Chapter 16: The Colosseum
As soon as the heavy floodgates opened, Lu Li stepped out first, and his eyes suddenly brightened, even a little dazzling, it was sunshine.
"It's been a long time, sunshine!" narrowed his eyes slightly, and Lu Li silently felt the sunshine bathing.
It was the first time he had left the dark cell since he was imprisoned, and it was the first time he was bathed in the sun again, and it was a really good feeling.
What appeared in front of Lu Li was a huge open-air gladiatorial arena, the shape of which was not much longer than the ancient Roman gladiatorial arena in ancient books, and in the center was an open space the size of four basketball courts.
The clearing is surrounded by a circle of special wire mesh more than ten meters high, and behind the wire mesh are rows of stone seats, from low to high, there are seven or eight rows, and then there are huge smooth mountain walls that rise dozens of meters high.
This gladiatorial arena was on a huge platform at the top of the mountain, which can be said to be the highest point of the entire Mt. Prison of the Mountain.
At this time, the stone seat was already full of people, and there were tens of thousands of people in the dark, and when they saw Lu Li coming out, they all cast their eyes over.
was watched by 10,000 people, Lu Li was also stunned, he didn't expect there to be so many people at the scene, and then he was relieved.
The gladiatorial arena has developed to the present and has formed a huge chain of interests, and he has the two nicknames of "Blood Soul Wizard Who Has Not Been Born in Five Hundred Years" and "Butcher Blood Demon", which will definitely not be carried out in secret.
Of the tens of thousands of people present, I'm afraid most of them spent money to see the excitement, and some of them weren't even blood soul warriors.
"Do you bet on me?"
Lu Li raised his head to feel the sun-drenched bath, and his hands were clenched into fists: If you want to defeat me, are your Mu family ready to pay the price?
"Look, he's coming. β
"Who?"
"Is he the 'Butcher Blood Demon' who was first discovered, and then almost slaughtered the Huang family's courtyard?"
"It's really so young......
"Yes, the sixteen-year-old Blood Soul Master of the late stage of the First Realm is really too young. β
In an instant, the entire gladiatorial arena sounded with a "buzzing" discussion, looking at Lu Li, who squinted and looked up to feel the sun, his expression was complicated, there were envy, jealousy, disgust, and of course, there was no lack of hateful eyes.
"Dad, you must avenge the child, I want to make him worse than dead!" Somewhere in the seat, a young man with a broken arm looked at Lu Li resentfully.
It was Mu Ren, who was caught by Lu Li's right arm, his face was still a little pale at this time, and he had not yet recovered from the heavy wound of the broken arm.
"I have a number!" Mu Huaping frowned, looked at the pale sister-in-law, and said, "You should take care of your injuries at home." β
"No, I'm going to see this little beast get rid of his cultivation with my own eyes!" Mu Ren's eyes were full of resentment.
Mu Huaping shook his head and said nothing more, still feeling great pity in his heart for this son who had high hopes. But thinking that his son's future bloodline cultivation was destined to be bumpy, looking at Lu Li's eyes full of killing intent.
I made up my mind in my heart, when the other party's cultivation was abolished, and after the ancient exercises were tortured, I must cut it into ** with my own hands!
"Brother Mu, is this Lu Li who seriously injured Ling Gongzi?" said a middle-aged man with a short beard next to him.
Mu Huaping put away the killing intent in his eyes, regained his former gentlemanly appearance, and said with a wry smile: "Let Brother He laugh, it's all dogs who are not good at learning." After a pause at this point, he continued:
"It's just that the face of the family can't be insulted, so this gladiatorial arena can only be opened. β
The man in front of him is a member of the He family, another top blood soul clan in Yuzhou, the He family is equal in strength to the Mu family, and almost equally divides the entire Yuzhou, Mu Huaping must at least maintain a superficial harmony.
The middle-aged man surnamed He smiled, and the ghost in his heart believed that you were simply avenging your son, there must be some secret hidden here, if you don't say it, it won't take long to find out.
"It seems that this matter has already attracted the attention of other clans, and we must do our best to torture the ancient exercises!" Mu Huaping knew that it wouldn't be long before other clans would smell the rumors, and then this exercise would not be something that the Mu family could swallow alone.
"But I'm a little curious, for no reason, what is the reason why Lingzi went to Xushan Heavy Prison to see this Lu Li?" said the middle-aged man surnamed He again.
"Alas, it's not to seek justice for his friend Huang Ze's family, but it turned out to be ......," Mu Huaping sighed.
The middle-aged man surnamed He didn't say anything anymore, but sneered in his heart: "The ghost only believes you, who doesn't know that the Huang family is just a dog raised by your Mu family."
Lu Li felt the sunshine, felt that there were a few hateful eyes staring at him, turned his head to look over, and saw Mu Ren with a pale face but a malicious look on his face from a distance.
Lu Li smiled coldly, suddenly stretched out his hand, and Yaoyao made a movement to wipe his neck, the meaning was self-evident.
With a "huh", everyone's eyes in the audience suddenly focused on the location of the Mu family, and their expressions were very rich.
In public, openly wiping the neck of a wealthy family in the last days, how much hatred this must be, most people's hearts are full of curiosity.
At the same time, a whistle suddenly occurred in one of the stands of the Colosseum, but it was a stand reserved for prisoners in heavy prisons.
There are some extremely vicious people imprisoned in the Xushan Heavy Prison, but there are also many people who have offended a certain family for one reason or another, so they are locked up here.
Lu Li's action, although it seemed a little naΓ―ve to them, and even beyond their own strength, made them look very relieved.
"Arrogant!
On the other hand, many people from the world who came to see this gladiatorial battle pouted their lips disdainfully, what about the blood soul wizards who have not been born in five hundred years, it is still a dead end to offend the world clan.
Jointly maintaining the majesty of the world clan is the consensus of all the clans in China, and Lu Li's previous wanton slaughter of the Huang family has already touched their backlash in a certain way.
Of course, there are also people who regret it, but it is just a pity, no one will fight against the Mu family for such a person with no background, even if it is a blood soul wizard who has not been born for five hundred years, because this kind of wizard is often unruly, and it is difficult to really be loyal to a family.
No longer ignoring Mu Ren's resentful gaze, Lu Li turned his gaze to the entire gladiatorial arena, except for the open space in the center, the seating area outside the power grid was also artificially separated by a power grid.
A quarter of the area is dedicated to prisoners in heavy prisons, and the remaining three-quarters are for people outside of heavy prisons, and there is no doubt that anyone who can sit here and watch has a certain status, even if it is a prisoner.
While Lu Li was leaving the entire gladiatorial arena, one of the prison guards had already opened one of the two floodgates on the power grid, and Wang Da had helped him remove the torture instruments from his hands and feet.
Feeling the unimpeded blood element in his body again, Lu Li knew that it was time, took a deep breath, pursed his lips and stepped into the gate.
When the gate was about to close again, the guard who opened the door sneered and said, "Boy, while there is still a little time, enjoy this last sunshine." β
"Hmph, you dare to be the enemy of our Blood Soul Clan, and kill yourself!"
Although he didn't look back, Lu Li couldn't see the other party's expression, but from this contemptuous laughter, he could guess what kind of face he was looking at this time.
Lu Li ignored him and turned his gaze to a weapon rack in the center of the field. There were more than a dozen weapons on it, swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, and eighteen kinds of weapons, which were prepared for him.
With the sound of the gate slamming shut, the entire gladiatorial arena suddenly fell silent.
