As the cheers, roars and the voice of the announcer reached his ears, Corey's brows furrowed silently as he looked at the chains and shackles around his wrist and ankles been removed by the starless Underworld officials.

"Stop looking at us and move you piece of shit."

One of the men spoke with spite but Corey did not even glance at him and walked to the open gate a few meters away from him.

When he walked out of the gate, the sound of roars and shouts reached his ears causing him to squint his eyes lightly.

'I'm just a newbie so why are they shouting so much?'

Corey wondered and he looked at the people on the nearest seats. He saw some drinking from white disposable cups while he some with something that resembled weed.

'Alcohol? Drugs? Weed?'

This thought went through Corey's mind but a second later, he dismissed them and looked to his right where he saw what he missed the last match but would need in this match.

A rack of weapons.

He walked towards the rack and looked at the various weapons on the rack.

In a place like this, where he didn't know who was watching, he could not risk bringing out the ancient spear for various reasons.

First, the Underworld had removed everything from his inventory but they did not know about the spatial ring so if he brought out the ancient spear from out of nowhere, then that would definitely be a stupid thing to do.

Another reason he didn't want to bring it out was because he wasn't sure if there were people in the Underworld that would recognize that the ancient spear was actually a treasure.

So, with this two worries of his, Corey knew he had to get a new weapon and one of the questions he asked Divine when he realized that tier 0 Underworld residents could not buy anything from the item shops due to having zero value points was how could tier 0 residents get weapons for their battles.

Divine at that point in time chuckled and told him about the weapon rack in the Amphitheatre.

Corey was stunned hearing that since he didn't notice the weapon rack in his first fight but after thinking about it and remembering the attitude of Scar and the indifferent attitude of the tall lean man, he was no longer surprised.

The Underworld, Scar and the tall lean man had no reason or obligation to tell him about the weapon rack.

This was not a training ground.

This was Underworld.

A place of madness and a place where death and wickedness was a way of life.

As Corey stood in front of the weapon rack, he saw 4 spears on the wall but out of those four, two were definitely not in a good condition.

He picked one of the two spears which was still good, but when he did, he frowned.

"It's too light. It's like I'm a holding a thick light stick."

He dropped the spear and picked the other spear, but he frowned once again when he held the spear.

"This one is also light, and not only is it light, the shaft is made out of a wood that I can definitely snap apart."

Corey looked at the other spear which had a metal shaft instead of a wooden one.

"I guess I should choose a new weapon for now?"

Corey sighed then looked at other long range weapons that could replace a spear, but just as he was looking at the weapons, his eyes caught sight of a particular weapon or a dual weapon to be exact.

He moved closer to the weapon and with slightly cold eyes, he looked at the weapon which was a dual battle axe.

The axes were one handed, double headed battle axes with a brown handle.

Corey looked at it for a few seconds before he picked the dual battle axe.

He lifted the axes a few times and with a satisfied nod, he spoke.

"Not the best weight but it's heavy enough."

With the dual battle axe in his hands, he finally turned back towards his opponent who had long entered the Amphitheatre while he was choosing his weapon.

He looked at his opponent who was folding his arms with a look of ridicule on his face.

"I'm surprised you didn't attack me while I was fighting."

Corey said with a calm expression and tone.

Meanwhile the man who was his opponent chuckled with ridicule.

"Why would I sneak attack a small runt like you?

Would the audience like that?

I'd rather break the bones of small runt like you and torture you to my heart's content so that the fans will enjoy it the more."

Despite the mocking words of his opponent, Corey just had an indifferent expression and turned towards the announcer who was different from the announcer in his first match.

"Hey."

Corey called out and the announcer who was floating up in the air while watching the two entertainment bickle with an amused expression, turned towards Corey.

"Why don't you just give me five max level tier 0 opponents to fight so that I can finally go to the evolution center and become tier 1."

Silence

The moment Corey's words which could be heard by everybody in the Amphitheatre due to a special method which Corey had no knowledge of, silence reigned in the entire Amphitheatre.

"Do you know what you're talking about?

Are you sure about your request?"

The announcer asked with a surprised expression and Corey nodded calmly.

"Isn't the Underworld all about Entertainment?

The audience would surely want to watch a 5 vs 1 match, rather than a one vs one match between two tier 0 humans.

Am I right or am I right?"

With a calm tone and expression, Corey spoke and a few seconds passed before,

"YAAAAAAAA!!!!"

"5 ON 1!!!

5 ON 1!!!

5 ON 1!!!

5 ON 1 !!!"

"SILENT KNEE BREAKER!!

SILENT KNEE BREAKER!!

SILENT KNEE BREAKER!!!"

The whole Amphitheatre erupted into cheers, roars and a cacophony of sounds.

The announcer who was at first stunned, had a small smile emerge on his lips when he heard the cheers from the audience.

'I'm liking this kid.'

"SO PEOPLE!!!!

DO YOU WANT A 1 ON 1!!! OR A FUCKING 5 ON 1?!!!!"

With an enthusiastic loud tone and expression, the announcer spoke, and the audience responded with a voice louder than ever.

"5 ON 1!!!!!"

"THEEENNN… LET'S… FUCKING… GOOOOOO!!!!!"
