Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 659: Chapter 659 Beast Battle Arena_1

”Hmph, for your sake, I’ll spare this junior!”

The Beast King Palace Elder snorted coldly, disdainfully glancing at Wu Xiang before leading the five disciples of the Beast King Palace further inside.

Among them, two were unmistakably Ying Wu Ya and that She Jiao.

Originally, Ling Xiao killed She Mei in Plague Valley, and this She Jiao was She Mei’s twin sister, while Ying Wu Ya was a core disciple of the Beast King Palace.

At that time, Ying Wu Ya was only ranked ninth.

But now, with the Golden Winged Dapeng Martial Soul Inheritance obtained during the trials, Ying Wu Ya had become the second-ranked core disciple of the Beast King Palace, and She Jiao was ranked fifth, both of them possessing very formidable strength.

”Ling Xiao, don’t forget the promise made in Plague Valley. There’s no need for you to go to the Beast King Palace; we’ll settle our score tomorrow at the Sword King Sect!”

Suddenly, Ling Xiao heard a challenging voice transmission from Ying Wu Ya.

”Since you’re provoking, why whisper? Ying Wu Ya, you’d better not disappoint me in tomorrow’s four sects martial meeting!”

Ling Xiao responded with a laugh.

”Brave lad, how arrogant!”

Ying Wu Ya’s pupils suddenly constricted, looking as fierce as a pair of eagle eyes.

Ling Xiao smiled but did not engage Ying Wu Ya any further.

Ying Wu Ya’s face turned incredibly ugly from anger.

”Brother Ying, why bother with verbal sparring with him? In tomorrow’s battle, we’ll take his life!”

She Jiao said in a low voice.

”Of course!”

Following that, everyone from the Beast King Palace went ahead to their accommodations under the leadership of a Sword King Sect Inner Door Elder.

”Let’s go as well.”

Wu Xiang watched the people from the Beast King Palace leave, then turned around and said to the others.

”Excuse me, Elder, may I inquire if the people from the Divine Sword Sect have arrived yet?”

Ling Xiao suddenly asked.

”The Divine Sword Sect? Oh, they arrived yesterday, but they said they were going to have fun in Sword King City. However, a day has passed, and they have not returned yet.”

The Outer Sect Elder spoke with a hint of disdain and a sinister smile flickering at the corners of his mouth.

Ling Xiao frowned slightly.

There was definitely something fishy about this whole affair!

”Is Sword King City the one below the mountain?”

Ling Xiao asked.

”Yes, that’s right. If you’re interested, you could go and have fun in Sword King City. After all, the martial meeting of the four sects doesn’t officially start until tomorrow.”

The Elder said with a smile.

”All right, who wants to come with me?”

Ling Xiao inquired.

Except for Tantai Lingzi, Lan Yu’er, Dai Yuling, and Leng Hao all nodded.

”In that case, Liu Cang, take these honored guests to have some fun in Sword King City.”

The Outer Sect Elder delegated one of his accompanying Outer Disciples as a guide to lead Ling Xiao and the group to Sword King City.

Sword King City was not large, probably not even on the scale of Tianfeng City, yet this city was bustling with martial artists from different regions enjoying themselves and trading.

”Everyone, let’s go in.”

At the entrance of Sword King City, Liu Cang respectfully suggested.

As just an Outer Disciple of the Sword King Sect, although he looked down on the core disciples of the Moon Hua Sect, he dared not offend them.

After all, they were Transcendent Realm Martial Artists, while he was only a Martial Vein Realm Martial Artist. The gap between them was too vast; unless he was seeking death, he truly wouldn’t dare to offend these individuals.

To enter Sword King City, each person had to pay a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones.

This is no small amount, and Liu Cang had no intention of paying on behalf of others.

However, this amount of spirit stones was nothing to Ling Xiao, who casually tossed out four thousand low-grade spirit stones to the guard.

The payment of spirit stones is required not only for them, but for anyone who is not a disciple of the Sword King Sect.

Of course, Liu Cang did not have to pay.

Entering the city, several people couldn’t help but show surprised expressions.

The first impression was just how many people there were; even though the city seemed smaller than Tianfeng City from the outside, the population inside was more than ten times that of Tianfeng City.

”Hehe, this is the most bustling city in the eastern part of the Sacred Dynasty. Don’t be fooled by its size; it uses special array formations to divide several spaces, and its actual size is about the same as that of the Imperial City,”

Liu Cang said proudly, ”This city is under the rule of our Sword King Sect. I bet your Moon Hua Sect doesn’t have one, does it?”

”What can you do here?”

Ling Xiao interrupted Liu Cang’s boasting and asked directly.

”Hehe, dear guests, there are many fun places here; there’s nothing you could imagine that you can’t find!”

Liu Cang chuckled, ”Looking for ravishing beauties capable of toppling cities and kingdoms? Come here!

Looking for handsome young masters? Come here!

Looking to spend lots of spirit stones? Come here!

Looking for thrilling games? You can come here too!

Here, you can purchase almost all top-quality goods from the Heavenly Dragon Continent, including monsters, ferocious beasts, and martial artists!

There’s even a dedicated slave auction house here. Are you interested in taking a look around?”

”Is there anything else?”

Ling Xiao asked indifferently.

”Yes, of course there is! Speaking of Sword King City, the most famous place is naturally the ’Beast Battle Arena’. There, you can enjoy the battles between monster beasts and ferocious beasts as a spectator, a truly electrifying and explosive experience. You can also participate in these fights yourself. After achieving victory, you can receive a large number of rewards,”

Liu Cang said with a smile, ”And the Beast Battle Arena doesn’t just have monster beasts and ferocious beasts; there are also some death row prisoners and slaves. They participate in these life-or-death battles in hopes of gaining their freedom. I’ve heard that there have just been some fresh arrivals. Perhaps you’d like to take a look?”

”Let’s go there and have a look!”

As Ling Xiao asked, he released a powerful soul power, executing the Earth Vision and Sky Hearing technique. About a mile from where they stood should be the location of the Beast Battle Arena.

”Good, follow me, everyone!”

Following Liu Cang, the group arrived in front of a strange, large gate.

That gate stood in place, and one could even walk around it; whether you looked from the front or the back, it was just a gate. But once opened, it led to a whole new world.

”Whooosh—!”

The moment the gate opened, a myriad of noisy sounds all rose at once.

There were claps!

Cheers!

And shouts of killing!

All these sounds intertwined, making the entire space seethe with feverish excitement.

The Beast Battle Arena was similar to the Martial Arts Platform.

The difference was that the Martial Arts Platform is higher than the spectator seats.

However, the fighting ground of the Beast Battle Arena was a large round pit, resembling a basin, surrounded by rows of seats and passageways.

The Beast Battle Arena was already crowded with people, buzzing with activity.

”You came to the right place. The Beast Battle Arena sees a daily foot traffic of no less than one hundred thousand visits, definitely the busiest spot in Sword King City. Our Sword King Sect disciples also often participate in the beast fights here, to hone our battle techniques and incidentally earn some spirit stones to spend,”

Liu Cang explained, pointing at the densely packed crowd sitting around. Seeing the expressions on Ling Xiao and others’ faces, he looked as if he were viewing a bunch of country bumpkins.

”So, the fights in the Beast Battle Arena don’t decide life or death?”

Dai Yuling asked curiously.

”You’re mistaken, miss. The battles in the Beast Battle Arena must result in life or death to conclude. Only when one side dies does the fight end. A powerful array formation is set up inside the arena. Anyone who tries to escape only has one path — death!”
