The news of the Life and Death Arena spread rapidly, soon reaching the entire base. Even some Awakeners who usually stayed as far away from the arena as possible were shocked when they heard it.
"What, Life and Death Arena? The kind where two people go up, and only one comes down alive?" a female Awakener exclaimed, her eyes nearly popping out of their sockets upon hearing her companion's words.
Weren't arena battles supposed to stop at the point of victory? How could this be a fight to the death?
"Chang Fei, you must have heard wrong, right?"
"Yeah, in all these years, our Stone City Awakened Association has only had a couple of Life and Death Arenas. And all of those were years ago."
"That's right."
Chang Fei's face was exhilarated. "Surely you haven't checked the group chat yet? It's going crazy in there. The Life and Death Arena is real, 100% sure! And you won't believe who the two combatants are this time."
