Chapter 455: The Storm of the Arena of Life and Death
“What? A Mahayana cultivator challenging a Heaven Immortal? Is this person to be funny? Do they think they’re in some kind of show?”
“That Mahayana cultivator’s must be nuts! Does he want to die?!”
“Who is this Mahayana cultivator? I really want to see him.”
“Zhu Xiaoming! You don’t even know that!”
“Zhu Xiaoming? Then the person he’s challenging is…”
“Who else could it be? It’s that Cuckold Man!”
“D*mn! This news is too shocking! Could it be fake?”
“How could it be fake news!
“A few minutes ago, Zhu Xiaoming had solemnly announced this in front of everyone at the Dao Technique Chamber.
“Someone even recorded it using high-tech equipment.
“It can’t be fake!”
“D*mn, this is the big show of the year! Did the Cuckold Man respond?”
“Isn’t that obvious? This is everything the Cuckold Man wanted.
“He was cuckolded by Zhu Xiaoming.
“This time, Zhu Xiaoming personally delivered himself to the doorstep. He would wake up laughing even in his sleep.”
“When will the duel begin?”
“Noon today!
“Many people have already rushed over.
“If you go over now, there probably won’t be any seats left.”
“D*mn it, why didn’t you say so earlier!”
“I just got the news too!”
“Forget it, let’s not talk about it anymore! I’ll rush over now.”
…
The Arena of Life and Death at the headquarters of the Luo Ding Sect was not built inside the sect. Instead, it was located on a cliff tens of thousands of kilometers away from the sect.
To the disciples at the headquarters, such a long distance could be covered in minutes.
Not long after Qin Chuan’s announcement, many disciples rushed over.
The cliff where the Arena of Life and Death was located was originally a mountain peak that was more than 10,000 meters tall.
In order to build the platform, an elder in the sect had leveled it with a single strike.
Its overall appearance was a huge cone-shaped platform.
The entire Life and Death Arena covered an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers but could only sit about 30,000 spectators.
The original intention of its construction was to resolve the conflict between the disciples.
The duels were not public.
Therefore, they did not leave much s.p.a.ce for the audience.
If it was to be increased, they could only add a few thousand more seats.
Only a few thousand was naturally far from enough.
It wouldn’t be of much use even if they were added, so they maintained the original number of seats.
At this moment, there weren’t many seats.
Those who came later could only stand or fly into the air to watch the battle.
It was still a long time before noon, but the audience was already in a heated discussion.
“Do you think Zhu Xiaoming is just joking? He’s just saying it, but he won’t actually come over.”
“I don’t think so.
“He said it in front of so many people. It didn’t seem like a comment made on the spur of the moment.
“However, if it really was, there’s nothing to say about it either.
“After all, there’s such a huge difference in realms. If he comes over, he’s just looking for a beating… no… he’s just asking to die. ”
“Say, if he really comes.
“Would he be instantly killed? Or would he be able to withstand a few rounds?”
“Needless to say, it will definitely be an instant kill.
“Although Cuckold Man’s relations.h.i.+p matters aren’t smooth-sailing, he’s still a genius of the Sword Dao office after all. Now, he’s even a Heaven Immortal, while Zhu Xiaoming is only in the Mahayana Realm.
“The gap between them is huge. There’s basically no suspense.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“I don’t think so!” Someone expressed a different opinion.
“Since Zhu Xiaoming issued the challenge, he must have something prepared.
“I heard from a friend from the Disciplinary office that this Zhu Xiaoming is a body cultivator. He was completely fine after receiving 200 strokes of punishment.”
“Tss! So fierce! That’s 200 strokes! If it were me, I wouldn’t even be able to take two strokes, let alone 200.”
“That’s why! I think this duel is worth watching.”
“Although Cuckold Man is a Heaven Immortal, he just transcended the Immortal Tribulation not long ago. His realm is still unstable, and he can’t unleash his full strength.”
“Then don’t forget that Cuckold Man is also considered a genius of the Sword Dao office.
“Even if his realm is unstable, his strength still surpa.s.ses many people in the same realm. ”
“That’s true! I overlooked that, but no matter what, this duel will definitely be interesting.”
The discussions were intense, but no one was optimistic about Zhu Xiaoming.
However, Zhu Xiaoming’s ident.i.ty was very mysterious. Everyone was very curious about him.
Now, they only knew one thing. He was from another division. There was no other information.
It was as if he had appeared out of thin air, but the higher-ups had not investigated him. This meant that he was indeed a disciple of the Luo Ding Sect.
Dao Technique Chamber.
In the hall, only small groups of people were entering and exiting.
This was completely different from the past.
Those who didn’t know better would think that this sect had declined!
The reason why there were so few people was that everyone had gone to the Arena of Life and Death to watch the duel.
After all, the rumors earlier had spread like wildfire previously, and the story between them was a huge highlight.
Zhu Xiaoming had cuckolded Fan Zhibao, a genius disciple of the Sword Dao office.
This would be a great humiliation for any man.
Zhu Xiaoming had challenged Fan Zhibao again. He simply didn’t treat him as a human. He was too arrogant.
As time pa.s.sed, everyone in the hall slowly left, leaving only the receptionists.
The receptionists also wanted to watch this life-and-death duel, and all requested leave from the elders.
According to the rules of the Dao Technique Chamber, unless there was something especially important, leave would not be approved.
As almost all the disciples had gone to the Arena of Life and Death today, there was no longer any business for the Dao Technique Chamber. Therefore, the elders did not reject their leave application.
However, the Dao Technique Chamber could not be without any receptionists. Someone had to stay behind.
Gu Mengyao and Lu Yiping did not go.
Because of this matter, Gu Mengyao had once again become the center of attention.
Some said that the reason why Zhu Xiaoming overestimated himself and challenged Fan Zhibao definitely had to do with Gu Mengyao.
According to the rumors, Gu Mengyao still had feelings for Fan Zhibao and felt very guilty for making him a cuckold.
However, Zhu Xiaoming treated her so well, and she didn’t want to let him down.
So when Zhu Xiaoming found out, he was furious. He had worked so hard to woo his G.o.ddess, but she was still obsessed with her ex. He was afraid of losing her.
Therefore, in order not to lose Gu Mengyao, Zhu Xiaoming issued a challenge to Fan Zhibao.
Gu Mengyao was already used to these rumors.
However, she was quite worried about Zhu Xiaoming.
After all, the difference in their realms was so great.
If he were to go to the Arena of Life and Death, there was a high chance that Zhu Xiaoming wouldn’t return.
After the receptionists left, Gu Mengyao and Lu Yiping discussed how to stop this duel.
“Yiping, why don’t you go look for your great-grandfather?
“He’s an Immortal King, he should have the right,” Gu Mengyao said anxiously.
“It’s not like you don’t know. At my great-grandfather’s level, he’s probably in seclusion.
“I was just lucky the last time.”
“Then… is there no other way?” asked Gu Mengyao anxiously.
Lu Yiping patted Gu Mengyao’s shoulder and comforted her. “Mengyao, I know you’re worried about that fellow.
“But since he was the one who asked for the duel.
“Actually, you don’t have to be so worried. I don’t think Zhu Xiaoming is an impulsive person.
“Since he dared to challenge Fan Zhibao, he should be prepared.”
Gu Mengyao looked at Lu Yiping. “But Fan Zhibao is already in the Immortal realm. No matter how prepared he is as a Mahayana, he still can’t defeat him!”
“Who said that a Mahayana cultivator cannot defeat an Immortal?
“Look at those elites on the Chosen Roll. Any one of them can do it.”
Gu Mengyao said, “You said yourself that they’re a prodigy on the Chosen Roll, but is Zhu Xiaoming one?”
Lu Yiping smiled. “What if he is?”
Gu Mengyao was stunned for a moment before saying, “Yiping, now is not the time to joke around like this.”
“Have you never doubted his ident.i.ty?” Lu Yiping’s expression suddenly turned serious.
Gu Mengyao thought about it. She really hadn’t.
After all, she did not have any special feelings for this junior brother.
Lu Yiping was different. Because of her background, she did not have many troubles. She loved gossip when she was bored.
That day, when she learned from Gu Mengyao that this Junior Brother Zhu Xiaoming had an astonis.h.i.+ng amount of over a hundred million contribution points, she had secretly investigated him.
Zhu Xiaoming’s appearance was too sudden.
Furthermore, he was wearing a mask and not showing his face. He definitely did not want to be recognized.
There was also a very important piece of information. He only stayed in the Dao Technique Chamber.
Overall, Lu Yiping already had an idea.
She wondered if he was that man.
