Chapter 8: A High-profile Underground Fighting Match
The trading event ended on time in the early hours of the morning Earth time, and watching the sky-full spaceship leave the Firebird Star, Xiao Bai felt a sense of loss in his heart for no reason. Will you ever see those three again in this life? Especially, the girl named Lin Weier.
For Wang Yusi of Nanfeng School, although Xiao Bai has the fantasy of a young man, he always looks up to others and suppresses his emotions deeply in his heart. But one day, I suddenly became no different from them, and this suppressed emotion, as if I had found a breakthrough, erupted from the sensitive heart of the teenager.
The chance encounter with Bao Lesheng, although it is nothing to others, but for Xiao Bai, a frog who has been trapped on the Firebird Star for 16 years, like a frog sitting in a well and watching the sky, it has to be said to be an adventure worth remembering in his life. It's just that Bao Lesheng's enthusiasm scared Xiao Bai enough, if he could, it was best not to have anything to do with him in this life, except for Lin Weier, of course.
When Xiao ran home with a white nose and a swollen face, Xiao Lixuan was not too surprised by this. Xiao Bai has often gone home like this since he was a child, although this did not happen for a long time in the middle, but now that he has recovered, since he has recovered, he will inevitably go to trouble those people who used to be. Xiao Lixuan doesn't want to care, and he doesn't bother to care, in this harsh environment, everything relies on his fists to speak, he can fight if he can beat it, and if he can't beat it, he thinks he is unlucky, no one is to blame.
Xiao Lixuan obviously misunderstood Xiao Bai's behavior, and when Xiao Bai brought the e-check to him, Xiao Lixuan once thought that his son had robbed a certain place.
"Where did you get all this money?" Xiao Lixuan stared at Xiao Baidao with a shocked expression.
"Dad, I know that you have been worrying about money in order to go to college, so today I went to a trade fair and sold the spar that my mother left for me." As Xiao Bai spoke, his eyes had already glanced in the direction of the door. Sure enough, Xiao Lixuan's eyes suddenly widened, he stood up from the chair with a "snort", raised his slap and slammed it at Xiao Bai's head and scolded angrily: "Stinky boy! How dare you do that! ”
Because he had already made preparations, the source power was instantly poured into Xiao Bai's two feet, at this time he was no longer the cultivation "waste wood" of a few days ago, at the moment when Xiao Lixuan's palm was raised, Xiao Bai jumped out of the door in an instant like a rabbit, only to hear his voice come from afar: "Dad, I am also thinking about my family, don't blame me!" ”
Xiao Lixuan's palm suddenly slapped into the air, leaving him standing in place with a blank expression, shocked by Xiao Bai's big change.
……
Walking in the barren wilderness of Firebird Star, the heat and silence were in stark contrast to the bustle of the trade fair a few hours earlier. Under a huge stone mountain two kilometers away from the residential area, a huge circular door was dug out, and two big men in black uniforms stood on both sides of the door, and when Xiao Bai approached, one of the big men stopped him expressionlessly, raised the information reader in his hand and said, "Identity." ”
Xiao Bai turned his back and let him sweep the back of his neck with an instrument, and the identity plate buried in his skin:
Xiao Bai: Male
Age: 16
Identity: Firebird inhabitant.
After seeing the data in the instrument and the 40-digit identity code, he patted the fingerprint lock on the side of the door and let Xiao Bai enter.
This is the underground fighting arena of Firebird Star, in this martial era, almost every inhabited planet, there will be such a fighting place, boxing here, not only can bet to win a lot of money, but also because of the outstanding results, and the military will pay special attention.
Xiao Bai came here just to hone his fighting skills, after all, the battle with Bao Lesheng a few hours ago was not a real competition. Because of the huge gap there, Bao Lesheng left his hands everywhere, except for beating Xiao Bai's face to swelling like a steamed bun, except for letting Xiao Bai be familiar with his own situation, except for the feeling of competing with the strong, the rest did not seem to have much worth writing about.
Xiao Bai's only purpose was to know what he was like compared to people of similar rank.
Passing through the milky white passage leading to the bottom of the mountain, the deafening music of the underground arena and the frantic shouts of the crowd gradually became more and more harsh.
Walking to the old man at the betting office, after explaining that he was participating in the competition, the old man looked at Xiao Bai with a suspicious gaze before saying: "You are the first time to participate in the fight, if you win, the fighting arena will take 50% of the audience's betting funds." If that's no problem, we'll screen participants based on your cultivation level. ”
The old man looked at Xiao Bai again, shook his head and said disdainfully: "In the late stage of quenching, the lowest of us here is also a contestant in the middle stage of body forging, do you still want to participate?" ”
Xiao Bai nodded. After the old man scanned Xiao Bai's identity information into the computer with an instrument, he handed Xiao Bai a ring and said, "Since you are here for the first time, then I will tell you the rules of martial arts." Since cultivators fight with each other and how easy it is to cause damage, the people you pair with will be fighting against each other's complete avatars, and all your actions and behaviors will be reflected in your avatars. As long as you finish hitting the life bar that reflects the opponent's damage tolerance, you will win. Do you understand? ”
Xiao Bai still heard of the rules of the underground fighting arena. He nodded his head in understanding, and was immediately led to a corner of the ring, waiting for the system's automatic pairing.
Xiao Bai was assigned to a low-level battle ring, and in these rings, there were not many spectators. Seeing a young man with only a quenching level standing in the corner of the ring, the audience suddenly remembered a burst of boos, and someone said loudly under the venue: "Why did even the quenching person come up, you see his nose and face are swollen, I'm afraid he has been beaten many times!" Such a person can knock him over with one punch when he goes up. There is no suspense in this game, no matter who is playing against him, I bet 20 federal coupons on this kid to lose. ”
There was a chorus of echo from the scattered audience. There was little suspense in the matchup, and despite the ridiculously low odds on the bet, the seemingly unlost deal quickly collected a 50 Fed Bond bet.
Soon, on the other side of the ring, the image of a burly man was projected by the virtual imager at the top of the ring. When the big man saw Xiao Bai standing in the corner of the ring, he was stunned for a moment, and then showed a displeased expression on his face. Anyone who is assigned to such a weak opponent will have a feeling of being despised .
When the big man appeared, a burst of cheers suddenly sounded under the ring, and some viewers shouted: "Iron man! Hurry up and clean up this kid, give you 5 seconds, you clean him up within 5 seconds, and I bet on you to win the next game! ”
Perhaps it was the emotions of the audience that ignited the enthusiasm of this man named Tie Han, who stretched out his palm, made a gesture of "three" and said, "Three seconds!" I can finish him in just three seconds. ”
After speaking, the iron man was full of source power, forming a simple protective barrier in front of him, and it was useless to use any combat skills, he rushed directly towards Xiao Bai, and a fist the size of a casserole hit him in the face.
The ridicule of the audience below made Xiao Bai's face slightly hot, but he kept watching the other party's every move. After all, the fighters who have been immersed in the fighting arena all year round are extremely rich in both fighting skills and experience, far from being comparable to ordinary cultivators.
Seeing the iron man rushing straight over like a tank, Xiao Bai raised his left hand, he used the skills he learned from Bao Lesheng, and formed a protective shield on his arm under the flow of source power, swung his fist at the iron man's attack, and hit the iron man in the face with a hammer blow in his right hand. Facing this opponent in the middle of the forging body, Xiao Bai didn't dare to have any reservations, and as soon as he came up, he gathered the source power of his whole body into the fist of his right hand, just like facing Bao Lesheng, the source force formed a sharp blade at the fist.
This kind of ability similar to the ability of a fighter to manipulate the source force in the later stage surprised even Bao Lesheng. Xiao Bai's source power converged into a point, and it broke straight into Tie Han's protective barrier, like a knife inserted into a piece of butter, and directly broke into Tie Han's front without any obstacles. Seeing that Xiao Bai's attack was as useless as his protection, Tie Han only felt a moment of shock, but the source force blade had already touched his face, and it was too late to dodge. Xiao Bai's fist slammed through Tie Han's head, instantly cutting off half of the avatar's head, representing the red life bar instantly zero. I saw that the virtual image flashed twice, and then disappeared, and only Xiao Bai was left in the huge ring.
Spike!
There was a dead silence in the audience under the ring, and after a while, there was a gasp of gasp, and the audience looked at each other, and someone asked in disbelief, "Is it over?" Could it be that the virtual imaging system is wrong? ”
Soon the voice of the system came from the ring: "No. 1056, Xiao Bai wins." ”
Xiao Bai stood in the ring blankly, looking at his fist with a face full of disbelief, and couldn't believe for a moment that he had defeated his opponent in the middle of the forging body so easily.
At this moment, in another ring, there was an angry roar from the iron man: "I don't accept it!" He's obviously a person in the middle of forging the body, but why does it feel like a quenching body?! It's cheating! I'm not convinced! Replay! ”
No one pays attention to the dissatisfaction of the iron man, after all, in the ring, it is all about fists to speak, and winning or losing is clear, and there is no room for denial.
Walking down from the ring, soon a man in black walked up to Xiao Bai with a stack of federal coupons.
"There are 50 federal tickets for this round of bets, and according to the rules, 50% is drawn in the arena and you get 25. Do you continue to fight? ”
This battle didn't mean anything to Xiao Bai, and he won the battle effortlessly, and the process was simply inexplicable. Xiao Bai took the money and stuffed it into his trouser pocket, nodded and said, "Of course you have to continue, let me participate in the next one." ”
