Gurumba Arena.
With the rise of his Demon Avatar, Soren now had a foothold in the Abyss.
The arena's interior had become a core territory entirely controlled by the Demon Avatar, while the town established outside had been entrusted to the fiends. In the Abyss, strength mattered most. As long as the Demon Avatar could overpower those fiends, neither authority nor wealth would pose any problem. Recently, Gurumba Arena had been preparing a large-scale death combat event. Through the efforts of the yugoloths, its contestants included not only demons, devils, and fiends, but also elders from the Elemental Plane and humanoids from the Outer Planes.
This competition had even attracted a small number of visitors from the First Floor of the Abyss and from Ysgard.
Watching death combat was one of the few forms of entertainment in the Abyss. Taking part in the slaughter personally was undoubtedly dangerous, and Gurumba Arena offered battles between creatures of high tier and above.
Even legendary demons considered this a form of entertainment worth praising!
There was another, more important point.
The arena's victors could often gain fame and status. This was how Soren operated behind the scenes, using fame and status to entice powerful high-tier beings into participating in death combat.
The winner of each competition could usually gain renown very quickly through Gurumba Arena.
The spectators who came to watch could even spread that renown among fiends, devils, other layers of the Abyss, and even certain circles in Baator Hell.
Recently.
Even demon leaders with considerable influence nearby had begun attending. They did not mind offering better terms to entice the arena's victors into their service.
Fame.
Fortune.
A victory in Gurumba Arena brought generous rewards immediately, and the victors' reputations could spread with ease. Thus, both fame and fortune were assured.
