The sun was shining on this day, and the colosseum in the west of the city was also fluttering with colorful flags. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Colosseum is a typical ancient European building, which is said to have been built as early as the time when the city was still a slave system, and was used to perform slaves fighting with beasts.

Now the Colosseum is the territory of the city defense army, and it has been used for various training of the city defense army in peacetime.

Only when it comes to the annual city competition, it will be vacated, decorated, and held this martial arts competition.

Early in the morning, Zhang Ang took Arnold and Old Ivan to the gate of the Grand Colosseum.

The entrance to the gladiatorial arena was already bustling with people.

Zhang Ang had never seen so many nobles as he did today.

These nobles, men and women, young and old, were mostly dressed in magnificent aristocratic dresses, and were followed by groups of servants, some of whom held various armor and weapons, some of whom carried flags embroidered with family crests, and some of whom carried food and wine. The nobles greeted each other and walked into the Colosseum together.

There are also some nobles who look much more down, their dresses are very shabby, their armor is also tattered, and only their weapons are shiny.

According to old Ivan, these are also nobles, but they are not willing to be bound by the fief, and after selling the fief given by the king, they wander around the continent alone, seeing the martial arts of various factions in order to increase their strength.

Most of these wandering nobles returned to their cities on the eve of the city competition, and those who did not come back were either dead or addicted to martial arts, not caring about the identity of the nobles.

But both the richly dressed nobles and the shabby-dressed nobles were all muscular, and most of them had their temples bulging high. There is not a single weakling.

Zhang Ang also followed the flow of people and walked to the big gladiatorial arena.

At the entrance of the Colosseum, there was a special city guard to check everyone's noble badges, and only official nobles and their servants were allowed to enter.

The Colosseum is surrounded by high stands, and in the middle is a jousting arena the size of a football field. In the stands are rows of stone seats.

Zhang Ang followed the people in front of him to the stands, and there were already many people sitting in the stands.

These people were faintly divided into three circles, one was the nobles in the city who were very tastefully dressed, and most of their weapons were relatively delicate and small. One is a nobleman outside the city who wears red and green, looks like an upstart, and most of his weapons are stupid and black. The other is a wandering aristocrat with dirty and shabby dresses and all kinds of weapons.

Zhang Ang thought that he should also be regarded as a nobleman in the city, so he went to the circle of nobles in the city with Arnold and Old Ivan and found a place to do it.

The nobles in the city who were sitting in a circle only glanced at Zhang Ang, and did not come to talk to him, nor did they come to drive him away.

Not long after, the presiding officer of the tournament, Count Marceau, arrived, and with him came a procession of observers from the Holy See, and together they went up to the highest stand in the gladiatorial arena.

The white-robed old man who is side by side with the earl is Zhang Ang's biggest enemy now: Bishop Martin.

Zhang Ang looked carefully, and saw that Bishop Martin was indeed quite old, with white hair, but he was very well-groomed, with a smile on his face, at first glance, he looked like a very kind old man, but a huge hooked nose destroyed the beauty of the whole face, and the plainness made him feel cold and cruel.

He was followed by a black-robed and white-edged church minister, and a black-robed priest, who stood respectfully to the side after the bishop sat down.

The division of status in the Duji Martial God Sect is also closely related to its own strength.

Only those who have reached the level of official samurai can apply to become a priest, and after passing the examination, they will receive a gray robe.

If you reach the Great Samurai, you can apply to become a priest, and after passing the assessment, you will receive a black robe.

Martial arts masters can apply to become a leader, and after passing the assessment, they will receive a white-edged black robe.

And Bishop Martin, who is dressed in a white robe, must have the strength of a martial arts master.

I heard that on top of this, there are also the white-robed and red-edged archbishops, the red-robed archicons, the red-robed cardinals and cardinals, and the white-robed and gold-edged pope who represents the pinnacle of martial arts in the whole continent.

The Holy See is truly a behemoth.

Zhang Angmo clutched the wooden box hidden in his sleeve, and secretly made up his mind that if he found a good opportunity, he would definitely give the hook-nosed Bishop Martin a hard blow and knock him to the dust.

But it must not be discovered by others, otherwise the Duji Martial God Sect will be crushed by the layers of heavy pressure.

That box was the life-saving magic weapon he got by lottery.

"Rainstorm Pear Flower Needle" (Power Enhancement Version): 7-star special props, peerless secret weapons, secret of the Tang Sect, 'blood must be seen when you come out, and the air is ominous, and the king of hidden weapons is urgent'. (This is a power enhancement version, reducing the number of uses, greatly increasing the power, the current number of uses: 3/3)

This is synthesized by Zhang Ang from the regular version of the "Rainstorm Pear Flower Needle" (6 stars) and a "Prop Enhancement Bead" (5 stars) that Zhang Ang drawn.

With a wave of his hand from the Earl on the highest platform, a row of huge horns and trombones were sounded, representing the official start of the city's competition.

The first to start was Lord Dabi.

The nobles who were called by name went down to show their martial arts in turn, some of them changed their armor and went down in person, and some of them sent their subordinates.

These lords or their subordinates have both advantages and disadvantages in martial arts, some of which are simple but full of murderous intent, and some of which are gorgeous but have no actual combat value at all.

But without exception, each of them has cultivated their internal strength, and they are all genuine full-fledged samurai.

Among them, the good ones were cheered and applauded by everyone. Those who don't perform well can get a big boo.

Most of these outstanding performers, who are full of murderous spirits, are wandering nobles, and some other nobles who are older or their subordinates.

There are several of them, and Zhang Ang feels that if he is right, he will definitely not be pleased.

After all, he has just become a formal samurai, and basically has no experience in fighting with others, although the moves of "Ku Ding Jieniu Knife Method" are strange and powerful, but when he is about to fight, he may not be able to maintain his composure.

After all, practicing alone and fighting the enemy are two completely different concepts.

Therefore, Zhang Ang also made up his mind that in the future, he would hire a great warrior with rich combat experience to teach him, after all, it is not a matter for him and Arnold to always work behind closed doors. After all, there is still a high probability that he will go to the battlefield.

By the time all the Lords had finished demonstrating their martial arts, it was almost dark, and the Lord's Challenge had to wait for the next day.

Zhang Ang also wants to take a good look at what the process of this ranking challenge is.
