Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 396
Chapter 396 A Bloody Duel
The moment the princess appeared, the entire arena was completely boiling. Unfortunately, the princess wore a light veil to cover her face. However, her long golden hair, exquisite figure, and bright blue eyes made people go crazy.
“Hai’er, Hai’er …”
A unified slogan sounded throughout the arena. The daughter of the sea was also a Persian princess. Her voice was loud and incomparably loud.
Following that, another group of people appeared. It was the Great Prince of Diya. He brought seven followers and sat in the seats he had prepared.
Beside Hai Wuya were a few Persian ministers, and beside the princess were only a few palace maids, sitting quietly at the side.
“Uncle Hai, remember the agreement between us. If we win the duel, the princess will marry into our Diya royal family!”
Diahelen’s eyes continued to shoot at Hai’er, unable to conceal the obscene light in his heart. Hai’er revealed a trace of disdain as she turned her head to look at the arena.
‘”Royal Nephew Diya, since we have a word ahead of us, of course we will follow the agreement. We have twenty gladiators. As long as you can win, I will naturally agree!”
Hai Wuya smiled. In terms of gladiators, whoever was as powerful as the Persian royal family, Hai Wuya was very confident.
Not everyone could become a gladiator, and their strength could not be higher than the Immortal Martial Stage. If such a gladiator had appeared, it would have been recruited long ago.
The arena was oval-shaped. There were two entrances on both sides. They were the entrances for gladiators from both sides to enter the arena. The entrances were blocked by iron bars to prevent gladiators from rushing out of the arena.
Around the arena, countless soldiers in armor stood motionlessly with spears in their hands, forming a circle to prevent anyone from assassinating the emperor.
The one who presided over this duel was an old man. As a famous guest of the Persian royal family, he naturally had the qualifications to do so. He glanced at the time and found that it was almost time for the duel.
“I now declare that the duel has begun!”
As the old man’s voice fell, the entire arena instantly became incomparably quiet, quietly waiting for the arrival of the gladiators.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The iron bars of the two passageways slowly rose, and countless gazes gathered at the exit.
“Roar!”
A furious roar like a wild beast appeared. It was from the Persian royal family’s exit that a burly man appeared. The muscles on his body were like pieces of steel, tightly wrapping around him.
An incomparably dense aura of slaughter filled the entire arena, and a deep roar came from his mouth.
At this moment, a man walked out from the other side of the exit. He was no weaker than a Persian royal gladiator. His muscles were made of steel. His fists struck his body with a thud, like metal striking against metal.
Hai Wuya’s eyes narrowed, as if he had miscalculated. He was looking at the cunning smile of the Great Prince of Diya and felt that this was a trap. He was actually plotted by a junior.
Especially Hai’er, when she saw the gladiators from the Diya royal family, a trace of loneliness appeared in her eyes, as if she had seen something.
The two gladiators walked towards the center of the arena. The entire arena was boiling again. Countless people waved their sleeves and shouted. A deafening sound could be heard from here. Even from miles away, it could be heard clearly.
Ye Feng was now quiet. Now, he was the only one left in the basement. He could refine the Ghost Eye peacefully. He was suddenly awakened by this shout. His divine sense was emitted bit by bit, and he could sense the scene of the arena.
“What a strong physical body, no weaker than his Nine Transformations of the Gods and Devils!”
Seeing the gladiator from the Diya royal family, Ye Feng was secretly shocked.
As for the Persian royal gladiators, Ye Feng had long experienced them. Although their physical bodies were powerful, they were still far inferior to the gladiators of the Diya royal family in front of him.
However, Ye Feng soon discovered some clues. It seemed that the body of the Diya Royal Gladiator had been modified by someone. A strong medicinal power came from within his body. It was not born to cultivate, but was made from countless spiritual medicines.
Both sides stood still. From their gazes, they could see a violent killing intent. They both wanted to kill each other with one punch.
“Begin!”
As the old man waved his flag, the Persian royal family gladiator charged forward. A terrifying killing aura filled the entire arena.
The Dia Royal Gladiator actually ignored him and stood there with a smile on his face.
The moment the Persian Gladiator touched the Diya Gladiator, the scene changed dramatically.
“Bang!”
The Persian royal gladiator struck the Diya royal gladiator with one punch. A heaven-shaking sound rang out, and a burst of intense dust blew up, blinding everyone’s eyes. No one could see what was happening, only the Persian royal gladiator struck the opponent with one punch.
The moment the dust fell, the scene on the arena was restored. The Dia Royal Gladiator was still standing where he was, motionless. The Persian Royal Gladiator’s fist also stopped on the opponent’s chest and did not send anyone flying.
“Too weak!”
A beast-like sound came from the mouth of the Diya Royal Gladiator. He reached out his left hand and grabbed the Persian Royal Gladiator’s right hand. He actually clenched his fist.
“You should also take a punch from me!”
Like a bolt of lightning, it appeared from the right hand of the Diya Royal Gladiator and struck the Persian Royal Gladiator’s chest fiercely.
“Kacha!”
A clear sound of bones breaking appeared. Gladiators relied on melee battles to increase their enjoyment. It was different from ordinary Heavenly Martial Stage battles.
They didn’t have powerful martial skills, and even gladiators weren’t allowed to cultivate martial skills. Even if they did, they weren’t allowed to use them. Once they used a martial skill, it would be considered a violation of the rules. This was the rules of the arena.
This looked even more exciting, because the scene of blood flying everywhere from fists to flesh could stimulate everyone’s nerves and passion for the beast desire in the bottom of their hearts. Humans had a natural stimulation for blood.
“Hu!”
The Persian royal gladiator flew up, drew an arc in the air, and fiercely fell to the ground.
The scene was strangely silent. One move, one punch. This did not seem logical. At the very least, they would have to fight for dozens of rounds. They would be knocked unconscious by a single punch.
“Roar! Roar! Roar!”
This time, it was Dia’s turn for the royal gladiator to let out an angry roar, his hands hammering his chest, sending out a metallic collision.
“Uncle Hai, what do you think of our Diya Royal Gladiators? If Uncle Hai likes them, I can give them to the Persian Royal Family!”
First Prince Dia drank a mouthful of tea and said unhurriedly.
“I still have many gladiators. The outcome is still undecided. Let’s continue watching!”
Although Hai Wuya tried his best to conceal himself, it was undeniable that this gladiator from the Diya Imperial Family had exceeded his imagination. He was simply a human-shaped machine that had reached the limits of humanity. Perhaps even the Immortal Martial Realm would not be able to withstand a single punch from him.
Very quickly, the second gladiator appeared. At the moment he appeared, he looked at his companion lying in the distance. The eyes of the second Persian royal gladiator flashed with a dense glint.
The Persian royal gladiator had already rushed out before the old man gave the order to start, and it was also a simple punch to defeat his opponent.
The same situation, the same moves, the same ending, everything seemed to be replicated.
The first time was a coincidence. The second time was nothing. Could it be a coincidence? Of course not. There was only one possibility. The Diya royal family’s gladiators were extremely powerful.
In less than a few breaths of time, the second gladiator was unconscious. His bones were broken and he was lying not far away.
The iron fence rose again, and the third gladiator appeared. This time, his gaze revealed not only a dense expression, but also a trace of fear.
Gladiators were also human beings. As long as they were human, they would have fear in their hearts. Although they longed for freedom, it did not mean that they were not afraid of death.
There was no retreat, victory over his opponent, freedom, viscount, and the path to the pinnacle of life, as long as he defeated the gladiator in front of him.
Therefore, even in the face of death, they were not afraid. They were only one step away from success. Anyone who could not escape would choose to take a step forward.
Perhaps this step would lead to a grand dao or an endless abyss.
When the third gladiator appeared, Hai’er’s gaze became calm because she had made a decision that even she herself found inconceivable. If she really lost, she would rather commit suicide than marry Dia’s eldest prince.
The moment this thought appeared, Hai’er was relieved.
After defeating two consecutive gladiators, the Dia Royal Family gladiator did not move at all and remained standing on the spot.
The two of them quickly drew closer. The strength of the third gladiator seemed to be much higher. With a whistling sound, his fist let out waves of air-piercing sounds. His strength was stronger than the two of them in front of him.
Facing the furious punch, the Dia Royal Gladiator did not seem to have any intention of moving. He remained indifferent, like a wooden stake, allowing the opponent to hit him.
“Boom!”
No one knew if the same situation would continue to be replicated. There were people praying for blessings, shouting, angry, and roaring at the scene.
As a Persian, of course, they did not want the princess to marry Diya, because the two countries were incompatible with each other. These people were not harmonious. If the princess married, it would be very painful.
When the dust fell, it was the same scene. From beginning to end, it was as if he was doing something over and over again.
“Kacha!”
The Diya Royal Gladiator had no mercy. This punch was not aimed at the Persian royal family’s chest, but at their head.
All sorts of red and white objects flew in the air, blasting apart the Persian royal gladiators with one punch. He revealed a cruel smile and licked the red and white objects on his fists. This Diya gladiator was like a devil.
“Uncle Hai, I’m really sorry. The gladiators I trained are cruel. They must be stimulated by fresh blood. I’m willing to compensate for killing Persian gladiators!”
The Great Prince of Diya revealed a faint smile as he tried to justify the murder of his own gladiator.
Hai Wuya was extremely aggrieved. He was at the Divine Martial Realm, yet he was actually humiliated by a Heavenly Martial Realm ant time and time again. If it weren’t for the seven followers behind him, Hai Wuya wouldn’t have hesitated to kill First Prince Diya.
This thought was just a thought. If he really killed the Great Prince of Diya, the two countries would probably not be far from the war.
The iron fence rose again and the fourth gladiator appeared.
