Half a football field's size is located in the center of Gaunt House, right next to the Triple Heaven, where many barbarian gladiators are kept.

When Gao Ge and his entourage arrived at the martial arts arena, the stone steps on the sidelines were already full of people, and on the main seat of the east head, they were all sitting in the core group of this Gunt Mansion.

Sitting in the middle was not Blake, but an old man of seventy or eighty years old, with white hair and hair, but strong and sturdy, and his eyes were introverted, this person was Blake Gaunt's father, the head of the Gaunt family, Count Bede Gaunt, and the only master of the Douzun realm of the Gaunt family today.

Blake sat next to Earl Bede, but slightly further back than he was.

And behind the two of them, there sat a row of old men who were about the same age as Earl Bede, these were the elders and worshippers of the Gaunt Mansion, and they were the core of the strength of the Gunt Mansion.

"Blake. Count Bede called in a deep voice.

"Father. Blake hurriedly leaned forward.

"Do you know how important this year's Carnival is to our family?" said Earl Bede's voice.

"Yes. Blake said: "Since the second uncle returned to heaven, there is only one Douzun in our family, and next year will be a ten-year evaluation, and it is very unlikely that we will be promoted to another Douzun within a year." So everything depends on whether our family's leading competition team can perform brilliantly in the Jiahua Competition. ”

"Yes!" Count Bide sighed, "Your second uncle died fighting for the family, which is a huge loss, and the minimum standard requirement of the Qipin Hongwu family is to have two Douzun. And although your second brother is extremely talented, in recent years, he has been trapped in the high-level of the Great Dou Master, and he has been struggling to make progress. Ten years ago, we have been reduced from the sixth rank to the seventh grade, and this time we can't afford to lower it anymore, otherwise, how can I be worthy of the ancestors of the Gaunt family!"

"Father, don't worry too much, as long as our leader can win the crown in the Ka Wah Competition this time, the right minister will speak for our family. Blake said softly.

"Alas, how can I not be worried, if we are demoted to a low-level Hongwu family, many of our business privileges will be greatly weakened, and the losses will be huge! Speaking of which, if it weren't for the fact that you and the second son of the right minister have been friends since childhood, we wouldn't have been able to keep our current level as early as the last three-year small review. Count Bede looked worried.

"It's all the son's incompetence. Blake looked down.

"I don't blame you, it's all the old thief Melson! Believing that we are the faction of the right minister, he suppressed us in many ways and supported the absolute crown to oppose our leader. They will never be involved in the death of your second uncle!" Count Bede's gnashing of teeth could be heard clearly.

"Father, my father is angry, this time my son can get this Tiger Clan from Tianmen Pass, maybe it is the opportunity for my family to operate in the underworld. Blake was relieved.

"Okay, let's see what he's capable of. "Count Bede is coloring.

At this time, the second elder happened to lead the nine barbarians from the Triple Gate to the martial arts arena, he motioned for the other eight people to sit down on the steps on the sidelines, and then pointed at them and said to Gao Ge: "Tiger Clan, Lord Count wants to see what you are capable of today. If you fight a game, defeat is death, and if you win, you will get the best treatment like them. ”

"Who are you fighting with?" asked Gao Ge.

"Fight me. A violent voice came from behind Gao Ge, full of monstrous hatred.

Gao Ge turned around to see that two armed men were escorting an extremely tall and majestic barbarian into the room, and it was actually Xiong Tao, the ice bear man who had just been replaced by him.

Gao Ge's eyes instantly bloomed with a thousand fighting intent.

On the main stage, Count Bede looked at Gao Ge's reaction with a slight appreciation, and said slowly: "If this Tiger Clan can really defeat this Ice Bear Man, it is indeed better to use him than to use the Ice Bear Man." In our participating team, there is already the rhinoceros man as the cornerstone of the main defense, although this ice bear man is also very strong in attack, but it is still stronger in defense than in attack, and there is some duplication with rhino man. The Tiger Clan, on the other hand, are known for their fierce attacks, so our team is more balanced in attack and defense. ”

The father said it very well, and so did the son. Blake said with a smile.

"Then let them start, I'm looking forward to it. It's been a long time since I've seen the Tiger Clan fight. Count Bede lay deep into the Grand Master's chair.

"Yes!" Blake respectfully agreed, then stood up and said to Xiong Tao and Gao Ge in the arena, "Listen, you two choose your armor and weapons for yourselves, and in a quarter of an hour you will be able to fight here, and the winner will be able to participate in this year's Jiahua Competition." ”

After a pause, Blake continued: "If you are not defeated, you can abandon your weapon and signal that you can save your life." ”

Xiong Tao and Gao Ge both snorted coldly, and neither of them had any intention of showing weakness and admitting defeat.

A quarter of an hour later, fully armed and Gao Ge and Xiong Tao were already standing on the field.

Xiong Tao was dressed in thick silver heavy armor, which wrapped his whole body tightly, revealing only two eyes that had turned blood-red.

This heavy armor was designed for barbarian gladiators, and there was a certain degree of overlap between the armor blocks, leaving room for totem madness.

Gao Ge, on the other hand, only picked a pair of light armor, except for the breastplate, which was all steel, and the other parts were covered with leather armor.

The weapon selected by Xiong Tao also has the characteristics of the bear people, it is a huge iron thistle hammer, which is a giant hammer made of fine iron, the surface is covered with raised bumps, weighing about 300 catties.

Gao Ge didn't choose his usual long knife this time, but chose a small round steel shield and a broad-bladed double-edged short sword.

Count Bede nodded slowly: "The equipment chosen by these two barbarians is very suitable for their respective characteristics. The bear clan has a large manpower, but its body is huge, and its movements are clumsy, so it is difficult to prevent all the opponent's attacks, so it is a heavy armor, so that you can focus on the attack, and will not be forced by the opponent to be in a hurry, and give the defense to a heavy armor. And with his own divine power, it is not difficult to bear such a heavy armor. ”

Blake continued: "This tiger man is very athletic, so he only wears light armor and holds a small round shield to not lose his advantage of speed. With his speed and agility, he only needs a round shield to block every attack of the bear, and he can defend without worry. ”

"It's up to them to play. Count Bede stroked his long beard, his eyes looking a little expectant.

In the field, Gao Ge and Xiong Tao were already standing opposite each other, five zhang apart.

"Boy, I said that one day I would tear you apart, but I didn't expect to have a chance so soon, hahahaha!" Xiong Tao's happy and violent voice came out of the heavy helmet, looking a little dull.

"Tear me apart, I'm afraid I cut off your bear paws first!" Gao Ge lunged lightly, his left hand set up a shield to protect his chest and abdomen, and his right hand pulled out the short sword inserted in the ground, and gently slashed a sword flower.

"Rampant!" Xiong Tao let out a roar, like a steel monster, and pounced on Gao Ge, making a violent friction sound between the decks.

Although he was wearing heavy armor, Xiong Tao's speed did not seem to be affected in any way, for a barbarian like him who was born with divine power, this heavy armor was as light as nothing.

The bear people are mainly divided into three major tribes: the black bear people, the grizzly bear people and the rarest ice bear people, among which the ice bear people only live in the bitter cold land of the far north, Xiong Tao was obtained by Blake at a high price, but it was not obtained from the extreme north, but the third generation of familiar barbarians who were transferred to the Tuyue Kingdom.

Seeing Xiong Tao rushing forward, Gao Ge kicked his feet, did not retreat, but advanced, and hedged head-on.

"Oh!" exclaimed in all directions, is this Tiger Clan crazy, it is actually a hard-hitting frame.

Seeing that Gao Ge did not dodge at all, the anger in Xiong Tao's eyes was even stronger, and he slammed his hammer like the wind, "whew" and smashed into Gao Ge who came at high speed.

There was a loud bang, and the giant hammer smashed on Gao Ge's round shield.

Gao Ge's whole person flew high with this loud sound, like a baseball that was knocked away.

"Wow!" The whole Gunt Mansion who was watching around exclaimed in unison, but they didn't expect that this Tiger Clan was so poor and so stupid that they were actually shot away in a single shot.

This time, if you don't die, you have to be seriously injured, Xiong Tao pulled the corner of his mouth viciously, and he had used all his strength for this blow.

"Teng", after spinning and flying out for more than ten zhang, Gao Ge actually adjusted his posture in the air, landed on his feet, but he couldn't stand steadily, and he retreated more than ten steps in a row before he could stand still.

With this thunderous blow just now, Gao Ge was unharmed, but the small round shield in his hand was horribly deflated by a large piece.

Gao Ge just stabilized his figure, but his eyes were sharp, his legs kicked, and he threw himself at Xiong Tao again.

There was a loud bang, and Gao Ge was knocked away again in an instant.

The sound of "bang bang" continued to sound, accompanied by Xiong Tao's crazy roar, and the roar became more and more full of annoyance and anger.

On the sidelines, a man who looked like a domestic servant shook his head: "This tiger clan is really useless, what kind of abuse has he been made by the ice bear people!"

"You know what a!" scoffed an armed man, "the Tiger Clan has no intention of hiding. ”

On the main stage, the core members of the Gaunt family were all surprised.

"This kid ......," Count Bede's old eyes lit up.

Gao Ge hit again and again, and was knocked away again and again, but the space became tighter and tighter.

"Roar!" With a roar that resounded throughout the audience, Xiong Tao's tower-like body suddenly rose a lot higher, thicker and thicker, and he had already directly gone crazy for the second time.

As his body swelled wildly, the heavy armor on his body also made a sharp "crunch" sound, and then stretched out.

After the madness, Xiong Tao didn't stop for a moment, and "whew" hit Gao Ge who came from another impact.

With a loud bang, the round shield made of pure steel was smashed in half, and he himself flew out far away again.

This time, it's enough for you, Xiong Tao gasped violently, and said secretly in his heart.

Under this heavy blow, Gao Ge retreated to the sidelines before barely stopping, he lowered his head, and he was also out of breath.

With a "dang long", Gao Ge threw the half-twisted round shield in his hand to the ground and raised his head.

Gao Ge's face didn't show any timidity, his eyes were actually full of happiness, the corners of his mouth grinned, and he actually smiled: "Hehe, happy! The warm-up is over!"
