“Lord Red Lion.”
As soon as the voice of the Red Lion Ghost King fell, Wutuba stepped to the center of the main hall of the dilapidated temple amidst the panicked voices of the refugees.
“According to your rules, as the defender of this challenge, Wutuba is qualified to set a rule for the competition.”
Wutuba grinned and looked at Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping felt his scalp tingle when he was looked at.
“Young master, this Red Lion Ghost King is one of the ten great evil ghosts in the legend of the Ghost Tribe. Wutuba should want to use his power to remove the black scale armor on your body.”
Gu Qingcheng, who had already stood beside Xu Taiping, softly reminded Xu Taiping at this time.
Xu Taiping silently nodded.
“Okay.”
At this time, the voice of the Ghost King Red Lion once again rang coldly above this blood-colored cage.
Hearing this, Wu Tuba immediately folded his arms and looked at Xu Taiping with his gaze, saying:
“I want to ask Lord Red Lion to set the rule that in this beast fighting competition, all the Ghost Fang disciples are not allowed to use the power of ghosts and gods, and all the refugees of Ningyuan Country are not allowed to use magic treasures and weapons.”
“This flesh and blood body must be used for the competition!”
Hearing this, the already flustered refugees suddenly burst into an uproar.
“This is not fair!”
“Yes, it’s not fair!”
Several refugees summoned up their courage and shouted.
To Xu Taiping’s surprise, the Ghost King Red Lion actually responded to the request of the refugees——
“You, Wu Tuba, are also not allowed to use the power of ghosts and gods and magic treasures and weapons, otherwise this rule will be invalid.”
Hearing this, Wu Tuba did not argue, but just raised the corners of his mouth, cupped his hands and bowed, saying:
“Wu Tuba, obeys the order.”
Judging from Wu Tuba’s expression at this moment, he didn’t seem to be surprised by the decision of the Ghost King Red Lion.
And when the group of refugees heard that Utu Ba was also not allowed to use the power of ghosts and gods and not allowed to use magic weapons and weapons like them, they all had expressions of joy on their faces.
Because the biggest gap between the cultivators of Ningyuan State and the ghost cultivators of Guifang lies in the power to control ghosts and various ghost soldiers. If they really want to compete in physical strength and martial arts skills, they actually have an advantage.
Just when Xu Taiping was a littlefeel uncertain and wondered why the Red Lion Ghost King would accept the request of the group of refugees, Gu Qingcheng seemed to see through his thoughts and transmitted a voice to explain to him:
Young master, this is not because the Red Lion Ghost King is merciful, but because these ghosts and gods of Guifang like our cultivators, must abide by a law of heaven.”
“What law?” Xu Taiping.
“All things have flaws, and when they reach the extreme, they will decline. When the sun reaches the middle, it will move, and when the moon is full, it will wane. The way of heaven has flaws, and if there is no flaw, it will surely be destroyed.”
Gu Qingcheng replied.
Upon hearing Gu Qingcheng’s answer, Xu Taiping’s heart trembled.
Because when he was in the Golden Scale Association, when Senior Dao Gui was helping him understand the saber domain, he had said exactly the same thing to him.
So, no matter how powerful the power of the ghosts and gods in Guifang it must not only be beneficial to the ghost cultivators who Cast the power to control ghosts. A way of life must be left for their opponents.”
Xu Taiping said with a sudden realization, murmuring.
He always felt that there seemed to be some deep meaning behind this coincidence, but for a while, he couldn’t completely figure it out.
“He Lianxiu, it’s still not too late to go back on your word.”
At this time, that Wu Tuba suddenly smiled and looked at Xu Taiping again.
Xu Taiping remained silent and still just stared at him quietly.
He didn’t know much about He Lianxiu, and choosing to remain silent at this time was naturally the most appropriate thing to do.
“Swish! ……”
Just at this moment, a blood-red long whip suddenly appeared out of thin air above the blood cage, binding a refugee and then threw him towards the center of the main hall of the dilapidated temple.
Then, only the voice of the Red Lion Ghost King was heard again——
“From now on, if there is no one who takes the initiative to challenge the arena, this king will choose the challenger.”
“The first match begins.”
Unlike the previous few voices, when the Red Lion Ghost King said this sentence, there was obviously a bit of excitement and jest in his tone.
“This Red Lion Ghost King seems to be very interested in the fight between others.”
Xu Taiping frowned and muttered.
“That’s right.”
Gu Qingcheng on the side nodded and said:
“My eldest brother once said that this Red Lion Ghost King had built a gladiatorial arena in Ghost Square during his lifetime, gathering all the experts in the entire Ghost Square and having them fight to the death all day long for entertainment.”
“It seems that all these Ghost Kings in Ghost Square were all crazy people during their lifetimes.”
Xu Taiping looked at Wutuba who was standing in the middle of the main hall, and his expression became very solemn.
According to the current situation, a battle between him and that Wutuba is already inevitable.
“Helian Su, although Lord Red Lion didn’t pick you this time, but next time, you won’t have such good luck.”
Wutuba didn’t even look at the refugee in front of him, and his gaze still directly looked at Xu Taiping, obviously not taking that refugee seriously.
“Boom!”
And just as Wutuba was shouting at Xu Taiping, the refugee who was dragged over by the Red Lion Ghost King felt that the opportunity had come, and without hesitation, he mobilized all his qi and true essence, and punched Wutuba.
“Shua!”
To the astonishment of everyone, at such a close distance and such a favorable opportunity, the fist swung by the refugee was still easily dodged by Wutuba with a sideways movement.
The refugee’s punch missed.
Almost at the same time as dodging the refugee, Wutuba’s palm knife, with a “whoosh” sound and the sound of breaking the wind, directly slashed at the refugee.
“Click!”
That refugee from Ningyuan Country actually also reacted, but the arm he raised was easily broken by Wutuba’s palm knife like two dead branches.
“Shua!”
In the harsh breaking wind sound, Wutuba’s palm knife cut from the refugee’s neck to the lower abdomen, slicing his body diagonally into two pieces.
The move was extremely cruel and ruthless.
However, in the eyes of Xu Taiping and the others, compared to the cruelty of the means, what surprised them even more was Wutuba’s strength of blood and physical body.
“Just now, Wutuba’s palm knife didn’t use a single point of true yuan power, relying entirely on the toughness of the physical body and the vigorous blood and qi. This is at least the physical body of a Martial Saint Realm, right?”
Zhai Mo transmitted his voice to everyone with the Azure Dragon Token with a look of horror on his face.
“With just a casual palm knife, he can have the strength of a Martial Saint Realm, which means that Wutuba’s true martial arts strength may still be above the Martial Saint Realm.”
Elder Zhang replied with a somewhat heavy tone.
“Young Master, let me and Brother Zhai Mo test that Wutuba for you later?”
Gongshu Nanxing proposed to Xu Taiping at this time.
“That’s right, Young Master. I and Nanxing can take the initiative to play, so as to avoid the Red Lion Ghost King choosing you in advance.”
Zhai Mo agreed.
“No.”
Xu Taiping flatly rejected the suggestions of the two.
This battle of trapped beasts is not an ordinary competition, and Wutuba is even less of an ordinary opponent. As long as the two have a slip, they will definitely lose their lives.
“I will go in the next round.”
He forcefully transmitted his voice to the crowd.
“But Young Master, you know nothing about this Wutuba. If you go on stage so rashly, I’m afraid there will be danger!”
Zhai Mo was very worried.
If it were a comparison of other things, it would be fine. But in a competition of physical strength, martial skills and blood qi zhen yuan power, I will never lose!
The reason why Xu Taiping spoke so forcefully was not because of conceit, but to prevent Nan Xing and the others from worrying.
And in fact, if he, who had the strongest blood qi zhen yuan power and the highest martial arts cultivation among the crowd, couldn’t win this competition, it would be no different from sending Nan Xing and the others to their deaths if they went on stage.
Regarding the discussion of the few people, Gu Qingcheng didn’t say a word from beginning to end and was just listening silently.
However, unlike Nan Xing and the others who had worried expressions on their faces, Gu Qingcheng had great confidence in Xu Taiping.
“Unless Wutuba’s qi refining cultivation breaks through to the Divine Refinement Realm and his martial arts cultivation breaks through to the Martial God Realm, otherwise, with the martial arts cultivation of Young Master Rust Lion, he will definitely not lose. After all, not everyone can cultivate a martial arts extreme intention.”
Looking at Xu Taiping who was walking past him, Gu Qingcheng muttered to himself in his heart.
“Red Lion Ghost King, I, Xiao Yu of Seven Sages Town, come to claim Wutuba’s life today!”
Just as Xu Taiping was about to take the stage, a sudden change occurred in the dilapidated temple. A tall and slender young man suddenly shouted, then leaped up from the crowd of refugees and landed in the center of the main hall first.
“Seven Virtues Town… Xiao Yu?”
Upon hearing this name, Xu Taiping and Gongshu Nanxing and the others behind him all had their faces change simultaneously.
“Young master… When we first entered Ningyuan Country, the shepherd boy we met in Seven Virtues Town… seemed to be called Xiao Yu, right?”
Gongshu Nanxing transmitted her voice to Xu Taiping in surprise.
