NOVPUB"Kill!"
Just one simple word.
Accompanied by Xiao Yi standing proudly, he pointed a finger forward.
However...
The world was calm and still.
The crowd burst into laughter, "Is this the deadly move you spoke of? Hahaha, you're killing me with laughter!"
"Idiot, it doesn't matter if it's one finger or hundreds, there's no way you can..."
Amidst their mockery.
Suddenly...
When they were about a hundred meters from the Death Colosseum, the two giant iron men standing on either side of the Colosseum's gates simultaneously opened their eyes, which were as red as rubies, radiating cold sharpness. With a clang, the two iron giants stepped forward amidst the booming, heavy sounds.
Both iron giants swung their black iron swords at the same time, moving towards the more than a hundred strong men.
"What the hell is this?"
"Damn it, what a terrifying power..."
"Damn it, these are puppets comparable to the Human Venerate Realm... What's going on? Why are they attacking us?"
One after another, the strong men looked on in despair as the two iron giants cut into their ranks.
Black iron swords.
In the hands of the iron giants, they seemed as light as feathers. With every swing, there was a wooshing sound of tearing through the air. The sword's edge ripped through the void, and amidst the deafening roars, the shining black sword light suddenly burst forth.
Like a black iron torrent.
Wherever it passed...
The bodies of the strong men were shattered to pieces, massacred.
These two entities were nothing but combat puppets.
Killing machines!
The several hundred men who had attacked Xiao Yi all fell within seconds, dropping dead under the slash of those black iron swords.
Clang, clang, clang!
After cutting down the several hundred men, the iron giants slowly returned to their places in front of the Death Colosseum.
Thud!
Thud!
With their bloodstained iron swords planted in the ground, they rested their hands on them.
And closed their glowing red eyes once more.
Gulp!
Everyone inhaled sharply, staring at Xiao Yi in disbelief, "What the hell is going on? Why did these two iron giants suddenly attack us?"
"Could it be because we got too close to the Colosseum?"
"Impossible, Xiao Yi is even closer to the Colosseum than we are..."
For a moment.
All eyes turned to Hu Junyi, "Hu Junyi, you owe us an explanation!"
"You're right, if you hadn't prodded us to take action against Xiao Yi, we would not have ended up like this..."
Facing everyone's accusations, Hu Junyi turned ashen.
His eyes bloodshot, it was indeed Hu Junyi who had incited the few hundred people to move against Xiao Yi. As it turned out, Xiao Yi remained unscathed while those who acted against him were slaughtered by the two iron giants. The normally unstoppable Hu Junyi was eating humble pie for the third time because of Xiao Yi.
Phew!
Hu Junyi could not help but exhale a long breath of foul air. His eyes darting, he recalled everything that had just happened and fixed a cold stare on Xiao Yi, "Xiao Yi, did you know beforehand that these two iron men would attack if anyone made a move outside the Death Colosseum?"
Xiao Yi shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "I've warned you all along not to take action against me, otherwise you wouldn't even know how you died. But you refused to believe my words and went to your deaths for nothing, what can I do about that?"
While speaking.
Xiao Yi stepped aside, exposing the stele to everyone's sight.
"..."
Seeing the prohibition order on the stele, everyone's faces turned pale.
The stele clearly displayed the prohibition order.
No private fighting was permitted inside or outside the Death Colosseum.
Otherwise, the enforcers would deliver severe punishment!
"You..."
Looking at Xiao Yi's innocent expression and light smile.
Hu Junyi was so angry he could barely contain himself, his face dark enough to drip with water, "Good, very good, a fine Xiao Yi... If I don't kill you, I swear I'm not human!"
Ye Ling and the others looked equally ugly.
Who could have thought that Xiao Yi would actually block the Stele?
If Xiao Yi hadn't deliberately blocked the Stele, would they have taken action after seeing the prohibition order?
From beginning to end...
This was a trap dug by Xiao Yi!
And yet they did not learn from the lessons of the previous two challenges, obediently jumping in themselves, falling for Xiao Yi's scheme, and sending hundreds of lives to their deaths.
"What a vicious Xiao Yi..."
"This man is truly too cunning; his words must not be trusted..." 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
The gaze everyone directed at Xiao Yi was filled not only with furious resentment but even more with deep wariness.
Ever since entering Yunmeng Marsh.
All along the way, Xiao Yi had not made a move, yet the result was that he effortlessly eliminated more than a thousand enemies from Galaxy Valley, followed by successive ambushes on almost a thousand strong fighters seeking his life. Among these were talents from the Nine Nirvana Rebirth Realm like Su Can and Su Lan, and gifted warriors from various powers.
After all...
The ones chosen to be sent to Yunmeng Marsh were indeed the elite of various forces.
At the same time.
Outside Yunmeng Marsh.
Elder Tianku burst into hearty laughter, his mocking gaze sweeping over everyone as he said with a smile, "Interesting, truly interesting! So these are the elite of the Nantian Dynasty? That's all there is to it? They've been played like a fiddle by just one person, Xiao Yi!"
"Hmph!"
Nantian Lie's eyes twitched, his face terrible to behold.
Yang Dingtian's face was black as coal; his Nantian holy land had also lost a dozen lives to Xiao Yi's scheme.
Su Xinghe, however, breathed a sigh of relief.
At least, it wasn't just his Galaxy Valley suffering!
Other forces' elites from the Longevity Secret Realm also wore hateful expressions, wishing to tear Xiao Yi into a thousand pieces, "Xiao Yi... This little bastard, if the barriers of Yunmeng Marsh are lifted later, I'm definitely taking his life!"
"Rest assured, he won't live that long!"
"If he comes out alive, even if it means offending Elder Tianku, I shall kill him myself!"
One formidable figure after another spoke with venomous fury.
This made Little Lin, who was standing nearby, tremble, looking nervously around and almost on the verge of tears, "Boss, boss, please be more careful! We already have enough enemies as it is. If this goes on, I'm afraid I'll be swallowed alive before you return..."
Despite saying this.
But as Little Lin watched Xiao Yi pit everyone against each other, his eyes were filled with excitement and pride.
Inside Yunmeng Marsh.
Standing before the Death Colosseum.
Everyone gazed at the Stele, which, in addition to the prohibition order, had rules regarding the Death Colosseum.
Those who enter the Death Colosseum will be divided into different teams of a hundred people each.
Each time, two teams will enter the central arena of the Death Colosseum, and the competition will be a capture-the-flag event. The team that seizes the opponent's flag while protecting their own, and brings it back to their side, will be victorious and pass through this challenge of the Colosseum.
If they fail, they will be eliminated.
Looking at the rules on the Stele.
Excitement and elation appeared on everyone's faces, "Hahaha, a hundred people to a team? I like this kind of mode!"
"Tsk tsk, some people are afraid they won't even be able to form a team!"
For a moment.
The crowd's mocking and sneering gaze fell on Xiao Yi and Yue Shanchuan.
Hu Junyi laughed coldly, arms crossed over his chest, smug on his face, "Xiao Yi, you can kneel and beg me. Maybe I'll take pity on you and let you join our team!"
"Or beg me! As long as you crawl through my legs, I'll let you join our team..."
"Hahaha, clean my shoes, and we can squeeze out a spot for you!"
The crowd chimed in.
Yue Shanchuan's face was grim as he turned to Xiao Yi, "Xiao Yi, what should we do?"
There were only two of them, not nearly enough to form a team!
Moreover...
Given their relationship with everyone else, even if they managed to form a team, they would have to guard against the opposition and even their own teammates.
Facing the mocking glares of the crowd and Yue Shanchuan's anxious inquiry, Xiao Yi's lips curved up slightly, confident as he smiled, "Don't worry, I have a plan!"
