0650. Arena Battle (2)

This is obvious, he is provoking Li Mu.

And it was a naked and humiliating provocation in public.

Everyone's eyes moved down from the ring and fell on Li Mu.

But that faceless silver mask blocked all of Li Mu's expressions, making it impossible for others to see through his face what Li Mu was thinking.

But everyone believed that Li Yidao was probably really dead.

All the geniuses had more or less heard about what happened in the past two days. A steward who had gone to the camp of the [Little Heavenly Demon] was killed. Later, the sixth and eleventh princes were rejected in different ways. It is said that after returning, he was so angry that he killed several palace maids and eunuchs. Even the Holy Emperor of the Baiyu Dynasty was said to have been alarmed. He wanted to accuse Li Yidao of being arrogant and contemptuous, but he was stopped by the messenger of the Tianhu clan.

"Li Yidao is selected as the genius. Before the battle in the ring, no one is allowed to touch him. If after the battle in the ring, he is not among the top ten and is not dead, you can do whatever you want with him."

These are the original words of the messenger from the Sky Fox Clan.

Li Yidao's crazy reputation has spread throughout the palace because of this.

…

The ring battle continues.

[Little Demon] The bloody killing in the first battle set the tone of brutal killing for this sixty-to-ten arena battle.

In the second battle, the second-ranked [Fairy Saint Son] from the Temple of Destruction burned his opponent into ashes with a direct breath of fairy fire.

In the third battle, the Holy Son of the Sea of ​​Blood reversed the blood in his opponent's body and turned it into murderous intent, bursting alive a junior general-level bear demon.

The blood soon turned the arena red.

So much so that after the tenth battle, the ring battle had to be suspended, and the palace guards had to come on stage to clean up the blood and broken corpses.

In the first ten ring battles, no one who lost survived.

In the eleventh game, there was finally a waiver.

A half-step general from the Python Clan gave up and withdrew from the competition.

As the first genius to quit timidly, he was naturally shrouded in countless disdainful looks.

But his expression was very shocked, and he did not feel ashamed at all. Instead, he said calmly and honestly: "I came to participate in the martial arts contest to find a bride, not to die. If I still dared to step onto the ring knowing that I was defeated, I was here to die, and I will die." Meaningless."

Carrying a long black python-patterned stick on his back, this burly young man from the Python Niu tribe turned around and strode away from the palace.

There was a sound of ridicule behind him.

But Li Mu suddenly felt that this strong man from the Python Niu tribe might be able to do something in the future.

The killing continues.

When the twelfth ring battle ended, the loser's body was kicked off the ring, and the blood soaked into the gaps between the stone slabs. The pitiful human race young man's screams for mercy before he died seemed to still echo in the ring. Above, the atmosphere suddenly became cruel.

In the thirteenth match, the lower ranked team finally chose to admit defeat directly.

Before, he was still laughing at the genius of the Python Niu Clan who turned away, but now, he finally understood the meaning of taking a step back.

"This is a pointless fight."

He also turned and left.

With these two beginnings, in the subsequent battle in the ring, one after another people simply chose to give up and admit defeat, knowing that they were definitely not their opponents.

Of course, there are also people who choose to fight to the death, only to be defeated and lose their lives.

It is said that the rules of the ring battle are that there is a loser bracket, but now it seems that if you lose, you will lose your life, and it seems that there will be no survivors in the loser bracket.

Finally, it was Li Mu's turn.

Li Mu's opponent was the challenger Lin Buyan.

Li Mu walked onto the ring step by step.

Lin Buyan looked at Li Mu and said, "I will never show mercy."

Li Mu said nothing and held the handle of the knife behind him with his backhand.

The long sword at Lin Buyan's waist was not yet unsheathed.

Suddenly, there was a flash of sword light on the ring.

The battle is over.

Lin Buyan was directly knocked out from the ring by the sword and fell to the ground.

Everyone was in a trance.

The sword strike just now was so fast, like lightning, like a dream.

No one could see clearly how Li Mu used the sword.

Some people even doubted whether Li Mu actually drew his sword at that moment.

Anyway, Lin Buyan himself was extremely confused.

He didn't even realize what happened and was knocked off the ring.

He got up and looked at his whole body. There was no injury at all. He was about to say something.

Bang!

The long sword on his waist suddenly turned into soot and powder with a bang and dissipated in the air.

Lin Buyan's expression suddenly changed wildly.

Only then did he realize that the gap between him and Li Yidao was more than just a natural chasm.

"You..." He looked up at Li Mu, and finally cupped his hands bitterly and said, "Thank you for your mercy."

After saying that, he turned around and left with a desolate look.

He was the first loser to leave the ring alive today.

Compared with what he said on the ring, "I will never show mercy," it seems very ironic.

There was no expression on Li Mu's faceless mask. He walked off the ring without saying a word and returned to his seat.

"Sir, you are so awesome."

The little fox girl Bi Yan clenched her fists excitedly and came over to squeeze Li Mu's shoulders.

Her little face was a little flushed with excitement.

When Li Mu entered the ring before, she was nervous and worried about Li Mu.

Since that night, great changes have taken place in this palace maid.

The previous respectfulness and obedience cultivated through countless etiquette trainings have completely disappeared from her body, replaced by a kind of liveliness that is like a little girl's nature being released, and there is a kind of innocence that can only be seen after washing away the brilliance. Pure nature.

Li Mu closed his eyes and rested his mind.

On the surface, he is calm and calm, showing the demeanor of a master, which is eye-catching.

In fact, what Li Mu was thinking in his heart was sighing.

Alas, the sugar-coated bullets of capitalism corrode people, corrupt them, and make them extravagant. Where have I ever enjoyed such personal service and service from beautiful women before?

The next arena battle begins.

The sounds of fierce fighting and impact echoed in the ring.

But many people's minds were still immersed in Li Mu's knife just now.

Can't see through.

Can't see through.

Can't see clearly.

What kind of sword technique is that?

Some people were secretly awestruck, wondering how they would fight if they met Li Mu.

Some people sneered and didn't take the sword seriously.

At sunset that day, the first round ended in the ring.

Perhaps it was because the strength gap between the warring geniuses was so big that the longest battle only lasted for a cup of tea.

A total of eight of the top sixty geniuses gave up and left, twenty-one died on the spot, and one left defeated.

The person who left after defeat was none other than Lin Buyan.

That is to say, except for Lin Buyan, the madman who challenged the madman, all the other losers who entered the ring were brutally killed.

Li Mu was the only winner who won without killing anyone.

As night falls, the first day of the ring battle ends.

The geniuses who entered the top thirty returned to their respective stone palaces to adjust their breathing and prepare for the more brutal battle that was to come the next day.

After Li Mu returned to his stone palace, he took a bath in the spiritual spring under the care of the little fox girl, and then returned to the quiet room to concentrate on practice.

The little fox girl cleaned the stone palace, then sat on the steps of the stone palace, holding her chin with her hands, not knowing what she was thinking.

When the moon rose, she knelt devoutly in the moonlight, clasping her hands together in prayer.

"Honorable Moon God, please protect the young master. If you win the ring battle tomorrow, even if you don't win, you must be safe... As long as you promise me, Bi Yan is willing to pay any price!"

The moonlight shone on the face of this pretty little fox girl, as if it was covered with a layer of divine light.

…

…

The second day.

The battle in the ring continues.

The first one to take the stage was [Little Demon] again.

This time, his opponent, a young man from the Green Snake Tribe, simply chose to give up and admit defeat.

This young man was originally lucky to survive. If he didn't meet a particularly strong opponent along the way, he might be able to 'sneak' into the top ten with his own strength. But who knew that he would encounter the evil star [Little Demon] in the second round? Abstain from voting, not taking any chances.

[Little Demon] stood on the ring, raised his fingers at Li Mu, and said: "When the time comes, even if you give up, I won't let you go."

Li Mu sat in his seat and said nothing, as if he had not heard anything.

Then, the opponents of the Immortal Saint Son and the Blood Sea Saint Son also chose to abstain.

Then two acquaintances of Li Mu appeared.

As a woman, the scimitar girl insisted on participating in this competition to find a bride. Yesterday she behaved very cruelly. She was so angry that she cut her opponent into pieces because of her opponent's teasing remarks. Today, she went on stage again and became even more violent. Just because her opponent subconsciously smiled at her again, it directly stimulated her into a violent state, directly slashing the young master of the Snow Wolf Tribe to severe injuries and forcing her to jump off the ring.

The young man in black clothes and carrying a sword only used three swords to defeat the heir apparent of the Xingwan family.

Li Mu was quite surprised.

These two 'acquaintances', who used to have almost the same cultivation strength as the Holy Son of Blood Sea, how come they have become so strong now after not seeing each other for several years?

The speed of growth in strength was actually no better than that of Li Mu himself, who had many adventures.

It seems that they either have a lucky chance, or the forces behind them should not be underestimated, at least not weaker than the sea of ​​blood.

When it was finally Li Mu's turn to take the stage, the little fox demon Biyan clenched her fists nervously, and her nails pierced into her palms without even noticing.

Li Mu's opponent is the young chief of the Golden Eagle Clan.

In yesterday's battle, the young patriarch used a pair of sharp claws to tear his opponent into pieces. It was a brutal killing.

"You will die in an ugly way." The young leader of the Golden Eagle Clan stared at Li Mu, licked his lips and said, "Today, I will kill you on behalf of Mr. Heavenly Demon."

"Oh?" Li Mu looked paralyzed and said indifferently: "It turns out to be the dog raised by [Little Demon]."

"What did you say? We are even on the same page, and we have the same goals. You..." The young leader of the Golden Eagle Clan was a little bit internally hurt by Li Mu's words. He indeed wanted to make friends with the Heavenly Demon Sect, and the Golden Eagle Clan had an alliance with the Heavenly Demon Sect. , but when Li Mu said this, he still vomited blood and roared angrily.

"Hmm. Mad dogs and mad dogs should get along with each other." Li Mu said indifferently.

A paralyzed face with no facial features, there is an inexplicable feeling of ridicule doubled.

The young leader of the Golden Eagle Tribe decided to give up this method of dialogue.

"I'll tear you apart." He glared angrily, running his skills, and his hands turned into golden claws. Mysterious runes densely flowed between the claws. Inexplicable divine power flowed, and the general's pressure permeated the entire arena. , all dyed gold.

The golden eagle is also a alien species from the galaxy. It is endowed with extremely terrifying magical powers and can tear apart the void.

Around the ring, everyone changed their colors slightly.

The young master of the Golden Eagle Clan is definitely strong enough to rank among the top ten.

It seems that in yesterday's battle, he still hid some strength.

In the crowd, the little fox girl Bi Yan was so nervous that she forgot to breathe. She clenched her fists and cheered for Li Mu in her heart.

On the ring, Li Mu's hand slowly touched the handle of the knife behind his left shoulder.
