Chapter 979: Subterfuge
Chapter 979: Subterfuge
Seeing that Xu Chuniang did not answer, the female immortal was not annoyed, but only pretended to be careless.
“There are many fighters in the arena, even at the same level of the fighters, the strength of the weak and strong, only need to spend a little bit of immortal crystals, you can avoid more powerful opponents, adding three points of the chance of winning for nothing, why not do it?
Since Immortal Xu has come to this fighting arena, she naturally wants to go the distance in this arena, right?”
The other party made it so obvious, how could Xu Chuniang not understand.
Her gaze moved slightly, “Could it be that the number of fights in the arena are all controlled by the fairy?”
The female fairy shook her head, “I don’t have this ability, but there are more d-grade fighters in the arena, so helping you avoid those tough, tough opponents and picking some relatively weaker opponents is still doable.
I don’t want more either, if you win, split half of the immortal crystals you win with me, how about it?”
Xu Chuniang didn’t hastily refuse, and asked back, “Then what if I lose?”
“Don’t worry, there won’t be any penalties even if a D ranked fighter loses, in case you do lose, I’ll take nothing from you since.”
Xu Chuniang made a face of consideration, and had actually already thought about how to refuse.
“I’m sorry, Fairy’s offer, forgive me for not being able to agree to it, after all, I came to the fighting arena just to earn Immortal Crystals.”
Hearing Xu Chuniang’s words, the female immortal wasn’t enraged, and only faintly said.
“I know the price I want isn’t low, but this is supposed to be a win-win situation, without my help, you won’t win the bout and you won’t earn any Immortal Crystals.”
“I appreciate the fairy’s kindness, it’s just that I want to try and see how far I can go in the arena by my own strength.”
The female fairy smiled and shook her head, “Since you’ve already made up your mind, I won’t advise you much, if you change your mind one day, you can come to the outer arena to find me, my name is Lu Zhi.
There is the backyard, you can choose an unoccupied courtyard to use for living, but the backyard of the fighting arena is also not peaceful, if there is nothing going on, it is best not to walk around freely in the backyard, I will leave first, good luck.”
Although there was a clear rule that prohibited fighters from having fights in the backyard, the truth was that as long as they didn’t kill anyone or do anything too out of the ordinary, no one cared about it.
Xu Chuniang watched Lu Zhi go far away and turned towards the backyard.
Just as she stepped into the backyard, before she had time to take a closer look at her surroundings, she was stared at by several people.
“Hey, there’s another newcomer.”
Several people looked at Xu Chuniang with unkind gazes, sizing her up from head to toe as if assessing her strength.
Someone spoke in a low voice, “The human race’s physique and strength are average, but some of them are very smart and have comprehended quite a few law powers and divine abilities.”
The remaining few sniffed with disdain.
So what if they had comprehended even more laws, the rules of the lower realms were incomplete, and the power of laws that could be utilized was extremely limited
There was even a three-foot tall giant who sneered, “It’s not like I haven’t fought with the Human Race before, their bones are so brittle that they shatter with a hard pinch, compared to us giants, they’re complete trash.”
Saying so, he looked towards Xu Chuniang as if provoking, “Hey, Human Race, come over here.”
Xu Chuniang swept the talking giant, her face calm.
The giant’s body was huge and powerful, and in terms of physique alone, it was indeed much stronger than the Human Race of the same cultivation level.
But each race had each race’s strengths and weaknesses, and although the Giants had high physical strength, they generally disliked using their brains, and at best, they could comprehend the Laws of Force or the Laws of Solidity.
As for the divine ability derived from the power of law, it is even more half-understood.
Seeing that she didn’t pay attention to herself, the giant felt that his face was a little embarrassed, and his color sank slightly.
“Human, are you deaf? I’m talking to you!” Xu Chuniang glanced at him in surprise, “Did you just speak, I only heard a roar and thought it was a dog barking somewhere.”
“You!”
The giant’s face became much grimmer in an instant, and his voice was low and somber, “Human, you’re looking for death!”
As soon as his words fell, he charged towards Xu Chuniang.
The giant was very tall and had very long legs, and because he wanted to teach this human race who didn’t know the heights of heaven a lesson, he deliberately used his full strength, so fast that it was like a hurricane, leaving only a residual shadow in its place, and his large fist smashed down towards Xu Chuniang.
Looking at this situation, if this was smashed solidly, I’m afraid that the head would have to be blown apart.
When the others saw this scene, they all gloated.
In the backyard, bullying new fighters was already an unspoken unspoken rule for everyone.
They hadn’t been treated this way when they first stepped into the backyard.
If one had eyesight, one would simply say some nice words and hand over some immortal crystals, and the matter would just go away.
Like today’s human, not only did he have no eyesight, but his words were also exceptionally indebted, so a bitter meal was inevitable.
However, at the time when everyone thought that the giant’s fist was going to hit the ground, a faint ripple appeared on Xu Chuniang’s body.
The ripples were so faint that they could not be seen without a closer look.
When the giant’s fist was about to land on her body, it touched the ripples first.
The seemingly harmless ripples violently erupted with a huge suction force, sucking in the giant’s entire right arm.
“Ah!”
The giant cried out in pain, his face instantly turning pale as he subconsciously drew back, but his right arm was empty.
And the blood and pain at his shoulder were constantly prompting him that this all happened in a flash, he didn’t even see how his opponent struck.
The giant’s gaze towards Xu Chuniang changed from the cocky and contemptuous one at the beginning to one filled with fear and scorn.
“What did you do? Why is my hand missing?”
Xu Chuniang hooked her lips slightly, satisfied with the giant’s horror, and explained in a good mood.
“Some laws and divine abilities that you can’t see are just that, and I’ve heard that fighters aren’t allowed to make too much noise in the backyard, so I only took one of your arms.
If I meet you next time in the fighting arena, I won’t let you off so easily.”
The giant’s heart was horrified, and after realizing that he was not her match at all, he backed away without saying a word.
It wasn’t until he had pulled away from Xu Chuniang long enough that he turned around and fled without looking back.
The remaining few looked at each other in dismay, the giant was already the strongest amongst the few of them, if even he was not a match for this newcomer, then the few of them would be even more so.
It seemed that this time, there was an extraordinary newcomer in the arena!
Seeing Xu Chuniang looking over towards them, several people hurriedly squeezed out smiles, “Fairy is really good at what she does, it’s an eye-opener for us, heh ……”
“Fairy’s strength is superb, I’m afraid it won’t be long before she can advance smoothly, I hereby wish fairy a smooth fight, haha!”
There is also someone who had a bright idea, gritted his teeth and touched out a small bag of immortal crystals from his body, “This is a little bit of my little heart, I hope to make a good karma with the fairy, I hope the fairy does not mind.”
