been rude. I would've treated him politely if he wasn't like that."

Rudy nodded. That was how the powerful ones should act, not like those second-grade-world warriors who treated warriors from third-grade worlds like trash.

As they advanced, more corpses were spotted on the ground. Fane was beginning to feel numb looking at them.

The more they advanced, the worse the situation was. After they walked for another 10 kilometers, they started to see clashes of energy of various colors constantly clashing in the distance. They could even hear the roars of wild beasts.

The massive beasts constantly unleashed their attacks. The humans were not falling behind either, frantically unleashing their own. Seeing this, Rudy was shocked, even though he already expected it.

He pursed his lips, clutching his chest as he said, "What pressure! Even so far away, I can still feel the surrounding air tainted by the crazy amounts of energy. It feels like even the atmosphere is explosive and full of pressure!"

Fane nodded, his expression turning more serious.

Rudy gulped and said carefully, "Fane, I think we should be more careful. This is different from all the

other times. The battle is several times more dangerous than the last one. None of these warriors or beasts are weak at all! If we join it, the chances of us getting out..."

Rudy stopped himself. He felt like he had said similar things so many times before, and each time, Fane had easily dealt with the problem Fane had never encounteredProperty © .

anything he could not handle Rudy felt like he was just being a worrywart.

However, the moment he said that, Fane turned and said, "You're right, we can't participate in this straightforwardly. Battles of this level are like a tidal wave, and it be very easy to end up trapped inside if we're not careful. Even though it probably won't cost my life, I may get injured in the process."

During the battle from before, Fane's participation had turned the tides since everyone there was not that strong.

The one ahead of them, however, was different. Even if Fane joined in, he was not confident that he would be able to determine the winner. After all, everyone who participated in this battle was incredibly strong.

Rudy looked at Fane in shock and gulped. This was the first time he heard Fane treating anything so seriously. It seemed like even Fane felt the pressure.

After all, this was a collection of the strongest warriors from second and third-grade worlds. Even Fane had to tread carefully. Rudy frowned. "Then, should we just avoid this?"

To Fane, as long as they were not in the deepest parts of the inner region, there was nowhere that would be any threat to Fane.
