"Second tier!"
The fat man held up his finger:
"For you, the second tier should be easy. I've heard people around here talk about your heroic deeds, and they all speculate that you should be at the third tier."
Luo Xiu smiled and shook his head:
"They overestimated me."
"However, I accept your invitation, since I'm also quite interested in trying my hand at fighting monsters."
"OK!!!"
The fat man exclaimed excitedly:
"Please wait a moment, I'll go prepare the ticket sales now. Someone will come to pick you up shortly. The arena should start around 8 PM tonight!"
The fat man walked away.
Nika's face turned pale:
“Mr. White, you shouldn’t have agreed to their offer.”
“Although you can kill second-tier demon bats, Mr. White, the arena is different. I’ve heard from others that they use some kind of method to raise demons that are much stronger than normal demon bats.”
"Their second-tier magical bats are almost at the third-tier level! Third-tier magical creatures are far stronger than individual third-tier humans!"
Luo Xiu smiled and said:
"Thank you for your concern, Nika, but didn't he just say he could guarantee I wouldn't die?"
"Although I won't die, it's practically the same as being dead."
Nika began to speak:
"No one who leaves the arena unscathed."
"and……"
Nika looked somewhat frightened.
“They’ll open a huge betting pool, so they definitely won’t let you win, Mr. White.”
“Mr. White, you agreed to their terms. According to the Canril Convention, if you run away now, you will be hunted down by the entire Canril.”
"How about... Mr. White, you ask that vice-principal of the Knights to plead for you? She seems to have a special relationship with you."
Luo Xiu comforted him:
“Yes, Nika, Miler and I get along well, so there shouldn’t be any problems. If I’m in danger, I’ll ask Miler for help.”
"Don't worry, Nika, thank you. By the way, you just mentioned the opening odds... what's the maximum bet?"
Chapter 84: Author's Note on Launching the Book and Some Words I'd Like to Say
First of all, thank you to every reader who enjoys this book. Whether you have subscribed to subsequent chapters or not, I sincerely wish you all happiness every day.
With everyone's help, I finally made it to Sanjiang tomorrow, although I lost a lot of progress due to the map change, so it was a bit of a disaster.
But I'm already very satisfied.
The fact that we've come this far without a single chapter recommendation is entirely thanks to the support of all our readers.
I also want to thank my editor, Zhenguan Laoda.
The initial draft of this manuscript was rejected by various sources, but he was the only one who approved it.
Personally, I have nothing to say about this book except two words: satisfied.
Although there are still many shortcomings, most readers have been very tolerant.
The original intention of this book was to create an adventure story about leveling up and fighting monsters. However, I thought that the male protagonist should not be the only one leveling up and fighting monsters. With such an unbearable world setting, it would be quite difficult for him to do it alone.
In reality, I'm all alone; it's a bit too pitiful that I'm still alone while writing novels.
Let's find someone to go with.
Then, with a bang, Leila appeared.
However, I don't want to write a female character who is a burden, relying on the various troubles she encounters to highlight the male protagonist's reliability. That's definitely not an acceptable approach for me.
So Leila hasn't caused the male protagonist any trouble from the beginning until now; on the contrary, she's been a great help.
Although Leila's screen time has decreased, it's hard to say what will happen next.
Many readers said at the beginning that Leila's actions were too obviously gratuitous, which is true to some extent. But I think that writing a novel is really about writing down things that we dare not even think about in reality, so I have never changed it.
The idea of winning a girl's heart with a thin meat pie is something that probably only happens in books.
The protagonist is definitely not perfect.
There are a few times when he might be asking for trouble.
But I think that deliberately causing a little trouble when you can ensure your own safety is more humane; it's just a little selfish of mine.
I've had a really tough time these past month or so.
The experiments didn't go well, and I couldn't finish writing the paper.
It seems a bit contradictory for a science and engineering student to write online novels.
But I never thought of giving up on this book.
I often think that this book might be the last one I ever write, or it might be the best one of all my future books.
So no matter how difficult it is, I insist on taking some time every day to write the book and the outline.
Every comment from everyone is encouraging to me.
Then, today came.
Coming to the shelves.
As promised, I will maintain a steady update schedule, and I will put a series of large-scale updates on the agenda once I am less busy.
Thank you all so much for your continued companionship and support. I am truly grateful.
Readers who enjoy this book are encouraged to subscribe to tomorrow's first chapter as a first-day subscription. Thank you!

Chapter 85 The Fat Man Who Changed His Face (Please Subscribe!) (7200 words today)
The news that Luo Xiu would be participating in the Monster Arena spread rapidly in the outer city thanks to the fat man's vigorous promotion.
And it immediately ignited the enthusiasm of people in the outer city.
Fat men are indeed masters of marketing and promotion.
He whetted the appetites of the people in the outer city by highlighting the rare duel between a second-tier monster and a third-tier outsider who had just won the battle.
Moreover, it is said that many people in the outer areas of the main urban area received this news and came to watch the showdown.
After all, battles between second-tier monsters are rare, let alone when the opponent is a third-tier human.
Those who participate in the Monster Arena are usually people who can't afford to enter the Alchemist's Gate. These people are usually not very strong either. The Monster Arena sends out Tier 1 monsters to fight.
A closely contested match is what makes it interesting. If the opponent is overwhelmingly superior, who would buy tickets? And how would anyone place bets?
Therefore, battles between second-tier monsters only happen once every few months.
It was only then that Luo Xiu realized that most of the people queuing under the fifth gate were not participants in the arena.
A large portion of them were gamblers who wanted to buy tickets to enter the arena and participate in the betting, while another portion were shills hired by the arena.
Only a handful of people are participants in the Monster Arena.
There's no way around it; when the Monster Arena was first released, it was indeed very popular.
However, after several subsequent matches, everyone quickly realized that this win rate was far too low.
Therefore, the popularity of the Fifth Gate has long since faded.
Only when there is a battle between second-tier monsters will it attract a group of viewers.
No wonder that fat man was so eager for Luo Xiu's participation.
"Master, I've asked around, but the arena is tight-lipped, so no news has leaked out. I've only heard that the methods used in the monster arena are related to alchemy tools."
Milair walked over, her expression somewhat unpleasant.
She had just received orders from Luo Xiu to inquire with the Knights about the methods used to make monsters stronger in the Monster Arena, but she returned empty-handed.
"I guess part of the reason is that I'm new here and don't have much authority yet."
Milair was somewhat unhappy that things hadn't gone well.
Not to mention Luo Xiu, when she was in Bandanda, she would do her best to complete the tasks assigned by her superiors. She never expected to run into a wall as soon as she arrived in Kanriel.
"It's alright, Milair."
Luo Xiu spoke:
"You should go back to the Knights first. Getting familiar with the environment is more important for you right now."
"If there's nothing urgent during this time, we don't need to meet often. I hope you can quickly adapt to the Knights here in Kanriel."
"Yes."
Milair nodded vigorously.
She took a deep breath and resolved to establish herself in the Knights of Kanriel as soon as possible.
