Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
Within an hour, more than ten people had already gone on stage. The arena was repaired time and time again during the break, but it was destroyed again and again during the battle. The intense battle made everyone extremely excited, and they cheered wildly.
Because the first person to go on stage was a fourth-level celestial master, the people who went on stage after that were all fourth-level celestial masters. Third-level celestial masters did not even have the right to go on stage. As for fifth-level celestial masters, those who could become fifth-level celestial masters were the leaders of an alliance in the city. Their status was hard to come by, and they would not offend Prince Chu.
Prince Chu sat on the spectator stand, and the maidservant behind him held up an umbrella to block the light for him. He ate fruits as he watched the battle in the arena excitedly. His leisurely manner made it seem as if this battle had nothing to do with him.
Whether it was the people on the spectator stand or the countless onlookers, they would all look at Prince Chu from time to time. Everyone knew that as the main character of this competition, Prince Chu was the most important. After Prince Chu went on stage, the show officially began. Although it was so intense now, it was just the appetizer.
Time passed slowly. After all, the time limit for the competition was only two hours. Half of it had already passed, and it was getting closer and closer to the end. Although the battle in the arena was even more intense, everyone knew that the main event was far from here.
In fact, the number of people who went on stage decreased in the second half of the competition. Even those who were capable did not go on stage. Because if they went on stage now, they would be in a different mood from those who went on stage before. They would really become Prince Chu's enemy.
At this moment, the people fighting in the arena were also two peak fourth-level celestial masters. One was a fire-attribute celestial master, and the other was an earth-attribute celestial master. The battle between the two of them was very long. One of them could not defeat the other for a long time, while the other had to keep defending until the other was exhausted. The battle between the two of them became a tug of war. This battle also became the longest battle, and the winner was only decided after a full 15 minutes.
After the fire-attribute celestial master finally defeated the earth-attribute celestial master, he was also panting in the arena. At this moment, there was less than 15 minutes left before the end of the battle. It was really close to the end. This person looked at the dense crowd below the arena and said loudly, "Who else wants to go on stage to fight!"
As soon as he said this, everyone immediately looked at each other and began to discuss. Although this person was clearly at the end of his rope, the problem did not lie with this person. Rather, it was that he would definitely become Prince Chu's opponent if he stepped onto the stage now. Those who understood the situation would not go on stage. They would let this person stand in the arena. Then, at the last moment, Prince Chu would go on stage and defeat this person. In the end, he would win the beauty.
No one was stupid. If they went out now, they would be courting death.
"Let me!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in the crowd. Immediately, everyone's body trembled as they hurriedly looked in the direction of the voice. Under the gazes of tens of thousands of people, they saw a person leap up and rush towards the arena!
Whoosh!
This person landed on the stage steadily. This person was dressed luxuriously and had the aura of a scholar. However, his eyes were extremely arrogant. After landing on the ring, he looked at the Fire Attribute Heavenly Master with contempt and said indifferently, "Do you want me to beat you down, or do you want to go down yourself?"
Hearing this, the Celestial Master of Fire Attribute flew into a rage and shouted, "How can a real man surrender? If you want to fight, let's fight. Why are you wasting your breath?"
The scholarly man sneered and said, "If that's the case, I'll torture you slowly."
After saying that, this person actually put his hands behind his back and stood in the arena just like that, looking at his opponent with contempt. The Fire Attribute Heavenly Master of Fire Attribute had never been humiliated like this. He immediately roared and rushed towards the scholar!
Bang!
When he was 30 feet away from the scholar, the Fire Attribute Heavenly Master slapped his palms across the air. In an instant, monstrous flames surged out and engulfed the entire arena in front of him. However, the scholar was not hurt at all. At this moment, he was floating in the air.
A Wind Attribute Heavenly Master!
Another Wind Attribute Heavenly Master!
Everyone was stunned when they saw the scholar high up in the air. They did not expect to see a second Wind Attribute Heavenly Master appear. After knowing the other party's attribute, the Fire Attribute Heavenly Master's face turned ashen. The Wind Attribute was simply a complete counter to the Fire Attribute.
However, the scholar in the air was not in a hurry to beat the Fire Attribute Heavenly Master down the stage. Instead, he just watched. Everyone was stunned when they saw this. They immediately understood that this scholar wanted to keep the Fire Attribute Heavenly Master alive until the time was up.
As long as the time was up, no one would be able to go on stage to fight. At that time, he would defeat the Fire Attribute Heavenly Master and the final winner would be him!
This kind of wishful thinking really put in a lot of effort.
However, the Fire Attribute Heavenly Master in the arena was not stupid. After his attacks all missed, he also understood what was going on. At this time, it was only the time for three incense sticks to burn before the time was up. He looked at the arena and saw Prince Chu looking at him with a frown. His body suddenly trembled. Without hesitation, he hurriedly said to the host, "I admit defeat!"
As soon as this was said, the audience was in an uproar. However, everyone understood this person in their hearts. If this person did not step down and the scholar's plan succeeded, he would also be in big trouble.
Seeing his opponent leave, the scholar's face froze. He was obviously unhappy. The reason why he dared to go on stage was that he was not from the Tian Lang Kingdom. As long as he could win the beauty's heart, he could directly leave Black Wolf City and return to his own kingdom. At that time, even the prince of the Tian Lang Kingdom would not be able to control him.
Although his opponent had left, the scholar was not too flustered. He was confident in his own strength. He did not believe that Prince Chu would be his match. He landed steadily on the arena and looked around at the people around him. He smiled and said, "Who else wants to come up and spar with me?"
Everyone in the audience was discussing. At this time, they were no longer in the arena. The scholar smiled confidently. In his opinion, even if someone came up to the arena at this time, he had absolute confidence that he would be able to drag it out until the time was up and then defeat his opponent. In other words, he had grasped the timing just right. No matter what, he would win.
In the stands, the people of the Blood Symbol Alliance also began to discuss. Indeed, with this person's strength, there were probably very few people who could be his opponent, let alone take him down in a short time. At the side, Fang Zhangwen also whispered to Chen Shuangdao, "If Prince Chu does not have any plans, I'm afraid this person will completely destroy everything."
"That's right!" Chen Shuangdao also whispered, "I'm afraid there is no one in Black Wolf City who can defeat this person in the same realm. Unless …"
Chen Shuangdao and Fang Zhangwen looked at each other. They knew the answer from each other's eyes, but neither of them said it.
Not far away, the protagonist of this joust for marriage, Liu Lan, was looking around for someone in the crowd.
At this time, why did he not appear?
Why did he not appear?
Where the hell are he?
Everyone was discussing, and the entire arena was noisy. Seeing that no one came up to the arena, the scholar became even more confident and said with a smile, "Is there no one who dares to come up to the arena and fight with me?"
"I will!"
Suddenly, a deep and resounding voice rang out, and it came from the spectator's stand! Everyone was shocked and quickly looked towards the stands. The scholar was the same. He felt a chill down his spine and quickly turned to look at the stands!
He saw the person who had been sitting beside Prince Chu stand up and look coldly at the scholar in the arena.
Just a glance was enough to make the scholar's body tremble! He felt that this person's strength was unfathomable!
Even the people in the stands were stunned and looked at this person in astonishment. They all knew this person. He was Prince Chu's personal bodyguard. At this time, Prince Chu did not look angry at all. In fact, he even had a smile on his face. It was obvious that this person stood up under his instructions!
The guard leaped into the air and landed on top of the arena with a loud bang. He looked coldly at the scholar and asked coldly, "Do you want to get down yourself, or do you want me to do it?"
The scholar's expression turned ugly. This was what he had said to others earlier, but he did not expect to be said this way.
"If you want to fight, then fight. Why are you saying so much?" The scholar gritted his teeth and immediately used all his strength. He wanted to use the advantage of being a wind-attribute Heavenly Master to fly into the air and increase the distance between them.
However, at this moment, the bodyguard moved.
His body suddenly disappeared from the scholar's sight, and the scholar was stunned! Immediately after, the scholar felt a strong force coming from his ankle and grabbed his body that was about to fly into the air!
So fast?
How could it be so fast?!
At this moment, everyone was shocked. It was obvious that this bodyguard was a fifth-level Heavenly Master!
The bodyguard snorted and said, "You are courting death. Don't blame me!"
Hearing this, the scholar was scared out of his wits and quickly said, "I admit …"
Unfortunately, before he could finish his sentence, the bodyguard had already grabbed the scholar's leg and slammed him into the ground. Then, he punched the scholar's chest with all his might!
Bang!
The arena shook, and the scholar's chest caved in completely. His eyes widened, and he died on the spot!
After killing the scholar, the bodyguard was expressionless. He grabbed the scholar's head and lifted him up. With a sneer, he threw him out of the arena like trash.
"Who else wants to go on stage?!"
Once this was said, the entire arena fell silent. Seeing the scholar who was in high spirits a moment ago turn into a cold corpse, who would dare to go on stage and fight with this bodyguard?
For a moment, everyone shut their mouths and did not dare to speak. It was obvious that Prince Chu had made his move. The final winner of this contest was destined to be Prince Chu. This would not change.
In the spectator stands, everyone looked at Prince Chu. At this moment, they all understood what Prince Chu was planning. He wanted his bodyguard to defeat all the enemies at the end. At the last moment, he would go on stage and defeat his bodyguard to obtain the final victory.
This was the most stable method and also the most foolproof method. Although this bodyguard's strength was not strong among the fifth-level Heavenly Masters and was only at the mid-fifth-level, no fifth-level Heavenly Master would dare to offend Prince Chu at this time.
The outcome was set.
Everyone looked at the sky and watched as time slowly passed. The discussions became softer and softer, and the arena gradually became very quiet. Seeing that the time was almost up and there was only ten minutes left, Prince Chu put down the tea in his hand with a smile. He patted his clothes and got up, preparing to walk towards the arena.
At this moment, a voice that was neither loud nor soft sounded. However, it was exceptionally clear in the silent arena.
"I'll fight with you."
