Chapter 472: I Miss Home
Jiang Yun sat cross-legged in the center of the platform, looking around.
Just now, outside, looking at the Beast Arena, it felt very grand. But now, actually walking in here, looking around again, I feel even smaller.
Then, Jiang Yun’s gaze moved upward, looking at the dark night sky, murmuring, "I wonder how Grandpa and Master are doing now!"
"I miss home!"
As the words fell, Jiang Yun slowly closed his eyes, and in front of him appeared the Mountain-Sea World, the One Hundred Thousand Mang Mountains, and the Seeking-Tao Sect.
Time slowly passed as Jiang Yun longed for home, until the eastern sky gradually brightened.
A noisy sound like a landslide or tsunami suddenly rang out, causing Jiang Yun to open his eyes from his contemplation.
The Beast Arena has eight hundred-foot-sized gates, which are now completely open. People from different tribes rushed in like a tide.
And everyone entering the Beast Arena, the first thing they see is the ten arenas in the middle of the field, and the first batch of arena champions on top of them.
The seventh arena where Jiang Yun was located attracted the attention of most people.
Because on the other nine platforms, Beast Tamers from different groups had already released their beasts, and various beasts were continuously roaming around the platforms, creating a lively scene.
Only Jiang Yun was alone, sitting cross-legged in the center of the platform, appearing very conspicuous, naturally attracting the attention and discussions of the crowd.
"Who is this unlucky guy?"
"I don’t know, but whoever he is, the first batch of platform masters are basically cannon fodder, most of them can’t even last through the first day."
"Well, you never know, this person’s attitude seems good, while the other platform masters summon their beasts to boost their confidence, he is alone, he must have some skills."
"Maybe he’s pretending to be calm on purpose, he might be scared out of his wits inside!"
Regardless of Jiang Yun’s true intention, he had already piqued the interest of many people in the Beast Arena before it had even started.
Apart from the cultivators entering from the eight gates, there were also clusters of rainbow lights appearing in the sky, entering the VIP box at the highest point of the Beast Arena.
Those who could enter the VIP box were naturally powerful groups.
They came here not only to participate in the Beast Arena, but also to see if they could find some good super beasts or skilled Beast Tamers.
After all, even in the smallest communities, there may be some geniuses born.
If they are interested in someone, they will try their best to recruit them and make them a member of their own community.
This is another reason why the Beast Arena attracts attention.
And after each tournament ends, some communities do get absorbed by larger ones, or even disappear inexplicably.
Because there are so many people coming to watch and participate in the tournament, even after half an hour has passed, the area around the eight main gates is still crowded with people.
However, there is no longer any rainbow light in the sky above, and the VIP box at the highest point is already full of people.
Furthermore, the people in four of the VIP boxes are all currently focusing their attention on Jiang Yun.
Inside the first VIP box, Mu Village Chief Mu Wanchun is there with his son Mu Congsheng, both coldly gazing at Jiang Yun on the seventh platform in the center of the arena.
Mu Congsheng grinned wickedly and said, "Dad, your plan is brilliant! Making Jiang Yun the first batch of champions, even if he’s really talented, he won’t last till the tenth day."
Mu Wanchun smiled slightly and said, "To be honest, I never saw him as a rival to our Mu village. Maybe we don’t even need to take action – someone else might kill him!"
Beast Arena allows injuries and deaths.
After all, beasts are not humans, they lack intelligence. Even the most formidable Beast Tamer can’t guarantee that their trained beasts will always obey.
Numerous beasts have died in previous tournaments, and many Beast Tamers have fallen as well.
"Even if he manages to survive on the stage, once they are eliminated, he and Xiao Yun’s group will disappear forever."
Mu Congsheng nodded repeatedly and asked, "Dad, what are our chances of making it to the top ten this time?"
"Excluding the Xia, Feng, Yu, and Song families, we should be able to secure one of the six remaining spots."
As Mu Wanchun’s voice trailed off, a cough was heard from outside the door.
The big gate opened, and a man walked in. It was the yellow-faced man who informed Jiang Yun and the others yesterday.
When Mu Wanchun saw the man, he greeted him with a big smile and said, "Ninth Lord, thank you so much this time. I will definitely come to thank you in person later."
The yellow-faced man still looked proud and said, "It’s just a small matter. I didn’t come for this."
Mu Wanchun smiled and said, "If Ninth Lord has anything to discuss, just send someone to pass the message. There’s no need for you to come in person."
"I’ve already given the notice. You must be ready to act by the eighth day at the latest, no delays until the tenth day!"
Mu Wanchun nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, we are prepared to act on the eighth day!"
The yellow-faced man continued, "Also, if you need to kill someone, don’t do it in Xia City. If something happens, I can’t protect you either!"
"We understand that, of course!"
"Alright, nothing else to discuss, I’m leaving!"
When the man with a yellow face tried to leave, Mu Wanchun quickly took out a small magic ring from his pocket and handed it to the man with a smile, saying, "Thank you for your help, Ninth Lord!"
The man with the yellow face nodded as he accepted the magic ring, then he left through the door.
After making sure the man was far away, Mu Wanchun’s smile disappeared, and Mu Congsheng, looking worried, said, "Dad, we’ve already spent eight million spiritual stones on this, right?"
Mu Wanchun’s expression turned a bit serious, but he reassured his son, "It’s okay. As long as you become the successful son-in-law of the Xia family, the cost of the spiritual stones will be worth it!"
"Although I’ve arranged everything, make sure to show your best performance when the time comes at the arena!"
…
In another private room, Yu Cangwu frowned as he watched Jiang Yun below and muttered, "This kid has such bad luck, being chosen as the first batch of challengers."
"No!" Yu Cangwu shook his head and said, "There’s always something fishy in the selection process, he must have offended someone!"
Thinking about this, Yu Cangwu’s frown turned into a smile, as he said, "Well, tough luck for you, but this also increases my chances."
…
At the third table staring at Jiang Yun’s private room, there was only one person – Master Feng.
At this moment, he gritted his teeth, his eyes shining fiercely as he glared at Jiang Yun menacingly, saying, "Retribution! Your becoming the first champion is payback for bullying me."
"Damn it, but I can’t let you die yet. If you die, I’ll have to be buried with you. It’s driving me crazy, driving me crazy!"
Master Feng really hated Jiang Yun to the core.
After leaving Jiang Yun, he consulted several doctors to examine his body, wanting to know what Jiang Yun had made him ingest.
However, to his surprise, all the doctors couldn’t find anything wrong and repeatedly said there was nothing amiss with his body.
He didn’t believe that Jiang Yun was just tricking him, so for over a month, he was constantly anxious, unable to focus on anything.
Now, he only wished for Jiang Yun to be eliminated quickly and then come to him safely.
…
Inside the fourth private room, there were five people – four standing and one sitting. The person sitting was a young man in white clothes, with a handsome face.
Between his eyebrows, there was a sense of arrogance, as if nothing could impress him.
Around his waist, he wore a red belt!
