After absorbing the memories, Ye Feng had no intention of staying in his room to train bitterly. Instead, he chose to head out. With more than sixty years of information that had yet to happen now in his mind, shutting himself away was not his style. When he opened the door and saw the scene outside, he still felt slightly dazed. So many memories would take time to adapt to.

After taking a moment to recover, Ye Feng decided that his first stop would be the Beast Fighting Arena Ye Mingyue had invited him to visit three days ago.

From his conversations with Ye Mingyue in those memories, he already knew the winners and losers of several major matches over the next few days. He personally despised gambling, but when you knew the answer beforehand, it was called investment.

Although some of the Secret Realms in his memories were unsuitable for him at present, he still intended to claim some of the harmless benefits first. No one ever complained about having too much money.

To ensure the safety of this trip, Ye Feng first went to the Grade A Room in the Elder Area, arriving at his father Ye Changming's residence. After explaining his intentions, he soon left the Ye Family with two Organ Refining Realm Martial Artists.

Although, with Ye Feng's current strength, even among Blood Transformation Realm Martial Artists, there should be few who could match him. Moreover, with the identity jade pendant of the Ye Family's Direct Lineage displayed outside, people from the major powers throughout Fengyuan City would basically not make a move against him.

However, as the saying went, "The King of Hell is easy to provoke, but petty demons are hard to deal with." This time, he intended to win a fairly substantial sum. To the Beast Fighting Arena, that money was merely a drop in the ocean, not enough for them to stop him from leaving. But to prevent some blind fool from growing jealous at the sight of him, failing to recognize his identity, and causing an unavoidable conflict, having two Organ Refining Realm Guest Family Guards accompany him meant there would probably be no accidents.

If his family had guard resources, then he would use them. He had no desire to be like those Protagonists he had seen, making enemies everywhere and slapping faces at every turn. That was not his style.

Inside Fengyuan Beast Fighting Arena

This was the largest Beast Fighting Arena in all of Fengyuan City. It was directly named after the city itself: Fengyuan Beast Fighting Arena. It was one of the Fengyuan City Lord's industries, with only some guards casually assigned for daily maintenance and no especially powerful experts stationed here.

Even so, members of the Four Great Families would not provoke it lightly. If an Earth Origin Realm expert or stronger truly caused trouble here, the speed at which people from the City Lord's Mansion rushed to the Beast Fighting Arena would absolutely surpass your imagination.

Unlike the other Beast Fighting Arenas in Fengyuan City, Fengyuan Beast Fighting Arena had an entry threshold. That threshold had nothing to do with one's identity, but required proof of wealth. One needed at least a single Sky Flame Copper Coin to qualify for entry into Fengyuan Beast Fighting Arena.

The place where Ye Feng lived fell under the jurisdiction of Xijiang Duchy. Because there were many rivers throughout the duchy, it was also called Jiang State. Jiang State was ruled by the Jiang Clan, and the Jiang Clan had joined the Sky Flame Alliance. The Sky Flame Alliance was the strongest alliance in the eastern Azure Continent, consisting of sixty-four nations. It included not only duchies like that ruled by the Jiang Clan, but also seven kingdoms above the duchies.

Above the seven kingdoms stood the Sky Flame Alliance's leading nation, the Sky Flame Empire. The Sky Flame Empire was the only empire in the eastern Azure Continent, its strength exceedingly formidable. The citizens of the nations within the Sky Flame Alliance all recognized the currency it produced.

These currencies were all made from materials highly valued by Martial Artists: Sky Flame Copper Coins, made from Red Copper, a Yellow Grade rare material and hard currency; Sky Flame Silver Coins, made from Mithril, a Mysterious Grade rare material; and Sky Flame Gold Coins, made from Adamantine, an Earth Grade precious material.

Even aside from their purchasing value as currency, Martial Artists could melt down these coins and add them to weapons they were forging, increasing the power of Treasure Artifacts. Some formations also required these Spiritual Materials, and they could even be used in cultivation. Their broad range of uses was one reason they could serve as the primary materials for currency.

Take Adamantine, for example. It was itself an Inscription material, used to carve inscriptions into weapons at the Treasure Artifact level and above. There were many kinds of inscriptions, each with different effects.

Few people directly melted down currency, as doing so resulted in a tenth of its value being lost. Most people who needed Spiritual Materials simply bought the materials they required, since people placed greater trust in the purchasing power of Sky Flame Currency. The exchange rates among these Sky Flame currencies were 1:100:1000. In fact, Sky Flame Gold Coins were much smaller than silver coins, yet their value was greater. Few would use one gold coin to exchange for a hundred Mithril Coins.

At this moment, within the inner area of Fengyuan Beast Fighting Arena, a man dressed in the attire of the Ye Family's Direct Lineage lay sideways in a reclining chair. As he watched the Demonic Beasts fighting below, a stunningly voluptuous beauty fed grapes into his mouth. The table beside him was laden with all kinds of fruit and delicacies.

That man was Ye Feng, who had come to Fengyuan Beast Fighting Arena. This was the first time he had enjoyed himself since awakening his memories. In his previous life, how could he have had time to be so leisurely?

After arriving at the Beast Fighting Arena, he did not immediately begin placing bets. During his second Simulation, he himself had never come to Fengyuan Beast Fighting Arena. Rather, through Ye Mingyue's descriptions, he had learned the outcomes of several major beast fights over the past few days. As it happened, there would be two such matches today, and there was still some time before they began.

While Ye Feng waited, Ye Mingyue had also just finished cultivating in the Training Room and came to the Beast Fighting Arena to watch the fun. When he saw Ye Feng reclining in the chair, Ye Mingyue vigorously rubbed his eyes with his small hands, thinking he had seen wrong. But he did not remember Ye Feng ever mentioning that he had an older brother.

Yet the person before him looked extremely similar to Ye Feng. They had met only a few days ago, and at that time, he had still been slightly taller than Ye Feng. How had Ye Feng now grown a whole head taller than him? Ye Mingyue was utterly baffled.

Hearing movement behind him, Ye Feng turned around and noticed Ye Mingyue's gaze and puzzled expression. He quickly had the beauty beside him deliver a Chicken Leg to Ye Mingyue. Taking the Chicken Leg handed to him by the woman, Ye Mingyue took a savage bite. Since he could not figure it out, he decided not to think about it anymore.

Although Ye Mingyue had never seen a situation similar to Ye Feng's, he had heard of some. With mutated Bone Structures like his, there truly was a possibility of later turning into a beneficial mutation or reverting to one's ancestors. Moreover, the continent possessed all kinds of Spiritual Materials that could increase one's height. After his initial surprise, Ye Mingyue quickly sat down in a chair near Ye Feng.
