Legend of Shi’En - C99
In the resting area, the white face of the Iron Flute was tightly holding onto the Iron Flute in its hands, as it stared at Bai Shatang who was in the medical treatment area in stage number 3.
Tonight’s Underground Fighting Ground s were set up with four gigantic screens on each stage, making it easier for the spectators to watch the battles on the stage. Steward stood on top of the Vip Desk and said to the microphone: “Everyone, please take note, please note that the drawing of lots will begin now, and the drawing of lots will begin now …”
Just as more and more people started to notice the green robed scholar who had descended from the sky in the direction of Stage Three, Steward’s loud voice rang out once again.
As long as either party wins the second round, they will be able to advance to the last night’s gambling feast to fight for the title of strongest person and a generous prize.
Hearing Steward’s words, the chaos in the auction gradually quietened down, and all the gamblers in the Underground Fighting Ground turned their gazes back to the Vip Desk.
“We invite the participants who are not from Underground Fighting Ground to go to the staff members outside the resting area to draw lots, and we invite the participants who are not from Underground Fighting Ground to draw lots …”
Following Steward’s loud and clear voice, the participants of the non-Underground Fighting Ground employees in the resting area had already walked over, and with the help of the staff members, they began to draw lots.
“It’s begun, it’s finally begun!”
This time, other than Wang Dachui and Sha Danyuan, there were also three other participants from Underground Fighting Ground, each of them occupying a stage, and furthermore today’s stage attribute was a landmine, so no less than two digits of mines were buried on the ground surface of the stage, once a person stepped on it, they would cause rage and a tapping device to activate, causing their entire body to be paralyzed and they would not be able to move at all, while the gunpowder from the mines would explode, throwing the mines that were buried in the ground up to seven to eight feet, exploding in the air, their killing range would reach a radius of more than a hundred metres, which was extremely powerful.
After receiving their orders, the fifteen contestants all walked towards the staff members in the arena, each and every one of them appearing to be fighting to be the first to arrive.
“White faced boy, you want to draw well for signing!”
The red-faced old man smiled at Situ Erzhao who was walking past, the latter merely nodded his head lightly.
Looking at the fifteen people standing outside the resting area, Shi En realized that not all the people who went to draw lots were from Great Ming Dynasty. There were even some ‘External Demon Beast Human’.
Just then, the sound of footsteps came out from behind Shi En. Turning his head around, it was actually Sha Danyuan who was in stage one.
It was a pity that the latter did not return the greeting, and instead said coldly: “We have met again, I hope that you can hold on until tomorrow night’s finals, so that I can take my revenge for that sword strike.”
With that, he turned around and walked directly towards Ring One.
“It seems like this person does not intend to expose me. It’s alright.”
But even so, Shi En’s worry did not decrease. The moment Sha Danyuan turned around, he suddenly felt an extremely strong killing intent from his opponent. Furthermore, he could smell that Sha Danyuan’s body seemed to have a pungent smell of gunpowder.
This discovery surprised and curious Shi En, but he did not have time to think about it, because the other participants had already accepted the drawing of lots, which meant that the Fighting Competition had officially begun!
The Steward on the Vip Desk saw that the fifteen participants had finished drawing their lots, and started to speak, “Alright, the fifteen participants from all over the world have finished drawing their lots, please follow the lots you have drawn and go to the stage to prepare the Fighting Competition.”
The fifteen participants followed Steward’s instructions and searched for their respective stage. Not long later, three participants arrived at Shi En’s stage number 3.
Looking at the three people who were walking up the stage, Shi En’s first reaction was: Damn it, I might be stuck tonight!
Shi En’s eyes burned with passion as he looked at the three opponents in front of him. The one on the far left was a Spirit Dao cultivator wearing a purple sun towel and bawdy clothes. When he stood on stage, Shi En immediately felt that his temperament was out of the ordinary, like a crane among a flock of chickens.
The one on the right was tall and slender, wearing a skin-tight vest with an exposed navel. There was a rose on her smooth abdomen, her hair was very short, and a mask covered half of her face. Then, he saw that this woman’s waist was wrapped by a snake-like whip.
What made Shi En shiver the most was the opponent in the middle, who was a ten year old child. He looked very delicate and pretty, with a pair of nimble eyes, making him look very smart.
Shi En could not help but think back to the barren mountain. The Old Bastard Master had once reminded him that in the future, when he went out to travel the martial arts world, he must remember that three types of people were not to be easily offended.
Shi En had asked Old Bastard which three types of people were they?
Old Bastard Master replied. First, it was an outsider, second, a woman, and third, a child. This was a lesson learned from many years of experience in the martial arts world.
Shi En was puzzled at the time, but he did not have any doubts about the Taoist monk here. After all, the Old Bastard had shown him their example, so he had to believe it, but why was this woman and child amongst them?
Old Bastard had explained to Shi En at that time: “According to the Conferred Gods, these three groups of people are not of the left path. Shi En did not understand what he meant, in fact, what he meant was that because these three types of people did not have an innate physical advantage, they would often attack using strange and strange methods, secretly attacking other people, causing them to be shunned by martial artists.
Today, Shi En had met these three people. This caused him to feel extreme sorrow.
The other participants had also found their own stage, and when the Steward saw that the situation was good enough, he said to the call: “Alright, everyone has found your own stage, then I will start to explain the rules, just like last night, you cannot harm the participants’ lives, and also, there is only one victor in each stage, until the other opponents lose their fighting strength, none of them can casually leave the stage, and the violator will leave the stage.”
When Shi En heard the rules announced by the Steward, he nodded and muttered to himself: “Looks like today is rather relaxed, it’s only a one versus three. However, my luck is still not good.
“Alright, I formally announce that the second night’s gambling feast, the Fighting Competition, has begun!”
The moment Steward began, the contestants on the five stages immediately started fighting, and the blood in the audience started boiling as they roared crazily.
On Stage 2, Situ Erzhao took the initiative to attack his opponent. He knew how important this battle was to him, so he used all of his strength to fight evenly with his opponent.
A huge display screen was set up in the sky above the arena. It enlarged and slowed down the combat skills of both sides, creating a very intense feeling.
Maybe it was because Situ Erzhao’s strength was similar to his opponent’s, but the two sides’ fists were like meat, compared to the other fights on the stage, the fight on the stage was much more interesting.
Cries and cheers belonging to the contestants in arena number two echoed from the audience stands. They supported their contestants and cheered loudly!
“I hope nothing unexpected happens!”
Thirteenth Princess sat in the audience, feeling anxious. As a princess of the Great Ming Dynasty, she had never seen such a violent and bloody Fighting Competition before, so from the bottom of her heart, she hoped that the citizens of the Great Ming Dynasty would win, lose, and the most important thing was that there would be no casualties. It was best to lie to them, but looking at the stubbornness of these participants, it seemed like her wish could not be fulfilled.
“A good chance, that’s it!”
Just as Stage 2 Situ Erzhao was immersed in the intense fighting, Stage 4 Underground Fighting Ground staff member suddenly grasped onto a small mistake from his opponent, stepping closer step by step, forcing his opponent who was wearing a loose white fighting uniform to the side of the stage.
According to the Underground Fighting Ground’s rules, if this participant falls off the stage, he will lose his qualifications to compete.
Just before the Fighting Competition had begun, the employee participant for Fighting Ground No. 4 had made a private agreement with the other three participants that they would fight separately in a one on one battle, and the two who won would then continue with the battle to choose the victor of Stage 4.
In other words, as long as he could successfully push this opponent off the stage, then one competitor would be missing in the fourth ring, and he would be able to hide to the side and recharge his strength, waiting for the other two’s battle to come to an end. Then he would suddenly launch a sneak attack, and with this victory, he would be promoted to the finals tomorrow night!
However, as the saying goes, extreme joy often breeds sorrow. No one would have thought that such a thing would happen to the staff contestants in arena number 4.
He was about to force his opponent off the stage, but he did not expect that at such a critical moment, the staff member would lose his attention and step on the landmine that was buried under the ground. The tap under his feet instantly spread to all the nerves in his body, numbing his body.
Unfortunately, it was not just the employees who fell into the ring. Just as the employee was thrown away, as soon as his feet left the ground, the mines buried under the ground started firing, the mines were thrown seven to eight feet up, exploding in the air, being affected by the explosion, and the opponent who was still immersed in the joy of victory from the counterattack, followed in the employee’s footsteps, flying out of the arena, disqualified from fighting.
“Two contestants have been eliminated in Stage Four. They are Huyan Qing and Xi Men Jin from Underground Fighting Ground.”
As this result was announced, some people in the audience were happy, while others were upset.
“The two contestants in arena number 4 are intensely engaging in the final victor’s battle!”
A voice that did not contain a single trace of emotion once again resounded from above the Vip Desk. The atmosphere at the scene instantly reached an unprecedented high tide.
