Chapter 1355 - 890: Life and Death at the Arena

~8 min read 1,592 words

Because the clan tacitly approves of duels in the Martial Arts Arena, they won’t interfere.

"Alright, we accept your challenge. Tomorrow morning, we will fight to the death in the Martial Arts Arena!" Wu Yu’er and Wu Lie said in unison.

"Good!"

Seeing this, Lin Feng nodded, then turned to Wu Tianyu and asked, "What about you? Want to join in?"

He hoped Wu Tianyu would fight him as well, so he could openly kill him then.

Everyone was shocked to hear this. Wu Chen actually wanted to challenge Wu Tianyu? Wasn’t this pure suicide?

Wu Tianyu sneered, arrogantly saying, "You’re not qualified to make me act. Survive against them first."

With that, Wu Tianyu waved his sleeve, turned, and left, striding out of the Earth Spirit Tower.

Watching Wu Tianyu’s departing figure, Lin Feng coldly chuckled inside and then also left the Earth Spirit Tower.

"Haha! That Wu Chen is definitely dead tomorrow!"

"That’s for sure, truly arrogant beyond measure!"

"Could he be planning to escape? We should keep an eye on his movements, lest he sneaks out of the city tonight!"

The crowd discussed animatedly, many laughed heartily, but some wary people worried Lin Feng might escape and decided to monitor his movements.

"Brother Wu Lie, Miss Yu’er, make sure not to spare Wu Chen tomorrow!"

"Yeah, don’t let him die too easily!"

"Wu Chen is contemptible, and he’ll get what’s coming to him!"

Soon after, many gave their good wishes to Wu Lie and Wu Yu’er, believing in their capabilities.

After all, both were Martial Artists of the Fourth Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm, their cultivation far above Wu Chen’s, and Wu Chen wasn’t a talented genius capable of battling across ranks.

"Everyone rest assured, tomorrow is Wu Chen’s death day!" Wu Lie said with a smile, confident in his victory.

He had previously fought Wu Chen on a barren mountain and knew Wu Chen’s strength well—there was no way he could be a match.

It’s just been over a month since then, even if Wu Chen improved, how much could he have progressed!

Wu Yu’er was equally assured, glad that tomorrow they could finally solve the Wu Chen issue, forever eliminating a threat.

Yet, for some reason, she felt Wu Chen seemed different, as if there was a subtle change in his aura.

After leaving the Earth Spirit Tower, Lin Feng returned to Wu Chen’s residence, sat cross-legged in a cultivation room, and continued training.

He didn’t need to worry about Wu Lie and Wu Yu’er at all—he could defeat them in a few moves.

However, when killing those two, he had to be careful not to reveal his true identity.

Firstly, his Lifebound Spirit Sword Formation and Great Vault of Heaven Sword Technique must not be used.

Using these moves would be recognized by Wu Tianyu, Wu Changyuan, and others who’d been to Heavenly Vault World.

He could only avoid using any Martial Techniques, or use some basic techniques he learned early on.

Even so, defeating Wu Lie and Wu Yu’er was no problem at all.

Having cultivated the Heavenly Chaos Demon Technique, his body’s cultivation had increased nearly threefold, and coupled with his countless Stars and Battle Souls, beating Wu Lie would be easier than ever.

Of course, these numerous Stars should be used sparingly to prevent recognition by those who’d been to Heavenly Vault World.

As for the Devouring Battle Soul, these Stars and Battle Souls, if needed, should be used discreetly to avoid any suspicion.

Lin Feng continued cultivating the Heavenly Chaos Demon Technique, without using Spirit Crystal, just absorbing nature’s spiritual energy for cultivation.

The demonic qi around him grew thicker and stronger, and the intense demon power filled the entire cultivation room.

He was still a bit away from fully transforming his cultivation technique, estimating he’d need at least half a month, but he wasn’t in a rush.

As long as the technique is fully transformed before the Junior Officer selection starts, then practice it deeply—there’s plenty of time.

There’s nearly a year before the Junior Officer selection, so time is very sufficient.

Moreover, the Heavenly Chaos Demon Technique has many strong methods; he planned to find time to practice these as well.

Time swiftly passed, sunset and sunrise, and a day was gone in an instant.

...

At dawn, as sunrise began, Lin Feng left his residence and headed toward the Martial Arts Arena in Black Brilliance City.

Because he had Soul Searched Wu Chen’s memories, he was not unfamiliar with the Martial Arts Arena, which is the place where the Witch Clan of Black Brilliance City dueled.

Within the Martial Arts Arena, one could engage in life-and-death battles, gambling battles, and even beast fights—it’s a place filled with bloodshed in Black Brilliance City.

Before long, Lin Feng arrived at the Martial Arts Arena.

The Martial Arts Arena seemed like a city within a city, spanning over dozens of miles, with high battle platforms and tier upon tier of circular stands as soon as one entered through the grand entrance.

This was an arena that could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, with a grand and imposing scale.

"Flame Lion, burn it to death!"

"White Armored Beast, tear it to pieces!"

"Roar! Roar! Roar!!"

The Martial Arts Arena was a cacophony of noise, with the stands packed densely with members of the Witch Clan, and the sounds of shouting and yelling were constantly in the air.

At this moment, on the battle platform, two fierce beasts were fighting; one was a lion engulfed entirely in flames, while the other was a beast covered in white scale armor, resembling yet not resembling a monkey.

Both fierce beasts stood over ten zhang tall, with overwhelming ferocity, continually clawing at each other on the nearly ten-mile circumference of the battle platform.

This was a beast fight, considered a type of gambling battle, where spectators could place bets.

Both of these fierce beasts possessed Martial Emperor Realm strength, and every collision between them was incredibly powerful, causing the platform to tremble, with surging airwaves rolling out in all directions.

However, the platform was reinforced with an array, and a large array formation shield had been set up above it, completely isolating the impact.

As Lin Feng stepped into the Martial Arts Arena, he found numerous gazes landing on him from the stands.

Many people had already been waiting for him!

The events of yesterday had already spread throughout Black Brilliance City, and while it did not cause a huge sensation, it did attract some interest.

After all, Wu Chen’s animalistic behavior was quite despicable.

Lin Feng’s gaze swept across the arena, and he soon spotted Wu Lie and Wu Yu’er, both staring coldly at him.

Wu Lie had a mocking smile hanging at the corner of his mouth.

Aside from Wu Lie and Wu Yu’er, Wu Tianyu, Wu Changyuan, and others who were at the Earth Spirit Tower yesterday, were also all present.

Lin Feng remained expressionless, finding an empty seat in the stands and flew over to take a seat.

The beast fight continued, and he naturally had to wait for it to conclude before taking the stage.

Lin Feng did not wait long; within half an hour, the two beasts decided the victor, with the White Armored Beast being burned to ash by the Flame Lion.

The battle platform was quickly cleaned by a middle-aged elder of the Witch Clan, and even the victorious Flame Lion was not spared, being beheaded by the elder with a wave of his hand, dealt with alongside the rest.

Then, the entire Martial Arts Arena fell into a brief silence, with no more battles taking place temporarily, and the gazes of the crowd hovered around Lin Feng, Wu Lie, and Wu Yu’er.

Clearly, everyone was waiting for the duel between the three of them.

Swoosh!

A sound broke through the air, and the tall Wu Lie, clad in a red robe, flew down onto the platform.

"Beast Wu Chen, come down and face your death!" Wu Lie’s gaze directly locked onto Lin Feng, coldly shouting, his voice filled with dense killing intent.

Lin Feng’s expression was indifferent, rising to his full height, stepping out and landing on the platform, looking at Wu Lie from ten miles apart.

The Martial Arts Arena became deathly silent, the real show was about to begin—this was a life-and-death duel between two clansmen, not like the earlier beast fight.

However, no one had any expectations for ’Wu Chen,’ because despite Wu Chen having decent talent, it was not heard he had the capability to battle opponents above his level.

"Wu Chen, did you see that White Armored Beast earlier? You’ll meet the same fate soon!" Wu Lie chuckled lightly, his eyes emitting a burst of killing intent, dazzling and fierce.

Without saying more, he clenched his iron fist, with a red glow shining brightly, filled with scorching heat.

"Hold on!" Just as Wu Lie was about to strike, Lin Feng suddenly spoke to stop him.

"What? Realized you’re afraid now? But it’s already too late!" Wu Lie sneered at his words, his face full of ridicule.

He thought Lin Feng was scared!

Lin Feng ignored Wu Lie and turned his gaze to Wu Yu’er, who still sat on the stands, saying loudly, "You come down too! So I can deal with both of you at once!"

Everyone was stunned by Lin Feng’s words, and then they all reacted with astonishment.

Could it be? Wu Chen actually wanted to take on two?
