The colosseum looked like a hollow cylinder from the outside with four entrances and exits located in four different directions. The lowest level was where the combatants were resting and waiting, while the other side was where the vicious beasts were imprisoned. Every room had a door, and once the iron door was opened, it would lead straight to the battlefield.
The first level of the cylindrical cylinder was like that, while the second level to the third level was the spectator seats. Everyone who wanted to watch the battle had to enter from the entrance and walk to the second level to find a seat. The third level was filled with the direct descendants of the four great clans. There was a high platform at the center that had a wide field of view. Looking down from there, one could clearly see the scene of the colosseum.
This seat was specially set up for the young masters, clan patriarchs, and elders of the four great clans. Even if the other direct descendants wanted to sit there, they didn't have the guts to do so.
At that moment, a middle-aged man wearing luxurious clothes walked onto the high platform. On his left and right shoulders were two thick and sturdy arms that were densely packed with eyes.
This person was the manager of the colosseum, Duo Ju.
The colosseum was the property of the four great clans. Every five years, the manager would change, and the manager would be chosen by the four great clans. Duo Ju had taken over the position of the manager of the colosseum from Morrow Clan some time ago. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that he had just taken over the position to properly serve the four young masters and become familiar with them, which would give him an opportunity to make a meteoric rise in his career.
Unfortunately, not long after he took over the position, god father descended to the mortal world to recuperate and issued two orders. After the four young masters received the mission, they recruited subordinates from their clans and went to Lakshmi City's territory. Duo Ju was looking forward to the return of the young masters, so he prepared to properly receive them in the colosseum.
But when he was done, the three young masters sitting on the high platform disappeared without a trace.
Duo Ju looked around but didn't find any trace of the three young masters. He waved his hand at the maid standing on the high platform and said, "In such a short amount of time, where is the third young master?"
"The third young master left, Lord Manager," the maid replied honestly.
He left just like that?
Duo Ju waved his hand to make the maid withdraw. He stood on the high platform and looked at the excited spectators below while mumbling to himself, "Could it be that the third young master got tired of watching the program? Or did he leave because he had something to do? I don't understand. He left so soon after arriving. "
It wasn't easy for the Third Young Master to come here. Originally, he wanted to use this great opportunity to get familiar with Domingle. If he served him well, he might even be able to work under Domingle and become his right-hand man after his term in the Colosseum ended.
What a pity. Duo Ju sighed and looked at the battle below, his mind distracted.
At the bottom level of the colosseum, Li Yunmu walked in the front and arrived at the resting area of the colosseum. Brunhilda followed behind him expressionlessly. Behind them were the two young masters who were floating in mid-air.
In the lounge, all the combatants were laughing and fooling around. Only a small portion of the newcomers were sitting in the corner, looking nervous. Those who could become fighters in the Colosseum were basically not people from the four major clans. They were all commoners from the lower city. In order to survive, he had to be prepared to sacrifice his life to become a Beast Fighter.
Among them, there were also some powerhouses who had obtained consecutive victories. Apart from earning money, they also wanted to obtain the appreciation of the direct descendants of the four great clans. Once they were valued, they would be able to leave their status as poor people of lower city and become servants of the four great clans.
When Li Yunmu and Brunhilda entered, the people in the lounge quieted down and carefully sized them up. The powerhouses sitting in the first row straightened their backs and looked at Li Yunmu without blinking. Everyone treated the two of them as direct descendants of the four great clans who had come to choose their subordinates.
After a moment of silence, a robust man sitting in the first row stood up and respectfully said to Li Yunmu, "Lord, have you come to choose your servants? I have fought several tens of battles in the colosseum and won all of them. Perhaps your distinguished self can … "
"Old bastard, you can withdraw. You can win so many battles only because of your strength. Those vicious beasts can't compare to you, so naturally you won. If we talk about strength, can you compare to the branch family descendants of the four great clans? Lord has certainly come here to choose some clever people. "
Once he said that, a lean youngster stood up from the first row. There were countless cracks on his hands, which seemed to be eyes that hadn't opened yet. The robust middle-aged man looked at the lean youngster with an indignant expression and loudly said, "My strength can naturally be considered as a skill, unlike Rat who doesn't have much strength. Every time you appear, you have to rely on crafty schemes."
Rat chuckled and didn't refute him. He turned to look at Li Yunmu and said in a fawning manner, "What kind of person is lord? If you lack people with great strength, then naturally you can find them. Generals are easy to find, but military advisors are difficult to find. Do you understand? "
Li Yunmu looked at Old Bastard and Rat teasing each other with interest. After arguing for a while, the two of them became tired and turned to look at him, as if waiting for some words to appear.
"You two might be mistaken. I haven't come to recruit servants, but to bring people to participate in the colosseum. But you two are quite interesting. Based on your appearance, you two should be from the four great clans who haven't revealed their bloodline and were thrown into the lower city to become poor people, "Li Yunmu said with a faint smile.
When the old bastard and Rat heard his words, their complexions dimmed, and they nodded to express their tacit agreement.
"Since that's the case, then you two should want to return to the four great clans, right?" Li Yunmu asked. The four great clans were the nobles of Asura City, so if they wanted to get rid of their status as poor people of lower city and return to the four great clans to become branch family descendants or even become servants, it would be a good way out.
The two of them nodded, and a hint of fanaticism appeared in their eyes. Why were they risking their lives in the colosseum? Wasn't it to attract the attention of the descendants of the four great clans sitting on the platform?
"Alright, I'll give the two of you a mission. If you complete it, I will accept you as my subordinates. "
After saying that, Li Yunmu waved his hand, and Jasmine and Domingle floated in the air and slowly flew toward the two of them. When everyone saw Jasmine and Domingle's appearance, they were startled, especially the expressions of old bastard and Rat, who had been nodding vigorously just a moment ago.
In the colosseum, as long as someone wanted to become a servant of the four great clans, they would definitely memorize the appearances of the direct descendants of the four great clans as well as the young masters. And the two people floating in front of them were the two young masters.
The entire lounge turned silent. Everyone sitting on the chairs was silently muttering to themselves. Some of them even slowly lowered their heads, pretending that they hadn't seen anything.
The quick-witted Rat shuddered slightly and stammered, "Lord, is this the mission you were talking about?"
