The Lord of the Universe
Ch.481 - First Round
Grub 1 attendees are taken to a Colosseum by Elder Gong Lang. There the participants were in the audience stands while Elder Gong Lang was in the middle of the arena. He will be the referee in this round.
“Is this a one on one fight or will there be something else?” Xiang Shin muttered inwardly.
“Because we are now in the Colosseum so you should be able to guess this third round!..
Aye! The third round is a one-on-one fight. Participants will be randomly selected and will fight in the arena. There will only be 20 participants left in this round. So prepare yourself!” Elder Gong Lang took out a 2-meter-high furnace-like object then performed a hand seal.
“Now see your participant tokens!”
All participants including Xiang Shin and Xiang Shui saw their participant tokens. There are different numbers in each participant token.
Elder Gong Lang floated 5 meters high above the furnace. He let out a wave of energy that hit the furnace.
The furnace let out a loud sound.2 small plates bounced out of the furnace and Elder Gong Lang caught it.
“Number 356 and number 256 rise to the top of the arena!” Elder Gong Lang called the participants based on the number he got.
Two players jumped into the arena. They were two men who were both muscular, only one of them had white skin and the other was black.
“Anyone who loses will hand over their participant tokens.” Said Elder Gong Lang.
Both of them had prepared for the fight after introducing themselves.
“Start!”
Without further ado, the two of them instantly attacked each other, putting on a fierce fight over the Colosseum arena.
The other participants looked at the fight carefully because it was possible that between the two people would later become their opponents so they could be more vigilant if they knew his strength.
The fight went on for hours before the man in black came out victorious despite considerable injuries.
Using some formation methods, Elder Gong Lang took out a participant token from the dimensional ring of the white man then gave it to the black man.
Some people who were members of the Heaven Shrine Sect came to bring the fainted white man into the treatment room while the black man returned to the spectator stands to make a recovery.
Elder Gong saw that the arena had been destroyed by the fight earlier. It performed a hand seal, activating the formation array that made the arena return to its original state in an instant.
“It looks like this Elder Gong is a formation expert. It was possible that he was the strongest formation expert in the Heaven Shrine Sect.” Xiang Shui glanced at his father as if to offend him.
“If you want to compare me to him, in terms of ability and technique, obviously he is above me. But in terms of understanding I'm sure to be on top of it.”
Although Xiang Shin's cultivation was far below that of Elder Gong Lang, yet he had already gained a lot of understanding from the legacy of Xiang Shin Palace.
Recalling about Xiang Shin Palace, Xiang Shin became reminded of his adopted daughter, Xiang Fei. I don't know where his daughter is right now, I hope he's fine there and he can meet her later.
“Number 35 and number 132!”
Xiang Shui smiled when he heard the number called Elder Gong Lang. That's the number of the participant.
“Dad, it looks like I should go ahead first.” Xiang Shui stood up.
“If you can defeat your opponent, dad will reward you.”
“What gift?” Xiang Shui raised his eyebrows.
“Look who your opponent is!”
Xiang Shui turned his head to the arena where his opponent was already standing there. She was a beautiful woman in black clothes.
“Then?” Xiang Shui turned to look at his father.
“I will give you the technique of seducing beautiful girls,” Xiang Shin raises his thumb with a strange smile.
Xiang Shui looked at his father lazily then jumped into the arena, no longer caring about Xiang Shin.
Xiang Shui landed not far in front of the girl.
“Xiang Shui.”
“Yu Ren.”
The two met briefly. The girl looked cold, looking at Xiang Shui intently.
“Start!”
As Elder Gong started the fight, Yu Ren took out his sword but did not directly attack.
“You didn't use your weapon?”
“I don't want to hurt a pretty girl like you.”
Xiang Shui pecked as the voice came out of his mouth without him expecting it. He turned his head towards his father who was still sitting in the stands while giving his thumb.
“Sial! Since when did he plant the magic formation on me!” Xiang Shui shouted in annoyance in his heart.
It was already confirmed that he spoke like that because Xiang Shin set up a certain magic formation array on his body without him noticing.
