The passage of the gate of the arena of Aris is very wide, and the stone walls in the passage are inlaid with fluorescent stones, making it bright and bright, comparable to the lighting effect of magic lamps.

Fluorescent stone is a luminous ore substance, which is not very precious, and one silver karl is enough to buy a dozen.

Bu Tian reads the books in the library system every day in his spare time, and has a detailed understanding of many things in the French continent, avoiding the embarrassing scene of making a fuss when he sees something new.

The group gradually came to the end of the passage, and they could already see the huge gladiatorial arena outside the passage.

"Count Warren, I didn't expect you to come so early?"

A slightly old voice suddenly came from behind him.

Count Warren stopped, turned and looked back, only to see a line of guards surrounded by an old man and a young man walking slowly. The moment he saw the old man, Earl Warren greeted him with a smile on his face, and said politely: "Lord Marquis Kenneth is also early, it seems that he has great hopes for this challenge." ”

The old man, who was called Kenneth by Count Warren, had white hair, loose muscles on his face, but sharp eyes, and he approached everyone with the young man at this moment, shook his head at Count Warren and smiled bitterly: "I am almost at the age of entering the earth, and I still talk about what I hope and don't want, but I can't stand the pleading of my grandson, and I reluctantly accept this matter before letting him participate in the qualification challenge." ”

After the Marquis Kenneth finished speaking, he looked at the young man beside him again, and asked him to salute Count Warren.

This young man is a few years older than Butian, with short coffee-colored hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a calm face. He obediently gave Count Warren a noble salute and said hello.

Bu Tian heard that this person was also participating in the qualification challenge, and he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and after realizing that it was just a low-level 1 strength, he stopped paying attention.

Seeing that Count Warren was still greeting the old Kenneth man, Bu Tian greeted Locke a little boringly, and after telling Count Warren that he was going to see the playing field, he walked out of the passage.

Out of the passage, Butian looked forward, and the scene in his eyes made him a little dazed.

According to his idea, the challenge is not all written in the novels of the previous life, making huge rings, and two contestants fighting back and forth on it. Whoever wins will advance, and whoever loses will get out of the way or go to the knockout round.

But the scene in front of him completely subverted the idea in Butian's heart.

In addition to the densely packed spectator seats that surround the circle, there is a field the size of four or five football fields in the middle surrounded by spectators, that is, the gladiatorial arena.

What about the ring? Butian didn't see any ring. He looked at the vast gladiatorial arena suspiciously, and thought to himself: "Is it difficult that the challenge is that nearly 10,000 people gather together to start a melee? ”

Locke sensed Butian's doubts on the side, and couldn't help but come closer, and asked in a low voice, "Master, is there anything you don't understand?"

Bu Tian turned his head and glanced at Locke, and asked with some confusion: "Locke, what kind of game is this so-called qualification challenge?"

Locke was depressed when he heard this, his master, is he from the French Continent.

I didn't know that there were awards in the Qualifying Challenge, after all, there are still some people who don't know. However, the rules of this qualifying tournament have spread widely, and basically anyone with a little strength will know it.

Locke thought that Butian should know the rules of the competition when he promised Count Warren to participate in the challenge on behalf of the Edra family, but he didn't think that he, the best master, would agree to others without knowing anything.

In fact, Butian is also limited by his own thinking, and he always likes to substitute things in the Fran Continent into the novels of his previous life.

For example, this qualification challenge, he thinks that it should be like written in the novel in his previous life, two contestants fight back and forth, which is the so-called qualification challenge. Therefore, after thinking about it, Bu Tian still responded to this matter, thinking that it was only this kind of Cheng Dù competition, which would hardly pose a threat to his life.

Count Warren didn't expect that Bu Tian didn't know anything about the qualification challenge that was famous throughout the Holy Order Alliance. At that time, Bu Tian and he talked about the conditions, and he thought that the other party knew the danger of the qualification challenge, otherwise how could he be so open-mouthed.

And just like that, a wonderful misunderstanding arose. Everyone thought that Butian knew the danger of the qualification challenge, but Butian, the party concerned, had a black eye and didn't know anything.

Shaking his head slightly, Locke still explained to Butian: "Master, qualification challenges are generally held in a wide enough venue, and they are generally divided into several rounds in turn, and the number of participants in each round does not exceed a thousand.

At the beginning of the challenge, the participants of that round enter the competition venue.

At the same time, there were hundreds of alchemy puppets that were put into the competition venue, and these alchemy puppets were very strong, most of them were low-level 1-level puppets, and the remaining half were low-level 2-level puppets. ”

Speaking of this, Locke paused, he looked at Butian, and said with a little hesitation: "Hundreds of alchemy puppets, their strength is extremely strong, they will make a move on the contestants at the first time, and they will not stop attacking if they don't completely smash these alchemy puppets." ”

"Fighting the alchemy puppet?" Butian was a little silent, he had learned about the power of alchemy items in a book called "A Detailed Explanation of the Alchemy World".

There is also a description of the alchemy puppet in this book, calling it an emotionless fighter qì.

A thousand contestants, battling hundreds of alchemy golems. Don't look at the advantage in numbers, no matter how many people there are, there will always be people who retreat and are afraid of casualties.

Alchemy puppets are not human, they have no thoughts, they will only act according to orders, and they will attack desperately without arms and legs. Unless their energy cores are completely shattered, there is nothing to stop them from moving forward.

The energy core of alchemy golems is generally protected by thick steel armor, and it is extremely difficult to start from this aspect.

"Not only that, but hundreds of alchemy golems will have special alchemy ropes tied to their heads. The low-tier 1 golem has one tied to it, and the low-tier 2-level golem has two tied to it.

Such alchemy ropes are usually invisible and intangible. The Alchemy Rope will only be visible after the golem has been completely smashed, and the only way to rank in the Qualifier Challenge is to see who has obtained enough Alchemy Rope. ”

Locke continued without being shocked.

Butian's face darkened a little. Damn, in a qualifying challenge of this difficulty, he was completely cheated by Earl Warren.

"Who got more alchemy ropes than whom?, so can you rob someone else?" Bu Tian suddenly thought of a little and hurriedly asked Locke.

"Absolutely. In the Festival, it's all about whose fist is bigger. Locke looked at Butian as a matter of course, and said in an affirmative tone.

"Also, basically every round of the challenge is one out of a thousand, and only the first place is taken.

In other words, only the strong ones in first place are eligible to advance and continue to participate in the following competitions.

Of course, the second and third place finishers can also participate in the knockout rounds to determine their rankings, but they can only be ranked after the first place in each challenge. ”

Locke seemed to feel that he hadn't made it clear yet, and went on to add: "That is, the first place in each round of the challenge will advance and can participate in the next match.

The second and third place finishers in each round of the challenge will participate in the knockout round, and the first place in the knockout round will also be able to participate in the next competition. The rest, whether or not they have obtained the alchemy rope, are eliminated. ”

"......" Butian is clear, this so-called challenge is a naked jungle.

It's just throwing hundreds of alchemy ropes and letting a thousand people grab them, fighting to the death. With many competitors taking the strong as the king, following the law of the jungle, and having a 90% elimination rate, the difficulty of this qualification challenge can be called terrifying.

As soon as Butian and Locke were talking, Count Warren and the others also ended their conversation, walked out of the passage, and walked towards them.

"How's it going? Nephew, this arena is big enough. You'll have to show me a good deal later, I'm very confident in you. The glory of House Edra is up to you. ”

Before Count Warren approached Butian's side, he laughed and said to him, the smile on his face like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Butian had a dark face, and he couldn't wait to step on the old guy's chrysanthemum-blooming face. This time, he was choked enough by this old fox, and after asking for a little advantage, he made a thug for others in a daze.

And afterwards, he was still complacent, holding a few broken skill books and a set of broken equipment and laughing mischievously, thinking that he had slaughtered this old guy fiercely. Who knew that the person who was slaughtered was himself, and it is estimated that others are still laughing at him for being stupid.

"Hey..."sighed in his heart, and Butian secretly smiled bitterly.

At this point, there was no turning back. Besides, Butian is still a little confident in his own strength, but he is just a little unhappy to be pitted.

"Uncle, you always smile so happily that others don't know that you have any secret cards. Let's keep a low profile, a low profile, you see, people around you are noticing. ”

Butian was in a depressed mood, and said to Count Warren in a somewhat squeezed tone.

Earl Warren was choked by Butian's words, he looked around, and sure enough, he saw Marquis Kenneth and his group looking at this place with a suspicious expression, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and nodded at each other with a dry smile.

He was also a little high-spirited and a little more public. Didn't you see that Kenneth's old guy was just letting his grandson, who had just reached the first level of his strength, compete. At this level, it is not comparable to Butian, so Count Warren is full of ambition and feels superior.

"Ahem, nephew, you only entered the competition in the second round. For now, let's go to the audience and wait. ”

Count Warren coughed dryly twice and smiled at Butian.

"Let's go, Brent, we, the Edra family, have reserved a VIP seat. Wendy smiled sweetly at Butian and tugged at his sleeve.

Butian nodded, and led Locke to the stone stairs of the auditorium with everyone, walking in the direction of the VIP seats.
