Chapter 390: First Match – 10V10 - Part One
Ju Shoufen, Ma Moxi, and the girls stared at the immortal. Instead of answering his question, Ju Shoufen shouted, "Where is Fang Meirong!?"
Fang Yanxu sneered, "What happened to my daughter is none of your concern. If you want to see her again, try to survive my game. Back to my question, where is Mao Miaomiao!?"
"…"
No one answered as they had no idea when Miaomiao would return.
Seeing the nervous look on the women's faces, Fang Yanxu closed his eyes and sent his telepathic voice to a certain dragon.
'Shitty Dragon, where is Mao Miaomiao!?'
A loud breath, followed by a long sigh, echoed in Fang Yanxu's mind, 'He will get there in an hour. Start the game without him for now.'
'What takes him so long!?'
'I'm the one who's keeping him here. If you have a problem, come to my cave yourself! Of course, your cultivation base will be instantly suppressed to the 9th-stage, and I can't guarantee your safety!'
'Our bet requires Mao Miaomiao to participate in three of the deathmatches. I can't start the game without your disciple.'
'If you're so obstinate on killing Miaomiao that much, shut the fuck up and wait. You've been waiting for 30 days. Will you die if you wait for another hour?'
For some reason, Nero refused to send Miaomiao here early. Fang Yanxu gritted his teeth as he was frustrated that things didn't go according to his plan.
At first, Fang Yanxu thought of holding three fights, two group fights, and a one-on-one duel. All matches required Miaomiao to join, so the guy wouldn't be able to rest.
Unfortunately, without Miaomiao, Fang Yanxu had to change his game rules.
Nero snickered as he reminded Fang Yanxu about their agreements, 'Remember, all matches have to be fair and square. I don't want to see any stupid rule, like 1v10 or 2v5 matches!'
'I know. I won't shame myself in front of the immortals and several DaoTubers!'
Fang Yanxu snorted and glanced at the dark cloud and Tribulation Eyes in the sky. He was aware that some of them had a part-time job as a DaoTube Streamer, and today's event was probably being live-broadcasted right now.
An obvious bias treatment was impossible here, or his clan might punish him for being too unjust.
Fang Yanxu coughed and gazed at the crowd, pretending not to care about the absence of Miaomiao.
"First off, both sides have agreed that if Yuan Shaoqing's side wins, the city and its people will belong to the winner. But if Siren City's side wins, Yuan Shaoqing and his people will not be able to get in the radius of 100 kilometers near Siren City for five years, and Yuan Shaoqing will have to surrender a private plane to the winner! This is the last time I will ask you - Are you satisfied with this bet?"
Ju Shoufen shouted, "Yes!"
Yuan Shaoqing clicked his tongue and grumbled, "Yes!"
"Good. Now, I shall explain the game rules…"
Though everything went out of his initial plan, Fang Yanxu came up with a new set of rules for this event.
Fang Yanxu waved his hand and a one square kilometer arena emerged from the ground. The stage was two meters tall, which obstructed the view of the bystanders on the ground.
Many strong cultivators levitated right away while the weaker ones started bringing out their portable towers, stands, and tall chairs to spectate the game.
"We shall hold three types of matches, three group battles, three one-on-one duels, and one elimination gauntlet. The side that can get seven wins first is the victor!"
As soon as Fang Yanxu mentioned group battles, Yuan Shaoqing and his players smiled while Ju Shoufen and the girls frowned. As they had to win seven games, many representatives might have to fight more than once.
"We shall hold the group battle matches first. The first match will be a 10v10 battle. Both sides, pick your fighters!"
Yuan Shaoqing couldn't restrain himself. He burst into laughter as this event was in his favor - How could the weak women and cultivators from a small city be his match when all of his representatives were nascent soul cultivators?
Most importantly, the nascent soul realm fighters on Siren City's side couldn't possibly defeat their top experts seven times! They would have been exhausted or died first!
"Go! All of you! Prove it to me that you're useful, and I shall give good words to Yuan Hua and other dao gods!"
Ten nascent soul cultivators jumped up on the stage. Some of them laughed while the minority maintained their pokerface.
Fang Yanxu glanced at Yuan Shaoqing when the latter mentioned the dao gods and his sister's name. As an immortal, he was a lot weaker than the gods. Thus, he took notes while he delivered a mental message to his clansmen, calling for a backup unit from the higher realms to keep Yuan Shaoqing's backers in check.
Meanwhile, Ju Shoufen's group widened their eyes in shock. From the get-go, all fighters on their side were forced to fight.
"Wait, Your Excellency, if we use all our representatives in the first match, we won't have anybody else to fight in the next match!" Ju Shoufen protested as this rule didn't make sense.
Fang Yanxu sneered, "Both sides can send the same representatives to fight in the next matches. One fighter can fight in all 7 matches or 13 matches if they have to!"
"…"
The purpose of Fang Yanxu was clear. He wanted to exhaust and torment Siren City's people, who had fewer 7th-stage cultivators on their side.
Furthermore, Fang Yanxu hadn't revealed the next match's rules. It might be the same 10v10, and everyone might be forced to fight again.
Reluctantly, Ju Shoufen, Ma Moxi, and the other representatives from Siren City got up the stage.
Fang Yanxu turned to the Siren City fighters and scanned them with his Qi, comparing their strength with Yuan Shaoqing's men and checking if any 8th-stage cheaters mixed among the crowd.
"Hmm?"
As soon as Fang Yanxu's Qi touched a cat woman with white short hair and a rabbit girl, the former face's turned dark.
"Soul Eaters… So you two have devoured a soul!"
Fang Yanxu had the urge to arrest these two women and bring them to the trial at Samsara Court, but he was wary of their backers. After all, he had learned about Ju Shoufen and Mao Miaomiao's sponsors from Fang Meirong's texts.
"Tsk!"
Not wanting to risk his life by provoking Sun Crow, Tilted Hongjun, OG-Buddha, and many others, Fang Yanxu pretended that he didn't notice the souls of the divine beasts. Still, he would report this finding to Samsara later on.
For now, Fang Yanxu aimed to kill Miaomiao and his family by using Yuan Shaoqing's hands! Even if the dao gods wanted to find fault at him, he could direct their grudge to Yuan Hua and their colleagues instead!
In short, Yuan Shaoqing was Fang Yanxu's scapegoat!
The immortal proceeded to announce the rules of the first match.
"The first match is a group battle between 10 representatives of both sides. You may kill, cripple, you do ANYTHING to your opponents. The victor is decided when one side's participants step out of the stage, either by flying or dropping out of the platform. At least one person's foot must stay on the platform at all times!"
In short, both sides had to force all their opponents to get all their feet off the platform, one way or another.
However, Fang Yanxu's stressed words excited some of Yuan Shaoqing's fighters.
Jiao Chu was a tanned man in a steel helmet and a scaled armor. His black mustache and trimmed beard made him look older, but he was actually a 200-year-old man.
Despite being an elderly man, Jiao Chu's body and mind were that of a perverted middle-aged man. He ogled Wei Yuan, Mao Dandan, Zhao Yun, and Mao Xueyan as he was into demon women and beast women.
"Your Excellency, did you say, we can do ANYTHING, and I mean, EVERYTHING to our opponents?"
Jiao Chu's words implied something lecherous and heinous. He had intended to violate the girls on the stage right in front of all spectators.
Fang Yanxu read Jiao Chu's expression. He smirked, "ANYTHING, and I mean, ANYTHING GOES! Do your best and don't disappoint your people."
"HAHAHAHA!! Thank you for your confirmation, Your Excellency. I shall enjoy this fight!"
Jiao Chu glanced at the girls and turned his back on them. He cupped his fist and introduced himself to the people from Yuan Shaoqing's side.
"I'm Jiao Chu, the patriarch of the Fiery Spear Sect! I shall bring glory to the alliance, and bring you the beautiful sex slaves that we desire!"
The people from the spear sect cheered while the bystanders swallowed their saliva in excitement, hoping to see sexual actions on the platform. Some of them even rubbed their crotches as their brothers got excited as well.
Jiao Chu ignored his colleagues, who were also nascent soul realm cultivators. He brought out a heaven-grade spear, then he summoned his nascent soul and his dao avatar.
The dao avatar was similar to Ma Ping's knight horseman. However, Jiao Chu's version was a spear horseman, covered in flame.
Jiao Chu's dao avatar and his nascent soul merged, transforming into a fire elemental spirit in the shape of a spear horseman.
"I'll get rid of the unsightly orc and that sissy first! As for you girls, I'll be taking my time with you later!"
Fogan scoffed and did the same. His dao avatar was an orc rider with two giant war-axes on a massive hyena-like beast while his nascent soul was the copy of himself, but everything was covered in bright silver light.
As soon as his nascent soul and the dao avatar merged, the dao avatar orc rider and the beast transformed into light element spirits while they maintained their shape and form.
Fogan sent his soul to attack the fiery spear horseman.
Jiao Chu's nascent soul also charged at Fogan.
The flame horseman's spear and the orc rider's axes intersected!
BOOM
The horseman's spear punctured through the orc rider's chest while the war-axes of the orc left two X-shaped wounds on the horseman's body.
The same wounds appeared on the real bodies of both fighters while their nascent souls dispersed into smoke, returning to their physical bodies to recuperate from the injuries.
Jiao Chu faltered backward while he popped a high-grade healing pill to his mouth. Then, he took several deep breathes to let the pill effect heal his X wounds.
Meanwhile, Fogan simply took out a metal canteen and sipped some water. His injuries disappeared on the spot.
Fortunately, his nascent soul transformed into a light elemental spirit first, so his soul took no damage from the attack. The same was true to Jiao Chu as the soul was a fire elemental spirit.
While Fogan's eyes locked with Jiao Chu's, he clapped his hands and started using a new technique, learned from Zhao Bao.
The crimson skin of Fogan shone as the light element Qi boosted the orc's overall strength, speed, and reflex.
Jiao Chu also circulated his fire, wind, and metal element Qi to buff his nascent soul, preparing for the next exchange.
But Jiao Chu didn't follow up with another attack, two other nascent soul cultivators behind the spearman charged at Fogan.
Both of them had a similar facial outline as they were relatives.
One of them was a muscular old man with a rough silver short beard. Like Jiao Chu, he had a golden battle helmet and plate armor on. However, his armor only covered his chest and shoulders. The bulging biceps and triceps of this old general were in clear view.
Meanwhile, the other one looked younger as he only had a goatee black beard. He wore similar gear, but they were painted in silver. As for his constitution, he was a bit leaner, but he looked buffed nonetheless.
The gold and silver elders brought out their heaven-grade dadaos and merged their physical bodies with their nascent souls, transforming them into 3-meter goliaths. Even their weapons expanded their sizes according to the transformation.
"Too bad, orc. This is a team fight."
"Right, if you were to fight Jiao Chu one-on-one, you might have a slim chance of victory. But against us, you have no chance!"
…
As soon as the two fighters charged at Fogan, the people from these two elders cheered while some of the spectators exclaimed in excitement.
"That's Gao Lan the Gold Saber and Gao Gan the Silver Saber! The Gao Clan finally uses their top elders!?
"Silver Gao can neutralize his enemy's essence-based techniques and nascent soul attacks while Gold Gao is immune to elemental Qi attacks! If they merge their nascent souls with their real bodies and fought alongside each other, no one can penetrate their insane defense and their trickeries!"
"Right. Aside from that giant orc, I don't think those children will have a chance against the two Gaos. This group battle will turn into group sex soon."
"Dammit! I wish I were one of the fighters! I want to bang those sexy demon girls!"
The crowd sneered as they expected Gao Lan and Gao Gan to finish off the orc and end the match right away.
But as Gao Lan and Gao Gan got in front of Fogan, the orc smirked.
"You're correct. This is a team fight. I don't fight alone."
A glowing silver spear in a white rabbit's hands found its way to Gao Lan's left abdomen while a gold dagger, the Basilisk King Dagger, suddenly appeared behind Gao Gan along with the gleaming golden pupils of Ma Moxi.
Both weapons hit their opponents!
