Before Oden had become a King of Fighters, people mocked him, and the royalty despised him. However, after he became a King of Fighters, everything changed.
That was a King of Fighters’ charm!
It was also the most direct reflection of how the strong were the most revered in Heaven’s Vault Continent!
“As everyone knows, our newly-promoted King of Fighters has royal blood in him. The noble and refined Fire Dragon blood flows within him. This is also the reason why King of Fighters Oden possesses superbly strong battle capabilities!”
Heidi Glenna’s voice was loud and clear. She said, “These few years, ever since he joined Flame Arena, Oden has pressed on with a crushing force, won every single battle he was in, and successfully stood out from the rest to take the throne of the King of Fighters in the end!
“This is Oden’s victory!
“And also the royal bloodline’s victory!
“Let us wish for Oden’s happiness, and hope that he can continue his winning streak in the King of Fighters battle coming up! And hope that he can create another miracle and another legend!”
“Oden!”
“Oden!”
“Oden!”
...
“As for the other contestant tonight, I’m sure everyone is already very familiar with who he is. He once held the King of Fighters position for three successive terms, won the King of Fighters battles thrice in a row, and even achieved brilliant results in the King of Fighters battle organized by the empire this year!
“He is our Giant Spiritual God—Nicolas Austin!”

He was more than four meters tall, and was a bronze color throughout!
The muscles all over his body intertwined and bulged like rocks!
His eyes were bright and piercing, and he held a mace in his hand!
He wore a suit of golden armor and had a horned Viking helmet on his head!
He was the King of Fighters that had held the title for three terms straight—Nicolas Austin, the Giant Spiritual God!
“All of our guests should be aware that our Giant Spiritual God has Ancient Giant blood in him. He has herculean strength and was once the winner of the King of Fighters title for three years straight. He even fought with all his might against powerful opponents in the Emperor of Fighters battle organized by the empire this year, and achieved an impressive third place!”
The host’s voice overflowed with passion and resounded throughout the sky above the ring. She said, “Today, we shall look forward to seeing whether Nicolas can overcome his opponent to achieve victory, and continue his King of Fighters legend!”
“Giant Spiritual God!!!”
“Giant Spiritual God!!!”
“Giant Spiritual God!!!”
As though deafening claps of thunder, even more fanatical cheers erupted with a boom and engulfed the Flaming Ring of Life And Death. The reverberations made the audience’s eardrums hurt, causing their ears to hum and making them dizzy!
As the winner of three King of Fighters terms, Nicolas the Giant Spiritual God enjoyed immense popularity. It was something that the newly-promoted King of Fighters Oden couldn’t compare with, despite having royalty blood in him!
“And now, let us hand the ring over to the two Kings of Fighters!”
The host flapped her snowy white wings and slowly left the ring. Then, Oden and Nicolas, who were standing on the small raised platforms, moved simultaneously!
With a flap of his wings, Oden turned into a beam of fiery red light and arrived in the ring in an instant. He moved swiftly and as quick as lightning, arousing scream after scream from the audience!
Roar!!!
Nicolas let out a furious roar and stepped onto the platform with one foot. With a dull and thunderous boom, the platform cracked and fell apart. Nicolas’ big and tall form leaped high into the air and landed on the ring!
“Victory for Oden!!!”
“Victory for the Giant Spiritual God!!!”
In this instant, the cheers and screams in the arena reached their pinnacle. People screamed and shouted excitedly as though they had gone mad!
Madness! Truly madness! Looks like fervent fans exist in every world. Eh? That’s...
Meng Lei noticed light balls dropping one after another from the crazed, fervent fans. Judging from the color, these light balls were mostly spirit light balls.
Could it be that people easily drop spirit light balls when they are excited?
Meng Lei was secretly astonished. However, he didn’t stay idle. He turned and left the fighters’ viewing gallery, went down the safety passage, and quietly came to the stands.
Fighters were the arena’s internal staff. Hence, apart from being unable to enter the VIP rooms, they could freely enter any area in the arena.
“Ding! Assimilation successful. Host’s Spirit +5!”
“Ding! Assimilation successful. Host’s Spirit +7!”
Meng Lei collected dropped light balls without a moment’s pause as he walked about the stands.
Hehe, how marvelous! I was really right to come to the arena!
Whoosh!
Just as Meng Lei collected his light balls, the cheers throughout the arena came to a sudden stop, as though someone had pressed the pause button. Meng Lei lifted his head and took a look. As it turned out, the battle between the Kings of Fighters had begun!
Magic shields rose into the air. The two Kings of Fighters gazed at each other from afar, sparks flying everywhere!
“Nicolas, I’m going to end your path of glory!”
Oden flapped his wings, his form suspended in mid-air. His voice was cold and emotionless like a blade, and there was an icy glint in his eyes.
“Shamelessly boastful little fellow, I hope your fists are half as tough as your mouth!” scoffed Nicolas as he sneered at him, his countenance full of disdain.
“Die!!!”
With a roar, Oden swooped down and struck out with his fist!
“Good job coming here!”
Boom!
As though meteors crashing into Earth, Oden and Nicolas clashed against each other forcefully. Within the booming thunderclap-like sounds of
