The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4922

Chapter 4922 The Ways Of The World
At that moment, atop the stage, two individuals were locked in intense combat, battered and bruised with bloodied heads. Yet, astonishingly, neither of them resorted to using their cultivation techniques.

On this stage, if one were to resort to other tactics, they would be scorned.

Even if one was bleeding profusely from a head injury, they could not resort to any means to heal themselves, let alone launch an attack on the other party.

It was all about strength, endurance, and the resilience of the physical body.

“This indeed is a good way to make money...”

Jared watched the two individuals battling on the stage and suddenly, an idea struck him.

He might not have the same level of skill or experience as these individuals, but when it came to sheer physical strength, he was unmatched.

Upon seeing that Jared was contemplating making money by fighting on the stage, the middle-aged man said, “You've got to be kidding me. A good way to make money, you say? This could be life-threatening. If you were to fall from this hundred-meter-high stage without using any cultivation techniques, would you be able to survive the impact?”

“What? You can't use cultivation techniques even when you fall off the stage?”

Jared was somewhat speechless. If one were to jump off a stage a hundred meters high with just their bare body, they would have to be out of their mind.

Even if one was physically strong, taking a leap from a hundred-meter high stage would probably reduce them to a pulp.

“Of course there is. But in most cases, these victories are orchestrated behind the scenes. Those who manage to win all ten matches often do so under secret arrangements, earning their way into the city lord mansion. Nowadays, people are well aware of how things work, so they simply come to enjoy the spectacle. From what I've heard, in thousands of years, only three individuals have genuinely endured all ten matches on their own without relying on tricks. You should understand that without cultivation techniques, the fight is purely about physical strength.”

Jared couldn't help but chuckle at the revelation. Even in the celestial realm, such things still mattered, just like in the mundane world where bids were solicited, accompanied by a handful of predetermined outcomes.

In the end, the winner was always decided in advance, which made Jared wonder if there was even a real purpose to such a competition.

“If that's the case, what's the point of this competition?” Reidan scoffed.

“You don't get it. It's about the ways of the world. Do you see those two people up on the stage? They may seem to be battling fiercely, but it's all for show. See that man in the luxurious outfit? That's Quinlan Laberge, the son of the Laberge family from Rhino City. This time, he's undoubtedly the one who will emerge victorious. Everyone knows that only preselected individuals are allowed on the stage. No one else would dare to step up. We must preserve the Laberge family's reputation; otherwise, surviving in Rhino City will be impossible,” the middle-aged man explained, seemingly eager to flaunt his extensive knowledge to Jared and the others.
