Chapter 3162: Chapter 1061

"There’s a newcomer."

To those Three-eyed people, Zhou Tian was never someone they paid attention to. And at that moment, it didn’t matter whether the arena staff were Three-eyed people or not, for Zhou Tian, in the eyes of others and marked for inevitable death, was never given a second glance, even by the ordinary people who threw him into the prison cell back then.

So, after they threw Zhou Tian into that prison cell, the people who carried him in just left. But it was the many living beings in the cell who had a similar fate that gathered around because of Zhou Tian’s arrival.

Seeing those living beings with ill intentions, Zhou Tian calmly stretched his limbs and began to assess their situation.

"What is this place?"

It was Zhou Tian’s first time entering that world, and he wasn’t very familiar with the overall situation there; he knew next to nothing about his location.

However, although Zhou Tian wasn’t clear about his predicament, he believed that the nearby gladiators certainly had a clear understanding. Thus, since Zhou Tian wasn’t sure of his position while those gladiators knew this information, he decisively decided to get the information he wanted from them.

Of course, the gladiators might not cooperate easily, but for Zhou Tian, their thoughts didn’t matter at all. Given the circumstances, making them talk didn’t seem like a difficult task for him.

Even before entering that prison cell, Zhou Tian had already sized up the appearance of those gladiators. From his observations, Zhou Tian might not have known much about that world, but he could at least make an estimate of the racial structure in the region.

All of the gladiators, without exception, bore a human appearance, and combining that with the dialogue of the Three-eyed people, Zhou Tian easily obtained some information he wanted to know. Based on that information, Zhou Tian had already formulated a plan for his actions.

Undoubtedly, in the region where he was located, there were likely two kinds of living beings: one being the ruling class, the Three-eyed people. Although their methods of combat were somewhat different, those Three-eyed people, with their unique power system in this world, wielded strength ordinary beings couldn’t contest.

Because of their powerful abilities, the Three-eyed people firmly held the position of rulers.

In contrast, in this world, the human race, which almost shared a common origin with the Three-eyed people, was not only referred to as demi-human but also had a rather low status.

Correspondingly, the main reason ordinary people were termed demi-humans and ruled over, just like the Three-eyed people, was that they lacked corresponding power. In the absence of strength, it was unavoidable for them to become members of the ruled class.

Undoubtedly, given the circumstances, when fighting against the Three-eyed people, Zhou Tian’s inability to use his true power meant that even though he could easily kill those Three-eyed opponents with his power, he often found himself at a disadvantage against them.

But the main reason the Three-eyed people could suppress Zhou Tian was that their exploitable strength at that time surpassed his. In fact, although most of Zhou Tian’s abilities were unusable, even with just his physical strength, Zhou Tian was fully confident he could defeat one or two Three-eyed individuals if they faced off against him.

Thus, while Zhou Tian still retained some of his strength, he had to consider whether his actions were reasonable when confronting Three-eyed people. But when faced with a group of ordinary gladiators, believing his strength could absolutely suppress them, he did whatever he pleased without caring about the thoughts of those gladiators.

However, Zhou Tian indeed looked down on those gladiators then, and having decided to question the opponent, he wouldn’t be surprised or bothered by any response the gladiators made at that time.

But even though Zhou Tian didn’t regard those gladiators highly and had the confidence to act as he did, the gladiators knew nothing of this. After all, at that time, to the gladiators, Zhou Tian was just another newcomer in the arena. Lacking the identity of a Three-eyed person, the gladiators may not have underestimated him but certainly didn’t fear him.

So, when Zhou Tian entered that prison cell, not only did he lack any nervousness as a newcomer, he even showed off brazenly, which inevitably made the nearby gladiators unhappy with his behavior.

There wasn’t much to say—usually, in any new place, newcomers might get bullied by the ’old hands.’ And with Zhou Tian’s behavior at that time, several gladiators who were displeased with his actions had already decided they would definitely teach Zhou Tian a lesson that day.
