The ring was at the bottom, surrounded by the spectator stands!
Presently, the spectator stands at the Flaming Ring of Life and Death were already filled with people. The nobles, wealthy merchants, and ladies from the capital city were talking enthusiastically about tonight’s King of Fighters battle!
The waiters in the arena walked through the stands, serving wine and water, and delivering desserts and dried fruits. The huge golden arena was full of voices and looked very lively!
Although the King of Fighters battle had not yet started, the atmosphere in the arena had already reached a frenzy!
Meng Lei appeared on the fighter viewing platform!
This was the area where fighters watched the battle. It was higher than the ordinary spectator stands but lower than the VIP boxes. It was located in the middle of the viewing platform and was meant for the arena’s staff to view the battles!
“Eh? There is someone new here?”
The fighter viewing area was already full of fighters. They were slightly surprised when they saw the unexpected arrival of Meng Lei. His young age made it even more surprising!
Meng Lei nodded casually and found a place to sit down. He did not know any of the fighters here, and there was no need to!
No one was certain who they would meet in the arena. By then, they would be fierce rivals!
It was completely unnecessary to befriend enemies. Their statuses meant that there could be no real friendship between fighters!
Meng Lei was right!
There was indeed no friendship between fighters!
Although the fighters were very familiar with each other and understood each other’s strength, level, tricks, fighting habits, etc., they were not friends with each other!
To understand each other was just to know your enemy better so that they can improve their chances of winning!
Some of the fighters’ gazes flickered as they stared at Meng Lei carefully, trying to see through all his secrets. Most of them were One-Star or Two-Star Bronze Fighters!
Meng Lei was a newcomer, and they were likely to meet him in future battles. Hence, they had to study him carefully!
Meng Lei didn’t know what these fighters were thinking. He looked into the distance as though he was paying attention to the ring. In fact, he was counting today’s gains!
Ever since he had left the academy until rushing to Flame Arena and sitting here to watch the battles, he had not had a moment of rest!
After leaving the academy, the system’s cue sound had not stopped ringing. This meant that Meng Lei had been picking non-stop, especially in Flame Arena, where the pick-up rate was higher!
Among the light balls he picked up, most of them were physical body constitution light balls, followed by gold coin light balls. Magical power light balls and spell light balls were relatively rare!
What surprised Meng Lei were the spirit light balls and the battle skill light balls. Perhaps because the King of Fighters battle was about to take place today, people were very excited, and hence these two types of light balls were surprisingly common!
In just one afternoon, Meng Lei’s spiritual power had increased by more than 100 points, and he had picked up six battle skills and a... Battle Aura Technique!
Battle Aura Technique, this is a rare item!
Meng Lei immediately went through the Battle Aura Technique named Fire Dragon Manual and was stunned!
What a stroke of luck!
After browsing the information in his mind, Meng Lei was left with a dumbfounded expression.
This item turns out to be a Battle Aura Technique of the Fire Dragon Kingdom’s royal family. Only Dragon People with fire dragon bloodlines are qualified to practice!
The royal family—the race that controlled the Fire Dragon Kingdom!
After tens of thousands of years of reproduction, the royal family of Fire Dragon Kingdom had plenty and diverse members, including pureblood Fire Dragons, mixed-blood Dragon People, and mixed-blood Dragon Beasts!
There were only a few pureblood Fire Dragons, and the most numerous were the mixed-blood dragons. The Dragon People consisted nearly 99.99% of the royal family’s population!
Although most of them had diluted bloodlines and were the sort that lazed around, they were, after all, members of the royal family!
They were all qualified to cultivate the Fire Dragon Manual.
As for other people, no matter how high their status was, how much their wealth they had, and how noble their bloodlines were, they were not qualified to cultivate the Fire Dragon Manual!
Here’s the problem!
I am not of the Fire Dragon bloodline!

As the cultivation technique used by Fire Dragon Kingdom royalty, the Fire Dragon Manual was no doubt a top-notch Battle Aura Technique. When cultivated to a level of great mastery, one could go straight up to the pinnacle of ninth-grade!
This was a priceless treasure that no amount of money could buy!
However, what frustrated Meng Lei was that he couldn’t cultivate this godly secret technique as he didn’t have any Fire Dragon blood in him!
Fire Dragon Manual can purify the Fire Dragon bloodline in the cultivator’s body, such that the dragon blood inside them becomes purer and more refined. When cultivated to a level of great mastery, they would be able to transform into a Fire Colossal Dragon!
As part of the Colossal Dragon race, not only did the Fire Colossal Dragons possess a strong and powerful body, but they were also born with the ability to manipulate flames and had extremely powerful combat abilities. They were an existence far above the rest of Heaven’s Vault Continent’s lifeforms and were a synonym for great power and fearsomeness!
If he could, of course Meng Lei would like to cultivate it, but...
Nevermind! I’ll think of something in the future!
If I really can’t come up with any
