After everything settled down, Li Yunniang suddenly came to the interest of shopping, and Zhu Youdao of course had to meet his wife's request.

They left their rented sand huts and went to the market in the walled city, which was a street in the very center of the walled city.

The desert market has a different flavor, in addition to the usual goods, there are also a variety of desert specialties for sale on the street.

Li Yunniang hadn't been so relaxed for a long time, she stopped in front of every stall like a little girl, and she had to fiddle with things she hadn't seen before.

Zhu Youdao can also be regarded as a local tyrant, as long as his wife is interested in something, he will not bargain and buy it directly.

The consequence of this is that after they have walked half the street, they are targeted by several waves of gang members.

Although the three major gangs preach to ensure the safety of the outsiders, in the desert, such assurances can only be heard.

They are wolves, once they see meat, how can they bear it?

Of course, in order to maintain the order they have set, they will not snatch it openly, but they will have to find a quiet place to do it again.

Zhu Youdao and Li Yunniang walked all the way, passing by the casino, and seeing that it was very lively, Zhu Youdao smiled and said, "Let's go in and play two?"

Li Yunniang pursed her lips and smiled: "Whatever!"

The two went in hand in hand, and after a while, they lost thousands of spirit stones and came out.

Li Yunniang said: "Husband, they are out of the old man, why don't you do it?"

Zhu Youdao laughed: "Because this is a casino, ten gambles and nine cheats! I'm here to play, I'm happy whether I win or lose, I'm not here to kill, why ruin my interest for thousands of spirit stones!"

They continued on their way, this time passing by the technical institute.

The technical institute in the desert is inevitably a little simple, and the women in it are also very ordinary.

Even so, Zhu Youdao stopped and looked at it a few times.

Li Yunniang pinched his arm: "Husband, go in and play two?"

Zhu Youdao waved his hand: "Don't play, don't play, I have a wife at home, I don't dare to sleep on my feet, and the remnants of flowers and willows outside are even more disdainful!"

Moving on, it's a desert specialty: the gladiatorial arena!

The monks in the desert live a life of licking blood from the knife edge, so they are extremely brave and aggressive, and it is common for them to kill people without saying a word.

Before the Colosseum appeared, the chieftains of the colonies were plagued by unprovoked fights in their spheres of influence.

Since the ban on fighting had no effect, a place was carved out and a ring was built.

If you have a dispute, if you have a grudge, if you want to fight, if you want to kill someone, then go to the ring and solve the problem.

The move was effective, not only with fewer violations of the ban, but also with a large number of onlookers.

The people in power had an idea, began to charge onlookers, and then later, they also set up gambling games on the spot, allowing onlookers to bet on who wins or loses, and slowly developed, forming today's gladiatorial arena.

The Colosseum is no longer just a place to settle disputes, but one of the most popular forms of entertainment.

The people who participated in the gladiatorial fight, some of them volunteered to play in order to earn spirit stones, some were forced to play because of their crimes, some were forcibly captured by the outside monks, and some of the fierce sand beasts and monsters captured were used to challenge the monks, in short, there were more and more tricks in the gladiatorial arena, and more and more spectators were attracted.

When Zhu Youdao took Li Yunniang into the gladiatorial arena, there were two monks in the late stage of Qi cultivation who were fighting in the ring.

This is a typical desert combat style, with a scimitar in close combat, just like a warrior in the mortal world.

This is also due to the environment, and there are often strong winds in the desert that roll up the dust. For Qi cultivation period cultivators, fighting in such an environment, the long-range imperial envoy magic weapon consumes mana extraordinarily, and the wind and sand hinder the observation of the divine sense, and it can't attack too far, but it is not as effective as close melee.

Zhu Youdao was secretly vigilant in his heart, the people he brought were not used to the desert environment, and it seemed that he would have to carry out targeted training in the wind and sand later.

Otherwise, in case of emergencies, it is likely to suffer a big loss!

Moments later, one side of the ring conceded defeat and the gladiatorial fight ended!

There was a shouting and scolding from the audience, apparently, there were no dead people, and the audience was very unhappy with the result.

Zhu Youdao asked about the rules of gladiatorial fighting, and knew that there are two kinds of gladiatorial fighting, one is a fight of life and death, unless one party dies, otherwise the gladiatorial fight will never end; the other is a competitive gladiatorial fight, after admitting defeat, the other party is not allowed to continue to fight.

Obviously, this gladiatorial fight belongs to the latter category.

The next gladiatorial fight soon began, and this time it was a second-order mid-grade sand lion beast!

The Sand Lion is one of the most dangerous sand beasts in the desert, and now it is an adult sand lion that is more than a foot long in a large cage in a specially made cage.

Its opponents were several Qi cultivation period monks, all of whom were still shackled on their hands and feet, and they were thrown into the ring before they were unraveled, apparently all of them were monks who had been caught from outside.

Not only that, but these monks didn't even have a single ordinary weapon in their hands.

Zhu Youdao understood at a glance that this was not a real gladiatorial fight, but to feed the sand lion beasts with these captured monks, and by the way, the audience had a good time.

As soon as the sand lion was released from its cage, it roared and pounced on the monk in the ring.

These monks were in a dying struggle, and the spells they cast were like tickling the sand lion, and they couldn't even hurt the fur.

With each pounce, the Sand Lion can kill a monk and then chew it in large gulps.

The bloody scene did not cause dissatisfaction among the audience, but stimulated them to howl excitedly!

It's just a cup of tea, and the monks who were escorted to the stage were all devoured by the sand lion beast, it didn't seem to be full, looking at the audience, wanting to kill again, but was blocked by the magic circle on the stage, and after trying a few times in vain, it gave up and only lingered on the stage.

At this time, Zhu Youdao had already heard from the monks around him that this sand lion beast was the star fighting beast of the Black Spring Collection, and there had been many foreign foundation building monks who came to the stage to challenge it, and it was killed and eaten.

In the Black Spring Collection, gladiatorial scenes during the foundation building period are rare.

This is because the status of the Zhuji monks is noble, except for a very small number of people who are thirsty for killing, most of them are unwilling to fight hard for the spirit stone in the ring, even if there are Zhuji monks fighting, most of them are invited by the gladiatorial arena, and the two sides fight fiercely, but they will not distinguish between life and death.

Regardless of life and death, it is easy to cheat in the gambling game, and the gladiatorial fight will be much less entertaining.

As a result, the gladiatorial fights of the foundation building monks were not as popular as the gladiatorial fights of the qi cultivators.

And the gladiatorial battle in the foundation building field of the Black Spring Collection has changed a lot since the arrival of this sand lion beast, because it participates in the endless battle of life and death, whether it is the degree of bloodiness or the excitement of the gambling game, it has attracted a large number of audiences to participate.

Of course, those who are willing to come to power are wandering monks who have come from outside, and they are all outlaws, who have long put life and death out of the way.

Knowing that no one came to the stage to challenge the sand lion beast, the manager of the gladiatorial arena still shouted:

"Is there anyone willing to come on stage to challenge the Sand Lion Beast, and the winner will take away the reward of 10,000 spirit stones!"

For the foundation building monks, 10,000 spirit stones are not too much, and they are not worth the effort.

The caretaker shouted again, and was about to call it a day for the sand lion to be driven back to its cage and pulled away, when suddenly he heard a pleasant voice: "I want to challenge!"

The manager was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction from which the voice came, only to see that it seemed to be a young woman with an extremely beautiful face who spoke.

The exit challenge is Li Yunniang, who is standing next to Zhu Youdao.

Seeing Li Yunniang speak, Zhu Youdao did not stop him. This sand lion beast is only equivalent to a monk in the middle stage of foundation building, although it is fierce and murderous, but in terms of means, it is not as dangerous as a human monk.

The only thing to worry about is that the space in this ring is not wide enough, which is inconvenient for Li Yunniang to fight, but it is extremely beneficial to the sand lion beast.

However, Li Yunniang has the sun and moon golden wheel in her hand, and there are many other magic weapons and spirit runes on her body, and there are many life-saving means, so it should be no big problem to deal with it.

Moreover, even if the battle is lost, Zhu Youdao's demon soldier order still has Lei Kedun and Sun Wudao sleeping soundly, and they can be released to save people at any time.

As for the rule that outsiders are not allowed to interfere in the gladiatorial arena, hehe, if you don't have the strength to abide by the rules, it's called the rules, and if you have the strength to break them, it's not called the rules.

The manager looked at it for a while, and then asked uncertainly, "This girl, are you going to challenge the sand lion?"

Li Yunniang nodded.

Because this is a beautiful girl, the manager will kindly remind: "Girl, the sand lion beast is not a domesticated demon beast, going to the ring is a fight of life and death, don't joke with your life!"

Li Yunniang said firmly again: "I want to challenge the sand lion beast!"

Killing a second-order demon beast is like killing a foundation-building monk, and after refining the extracted evil qi, it is enough to increase her mana for a month, since she encounters it, she naturally can't miss it!
