The attendant couldn't help but glance at Bibi Dong, who exuded an air of elegance, upon hearing the unusual name.

"Alright, it's been registered. Are you confirming the match?" the attendant asked again.

"Confirmed, no mistakes. Hurry up!" Flender said impatiently.

Flender and Zhao Wuji had spent nearly a year advancing to the Soul Ancestor level, all for the sake of defeating Lin Yongming and reclaiming their pride.

Now, after finally encountering Lin Yongming again, Flender couldn't contain his eagerness. The thought of finally defeating Lin Yongming after such arduous training made him restless. He had waited far too long for this moment.

Zhao Wuji, on the other hand, wasn't as visibly agitated as Flender, though he too was eager to test himself against Lin Yongming this time.

"Confirmed, no mistakes," Lin Yongming replied, sensing the attendant's gaze on him.

This kind of arranged match required mutual consent from both parties before the attendant could finalize it. If either side disagreed, the attendant wouldn't dare proceed. Offending a Soul Master was bad enough, but the attendant could also face punishment from their superiors if things went south.

"Everyone, your match has been successfully arranged. Please wait for the broadcast announcement," the attendant said with a polite smile.

"Haha… Asura, don't beg for mercy later," Flender sneered at Lin Yongming upon hearing the confirmation.

"Though my strength may not be overwhelming, you're overestimating yourself," Lin Yongming replied calmly.

"Ugh! Four-Eyes, you're so arrogant! Just wait and see how I smash your glasses!" Bibi Dong shot back, unable to tolerate Flender's haughty tone.

"Hmph! A delicate little girl like you? I could even let you take the first few moves."

"Zhao Wuji, let's go!" Flender said, calling Zhao Wuji to prepare.

"Blindie, make sure to leave Four-Eyes to me. I'll definitely smash his glasses!" Bibi Dong immediately claimed her opponent.

"Alright, no problem," Lin Yongming replied nonchalantly.

Since Bibi Dong was in the mood for some fun, he didn't want to spoil her excitement.

"But be careful. That Four-Eyes has the Cat Eagle Spirit, a flying agility-type Soul Master. He has an advantage in the air, though the size of the arena limits his mobility," Lin Yongming reminded her.

"A flying Soul Master, huh? No wonder he wears glasses—he probably can't see up close," Bibi Dong scoffed.

"I've fought him once before. I remember his first three spirit abilities…" Lin Yongming proceeded to explain Flender's spirit abilities to Bibi Dong.

"His spirit abilities are decently distributed, but I can use my Death Spiderweb Bind to keep him grounded," Bibi Dong said, already formulating a plan to counter Flender.

As Bibi Dong observed the growing excitement in the Great Spirit Arena, the crowd's cheers echoed throughout the venue.

"I have to admit, I didn't expect the Great Spirit Arena to be this popular. It's practically packed," Bibi Dong remarked, looking at the densely packed audience.

"Of course. People love watching Soul Masters, who usually seem untouchable, fight right before their eyes. It lets them live out their fantasies about Soul Masters, so it's no wonder they're drawn to it," Lin Yongming explained.

"True," Bibi Dong nodded.

"And it's only around 8 PM right now. The most intense time at the Great Spirit Arena is around 10 PM. That's when the crowd is at their most passionate and excited," Lin Yongming added.

Having spent nearly a year at the Great Spirit Arena, Lin Yongming wasn't the most knowledgeable about the place, but he had picked up on a few things.

"Next up is a Soul Ancestor-level two-on-two match: the Cat Eagle and Zhao Wuji duo versus Asura and Rakshasa. Both teams, please prepare. The match will begin in ten minutes on Arena One."

With the announcement of the match, it was finally Lin Yongming and Bibi Dong's turn. The broadcast echoed throughout the hall.

"Is it our turn?" Bibi Dong asked curiously upon hearing the announcement.

"Yes, it's our turn. We have ten minutes to prepare. I didn't expect the Great Spirit Arena to assign us to the main arena."

Arena One was the main leitai of the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena, spanning over a hundred square meters. It was typically reserved for team battles.

Lin Yongming had participated in over a hundred matches at the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena, but this was his first time on Arena One.

The organizers had likely assigned them to the main arena because two-on-two Soul Ancestor-level matches were rare in Suotuo. Combined with Asura's reputation, they wanted to ensure the match would be as spectacular as possible.

"Asura! Did I hear that right? Asura is fighting again?"

"Yeah, I thought he left the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena after earning his Gold Spirit Badge. I didn't expect him to return."

"A Soul Ancestor-level two-on-two match on Arena One? This is going to be a visual feast! Let's go find the best seats!"

"Hey, big brothers, I'm new here. Is this Asura really that famous?"

"Famous? He's a legend! Since you called us 'big brothers,' we'll tell you all about Asura's legendary feats at the Great Spirit Arena!"

"A legend? Is it really that impressive?"

"Just listen…"

The mention of Asura's name stirred up a frenzy among those familiar with Lin Yongming's alias. The crowd rushed to Arena One's spectator seats to secure the best spots.

"It's finally our turn. Zhao Wuji, you handle the girl. I'll take on Asura," Flender said, his eyes gleaming with excitement as he instructed Zhao Wuji.

"No problem," Zhao Wuji nodded.

As Flender and Zhao Wuji reached the entrance, Lin Yongming and Bibi Dong arrived at the opposite entrance. Both sides waited for the host.

"Here I am! The most handsome and eloquent host in the Great Spirit Arena! On behalf of the Great Spirit Arena, I welcome you all to the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena!" The familiar host, holding a microphone, jumped onto a movable platform above the leitai and began his energetic commentary.

"Enough talk! Bring out Asura!" the audience shouted.

"Haha… You're as enthusiastic as ever. That's right, tonight's main event features the one and only Asura, who has won hundreds of consecutive matches at the Great Spirit Arena. But this time, it's different—this is a Soul Ancestor-level two-on-two match!"

"This will also be Asura's first time participating in a two-on-two match. Let's all look forward to his performance tonight!"

"Let's give a warm welcome to Asura and his partner, Rakshasa!" the host announced.

"Blindie, I didn't expect you to be this popular. Listen to the crowd—I'm almost jealous," Bibi Dong said, hearing the audience chant Lin Yongming's alias.

"Asura!"

"…"

The audience's enthusiasm didn't wane. They continued chanting for nearly eight minutes, only stopping when Lin Yongming stepped onto the leitai's edge.
