149. a shrunken turtle

Mu Cheng came to the corridor outside the south gate, walked a few steps out, and finally appeared in people's sight.

Seeing Mu Cheng appear with his head held high and calm, a tidal wave of cheers suddenly sounded in the gladiatorial arena. This Mu Cheng walked out of the south gate, acquiescing in his identity as a challenger. This means that the battle is about to begin.

"Mu Cheng, are you going to the south gate to fight?" Gu Xun asked in a loud voice.

Mu Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, the criminal minister Mu Cheng asked to go to war." ”

Gu Xun glanced at Mi Wuzong, and saw a smile on the corner of Mi Wuzong's mouth, which seemed to be very satisfied.

"Approved. Gu Xun said, and then he said loudly, "Warriors of the third layer, who of you want to challenge Mu Cheng?"

As soon as these words were asked, the gladiators on the third layer suddenly fell silent.

For Mu Cheng, the fourth-order god of war in the Yongquan Realm, they were afraid to avoid him before, and no one wanted to provoke him. What's more, yesterday I saw Mu Cheng swallow the Fire God Shu Dan, and at this moment he has become a master comparable to the fifth order of the Yongquan Realm, whoever provokes him can only be burned to death.

So all the gladiators swallowed their saliva, shrank into the dark corner, lowered their heads, and remained silent.

Gu Xun asked three more times, but no one answered.

Mu Cheng smiled and said loudly: "Lord Gu, since no one wants to fight, I want to designate an opponent." ”

Gu Xun said: "Who do you want to appoint?"

Mu Cheng pondered for a long time and said, "The specially invited gladiator who ascended to the third layer yesterday. ”

"Oh? It was him. Gu Xun said.

Gu Xun paused and continued, "According to the rules of our gladiatorial arena, if no one is willing to fight, then the challenger will designate the opponent. Those who are designated must not refuse and must fight. Specially invited gladiator Turtle, please come to the North Gate immediately and prepare for battle!"

After Gu Xun finished shouting, the scene was quiet, and everyone waited with bated breath for the specially invited gladiator to come to the north gate.

However, Xia Gui did not appear, in fact, he didn't even get up, and still sat in the corner like an old monk who had settled down.

Because Xia Gui was hidden in the corner, it was difficult for everyone to see him, so they could only stare wide-eyed and look into the dark gladiatorial room.

"Specially invited gladiator Turtle, please fight!" Gu Xun frowned and shouted loudly a few more times.

But the gladiatorial room on the third floor was still silent, and no one answered.

A look of surprise flashed across Gu Xun's face, "This person won't die, will he?"

There have been beatings in the gladiatorial chamber before, and there have been cases where gladiators have been killed. There have also been cases of gladiators who could not bear the pressure and committed suicide on the eve of the competition.

If you think about it carefully, this specially invited gladiator is in the realm of the pulse, and it is simply unprecedented to be able to ascend to the third layer, and his mental pressure must be abnormally great, and it is possible to commit suicide if he can't withstand the pressure.

If he dies like this, Young Master Mi Wuzong didn't get out of this evil breath, but it's really hard to explain.

Just then, a voice shouted, "Here he is!"

I saw that in the third layer of the gloomy gladiatorial fight, Wang Ersan was holding an oil lamp in his hand and carefully ran to the corner.

With the help of the dim light of the oil lamp, everyone finally recognized a young man sitting cross-legged against the wall in the corner. Because the corner was too dark, everyone didn't notice it before, and if it wasn't for Wang Ersan's special light, everyone would have ignored him.

"What is he doing?" Gu Xun frowned.

Wang Ersan didn't answer, Mu Cheng, who was standing on the long corridor, bowed down and replied: "Lord Huigu, my opponent has maintained this posture from noon yesterday to now, I think he should be trying to break through." ”

"Try to break through?"

As soon as these words came out, all the spectators in the gladiatorial arena showed a strange and funny look on their faces, and some even burst into laughter.

"Is it too late to cram?"

"Buddha's feet always have to be held. But even if he hugs it, he is not Mu Cheng's opponent. ”

"For the fourth order of the Yongquan Realm, there is no difference between the Great Peak of the Chengmai Realm or the first order of the Yongquan Realm. ”

"What a waste of time!"

Jiang Guangyuan, Chen Bin, Lu Jing and others also sat in the viewing seats, always paying attention to the news of Xia Gui. When they heard Mu Cheng's answer, they immediately had different reactions.

Chengmai Realm can never be the opponent of Yongquan Realm, especially this Mu Cheng is still a master in the late stage of Yongquan Realm, the difference between the two is indeed the difference between cloud and mud.

As a neutral, Lu Jing could feel Xia Gui's determination to resist, and he sighed, "There is no return in this battle, you can't just be captured, right?" ”

Jiang Guangyuan sighed, after talking to Xia Gui yesterday, he felt the determination of this young man to face the battle. Sure enough, as he expected, the young man really chose to break through.

It's just such a short period of time, no matter how much you break through, you can only be at the first order of the Yongquan Realm, and the gap is too big compared to the powerful Mu Cheng. No matter how Jiang Guangyuan wants to break his head, he can't think of a way to turn the danger into a disaster.

Lu Jing shook his head, "It's a pity that such a talented person dies here. Old Jiang, I don't think the young master will kill him, and it is estimated that he will be sent to the northern base for research. ”

Jiang Guangyuan's eyes shrank suddenly, although this idea is terrifying, it is indeed very likely to happen. If so, it bought some time......

Chen Bin smiled and said, "Don't be self-righteous, he has no plans to fight at all!" Then, Chen Bin deliberately raised his voice and said loudly, "Many of you here are cultivators, and you also know what it was like before the Chengmai Realm broke through to the Yongquan Realm. I've never seen anything like this, silent, and motionless. In my opinion, he's not really breaking through, he's pretending!"

As soon as these words came out, the commoners and nobles in the audience woke up like a dream and suddenly realized.

"It's a possibility!"

"Pretending, it's stalling for time!"

"I guess I'm afraid of death, so pretend to be breaking through. ”

Suddenly, a look of ridicule and ridicule climbed onto the faces of the onlookers.

The eyes that looked at Xia Gui suddenly lost their previous admiration and sympathy, and were replaced by contempt and contempt.

Don't look at this kid's previous megatronage arena, his excellent talent shocked countless audiences, and even won the hearts of many noblewomen, and when he really faced a strong enemy that he couldn't defeat, the reaction he showed finally revealed his true nature.

He hid in a dark corner like a turtle with a shrunken head, motionless, pretending not to hear any shouts, and evading the gladiatorial fight with a closed door!

The disdain on everyone's faces was even worse, and some even began to scold.

"This man's name is a turtle, right? Turtle with a shrunken head, and sure enough, the person is as his name suggests. ”

"This is really fucking good at pretending! I used to pretend to be forced, but now I am pretending to be dead!"

"I can't let him pretend like this, it's better to force him to be dragged out and killed!"

Hearing everyone's merciless criticism and contempt for Xia Gui, Mi Wuzong simply enjoyed the highest pleasure in life! He couldn't help but sit up straight, listening attentively to everyone's contempt for Xia Gui, for fear of missing a word. The smile on his face couldn't be concealed at all, and he had already laughed like a flower.

"Mu Cheng did this beautifully, and there will be a heavy reward after he comes out!" thought to himself.

He originally wanted to humiliate Xia Gui during the battle, but he didn't expect that before the war started, Xia Gui's image had plummeted and fallen to the bottom.

Mi Wuzong smugly cast a glance at Mi Xuefu, he wanted to know what kind of expression Mi Xuefu would look like after hearing these comments. However, to his disappointment, Mi Xuefu did not have any expression, just sat coldly on the stone platform, looking at the kerosene lamp flickering in the dark corner with concern.

Qi Wuzong cleared his throat, "Someone said just now that it was a waste of time, right? Everyone's time is precious, how can this kid be wasted? Gu Xun, just pull that kid out according to what everyone said. ”

Gu Xun nodded and said, "Yes!"

A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Qi Wu's mouth, it would be even funnier if someone was sent to lift this kid out of the gladiatorial room.

This kid pretended to be dead and couldn't pretend to be dead, and he was carried out and forced to fight, which was really humiliating and thrown to his grandmother's house.

I don't know if the look on Mi Xuefu's face at that time could still be as calm as now?

Gu Xun turned his head and said to the four soldiers: "You go in and call him, and if he pretends not to wake up, carry him directly to the center of the gladiatorial arena." ”

"Yes. "The four soldiers commanded.

Soon, four soldiers with fast hands and feet walked into the north gate of the third floor and strode to Xia Gui's side.

At this time, Xia Gui was still motionless in the dark corner, his face was very calm, if it wasn't for Chen Bin's debunking, it would be no different from sleeping.

Everyone's eyes were on the four soldiers into the dark corner, and everyone held their breath to see what kind of embarrassed look this shrunken turtle would be woken up with a look of embarrassment.

"Get up, you're out into battle!" a soldier shouted behind Xia Gui.

Xia Gui didn't speak.

"Get up, you're out into battle!" the soldier shouted again.

Xia Gui still didn't react.

"Damn, it's really vivid!" The soldier was also angry and funny, and said, "Then the brothers are welcome, just carry them out!"

"Okay!" the remaining three soldiers hurriedly rolled up their sleeves.

Suddenly, eight thick big hands took Xia Gui's shoulders and thighs at the same time.

Jiang Guangyuan's face was red and white for a while, very ugly.

At this point, Xia Guiwu stood still, and even Jiang Guangyuan himself began to wonder, is this kid really pretending to delay time?

He knew that Xia Gui would go and never return, but he never expected that he would go and not return in such a humiliating way, which was really embarrassing.

The subordinates made a fool of themselves, and as a leader, he was also very upset.

Just when those eight hands were about to touch Xia Gui's clothes, suddenly a white bright light lit up from Xia Gui's body, like a dazzling sunlight that was lit. Immediately after, an indescribably powerful air pressure surged out from Xia Gui's body, like a terrible storm swept across the deep sea.

Before the four soldiers could react to what was happening, the force was already pushing them back.

Listening to the four muffled sounds of "bang", "bang", "bang" and "bang", the four soldiers crashed into the stone walls on all sides of the gladiatorial room, and the momentum was shocking, and even the newly reinforced gladiatorial arena also sent out a slight vibration.
