After exchanging some words, Meng Lei felt that the Flame Arena's benefits were really good. The appearance fee was relatively high, and the protection mechanism was very sound!
Its only weakness was that it was extremely dangerous!
Once he stepped into the ring, it would be a real battle of life and death!
Weapons hurt people easily in a battle, and nobody could guarantee that there would be no accidents. This had resulted in a very high mortality rate for fighters!
Hence, it was not easy earning money from this!
“Little friend Meng Lei, if you think these requirements are okay, sign this contract!”
Uno prepared a contract and handed it to Meng Lei. After Meng Lei had read it carefully and confirmed that there were no problems, he decisively put down his signature!
Since he had made his decision, he would not hesitate!
“The contract is in effect!”
After watching Meng Lei sign the contract, Uno stretched out his right hand and said, “Brother Meng Lei, welcome to Flame Arena. From now on, you will be a member of our arena!”
Uno was very happy. The Flame Arena had more than 10,000 fighters of various types, but the number of magician fighters did not exceed the fingers on his hands!
Magician fighters were too rare!
In order to recruit magician fighters, the Flame Arena not only lowered its standards but also promised huge profits. Unfortunately, the Magician profession was an honorable one and made money easily. Who would want to surrender their status to be a precarious fighter?
Magician fighters had always been a scarce resource!
Therefore, Uno was overjoyed after he recruited the Magician Meng Lei!
“Brother Meng Lei, this is your identity badge. With this badge, you can enter and exit Flame Arena freely. Also, you can watch any match in Flame Arena for free!

“Of course, including tonight's King of Fighters battle!”
“This is a part of the benefits!?”
“Hehe, the fighters are part of the arena's staff, so they have the right to watch the fights!”
“That's great!” Meng Lei nodded slightly. “Master Uno, I wonder if I can familiarize myself with the arena?”
“Of course!”
Uno smiled slightly and called a service staff. He then said with a smile, “Brother Meng Lei, this is our arena service staff, Mary. Let her show you around!”
“Well then, thank you, Master Uno!”
Meng Lei smiled and thanked him before he left the office!
When the two walked away, Uno beckoned someone to his side!
“Investigate his background. I want to know everything about him!”
“Yes, sir!”
Mary had a pair of fluffy cat ears, which looked very cute as they moved around. She also had a beautiful fluffy tail, a unique symbol of cat people!

With her leading the way, Meng Lei wandered around Flame Arena. The huge fighting arena contained distinct levels. The largest and most luxurious facilities were the fighting arenas themselves!
“Flame Arena has 31 arenas of various types, including 20 bronze arenas, 10 silver arenas, and 1 golden arena!
“The area of each arena is amazing, and it can accommodate 100,000 spectators at any time. An arena is divided into the ring and the viewing platform!
“The viewing platform is divided into VIP boxes and the fighter viewing platform…”
Mary was very talkative, enthusiastic, and patient in her explanation. After walking and looking around, Meng Lei had a general understanding of Flame Arena!
Finally, Meng Lei came to the golden arena where the King of Fighters battle would be held tonight—the Flaming Ring of Life and Death!
As the only golden arena in Flame Arena, the Flaming Ring of Life and Death was much larger than any gymnasium on Earth. It was in the shape of a pillar, very much like Rome's Colosseum on Earth!
The ring was at the bottom, surrounded by the spectator stands!
Presently, the spectator stands at the Flaming Ring of Life and Death were already filled with people. The nobles, wealthy merchants, and ladies from the capital city were talking enthusiastically about tonight's King of Fighters battle!
The waiters in the arena walked through the stands, serving wine and water, and delivering desserts and dried fruits. The huge golden arena was full of voices and looked very lively!
Although the King of Fighters battle had not yet started, the atmosphere in the arena had already reached a frenzy!
Meng Lei appeared on the fighter viewing platform!
This was the area where fighters watched the battle. It was higher than the ordinary spectator stands but lower than the VIP boxes. It was located in the middle of the viewing platform and was meant for the arena's staff to view the battles!
“Eh? There is someone new here?”
The fighter viewing area was already full of fighters. They were slightly surprised when they saw the unexpected arrival of Meng Lei. His young age made it even more surprising!
Meng Lei nodded casually and found a place to sit down. He did not know any of the fighters here, and there was no need to!
No one was certain who they would meet in the arena. By then, they would be fierce rivals!

It was completely unnecessary to befriend enemies. Their statuses meant that there could be no real friendship between fighters!
Meng Lei was right!
There was indeed no friendship between fighters!
Although the fighters were very familiar with each other and understood each other's strength, level, tricks, fighting habits, etc., they were not friends with each other!
1
To understand each other was just to know your enemy better so that they can improve their chances of winning!
Some of the fighters' gazes flickered as they stared at Meng Lei carefully, trying to see through all his secrets. Most of them were One-Star or Two-Star Bronze Fighters!
Meng Lei was a newcomer, and they were likely to meet him in future battles. Hence, they had to study him carefully!
Meng Lei didn't know what these fighters were thinking. He looked into the distance as though he was paying attention to the ring. In fact, he was counting today's gains!
Ever since he had left the academy until rushing to Flame Arena and sitting here to watch the battles, he had not had a moment of rest!
After leaving the academy, the system's cue sound had not stopped ringing. This meant that Meng Lei had been picking non-stop, especially in Flame Arena, where the pick-up rate was higher!

Among the light balls he picked up, most of them were physical body constitution light balls, followed by gold coin light balls. Magical power light balls and spell light balls were relatively rare!
What surprised Meng Lei were the spirit light balls and the battle skill light balls. Perhaps because the King of Fighters battle was about to take place today, people were very excited, and hence these two types of light balls were surprisingly common!
In just one afternoon, Meng Lei's spiritual power had increased by more than 100 points, and he had picked up six battle skills and a… Battle Aura Technique!
Battle Aura Technique, this is a rare item!
Meng Lei immediately went through the Battle Aura Technique named Fire Dragon Manual and was stunned!
What a stroke of luck!
After browsing the information in his mind, Meng Lei was left with a dumbfounded expression.
This item turns out to be a Battle Aura Technique of the Fire Dragon Kingdom's royal family. Only Dragon People with fire dragon bloodlines are qualified to practice!
1
The royal family—the race that controlled the Fire Dragon Kingdom!
After tens of thousands of years of reproduction, the royal family of Fire Dragon Kingdom had plenty and diverse members, including pureblood Fire Dragons, mixed-blood Dragon People, and mixed-blood Dragon Beasts!
There were only a few pureblood Fire Dragons, and the most numerous were the mixed-blood dragons. The Dragon People consisted nearly 99.99% of the royal family's population!
Although most of them had diluted bloodlines and were the sort that lazed around, they were, after all, members of the royal family!
They were all qualified to cultivate the Fire Dragon Manual.
As for other people, no matter how high their status was, how much their wealth they had, and how noble their bloodlines were, they were not qualified to cultivate the Fire Dragon Manual!
Here's the problem!
I am not of the Fire Dragon bloodline!
