Most of the time, the victor of the Blood Fighting Pit was the death of one side. At this moment, the victorious Demon Race was holding a bloody head and a beating Demon Heart in his hand as he stood atop a mountain peak, spinning around to let the surrounding Demon Race spectators admire his heroic victory. This bloody and cruel scene seemed to be extremely favored by the Demon Race, and the cheers were louder.
After a long time, the victorious Demon Race cultivator stuffed the still beating Demon Heart into his mouth and took a big bite, as if he was eating delicious food, his expression filled with joy and his mouth full of blood…
The central square suddenly became dark and nothing could be seen. It was only at this time that the cheers from the surrounding crowd gradually died down. No one was surprised by this. Yang Kai followed the local customs and quietly observed the situation. Together with Xiao Wu, he found their seats and sat down.
While they were waiting, a few scantily clad women with trays in their hands were shuttling through the audience. These trays were filled with cups filled with dark red liquid. Yang Kai didn’t know what they were, but he saw that many of the Demon Race’s women had summoned their demon crystals and were happily drinking from them.
Out of curiosity, he also bought a cup and spent a thousand high-grade demon crystals.
As soon as he tasted it, there was a faint smell of blood. Turning to Xiao Wu, he asked, “What is this?”
Xiao Wu’s face was pale as she said, “Some women make mistakes and will be imprisoned and fed with some special things. After a few years, their blood will become different, releasing their blood and refining it…”
She didn’t dare to continue, but Yang Kai knew what was going on.
Nodding slightly, he said, “Enlightenment.”
Saying so, he drained the contents of his cup in one gulp, a look of unsatisfaction appearing on his face.
Xiao Wu was dumbfounded! Wasn’t this man a human? Why was he as bloodthirsty as the Demon Race?
After a moment of silence, the central square below suddenly lit up again, but this time, it was no longer a world of ice and snow, but a field covered in yellow sand. Just as Xiao Wu had said, there was a mysterious Spirit Array set up in the Blood Fighting Pit. As long as the Spirit Array was activated, it would be able to freely change.
A Demon King flew high into the sky and shouted excitedly, “The next battle will be between the Vicious Bee and the Mad Python. If he win this battle, the Vicious Bee will win ten consecutive victories in the Blood Fighting Pit and will also win the generous prizes provided by the Blood Fighting Pit! The Vicious Bee is very experienced and has a crafty attack. Although the Mad Python has only fought three battles in the Blood Fighting Pit, it is not to be underestimated. All three of its victories have completely crushed its opponent. Let’s see who is stronger and who is weaker!”
As soon as his voice fell, a group of Demon Race masters appeared on both sides of the Blood Fighting Pit.
The two Demon Race masters were both Demon Kings with Demonic Qi surging from their bodies and similar cultivation levels. One of them was thin and small while the other was tall and sturdy, a stark contrast.
The desert’s environment was clearly visible. The two Demon Kings stared at each other across the entire battlefield, their eyes filled with a cold light and clear murderous intent, but neither of them showed any intention of attacking, instead quietly waiting for something.
In the audience, many people were busy taking out their number plates and using their Divine Senses.
Yang Kai looked on curiously while Xiao Wu explained, “They should be betting. If Sir wants to bet, you only need to pour your Divine Sense into the number plate to operate it. After betting, the battle should begin.”
So that’s how it was! Yang Kai immediately immersed his Divine Sense into the number plate and found that there were some changes to the number plate, as well as additional betting options. However, from the odds, it was obvious that the Blood Fighting Pit was more optimistic about the Vicious Bee’s ten win streak because the odds were only two to one, while the Mad Python’s odds were one to one.
In addition, there was also Yang Kai’s betting information, but at the moment, it was all zero.
Yang Kai only had nine hundred thousand demon crystals on him, and since he had just arrived, he didn’t know which of these two was stronger, so he naturally didn’t want to bet on it.
At the very least, he had to understand the rules here.
After a short while, the Demon Race in the spectator stands should have finished placing their bets, and those who didn’t should not have such intentions, so there was no need to wait any longer.
With two loud clangs, the battle was about to begin.
As soon as this voice fell, the two Demon Kings had already flown towards the center of the Sand, and in less than a dozen breaths, they had already clashed. Just as the Demon Race host had said, the Vicious Bees were extremely experienced in combat and his attacks were extremely tricky. Coupled with his nimble physiques, he waas able to suppress the burly Mad Python.
However, this Mad Python fellow should be a Stone Demon. His skin was tough and his defense was outstanding, only defending and not attacking. The Vicious Bee’s scattered attacks had no effect on him, so for a time, the two of them were locked in a fierce battle.
The battle between the two Demon Kings was naturally extremely intense. Demonic Qi surged and Demonic Qi vibrated, causing sand and stones to fly about in the central square.
However, after observing for a while, Yang Kai understood what was happening. Although the Mad Python’s defense was quite good, its opponent’s figure was simply too agile, so he was unable to hit it. On the contrary, his opponent was constantly wearing down his strength and Demonic Qi, so if he didn’t have any trump cards, the outcome would be quite worrying.
This battle lasted for a full hour. Seeing that the Mad Python was on the verge of collapse, the Vicious Bee rushed forward with a dagger in its hand, preparing to kill it in a single blow. However, at this moment, the Mad Python’s body suddenly released a golden light that instantly covered a radius of a thousand meters.
The Vicious Bee's body suddenly froze, revealing a weak point.
Mad Python grinned maliciously and strode forward, a thick Demon Treasure Wheel appearing in his hand as he smashed it towards the Vicious Bee's head, as if victory and defeat had been decided.
The Vicious Bee was also laughing, just as the Demonic Treasure was about to strike, its figure suddenly flickered and split into two, two into four, and four into eight, surrounding the Mad Python.
The eight figures flashed towards the center and once again merged into one.
The scene seemed to freeze for a moment before the Vicious Bee figure reappeared, its back facing Mad Python as it slowly swung its dagger.
The Mad Python was still maintaining its offensive stance, but its figure had already frozen in place, the smile on its face didn't have the time to converge as its eyes filled with disbelief.
With a loud bang, his burly body fell onto the sand, sending sand flying everywhere. There is no injury, but he had lost all vitality!
The audience burst into an uproar, and the Demon Race who had placed their bets naturally smiled happily. After all, the Demon Race who had won the Demon Crystal is happy while the Demon Race who lost the Demon Crystal had ugly expressions as they cursed. If it weren’t for Mad Python’s death, they would have rushed forward to tear him to pieces to vent their hatred.
The central square once again became dark as a new round of battle preparations began…
Each time the two sides fought, their strengths were roughly the same, at least in the same realm. After all, if the difference in strength was too great, it wouldn’t be worth watching. Every round, countless Demons would place bets, but with the Blood Fighting Pit adjusting the odds, the biggest winner would naturally be the Blood Fighting Pit.
This place was truly a money tree! Yang Kai secretly admired Yu Rumeng, wondering just how rich this woman was.
After watching this battle for a few rounds, Yang Kai had become familiar with the rules here, so he didn’t wait any longer. In the next few battles, he had also made a few bets, so although his eyesight was quite good, he hadn’t expected to suffer such a great loss.
Initially, he had been counting on the hundreds of thousands of demon crystals he had on him to earn a fortune, but who would have thought that after a few rounds, he would lose everything.
He was so angry he almost cursed.
If he could properly perceive the situation between the two sides, Yang Kai estimated that he wouldn’t have lost so miserably. The main reason was because of the isolation of the Spirit Array, so he was unable to determine the level of the two people who fought each time. He could only use his naked eyes to observe them, so after one or two mistakes, he naturally had no chance of winning.
Yang Kai’s plan to earn more demon crystals had failed, so he couldn’t be bothered to stay here any longer. He called out to Xiao Wu and prepared to retreat.
Xiao Wu didn’t seem to like this place, so when she saw him leaving, she naturally followed him happily.
Although they had been betting all this time, no one had come to collect the demon crystals, because when each guest left the Blood Fighting Pit, the number plate would be taken back. The number plate recorded all the betting information, and the winners and losers would be clear at a glance. If they lost, they would have to pay the demon crystals to the Blood Fighting Pit before they left, so winning was naturally the same.
No one dared to renege on their debt in the Blood Fighting Pit, unless they wanted to die.
Yang Kai now had less than eight hundred and eighty thousand demon crystals left, which was the sum he had lost from the number plate.
However, after the two of them had only taken a few steps, the central square lit up again, and at this moment, a burst of exclamations sounded from the audience as if they had seen something incredible.
Yang Kai casually turned his head and glanced over, his eyes suddenly widening as he stopped in his tracks and stared at the sky above the central square.
Xiao Wu, who was behind him, didn’t pay attention and directly knocked into his back, immediately apologizing in panic.
Yang Kai waved his hand at her, indicating that there was nothing wrong, and then carefully looked at the figure in the center of the stage. Yes, Yu Rumeng was there!
No, no, that wasn’t Yu Rumeng, that was…
Li Shiqing!
Yu Rumeng had always used Li Shiqing’s face in the Star Boundary, so Yang Kai was naturally familiar with this face. Now that he suddenly saw this face in the middle of the arena, he thought it was Yu Rumeng, but after realizing it, he realized it was Li Shiqing.
Yang Kai had also asked about Li Shiqing’s whereabouts from Yu Rumeng, but Yu Rumeng hadn’t told him. Now he understood that this woman had actually been brought to the Demon Territory, and that she was in the Phantom Continent’s Blood Fighting Pit.
He had never interacted with the real Li Shiqing before, and neither of them knew each other, but this woman was still the disciple of Great Emperor Flower Shadow. Since they had met in the Demon Territory, he naturally couldn’t ignore her.
But what was this scene in front of him doing? Could it be that the Demon Race wanted Li Shiqing to participate in the Blood Fighting Pit?
