Yang Feng nodded, looked at the list of all the gladiators in the first round, and said, "This list is divided very cleverly. The cultivators in the same city will not fight, and the main gladiators in each city will not meet."

Qian Lu explained: "This has always been like this. It was done on purpose. The principle of not fighting in the same city applies to the first round. After entering the second round, the number of gladiators promoted in each city is different. There is no way to ensure that the gladiators will not fight in the same city. For example, all the twelve people in a certain city won in the first round. When the second round, the fighting between the immortal cultivators will inevitably be arranged. In order to ensure the viewing of the gladiators, the main forces of each city will basically not encounter them in the first three rounds of competition. Their duels will basically appear after the quarterfinals."

At this time, the black-faced man said again: "Today, the eight-group of gladiators entered the gladiator stage. Other gladiators are waiting. The audience can go to bet. In an hour, the gladiator will officially begin."

Yang Feng and others began to evacuate. The stands were very noisy. Almost everyone stood up, left their seats, and went to the eight-seater docking platform to place bets.

The area of ​​the arena is too large. Even if it is high enough, it is completely impossible to watch eight gladiators at the same time. After choosing the betting object, these viewers will basically sit near the stands and wait for the first competition to begin.

The place where Yang Feng and others waited was a passage under the audience's stands, almost surrounding the entire arena.

There are windows in the passage. As long as you are willing to walk around, you can walk around the passage and see the situation of every gladiator stand outside.

Except for the sixteen people in the battle, the gladiators from various cities are here.

Almost all the immortal cultivators in Yangcheng who were in love with Gan Tu and He Bing went to the near the gladiatorium where they fought and watched the battle through the window of the passage.

A gladiator from Yangcheng sighed and said, "This Gan Tu is really unlucky. He met Tong Duan, the killing god in the first round. It seems that this competition has come to an end..."

Another person also sighed: "What's the solution? We are not the same. Don't talk about Tong Duan, even if you meet someone with better strength, how likely will you win?"

"Don't sigh anymore. Don't we have Li Yi? Why don't we see Li Yi?"

Only then did everyone realize that Li Yi, who was with them just now, had disappeared.

In the passage, there was an unmanned area, and Li Yi whispered to a tall middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I didn't expect that after I saw it last time, I haven't seen it for so many years. Your cultivation has made good progress, which makes me very envious."

Li Yi said: "Don't make fun of me, I won't beat around the bush. I'm here to find you this time, because there is something I want to ask for."

The middle-aged man stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Yi whispered: "The person you fight with today is named Yang Feng, who is from our Yangcheng. I hope you will kill him when you fight with him..."

It turns out that this middle-aged man is either someone else, or Yu Shun, a white city gladiator who is about to compete with Yang Feng.

"What? You have a holiday with him?"

Yu Shun asked with a hint of fun with her eyes, smiling and unhappy.

"Don't ask too much about this. In short, after the matter is done, there will be a good reward." Li Yi said with a smile.

"This matter is nothing wrong, I just don't know how Yang Feng's cultivation is?" Yu Shun nodded slightly and asked.

"When he participated in the fight at the Yangcheng Arena, I happened to go into seclusion and had never seen it with my own eyes. I just heard from others that this person had only opened up more than 40 tricks, but his combat power was quite good." Li Yi said.

"More than 40 places? How can I be qualified to participate in the Five Cities Competition? Don't you want to fool me?" Yu Shun said with suspicion.

"This person may have more than 40 tricks, but I think there are not many more people. I think he can participate in the Five City Competition because of his personal relationship with the new city lord. It seems that this person was brought back from outside by the new city lord back then." Li Yi explained.

"It's Yang Chen who usurped the throne? So that's it. If that's the case... This brother will help me." Yu Shun nodded and said.

"By the way, the skills this person practices seem to be dedicated to opening his legs. There may be an advantage in speed, so you should pay attention to it." Li Yi reminded.

"Don't say that he has more than forty tricks, even if he adds ten tricks, he can't be my opponent. You can rest assured that you just need to discuss the rewards after discussion..." Yu Shun smiled and said.

...

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and the first fight today finally kicked off.

Yang Feng and Qian Lu did not go to see anywhere else, and even Long Du and Yuan Xuan came to the window near the Gladiatorium and watched from above.

I saw that Gan Tu and Tong Duan had already appeared on the stage. The two stood opposite each other from afar, looking at each other.

Gan Tu's expression was a little solemn, with a hint of fear and a bit of hesitation and reluctance.

Tong Duan opposite had no expression on his face, and no contempt appeared in his eyes, but for some reason, Gan Tu always felt that he did not look at him, and a hint of anger arose in his heart.

An old man in black robe, as the referee of this gladiator, stood in the center of the two and said to them: "There is no rule for the gladiatorial battle. If you lose, you can admit defeat at any time. If you force yourself to hold on, you will be at your own risk."

Gan Tu and Tong Duan nodded at him at the same time, and the old man jumped and left the gladiator.

The two of them clasped their fists on the stage and the fight officially began.

On the high platform in the center of the eight gladiatoriums, five city lords and a lady Ruhua talked casually to each other. They didn't seem to be interested in the battles that were almost at the same time below, but they would occasionally look down.

Gan Tu's whole body kept banging, and the light flowed on his arms. The trick was so bright that he took the initiative to attack Tong Duan.

Every step he took, the gladiator thundered and the force was extremely strong.

Fortunately, the ground was strengthened by the star bones and was not cracked by the huge force that was trampled down continuously.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

...

After stepping out for dozens of steps, his aura suddenly surged several times. Under the sunlight, a golden light seemed to illuminate the right arm, and an invisible qi cyclone circled around. His arms seemed to have become a little thicker, and he punched Tong Duan.

Tong Duan just watched Gan Tu approaching step by step quietly without any movement. It was not until Gan Tu's punch hit him that he slowly took a step back.

I saw a cold light flashing in his eyes, and a punch was swung out, like lightning.

He immediately punched, and the light on his arm lighted up at the same time, and the sound of wind and thunder exploded.

There was a loud "boom" sound!

The two of them collided with each other, and a roar broke out.

A violent wave of air exploded from the point where the two fists fought each other and swept in the opposite direction.

Tong Duan's body remained motionless and stood still like a mountain of Tai, but Gan Tu burst out with a scream. Several tricks on his arm exploded at the same time. With a "crack" sound of broken bones, his body flew backwards and fell out.

I saw him falling out of the gladiator stage, rolling for several times, then his eyes turned black and he completely fainted.

A warm cheer suddenly broke out in the stands on the side of the Gladiatorium.

Everyone on the platform couldn't help but stop chatting and looked over here.

"You Tong Duan in Tongcheng seems to have improved a little more. The battle ended so quickly?" Fan Kuai asked with a smile.

"It's just a small person's progress, and it's still far from your fellow Taoist Yuan Zhu." Jian Fu said.

"While the opponent is not strong enough, it is also amazing enough..." Yuan Qing said with a smile.

Everyone said something, and I praised Tong Duan in one word, only Yang Chen was silent. Although his face remained calm, his hands hidden in his sleeves were tightly clenched. Because he tried too hard, his joints were slightly white.

In the passage, the expressions of the immortal cultivators in Yangcheng were a little ugly. Although they were not the ones who lost, they were defeated in the first battle and were defeated so thoroughly. They could not help but feel a little disappointed in morale. They shook their heads and sighed and walked away. Only Yang Feng and Qian Lu remained in place.

Seeing Gan Tu being carried away by someone on the gladiator stage, Yang Feng asked, "Qian Lu, what do you think?"

Qian Lu frowned and said, "It's much stronger than when he lost to me back then. In addition, Gan Tu's powerful Vajra Tribunal, he didn't use his right arm, but just used the ordinary arm of his left hand and defeated Gan Tu with one punch. Obviously, in his eyes, Gan Tu was not worthy of being his opponent at all."

Yang Feng was silent for a moment and said, "It's not all. When he punched out, he still used his right arm to use his strength. Otherwise, Gan Tu had obviously used all his strength and wouldn't have lost so badly. But overall, the gap between the two people's strength is still too big."

Qian Lu said regretfully: "Yes, if his strength can be stronger, he can force Tong Duan to show more methods."

Yang Feng smiled and said, "Haha, don't think too much, we should prepare too, the second round of competition will begin soon."

Qian Lu nodded and said, "Let's go!"

...

An hour later, all the fights in the first round came to an end, so why bother to lose without any surprises?

Afterwards, he took two hours to settle the first bet, and the second competition kicked off.
Chapter completed!
