Just as she was about to move closer to watch the match on the fifth ring, her attention was attracted by Zhuge Youlin who was walking not far away.
Soon, Zhuge Youlin came in front of her.
He smiled and said, "You don't seem to be hurt at all, that's pretty impressive!"
Then he asked again: "Do you want to go to the Colosseum?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan calmly glanced towards the No. 5 ring, only to see that there was no one on the ring anymore, which meant the fight must have ended.
It was the young man who looked like Pei Su, and he also disappeared.
Chen Yan retracted her gaze: "Okay."
Soon, the two of them went to the Colosseum together. The smell of blood in the Colosseum was stronger, and the deafening roars of beasts made people's senses more sensitive.
The Colosseum only has a huge arena, which is built below and surrounded by audience seats. If you want to participate in animal fighting, the rules are almost the same as those in the martial arts arena.
Most of the people who come to the Colosseum are beastmasters and summoners.
A beast tamer is different from a summoner. A beast tamer makes a contract with spirit beasts in reality, while a summoner summons spirit beasts from a mysterious space.
The beasts that a beast tamer tames are spirit beasts, while the beasts that a summoner summons are exotic beasts.
The types of beasts are different.
This beast fight does not involve summoning one's own contracted beast to fight, but rather a fight between humans and the beasts provided by the Colosseum.
The beasts in the Colosseum also have different levels of cultivation.
If a beast fighter wants to get more rewards, he can challenge a beast with a higher cultivation level than himself. The greater the difference in cultivation level between the two, the more rewards he will get.
If the difference in cultivation between the two is not too big, even if one wins, he can only get one hundred taels of gold.
Zhuge Youlin looked at the beast fighting in the arena below and was eager to try.
Zhuge Youlin went to sign up immediately.
Chen Yan watched the competition in the arena silently. Not long after, it was Zhuge Youlin's turn. The spirit beast he challenged had a higher cultivation level than him.
As luck would have it, it was a stone beast with a hard shell. Even if Zhuge Youlin wanted to kill it right away, he couldn't.
After all, the stone beast's cultivation was much higher than his.
The match between Zhuge Youlin and the stone beast allowed Chen Yan to see Zhuge Youlin's weaknesses.
Zhuge Youlin is good at long-range combat but weak in close combat.
Because it is difficult for him to perform fine lines at close range.
The thin wire in his hand was sharp, but it was still a little lacking in strength. Facing a spiritual beast with strong defense like the stone beast, he had to prepare for a protracted battle.
The result was just as Chen Yan had expected.
As time passed, Zhuge Youlin suffered more injuries.
The stone beast's shell was not in much better condition, and its ears had been cut off with a thin thread, bleeding profusely. The pain made the stone beast furious.
The stone beast was very powerful and it broke Zhuge Youlin's defensive spiritual shield with one punch.
Bang!
Zhuge Youlin was knocked to the ground and he almost couldn't crawl out. He seemed to spit out a mouthful of blood, soaking his green-faced and fang-toothed mask.
Zhuge Youlin staggered, and when the stone beast attacked again, his eyes turned cold. Just now he had only used the thin threads of four fingers, but now he used all five fingers. In an instant, the five translucent thin threads attacked the stone beast.
Swish——
Zhuge Youlin successfully tripped the stone beast with a thin line.
He rushed towards the stone beast at an extremely fast speed and pierced through its heart with an extremely sharp thread.
With a loud bang, the stone beast fell to the ground.
Zhuge Youlin won.
The whole audience cheered and applauded.
A moment later, when Zhuge Youlin returned to the audience, Chen Yan looked at him.
Zhuge Youlin's eyes were deep. He was holding on, but his unsteady steps betrayed that he was seriously injured.
A fishy and sweet taste surged in Zhuge Youlin's throat, and he spat out another mouthful of blood.
Chen Yan just looked at him indifferently.
"Chen Yan, I..." Zhuge Youlin's voice was hoarse, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Chen Yan: "You want to go back?"
Zhuge Youlin raised his hand to cover his chest which was in unbearable pain, frowned and nodded.
Chen Yan said calmly: "Well, you go back."
Zhuge Youlin: "..."
He pursed his bloody lips: "I'm hurt."
Chen Yan: "I know."
These words choked Zhuge Youlin. He couldn't leave now because he knew that he had won so much money. Once he went out, someone would definitely follow him, wanting to kill him and steal his money.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Youlin felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Zhuge Youlin frowned, "Take me back."
Chen Yan: "But I haven't participated in the beast fight yet."
Zhuge Youlin thought about it and suggested: "Send me back, then come back."
"Why don't you stay here and wait until I finish the beast fight, then I'll go back with you." Chen Yan said calmly.
Zhuge Youlin was stunned.
He suddenly felt a little aggrieved: "Why are you so heartless?"
Chen Yan: “…”
If she hadn't known Zhuge Youlin and hadn't established a friendship with him for some time, she would probably have replied: Go back on your own.
Zhuge Youlin couldn't hold on any longer before she answered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he moved to the seat next to Chen Yan as quickly as possible.
“Ahem…”
He is coughing up blood.
Seeing this, Chen Yan asked, "Don't you have any pills?"
"How could I have such an expensive thing?" Zhuge Youlin's voice was hoarse. He felt a sharp pain in his chest from being hit by the stone beast. The pain was so severe that he couldn't help but frown and howl.
Chen Yan was puzzled: "You make so much money, but you don't buy one or two pills for yourself?"
"No." Zhuge Youlin's face turned pale with pain.
Chen Yan: "... miser."
She sighed softly, then stood up and helped Zhuge Youlin up.
"I'll take you back."
She originally thought that Zhuge Youlin had some elixirs on him, and that he could hold on after taking some. But now it seems that he is just holding on.
Zhuge Youlin raised his hand and placed it on Shen Yan's shoulder, whimpering in pain and leaning towards Shen Yan. The next moment, he suddenly felt a chill coming from Shen Yan. He subconsciously thought that Shen Yan disliked his behavior.
So, Zhuge Youlin withdrew his hand, took out a wooden crutch from the storage space, and used the crutch to support his body.
Seeing this, Chen Yan didn't say much.
She was going to escort Zhuge Youlin back to the inn, but thinking that Zhuge Youlin's hair was quite conspicuous and would attract a lot of people's attention, she thought about it, took out a tablecloth from the storage space, and wrapped his head.
"Hey, hey, hey! My image... ahem..." Zhuge Youlin was forced to accept such an ugly tablecloth wrapped around his head. He wanted to untie it, but was glanced at coldly by Chen Yan.
Zhuge Youlin immediately withdrew his hand.
Zhuge Youlin frowned, sighed, and accepted his fate.
At this time, Chen Yan accompanied him to the outside of the martial beast field and asked in confusion: "You have so much money, why don't you spend it? Besides, elixirs should be indispensable for practitioners. Because only with elixirs can you save your life in the first place."
