Chapter 908: Chapter 903: I Always Keep My Word

The Silver Medal Gladiators were not friendly towards each other.

These Silver Medal Gladiators weren’t friendly, even among themselves.

Except for one simple-minded fellow.

— "Skullbreaker" Monsaka, who seemed a bit confused, still patted Bai Pu’s shoulder with his big hand, continuously praising Bai Pu’s strong build and thanking Bai Pu for saving his life today.

Why were the Silver Medal Gladiators unfriendly to each other?

Bai Pu squinted his eyes and thought for a few seconds, then understood.

He quietly watched "Blood Boiling" Karamango’s performance.

After Karamango’s speech, the gladiators finally got to eat the gifted roasted meat, and the Silver Medal Gladiators drank fine wine.

After having their fill, they each returned to their dormitories to rest.

However, Bai Pu was called over by Karamango. Accompanying him were several other Silver Medal Gladiators.

...

"Welcome Gangxin Dior to the Silver family."

Karamango sat at the head seat, with the other gladiators lined up on both sides.

Karamango laughed and said, "What just happened outside doesn’t count. This is the real welcome party. Gangxin, there is some news these Silver Medal Gladiators already know, but you may not be aware of yet."

Bai Pu had already guessed that what Karamango was going to say must be related to the New Continent. But he said nothing, just listened quietly.

Sure enough, Karamango continued:

"Upon arriving at the New Continent, every Silver Medal Gladiator can manage a team of laborers to handle any security issues in the mining area. Based on the number of Demon Crystals you turn in, you can accumulate experience (reputation)!

"Every Silver Medal Gladiator here is my capable subordinate. Some came early, others just arrived. However, I will treat everyone equally, without partiality! I promise here: the first Silver Medal Gladiator to turn in ten thousand Demon Crystals, I will recommend to the headquarters to promote him to Gold Medal Gladiator and become a partner of the Red Blood Arena!"

Bai Pu understood at heart.

No wonder, during the day, all the Silver Medal Gladiators admired him.

By night, their attitude had significantly turned unfriendly.

Because these senior Silver Medal Gladiators and Bai Pu, the newly promoted Silver Medal Gladiator, are now starting their experience accumulation on the New Continent from the same starting line!

Originally, these Silver Medal Gladiators thought their seniority and accumulated merits meant Bai Pu posed no threat to their status.

But now, standing at the same starting line, Bai Pu immediately became the hot candidate for "Gold Medal Gladiator"!

Moreover, the senior Silver Medalists felt it was unfair.

Why did Bai Pu erase their seniority (reputation) advantage as soon as he arrived?

Bai Pu looked at Karamango calmly.

He knew this was also Karamango’s way of managing subordinates.

— He feared that after arriving at the New Continent, the group of Silver Medal Gladiators would unite against him!

A harmonious team of subordinates was not what Karamango wanted to see; it would risk his authority being undermined!

"However... I can also infer your level of strength, Karamango. Absolutely not a Lord, extremely unlikely to be an Enhanced Leader. More than 90% probability, you are a Level 13 Leader!"

Bai Pu silently recited in his heart.

The reason for accurately giving the "Level 13 Leader" definition was based on Karamango’s apparent fear of these Enhanced Elite level Silver Medal Gladiators.

If Karamango was an Enhanced Leader or even a Lord, he wouldn’t worry about these Enhanced Elites daring to unite against him. That is the confidence of a strong one.

And Bai Pu’s equipment skill [Strong Enemy Detection] could sense the Level 12 Naga Leader Volash’s strength but could not detect Karamango’s power, which indicated Karamango’s level was higher than the Naga Leader Volash.

Level 13 or higher...

Considering the Dark Tide as an Ascension Plane, it should count as a "Low-level Plane" among Evolver Planes. Native powers wouldn’t exceed Level 13, which is the level of Low-level Evolvers.

That’s why Bai Pu defined Karamango as a "Level 13 Leader."

The original question mark level BOSS now has a somewhat definite power level, and Bai Pu’s mind became even more active, giving rise to some unauthorized thoughts he shouldn’t have had initially.

After all the other silver medals left, Bai Pu deliberately stayed behind.

"Lord Karamango, there’s something I wonder if you remember." Bai Pu spoke softly.

"Hmm? Let’s hear it."

Bai Pu said calmly, "You mentioned that if I protected the Red Blood Arena’s property during today’s gladiatorial match, reducing your losses... I could make a reasonable wish to you."

Karamango said in surprise, "Gangxin, don’t you think being promoted to Silver Medal Gladiator fulfilled your wish?"

"Promotion to Silver Medal is the honor I deserve. I seized the four-sided battle banner, earned you 16,000 silver coins in cheering money, and won you 30,000 silver coins in the gladiatorial match victory prize!"

Bai Pu looked directly at Karamango, "I also protected the arena’s property for you. Not a single one of your gladiators died during the battle. You have not yet given me a reward for this one thing."

With the evidence of the task triggered by the Spirit Realm Will, Karamango didn’t deny it.

He stared at Bai Pu with a changing expression and slowly said, "I always keep my word. Fine! Gangxin, state your request... But don’t push it too far; you’ve got enough today."

"I hope to receive guidance on your combat skills." Bai Pu said.

In fact, Bai Pu had his eyes on Karamango’s "Mystical Arts" insights.

According to Bai Pu’s conjecture, with his current "friend" reputation with Karamango and the perfect completion of the B-level Silver side mission, Karamango shouldn’t be stingy in sharing his combat insights that don’t involve "money."

However, this time Bai Pu miscalculated.

"My combat skills?"

Karamango laughed heartily, raising his skinny arm, "Gangxin, I haven’t stepped into the gladiatorial arena for twenty years. Do I still look like a Gold Medal Gladiator now?

"How about this! Under suitable circumstances, I’ll introduce you to a true expert. How much you can learn from him depends on your ability."

Bai Pu received a hint.

[B-level Silver Side Mission: Protect the arena’s property, has been submitted.]

[Task reward: "Blood Boiling" Karamango’s verbal promise, he will introduce you to a true expert for guidance. (Completed)]

Hard, the fists are hard.

Bai Pu truly didn’t expect that with a task issued by the Spirit Realm Will, there would be a day of being denied by the natives.

However, when the Silver side mission triggered back then, Bai Pu noticed the task reward was marked as "unknown." At the time, Bai Pu understood it meant the Awakening needed to strive for the unknown task reward himself.

Now it seems, Karamango was holding onto a mindset of denial back then!
