Time Travel: Age of Discovery

In the banquet hall, Teya stood there, at a loss as to what to do, while the audience and the emcee all looked confused.

However, everyone knows that this matter will not be easily resolved, and they can only wait and see.

he came.

Teya noticed that the man with the pipe in his mouth finally appeared. He was wearing a black velvet collared cloak and walked towards him slowly with steady steps.

"You must be Carlos, right? I am willing to be your opponent in the upcoming Ten Styles Contest. Excuse me, my name is Adilheid, the ruler of this arena."

The whole audience was instantly boiling with excitement. It turned out to be the powerful man from the legendary Tenth Style Field.

The emcee was also shocked. He had only heard of the person but had never seen him. Even the senior staff had not been able to see the full picture.

Could today be the time to witness a miracle?

The emcee continued to explain the upcoming contest in a professional manner, instantly igniting the audience's enthusiasm.

"Ah, can we not fight?"

When Teya said this, the whole audience was stunned, just like a raging fire suddenly poured with cold water.

Teya truly wanted to fight this man; after all, he was supposed to be the strongest here. However, he had a vague feeling that if he proceeded this way, his purpose in coming here would be in vain. It would be better to go with the flow and see how he reacted, even if it meant showing weakness.

Although Teya has nearly 90% chance of winning, what he is more concerned about at the moment is who controls this place.

Perhaps, the man in front of him was just a piece in the chess game, and even Teya had unconsciously stepped into the center of the chessboard.

The man was a little surprised, but when he saw that the other party was not joking, he smiled in response.

It seems that this Carlos may have other intentions or is well versed in human nature, but does he really think he can defeat me?

Both parties' minds raced, each imagining the other's intentions, and they reached a tacit understanding without words, each with their own goals.

"If you don't want to fight, you'll be considered a forfeit, and the Ninth Form Challenge will be considered a success." The man extinguished his pipe, his lips curled slightly as he looked at Teya. "However, with your strength, there's no need to participate in 'Showdown Moment'. None of them can defeat you."

Teya didn't care about it. Since the other party said so, he accepted it calmly. After all, this was someone else's place.

Although the battle did not continue, Thea remained in a state of readiness at all times, abandoning the battle to preserve strength, which was crucial.

Teya is determined to uncover the hidden truth and legendary treasures of this place. The first thing he needs to do is to find out the reason for the existence of the arena.

This place is like a paradise, yet it attracts many powerful people. What secrets does it hide?

"Then, follow me. I can answer any question you have, as I recognize your strength."

Teja left with Adil Haider, but the battle is not over yet. The remaining contestants must still fight for the third and fourth places.

After walking through the corridor, Teya stepped into the grand reception room.

"This is the limit. You are second to those who can reach this point. The first is Soders, who was defeated by you."

"So? Could you please tell me why the arena exists?"

Adil Haider calmly gestured for Thea to sit down, lit his pipe, and took a leisurely puff.

"Do you know about the black market?"

The name of the black market was very familiar to Teya, but he frowned and said that he knew a little about it.

Adilheid nodded.

"I am the elite leader of the current black market. The so-called arena is designed to attract the strong and allow them to fully display their talents."

Teya was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help asking, "So, the treasure story is actually..."

"The legend of the treasure is true, but we have searched everywhere and found no trace of it."

The man smiled and said, "But you don't have to worry. If you want wealth, join my black market. I can guarantee you endless gold, silver, and status."

"Is it?"

Teya also laughed out loud, it seemed that there was no need to say more about this matter.

Teya has no interest in money, but he loves adventure. Of course, he does not reject wealth.

At this moment, he had obtained the answer he was looking for and achieved his goal, so it would be best for him to leave as soon as possible.

Teya thought to himself, can he really leave so easily?

He has a connection with the black market that is beyond words.

Teya laughed at himself, recalling the matter of the surgery fruit, which seemed to be closely related to the black market.

Where does this black market come from?

At this time, Adilhaid noticed the changes in Thea's expression.

He has always been outspoken and never hides anything, so he explained his purpose to Teya at the beginning, saving Teya the trouble of asking questions.

Moreover, since he offered such conditions, the challengers who came here for his reputation had no reason to refuse. What's more, they had enough strength to keep them.

"Well? You can consider it calmly. No matter what you choose, we will not make it difficult for you."

Adilhaid said this to Teya, firstly to appease him, and secondly because he was still wary of Teya's strength.

One more friend is always better than one more enemy, this is their principle of action.

However, Adilhaid did not expect that Teja would directly refuse.

"I apologize, but I'm used to being alone. Although you are sincere, I have no intention of doing this."

Adil Haid was stunned. Did this Carlos regard this place as a place of entertainment?

As early as when Teya was still in the valley, he sent people to investigate this man, but all he knew was that he was a visitor from Sirolo Island and an adventurer, and nothing else was known.

The newspaper reports did attract many treasure hunters. Although strong men occasionally appeared, they were all "cowards" and not worth mentioning.

A powerful master like Teya is rare, and he is free. If he can be recruited, he will become a great help to the black market.

However, Adilhaid was disappointed. Teja had no interest in this and longed for freedom.

"Well, goodbye, this battle was very enjoyable."

Teya stood up and tried to leave, but before he had taken a few steps, he was stopped by Adilheid.
