Legend of Shi’En - C82

Shi En and the rest were very clear about the true intentions of the three-day gambling feast that was held in Underground Fighting Ground.

This time’s grand gamble not only required him to amass large sums of money, but also resulted in the Dazun organization secretly joining hands with the External Devil Sect to disgrace the reputation of the group that was defending the External Devil. It also caused Li Tianwang to become the target of everyone’s Great Ming Dynasty.

This move was indeed vicious enough!

Li Tianwang’s Dashun organization could only be said to be in a passive position. This new generation King Jingjiang was cunning, cunning, and strong. Li Tianwang, who only knew how to switch between toothpicks, was not his opponent.

After the middle-aged man finished his speech, he announced that the grand gambling feast had officially begun.

Cheers erupted from the audience again.

He also ordered the Steward behind him to read out the details of the gamble and the relevant rules.

The middle-aged uncle turned around and sat on the instructor’s chair on the Vip Desk. His subordinates quickly offered him a cup of hot tea while the experts stood behind him, looking all the more noble and dignified.

The members of the External Devil Group watched as the middle-aged uncle sipped his tea with a face full of joy. They didn’t doubt that before long, Yingtian Fu would make a compromise with the prince due to the public’s will, and at that time, the newly ascended Duke would begin his grand plan. At that time, the internal strife between the Duke and the Emperor of The Ming Dynasty would never cease, and the External Devil Group, which was hiding behind him, would become the true hegemon. Thinking about it here, the few consuls of the External Devil Group looked at the middle-aged man with contempt.

Steward walked to the front of the Vip Desk, and enthusiastically said to the people below the stage: “This three-day gamble is to help the participants excavate the pillars of talent for the Great Ming Dynasty. Tonight, there are also many newcomers from various sects who are here, and can also challenge the participants of my Underground Fighting Ground.

As he said that, Steward raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side. Everyone turned to look and saw a huge pig-headed money canister appearing in front of them out of thin air. This money canister was still transparent, and everyone could see that it was filled with countless gold and silver treasures as well as priceless gems.

The Steward was very satisfied with their reactions, and continued to speak: “Ever since the Underground Fighting Ground was established, all of the wealth obtained has been stored in this bottle, and the final victor participating in the competition will receive half of the prize money in the jar.”

This action immediately caused the eyes of the audience to turn red with envy.

“Wow, with so much money, I can’t spend all of it in a few lifetimes!”

“Ha, how wonderful. I am one of the top ten martial artists. This time, I will also come to the meeting.”

“This prince is too generous, this is all the income from the Underground Fighting Ground in recent years.”

Steward once again stated that the age of the participants in this year’s grand gambling feast was also limited. The age of the participants must not exceed thirty-five, and the goal was to unearth new members. Each level’s arena had their own attribute patterns. Standing by the Underground Fighting Ground participants on the stage, if one accepted ten people in a row without losing, one would be able to compete for the second day’s Fighting Competition s. If one lost, the winner would become the arena master, and the other ten people would continue to challenge until the winner.

Then, the Steward emphasized that there were no rules in Fighting Ground and could be used any means. Only by admitting defeat on stage or knocking the opponent out of the stage could one be considered victorious.

At the end, the Steward said with an excited tone: “The final winner will not only obtain half of the Underground Fighting Ground’s recent wealth, but will also have this promise from the King Jingjiang himself. Of course it won’t go against the principles of the martial arts world and will be harmful to the Great Ming Dynasty.

The audience burst into excited shouts again. The gong sounded on the stage, and the arena battle officially began.

Under the guidance of the staff members, Shi En entered the first level of the arena. The moment he stepped into the stage, Shi En heard the sound of a machine operating. The originally empty area of the stage was suddenly covered by a metal net that could be seen with the naked eye.

Steward explained to the people present. This was the first stage’s special electric net attribute. During a fight, the contestant had to be careful not to touch the electric net or else he would be electrocuted. This undoubtedly made the situation more difficult for the contestant.

After a short while, a thirty year old man jumped off the stage.

The Steward on top of the Vip Desk said loudly: “Friends who have come up for challenges, please take the initiative to state your name.”

“I am Gao Niu, and have heard that Wang Dachui is the strongest participant in Underground Fighting Ground, with two meteor hammers in his hands, ordinary people would not be able to get close, so I specially came here from my hometown just to seek guidance.”

Just as his voice fell, a skinny youngster in his twenties descended from the sky, firmly landing on the stage. He said with a sinister look on his face: “Brother Gao, please step back first, Wang Dachui and I have an irreconcilable feud, we will definitely kill this person tonight.”

After the sturdy man heard this, he was slightly displeased: “On what basis do you want to take revenge by letting me back down? Can’t you wait for me to spar with Wang Dachui before coming up on stage?”

When the young man heard this, he did not expect the sturdy man to not know how to appreciate favors. In fact, he did not have any deep grudges with Wang Dachui, he had only received an invitation from some powerful force for a large sum, to come poison Wang Dachui to kill him and take his life.

“Oh, so you won’t give in?”

The brawny guy had a violent temper. He was famous for not taking advantage of the situation. “If you don’t want me to, then you should pay attention to the first come first serve.”

The two of them disregarded Shi En and started fighting on the stage. After dozens of moves, the skinny young man had the upper hand. He shot out a few hidden weapons from his hands, and attacked Gao Niu. Gao Niu, in order to avoid the hidden weapons, actually received a continuous kick from the young man, and just as Gao Niu was about to touch the electric net, a figure suddenly appeared behind Gao Niu and easily caught him.

“Hey, didn’t you guys want to challenge me? Why are they all fighting? ”

After placing Gao Niu back onto the stage, Shi En took out the wooden sword from his waist. He looked at the young man, then turned and looked at the pale Gao Niu.

Just as Shi En’s voice fell, the audience saw an afterimage flash past, and when they focused their eyes, they saw that it was the young man, who was wielding an obviously poisonous dagger. Just as the dagger was about to touch Shi En’s neck, they heard a “hong” sound, followed by a violent “crackling” sound mixed with a miserable cry.

Everyone looked towards the scream, they were all dumbstruck, only to see a man who looked like he had been struck by lightning, lying on the ground beside the iron net, his body was covered in black eyes, his face was like charcoal, and the dagger in his hand made everyone realize that he was the young man from just now.

What was going on? The same sentence simultaneously popped in everyone’s head.

“Hey hey hey, you should be calling me ‘I win’ right?” Shi En’s left hand held onto the wooden sword, and lazily knocked on the stage, he was still staring at Gao Niu, and said: “There are still nine left, do you want to continue fighting me, or admit defeat?”

At this moment, raging waves were raging in the depths of Gao Niu’s heart. He was the closest, and was able to see everything that had happened clearly. He immediately admitted defeat.

The audience, who did not know what had really happened, protested. They did not know what had happened to the three people in the arena.

The middle-aged man on the Vip Desk was discussing with a few other members of the ‘External Devil’ group earlier, and were not paying any attention to the matters on the stage. At this time, he noticed the restlessness in the audience and was slightly displeased, he called for the supervisor to go over and ask about it, and after frowning slightly, he walked over to the ‘Wang Dachui’ below the stage.

Steward lowered his head and answered, he then had his subordinate activate four huge screens set up in the east, south, west and north. Originally, he had wanted to use all of these to make use of the finals on the final day. However, after being stirred up by “Wang Dachui”, he had no choice but to come out early to take a photo.

Steward came to the front of the stage, and said: “Calm down everyone. When our staff member returns what happened on the stage back to the four screens, it will be clear who won.”

In less than half a moment, the four screens flashed with a bright light, and the images from the arena appeared on the screen. A bear hug caught Gao Niu and placed him on the stage. It was probably because of the resentment in the young man’s heart, who was hindered by Shi En that caused this new hatred was added onto the old hatred, becoming even more ruthless. He took out a dagger and took advantage of the time when “Wang Dachui” was conversing with Gao Niu, intending to kill “Wang Dachui”.

Once again, the scene shocked everyone present. Although everyone knew that ‘Wang Dachui’ was not injured, they all broke out in a cold sweat because of him.

And in that moment of life and death, they only saw “Wang Dachui” not even turning his head to the ground, he directly raised the wooden sword in his left hand, and easily swept the youth away, and then what caused everyone to be even more shocked was, “Wang Dachui” actually stomped on the ground and flew, the wooden sword in his left hand hacking at the youth who was floating in the air, towards the electric net.

When the giant screen stopped at this scene, the audience first went silent for three seconds, and then erupted in cheers and applause.

The Steward stared at the “Wang Dachui” on the stage, his heart filled with suspicion, but he still announced in a loud voice: “Underground Fighting Ground, Wang Dachui has won!”

Shi En leisurely walked to the youth’s side and looked down at him. At this time, the Underground Fighting Ground staff member opened a small door in the electric net, and was preparing to bring out the youth who had been injured by lightning. Shi En shook his head, and muttered to himself: “Sigh, my blood is not that easy to take.”
