Capítulo 1180: Chapter 1191: Silence Falls

Seeing the man in the gray robe being the first to step onto the stage, a chorus of sighs erupted around him.

The sighs came not only from one person, but also included the nine generals who failed to make it up, and the thousands of people around the arena.

In the sighs of everyone, there was a regret for not being able to ascend.

In their opinion, as long as they could step onto the stage, they would surely defeat Wang Yan, and perhaps with the advantage of the arena host, they might last to the end and be elevated to the rank of Grand General.

But now the opportunity was snatched away by the man in the gray robe, making it very likely that the position of Grand Marshal is his.

Everyone recognized this man in the gray robe. A few days ago, in the chaos of the arena battles, he relied on his terrifying speed to repeatedly defeat opponents, ultimately earning the rank of General.

Hearing the sighs around him, the man in the gray robe felt somewhat proud and said to Wang Yan, “The arena host has the right to choose. You can decide the content of our final battle.”

Having said this, the man in the gray robe also felt a bit uneasy in his heart. His greatest strength was speed, his power was average, and he had few magical treasures.

If Wang Yan chose to battle with magical treasures, he estimated his chances of winning were slim. If it was a test of strength, there might still be hope. If it was a test of speed, then victory was assured.

But then the man in the gray robe shook his head, thinking that Wang Yan must have seen his terrifying speed as he was the first to step onto the stage.

Only a fool would choose to compete in speed.

But just at that moment, Wang Yan suddenly said, “Then let’s compete in speed.”

Upon hearing these words, the man in the gray robe suddenly felt as if he had won a jackpot, raising his head abruptly, his eyes gleaming, even his voice trembled a little: “Are you serious?”

Wang Yan nodded.

Seeing this, a commotion erupted around the arena, with some people already regretting and beginning to slap their foreheads.

It seemed that this arena host not only acted frivolously but also had some holes in his brain.

This is truly a case of showing off before a master, foolishly comparing oneself with the opponent’s strength.

At this, people regretted even more for not stepping onto the stage.

The seven Elders and former students of Mozi Academy found it amusing to see everyone so dismissive of Wang Yan while also anxiously waiting to see how Wang Yan would astonish them.

With Wang Yan’s confirmation, the man in the gray robe was overjoyed and said, “Well then, I’ll begin. Pay attention.”

As he spoke, the man in the gray robe suddenly flickered, starting to circle around Wang Yan.

Almost as soon as he began running, a trail of afterimages formed behind the man in the gray robe, making it seem as if there were seven or eight of him.

But then, the speed of the man in the gray robe increased, and the number of afterimages behind him grew.

Later on, dozens of gray-robed figures appeared around Wang Yan, almost encircling him entirely.

The dozens of gray-robed figures whirled around Wang Yan, making it impossible to discern which was the true form or an illusion.

Seeing this, everyone present nodded approvingly.

Such swift speed was truly rare.

Only Ma Jun, atop the Flame Peak, shook his head, thinking: Back when my brother was still the Demon Emperor, he could create afterimages while running. Now you, having reached the Demon Saint level, only achieved that level; it’s completely what my brother left behind. Your speed isn’t even as good as mine, so how could it compare with my brother?

As Ma Jun pondered, the dozens of gray-robed figures exclaimed, “Hahaha, arena host, to be honest, my Demon Pattern is a cheetah. Competing with me in speed is simply courting death.”

These words sounded as if they were uttered simultaneously by dozens of gray-robed figures, spreading out from all directions.

Looking back at Wang Yan, he just stood there in the arena, as if scared stiff by the dozens of gray-robed figures, not moving at all.

The man in the gray robe laughed, “Forget it, I won’t scare you further. I’ll toss you off the stage and make you the shortest-reigning arena host ever.”

With these words, the dozens of gray-robed figures simultaneously charged inward, each raising a hand, with dozens of hands reaching for Wang Yan.

Yet Wang Yan still did not move, and those dozens of hands actually grabbed hold of him.

The man in the gray robe didn’t expect to win so effortlessly and laughed, “I’ve won.”

Saying this, the dozens of gray-robed figures simultaneously raised their hands, throwing Wang Yan off the stage.

Everyone around shook their heads; this arena battle was just too easy.

They saw the man in the gray robe catch Wang Yan and throw him towards the edge of the stage, seemingly about to fall off.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Wang Yan, waiting for the moment he would hit the ground.

But just as the man in the gray robe grabbed Wang Yan to throw him, Wang Yan’s figure suddenly turned illusory and then disappeared a moment later.

“An illusion!” the man in the gray robe exclaimed in shock, immediately halting, and the dozens of figures on the arena slowly vanished, leaving only one gray-robed man.

At this point, how could the man in the gray robe not understand?

He had only grasped an illusion of Wang Yan, due to Wang Yan’s speed being so fast that he felt he had grabbed the real person, but in reality, it was only a shadow.

In other words, Wang Yan’s speed was much faster than his own.

Realizing this outcome, the man in the gray robe was astonished, quickly looking around.

He found Wang Yan standing behind him, looking at him casually.

Hurriedly turning around to face Wang Yan directly, the man in the gray robe’s heart was filled with fear, turning too swiftly, tripping over his own feet, nearly falling to the ground.

In such a golden opportunity, Wang Yan just looked on calmly, not attacking.

The man in the gray robe steadied himself immediately, nervously watching Wang Yan.

Wang Yan said calmly, “Don’t rush, are you steady? Now it’s my turn to attack.”

Taking a deep breath, the man in the gray robe nodded towards Wang Yan.

Wang Yan smiled lightly, saying, “Then step down.”

But, having said that, Wang Yan still stood there, not attacking.

The man in the gray robe was taken aback, feeling puzzled.

However, just at that moment, he suddenly felt someone grab the collar at the back of his neck, his body was lifted into the air, and then he was thrown off the arena.

While in mid-air, he saw clearly that the one who grabbed him was Wang Yan.

Even though Wang Yan had been standing right before him, when did he get behind him?

As the man in the gray robe pondered in confusion, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the Wang Yan who had been talking gradually disappear.

Indeed, Wang Yan was incredibly fast.

The figure before him wasn’t the real one; the real Wang Yan had long been behind him.

“Thunk,” the man in the gray robe hit the ground, and the entire arena was suddenly silent.
