Also, in some matches, you won't have as many tanks, and so you might not need as much pen (in these builds, Demon Blade provides the only pen which would typically not be much).
In any case, yes, you can use this for arena, but learning how to build yourself and being able to adapt to each match as needed will be much better for you in the long run.
Devo's is great for the flat pen, but if you want more overall AS in your build (especially since Xbal doesn't have an AS steroid), you can also consider Asi which is pretty well-rounded at this point.
- Death's Toll ( Death's Temper -> Devourer's Gauntlet (or Asi) -> The Executioner -> Qin's Sais -> Odysseus' Bow -> Dominance. This is your non-crit build, has high pen and is based on Qin's for your main DPS.
- Gilded Arrow ( Ornate Arrow) -> Devourer's Gauntlet (or Asi) -> The Executioner -> Qin's Sais -> Dominance -> Envenomed Deathbringer. This build still relies early on Qin's for your main damage source, but late game you grab DB and upgrade to Ornate and you'll have 65% crit chance when Ornate is at full stacks (gold in hand). It allows you to get high pen with both Exe and Dom, but still build into good crit chance.
- Gilded Arrow ( Ornate Arrow) -> Devourer's Gauntlet (or Asi) -> The Executioner -> Demon Blade -> Envenomed Deathbringer -> Qin's Sais or Dominance. This will give you high % pen (85%). Since you're focusing more on crits, you're getting Demon + DB earlier in the build, and finishing up late with either Qin's or Dom as preferred.
