Dark Magus Returns
chapter-632

The Martial Arts Tournament was currently going through a break after two events had taken place. Despite the Light Faction in second place and not the front runner, the general public was still filled with excitement.

Many of those watching the events didn't know the true meaning behind the Martial Arts Tournament. They thought it was just a competition between the three factions as a type of peace. In some ways, they were right; they just had no idea how that peace was formed between them through the tournament.

In their eyes, sure, they supported the Light Faction, but if any of the other factions won, then it would also mean them no harm. They would rather have something more exciting to view, and just based on the two events alone, there was a lot of excitement.

During the break, there were those that remained in the stands, just relaxing or chatting with each other, but most of them were currently empty as they headed to different places within and outside the coliseum.

In the giant coliseum halls, there was a number of stalls that were set up, selling food, taking personal bets, selling equipment, and more.

There were even some Light Faction Clans that were trying to recruit the general public into Pagna warriors or to use their services. Either as bodyguards during transport or a number of other things. These stalls continued to the outside of the area as well.

At the same time, crowds of people had gathered outside. Those unable to get into the event wanted to know what had occurred, and news was spreading of what had happened so far.

"Wait, so the Dark Faction is in the lead… is it because of the White Dragon we heard rumors about?"

"I don't think so. I'm not even sure if the White Dragon is taking part in this event. If they are, there isn't really anyone that stands out… they all kind of stand out, maybe that redhead a little more than others, but wouldn't his name be Red Dragon rather than White Dragon then?"

"Wait, you're saying there's a demon in the Demonic Faction. I heard the reports about someone like that, but then why is the Demonic Faction in last place?"

"It's hard to explain. You would have had to have been there to see it. Trust me; maybe the Demonic Faction will lose all of these group events and come in last place. But when the individual events occur, I'm sure they're going to win."

"Oh, speaking of that, what are the prizes? Aren't there prizes that are presented by the Faction hosting the event, for the group and Individual scores, what are they this year?"

"Actually, they haven't been revealed yet… that must mean the prizes suck and aren't worth fighting over."

At the same time, each faction in their watching booths had meals delivered to each of the members. Anything they requested would be provided for them in the meantime.

Not only that, but there was one more thing that no one had expected to occur.

"I hope you are all enjoying your meals," the Light Faction members said, standing by the door as they looked at all of the Demonic Faction members. "For the event, we have a special visitor that will be visiting all of the factions; we hope that you will cooperate with us."

Coming in through the door was a man with light brown hair and golden silk clothing. He stood out as soon as he walked through the door.

"Oh… he's here. I'm surprised they are working with him," Lince said. "The infamous reporter, Bubble."

Standing right in front of all the Demonic Faction members staring at him, Bubble couldn't help but gulp. He was out of his comfort zone.

Very rarely did he report things first hand, but this was an opportunity he couldn't miss. There was a reason why the Light Faction had invited him, wanting him to report about the events to everyone who couldn't see them.

However, Bubble wasn't alone either because standing there, he had one of the floating mirrors that had been used in the arena by his side.

When Raze went to take a look out the glass window, he could see that everything was being recorded right now.

All of the other factions, they were watching and looking at the screen as well, as Bubble was in the room.

'I guess this is to stop us from doing anything to harm the reporter. Bubble, I've read some of the reports from him as well… He's been quite helpful in spreading my name,' Raze thought.

Of course, Bubble was trying to avoid eye contact with everyone, but he was constantly looking at Raze now and again.

He had seen what he had done against Sha Mo's army that had attacked, things that were unbelievable to the eye. And even in the event so far, he had done even more amazing things.

Without a doubt, Bubble wanted to talk to him most.

"I will be conducting an interview of how you feel about the event so far and talking about the rest of the event, so I hope you all can work with me well," Bubble said, bowing his head.

He was a lot more wary of Pagna warriors ever since all of his guards had been taken down and two men had forced their way into his office.

"I'll first like to speak to the Clan Heads that have arrived here today." Bubble looked up at the large Sha Mo who just stared right back at him.

There wasn't a single chance that he was going to get him to speak, but instead decided to go to Lince.

"We have the Lost Clan here today. Based on my knowledge, you are information gatherers for the Demonic Faction, so out of the groups today and from what you have seen, which group do you think will give you the most trouble?" Bubble asked.

"The Dark Faction seems to have multiple good candidates this year, and we have yet to see the White Dragon."

"If it comes to group work or events that aren't related to just fighting, I believe the Light Faction will give us more trouble."

The citizens watching from the screen were impressed with the answers. Many of them saw the Demonic Faction as brutes who didn't care about anything but strength and climbing to the top, but to give such reasonable answers was surprising.

After Bubble asked Lince a few more questions about the events, and then decided to speak to the students taking part themselves.

Talking to some, they had given very short answers; Lince was the only person that seemed willing to speak to him.

Bubble had even come across Mantis, the Black Tiger.

"We have yet to see the Black Tiger's skills in this event, the top student, do you think we will be able to witness something soon?" Bubble asked.

"I don't care for the group events, but when the single fighting event starts, then people will see," Mantis answered.

It didn't look like he was going to say any more, and that's when Bubble had gone to Raze. The person he had seen, and the one Bubble had the greatest idea of his real strength.

"And what about you? A lot of people after seeing your actions during the last event can't wait to see you at the person vs. person event!" Bubble asked.

Raze looked at Bubble and answered with only one sentence.

"I have no plans to enter the person versus person event. I will step aside to give the others a chance to fight."

However, Bubble saw this as a chance.

"Did everyone hear that? This means that if you were to enter the event, then no one else would stand a chance?"
