After the identity was completely exposed, the Asura's purpose was also clear at a glance.
Perhaps, this was the real reason the "Ghost" had always borrowed Zhang Yue as cover and dared not expose himself.
Because once he let people know his purpose, and everyone no longer continued to attack the Hell Gladiator Arena, he would no longer be able to use the Devouring Body to devour the power of high-level professionals.
Chen Zijin suddenly understood, "So, the opponent Zhang Yue facing this time is himself?"
Xuan Lan said, "To be exact, not only himself."
"There are also the Three Main Gods."

Meanwhile—
[Hell Gladiator Arena, Arena Level-4, Battlefield 36]
[Sin Domain]
Facing the three Three Main Gods and the Flowing Gold Warrior, Zhang Yue asked, "Who are you?"
The Flowing Gold Warrior rested the greatsword on his shoulder, and said faintly, "You're so smart, since you already knew I would come looking for you, how could you not guess who I am?"
"I… am you!"
The Flowing Gold Warrior looked over his body, and said with great satisfaction, "Didn't expect that this body of yours is quite strong! No wonder, a hundred years ago, I was defeated under your sword."
"Oh?", Zhang Yue said thoughtfully, "So, that means you're a defeated general of mine from a hundred years ago."
The Flowing Gold Warrior said coldly, "You no longer have the Devouring Body, do you think you are still the Asura from a hundred years ago?"
Zhang Yue didn't think so, "It's not certain that just because you have the Devouring Body you're so great, otherwise, you wouldn't need to go to all this trouble, needing to lure your prey into the Hell Gladiator Arena for a level reset before you could kill."
"Do you need me to teach you the correct way to use the Devouring Body?"
The Flowing Gold Warrior slowly lowered the longsword in his hand, a strong killing intent emanating from his whole body, "Don't you think you've talked too much?"
Zhang Yue smiled, "Oh? Angry?"
"If you'd been smart enough, I wouldn't have come looking for you so quickly, perhaps I'd have let you live a few more days."
The Flowing Gold Warrior, full of killing intent, said, "You forced me to this."
"Killing me should let you devour and gain quite a bit of power, right?", Zhang Yue said lightly, "Too bad, the premise is that you have to be able to kill me."
"To be honest, your current value is not even as much as a level-500 wild boar," The Flowing Gold Warrior said, "You've overestimated yourself. Killing you is as easy as turning my hand."
"Removing this stumbling block, I will become the king of this world!"
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Is that so?"
"If it were really as easy as you say, after the Hell Gladiator Arena opened, the first person you'd look for should be me."
"Don't forget, the body you occupy is mine. No one understands me better than I do, including you."
The Flowing Gold Warrior's heart suddenly trembled.
There was a feeling as if he had been completely seen through by Zhang Yue.
"Then let's try!"
The Flowing Gold Warrior pointed his sword at Zhang Yue, "I will spare no cost to kill you."
As soon as the words fell—
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, the God of Wrath Jie'e, the God of Malevolence Motan, and the God of Desire Wuen, the three Three Main Gods, attacked Zhang Yue at the same time.
And Zhang Yue also lifted the Immortal·Transcendent Staff in his hand.
His gaze fell on the Flowing Gold Warrior.
"That doesn't belong to you, give it back to me."
BOOM!
A strong killing intent burst forth from within Zhang Yue's body…
———
Meanwhile, outside—
Inside the Arena Level-4, Battlefield 36, there was suddenly a violent tremor.
From where Zhang Yue had disappeared, a powerful energy spread outward, causing the professional contestants nearby to feel a strong pressure.
"What is this power? So strong!"
"Is Zero and Ghost fighting?"
Major news media began tracking and reporting.
["According to reports, Zero has been missing for more than ten minutes, and until now there is still no sign!"]
["In the Arena Level-4, Battlefield 36, at the place where Zero disappeared, a strong energy magnetic field is emanating, the battle is not over!"]
["The magnetic field energy is gradually weakening, everything will return to calm, Zero and Ghost, who is the king of the Hell Gladiator Arena?"]
Across the world, countless people were watching this strange development.
The leaders of the seven great nations were even more nervous.
["Is there no definite news yet? How is the battle? Did Ghost kill Zero or not?"]
["At this rate, could it be that Zero killed Ghost?"]
["Hurry and capture Zero!"]
In the Beacon Nation, Elfa looked at the live screen of a contestant in Battlefield 36, with a serious expression.
No one wanted Zhang Yue to be killed by Ghost more than he did.
Because that way, he would no longer have to face Zhang Yue, and no one would contend with him for the Hell Gladiator Arena's championship reward.
As for that Ghost, he had long since seen through him.
He only acted within the Hell Gladiator Arena, which meant Ghost's strength was surely limited by level. Once outside, he would no longer be able to deal with high-level professionals.
So, after Ghost killed Zero, Elfa would avoid Ghost as much as possible inside the Hell Gladiator Arena.
Once he cleared the Hell Gladiator Arena and got the championship reward, outside the Hell Gladiator Arena, he had the confidence to kill Ghost.
Since Zhang Yue disappeared, half an hour had passed.
Under the gaze of tens of billions of people around the world, inside the Arena Level-4, Battlefield 36, calm was finally restored.
No more energy fluctuations.
It was as if everything had returned to the starting point.
Whoosh!
A mass of black cloud suddenly appeared at the place where Zhang Yue had disappeared in Battlefield 36.
This scene was captured by many contestants outside the magnetic field through their cameras, and then presented to tens of billions of viewers worldwide through live broadcast.
One second after the black cloud appeared, it quickly shot up into the sky and then disappeared.
Zhang Yue's figure was not seen.
Everything returned to calm.
At this moment, the whole world boiled over.
"What was that black cloud just now?"
"Was it Ghost?"
"If it was Ghost, wouldn't that mean Zero was defeated and killed by Ghost?"
"Didn't see Zero come out, could it be he really was killed by Ghost?"
"Zero is dead? Zero was killed by Ghost?"
When this news appeared, countless people echoed it.
For a time, the world was in chaos.
———
In front of the screen, Ice Emperor, Moon Mark, Seraph, Chen Zijin and the others fell into disbelief and despair.
"How… how is it possible, how could Zhang Yue die, Zhang Yue will not die."
———
Meanwhile, the people of the Eight Great Nations cheered endlessly before the screens.
["Hahaha! Yoshi! Zero is finally dead! This really is great news!"]
["I've always said, evil people are ground down by evil people. We ultimately overestimated Zero's strength and underestimated Ghost's power!"]
["Is this Ghost? Could he be our savior god? Thank the savior god!"]
———
In the Beacon Nation.
A proud smile spread across Elfa's face, "Too bad, not only is the fourth Mythical-level profession unrelated to your Dragon Nation, but for now you've also lost a great general!"
"This world will be ruled by me, Elfa!"
