Chapter 66: No One in Sight

Chapter 66: No One in Sight

When we returned to the cultivation hall, Zhou Xiaoying was still cultivating and was not waiting for me at the gate like last time.

I knew that martial artists couldn't just interrupt when they were cultivating, and although they were slightly disappointed, they didn't mean to blame Zhou Xiaoying.

Elder Hei looked disappointed, looked at me and said, "I knew that your sister was in retreat and cultivated, so we should come back at another time." ”

I smiled and said, "It's okay, my sister is eighteen years old and is still a third-level martial artist." If I don't work hard, I'll leave her far behind......"

Half a year ago, I would never have said this, but now I don't feel anything wrong with saying such a thing.

A trace of worry flashed in the eyes of Elder Black and Elder White, and they both shook their heads slightly when they glanced at each other.

It was Elder Hei who spoke, "Since we are back, there is no need to rush back. It's almost the New Year, and there will be a point ranking battle in the arena, so let's go over and take a look today, and relax by the way, what do you think?"

When I heard that there was a gambling fight, I immediately became interested and quickly said, "Okay, I just want to see the gambling fight." ”

I originally wanted to do one more thing, but as soon as I heard about the gambling fight, I put it aside for the time being.

What I want to do is to take the opportunity to come back this time to see my father Zhou Shuangyin, who had come back a few months ago, and I have never visited him.

I heard that Zhou Shuangyin was indeed injured, and the injury was still very serious, he first stayed in the hospital for a period of time, and then he has been recuperating at home, and he has not recovered so far.

I wasn't allowed to go home to see Zhou Shuangyin because I wanted to practice the Dragon Descending Technique, and I was still talking about it all the time.

Now is a good opportunity, I originally planned to go back and take a look, but Elder Hei's words aroused my interest, I want to go and see what kind of point ranking battle it is first, and then it is not too late to go back and see Zhou Shuangyin.

Elder Black and Elder White led me to the arena dedicated to gambling, and I saw at a glance that there were people fighting in the arena, and the surrounding area was full of onlookers.

I haven't seen such a lively scene for almost half a year, and now when I see it at first glance, I feel a little uncomfortable.

I quietly took a step back and stood between the Black Elder and the White Elder, as if I had become timid and did not dare to stand with strangers.

"Look closely, maybe you can go up and try your hand at it later. Elder Hei suddenly looked back at me and said solemnly: "You have been cultivating for half a year, if you have the opportunity, you will go up and try your skills, and it can be regarded as a test of the results of your cultivation in the past six months." ”

I said with some doubts: "Isn't my point only 6 points, and I have a chance to go up and play?"

Elder Hei smiled: "The rules of the point ranking battle are that as long as you have participated in a gambling battle and achieved a victory, you can participate. The prerequisite is that a martial artist with a large number of points cannot challenge a martial artist with a low score, and a martial artist who is not in the same realm cannot challenge each other. There are no other rules. ”

I suddenly said, "So I can participate, that's great, I just want to try my hand and win some money by the way......"

Elder Black said with a grin, "It's a challenge between ninth-level warriors now, and I think it's going to end in a while." You prepare, I'll sign you up, and when the next one comes next, you can go up and try your skills. ”

I didn't feel anything wrong, so I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Li Xin's Pavilion Master to get the protective suit and prepare for the battle now." ”

Elder Hei smiled and went to sign me up, and I went to find Li Xin with Elder Bai, Li Xin was not surprised at all when he saw me, it seemed that he had long known that I would come back here today.

I explained my intention, and Li Xin gave me a set of protective clothing very happily, which was exactly the same as the one I wore before to fight with Requiem, and it was also the kind that could defend against being hit by a fifth-level martial artist with all his might.

After thanking Li Xin, Elder Bai and I returned to the arena, the previous gambling battle was over, and the new gambling parties were already fighting.

I knew that it would not be long before it would be my turn to fight, and I was very excited and excited in my little heart.

I seemed to see my opponent who was defeated by me and left in frustration, and I seemed to see a lot of rewards being given to me by a notary, and I also saw a lot of people surrounding me and praising me......

I was like the one who had already won before I even played, and I almost laughed out loud with joy.

The Black Elder and the White Elder beside me frowned secretly, all of them looking very disappointed.

Unfortunately, I didn't notice this at all, and continued to indulge in my fantasies and entertain myself.

"Let's go up......" I don't know how long I stood stupidly, but Elder Black's voice came to my ears: "It's time for you to play." ”

I reacted and saw Zhu Tianjiao standing in the middle of the arena, looking at me, as if he had already called my name, but I didn't hear it.

I quickly regained my mind, strode over, and stood beside Zhu Tianjiao.

Zhu Tianjiao frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, some people in the audience around me knew me, so they yelled and shouted at me, some cheered for me, and some hid behind some people and scolded me.

I thought to myself, whoever doesn't cheer me on, or buys my opponent to win, just wait to lose.

My pride has completely occupied my entire brain at this time, making me look at everything, thinking that as long as I am in the same level 5 martial artist realm, no one will be my opponent.

My opponent has not yet been called, which makes me a little impatient, and I can't help but say to Zhu Tianjiao: "Who is my opponent?"

Zhu Tianjiao smiled slightly, didn't pay attention to me, but said loudly to those audiences: "Next, we invite Dongfang Hongfeng's opponent this time, Requiem, to enter the arena." ”

My heart trembled, isn't that my old rival, and my current junior brother?

How did we meet Requiem again? Didn't we already fight twice?

Isn't there anyone else who dares to fight me? Whose idea is this, it's just terrible.

I had a fight with Requiem seven months ago, and I also fought six months ago, and both times, Requiem was defeated by me.

Today I am here to participate in this points ranking battle, how can I meet Requiem again? My heart is full of doubts and puzzles.

Could it be that someone deliberately arranged it this way so that I could have a three-game winning streak?

You must know that the first two battles between me and Requiem, but he failed, with my current strength, it is not easy to solve him, there is no suspense at all?

But for the sake of him being my junior brother now, I reluctantly didn't hurt him too badly, lest my master's faces have nothing to do with it.

They are all disciples of the masters, so there is no need for everyone to make the relationship too stiff......
