Chapter 17: The Colosseum
Not far from the Phoenix Pavilion is the Colosseum, this Colosseum is said to have a very strong background, and there are several major sects involved in it.
In the Song Kingdom, the Colosseum is very attractive to watch, from the princes and nobles, down to the peddlers and pawns, everyone likes the Colosseum very much, and there is also a handicap in the Colosseum, which also attracts many people.
The relationship between this Colosseum is intricate, and it is said that sometimes the demons will be caught, so that the demons and immortal cultivators can compete, which is very mysterious.
With such a strong backstage and mysterious characteristics, many people have no bad thoughts about the Colosseum.
Looking at the central street of Xiong Ercheng against the Phoenix Pavilion not far away, a magnificent structure of the building, in the left and right two stone altars each erected a two zhang high flagpole, the top of the flagpole fluttering cyan flag. On the flag on the left is embroidered with red silk thread a mighty male lion, the flag moves with the wind, and it seems that the male lion has come to life, very fierce. The flag on the right is embroidered with three big black characters of "Colosseum", which is very extraordinary, and if you stare at it for a long time, you will have some vertigo, which is very mysterious.
Zhao Jin dressed up in disguise and found a mask for himself to wear on his face, this mask allowed the scabbard to be refined, which could block the detection of other people's spiritual sense, and at the same time, it was very useful, so he could cover himself.
This mask is a ghost mask, the mask is a gloomy dark red, a protruding high nose towering high, two weirdly curved eyebrows, and there is no hole in the eyes of the ghost mask, but a pair of eyes that seem to be alive, at first glance it seems to be a pair of real eyes, and it looks like a pair of blood-red eyes, and the teeth are as sharp and straight as steel blades.
Because such a mask had been refined by a special method in the scabbard, it did not prevent him from seeing the world through the ghost mask. There is no discomfort on the face of the ghost mask, it is very magical, and I don't know what method the scabbard is used to refine. Zhao Jin asked Master Scabbard about the ghost mask, but Master Scabbard didn't respond to him.
There are a pair of hideous horns on the top of the ghost mask's head, and it would be very scary to meet him at night.
Looking at it now, it is extremely weird, if you see Zhao Jin wearing a ghost mask at night, you may have nightmares when you go home.
In order to protect himself, these disguises must be done, and now that Zhao Jin is dressed like this, no one should recognize that he is the genius waste of the Zhao family. Zhao Jin's father would not recognize him when he saw him like this.
And he can't let his father know, otherwise Zhao Jin's father will definitely not let him participate in the Colosseum competition, even if he is allowed to participate, it will make his father worry abnormally, in order not to let his father worry, Zhao Jin needs this kind of cover-up.
After cleaning up, Zhao Jin walked quickly and generously like a Colosseum, and the guard at the door was a little curious about the ghost mask on his face, so he didn't say anything and let him go normally. These Colosseum guards have seen all kinds of strange people, and they are no longer strange at this time.
After entering the Colosseum, I didn't take a few steps before I found that there was a person inside, which was full of voices, lively and abnormal, with cheers, angry scolding, and roars of pain after failure in the fight, which made people feel as if they had arrived in another world.
Zhao Jin observed some of the people around him, and did not go to watch the fight that was taking place, after asking the colosseum to know the place where the fight was registered, Zhao Jin searched along the place he had told him before, and found the place.
Pushing the door in, this room was a little deserted, a middle-aged man sat quietly on the Taishi chair, heard the sound of pushing the door, saw Zhao Jin with a ghost mask, and asked coldly: "Cultivator, are you going to participate in the Colosseum competition?"
"Yes. Under the ghost mask, Zhao Jin replied calmly.
"Then register, what realm are you?" The middle-aged man sat on the Taishi chair, picked up a brush and spread a booklet on the desk, and registered according to the process.
More than a month ago, Zhao Jin and his father had come to the Colosseum to learn most of the Colosseum's affairs, and knew what they needed to tell when registering.
"Name: Ghost Mask, Six Layers of Qi Training. ”
After registering, the middle-aged man took out a written life and death certificate for Zhao Jin to sign, Zhao Jin had already known that he needed to sign such a life and death certificate to participate in the competition, indicating that he voluntarily participated in life and death at his own risk. The Colosseum's competition is now very perfect, in the process of the competition, falling to the ground or dying is losing, of course, you can also admit defeat during the competition, and the participants are beaten away from the competition is also lost.
The Colosseum will try its best to ensure the lives of those who participate in the Colosseum, but it is still inevitable that there will be deaths during the competition, unless you do not participate in the Colosseum.
Zhao Jin had already known about these things before, and quickly signed the ghost mask. After signing, it seems that a certain string of life has been touched in the dark.
"Ghost Mask, when are you going to fight?" the middle-aged man was a little curious about his registered name, and asked according to the established process?
"The sooner the better. ”
"This, we'll try to arrange it, I'll check it out, you wait a little bit. The middle-aged man looked at the other booklet and said, "There is a competition suitable for you this afternoon, and the fighter is a seventh-level Qi practitioner. ”
The competition during the Qi training period, the rules of the Colosseum are that the participants are no more than three layers apart, Zhao Jin heard that it was the seventh layer of Qi training, for this arrangement, Zhao Jin had nothing to worry about, he was very self-conscious, and he readily agreed.
"Ghost Mask, this is your token for participating in the Colosseum. The middle-aged man came to this room not long after he went out, and handed over a token to Zhao Jin, this token is like jade and not jade, and it is very comfortable to touch in his hand. The token had a ghost mask written on it, and looking at the token on his hand that looked like jade and not jade had his name written on it, for a moment Zhao Jin felt that this ghost mask was his real name, which was a little weird and a little wonderful.
It seems that this Colosseum is much more mysterious than he imagined, and there are many secrets hidden in it, Zhao Jin kept these thoughts in his heart and did not ask rashly.
And in the adjacent room of this room, there was an old man who saw Zhao Jin take the token, and he was very happy, and his face was full of red light. In his eyes, it was very hot, as if he had found some treasure. Thinking that such a genius young man died in the Colosseum, and his blood soaked the Colosseum in the Colosseum, such a soul and blood belonged to the adult, and the adult must have liked it very much. It seems that the scabbard did not find the old man in the next room.
After Zhao Jin left this room, the middle-aged man who had just registered him said to himself, "I hope this young man can live in the Colosseum for a while longer, and don't let his token return to my hand in a short time." After finishing speaking, he sat quietly on the Taishi's chair and did his own work.
