The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth twitched, and he was slightly embarrassed.
Never had he imagined that the grade six spirit weapon glove of the Vice Dean of the Dragon and Phoenix Academy, Chi Ming, was actually refined by Luo Rong, the Guild Master of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Weapons Craftsmen Guild.
"Master, you're refining a grade four spirit weapon for Chi Ming?"
Luo Rong took a deep breath, and his eyes contained slight envy mixed within.
Duan Lingtian nodded. "Yes, I owe him a favor."
A favor!
Luo Rong came to a sudden understanding.
Even though he was curious about what favor Duan Lingtian owed Chi Ming.
But he knew what he should ask and what he shouldn't ask.
"Let's begin."
Duan Lingtian nodded to Luo Rong, then he started to make his move.
Profound weapon refinement techniques were easily grasped at his fingertips …
As if he had the help of the gods.
For the sake of taking care of Luo Rong, he intentionally slowed down his speed.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian withdrew a pile of materials, including the seven materials that Chi Ming had found for him.
"This is 1,000 Year Mysterious Ice? This is 10,000 Year Tortoiseshell? This is … "
As the Guild Master of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Weapons Craftsmen Guild, Luo Rong's discerning gaze was unique, and he quickly recognized these rare materials.
"Looks like that old fellow Chi Ming took great pains for the sake of this grade four spirit weapon!"
Luo Rong thought in his heart.
Luo Rong quickly returned to his senses, and he seriously watched Duan Lingtian refine the weapon.
After spending an entire morning, Duan Lingtian finally finished refining the grade four spirit weapon glove that he promised Chi Ming.
Whoosh!
When Duan Lingtian wore the glove, his Origin Energy raged.
In the sky, 4,800 lifelike ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form.
"It's another 60% amplification!"
Luo Rong's pupils constricted when he saw this scene.
Duan Lingtian nodded with satisfaction, as he'd finally completed his promise to Chi Ming.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian put away the glove and wore a light azure ring on his right index finger …
This wasn't a Spatial Ring.
It was a grade four spirit weapon that Duan Lingtian had refined for himself.
Suddenly.
Wind Thunder Finger!
Duan Lingtian raised his hand and condensed the Tempest Finger Force. It pierced through the window of the third floor and shot out into the void outside.
Above his head, 5,800 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form.
This time, the reason he was able to possess the strength of 1,000 ancient mammoths more than before was because Duan Lingtian had utilized the Half-step Advanced Wind Force and Half-step Advanced Lightning Force at the same time.
"This is an offensive spiritual artifact?"
Luo Rong was dumbfounded.
Just now, when Duan Lingtian was refining this ring, he saw it clearly.
He thought it was just a Spatial Ring.
Unexpectedly, it was an offensive Spirit Weapon. Moreover, it was a grade four offensive Spirit Weapon with a 60% boost!
Duan Lingtian rotated the cyan ring on his finger with satisfaction and a smile appeared on his face.
For the entire afternoon, Duan Lingtian continued to guide Luo Rong on the path of refining.
Compared to before, Luo Rong's improvement was at a tremendous pace.
At dusk, Luo Rong reluctantly sent Duan Lingtian to the stairway on the third floor. "Master, take care."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
He left the Alchemist Guild and returned to the Dragon and Phoenix Academy.
In the following days, besides cultivating in the Dragon and Phoenix Academy, Duan Lingtian would leave the Alchemist Guild every month.
Then he would head to the Alchemist Guild to guide Luo Rong in the Dao of Weapons Refinement …
The remaining time was practically spent on the various training assignments issued by the Dragon and Phoenix Academy.
Duan Lingtian obtained first place every single time in the training assignments issued by the Dragon and Phoenix Academy!
But unfortunately, the training assignments issued by the Dragon and Phoenix Academy later on didn't have a reward like the Void Refining Fruit.
The points Duan Lingtian accumulated were all exchanged for various materials.
As for cultivation methods, martial skills, spirit weapons, and medicinal pills, he utterly didn't need them.
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, only half a month remained before the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Genius Competition.
Half a month later, the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Genius Competition would begin.
At that time, the people that were ranked in the top five of the Genius Competition would obtain the qualifications to head to the Darkstone Empire's Imperial City to compete with the young geniuses of the Empire and the various Imperial Kingdoms.
If one was able to stand out in the Darkstone Empire, then one would be able to head to the Darkhan Dynasty and compete for the qualifications to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties!
There was a vast ground in the north of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Imperial City.
This ground was like a sunken gorge.
In the surroundings of the gorge were rows of orderly seats, and they were precisely the spectating area.
Presently, the spectating area was filled with people, and people surged about.
On the flat ground of the gorge was an enormous specially made iron cage that enveloped the entire gorge within it.
Two figures could be faintly seen flickering within the iron cage.
Presently, there were three figures on the stairway that led outside the spectating area.
"Cage Battle Arena?"
The brows of the violet clothed young man raised. "What's so special about this Cage Battle Arena?"
"Squeak squeak ~"
Presently, the little gold mouse that stood on the violet clothed young man's shoulder looked at the other two people with interest.
Amongst these two people, one carried a sheathed sword on his back, and the other was handsome and extraordinary.
The two of them had a common point.
Both of them were young men that were a little over 30.
"Duan Lingtian, the Cage Battle Arena is a place that's filled with hot blood and is able to foster courage."
The young man that carried a sheathed sword on his back lightly smiled.
"Exactly! I believe that you'll like that place. "
The handsome and extraordinary young man nodded.
"Both of you are still keeping me in suspense?"
The violet clothed young man was precisely Duan Lingtian.
Today, he was forcefully dragged here by the Crazy Young Master, Luo Zhan, and the Sword Young Master, Chen Shao Shuai.
"Duan Lingtian, you'll naturally know what sort of place the Cage Battle Arena is once you ascend the highest stairway."
Luo Zhan smiled.
Duan Lingtian nodded, and the movements of his feet sped up slightly.
At this moment, the curiosity in his heart was successfully aroused by Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai.
Cage Battle Arena!
Exactly what sort of place would it be?
The depths of Duan Lingtian's gaze were filled with anticipation.
He hadn't even stepped onto the highest stairway when numerous frenzied voices entered into Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian who was filled with curiosity had finally ascended to the highest step of the stairway.
With a single glance, he saw it.
Presently, there were countless figures that were either sitting or standing with their backs facing him.
Whereas these people were currently looking ahead, and many of them were even excited to the point of standing up from their seats and shouting loudly without end.
"Kill him!"
"Kill him!"
…
The frenzied voices practically infected Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian raised his head and looked over.
Only now did he notice that what appeared before his eyes was a large ring shaped circle, and its area was extremely vast.
Whereas within this large circle, there were many gaps, and there were numerous stairways there, and one could follow these stairways to walk in.
Whereas at the two sides of these stairways were boundless spectating areas.
The scene before his eyes caused Duan Lingtian to be unable to help but recall the Bullfighting Arena in Spain in his previous life …
But the Bullfighting Arena was far less bustling than this place.
"This is the Cage Battle Arena."
Luo Zhan's voice sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears.
Presently, Luo Zhan was pointing at the boundless sea of people before him as he introduced it to Duan Lingtian with a light smile.
"So many people."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be astounded.
There were probably at least a few tens of thousands of people in the spectating area before him.
Even if it was the most bustling trade market in the Imperial City, Duan Lingtian wasn't able to see such a magnificent scene.
"I've been in the Imperial City for almost a year, yet I actually don't know of such a place."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Of course, this was also related to him directly heading to the Weapons Craftsmen Guild to guide Luo Rong in the Dao of Weapons Refinement every month when he left the academy.
Luo Rong had practically occupied the only time he could leave the Dragon and Phoenix Academy every month.
Otherwise, the entire Azure Forest Imperial City would have been explored by him long ago.
It wouldn't be to the extent that he didn't know of the existence of the Cage Battle Arena.
"Hehe … This Cage Battle Arena is so bustling every day."
Chen Shao Shuai's brows raised as he suggested. "Let's go in and find a seat."
Subsequently, under Chen Shao Shuai's lead, Duan Lingtian and Luo Zhan followed closely behind.
After almost a year of time, Duan Lingtian and Crazy Young Master, Luo Zhan, had become friends.
As for Sword Young Master, Chen Shao Shuai, he had a straightforward character. Coupled with him cutting off his relationship with the Origin Convergence Sect, he was extremely compatible with Duan Lingtian's temper.
So he could be considered to be Duan Lingtian's friend now.
Duan Lingtian had only gotten to know these two friends during the almost a year he'd been in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
Duan Lingtian's group of three walked down the stairway between the spectating area.
Meanwhile, Duan Lingtian clearly saw the scene before him.
"What a large iron cage!"
The enormous iron cage that covered the entire spacious arena before him caused Duan Lingtian to be shocked.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian saw the man and beast fighting within the enormous iron cage …
The man and beast were in a horrifying battle, and the man had already had an arm torn off.
However, he still resisted with all his might.
"Cage Battle Arena, Cage Battle … So that's how it is."
Now, Duan Lingtian could be considered to have completely understood the meaning of the words' Cage Battle Arena. '
"Earlier, I thought this place was like the bullfighting arena of Spain in my previous life … Now it would seem that it's even more like the colosseum of ancient Rome in my previous life."
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart, and his gaze descended onto the crowd of spectators in the spectating area.
"Whereas these people are like the nobles of ancient Rome, and they watch to their heart's content as slaves and wild beasts fight in the colosseum … Nobles would be excited so long as they see blood, just like these people are now."
Duan Lingtian sighed slightly with emotion.
Even though he'd merged into this world, it was still slightly difficult for him to adapt to the slave system.
After all, the earth he lived on in his previous life was a world that advocated equality.
However, he wasn't unfamiliar with the slaves of this world.
That year, Xiong Quan was the Guardian of the Boundless Sect and was pursued by the Black Fiend Sect, causing him to be inflicted with the Origin Sealing Gu, causing his Origin Energy to be completely sealed.
He was captured and branded with the brand of a slave, becoming a slave.
Later on, Xiong Quan was rescued by Duan Lingtian and recovered his Origin Energy, becoming Duan Lingtian's follower.
Even though Xiong Quan was a slave, Duan Lingtian had never taken him to be a slave and gave him sufficient respect.
This was also the reason why Xiong Quan treated Duan Lingtian sincerely.
"Xiong Quan …"
