C36 Arena

"What f * cking bad luck …"

In the evening, Liu Yunqi rode Fatty and finally arrived at Wu Shuang City, which was originally not too far away.

Wu Shuang City was the only way to reach the Echo Forest, so arriving here signified that he was slightly closer to the Echo Forest.

Even though an afternoon had passed, he still felt nauseous when he thought about what had happened that morning.

He originally thought that it was a hero saving a beauty, but instead, he saved the couple. The peak of his life disappeared just like that. Although he didn't really care, he still felt disgusted.

Thus, he charged a protection fee to that ugly man on the spot. He didn't expect that the ugly man was actually an iron rooster who was so rich but wasn't even willing to pay a thousand gold coins.

In just one breath, Liu Yunqi had beaten the ugly man into a pig's head to vent the hatred in his heart.

Riding on Fatty, Liu Yunqi slowly passed through the city gate, but realised that all the streets along the way were decorated with lanterns.

He couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. He stopped walking and asked a peddler, "Excuse me, what kind of holiday are you guys having here?"

"Hur Hur Hur. Customer, you have just arrived, right?" The peddler was puzzled.

"That's right, I just entered the city, what's the matter? Did something big happen in your city? "

"Then it's no wonder. Our Mayor is having a wedding in the next few days, so he wants everyone in the city to be happy." The peddler said.

"Oh …" If that's the case, then let's celebrate. The daughter of the City Lord, I presume that elder sister is very beautiful, right? "

"Of course, the daughter of the mayor is as beautiful as a fairy! Half of the people in the empire know who doesn't?" If anyone could marry her, it would be their fortune ~ "The hawker said with a face full of yearning.

"Oh? A beauty that was recognized by half of the empire? "Is she really that beautiful?"

"Of course, everyone knows about that. Not just the country, even the nobles abroad want to marry the daughter of the city lord," the peddler said proudly.

"Hehe, from what you said, I even want to go see that sister. I don't know if that luck will let me see her again."

"You? Let alone you, even I want to meet the daughter of the City Lord. What a pity, someone like us doesn't have the qualifications to meet such a beauty. " The peddler looked at Liu Yunqi and said.

"Hehe, but it's just a thought. Humans need to have a dream. Otherwise, what's the difference between humans and salted fish?" Liu Yunqi laughed awkwardly.

Oh?" I didn't expect you to have such an opinion at such a young age. "Yes, if a person doesn't have a dream, what's the difference between him and a salted fish …

After chatting with the vendor for a while, Liu Yunqi rode on Fatty's back and continued to head towards the city.

As they walked, they suddenly heard loud noises coming from a building not too far away. The building was extremely spacious and was made of gray stone bricks. The entire building was located in the center of the city and had three blood-red words carved on it, "Fighting Arena".

"Arena?"

Curious, Liu Yunqi walked towards the fighting arena.

Just like the spectacular appearance of the arena, the arena was extremely spacious. There was a hundred meter wide arena inside, with a transparent light barrier surrounding it. Two young men were standing on the arena, facing each other.

One of them was wearing a blue robe and the other was wearing a red robe. Due to their outstanding looks, the audience below the stage cheered loudly.

"Lord Wu Mu!"

"Lord Mu Yu ~!"

The spectator stands were five meters high and extended upwards in a ring shape. The top of the arena was filled with people.

At this moment, the spectators were abnormally excited, especially the women, who were shouting even more crazily.

At the highest part of the audience seating, there was an especially obvious seating area. That seating area only covered a quarter of the arena, and only the old man, the middle-aged man, and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl were seated there. Their clothes were luxurious, and there were a few maids and guards by their side.

The elderly man had a head full of white hair, his face glowing with a red glow. He was tall and slim, and wore a cyan long robe. He smiled while looking at the two men on the stage, occasionally nodding in satisfaction.

The middle-aged man had a handsome face. He had a sturdy build and wore a cyan colored robe. From time to time, he would talk to the girl beside him.

The young girl wore a purple dress with a refined and elegant appearance, snow-white skin, and a graceful figure. Her pair of eyes that were as beautiful as the stars were filled with impatience.

On the stage, the blue clothed man Wu Mu looked at the red clothed man Mu Yu and said in a deep voice, "You're still not going to attack? If you don't act now, it will be very dangerous. "

Mu Yu coldly said, "Oh? "Are you that confident?"

However, Wu Mu suddenly moved closer to Mu Yu and whispered, "Brother!" Do you feel the words of those uncles and aunties below the stage? "

"Lord Wu Mu, Lord Mu Yu ~ I want to give birth to your baby ~!"

Mu Yu raised his head to look at the crowd, only to hear a mix of obscenities mixed in with the cheers.

Immediately, the veins on Mu Baimei's forehead began to bulge. He clenched the sword in his hand and gritted his teeth, "Then let's begin."

As soon as he finished speaking, blue qi gushed out of Mu Yu's body and he stabbed his sword towards Wu Mu.

After dodging the long sword that was piercing toward him, the green Dou Qi on Wu Mu's body also wildly surged out. He brandished his sword and slashed at Mu Yu's neck.

Mu Yu's gaze became serious as he withdrew his longsword and placed it in front of himself to protect himself.

"Clang!"

The sound of metal clashing rang out, and the invisible shockwave caused their hair to wildly dance in the air, spreading to the surroundings.

"Clang …"

The battle had only just begun, but the two sides had already entered a white-hot phase. Both sides constantly exchanged attacks and defenses, constantly changing from one another. Their speeds were extremely fast and their moves were thrilling, causing the spectators in the stands to involuntarily hold their breaths.

"Oh ~ It's starting!" It's starting! "

In the audience, Liu Yunqi, who had just sat down, could not help but stand up again.

The fierce battle on the stage made Liu Yunqi's blood boil up faintly.

"I'll be going to the Echo Forest soon, then I'll know exactly how strong I am!" Involuntarily, Liu Yunqi secretly clenched his fists, and thought.

"Bam!"

Liu Yunqi was secretly excited, the two men on stage had already activated their own techniques and were clashing with each other, causing a violent wind to kick up and light to shine, causing the spectators below the stage to exclaim continuously.

In a burst of light, the two clashed with each other. They both retreated three meters, and before they could even stand firmly, they rushed towards each other at the same time.

"Bang!" Bang! "Bam!"

The sounds of collisions continuously sounded, causing Liu Yunqi's blood to boil.

Then, he couldn't help but furrow his brows. "They're not avoiding us. We're both clashing head on. This feels great, but the battle spirit consumption is also huge."

The middle-aged man standing at the highest point of the audience looked down at the two people who were in a deadlock. He nodded his head in satisfaction and asked the elder beside him, "Father, what do you think about the two of them?"

"Hmm, not bad. To have this kind of strength at such a young age." Of the two of them, whoever it is, I have no objections. " The old man stroked his beard as he praised the two people on the stage.

When the middle-aged man saw that the old man had agreed, he turned to the young girl beside him and asked, "Duo'er, what do you think of the two of them?"

"Hmm, not bad, very suitable to be a monkey." The young girl casually said.

"Child, what monkey? "I'm asking you, which one of them do you like?" The middle-aged man didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"I don't like either of them. They're just right for being monkeys." The young girl said.

"What don't you like? Both of them are quite strong, and they both have extraordinary appearances and family backgrounds. What are you unsatisfied with about this? Shuang'er, I'm not forcing you. If you don't make a decision now, it'll be too late ~ I won't be able to help you then! " The middle-aged man frowned and said.

"Father, I don't need you to remind me." The young girl had an impatient expression.

"Then why haven't you decided yet?" The middle-aged man said.

"I don't like either of them."

"Don't like them? Then who do you like? Speak it out, and I'll arrange it for you! "

"I... I... I just don't like them! "Humph!" The girl snorted before she turned her head to the side and said while playing with her temper.

"You … "Hm."

"Bam!"

At this moment, the two people on the stage were already red-eyed. Each of them had brought out their strongest martial skills and were constantly clashing. The wind created by their collisions howled, causing the audience to be dumbstruck.

"Bam!"

With another collision, the two were sent flying at the same time.

Staggering over ten meters away, they panted heavily while glaring at each other. Right now, both of them were in a mess of clothes, and the clothes they wore were torn and tattered. Sweat constantly dripped from their clothes, making them look extremely miserable.

"The victor is about to be decided." Liu Yunqi muttered to himself.

"Hah!"

Wu Mu and Mu Yu shouted at the same time. Each of them infused their remaining Dou Qi into their long swords. In an instant, the swords in their hands lit up and the two of them charged towards each other at the same time.

"Bam!"

Red light and blue light alternated as they flashed. Mu Yu was blown away by the howling of a hurricane. Wu Mu's face was deathly pale as he held his sword on the ground, his body swaying.

More than ten meters away, Mu Yu lay motionless on the ground. Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth as he panted heavily, accompanied by coughing sounds.

"Men, bring that young master down to treat him!" The middle-aged man who was sitting on top shouted. As soon as he finished, someone quickly stepped onto the stage and carried away Mu Yu, who was lying on the ground, for treatment.

"City Lord, since I've achieved victory, then …" Wu Mu was on the verge of collapse as he bowed to the middle-aged man.

The mayor looked at the sky and said, "It's not time yet."

He then looked around at the audience and said, "Is there anyone else who is willing to challenge us?"

"City Lord, isn't this a little unfair? I just fought one match and you're about to start the next one. Then, won't I lose for sure? " Wu Mu said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I will give you time to adjust your condition." Moreover, allow me to remind you that you are currently fighting on the stage and not fighting in a duel, do you understand? " The mayor frowned.

Mu Yu didn't dare to say anything else and sat cross-legged on the ground, beginning to recuperate.

"Is there anyone else who is willing to challenge them? "If there is no one else, then the victor will be this young master." The mayor asked again.

"I want to challenge!"
