Li Yao was certain that the Skeleton Island had trained the gladiators in an unusual way. It was impossible for a normal arena to consume so many high-level strengthening drugs and the meat of demon beasts to build up the strength of the gladiators. It was also impossible for them to instill such dangerous battle experience into them.
However, was Yuchi Ba, the master of the Skeleton Island, involved in the incident, and were there more secrets?
All the questions were waiting for him to figure them out.
After all, as long as he stayed here, he could not only receive the meat of demon beasts, but also absorb more strengthening drugs and battle experience. It did not matter even if he had to stay for a while longer.
After one night, Li Yao caught almost a hundred information balls and absorbed the battle experience inside.
Naturally, the number was much higher than that of other demons.
However, many of the new gladiators in the past were greedy and greedy. They tried to absorb as much battle experience as possible so that they could turn into invincible experts.
Naturally, the staff considered Li Yao to be one of those ignorant fellows, too. They did not bother to remind or stop him.
Getting to the bottom of it, they were just the lowest-level consumables right now. Batches of them would be delivered to the Skeleton Island every day, and most of them would be killed in Nether Spring's first match. Why waste so much effort on them?
At noon the next day …
The new gladiators who had been training crazily without sleep all night knew that a life-and-death moment was drawing near. They were all anxious and anxious. The bull-horned muscular men were so excited that their eyes were bloodshot, and white smoke was spurting out of their nostrils.
The staff brought buckets of strengthening drugs to them again. This time, according to Li Yao's analysis, most of the drugs were used to repair the body. They must be meant to make up for the loss of their energy overnight.
An ear-piercing whistle came from outside, and they were once again brought onto the fully enclosed armored chariots. The chariots were covered with sharp spikes, like a combination of a hedgehog and a tortoise, which was daunting at first glance.
Through the ventilation holes of the tanks, they could vaguely hear deafening roars not far away.
Li Yao knew that it was an arena on the Skeleton Island.
After more than ten minutes of bumpy ride … They were driven off the tanks by the guards of the Skeleton Island, only to find themselves in a weapons room that reeked of blood.
Rusty weapons hung on the walls on both sides. Not only were there bone blades, bone spurs, and acid launchers that the demon clan liked to use, there were also many chainswords, vibration sabers, and high-heat battle axes from the Tian Yuan Realm.
However, these humans had weapons. Most of them were crooked, broken, and stained with blood. They must have been trophies of the demons in previous battles.
Li Yao thought for a moment. He still chose three very short bone spurs and held them in his palms. They were like light and sharp daggers.
"Hua la!"
Right in front of them, the bronze gate engraved with countless scenes of the Demon Clan and Demonic Beasts fighting slowly opened. The first thing that came rolling in like a tidal wave was violent and cruel shouts. Then, the smell of blood smashed in like a hammer.
The sound and smell were like two invisible behemoths, patrolling back and forth in the narrow weapons room.
Li Yao sensed that the calves of many chaotic-blood demons were already shaking.
"Go! Go! "
Behind them were fully-armed guards. The guards of the Skeleton Island, who were holding acid guns, shouted brutally.
Everybody looked at each other in bewilderment, still hesitating. Li Yao was the first to stride out with his head held high.
He narrowed his eyes and casually sized up the arena.
It was more than five hundred meters long and more than three hundred meters wide. It was similar to a standard crystal ball court. The circular auditorium on the two sides was piled up with obsidian. There were no empty seats right now. The place was bustling with activity.
On the west side were the ordinary auditorium, which was occupied by the bizarre-shaped, hideous bronze-blood demons. They were the warriors of the demon clan. The meaning of their life was fighting. Watching and participating in the games was almost their only entertainment.
On the east side, the obsidian was replaced by Gold Flowing Stone, which was embedded with gold threads. The bleachers were replaced by luxurious booths, too. In front of the booths, there were telescopes made of more than ten lenses and decorated with glamorous metals and gems.
On the top of the arena, countless giant eyeballs with wings were floating. The 'Flying Spirit Eyes', which were full of blood streaks and were flying randomly in squeaking noises, could directly transmit the picture to every booth. However, the redundant telescopes were actually meant to reveal the identity of the users — the silver-blood demons who had come to Void Turmoil City to trade slaves and drugs.
Li Yao grinned. An absurd idea suddenly popped up in his head. If he went on a killing spree without bothering about anything, how many silver-blood demons could he take down before he was exhausted?
Very soon, Li Yao's eyes stopped at the center of the VIP seats.
There was a protruding platform there that looked like the tongue of a devil.
It was a seat that was specially reserved for the most distinguished guests.
At this moment, on the gorgeous brocade chair, a brawny man who was more than four meters tall was sitting with his legs crossed. He looked like a rhinoceros wearing light golden armor, and the center of his face was completely occupied by a rhinoceros horn that rose to the sky.
He was Yuchi Ba, the master of the Skeleton Island!
Yuchi Ba was surrounded by almost ten cold-eyed demons. They were all his bodyguards. They were all black-blood demons and chaotic-blood demons who used to be gladiators.
Is Yuchi Ba the leader of the Blade of Chaos?
However, according to the intelligence, he is an out-and-out silver-blood demon born in a noble family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been qualified to establish such an enormous arena!
A silver-blood demon with a pure bloodline has become the leader of the Blade of Chaos? What exactly is he after? "
While he was pondering, glittering electric arcs were suddenly triggered on the bloodstained black ground in front of him. In a series of cracking noises, the electric arcs interweaved like glittering thorns.
Thunder Prison! Thunder Prison! Thunder Prison!
Countless meatballs that were full of holes were floating in every direction of the arena. The meatballs were fluctuating like balloons. At this moment, air currents were spurting out of the holes and congregating into earsplitting noises.
Instigated by the meatballs, the bronze-blood demons sitting on the west side of the arena felt their blood boiling, too. They were roaring crazily.
The silver-blood demons sitting on the east side, on the other hand, were silent and did not bother to pay any attention to them.
Li Yao had heard from Jin Xinyue that the arenas on the Skeleton Island were not as simple as regular venues but had a lot of hidden traps and rune arrays.
The so-called 'Thunder Prison' was a place where electric arcs were released in the entire arena.
Of course, the electric arcs were not very powerful. If they hit the target, they would only be briefly paralyzed.
However, their opponents were mostly demon beasts of the thunder class. They were not scared of the electric arcs at all. They could even absorb the energy of the electric arcs and release them instantly!
Huala!
After all the new gladiators entered the arena, the bronze gate was slowly closed behind them. Some of the workers brought buckets of thick, stinky blood and sprayed them all over their bodies.
The blood contained a lot of stimulant drugs to attract the attention of the demon beasts. Otherwise, the demon beasts might not lunge at the gladiators in packs. They might even attack each other.
Dozens of bronze gates were scattered around the circular arena. Hundreds of cowardly new gladiators were forced out by the guards. Looking at the enthusiastic audience around them, they could not help but panic.
A guard of the Skeleton Island was explaining the rules to them aloud.
The new gladiators were not qualified to enter the arena on their own yet. They did not have any selling points that could attract the audience, either. Therefore, they were not the real protagonists but just minor characters who were responsible for 'warming up' the audience before the protagonists showed up.
Since they were minor characters, nobody expected them to put on a splendid battle. As long as there were enough people, it would be enough for them to enjoy the show.
The rules were simple. The hundreds of new gladiators were all on the south side of the arena. A lot of demon beasts of the thunder class would be released from the north side of the arena.
What they needed to do was to pass through the demon beasts of the thunder class and enter the only bronze gate on the north side. Then, they would be considered to have passed the first round.
Li Yao, however, was well aware of the difficulty of the challenge.
The most critical part was not the battle against the demon beasts of the thunder class on the battlefield where electric arcs were dancing, but how to enter the bronze gate on the north side of the arena.
The gate was very narrow. Only a few demons could pass through it at a time.
Even if a large batch of demons successfully passed the arena, they would be crowded outside of the bronze gate and would not give in to each other. Some would even attack each other. They would have a chance to escape in the beginning, but they would be slaughtered by the demon beasts at the last moment.
Wu!
Long horns echoed around the arena. More than ten bronze gates in the north were pulled open by iron chains as thick as arms. Countless demon beasts walked out in a daze.
Among them, there were 'Thunderous Snakes' that had wings, 'Soul-Splitting Behemoths' that were as tall as hills and had sharp fangs all over their backs. There were also countless other bizarre demon beasts that Li Yao did not know the names of!
Chi!
In the sky above the arena, invisible nets were released to prevent these violent giant beasts from jumping onto the spectator seats.
However, there was an unwritten rule for the demon race when it came to appreciating the gladiators, which was that the auditorium contained a certain degree of danger in the first place. Every spectator had to be prepared to fight the demon beasts or the gladiators.
For the demon race, it was a very exciting pleasure, too.
The demon beasts might have been drugged with certain anesthetic drugs, which was why they were at the mercy of the human beings. However, the smell of blood on the gladiators had awakened the desire to kill inside their bodies. Shaking their heads slightly, the demon beasts roared bloodthirstily and accelerated toward their prey under the boost of the electric arcs!
Hooooo! Hooooo! Hooooo!
