In the arena, Lu An and Da Meng stood a hundred feet apart in the center. This was the rule of the Flaming Lion Tribe's arena. At the beginning, the distance was only a hundred feet.
The thousands of Flaming Lions around them roared continuously, making earth-shattering noises. Lu An stood quietly in the arena, looking at the Flaming Lions in the distance, his eyes slightly focused.
The roars around him didn't affect his concentration, but he didn't know how to fight this battle.
Da Meng didn't transform into his human form, but remained in his original form. Da Meng kept roaring, which was a huge contrast to Lu An, who was standing quietly in the wind.
Seeing Lu An's lack of desire to fight, Yao, as his wife, knew what he was thinking, but Hong Yi didn't. She couldn't help but frown.
"Begin!!" Shaxiong roared in the language of the Flaming Lion Tribe. Da Meng, who was a hundred feet away, roared after hearing the roar. His figure moved instantly, charging straight at Lu An!
A mere hundred feet was too close for a powerful Rank Seven Mystical Beast, let alone a peak Rank Seven Da Meng. A distance of a thousand feet was the best distance to kill!
A loud bang came from the ground. Da Meng's body didn't fly very high, only a hundred feet or so. He pounced at Lu An with extreme speed! Lu An didn't know the battle had begun. When he saw this scene, his eyes turned cold. He came back to his senses and immediately retreated!
Whoosh!
Rumble!!
Da Meng pounced on empty air, and Lu An could only be considered to have dodged the attack just now!
The Flaming Lion's strength and speed were top-notch existences among Mystical Beasts, completely surpassing that of humans. In addition, there was a huge difference in strength between the two sides. If not for the distance of a hundred feet, Lu An could react in advance, Lu An wouldn't have been able to take this attack!
Looking at Lu An, who was only four feet away, Da Meng pounced forward again, sweeping a palm at Lu An's body. The power was enough to heavily injure Lu An. The opponent's speed was so fast that Lu An could only jump and dodge the claw horizontally. At the same time, he kicked the opponent's claw and used the force to retreat quickly!
Whoosh!
Lu An's figure retreated explosively. Seeing this scene, the thousands of Fire Lions watching the battle could not help but let out a series of roars, full of contempt and ridicule. In a battle between Fire Lions, if someone ran away like this, the entire Fire Lion Clan would be ashamed.
They would rather die in battle than retreat. This was the principle of the Flaming Lion Race.
Da Meng's eyes also showed deep contempt. Although it was surprised that its attack and close-range attack had been dodged, this human was clearly no match for it.
Da Meng roared again, running on all fours on the ground. Although the Fire Lion could fly, its speed on land far exceeded its flying speed. It quickly caught up with Lu An and closed the distance between them!
The opponent's speed was too fast, which made Lu An's eyes turn cold. He knew that he couldn't escape by blindly retreating. He had to think of something.
The simplest way was to release a layer of ice to block the middle, or to protect oneself. However, Deep Ice was the power of the Hachiko clan. If he used Deep Ice on the Flaming Lion clan, the Flaming Lion clan would be disgusted.
Immortal Qi.
Lu An's best choice was to use Immortal Qi.
Seeing that Da Meng was charging towards him again, Lu An's body immediately shone with a white light, filling the space between him and Da Meng. The Immortal Qi was very dense, but Da Meng's strength was even stronger. It immediately concentrated all its strength on this claw and slapped towards the dense Immortal Qi!
However … the claw hit nothing.
Da Meng thought that the Immortal Qi was full of strength, but in fact, it was just a thin layer of gas. The feeling of using the wrong strength appeared, and then its speed and strength instantly decreased. Not only that, but its body also became uncontrollable.
The Fire Lion Race was a race of fighting, and Da Meng had fought countless battles. It naturally knew what this situation meant. It was the best time for its opponent to attack.
However, Lu An did not seize the opportunity.
Whoosh!
Lu An only dodged Da Meng's attack and quickly opened up a distance of 300 meters. Da Meng directly jumped on the ground and immediately turned around to look at Lu An behind it.
The appearance of this scene caused all the Fire Lions present to let out roars. In their opinion, Da Meng had been chasing this human all this time, and it was only a matter of time before he won. Only a few extremely intelligent Fire Lions vaguely realized that something was wrong.
This included Lady Red. She looked at Lu An, who was standing up from the ground in the distance, with a puzzled look on her face.
Then, Da Meng charged towards Lu An again. It was very dissatisfied because it had not succeeded three times in a row. In its opinion, defeating this weak human should be a matter of one move, even if the other party was from Sengoku.
However, the reality was the complete opposite.
Da Meng's continuous attacks were still ineffective. Under Lu An's extreme dodging, he escaped by a hair's breadth each time. In the arena, Da Meng kept attacking, while Lu An kept dodging and escaping. In the eyes of outsiders, Da Meng was completely toying with Lu An. It was completely a game of cat and mouse.
Seeing this scene, the Fire Lions who had some doubts also shook their heads. Although they felt that something was off, seeing this human being being chased and beaten to the point of covering his head and fleeing like a rat, the doubts in their hearts were swept away.
"If our Fire Lion Tribe has the innate ability to advance courageously, then humans have the innate ability to escape." Shaxiong stood beside Lady Red and turned to his sister. "Don't you think so?"
Hearing this, Lady Red looked at Shaxiong and frowned. She did not answer, but instead asked, "If humans are really so useless, how can they occupy the entire Eight Ancient Continents?"
Hearing Lady Red's words, Shaxiong's face suddenly changed, becoming very ugly. The surrounding Fire Lions also looked troubled. It was common for this pair of siblings to quarrel, and they did not know how to persuade them.
"Humans can occupy the Eight Ancient Continents because there are too many of them." A Fire Lion quickly said, "If our Fire Lion Tribe also had that many people, there would be no humans in the world!"
Hearing this, the surrounding Fire Lions immediately nodded in agreement. It was obvious that they also thought this was the truth.
"That's right!" Shaxiong also immediately said loudly, "If it was a one on one fight, how could our Fire Lion Tribe lose to humans?! Look at the battle in front of us. So what if he has the bloodline of the Hachiko clan? Doesn't he only know how to run? "
Lady Red frowned. She took a deep breath and did not say anything. She coldly snorted and brought Yao away from the group of arrogant lions to the other side to watch the battle.
However, it was undeniable that Lu An had been passively taking a beating and running away. He did not have the slightest strength to fight back. Lady Red's face was very gloomy as she watched this scene. Suddenly, she noticed something and immediately turned to look at Yao beside her. However, she found that Yao's face was calm, without any worry.
Strange!
Wasn't she Lu An's wife? Why wasn't she worried about Lu An's safety at all?
She could see that this woman truly loved Lu An. She was definitely not heartless, but why was it like this?
Lady Red frowned and thought. Suddenly, her body shook, and she turned to look at Lu An who was running away!
Could it be …
Could it be that this brat did it on purpose?!
That's right. Lady Red finally saw through this. Lu An was indeed doing it on purpose. The reason was simple. He had been hesitating whether he should win or not.
He was here to win over the Flaming Lion Clan. If he defeated a Flaming Lion right from the start, he was worried that this would make the Flaming Lion Clan hostile to him, making it impossible to win them over. However, he also felt that he could not lose because he came with Yao. In a sense, he represented Sengoku. If he lost, where would Yao's face go?
These two aspects had been entangled in Lu An's mind. Lu An could not figure it out, so he chose to run away. He did not fight back from the beginning to the end. Even though he had many opportunities to defeat the Flaming Lion, he did not do so.
At this moment, Da Meng was also a little angry. It had been attacking for so long and still had not taken down this human. This was an insult to it. Originally, it only wanted to use its physical strength, but it seemed that it could not hide its strength. It needed to use the unique strength of the Flaming Lion Clan.
Its body instantly lunged forward. Lu An had predicted this in advance. After dodging this attack, his body flew backward in mid-air. At this moment, Da Meng's eyes lit up. It opened its mouth and a huge pillar of fire went straight for Lu An!
Lu An was shocked. He could no longer dodge, so he immediately released a small version of the Dragon-Catching Technique in front of him and blocked this attack with his Rainbow Palm. However, his opponent's strength was much higher than his. Even though the Dragon-Catching Technique blocked most of the pillar of fire, a part of it still hit Lu An directly!
Boom!!
Lu An's body flew backward for hundreds of feet. He stopped only when he reached the fence at the edge of the arena!
Bang!
Lu An's body hit the fence, and the blood in his body churned. Fortunately, he used his arms to protect his body, so he did not suffer any serious injuries. However, what surprised him was that his wife and Lady Red happened to be standing behind him.
Lady Red was glaring at him with a face full of anger. After asking Yao, Yao had told Lady Red about Lu An's concerns, so that she could confirm Lu An's thoughts.
Because of this, she was even angrier.
Under Lu An's stunned gaze, Lady Red gritted her teeth and said, "I know you want to rope in the Flaming Lion Tribe, but I also said that the Flaming Lion Tribe only respects the strong! If you really want to rope them in, then beat Da Meng to a pulp. The harder, the better! The stronger you show them, the more willing they will be to help you! If you really lose, then they will really look down on you and ignore you! "
Lu An's body shook. He looked at Lady Red in disbelief. He did not expect the Flaming Lion Tribe to have such a temper.
Looking at Lu An's shocked expression, Lady Red took a deep breath and said coldly, "Twenty years ago, when your mother came to the Flaming Lion Tribe, she almost overturned the entire Flaming Lion Tribe by herself. As her son, don't embarrass her! "
Lu An's body shook. His face was full of shock, and he was completely dumbfounded!
Then, his eyes changed dramatically. From hesitation to determination, he turned to look at Da Meng in the center of the arena.
He took a deep breath, and his eyes became very deep!
No matter what, he could not disgrace his mother's reputation!
