The small lights in the passageway leading to the arena were lit brightly. It was clearly the path leading to a blood-stained arena, but it gave everyone an illusion of a path leading to a glorious place.
In the midst of light and heavy footsteps gradually coming near, Yang QiQi led her three companions into the arena and went straight to sub-arena No. 2. There, Bai Xue was already standing with her five Guardian Beasts, looking at their side with scrutiny.
Yang QiQi smiled at her and ascended the stairs in light steps.
The current Yang QiQi was naturally graceful. She had a beautiful countenance that was seemingly sculpted by heaven with extra care. At this time, her footsteps were as nimble as the moving clouds and flowing water. The short skirt of Han City team’s uniform fluttered akin to waves as she walked and the snow white slender legs under the skirt looked even more attractive. Further up, the thin waist and the bulge at her chest were as straight as a lotus in a pond; they weren’t fully developed so they looked a bit immature but added an air of tenderness. That exquisite face was beyond any criticism, perfect to the extent that all females would go crazy with envy. Her smooth black hair was tied up high in a ponytail. It swayed from left to right as she walked briskly.
Three young male beastmen walked behind her: the first one had long and narrow eyes, an aquiline nose, and thin lips. Those features should have appeared mean and dislikable when put together, but unexpectedly, they formed an unusually handsome and bright face. The other youth beside him looked to be about 17 or 18 years old, with sword-like eyebrows and peach blossom eyes, a droopy nose, and thin yet firm lips. When he smiled, he looked wicked, but when he kept a straight face, he looked incredibly attractive. At the very end of the team was 'tiger head and tiger brain' brown-haired teenager of 14 or 15 years. Just by taking a look at him, anybody could tell that he was a cheerful and outgoing child.
A five-person team was the minimum structure of the competition, but Yang QiQi did not accept new male beastmen even though two of her Guardian Beasts couldn’t take part in the competition due to their strengths being above the threshold. Participating with only three Guardian Beasts… Was she too arrogant or too ignorant?
Bai Xue swept her eyes over Yang QiQi and then at the noisy audience, snorting disdainfully.
“Warning: Creating disturbances are strictly prohibited in the arena! Warning: Creating disturbances are strictly prohibited in the arena! If the turmoil continues, the contingency plan for emergencies will be activated! If the turmoil continues, the contingency plan for emergencies will be activated!” The mechanical voice warned three times again.
After the voices quietened down, it sounded again: “The fifth match of arena No. 2 is about to begin. No. 111, Female Warrior Bai Xue from HaiLan City will fight against No. 156, Female Warrior Yang QiQi from Han City. As soon as the green light turns on and a ‘beep’ is heard, the match will start. Beep~”
Although Yang QiQi’s team was small, Ling Yue and the others had complete faith in Yang QiQi’s strength. When the beep sounded, none of the males stayed back to guard Yang QiQi; all of them rushed to the other side.
Bai Xue had gold attribute, so as soon as she began attacking, she shot numerous nails towards Yang QiQi.
In the arena, ivy vines rose suddenly and with some muffled sounds, the nails were knocked away neatly which immediately withdrew afterward.
*Bang* Xiang BuChen, the fastest amongst the three, had already reached the male beastman who had rushed towards him. With something akin to seeing an illusion of a leg flashing, the other party was kicked in the chest before he could capture and process the trajectory of the fierce kick. Fortunately, this male was awfully tall and sturdy. He just stepped back a few times with an indistinct groan without any serious injury.
He was Mao Ju, the captain of Bai Xue’s team. His beast form was that of a giant ape so even if he was strong and fleshy, his movements were not slow.
Dusting off the footprint on his chest, he licked his lips and stared at Xiang BuChen with interest: “This is a martial art technique, isn’t it?! It’s fascinating, do it again.”
Xiang BuChen smiled wickedly. Dust rose behind his feet as he used ‘Shadowless Legs’ again and disappeared from his place, dashing straight at Mao Ju like smoke.
The audience only heard a series of muffled sounds as Mao Ju was forced to retreat with a shocked and tormented expression by a black shadow. As if they had planned it before, everyone held their breath in unison. A majority of them were seeing a fight using any martial art technique for the first time.
So, this was one of those so-called martial art techniques?!
Tu Jin, who was behind him, was fighting against two male beastmen. At the age of 14-15 years, his body was still thin, yet he used ‘Subduing Dragon Palm’ quite strongly and domineeringly. The two male beastmen would have never imagined before that they would meet such an opponent one day: Although they fought according to their past combat experiences, the other party simply avoided fighting with them hand-to-hand. As a result, they couldn’t even use their physical strength to block their sole opponent’s martial art skills. They didn’t even know how his tricks worked, whenever they thought they had slowed him down and could finally hit him, they were beaten before they could realize.
As for Ling Yue, who was behind him, he was even calmer and more composed when fighting another two male beastmen.
In order to let the audience see the casual smile on his face at this time, even a close-up of his face was shown. Then, to show his wonderful combat method, the focus was moved away.
