Chapter 790: Chapter 619: Cannibalism!_2
The audience went wild.
But it was just five minutes later.
"Who else wants some?"
Two warriors lay on the ground, one dead, another seriously injured.
Long Yi stood his ground and roared loudly.
"Who else wants some?"
The audience roared along with him.
Yes, today’s match was immensely satisfying! At the start, Long Yi’s battle with Iron Fist might have been considered evenly matched, but now, facing these two opponents, he was simply toying with them! Long Yi struck with the force of thunder, leaving the pair utterly powerless to retaliate!
In fact, Long Yi had not intended to be lethal. But when one of them feigned surrender in an attempt to launch a sneak attack, could such a person be spared? A punch filled with Fighting Aura directly exploded the man, ending the battle.
The audience was extremely excited; they loved brutality, they loved fervor, and they also loved the occasional display of compassion amidst the brutal fervor. Of course, they loved even more the thunderous retribution upon being provoked!
Anyway, people found Long Yi pleasing to the eye no matter how they looked at him!
This was the charisma of a star!
Lagera exclaimed.
"What’s the matter, boss, are you scared?"
Long Yi spoke again.
"Me? Scared? Hahahahaha!" Lagera’s large head appeared again, but now his expression was extremely ferocious!
"Long Yi, oh Long Yi, you’ve forced my hand! I now announce that all the contestants who were originally scheduled to compete before the main event will now be your enemies! Anyone who can deliver the fatal blow to Long Yi will be directly promoted to my seeded contestant and will participate in the king of my Arena competition!"
Lagera roared.
"And what if I win?" Long Yi retorted.
"Then that seeded contestant’s spot is yours!" Lagera shouted.
That was precisely what Long Yi had been waiting for.
To compete in the four grand arenas, Long Yi had to become the champion of this Arena. However, as a newcomer, he didn’t participate long enough, nor did he have enough victories, so by the rules, he wasn’t allowed to compete in the grand arena tournament. But Lagera believed that a talent like Long Yi shouldn’t waste away on such trivial stages, so he was essentially offering Long Yi a shortcut.
If Long Yi could defeat them, he would naturally be able to smoothly compete for the title of the king of the Arena. But if Long Yi failed, it would only mean that his strength was meager, and there was no need for remorse.
However, Long Yi was very grateful to Lagera. As for the enemies, what difference did a few more or fewer make?
Long Yi had a total of sixteen enemies. Although it seemed like a large number, they were not united because the position of a seeded contestant in the king of the Arena competition was too precious—a prize money couldn’t buy. So, if there was a chance to land a fatal blow on him, they were sure to turn on each other.
And in fact, they turned on each other sooner than he had expected.
Because it was clear that there were conflicts among them, the plan to team up against Long Yi soon split into three groups. Only ten surrounded Long Yi, while the other six went their separate ways to fight.
Long Yi was best at group battles. He found them less demanding than one-on-one fights, as groups were definitely unable to perform to their full potential due to a variety of reasons.
It was either because of the large number group making him complacent or the fear that he might hinder his teammates. In any case, Long Yi actually preferred team battles.
As the battle began, Long Yi charged towards the enemy like a heavy battle tank, taking weighty steps.
The commentator on the scene suddenly laughed and asked the audience, "How long do you think it will take for Long Yi to take down the first enemy? Let me see, the current time is nine seconds..."
"Boom!"
"Ahh!"
An explosion followed by a scream, someone actually flew high up and fell onto the audience seats. An unfortunate spectator was crushed underneath, immediately losing consciousness, and as a result, the entire stands erupted.
On-site medics descended from the sky, and both the competitor and the unfortunate audience member were carried away. Surrounding spectators looked enviously at the pool of blood on the seat. According to the Arena’s regulations, any spectators injured while watching a match would receive top medical care from The Divine Auffa Empire. In addition, the Stellar Realm Arena would pay them a hefty compensation; furthermore, you would obtain the permanent right to free priority viewing of the matches for the seat you were injured in.
Everyone knew that with the power of The Divine Auffa Empire, even if one were smashed to death, as long as they were not too far gone, they could generally be brought back. And the feeling of watching matches for free with a hefty compensation was just exhilarating!
However, at this moment, more people were focused on the match. In just ten seconds, Long Yi had taken down the first person, a speed that could be described as godly. With just one punch, Long Yi had used his compressed Fighting Aura of flames to blast the opponent away.
Then the second person! Thirty-five seconds!
The third person! Forty seconds!
The fourth person! One minute eleven seconds!
The fifth person! Two minutes!
Long Yi was like cutting down wheat, with each lift of his hand, a person would fall, and the heavy Crystal Stone armor seemed no impediment at all!
The opponents on the platform facing Long Yi were almost in tears. As star competitors of the Arena, they in fact no longer needed to take part in life-or-death battles. Being star competitors, they were very familiar with their opponents, and even though they were doing their utmost to overcome them, they rarely had that desperate desire for victory anymore. And without desire, their strength naturally waned.
Now facing Long Yi’s frenzied onslaught, these people all appeared timid. On the one hand, Long Yi was too strong, and on the other, they had no confidence in defeating Long Yi whatsoever!
The battle had only just passed the half-hour mark, and there was no longer anyone standing in front of Long Yi.
Long Yi once again raised his fist high.
"Who else is there! Who else!"
"Give me an enemy! Give me an enemy!"
The audience didn’t need Long Yi to speak; they were all in sync.
"No! You can forget about fighting any more battles today! I absolutely won’t allow you to ruin my championship night! Not at all! You may leave now! If you don’t leave, the continuing matches will absolutely not proceed!"
Lagera’s Big Head appeared, bellowing.
"Then, what about my seed contestant spot?" Long Yi asked.
Lagera’s Big Head immediately revealed anger and difficulty.
"The spot! The spot! The spot!" The audience started to jeer again.
"Listen, this is what the audience wants," Long Yi smiled.
"Yes, it’s for the audience! You have your seed contestant spot!" (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you are welcome to vote with recommendation tickets and monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
