Although the flame could help Chen Zhou cover his private parts, he was still worried. What if he suddenly lost control of the flame, or was seriously injured and unable to use it? Wouldn't he then appear naked in front of others?

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was being a scoundrel because he lost.

As Chen Zhou thought about this, he became increasingly uneasy.

However, Chen Zhou then realized that things were not so simple. The rootless fire had already perfectly merged with Chen Zhou, so Chen Zhou could control the flame at any time and naturally did not need to worry about the flame disappearing.

Comforting himself in this way, Chen Zhou gradually accepted the reality. At worst, he could just find someone to duel with after entering the burning arena and then steal their clothes.

Thinking this, Chen Zhou quickened his pace, having a new goal in mind: to steal a set of clothes.

"Look, look! Who is that person covered in flames?"

"I've never seen this person before, so what's with the flames?"

"I don't know, I saw him walk out of the fire with my own eyes."

"What? Someone actually dared to enter the fire? And even managed to come out safely?" The man clearly didn't believe it.

"I saw it with my own eyes! The fire is a symbol of light in Shanghai. When the fire is lit, the entire city is illuminated, so we call the fire the sun of Shanghai. That person was able to enter the sun and come out alive. He's definitely not someone to mess with! It seems the incineration site has gained another troublesome person!"

"Yes, yes! He went in the direction of the burning site. Let's go! Let's follow him and see!"

"good!"

...........

Chen Zhou walked in the darkness, completely unaware that someone was following him. He was intently focused on the large building in the distance—the burning site. A strange excitement welled up inside him.

Since falling into the demonic path, Chen Zhou, who used to dislike nothing more than bloodshed, now finds himself somewhat envious of such a life. He can't quite explain why; perhaps this is the pitiful aspect of falling into the demonic path.

Without saying a word, Chen Zhou quickly found the entrance to the burning site and plunged inside.

From the outside, the buildings in the incineration field looked similar in materials to other buildings, and were incredibly dark and dilapidated. However, once Chen Zhou entered, he realized he was completely wrong. The world inside the incineration field was entirely different from the outside world.

There were many kinds of light inside, and Chen Zhou could even find colors of all colors. Moreover, many places inside were filled with precious reflective stones, and Chen Zhou could even find quite a few diamonds, making the place extremely bright. Chen Zhou's first impression upon entering was that the place was very chaotic.

When Chen Zhou first entered, a huge circular cabinet appeared before him, with a courtier sitting in the middle of it.

Chen Zhou was able to tell that she was a courtier entirely because of her clothes. He had seen the clothes of the courtier who had guided him before, and they were exactly the same as those of the person in front of him.

Moreover, upon closer inspection of the woman's appearance, Chen Zhou even felt that the two looked remarkably alike.

They even look as if they were carved from the same mold.

"I want to enter the burning chamber," Chen Zhou said simply to the attendant. The huge circular cabinet blocked Chen Zhou's way, so Chen Zhou had to ask the attendant if he wanted to pass.

Upon hearing Chen Zhou's words, the courtier immediately replied, "Name."

Chen Zhou answered honestly, "Chen Zhou."

"Chen Zhou, Level 1 Magician, permitted to enter. Automatically assigned to the tenth level of the Magician tier." The attendant's cold voice rang out, and Chen Zhou immediately saw the attendant hand him a token. Chen Zhou promptly accepted the token.

"This is your Burning Ground Token; it will automatically accumulate your battle record," the courtier said in a cold voice.

"Killing others and seizing their tokens will add their battle achievements to your own token achievements," the attendant continued, then immediately returned to the state Chen Zhou had first seen when he stood motionless in the spot.

Chen Zhou nodded and carefully put away the token. Chen Zhou was now completely naked, and even the map of Shanghai that the courtier had given him was burned.

So Chen Zhou doesn't know where the token is now.

"Do you need combat armor?" the attendant asked immediately upon seeing Chen Zhou's awkward situation.

"Do you need magic coins?" Chen Zhou asked immediately.

"Your token contains 0 magic coins, so you can purchase on credit," the attendant said slowly.

"How do I get credit?" Chen Zhou asked immediately. He had originally thought that the magic coins were currency that could be held in one's hand, but he did not expect that they were virtual currency that could be stored in the token.

"You now possess a Magician's Token, which allows you to purchase 100 Magic Coins on credit, and a set of combat armor costs exactly 100 Magic Coins. The combat armor is waterproof and fireproof. It's very useful," the attendant continued.

Chen Zhou nodded coldly. What he needed right now was combat armor, so he immediately said, "Buy it."

Upon hearing the two words Chen Zhou uttered, the system seemed to recognize them immediately. Soon, a suit of armor appeared in front of Chen Zhou, who immediately dissipated the flames on his body and put on the armor.

After getting dressed, Chen Zhou picked up the token and was surprised to find lines of text on it.
