In the middle of the spacious square was a huge arena.
The surface of the arena was painted red, and some parts of it were still wet. It looked like flowing blood, giving off an ominous atmosphere that made people shudder.
Around the arena were hundreds of disciples of the Tri-Mountain Sect. They stood solemnly, giving off a silent pressure.
This was the disadvantage of fighting away from home. Martial arts experts were the most sensitive. With so many malicious gazes, their martial arts would be weakened.
In front of the blood-red arena, there were several armchairs. In the middle sat Meng Tian and a few famous Jianghu elders who had been invited as witnesses.
Luo Sanshan looked at the people of the Mountain Herb Hall, stepped forward, and said loudly, "The grudges of the Jianghu are settled in the Jianghu. Today, our two sects will fight to the death …"
"Ahem!"
Meng Tian coughed and said loudly, "Today, the remnants of the Mountain Herb Gang and the Tri-Mountain Sect will fight in the blood-red arena. Each sect will send ten people to the arena and fight to the death … On the side of the Mountain Herb Gang, Xun Liu must fight. On the side of the Tri-Mountain Sect, the faction leader and elders must fight. Neither side is allowed to ask for outside help. After this fight, if the Mountain Herb Gang wins, the Tri-Mountain Sect will give up Little Mountain City. If the Tri-Mountain Sect wins, the Mountain Herb Gang will never talk about revenge again.
Do you have any objections? "He read it three times. Seeing that neither side objected, he waved his hand and said," Let's begin! "
"It's said that the grudges will be settled after this fight, but in fact, the faction leader and elders and I will have to fight. If only one side is left alive, then we won't be able to fight anymore …"
Chung Shen-soo glanced at Wei Baishu and the others behind him. Suddenly, he smiled and stepped onto the arena.
He had originally planned to fight alone, without Wei Baishu and the others.
After all, it was a tag-team fight. As long as he defeated ten people, the others would be responsible for cheering.
Otherwise, letting the rest of the people fight would just be sending them to their deaths.
He stood quietly on the blood-red arena, calmly watching the people of the Tri-Mountain Sect. His expression did not change.
When Luo Sanshan met his eyes, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
"With such a temperament, he might really become famous in the Jianghu in the future … Unfortunately, he is my enemy!"
With a wave of his hand, the disciples of the Three Mountains Sect dispersed, and a young man in blue slowly walked out.
Seeing him, Wei Baishu's expression changed. Wei Hongyao covered her mouth, her eyes red. "Brother Huo? What happened to you? "
This person was her fiancé, the elite disciple of the Mountain Medicine Gang — Huo Qingtian!
Originally, Wei Hongyao had thought that her fiancé had been lost in Little Mountain City, and had cried a few times over it.
Who would have thought that they would meet again in the mortal world today!
She was like this. When Wei Baishu came to his senses, he was furious. "Thief … How dare you join a thief!"
It was only then that Senior Brother Li and the others realized that Huo Qingtian was alive and well. He had even changed into the uniform of a Three Mountains Sect disciple. Clearly, he had already joined the bandits.
"Everyone, this Huo Qingtian is already a disciple of our sect, and he will serve our sect with his life. Our sect's first match today will be him."
Luo Sanshan looked at the crowd from the Mountain Herb Hall with a proud look on his face.
As long as one was human, there would be a weakness.
When the Mountain Medicine Gang was breached, many of the disciples' families were in the city. How could they escape when they were controlled?
Since they could not escape, it was only natural for them to kneel down and surrender.
In reality, there were only a few people like Wei Baishu who were determined to take revenge. Most of them surrendered.
If they sent out their best fighters to fight the enemy, it did not matter who died.
It would be even better if they could deal a heavy blow to Xun Liuyi's heart.
"Senior Brother Huo, please!"
Chung Shen-soo expressionlessly cupped his fists and bowed.
"Junior Brother Xun, I have no choice … This is the Jianghu!"
Huo Qingtian looked like he was laughing and crying as he slowly raised his palm.
Chung Shen-soo could tell at a glance that this person's Five Qi was strong and his inner force was not weak. His Medicinal Sand Palm was at least seventy to eighty percent complete.
In the Mountain Medicine Gang of the past, he would have been an elite disciple that Xun Liuyi would have to look up to.
"The gang was breached, and my life was at stake. It's fine if I joined the enemy.
"But to help the evildoer and make things difficult for the senior and junior brothers in the past, causing pain to our loved ones and joy to our enemies, is something we should not do …"
With a sigh, he glanced over and saw seven or eight flaws in Huo Qingtian's palm strike. Then, he randomly picked one and struck out with his palm.
Pa!
A large part of Huo Qingtian's chest caved in, and he fell off the arena with blood flowing all the way.
By the time he fell to the ground, he was already a corpse.
No matter how many reasons he had, no matter how unwilling he was, he had to be prepared to die in the arena of life and death!
This was the Jianghu!
"Again!"
Chung Shen-soo calmly retracted his palm and looked at Luo Sanshan.
He was not familiar with these people. Even Xun Liuyi from before might have been bullied, but he did not think too much about having good brothers.
Therefore, even if he massacred them from top to bottom, he would just treat it as killing an enemy and would not feel anything at all.
Luo Sanshan's face twitched. He waved his hand and called out another person. He was also from the Mountain Medicine Gang. He jumped onto the arena, but before he could say anything, he was killed by Chung Shen-soo with a palm and thrown off the arena.
In an instant, five corpses fell below the blood-colored arena. That terrifying aura made even the Tri-Mountain Sect disciples, who had the advantage in numbers, feel their scalps go numb.
The Grand Elder, Nie Rufei, stepped forward. "Sect Master, there's no need to test him. Not only is this person's martial arts not inferior to ours, but he's also cold-blooded. None of this can shake his mind at all … In time, he'll definitely become a huge threat!
"This is also our fortune. He won't be able to grow."
Luo Sanshan clapped his hands confidently.
Another cultivator wearing the Tri-Mountain Sect's uniform stepped forward. However, he was not the Mountain Medicine Gang's traitor.
Looking at this person, Chung Shen-soo's expression turned grave for the first time.
The feeling this person gave him was similar to that of Gu Qingying. His strength had probably passed the Blood Replacement stage!
In his vision, not only was this person rich in Five Qi, but it was also condensed into a ball.
"Ah … You … Aren't you the Star Plucking Hand Luo Kongtuo, ranked 105th on the Man Roll?"
Meng Tian rubbed his eyes and exclaimed in shock and doubt.
Over at the Mountain Medicine Hall, Wei Baishu, who was still grieving, immediately exploded. "Luo Sanshan, didn't you say that we can't ask for outside help?!"
"I'll let you all know …" Luo Sanshan smiled proudly. "This Young Hero Luo Kongtuo is my distant nephew. He obtained his martial arts by chance and didn't join any other sect. Yesterday, under the witness of the elders of Little Mountain City, he joined the Tri-Mountain Sect and was appointed as the sect leader's disciple … Why can't he represent us in battle?"
"Although there are only 108 young heroes on the Man Roll, those who can enter the Man Roll must have passed the Blood Replacement stage. In fact, their combat strength is considered strong even among the Blood Replacement martial artists … Xun Liu Yi is in danger. I was wondering why this old fox agreed so readily. He had prepared a trump card!" Meng Tian was a little worried.
When the Tri-Mountain Sect expanded its influence previously, the Jiuyuan Sect could sit back and watch, because this small sect did not have a top-notch expert to lead it.
However, after the Star Plucking Hand joined the Tri-Mountain Sect, everything changed.
"Junior Brother Xun, come down quickly. Let's not fight anymore …"
In the Mountain Medicine Hall, Wei Hongyao cried bitterly. Wei Baishu's face was pale.
How could a Blood Arena duel be a joke?
Not to mention that they could not admit defeat, even if they escaped, as the host and the witness, the Jiuyuan Sect had the obligation to hunt them down until they died. Otherwise, they would be despised by the entire Pugilistic World!
