Not even the medics dared get close due to how rancid the scene was, the strength, the sheer amount, and the disgusting level of human feces filling the bathroom was enough to paint the walls brown and coat them with a thick layer, and turning the entire place into a shit-hole that not even flies wanted to go in. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

In the middle of all that filth, covered from head to toes, and with her head plunged deep into the shattered bowl, Ki, the Love Path Master was left unconscious as the Pig God had just shat her out a few minutes ago.

When her eyes opened up, a horrid, monstrous cry could be heard, shaking the entire arena like the roar of a titanic creature. It sounded inhuman, and inhuman it was, filled with pure rage, humiliation, and utter rage and vengeance. She didn’t just lose, but was eaten whole, and shat out alive by a foul pig.

Half an hour later, Pig God was resting in his room, trying to recover and eat a few meals after emptying his bowls, when the door got kicked open, and a naked Ki, fresh out of the bath, walked in. "You bastard! I’m going to kill you here and now!" She shouted, taking a few heavy steps forward, and each of her steps cracked the ground.

But before she could reach Pig God, a large hand extended in front of her, which was Arad’s arm. He was sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall and eating with Pig God, when she stormed in. But what was even scarier was that even while sitting in the ground, his head was still matching Ki’s standing height.

Her eyes turned toward him, and all the veins on her body bulged in rage.

"Wear some clothes..." Arad spoke with a calm, straight face.

"FUCK OFF!" Without warning, she swung a kick at Arad’s face with all of her might, causing a shockwave powerful enough to crack the room’s walls.

Pig God’s eyes opened wide as he growled. "Leave him alone! It is between us, isn’t it?!" But... one thing. Ki wasn’t listening to him; she was baffled, perplexed, and utterly shocked, as her ankle had shattered on Arad’s face.

Arad stood and grabbed Ki by the face, lifting her up like a toy, and no matter how she struggled, he nonchalantly walked with her toward the door. "This is for your own good. If that was a real fight, you would be a worthless piece of shit right now. If you lose under the protection of the rules of the match, you won’t have a chance in a real fight."

Arad then looked at her with a pitying face, "Go wear something, and face him again when you calm down." He then tossed her into the hallway like a little cat and closed the door.

For a whole five minutes, Ki remained there on the cold floor, holding her face with one hand and leaning on her remaining three limbs, thinking about what just happened. She had kicked Arad with all of her might, but her foot broke instead. He didn’t care about her power and easily threw her outside like a cat.

No, what was he even doing with Pig God here... the two were eating? Since both Arad and Pig God won, and based on how their matches are set up, they are bound to fight each other when the second round of elimination starts, so their next match is against each other... Who eats with their opponent?

Something was off here, and as much as she hates to admit it, Pig God isn’t the problem; Arad is. He is the irregular variable; he is the one triggering all of her senses and instincts. She already lost and got eliminated, so she has nothing to lose.

She slowly stood, and rainbow light started burning from her skin. She stood straight, turned around, and walked toward the door with a calm, passive face, and walked in. As she walked in, Arad lifted his head and looked at her. Her entire naked body was engulfed in rainbow flames, and he lifted an eyebrow.

"I told you to wear something, not flames."

"Shut up." She growled back at him, "Stand, I’ll deal with you first."

Arad smiled as he stood. "So, you want a fight? Fine, let’s head to the arena." He was tall enough that he had to duck down in the room.

Ki smiled, "That won’t be needed, I’ll kill you here."

"Arad! Leave her to me. You have nothing to do with this mess." Pig God was already rolling toward them, but when Arad spoke next, even he stopped.

"I wasn’t asking." When Arad glared at Ki’s eyes directly and informed her that he wasn’t asking nicely but giving her an order, she pissed herself right there and then.

There was a key point that not many dual cultivators explained, and it related to the power of the two people doing the act. Dual cultivation doesn’t empower people; it balances their power. So, in reality, when a strong cultivator practices it with a weaker one, the power gets taken from the stronger and given to the weaker.

So most of the time, a master would dual cultivate with his students to grant them some of his power, and usually only used as a last resort since masters don’t like growing weaker. Due to that, Ki had developed an innate talent to tell people apart and clearly understand how much power she would get or lose by sleeping with them.

For Pig God, she would lose power, meaning he is weaker than her, and that was why she felt so bad about her loss. But Arad, he was a whole other kind of monster. The charts stopped making sense, and just by looking at his eyes, she knew that if she were to dual cultivate with him, she would die from the first thrust as her soul wouldn’t be able to handle the flow of power.

She had done with countless young and weak cultivators, and the most extreme case of power overload she saw just ended up with them falling asleep for a whole day, nothing more.

The difference in power between her and Arad was far greater in magnitude than between her and a random talentless commoner. "Yes..." She looked down with a pale and terrified face. She couldn’t defy his order, because one wrong word would get her mangled.

"Wait a bit..." At that moment, a think and ashen arm landed on Ki’s shoulder, and Eris’s face appeared beside her ear. "Can you not start a needless fight?"

Arad blinked, "Eris... Yeah, you’re probably right." As he backed, Eris smiled and turned Ki toward her. "He told you to wear some clothes, and you didn’t listen." She grabbed her by the nipples and ripped them off with a single pull, causing Ki to drop down screaming.

"Clean your piss and blood here, and then go clean the bathroom he destroyed." Eris pointed at Pig God and then smiled. "After you’re done, take a bath and come to the VIP room. I’m going to rip your womb out with my bare hand, so next time you’ll never show your bare ass in front of Arad without permission."

"Aren’t you going a bit too far?" Arad looked at Eris, and she glared at him for a second, and then smiled. "Said the man who was going to beat her to a pulp. I’m not going too far. While yes, we allow countless women around you, all of them had to fulfil some rules beforehand." She smiled, "She should be grateful that I came and not Kali, otherwise, she would’ve ended up spending eternity entertaining the most horrendous of demons in the abyss."

Arad smiled, "And, what were those rules?" As he rested his fists on his hips, Eris smiled. "Absolute obedience to the higher-ranked wives and the like, or a direct order from you." She put her foot on Ki’s head and smashed her face to the ground. "This one did the opposite and disobeyed a direct order from you to dress up."

She then shrugged, "Besides, this is a light punishment for her, since by this arena’s rules, trying to kill a contestant would be punished by getting crippled so she would never fight again." She kicked Ki again, "At least now, she’ll survive to fight another day."

She then bent down and gave Ki a death stare. "After I rip your womb in the VIP room, make sure to thank Bloody Rose and kiss her feet. I was going to murder you if not for her."
