Chapter 3675: The Extreme Martial Arena
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As soon as Qi Yu’s voice fell, everyone fell silent. The tense atmosphere made them nervous as they looked at Duan Ling Tian and Qi Yu.
“I have a death wish?” Duan Ling Tian looked at Qi Yu with a deep gaze as he asked, “What? Do you think you can kill me?”
Qi Yu scoffed. He said derisively, “Duan Ling Tian, just because you climbed to the ninth step due to luck, don’t tell me you really think you’re that great? Our rankings aren’t an accurate representation of our strength. Oh, right, you’re just a newcomer so you’re unaware of this.”
In Qi Yu’s opinion, since Duan Ling Tian spent such a long time on the seventh step of the Heavenly Stairs, it was definitely impossible for Duan Ling Tian to pass the eighth step. He was convinced Duan Ling Tian had only managed to do so because his opponent had gone easy on him. Although it was rare, it was not unprecedented. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian had also just said he was defeated with just a move after advancing to the ninth step. Duan Ling Tian was only on the ninth step for a long time because he was chatting with his opponent. For all these reasons, despite Duan Ling Tian’s superior ranking, he did not think Duan Ling Tian was stronger than him. He attributed Duan Ling Tian’s ranking to his luck.
“Luck?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow. “Alright, let’s fight then.”
“Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Qi Yu sneered. “Very well. Do you dare to fight me at the Extreme Martial Arena?”
The Extreme Martial Arena was where members of the Hidden Fog Sect carried out challenges. During a fight in the arena, one could choose to admit defeat. However, if one did not admit defeat or could admit defeat in time, there would be no consequences if one was killed.
For sparring sessions, members of the Hidden Fog Sect would go to the Martial Square that was located below the Extreme Martial Arena.
“Extreme Martial Arena? Senior Brother Qi Yu wants to fight Duan Ling Tian in the Extreme Martial Arena?”
“Heavens! If one can’t surrender in time, one’s opponent can kill one without any repercussions!”
“Is their enmity that deep? It seems like Senior Qi Yu plans to kill Duan Ling Tian in the arena before Duan Ling Tian can surrender!”
The inner disciples were shocked. Some of them who loved to watch a show were filled with excitement and anticipation.
At this moment, Tang Wu Yan said through Voice Transmission, “Duan Ling Tian, don’t be impulsive. If you fight in the Extreme Martial Arena, you’ll die if you can’t surrender in time. Qi Yu won’t be punished for killing you as well!”
“I know. I’ve already learned about the Extreme Martial Arena from the Inner Disciple Manual,” Duan Ling Tian calmly said with a smile on his face.
Qi Yu was even more jealous when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words to Tang Wu Yan. He could naturally guess Tang Wu Yan had sent Duan Ling Tian a Voice Transmission to dissuade Duan Ling Tian from fighting in the Extreme Martial Arena. With this, he said sarcastically, “Duan Ling Tian, the genius from Skywind City, do you dare to accept my challenge?”
At this moment, an aged voice rang in Duan Ling Tian’s ears.
“Duan Ling Tian, don’t be rash. Don’t agree to it if you’re not confident about winning.”
Duan Ling Tian looked up in surprise. The Voice Transmission was from the inner elder guarding the Heavenly Stairs.
“Elder, don’t worry. I never do things I have no confidence in,” Duan Ling Tian replied through Voice Transmission. Then, he looked at Qi Yu and said, “Lead the way.”
Qi Yu was briefly stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s response. When he regained his senses, he sneered and proceeded to lead Duan Ling Tian to the Extreme Martial Arena.
The crowd erupted in an uproar immediately.
“Duan Ling Tian actually accepted the challenge!”
“I really don’t understand why he accepted the challenge. Since Senior Brother Qi Yu proposed fighting in the Extreme Martial Arena, clearly, he’s very confident about winning.”
“An intermediate god actually dared to accept the challenge from an advanced god?”
Tang Wu Yan frowned when she saw Duan Ling Tian disregarding her advice. Then, she hurried over to catch up with Duan Ling Tian. When she caught up with him, she said through Voice Transmission again, “Duan Ling Tian, remember to surrender if you feel like you can’t hold on anymore. As long as you surrender, Qi Yu won’t be able to kill you without facing punishment! The elders on duty at the arena will also protect you.”
Duan Ling Tian was already aware of these things. Nevertheless, he still thanked Tang Wu Yan.
Except for those who were still in the Heavenly Stairs and the inner elder guarding it, everyone went to the Extreme Martial Arena excitedly as well.
In fact, the inner elder guarding the Heavenly Stairs would have gone to the Extreme Martial Arena as well if he did not have to guard the Heavenly Stairs.
At this time, an inner disciple who had just come out from the Heavenly Stairs looked around in confusion. “Where’s everyone?”
No one was around except for the inner elder on duty.
After learning about what had happened, the inner disciple hurried to the Extreme Martial Arena as well.
‘I can’t believe Senior Brother Qi Yu and Duan Ling Tian are going to fight in the Extreme Martial Arena! I can’t miss this exciting show!’
Along the way, the inner disciple would recount what happened to others he encountered. With this, even more people made their way to the Extreme Martial Arena.
At the same time, the inner elder guarding the Heavenly Stairs sent a message to an elder whom he had a good relationship with.
“Elder Peng, if I’m not mistaken, you’re on duty at the Extreme Martial Arena now, right?”
The other party’s reply came quickly. “Yes. What’s the matter?”
The elder said, “Please update me about the outcome of Qi Yu and Duan Ling Tian’s fight at the Extreme Martial Arena. Duan Ling Tian is the disciple that Vice Sect Leader Murong recommended to join the sect. If he’s in danger, I hope you’ll help me remind him to surrender through Voice Transmission. He’s actually very polite. Moreover, he’s highly talented. He’ll definitely be of great help to the sect in the future.”
“What? Qi Yu and Duan Ling Tian are coming to fight in the Extreme Martial Arena? Never mind, they just arrived. Alright, don’t worry. I don’t such a genius to die so pointlessly as well.”
…
Elder Peng, who was on duty at the Extreme Martial Arena, saw Qi Yu and a group of people making their way over to the Extreme Martial Arena. Although he had never seen Duan Ling Tian before, he could guess the handsome purple-clad young man behind Qi Yu was Duan Ling Tian.
Above the Martial Square, there were 19 Extreme Martial Arenas. They were located between the inner and outer sect, and both inner and outer disciples could use them. Usually, the Martial Square would be lively while the arenas would be empty.
When Duan Ling Tian, Qi Yu, and the others arrived, there was already a crowd in the Martial Square. Needless to say, everyone was attracted by their sudden arrival.
“Why did so many people come?”
“How lively!”
“Hey, that’s Senior Brother Qi Yu, one of the ten strongest inner disciples who are gods!”
“He’s going to the Extreme Martial Arena!”
“Who’s he fighting?”
“Who’s that purple-clad young man behind him?”
The inner and outer disciples on the Martial Square were curious so they followed the others to the Extreme Martial Arena as well. Since they were unaware of what was going on, they began to ask the people who had come with Qi Yu and Duan Ling Tian.
“Senior, what happened? Who’s Senior Brother Qi Yu fighting in the Extreme Martial Arena?”
Everyone was shocked when they learned about what happened.
“He’s going to fight that newcomer, Duan Ling Tian? Isn’t Duan Ling Tian an intermediate god? How dare he agree to fight with Senior Qi Yu who’s an advanced god in the Extreme Martial Arena?”
“I’ve heard about him. Similar to Senior Brother Qi Yu, he had also managed to comprehend a triple Fused Profundity. However, Senior Brother Qi Yu’s cultivation base is one level higher than his. How can he be a match for Senior Brother Qi Yu?”
“I really don’t understand why he would accept the challenge when the odds are clearly against him.”
“Well, there’s no lack of geniuses who died due to a moment of rashness.”
Although everyone did not understand Duan Ling Tian’s decision, they were still excited to watch the battle. They looked at the purple figure pitifully as they shook their heads.
Qin Yu led Duan Ling Tian to the arena in the center. It was also the biggest one. It was like the moon while the 18 smaller arenas that surrounded it were like the stars.
After landing in the arena. Qi Yu turned to face Duan Ling Tian. He could not help but feel slightly worried when he saw how calm Duan Ling Tian was. Duan Ling Tian could have pretended to be calm when they were outside the Heavenly Stairs, but it would be impossible to pretend to be calm now that they were in the arena, right?
Qi Yu’s uneasiness continued to grow.. When he could no longer bear it, he extended his Divine Consciousness to probe Duan Ling Tian. In the next moment, his eyes widened as he exclaimed in shock, “H-he broke through and became an advanced god?!”
