Nearly half of the twenty-four contestants expressed strong dissatisfaction.
They had come to participate in the Arena either for fame or for profit, but disregarding life and death for fame and profit wasn't their goal.
"My apologies, everyone. When you joined the Arena, you signed a life-and-death agreement. The last clause is already clearly stated that as long as you are in the Skywings Arena, you must unconditionally obey the Arena's arrangements." Skywings East had long known that these contestants would disagree.
The contestants all had terrible expressions as they cursed inwardly. This was simply a tyrannical rule.
But they had indeed signed that agreement. If they violated the Arena's rules, they would face sky-high compensation.
The Skywings Arena would hunt them down all over the continent.
"Retracting our head is a knife, sticking our head out is also a knife. Let's go all out!" The four members of the first team who had drawn the Glacier Raging Elephant stepped forward.
"The first match is about to begin. The remaining contestants of teams two to six, please return to the contestant lounge to rest."
The members of teams two to six returned to the lounge with indescribable feelings.
No one was willing to stay and watch the match. Everyone was thinking about how to deal with the next match.
Not long after they entered the lounge, they heard a tremor that sounded like an earthquake.
Someone asked, "I wonder what the result is."
"No matter what, we have to compete. We're already meat on the chopping block. We'll be swallowed no matter what, "said Chen Yongan of the sixth team.
The Sixth Battle Team was the one that had drawn the unicorn earlier on.
At this moment, the four of them had already studied the information on the Light Unicorn.
Chen Yongan was a typical martial artist, with a full beard and casual clothes that made him look rather sloppy.
The peacock man and woman from Lionheart couldn't help but frown when they saw that man, as if they had seen something dirty.
Everyone said nothing as they listened to the activity in the arena.
"Since we're waiting, why don't we all drink a few mouthfuls to boost our courage?" Chen Yongan took out a leather pouch filled with high-concentration sorghum wine.
For martial artists, wine was their second weapon.
It could boost their courage, improve their blood circulation, and sometimes even heal ordinary wounds.
With that, he took a sip before casually handing it to Flame, who was closest to him.
The two Flame Emperors had a good impression of this boorish man.
Yan did not hesitate and took the wine. Without even wiping the mouth of the water bag, he drank a mouthful.
That was the coarsest type of sorghum wine. It was spicy and did not taste like alcohol at all. In comparison, Yan was already missing the few jars of elven fruit wine that she had stored in the Beast Language Ring.
The texture was exquisite and the wine was strong. It was a pity that the ring had been taken away by Elder Helian.
When the Emperor saw this, he couldn't refuse. He imitated Yan and took a sip.
"Heh, you must be the Flame Emperors. I have high hopes for you! I didn't know that a woman could be so bold! "Seeing that the Flame Emperor was not bashful at all, the boorish man Chen Yongan smiled until his face was full of wrinkles.
They were enemies in the arena, but friends outside the arena.
This was a typical competitor.
Just like that, the wine pouch was passed down. Everyone felt as if they were fellow sufferers.
However, when Li Xinyue heard about it, she threw away the wine pouch. "It's so dirty. Why are you still drinking at a time like this? Are you all in a rush to drink? "
Li Xinyue's words were like scolding someone to death. At this critical juncture, it was simply touching someone's bad luck.
When Chen Yongan heard this, blood rushed to his head.
"Woman, is there something wrong with your brain? That's my wine. Get lost!" He rolled up his sleeves and was about to argue with Li Xinyue.
"Chen Yongan, don't you dare touch her!" Huangfu Shi cast a sidelong glance at Chen Yongan.
His opponent's cultivation was lower than his.
"Brother Chen, forget it. It's just a pouch of wine. When the competition is over, I'll treat you to the best elven fruit wine if there's a chance." Yan moved forward and pulled Chen Yongan back.
Chen Yongan was not willing to let this go. However, he realized that his hand was held down by Yan and could not move at all.
Only then did Li Yong realize that although the lass looked weak, she was not simple at all.
It was said that the Flame Emperor was just a name. It seemed that it was just a rumor.
To be able to participate in the annual competition, none of them were weak. Li Yong looked rough, but there was a finesse in his roughness. He had a good eye for people.
"Elven fruit wine? Then I'll let it go for your sake. I'll wait for that cup of wine. "Li Yong chuckled, giving Yan face.
"Let's talk about it later if you're alive to drink that cup of wine." Li Xinyue interrupted.
"Woman, I dare you to say that again!" Chen Yongan's anger was stirred up again.
Fortunately, the first round of the competition was over.
"The first round of the competition is over. The second round of the competition is about to begin. Team Two, please come out." A staff member of the arena walked in.
As soon as he came in, the other contestants immediately surrounded him.
"Who won?" Huangfu Shi asked anxiously.
"The Glacier Wild Elephant was killed. However, among the four members of Team One, one is dead, one is injured, and two are alive. The person who was injured at the last moment was trampled by the Berserk Wild Ice Elephant and had his spine crushed. I'm afraid he'll be bedridden for the rest of his life. "The staff member announced mechanically.
Such a tragic result still caused everyone present to be slightly surprised.
This piece of news made the earlier conflict seem insignificant.
"Team Two, hurry up and come out. Team Three, get ready."
The annual competition would last for an entire day. The duration of the competition depended on the strength of the magical beasts and the contestants.
The first round of the competition lasted for less than an Hour.
According to this calculation, it would soon be the third round of the competition.
The third round of the competition would be between Team Three and the Hell Birds.
However, before the second round of the competition ended, there was another piece of news.
The first round of the competition had a direct impact.
After the news of Team One's death spread, the odds of the betting tables controlled by the Hidden Night Pavilion suddenly skyrocketed.
The odds, which were originally in favor of the contestants, suddenly changed.
When the second round of the competition began, the odds had changed from the initial 1: 1 to 3: 1.
In this round, several teams couldn't hold back anymore. Li Yong and the others went out to watch the competition.
Under Yan's persuasion, Huang meditated in the resting room.
The second round of the competition lasted longer than the first.
About one and a half Hour later, the results of the competition were finally out.
"Team Two has lost. The Lava Lizard's attack power is shocking." Chen Yongan announced the result as soon as he came in.
He was no longer in the mood to drink and joke. His expression was serious.
The second magical beast, the Lava Lizard, had thick skin. The contestants couldn't take it down for a long time and used up a lot of energy.
At the last moment, the Lava Lizard released a high-level spell, Lava Volcano. The situation was very tragic.
Of the four contestants, two were dead and two were injured.
The Lava Lizard won.
With such a result, the already tense atmosphere in the contestant lounge became even more oppressive.
