Chapter 131 City Lord Layouts Gladiatorial Tournament
In the Palace of the Lord of the Great Desolate City, Lin Minghao, the lord of the city, was sitting behind a long table inlaid with gold silk reliefs, looking at a bowl of red liquid.
He touched the rim of the bowl with his finger, shook the liquid inside slightly, and asked, "Is this the wine from Jueqing Suixinzhuang?"
On the opposite side of the long table stood an orderer, it was Lin Zou, who just came back yesterday.
Lin Zou not only went to Qianyunzong to check according to the order of the city lord, but also deliberately squeezed out time to go to Jueqing Suixinzhuang.
He cupped his hands and reported to Lin Minghao: "The bet between Mingkong Aoqing and Ge Wuqing was made at Jueqing Suixin Zhuang, when Ge Wuqing invited Qian Yunzong to a congratulatory banquet.
This is the wine on the banquet, bought from a disciple who privately kept it. "
Lin Minghao didn't drink the wine, but pushed the bowl aside, and asked: "I've heard about wine, it's made from an extremely rare fruit, Ge Wuqing is not considered a generous person, the banquet must not be that simple.
Lin Zou, did you find out what happened at the congratulatory banquet? "
"No, all the disciples of Heartless Suixinzhuang kept silent about the content of the banquet, and it's not easy for me to arrest people and torture them."
Lin Minghao nodded: "Well, what's the situation with Qian Yunzong?"
"Back to the city lord, I took the portrait to ask relatives, no one knew Zheng Qiu, but..."
"What is the problem?"
"City lord, but I can't get in touch with disciples with higher seniority. Qian Yunzong seems to have strengthened the management of disciples."
"Ming Kong Aoqing is probably catching mice in the sect." Lin Minghao knocked on the table, and said in a deep voice, "Yesterday, the person surnamed Wang took Zheng Qiu to see Ming Zong, which means that Zheng Qiu has made progress in cultivation.
You go and arrange a match for Liesha Fighting Group, I want to see what Ming Zong taught. "
"yes!"
In the training ground of the Liesha Gladiator Group, Zheng Qiu practiced the fingering in "Green Green Art" day after day. He has already mastered the part of folding the flower finger, and the speed of performing it is getting faster and faster.
But other than that, there are problems.
In the other part, there are a total of thirty-three fingerings. Starting from the first fingering, the more subsequent fingerings release more energy, and the consumption increases exponentially.
Zheng Qiu can only perform the tenth fingering now, after that his fingers will not be able to withstand the impact of energy, and the skin will burst and bleed.
He had thought that the energy released from his fingers would punch holes in the stone like the energy released by other gladiators.
But the result disappointed him greatly. No matter what kind of fingering technique was used, the white energy sprayed from the fingertips would shatter into pieces in an instant after touching the stone surface.
He also tried changing the lantern paper, but he couldn't even make a hole, so he might as well poke it with his finger.
For this situation, he asked Master Wang many times, hoping to find a solution.
However, Master Wang told him that this is the way of grass and trees, and Qi Jin itself has no offensive power at all.
Such an answer made Zheng Qiu even more confused. Since Qi Jin has no attack power, why can folding the flower finger break the stone? It is inconsistent.
One day at noon, Zheng Qiu stayed in the stone house where he lived, leaning over the window to watch the gladiators enter the cafeteria.
He hadn't eaten for three consecutive days, but he didn't feel hungry at all. On the contrary, his stomach was full, as if he had eaten something he couldn't digest.
The seven orifices still emit white gas from time to time,
Now he also understands that this is the result of too much energy in his body.
Some time ago, he meditated and introspected, and went into the meridians to check. The originally empty meridians had already been filled with shiny white clouds, and the place where the sea of qi was originally was an endless sea of clouds.
After wandering around in the sea of clouds for a long time, he finally found the light green cloud.
The light green clouds are the same as before, without any change. It's just that the white clouds surrounding it are constantly surging with newborns, merging into the sea of clouds one after another.
Coughing, coughing up a puff of white air, Zheng Qiu saw Ermao and Ma Peng running out of the cafeteria in a hurry and rushing towards the stone house.
The ear cat ran fast, stepped into the room first, and shouted loudly: "Zheng Qiu, big thing, big thing!"
Later, Ma Peng also entered the house and nodded solemnly: "It's really a big deal."
Zheng Qiu looked at Ma Peng, who was close to an adult in size, and then at the eared cat who was obviously stronger than himself, and asked, "What's the big deal, you two are so nervous."
The eared cat added: "Not only nervousness, but also fear, excitement, and anxiety..."
Ma Peng interrupted him and explained: "Coach Meng received the news from the gladiatorial group that there is a bounty gladiatorial competition in the Lonely Arena, and the Liesha Group has already signed up for it. Our opponent is the Gale Wolf Fighting Group."
Zheng Qiu blinked, unable to understand why Ermao and Ma Peng were so excited: "Oh, that's it. You two are betting on money, are you so excited?"
"Where did we get the money!" Seeing that Zheng Qiu didn't understand, Ermao hurriedly popularized his knowledge, "The three of us have to participate in the bounty gladiatorial competition!"
"We want to participate too? Why? Aren't there so many gladiators in the regiment with higher cultivation bases than us, so there is no need for us to play."
Ma Peng sighed, sat on the stone bench and explained to Zheng Qiu carefully.
Bounty gladiatorial competition, as the name suggests, the reward for winning the competition is money, but to participate in this kind of competition, you must abide by special competition rules, which are formulated by the person who pays the bounty.
In this bounty gladiatorial competition, the participating gladiators are required to fight one-on-one, and the outcome will be determined by the disabled, coma, or loss of combat power.
The competition is in the form of group points. The two gladiatorial groups each have their own players, and the side that wins the heads-up will get a point. In the end, whichever group has the fewest points will be eliminated.
In addition to these common rules, the person who paid the bounty also set a special rule. One-on-one duels must be of the same age. If one side does not have a gladiator of the same age, the other side will be judged to be the winner.
The eared cat stood beside him and counted with his fingers: "Zheng Qiu, you and Ma Peng are both in their early ten years old, and I am only ten years old after the Chinese New Year. Anyway, both of them are in the range of ten years old.
Coach Meng said that there are five gladiators of this age in the Gale Wolf Fighting Group. "
Ma Peng nodded: "Yes, that is to say, no matter how we get out, the three of us will play."
"Although this competition does not require life and death, it will also be disabled. I don't want to lose arms or legs." The eared cat stuck out its tongue and asked its companion, "I should have reached the Qi control state now, how about you?"
Ma Peng spread his broad palms and replied: "I'm learning beast body training, and there is no such distinction between realms, but according to my estimation, I should be able to fight against an opponent in the realm of controlling energy."
After listening to the narration of the two, Zheng Qiu couldn't help but feel nervous. He just joined the wrestling troupe not long ago, and he was going to fight people in the arena. Apart from folding his fingers, he seemed to have no tricks to beat people.
He scratched his head and said, "I-I don't know either, maybe I've reached the Qi-Repelling Realm. I'd better ask Master Wang, he must know."
