Forget it, just surrender. At least you've been chosen and can drink a few mouthfuls of soup. Otherwise, you won't even be able to get some chopped green onions in the soup.
Qian Nan smiled bitterly as he looked at Jiang Cheng. To be honest, anyone could have been the host of the arena, but it had to be Jiang Cheng with a fifth-grade weapon Origin Energy.
Weapon Origin Energy wasn't completely useless Origin Energy, but the true power of a weapon's Origin Energy was at the Origin Emperor stage. The Origin Emperor was an unreachable level.
Not necessarily. Perhaps they weren't that powerful.
Shui Yue looked at Jiang Cheng worriedly. To be honest, she and Qian Nan had come to this school in the same year. There was no need to doubt the strength of those who had been chosen. What was even more terrifying was that even the academy's enforcers had been chosen.
Hearing Shui Yue's words, Qian Nan rolled his eyes. This time, Jiang Cheng would be lucky if he could get last place. At the very least, he would be able to absorb the energy of the Paja Tree. At the very least, it would be much better than them, who hadn't been chosen.
In a short while, a middle-aged man appeared in front of everyone without any warning. There were no energy fluctuations.
"Everyone, quiet down."
A gentle voice rang out. Everyone raised their heads and saw that the man was floating in the air, looking at them. His expression immediately turned serious. This person was the Southern College's Dean, Tian Mo.
"Everyone who has been chosen by the Paja Tree, please come out. The duel is about to begin. Please be quiet."
Tian Mo's gentle voice seemed to carry some energy fluctuations as it slowly spread out. Although there were many students in the Southern College, everyone could clearly hear Tian Mo's voice.
Following Tian Mo's words, Jiang Cheng walked out and arrived at a platform that the group of people had vacated. This platform was formed from the roots of the Paja Tree. When he stepped on it, it felt like he was stepping on steel. Lifting his head, Jiang Cheng saw that there were three platforms above him. They seemed to be made of wood. This should be where the Paja Baptisms would take place.
He then looked around. Including Jiang Cheng, there were exactly ten people on the stage. At this moment, the other nine people were also looking at Jiang Cheng with serious expressions. They didn't seem to relax because of Jiang Cheng's grade-5 Origin Energy.
In the surroundings, the number of people gradually increased. Along with Tian Mo, there were some people that Jiang Cheng had never seen before. They should be the other teachers and elders of the academy. However, Jiang Cheng did not see Bai Leng. He did not know where she had gone.
Hmm? You are the arena master of this baptism?
After Tian Mo finished ranking the names, he looked at the dumbfounded Jiang Cheng. His expression was extremely strange. How could someone who wasn't even a student of this academy be chosen by the Parga tree?
That's right, I'll just have to fight later, right? I need to protect my position as the ringmaster and not get eliminated, right?
Jiang Cheng felt a little helpless. Wasn't Tian Mo's expression looking down on him? To be honest, with Jiang Cheng's current strength, it was normal for Tian Mo to look down on him.
That's not it either. There are two ways to compete in the arena. It depends on your choice.
Tian Mo shook his head and floated down from the sky. Then, he waved his hand and the Parga tree rippled with green light. Two small spheres of energy appeared in front of Jiang Cheng.
If you eat this, you will have to fight one against nine. You must make them all lose their fighting strength so that you can receive the baptism and be the strongest.
As he spoke, Tian Mo pointed to the green ball on the left, then looked to the right and said, "This one, you will be able to withstand their attacks for fifteen minutes. Then, you can receive the baptism. However, it will be relatively weaker than the one on the left. Come, choose one and eat it."
After saying that, Tian Mo stretched out his hands and extended the two balls in front of Jiang Cheng.
Looking at the two balls, the corners of Jiang Cheng's mouth twitched slightly. "No one would be stupid enough to choose the left, right? If these people don't have the strength of a Source General, who can win?
Indeed, you're right. Among these people, the highest level is the grade-7 Genesis Weapon, Rising Sun. He is a member of the Punishment Department. Although he is not considered outstanding in the Punishment Department, he is much more powerful compared to your group. "
After thinking for a while, Tian Mo looked at Jiang Cheng and then at the man with a long spear on his back among the nine people. To tell the truth, this man really gave off the aura of an immortal. From his red hair that was not particularly pure, it could be seen that his fire-type Source Power had mutated to a certain extent. It was just that Tian Mo did not know which aspect the mutation was leaning towards.
The second most powerful person was also from the Punishment Department. His name was Xu Yang, Rising Sun's younger brother. He had the strength of a grade-7 Genesis Weapon, but he had only been promoted yesterday and could be considered to be at the peak of grade-6.
Tian Mo then looked at the man behind Rising Sun. The man's appearance was somewhat similar to Rising Sun's. He used a small pointed shield and seemed to be a shield soldier.
The structure of the pointed shield was somewhat special. It was not clear whether it was a shield or something else, but from the slight magic power rippling in his eyes, it could be seen that Xu Yang was actually a magician.
My god, how am I supposed to fight? Let alone 15 minutes, I feel that even three minutes will be a problem.
With a bitter smile, Jiang Cheng realized that he had chosen a group of strange people this time. A magician with a shield for close combat, and there was also a strangely cute little girl on Xu Yang's left.
The third one is that little girl. She is Bai Leng's adopted daughter. Yes, you didn't hear wrong. Adopted daughter. Her main cultivation is mental power, but she is too playful. I don't know what stage she is at now. Aiya, do as you see fit. In any case, don't have any hope of getting first place.
While speaking, Tian Mo stretched out the energy ball in his right hand. Obviously, this was the only ball that Jiang Cheng could eat.
Jiang Cheng swallowed and was about to reach out to receive it when the mental power in his mind suddenly trembled. For some strange reason, Jiang Cheng's hand directly passed over the small ball on the right, grabbed the ball on the left, and swallowed it in one breath.
… …
The strange silence made the awkward atmosphere more and more strange. Tian Mo looked at Jiang Cheng in shock. Jiang Cheng didn't understand why he suddenly became like this. All of this wasn't his intention, but he couldn't control his body at all.
I … Can I spit it out?
With a bitter smile, Jiang Cheng looked at Tian Mo. Tian Mo shook his head, looked at Jiang Cheng with a sad look, and then left.
Looking at Tian Mo leaving, Jiang Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Now that he ate the ball on the left, it meant that he had to defeat all of them. If he had the strength in the past, it would be a snap of his fingers, but now, it was impossible.
What was going on recently?
Shaking his head, Jiang Cheng could only take a deep breath and control his source strength. Two daggers appeared in Jiang Cheng's hands. Now, it seemed that only one battle was left.
Three, two, one! The match began!
With Tian Mo's order, a violent fluctuation of source strength suddenly appeared. Jiang Cheng was shocked. The source of this fluctuation was actually from Xuri.
Bang!
A long spear was thrown directly at Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng frowned. Xuri's strength was two levels higher than his. It was not worth it to fight him head-on. What he needed now was to quickly remove all of Xuri's mobility. With Xuri as a formidable opponent, the others could slowly deal with him.
Ding!
Suddenly, Jiang Cheng found that his mental power suddenly fluctuated. A small wisp of mental power condensed into a small ball and directly collided with Xuri.
Ah!
Xuri shouted. The dagger in Jiang Cheng's hand flicked upwards towards the long spear. The long spear was directly flicked away. Xuri knelt on the ground, holding his head with both hands and trembling on the ground. The roar in his mind made him unable to concentrate.
Huh? This is …
Outside, Tian Mo immediately frowned when he saw the battle inside. Although he had not cultivated mental power, it was easy for him to pry into the mental power that Jiang Cheng used.
When Jiang Cheng's mental power condensed into a small ball, he felt that something was wrong. This mental power was condensed so skillfully. Obviously, it was not something that could be done in a day or two. Moreover, looking at the condensed form and the energy fluctuation, Tian Mo felt that this technique was somewhat familiar. Was it a bit like … Bai Leng?
At this time, Jiang Cheng looked at Xuri in surprise, who had completely lost his combat power. To be honest, the mental power from before was not released by him at all. Now, with the mental power that Jiang Cheng manipulated, it was impossible to pull out a wisp of it to attack. At most, it was a head-on collision.
He stabilized his mind and manipulated the source strength to attack with the long spear thrown by Xuri!
Suddenly, Bai Leng's voice rang in the place where Jiang Cheng's mental power was. Jiang Cheng was startled. He did not have time to ask anything else and directly grabbed Xuri's long spear, preparing to send Xuri flying with one blow and eliminate him.
But suddenly, Xuri's younger brother, Xuyang, appeared in front of Jiang Cheng. The shield in his hand slammed towards Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng quickly dodged, and the long spear in his hand collided with Xuyang's shield. With a bang, the shock of the collision made Jiang Cheng's hand numb.
Looking at the people around him, he saw that the others didn't choose to move. They were very clear that the real goal of this so-called arena battle wasn't to drag Jiang Cheng to death. The real goal was still the first position of the baptism.
If they all wanted to deal with Jiang Cheng, and if Jiang Cheng got angry and risked his life to injure a few of them, it would not be worth it to lose the baptism.
Therefore, this time, they all learned from their mistakes and directly let the strongest two go up to fight with Jiang Cheng to exhaust him. The others could conserve their strength. After all, when Jiang Cheng was defeated, the winner of the arena had to be given to the person who won. That person would continue to accept challenges from others until there was only one person left.
