Cha Hyuk looked around, trying to find a gap in the firewall. Of course, he could not find any gap to break free from the firewall. He could feel it as the temperature rose very quickly, and his face turned red from the heat. It was a sign that the fire was becoming hotter and hotter.

Then Cha Hyuk looked up as he calculated how tall the firewall was. The only chance to escape from the firewall was from above. However, the firewall was around ten meters tall, and he was not confident enough to jump over it.

'Even if I can jump over the wall, there are another four layers of the same firewall. No, but I have to take the chance. We can't afford another loss after our first against the Tachibana Clan.' Cha Hyuk steeled his heart and was about to make a jump, but then he saw a fireball above him. The fireball was around five meters in diameter. He realized that that fireball would descend toward him if he made the jump.

"Damn, Magician!" Cha Hyuk cussed out before returning his spear into his inventory. "I give up!" There was just no chance for him to win against his opponent. Of course, he had the skill to block the attack, but he did not think it was enough. Let's say he could get out with the least injury from the firewall and the fireball, but what next? On top of that, Cha Hyuk was not confident with his skill to face this kind of fire. He could sense the fire was different from the usual fire for sure.

The firewall disappeared and showed a roasted figure inside the firewall. His skin was red for being too long, similar to a cooked crab. Cha Hyuk was in a daze as he looked at the back of the woman who defeated him. He had a bitter smile on his face and muttered. "I am the number five of the Legion Guild, and I can't do shit in this fight." He was disappointed in himself.

As the red-haired woman was about to enter the portal, he extended his forward and called out. "Wait a moment." Liang Suyin stopped her steps and looked back with a puzzled look. "May I know your name, and where you come from?" Cha Hyuk asked boldly.

Liang Suyin blinked her eyes as she looked at the man. Then she looked up, her name and his name were still up there. But then she frowned as she realized something from the question. He asked where she came from as well, not just her name. It was clear that this man wanted to find the Tang Empire's main base. That was what crossed her mind after thinking about it a while. It was not simply hitting on her, as his objective was the second question.

"I am not that stupid to tell my home to a stranger." After saying that, Liang Suyin turned around and entered the portal, leaving the stupefied Cha Hyuk. He blinked his eyes as thought about what he had done to offend the beauty. Only after he returned to his booth, his friend smacked the back of his head.

"Stupid. Why would you ask that in front of many people? It's the same as asking to reveal the Tang Empire's main base. Of course, she will not tell you." The number three of the Legion Guild, Yoo Kwang Sung shook his head. "Also, I advise you not to hit any women from the Tang Empire unless you have made a background check. Look over there." Yoo Kwang Sung pointed at the Tang Empire's booth.

Cha Hyuk looked over and was shocked at what he saw. Liang Suyin was kissing Tang Shaoyang, not on the cheek, but lips. It was a clear signal that she was taken, and her man was the leader of the Tang Empire.

"I don't want our guild to be targeted by a major faction like the Tang Empire just because of a woman. Unless the Guild Leader wants to wage a war against the Tang Empire." Yoo Kwang Sung, Cha Hyuk, and the other members looked at Park Nam Hoon. They realized that their Guild Leader was staring at someone in the Tang Empire's booth.

"What are you looking at, Guild Leader?" Cha Hyuk asked. Park Nam Hoon snapped out from his gaze and looked at his friends. "Look at the Tang Empire's spectator booth, they have an Elf. What do you think? Do I have a chance with her?"

Pyak!

Yoo Kwang Sung smacked his Guild Leader's head. "Please use your brain, Park Nam Hoon! Look at that Elf, look at her gaze, who she is looking at? The Tang Empire's Emperor. He dares to call himself an Emperor, so I bet he has several women, Empress, concubines, and mistresses. So, I advise you not to take any interest in the beauties around that man, unless you want to wage war against the Tang Empire."

Park Nam Hoon rubbed the back of his head. "You just smack your Guild Leader's head."

"I don't know why we chose this dude to be our Guild Leader. Can you put some sense into his head, Jin Sang, Shi Eun?" Yoo Kwang Sung shook his head as he walked toward the portal gate. Park Jin Sang was the second in the Legion Guild while Song Shi Eun was the fourth. The five friends formed the guild together and helped the survivor and became one of the most influential guilds in South Korea.

"I will take our first win against the Tang Empire." Yoo Kwang Sung was doing a light stretch as he was about to enter the arena.

"I don't think you can get the first win for us, Kwang Sung." Cha Hyuk looked at the arena. The player named Wen was not a human, but a beastmen. "Look at your opponent!"

Yoo Kwang Sung looked over and his face paled instantly. He had witnessed how scary the first two beastmen were. His mouth opened as he wanted to say something, but no words came out of his mouth. His mouth opened and closed, back and forth for sometime before finally looking at his friends. "Wish me luck, guys."
