Chapter 161: This Man Is Amazing

The people in the lounge could only hear the cheers and screams outside, but they had no idea what was going on there.

But fortunately, their doubts did not last long, because Zhang Heng's figure had reappeared at the door of the lounge.

"You...... Is this coming back to get the helmet again? The gladiator who kindly reminded Zhang Heng to take the helmet asked stupidly.

"No, the battle is over." Zhang Heng said as he sat back in his seat.

"It's over?"

The gladiators were in an uproar when they heard this, they had imagined all kinds of possibilities, but they had never imagined that the battle would end so quickly.

The fact that it took a quarter of an hour to end the battle in Habitus before was already considered a god speed, but compared to Zhang Heng's battle, it was almost a century long, and this time was estimated to be enough for the vast majority of gladiators to walk to the arena and come back.

This meant that his battle with Cincinnatus ended in an instant.

The gladiators of Cincinnatus were no strangers, the latter came from the Arena of Unap, and his own strength may not be as good as that of quasi-ace gladiators such as Habitus, but he was also the first-class gladiator in Rome.

However, if such a good player doesn't even survive a move, how strong will his opponent be?

The hearts of all the gladiators, including Satonilos, sank.

…………

On the other side, the cheers and screams in the stands did not decay with Zhang Heng's departure, on the contrary, the fenbei actually got higher and higher, making it impossible for the gladiatorial performance to even go on normally.

In terms of process, the battle that just ended was not exciting, there was no collision between muscles, no sensory stimulation brought by blood, and no sense of drama that turned around, but it was this simple sword, combined with Zhang Heng's fighting style of turning his head after finishing the fight and not procrastinating at all, that completely conquered the 90,000 spectators present.

You must know that the gladiators who stepped into the Flavi Arena today are all masters of various gladiator schools or places, they have their own characteristics or stunts, and they join forces to present a visual feast for the audience, but because of this, the audience's eyes have long been raised, and it is difficult to stimulate their nerves in ordinary battles.

Even the cheers of Habitus and Satonilos received less than half the cheers of the ordinary duel.

However, the current Flavi Amphitheater has been completely drowned out by the constant cheers.

Today, for the first time in ancient Rome and its people, they saw the minimalist aesthetics in the arena, and the audience couldn't wait to listen to the referee's introduction, and asked the people around them about the origin of this mysterious oriental, and those who were lucky enough to see Zhang Heng's previous battles began to describe Zhang Heng's heroic posture in those battles to their companions, as well as his confusing background.

Commodus also seemed to be infected by this fanatical atmosphere, although he was still trying to maintain the majesty of the emperor, but the admiration in his eyes could not be concealed completely, especially when Zhang Heng cut off the opponent's trident, Commodus was the first to stand up and applaud.

On the other hand, Lucilla was much calmer, as if this result was not what she expected, even if everyone around her stood up with Commodus, she still sat in her seat with her chin propped up, muttering, "Really, how can I make money like this." ”

"This man is very powerful." Her husband Pompeianus was also applauding at this time, with a look of surprise on his face, "If I had known, I would have taken out all the money I had saved and bet it on him, so that I wouldn't have to make any more money for the next three years." ”

"No, you won't, hasn't he won the championship yet, as long as he hasn't won the championship yet, there is a risk, and you won't bet all your chips on a risky thing." Lucyla said lazily.

"Am I such a person?" Pompeianus was surprised, but after he thought about it, he had to nod and say, "It seems that this is really the case, and sure enough, my wife knows me best, so what about you?" If so, what would you choose? ”

"I'm different from you, I trust my instincts, and my instincts tell me that he will be the ultimate champion of this gladiatorial show, so I will smash it no matter how many chips I have, women are inherently emotional creatures."

Pompeianus sighed, "But you've never lost, have you?" ”

"yes, probably because I've been lucky." Lucyla snorted.

Seeing that the audience was slow to calm down, the subsequent gladiatorial performance could not be carried out, and there was a possibility of riot in the stands, Commodus had to wave his hand to signal everyone to calm down.

However, this is only temporary, and the young emperor knows that if he can't come up with a solution that satisfies everyone, it is likely to bring even more commotion in the future

Commodus consulted with a few of his advisors, and one of them proposed to distribute gifts or coins again, but Commodus felt that this method was a bit incompetent, and it sounded like he would only bribe his own people with money, and Commodus wanted to show his charm and skill even more.

Clint bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the bell must be tied to the bell, if you can persuade Zhang Heng to appear again, maybe you can meet the needs of the people." ”

"Again?" Commodus raised an eyebrow, "But according to the rules, the winner of a gladiatorial fight will not continue to play until the second round, is this too unfair to him?" ”

"This rule is to give the gladiator time to rest and recover, but he didn't use much force in the previous fight anyway, even if he plays continuously, there will be no problem." Clint Road.

"What is the word, but let's send someone to ask his opinion, if he doesn't want to, we can't force him, because it will destroy fairness, and I want people to know that I will uphold fairness and justice under my rule."

"Of course, my esteemed majesty." Hearing this, Clinder hurriedly retreated to the lounge to find Zhang Heng.

Commodus first let the band play to calm the emotions in the audience, but fortunately, it didn't take long for Zhang Heng to reappear in the middle of the arena from the lifting platform, and at this time Klinder had not even been able to run to the stands.

Seeing Zhang Heng appear, the cheers on the audience suddenly rang out again, and then Zhang Heng bowed in the direction of Commodus, so the next cheers were given to the emperor.

Commodus felt more comfortable when he heard the cheers, and he was more and more comfortable to look at Zhang Heng, he had already begun to feel that this Oriental was really good, had strength, and would solve problems for him, if this was his person.
