Vincent felt sensed an unstoppable force aimed at his back…

His Item Sense wasn't fast enough to pick up the aura of the assailant's items so he was unable to immediately react. Nevertheless, he wasn't completely defenseless.

He has already expected that his opponent would play a trick on him so he allowed Rem to accompany him…

That's right!

Rem made her move! She hastily followed the assailant though she would probably be too late!

However, this was enough for Vincent since he only needs to survive for a few seconds.

Bam!

The cloaked man who had ambushed Vincent used a steel gauntlet to pummel Vincent's back…

Vincent was hit! Or specifically, his Legendary Nightbane Robe +10!

Chaos Night ( Active ): In exchange for 400 units of mana, the user can trap the consciousness of the target in a nightmare. ]

This robe truly deserved to be a Legendary Item.

Thanks to his other talismans, the force behind that punch were reduced by a significant amount. Even after his talismans were broken, the Crippling Force still took effect, and Vincent was just barely pushed by that attack!

"Hmm? Corrosive mana?"

Vincent realized that after getting hit, a string of mana tried to enter his body and cause internal injuries!

Thankfully, he still has his Prudence and Sagewood Ring that he had previously shown to Turhan. The two rings took effect almost immediately and cleansed his body.

Bang!

Rem finally arrived as she slammed the man's head to the ground. If not for Vincent's instructions, she would've cut off his head already.

At this point, the Arena Master had also arrived and suppressed the cloaked man.

"Who dares?!" Turhan had also appeared as he wanted to see who was courting death! Interfering in a duel witnessed by the Black Tower officials is a huge crime... Furthermore, he even plotted to kill Vincent.

The crowd was already whispering to themselves as they tried to guess the man's identity.

Many of them thought that it was Emrah who acted since he was Richard's brother-in-law. However, they know that he doesn't use the gauntlet as a weapon so many of them dismissed this thought.

Nevertheless, the face of the man was finally revealed. He was already unconscious after Rem smashed his face on the ground. He has a broken nose and swollen forehead but many of them still recognized him… He was Xander, the Eight Sword of the Zemin Clan and one of the strongest Arch Knight of the family!

However, they couldn't understand why he would actually act against Vincent. Furthermore, it was also quite embarrassing that he didn't even succeed in hurting him! He was already facing Vincent's back and he still failed in the end.

Seeing that Vincent was still fine after being 'pushed' by Xander's punch, Turhan heaved a sigh of relief…

"Patriarch Leon, I would like to hear an explanation…" Turhan said as he glanced at one of the VIP rooms above.

The arena then became silent after hearing Turhan's words. It took a while before a familiar deep and powerful voice replied.

"It was his own actions… You can ask him later why he did that and punish him accordingly."

Within the VIP room, his expression was gloomy.

Patriarch Leon had no choice. They haven't arrived and established their clan in their new territory yet. For now, he can only give Turhan the authority to determine Xander's fate.

He then hatefully looked at his son, Tyrell, who had influenced Xander to act against Vincent.

"F-father… Can't we just take Sir Xander and tell him that we will be the ones punishing him? After all, he's from our clan. The Black Tower shouldn't have the right to punish him, right?"

"Hmph… So you're relying on that trick all along? Useless!" Leon gritted his teeth as he couldn't be bothered to explain their current position.

If they were still within the Zemin Clan Territory, Xander wouldn't be punished and would only be scolded by him. However, the situation is different now. They needed Turhan's help to have a better conditions in their new territory. They can't be losing his favor now!

Leon was having a headache… It seems that he needed to reeducate his son… and even his daughter!

Vincent struck Xander's gauntlet as it was shattered into many pieces…

With his 530 crush attribute, only Epic-Rank and above items can possibly resist the crushing might of his cane.

After all, only Epic Items and above have the durability that reaches 500 points and above.

"Sir Arena Master, Sir Turhan, my duel wasn't finished yet. Can you bring this man away?"

Vincent said calmly after shattering the gauntlet.

The two were surprised at this but Rem only nodded as she left the duel stage silently.

However, before the two can even reply, Richard already acted!

Since Vincent's Soul Pressure disappeared, Richard was able to regain control of his body and pulled out a poisonous dart from his sleeve!

He decided not to use any form of Mana Arts since that would surely be sensed by Vincent and he might be able to dodge his attack.

This is why he just silently moved without using any form of mana!

'Die for me!' Richard was excited. He already realized that Vincent was relying on his mana fluctuations to detect his presence. Now that he didn't use any and acted only using his physical strength, there was no way he could predict his movement!

Whom~

As he was celebrating in his mind, he felt something shake his mind as he found himself in darkness.

It took him a few seconds before he was able to adjust his eyes and see his surroundings…

He immediately looked around only to realize that he was trapped in a spiderweb!

"N-no! What's going on?!" Richard was panicking as he tried to get himself off the web! However, he was completely glued to the web and he can't even use his Mana!

"Vincent! Where did you bring me?! My sister will kill you!" Richard shouted in despair… He somehow felt what was about to happen.

Soon, just like what he guessed in his heart, eight red eyes belonging to a huge spider came for him.
