Chapter 622
“A man and a woman? Team Phoenix? What a horrible name!” Thor said while rolling his eyes.
“It is the truth. They are so strong that not even the Grandmaster wants to get on their bad side any longer! He even let them walk away whenever they wanted as he was afraid they would destroy the planet. But the championship took a downfall after they left as the audiences didn’t get excited at all. It wasn’t until the current champion comes to Sakaar that the audiences gone wild again.” Korg said indifferently. Miek on the side was also dancing in excitement.
Thor frowned as he couldn’t believe such claims. He thought that it was just an overly exaggerated story and he was convinced that he would win against any of them if he just had his hammer with him right now!
“Wait a second, didn’t you say everyone who had participated in the championship has died? So, what is the deal with you two?” Thor asked curiously.
“We are also participating, but we didn’t fight the champion. We only participated in some small fight, that’s all.” Korg said indifferently. “Are you going to join the championship as well?” Korg asked curiously.
“Yes, I will participate and kill that champion before I leave this place!” Thor said confidently. But unfortunately for Thor, he still didn’t know the identity of this champion just yet!
“Well, Doug said the same thing before, but he ended up dead! I wish you luck, Doug II,” Korg said indifferently.

At the same time, the Dark Battleship successfully arrived at Sakaar! Because the Dark Battleship’s stealth tech couldn’t be used in the wormhole, Dio knew that the Grandmaster would soon be notified about his arrival. But before that, he still had to take care of the vulture scrapper that came his way!
Clearly, these people would think that a magnificent battleship like Dark Battleship would yield a good amount of money! “This scene just never gets old!” Dio said as he smiled at the scrappers that came in hordes. “Get them out of my sight!” Dio ordered the Dark Elf. The Dark Battleship began firing without using any big weapons as they were only ordered to kill the scrapper.
In less than 30 seconds, hundreds of scrappers were killed, and blood flooded the scrap-filled land. After seeing the horrifying scene, the scrappers who arrived late were clearly stunned by the scene before them and immediately escaped while they could!
Dio sighed and ordered the dark elf to activate the stealth mode before walking out of the Dark Battleship towards the Grandmaster’s palace. He still remembered where it was, so he didn’t have any trouble finding it. Along the way, he looked around Sakaar but didn’t spot any change at all. But clearly, Grandmaster must have picked a new champion in his little game.
“Hulk came to this planet by accident. If I can’t find Thor here, I will just bring back the Hulk with me!” Dio said as he stared at Hulk’s statue. But he knew that bringing back the Hulk would require some persuasion because, as far as he knew, the Hulk left the Earth willingly.
Dio felt that he was making a mistake by not taking Mantis on this cruise. Although he was confident that he could bring back the Hulk with force, it wouldn’t be ideal to do that if he needed the Hulk’s help later on!
As soon as he arrived in front of Grandmaster’s palace, he called the soldiers that stood guard nearby to come over.
“Go to the Grandmaster and tell him that he has a visitor!” Dio said casually.
“What? Who are you, and why did you want to meet with the Grandmaster!” The guard said stoically, but Dio immediately frowned and looked at the guard coldly. He released a bit of his killing intent, and the guards seemed to shiver as they felt it on their skin. The guard immediately nodded his head and contacted Topaz immediately.
Soon after, a projection of a burly female soldier appeared in front of the guard. “Is this the man that wants to meet with the Grandmaster?” Topaz said indifferently.
“Long time no see, Topaz! It seems your frame has gotten bigger yet again.” Dio casually said as he looked at Topaz in the eyes.
“You! Why are you here!” Topaz said as she was surprised to see Dio again. She didn’t expect Dio would ever return to Sakaar. She wondered if Dio really didn’t feel any fear as he confronted the Grandmaster?
“Just tell the Grandmaster that I am here to play his little game once more! But if he doesn’t want me here, I can leave!” Dio said casually. Topaz knew that she was at the end of her wits here, so she had to inform the Grandmaster right away.
“Guide this VIP guest to the top right away! Give him everything he needs. If you are confused just contact me again!” Topaz said annoyedly.
“Right away, Lady Topaz!” The guard said hesitantly.
Dio didn’t want to waste his time talking to the guards, so he waved his hands and left it to the guards to lead the way. The guards should immediately bring him to where he needed to be, so he didn’t have to waste time. All he needed was an audience with the Grandmaster as soon as possible.
On the other hand, the Grandmaster was busy promoting his new championship tournament. But after receiving the report from Topaz, he immediately put aside his work and rushed over to the lounge with gleaming eyes.
