The people around them could not tell that the disciples who were sitting behind Arne were all incredibly anxious.
One of the disciples from the Deer Pavilion said anxiously, “Arne, how could you be so reckless?! Didn't we already
talk about it? We’d wait one or two days before starting the black iron bet. Starting it now will just leave yourself ill-
prepared. You should let yourself calm down first. Only then will you be able to act confidently on stage! We can’t
afford any mistakes at all! We’d already discussed everything, so why did you suddenly start a black iron bet?!”
After saying that, the others from the Deer Pavilion started to complain as well. They felt like Arne was acting way
too rashly.
Feeling the intense gazes from everyone, and listening to the complaints from his fellow disciples, Arne felt

The moment he wanted to say something, the caretaker at the center of the stage said again, “The challenger for
the black iron bet is called Lucius! Please head to the stage right now and choose the beast for the first match!”
The moment the caretaker said that quite a few people were
stunned. Were they mistaken?
The one who started the black iron bet called Lucius! It was not Arne!
Arne had been so arrogant, trying his best to tell everyone that he would start a black iron bet to clear his and
Lesley’s name. Yet, the person who started the black iron bet was not him, but someone called Lucius.
Quite a few of them started to look all over, asking loudly, “Who’s Lucius? Do any of you know him? Have you ever
heard of this name?” “Anyone who would dare to start a black iron bet at this moment must be a disciple from a big
clan!”
“Since they’re a disciple from a big clan, they should more or less be somewhat well known. I know most of the
famous disciples, but I’ve never heard of anyone by that name!”
As everyone was discussing the matter, Jackie stood up from the crowd. He walked right onto the stage, stunning
everyone, including Arne and Rudy.
All of them had their mouths slightly open as they looked at Jackie in
disbelief. That was Lucius?
He had started the black iron bet! A wandering warrior?
Various thoughts formed in their heads as they struggled to find the words. Rudy took a deep breath. No wonder
Jackie had just remained smiling. Jackie had already known that the person who started the black iron bet was not
Arne, but himself!

Rudy took a deep breath as he suppressed the excitement in his heart. He was a hundred percent confident in
Jackie. No matter how absurd the things Jackie did seemed to be, he would feel that Jackie had his reasons.
Furthermore, he felt like Jackie absolutely could start the black iron bet. Rudy knew him, but the others did not. All
of them felt like the guy called Lucius must be mad!
To avoid any unnecessary trouble, Jackie had not only changed his looks but even his name as well. Hundred Beast
City would not deliberately ask for a warrior’s true name after all. There was nothing wrong with giving himself a
fake name. Jackie had no affiliation at all, so he could change it all!
When Jackie stepped onto the stage, everyone was in an uproar!
“Is this Lucius guy really crazy? Does he know what he’s doing? Does he know what will happen if he doesn’t win
after starting the black iron bet? Why did he do that? He seems a bit too confident in himself. Even disciples from
high-grade clans won’t easily start black iron bets!”
“That's right! Even chosen disciples from eighth-grade clans wouldn’t easily start a black iron bet before being
absolutely confident in their skills.”
