Many of the lords watching were stunned.
"Strange. Meng Chuan opened with Demon Species?"
"Demon armies are powerful, sure, but aren't they incredibly hard to tame?"
"What's Meng Chuan thinking? With this kind of advantage, shouldn't he play it safe?"
In the second-floor box, Queen Bee, Old Zhong, and Sky Monkey exchanged glances.
"I heard Heavenly Prefecture Territory has been working to conquer the Dark Age plane... Looks like they've made considerable gains," Queen Bee said gravely.
Old Zhong nodded. "Looks like Meng Chuan wants to use this fight to show off his strength. Lord Xia Feng made him furious, after all. He practically lost all face."
Sky Monkey stared. "Then isn't Lord Lu Wang in serious trouble? Meng Chuan's picked him to make an example of?"
Inside the dueling arena.
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes at the projection of the black pool opposite him.
This isn't quite what the reports said. But judging by the strength of his Medium, it should be relatively weak... I'll watch for now.
Only Snake Princess stood beside Bai Xiaowen.
Her existence was no secret. She had already appeared during his battle with Shi Yu on Dinosaur Planet.
Since his opponent was a level 17 high-tier combat-type lord, Bai Xiaowen clearly couldn't send Snake Princess to decapitate him. She might end up getting killed instead.
As for the newly emerged Four Heavenly Kings and Rageclaw, they made five Lord Tier combatants in all. Bai Xiaowen didn't want to summon them all, mainly because he wanted to conceal his strength.
He was confident in his Command-type abilities. In a fair duel like this, a Command-type lord had a natural advantage.
Based on what Bai Xiaowen had learned about Meng Chuan before the match, he could win even without revealing the Four Heavenly Kings.
