CHAPTER 35: CHAPTER 35: ANGRY, COME AT ME ALL TOGETHER!

Logan was about to move when a tall figure jumped out from the stands. It was Mark, the principal.

"Familiar body! Armor up!"

With a loud shout, a turtle-shaped figure appeared behind Mark. His body quickly covered in a shell-shaped shield.

Pshhh... Pshhh... Pshhh...

Hot beams of light hit Mark’s shield, creating thick smoke.

"Cough... cough..."

"Cough... cough..."

As coughing sounds filled the air, the smoke slowly cleared. Mark’s clothes were burned in some places.

And the turtle shell shield that was protecting the students almost broke through by just a little. It was almost pierced by Diana’s Holy Bolt arrows.

Seeing how powerful Diana’s skill was, the audience around them were completely shocked.

"An elite-level angel almost made Master-level Principal Mark lose his cool. That’s too unbelievable!"

"Sure, Mark didn’t use his full strength because he was rushing to protect the students, but it’s still way too extreme!"

"Thank goodness the students are okay. I hope the Temple angel can calm down a bit."

Hearing the crowd’s complaints, Diana’s eyes turned even colder.

Then, a powerful pressure started to spread around her again and again.

The crowd in the stands felt a strong pressure from her, and all of them suddenly sensed a deadly danger. They quickly shut their mouths, too scared to say a word.

Diana saw this and her eyes showed a little bit of contempt. "Hmph, lowly humans!"

She then lifted the pressure and was about to go back to the arena.

But before she could turn around, a terrifying energy suddenly locked her in mid-air.

"Lowly humans? Angels aren’t so noble either!" As Logan’s voice came out, Lilith also spread her wings and appeared beside Diana.

"Infernal Lord Form!"

"Demon Lord Blade Wings!"

In a flash, Lilith used two skills one after another.

The demon wings, which were only half the size of a person before, suddenly grew many times bigger and slashed toward Diana from behind.

Lilith’s wings moved so fast that before they even hit, the sharp wind from them started to tear at Diana, causing her back to hurt badly.

In pain, Diana roared in anger: "Damn it! How dare you!"

Clang!

A loud sound of metal hitting metal was heard.

Diana also swung her wings to fight back, but she was cut down by Lilith and fell to the ground, covered in dirt and looking really messy.

This sudden change caught everyone’s attention.

Some brave spectators even secretly gave Logan a thumbs-up.

"Right when things got tough, we were saved by a succubus!"

"That means we shouldn’t judge Dark Side familiars so much!"

"You’re right, it’s all about the familiar tamer. Logan did a great job!"

"Ugh, looks like the Temple needs to take better care of their staff. What a bunch of useless angels! Pfft!"

...

Diana heard the crowd talking behind her. Her eyes turned cold again, and her gaze started to glow with holy light.

But before she could act, a power so terrifying even made her feel scared.

Everyone around felt the sunlight suddenly disappear, as if something huge was blocking it.

A huge shadow rolled over the field like a wave.

With each giant red eye lighting up, the audience froze in fear and couldn’t move.

"That’s the City Lord’s familiar! Hellweaver!"

"It’s so big! It’s almost like a castle!"

At that moment, Evelynna arrived with her elf, Siel, and stood in front of Diana.

She looked up at Hellweaver and said coldly, "Are you going to fight me?"

Nancy Priest saw Evelynna standing up to Natalia’s anger. Her heart tightened.

Just a moment ago, she had been trying to calm Natalia down.

But Diana had gone too far. She had attacked the audience twice, and that was the final straw.

As the city’s lord, hurting people right under her nose was a serious insult. She couldn’t let it go.

Natalia came down from the sky and stared coldly at Evelynna: "Go back to the arena and take care of your familiar!"

She then looked past Evelynna and fixed her eyes on Diana: "Angel, don’t act so bold in front of me. You’re not even close to being strong enough."

"To keep the Temple from saying I’m picking on the Holy Girl, I’ll let you off this time."

"But after the Arena Match is over, I’ll come back and deal with you!"

Natalia’s voice was icy, with no emotion at all. It was clear she was really angry.

Some of her close followers, who knew her well, took a step back and didn’t say a word.

After warning Evelynna and Diana, Natalia turned to leave.

At that moment, Logan and Lilith suddenly appeared in her line of sight.

She walked over to Logan and said seriously: "Stop playing around. Win this match in a real way! Do I have no face as the City Lord?"

Logan nodded seriously: "You don’t even need to say it, I was going to win anyway."

He then glanced at Diana and said: "She’ll pay for what she did."

Seeing the anger in Logan’s words, Natalia gave a satisfied nod: "Then win this match in a really impressive way!"

As she finished speaking, a long spider thread suddenly fell from the sky.

Natalia stepped along the spider thread and landed back on Hellweaver’s back.

The huge shadow that had covered the entire arena slowly started to disappear.

Only when Natalia reappeared on the main stage did the crowd finally let out a big sigh of relief.

This was the first time they had gotten a close look at the new City Lord’s power, and many of them gave her a thumbs-up, secretly praising her.

"Wow, our City Lord’s strength must be among the best in the Legend realm. How old is she anyway?"

"Shh! Don’t say nonsense. I heard her background is super mysterious. Probably has a really big connection."

"Right, right, let’s keep watching the match!"

"Ugh, I wish I hadn’t bet on the Holy Girl. What a mess. She let her familiar hurt people!"

"It’s just one bet, I can afford it. From now on, I’m supporting Logan!"

"Me too, me too! I’m supporting Logan too!"

Evelynna’s face turned dark as she noticed the change in the crowd’s opinion.

She had wanted to scold Diana, but then she remembered that she still needed Diana’s power for the next match. So she gave up the idea.

"Diana, let’s go back and continue the match," Evelynna said, grabbing Diana’s sleeve and trying to pull her away.

But at that moment, Logan suddenly stepped in front of them. "Wait!"

Evelynna looked straight into Logan’s eyes, and her gaze became sharp. "Want to fight right here?"

Logan heard that and let out a cold laugh: "I’m not like you guys. I’ll beat you in a fair way. But I need to borrow your arena for a moment."

As he finished speaking, a dark-gold light flashed behind him.

The Three-Headed Hell Wolf, Kerparos, stepped out right away.

In an instant, the fear that had just been taken away by Natalia came back again.

Everyone was shocked by Kerparos’ power, and their faces turned pale in a second.

On the stands, Principal Mark saw Kerparos and nodded silently: "Logan, show them your strength!"

On the main stage, Nancy Priest saw Kerparos and her eyes went wide: "A dark-gold familiar space? This is the legendary familiar space, isn’t it?"

She turned to Natalia and asked, "You already knew about this?"

Natalia smiled and raised her glass: "What else? Do you really think I set up this Arena Match just to find talent for the Genius Training Camp?"

"Actually, I just wanted to see how strong Logan has become," she said, then drank the wine in one go. Her voice was full of complaints: "I don’t know who he learned from, but this kid always likes to keep his cards close."

Hearing Natalia’s words, Julia’s face turned a little pale: "So, the City Lord thinks Logan will win?"

Natalia didn’t answer directly.

She just stared at Julia with a teasing but determined look.

Seeing that look, Julia sighed slightly and finally understood—everything behind this was all Natalia’s plan.

"Alright, I’ll just think of this as a way to celebrate the coming of a real talent in Twilight City. I can handle this small loss." Julia said, leaning back on the sofa and locking her eyes on Logan. "I want to see just how strong this Logan really is."

On the arena field,

Evelynna was facing the pressure from Kerparos, and her whole body was tense.

The legendary Three-Headed Hell Wolf was actually standing right in front of her, alive and real.

It turned out that the rumors the Temple knights had told back in the elite Blood Cultivation Realm were all true.

But there was one thing the knights had gotten wrong.

That was, Logan had actually made a contract with the Three-Headed Hell Wolf as his familiar.

This news was even more shocking than the idea that Logan had beaten the monster.

Evelynna, who also had a double A-level familiar, felt completely defeated in front of Logan: "What exactly are you trying to do?"

"Everyone, move aside!" Logan said, and then gave a direct order to Kerparos: "Clear the area."

At that, Kerparos’ three heads opened their mouths at the same time, and three skills were released all at once.

"Blizzard!"

"Fire Tornado!"

"Chain Lightning!"

In an instant, the whole arena was full of thunder and lightning, wind and snow, and an inferno burned everything, including the fighting stage.

The audience on the stands were surprised that the magic didn’t hit them, and they were also confused about what Logan was trying to do.

Soon, the stage and the big screen on the field were all turned to ashes, leaving only a flat open space.

Under the eyes of everyone, Logan walked silently to the center of the open ground and coldly looked around at the challengers.

Then, he raised his hand and pointed at the Temple knights who were standing together: "You guys, the knights of the Temple and the City Guard soldiers—come at me all at once!"

"I’ll fight all three hundred of you at the same time!
