Shangguan Tianlong's body was round and chubby, and he sped up his steps to walk up the steps, like a fat duck walking, which looked a little funny. Lu Tianyu followed quickly, but as soon as he entered the hall, he was immediately shocked by the vision.

The hall was crowded with people. In the ring, a tall boy and a petite red-haired girl are engaged in a fierce fight.

The stage is set up with a powerful barrier, and powerful attacks do not spread beyond the stage.

Lu Tianyu was completely dumbfounded, it turned out that this was a battle between magicians! He had already felt very powerful when he saw the battle of the flower chain before, and the magic duel in front of him was even more eye-opening, and this scene was very spectacular.

Boys are water, and girls are fire. The two of them, who are incompatible, actually used magic to create an ice dragon and a fire dragon on this stage. Both of them skillfully manipulated magic, ice dragons and fire dragons, colliding and biting each other.

"It's her!" Shangguan Tianlong stood on tiptoe, stretched his neck to look at the ring, and was very surprised after seeing the duel on the stage clearly.

"Someone you know?"

"That girl is the one who knocked down the wolf rat last night. ”

"What?" Lu Tianyu was startled, "You didn't recognize the wrong person, did you?!"

"Can't be wrong. I also know the man, he is the class leader of the second class of the senior class, and he has always been ranked seventh on the list. ”

Lu Tianyu secretly thought: The flower chain ranks eighth, which is already ridiculously strong. This person is still in front of the flower chain, so to speak, the strength of the red-haired and double-ponytailed Lori is still above the flower chain!

"Are they really still students?" he asked incredulously, "is that boy really number seven?"

"There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, he duel in this ring once last semester. He was originally eighth, and after beating the seventh, he moved up one place. I remember very well that he crippled the seventh-ranked girl, and the family finally had to leave the academy with a grudge. Shangguan Tianlong clenched his fists when he said this.

"Crippled people?" Lu Tianyu said in surprise. He could clearly feel the anger in Shangguan Tianlong's heart.

"yes. Almost died. ”

"Can a duel here kill a person?"

"The duel is voluntary on both sides, as long as you stand in this ring, there is no resentment in life and death. Even if you survive, you will never be able to seek revenge later, and in the process of the duel, no one will be allowed to interfere. ”

"Why do you want to do this, can't you just divide the winner and lose?"

"My lord, you are too naïve. In a battle between magicians, no one can predict the death if they are not careful. Moreover, it is a matter of honor and rules. ”

"Honor and rules?"

"Even if a magician dies in battle, he must not surrender to his opponent, this is the rule set by the demon gods of the previous realm. This ring was also built according to the orders of the Demon God. ”

As soon as he heard this name, Lu Tianyu's heart couldn't help but tighten for a while, and he became a little excited. This is his worst enemy.

"Why do you have such cruel rules?"

"It is said that only a duel that risks one's life can bring out the greatest potential of a magician, and it is possible to become a first-class magician. ”

At this point, there was a change in the fight in the ring, and at first it seemed evenly divided, and on both sides of the two sides, the boy was noticeably a little sluggish as time went on.

"That Lori doesn't seem to be using her strength at all. Although Lu Tianyu has no combat experience, his insight is quite amazing. His words reminded Shangguan Tianlong.

"Oh, my lord!" Shangguan Tianlong said excitedly, "I know who she is!"

"What is her origin?" Lu Tianyu was full of curiosity, after all, the flower chain specially explained how far away it was best to see her and how far to hide.

"She should be the rumored 'strongest Lori'!"

"The strongest Lori?"

"I heard that she just transferred from the Royal Imperial Academy of Magic a few months ago, and no one has ever defeated her so far. We are the only girl in our college who is not on the rankings, but she is ridiculously strong. She is the most famous monster in the senior class. ”

"No wonder the second-class leader is also at a disadvantage," Lu Tianyu asked again, "Are all the people in the first class particularly powerful?"

"That's for sure. The people in that class were all in the top 100 of the leaderboard. Shangguan Tianlong glanced left and right, as if he was afraid that others would hear it, and continued, "You may not know that the senior class is also called the Monster Legion. Before the flower chain came to our class, it was a member of that class. ”

"Monster Legion? they're so powerful, so what are the people in the other classes fighting for to qualify? Isn't it completely hopeless?"

"Who knows. Even if you don't win the championship, as long as you qualify for the competition, you don't have to worry about the future in the future, and many people go to the competition because of this. ”

"Oh, I see. ”

"Moreover, if you are lucky enough to win the championship of the competition, you still have a chance to get the Divine Beast, of course everyone will fight desperately. ”

"Divine beasts?"

"Hmm. The strongest Divine Beast-level envoy demon. ”

"That must be a very rare demonic beast, right?" Lu Tianyu had read many envoy demon illustrated books in magic textbooks, but he had never seen an introduction to the divine beast-level envoy demon.

"Hmm. ”

Lu Tianyu suddenly remembered that the flower chain had said that she was determined to win the prize of this competition.

It turns out that the target of the flower chain is a beast-level envoy demon!

The two dueling in the ring entered a stalemate. The two were seven or eight meters away from each other, and they were in a confrontational situation. But see, the second squad leader shrugged his shoulders and gasped for air, on the other hand, that Lori was not blushing, out of breath, and at ease, not like a person who had just experienced a fierce battle.

"Do you want to keep fighting?" she said, already in her hands.

"Unless I fall, I will fight until the last moment. "The second squad leader looked very weak because of the overuse of magic power, and sweat was raining down.

She made a regretful gesture, like an adult, and let out a deep sigh: "Obediently join my team five, wouldn't it be good to go to the national competition with me, you still have to duel with me." If you don't want to, then I won't show mercy anymore. ”

"How long do you want to insult me!"

"Hmph! You have to save face one by one, and if you lose your life, don't regret it until you go to hell. ”

The people in the hall who watched the duel all held their breath and stared at the two of them intently. Lu Tianyu could feel a very strong aura of intertwining various feelings, including gloating, uneasy, fearful, nervous, and worried......

The squad leader let out a shout and manipulated the ice dragon to attack her again.

She snorted, and with her left hand she controlled the fire dragon to attack. The next scene stunned everyone. At the same time, she also created a fire dragon in her right hand, which fell from the sky and directly attacked the squad leader himself.

"Ahh

With a long miserable cry, the second squad leader was instantly devoured by the fire dragon. The whole person was on fire, and after walking a few steps, he rolled on the spot and howled. This inhumane scene made the entire hall so quiet that only his screams of pain were left.

When Lu Tianyu saw this scene, he was stunned at first, and then suddenly came back to his senses and asked Shangguan Tianlong: "Isn't that a winner? Why didn't anyone go out to save him?"

"It's up to the referee to decide! The referee doesn't announce the end, and the barrier won't disappear. It's simply impossible to save people. The enchantment of this ring cannot be broken by ordinary attacks, whether it is from the inside or from the outside, it can be dissolved. This special barrier is designed to prevent the duel from being interfered with, and only the referee can dismantle it. If someone ignores the rules and forcibly stops the game, they will be considered a dangerous person. ”

"This is too inhumane!"

"What is humanity?"

Lu Tianyu was asked, and he didn't know what to say. Is it "humanity" among the six paths of Buddhism? Is the basic pursuit of human value as the bottom line of a 'human being' as mentioned by Confucianism? Or is it the praise of human value, the defense of human dignity, and the improvement of human status as mentioned in the West...... Perhaps, saying these will not help either.

He glanced at the people around him, and most of them had terrible expressions of indifference on their faces. This couldn't help but remind him of the world he lived in, people's faces, left and right cheeks seemed to have a couplet, which read: Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, and does not care about the frost on the tiles of others.

Lu Tianyu remembered the way he chased the thief that day. ran a few streets, half of the county, and no one stood up to help. When he thought of this, his heart ached.

Seeing that the squad leader was already burned to death, and after his clothes burned to the ground, the fire became smaller. A humanoid beauty fairy suddenly appeared above the ring, except for a pair of transparent wings, it was no different from ordinary people.

She loudly announced: "The winner of this duel is - the strongest Lori!"

The hall suddenly burst into thunderous applause, and the crowd was excited, and some people cheered loudly and whistled.

The goblin announced the outcome of the duel, and with a wave of his hand, the enchantment disappeared immediately.

Lu Tianyu saw that Bai Feiyu seemed to fall from the sky and fell to the side of the squad leader, and immediately gave him emergency treatment.

He found it hard to accept such a duel to the death. Why can these people sit on the sidelines and watch a person being burned alive? Why can such a thing exist when the victory or defeat has been decided, but they cannot immediately save people? It's really strange that the rules set by the demon god are actually regarded as golden rules.

Why is the teacher here and waiting for the game to be announced? His mind was full of questions, and he felt that all this was too abnormal. Now he finally understands why his aunt said such things that day, it turns out that she didn't want to duel with others here, because of this!

After breakfast, on the way to the classroom, the more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became, and said angrily: "That duel, the winner was decided early tomorrow, why didn't you treat it earlier?"

Shangguan Tianlong looked back at the few classmates walking behind him and said, "My lord, don't shout so loudly. The rules set by the demon god are the laws of the wizarding world. Just like the decree issued by the king, the people must obey it. I hate it, too, but I can't change it. ”

"With such a demon god, no one has ever thought of defeating him?"

"Shhhh

Sure that the people behind him would not hear it, Shangguan Tianlong continued: "Although many people are dissatisfied with the Demon God, they dare not speak out. There have been magicians who have risen up and resisted, and all of them have been executed. If you want to defeat the demon god, it is impossible. ”

"There is a sky outside the sky, there are people in the world, I don't believe that the demon god is invincible in the world. ”

"My lord, you're talking about people, and the demon god is a god-like existence. Legend has it that his magic power is unknown, and no one can match the four demon kings under his command alone. ”

Lu Tianyu gradually felt the dark side of this world. There are white clouds floating in the sky, the morning sun gently caress the earth, and there are birds chirping in the trees in the school garden, but all this, he has no intention of watching.
