Grotto No. 3.

Junlong Plaza.

In front of the "Dragon's Head" statue, the lottery ceremony for the "Inheritor" primary selection has been carried out halfway.

In the crowd, those who won the "lottery" were all sure to win and were full of confidence; those who were drawn to the "next lottery" were like frosted eggplants wilting on the side, their faces like dead ashes, like mourning and examining.

Shen Tufei successfully hugged the "Buddha's feet", drew a "half-step E-level" martial artist, smiled from ear to ear, and kowtowed a few times to the statue of the "dragon's head" on the ground.

Chen Yuan stood aside, seeing the different reactions of everyone, he was embarrassed in his heart.

Although the process of drawing lots is short, it can determine life and death in an instant.

As Shen Tufei said, the "dragon head" will never let go of anyone who knows the secrets in the cave.

Those who are drawn to "sign lots" are equivalent to being sentenced to death in advance.

Even if you are not killed by your opponent in the gladiatorial arena, you will be killed by someone sent by the "dragon head".

If Chen Yuan was allowed to choose by himself, he would rather die on the stage than let the "dragon head" dispose of himself personally.

After all, what he saw and heard in the elegant room that day had left a lot of "shadows" in his heart.

After a while, the draw ceremony was coming to an end.

In front of the statue, a backbone member of the "Shadow" organization shouted loudly: "The one hundred and third Chen Yuan, automatically match the third 'inheritor' Qiu Hu'er ......!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and looked sideways at Chen Yuan.

A few "Kill Matt" who were scared enough by Chen Yuan just now suddenly came to their senses, some laughed strangely, some whistled, and looked like they were too much to beat.

Liu Baihe turned around and looked at Chen Yuan, with a gloating look on his face: "Retribution comes so fast, you draw 'Qiu Fox', you kid doesn't know how to die." ”

Shen Tufei saw that Chen Yuan was facing "Qiu Fox", and he couldn't help but have a sad face.

Chen Yuan was the last to enter the hole, and the draw order was also ranked last, so he could directly match his opponent without drawing lots.

Although this matching method deprives Chen Yuan of the right to draw lots, it will not have much impact on the final result.

Shen Tufei never expected that Chen Yuan's luck was so bad that he actually ran into Qiu Hu'er, a "super five-star powerhouse" who ranked among the top three in strength among the hundred.

I couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in my heart, and I stood aside and sighed for a long time.

In contrast, Chen Yuan seemed very calm.

In the face of the cynicism of the people around him, his expression remained the same.

For him, infiltrating the "Shadow" organization was originally a "nine deaths" adventure.

In order to cope with today's situation, he has long been well prepared.

Moreover, Chen Yuan has been forced to a situation where there is no retreat from the "dragon head", for the sake of himself and his relatives and friends, he must do his best to defeat one powerful opponent after another and achieve the final victory.

......

So far, all the ninety-four "inheritors" have been drawn.

Su Zhennan walked slowly to the front of the statue, looked around at the dense crowd in front of him, and said loudly: "Right now, each of you has matched your opponent, and the duel will officially start in ten minutes, there is only one rule for the 'primary election', kill the other party, or be killed by the other party, the winning side will directly enter the next round of 'grabbing positions' and compete for the place in the 'final selection', and the losing side will not need me to say more about the end, you know it yourself." ”

As soon as he said this, there was silence in the array.

The faces of those "inheritors" who were drawn to the "next sign" all turned pale.

Su Zhennan ignored the reactions of these people, and continued: "On the north side of the square, four gladiatorial arenas A, B, C, and D have been laid out. You will be randomly assigned to a duel in various venues. ”

"When dueling, it is allowed to carry a blade, and you can also use any means including Gu poison and hidden weapons, as long as you can kill the opponent, there is no taboo!"

"Even Gu poison and hidden weapons can be used, and they can play. ”

Chen Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a sneer.

On the surface, the "shadow" organization is looking for a "successor" for the "dragon head", but in fact, it is purely to cultivate a group of killers with vicious methods and no feelings.

First use various means to catch more than 100 "inheritors" here, put them in the same space, live together, and wait for everyone to get along for a while, and then force them to fight on stage, fighting to the death.

This practice is enough to extinguish all emotions in people's hearts.

Let them lose their minds in order to survive, and swing the butcher knife in their hands at their former companions until they kill the opponent in the "gladiatorial arena".

In addition, the point of "allowing the use of Gu poison and hidden weapons" also refreshed Chen Yuan's three views again.

In the regular martial arts competition, Gu poison and hidden weapons are usually recognized as "sideways", which are despised by people in martial arts.

Su Qingxuan's public support for the use of Gu poison and hidden weapons not only seriously violated the spirit of modern martial arts, but also exposed his sinister intentions to achieve his goals.

Chen Yuan was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a commotion from the front row.

Looking up, a giant holographic screen five meters long and two meters wide suddenly appeared in front of the statue, showing four dark purple boxes, marked with the words A, B, C, and D respectively.

Immediately after, a dense string of names and serial numbers flashed on the screen, scattered into four squares.

Chen Yuan took a closer look and found that he was assigned to the gladiatorial arena "D", and the order of appearance was the second to the last.

Shen Tufei was assigned to the gladiatorial arena "A", and the order of appearance was third.

Chen Yuan glanced at Shen Tufei and said with a smile: "You are really fateful, if you draw a 'five-star powerhouse', what are you going to do?"

Shen Tufei laughed and said: "Don't worry, brother, I have the blessing of my ancestors, and I will be able to turn evil into good fortune and everything will go well." ”

looked at Chen Yuan, and said, "It's you, you really have to pay attention to it." Qiu Hu'er is by no means good at his peers, not only is he skilled, but he is also brilliant in his secret weapon kung fu, you will face him for a while, you must be careful to beware of his secret weapon. ”

"Got it," Chen Yuan nodded slightly.

"I must live," Shen Tufei put his hand on Chen Yuan's shoulder and said angrily, "I'm still waiting for you to take me out." ”

"Don't worry," Chen Yuan said with a smile, "I'm hard-hitting, so I'm not so easy to die." ”

Shen Tufei saw that he looked relaxed, and the worry in his heart was slightly relieved, and he grinned: "Okay, come on, each of you, when I'm done fighting, I'll go over and watch you duel." ”

The two chatted a few more words, and walked to the two gladiatorial arenas A and D respectively.

Chen Yuan came to the gladiatorial arena marked with the serial number "D" and looked up at the stage.

It is a ten-meter-square platform.

The top is supported by steel bars, covered with thick wooden planks, and surrounded by a thick black iron chain.

When he was young, a backbone member of the "Shadow" organization stepped up to the high platform and announced, "The rules of the duel, Mr. Su has already said just now, let's start the first duel, by Huaxi 'Lian Fang Wei' against North China's 'Gongsun Yu'." ”

As soon as these words came out, more than 20 "inheritors" in the audience immediately shouted loudly.

"Lian Fang Wei, kill that little white face!"

"Gongsun Yu, don't embarrass our North China martial arts world!"

Chen Yuan's face was calm and he continued to look at the stage.

I saw two people coming up from the east and west ends of the gladiatorial arena.

A person in the east is like the bottom of a pot, his beard is slightly yellow, and a pair of tigers are glaring at the boss, carrying a mountain opening knife, red

Wearing an upper body, a fierce look.

A man on the west side was thin and pale, wearing a white single coat, holding a wicker-like thin sword in his hand, and his temperament was slightly feminine.

The two came to the stage and stood still on the left and right.

After confirming the identities of both parties, the core member turned around and stepped down.

Lian Fang Wei carried the mountain knife on his shoulder, and said with a cruel smile: "Brother Gongsun, I have offended, if you want to survive as a brother, you have to change your head for a life." ”

Gongsun Yu sneered.

Lifting the thin sword, he wiped it on his sleeve, and said slowly, "Everyone here wants to live, isn't it just one of you surnamed Lian? If you want me to put my head on your neck, first ask me if I agree to the thin sword in my hand!"

As he spoke, without waiting for Lian Fang Wei to answer, the long sword reversed, and the poisonous snake stabbed towards the other party's neck like a letter.

Lian Fangwei saw his sudden sneak attack, and his face changed suddenly.

picked up the mountain opening knife and slashed horizontally, swinging the opponent's long sword away, and then bullied up, slashing out more than ten knives one after another.

Gongsun Yu's sneak attack failed, and he immediately turned to attack and defend.

Flying around on the high platform, dodging Lian Fang Wei's attack.

When everyone in the audience saw it, they immediately scolded loudly:

"Run your mother, you have the ability to do it with a real knife and a real gun. ”

"If you don't bring a bad seed, you can't beat it and admit defeat and die. ”

"Brother Lian, cut to death and chop this little white face into meat sauce. ”

Seeing Gongsun Yu blindly running away, Lian Fangwei's confidence suddenly increased, and his playing style became more aggressive, and in a moment, he forced the other party to retreat and be embarrassed.

Chen Yuan watched the duel between the two from the audience, and remained silent.

As soon as Lian Fangwei and Gongsun Yugang fought, he saw the depth of their strength.

Lian Fang Wei seems to be strong, but in fact, he is strong on the outside and dry in the middle, and when it comes to cultivation, he is far inferior to Gongsun Yu opposite.

The latter has been hiding his strength and pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

The reason why he has been on the defensive is that on the one hand, he wants to confuse Lian Fang Wei and find an opportunity to secretly kill him, and on the other hand, he also wants to create the illusion of "fighting hard" for everyone, so that everyone can underestimate their cultivation and prepare for the next two rounds of selection.

Killing two birds with one stone, thinking is not deep.

At present, Lian Fang Wei has already attacked dozens of moves, and his physical strength is gradually exhausted, and it is estimated that Gongsun Yu will soon show his fangs and perform killing moves on the other party.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan couldn't help but sigh, "Things gather by like, people are divided by groups, and none of the 'inheritors' recruited by the 'Shadow' organization are good at stubble." ”

But in a moment, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.

Chen Yuan looked up and found that the situation on the stage had indeed changed.

The big knife in Lian Fang Wei's hand weighed more than 100 catties, and under the continuous attack, his strength was about to be exhausted, his body was crooked, and his moves began to be out of shape.

Although Gongsun Yu still looked "embarrassed", he had begun to try to fight back, and several times the thin sword almost hit the other party, causing the audience to exclaim.

The two dismantled more than one hundred and fifty moves, and Gongsun Yu finally grasped the flaw and stabbed each other in the neck with a sword.

Lian Fang Wei's long knife fell to the ground, his eyes were round, one hand covered his throat that was spurting blood, and the other hand was trembling and pointing at Gongsun Yu.

But after a while, he fell to the ground and died of exhaustion.

Everyone in the audience couldn't help but sigh when they saw Lian Fangwei die.

But he did not show the slightest admiration for the winning Gongsun Yu, and they were all disdainful, obviously not very optimistic about his strength.

Gongsun Yu ignored everyone's reactions, wiped the blood on the thin sword with his sleeve, and turned to step down.

Chen Yuan kept watching him walk to the stage before retracting his gaze.

As soon as he came back to his senses, an eerie voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "One is arrogant, the other is smart, it's really boring to compete with this gang of waste." ”
