"I wonder if you two are too confident in yourselves."

"Instead of thinking about unrealistic things, it's better to focus on strict practice in the future."

"You must remember that you've now entered the 200th floor, and the opponents you encounter are all Nen users. If you don't have enough control over Nen, your life could be in danger!"

Wing scolded them with a very serious expression.

Having excellent talent is indeed a good thing, but being too ambitious can turn it into a bad thing.

Wing naturally didn't want Gon and Killua to become reckless, and he decided in his heart to train them strictly to prevent them from taking the wrong path.

Just like his attitude toward Gon, Ethan didn't pay attention to the situation of Gon and Killua in the Sky Arena, focusing entirely on his training instead.

Of course, he would occasionally go out with Lisa and Mia to relax.

After all, people aren't machines; they still need to adjust themselves appropriately.

On such days, the time for the Host Challenge arrived unknowingly.

Facing a major competition like the Host Challenge, after a month of publicity in the Sky Arena, it naturally attracted countless people to watch.

Especially in the 'charity gambling,' the accumulated amount had reached astronomical figures.

"This time, the Host Challenge is unlike before. I heard the challenger has defeated a host before. This match will definitely be very exciting."

"The odds this time are interesting. In the past, the odds for challengers were higher. Why are the odds for the host higher this time?"

"Hurry and get ready; the match is about to start."

The spacious venue was filled with all kinds of people. While waiting for the match to start, you could constantly see familiar or unfamiliar people chatting enthusiastically.

This included Gon, Killua, Wing, Zooci, and his team.

"I heard that Ethan defeated the host before, but I don't know what kind of strength Ethan is using to challenge the host now."

"He must be very powerful; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to become a host."

"I wonder when I'll win ten matches and be qualified to challenge the host."

"As long as you train strictly according to the practice plan I've prepared for you, you'll get there sooner or later."

After finding their seats and sitting down, Gon and his group looked expectantly towards the central arena while chatting more and more enthusiastically.

"Huh?!"

Not far from Gon and his group, Lisa, who had just sat down, casually glanced around and happened to see Gon and Killua sitting together and chatting. She couldn't help but let out a quiet exclamation in surprise.

Because Ethan had no intention of making friends, he never mentioned meeting Gon and Killua to Lisa.

Now that Lisa suddenly saw Gon and Killua, she was naturally surprised.

"What's wrong, do you know these people?" Mia, who was sitting next to Lisa, was also curious and looked at Gon and his group.

"The kid with the spiky hair and the white hair were candidates who took the Hunter exam together with Ethan. I didn't expect the two of them to be here," Lisa explained briefly.

"They're taking the Hunter exam at such a young age?" Mia was a little surprised.

"Yes, not only did he participate, but the kid with the spiky hair also passed the exam. The backgrounds of these two kids are not simple."

Thinking that the origins of Gon and Killua were not simple, Lisa explained to Mia and also mentioned Ethan's attitude toward Gon.

"I see..."

Mia was thoughtful after listening and then stopped paying attention to these matters, focusing instead on the upcoming match with Lisa.

Knowing Ethan's attitude, she naturally followed his lead.

In the arena at the center of the venue.

When the time for the match arrived, the commentator announced the players' entrance with high spirits.

Ethan, who had been waiting at the entrance, naturally strode out.

"Ethan!!!"

"Ah! Master Ethan appears!"

"Must win, must win, must win!"

"..."

When Ethan appeared, the venue burst into loud cheers without any suspense.

Compared to when he first returned to the Sky Arena, Ethan's reputation was obviously greater now. Many people who came to watch the match did so because of him.

Of course, at the entrance on the other side, when someone else walked out, they were also greeted with loud cheers.

"It's Lord Mandel, Mandel will win!!"

"I must win. I have put all my wealth on you, Mandel!"

"Come on, Mandel!"

"...!"

This Host Challenge was different from previous ones.

In previous Host Challenges, the challenger was the one with the lowest odds.

But because Ethan had a record of defeating Christina, the host named Mandel now had higher odds than the challenger Ethan.

This naturally caused many people who wanted to bet on an upset to place their bets on Mandel.

As he walked toward the ring, Ethan turned his head and looked at the entrance on the other side.

What caught his eye was a very burly man with a bare upper body and a pair of white pants.

With hair as thick as steel needles and a naked upper body, not only could you see strong muscles, but you could also see many scars.

Mandel, the host of the 235th floor of Sky Arena....

When Ethan looked at Mandel, information about him also flashed in his mind.

After a month of publicity, it was naturally impossible for Ethan not to gather intelligence about his opponent.

Similarly, he also believed that the other party must have gathered information about him.

"Come on, as long as you win this match, you can get rewards again."

There was no change on his face. Ethan controlled his emotions very well. He just glanced casually and then looked away.

And just when he withdrew his gaze, Mandel on the other side seemed to sense Ethan's gaze, turning his head to glance at Ethan, with deep vigilance in his eyes.
