AS SOON AS they entered, what welcomed them were the other participants of the elimination round. Some pairs of eyes were particularly competitive; the others, on the other hand, were nonchalant. Some blabbered about the ways they trained, while some were busy talking to their friends. There were some who were meditating as well.
As for them, they only waited for the announcement about the rules and the competition proper. With crossed arms, Yang Lujia leaned his back on a black wall by the side of the arena, his eyes closed.
On the other hand, Lin Diyu and the other two were given the discretion by their master to wander around the arena. Long Guang was sitting on his senior brotherâs shoulders. On the other hand, Feng Huang was carried by Lin Diyu in one of his arms. Both of them were pretty light, so it didnât really matter to him.
It was just that Feng Huang kept staring at him. If it were not for the fact that the two were quite enthralled by the arenaâs design, he wouldnât have the time to breathe properly. After all, although Feng Huang was like this, he was going to be her senior brother soon. He had to keep the façade of being the eldest disciple.
Not to mention, these two little chunks were ten-year-olds.
âLong Guang, you should learn from your senior brother. Look at his aura. He sure likes to kill. You, too, should like to kill others! As for me, I just want to marry someone who likes to slaughter people and beasts!â Feng Huang suggested, her lips licking..
Long Guang was stunned for a while. Not sooner, his eyes glistened. âRayt! Long Guang kil! Master twold to kil!â
Feng Huang just smiled sinisterly. She was a pretty girl, but if anyone were to see her smile at the moment, they would probably think of her as a she-devilâespecially when Yang Lujia altered her physical appearance after knowing what happened in Guile City.
If they were to join the elimination round with that girl on their side, would anyone still dare to challenge them?
In fact, he had another agenda for why they were here. Apart from helping Long Guang exact his revenge and helping Feng Huang save her sister, he wanted these three ignorant little lumps to know what it was like to be suppressed.
Although he received the dissatisfaction of Long Guang and Feng Huang, he was pretty satisfied with what he did. Only when they were in danger could he, step by step, return to their cultivation levels.
Long Guang was currently at the First Stage of the God King Realm. Yang Lujia knew better than anyone what this little dragon was capable of. He could basically fight God Emperors at this stage, so he didnât really bother with him. As for Feng Huang, he knew that she was a bit below Long Guang in terms of talent, so he kept her cultivation level at the Third Stage of the God King Realm. Probing into her energy also made him decide this.
He also didnât want Lin Diyu to know the cultivation levels of his little junior brother and his future little junior sister. He didnât want his disciple to degrade himself for lacking the talent the other two had. Therefore, although he suppressed Lin Diyuâs cultivation, it was still at the Sixth Stage of the God King Realm. Unless someone could cross-level fight like him, no one would be his opponent.
As for Yang Lujia, he didnât need to suppress anything. He even looked like a mortal at the moment.
âHey, can you see those kids? Are they also participants?â A woman wearing her flowy hanfu dress was quite taken aback by the sight of Feng Huang and Long Guang. âWas that their big brother who was carrying them?â
A man then nodded. âMaybe that young man would be the only one participating. As for the other young man there on the wallâ¦â He snickered. âI didnât think heâd even defeat an ant. Heâs simply a mortal.â
The woman was a bit irritated but concealed her emotions as she heaved a sigh. âRemember what the master told us?â Do not underestimate anyone. Do you think all four of them are normal? Try to probe into the cultivation levels of those three, especially those two little kids!â
The man still sneered, but when he tried to sneak into the cultivation levels of the three, he received a backlash instead. He vomited a mouthful of blood. This worried the woman. She hadnât thought this would happen.
Why did it not happen to her then?
Then, she turned her head to look at Yang Lujia, whose eyes were currently open and staring at hers. Inconceivably, she shivered and shied away from his gaze. These four people were terrifying!
Helping her brother stand up, she immediately said, âBrother, take the healing pill to heal your minor injuries. Donât provoke them any further, especially that young man on the wall.â
With blood on the side of his lips, the man was too stunned to speak. âWhy?â
âJust donât. If you donât believe me, then I wonât stop or save you even if youâre my brother.â
Her brother just nodded and they went away from Yang Lujiaâs view. This made the latter smile. âProbing into our secrets is a taboo. Donât you know that, young man? Fortunately, that woman had not tried to provoke him or his disciples. Otherwise, she would receive a minor injury just like her companion.
Not long after, Lin Diyu and the other two went back to where their master was. They looked at Yang Lujia and were thrilled to try to fight against their enemies. Long Guang, in particular, was holding back the urge to kill.
âLong Guang, you must refrain from killing. Thatâs certainly one of the rules of the competition. Otherwise, youâll lose,â Yang Lujia mumbled, then turned his glance to Feng Huang. âYou, too, little bird.â
âHmph!â Feng Huang crossed her arms in dissatisfaction.
Hearing their conversation, some others couldnât help but chuckle. These four were actually like clowns. However, what they didnât know was that Yang Lujia and the three were really serious about their conversation. This was their normal kind of thing, which others would find above normal.
A few minutes later, a ringing sound echoed throughout the entire arena. It almost deafened some of the weaker participants. Some peopleâs bodies were even surging with fighting intent. The area around them was getting hyped up. The moment the ringing sound stopped, the atmosphereâs temperature instantly dropped.
Fierce!
From this, Yang Lujia could surmise that the elimination round was finally about to start!
