Zongwang: Unspeakable fear!

Chapter 850 The Peak of Gladiators Begins

The two-headed ogre possesses both magical and physical strength, and can use magic simultaneously in melee combat. This fighting style is extremely advantageous and often results in a synergistic effect greater than the sum of its parts.

However, this is under the condition that the strength difference is not significant.

The gap between Gao Yang and the two-headed ogre was so vast that it was impossible to bridge, which resulted in the two-headed ogre being unable to even block a single sword strike from Gao Yang.

The two-headed ogre's enormous body vanished in an instant, and a notification appeared before Gao Yang's eyes at just the right moment.

He won easily in the third round as well.

Gao Yang looked up at the sky, his eyes burning with fighting spirit. The next round of battle would probably be a fight in their true forms. He just didn't know how to fight with so many people around.

If it's one round after another, a battle involving 40,000 people would take a very long time.

If that's the case, then the timeline of the Gladiator's Peak might exceed his expectations.

This has both advantages and disadvantages. If the timeline is extended, Gao Yang will have enough time to improve his own strength in order to better cope with the battle agreement with the Fallen Saint Heart.

The downside is that this timeline will delay the progress of the breakthrough for those with a high-yang constitution.

Of course, how the battle will actually take place will depend on the organizers' arrangements.

After all, these participants come from all over the multiverse, and it is not an easy task to accurately gather them together.

A flash of light, and Gao Yang's consciousness returned to his physical body.

When there are no extraneous matters, the life of meditation is always peaceful.

Or rather, this peaceful life is the normal life for powerful beings in the multiverse.

Those days spent living amidst constant violence and bloodshed are actually quite rare.

Of course, tranquility does not mean complacency. In peaceful times, what is needed is more serious practice and hard work to accumulate strength. Only by constantly improving can we have enough confidence to deal with unexpected situations.

Gao Yang opened the integrated network panel and looked at the prompts related to the Arena of Valor.

"The Gladiator's Peak will officially open in three days, and all future battles will be fought in the Gladiator's Peak in real life."

"Once gladiators enter the cage arena, a decisive battle must be fought, either with one side dying or the other voluntarily surrendering."

"Before each gladiator begins, gladiators can choose whether or not to participate. If they refuse to participate, they will lose their status as Gladiator of the Peak and will be unable to participate in any activities related to the pantheon of war in the future."

"The Gladiator's Peak will be open to the public. During the event, spectators can purchase tickets to enter the Gladiator's Peak to watch the matches. Gladiators can enter for free and will have 2 to 10 viewing tickets (depending on the gladiator's ranking)."

"When a gladiator participates in a fight, he or she shall enjoy one-tenth of the benefits generated at the pinnacle of gladiatorial combat, regardless of victory or defeat."

As Gao Yang looked at the relevant prompts for the Gladiator's Summit event, his eyes gleamed.

Just as he had guessed, the Gladiator's Summit, established by the God of War, was not merely an event to please Him, but a grand event affecting countless beings throughout the multiverse.

There are many winners in this event.

As the organizers, the God of War and the pantheon of war are naturally the biggest winners. But in addition, the gladiators who participate in the gladiatorial combat are also winners. Whether it is obtaining corresponding treasures from the God of War or sharing the profits generated by the off-site audience in the subsequent battles at the pinnacle of gladiatorial combat, the gains are extremely considerable.

Not to mention the multiverse reputation that gladiators might gain in the process.

For the audience, this event will undoubtedly broaden their horizons considerably.

Legendary battles are rarely seen by ordinary people, and the battles of legendary powerhouses are not something ordinary people can witness up close; the mere aftershocks of the battle can mercilessly obliterate ordinary people.

At the pinnacle of the arena, they can stand on the stands and watch legendary warriors fight up close, absorbing their combat experience.

Not to mention, they can also use their own wealth to vigorously support their favorite legendary powerhouses, and once the support is successful, they will receive an astonishingly generous reward.

Yes, this kind of support also has a specific name: spinach.

Of course, this is also an important part of the gladiators' earnings.

It can only be said that the operating model of Gladiator's Peak is no different from the gladiator arena in Gao Yang's understanding. At most, Gladiator's Peak is larger in scale, has a wider audience, stronger gladiators, and is more high-end overall.

Gao Yang opened the Multiverse Activity Log and looked at the activities at the Gladiator's Peak.

With the conclusion of the three rounds of battles, the original Gladiator's Summit event page has been updated. The most important updates include the addition of a ticket purchase link, a preview of the next battle, and a channel for gladiators from both sides to "cheering on" their opponents.

Gao Yang lowered his gaze to his own gladiator number, and the ten free viewing tickets following that number.

Ten viewing tickets should be enough, since there aren't many people who can actually get an invitation from him.

Of course, if an enemy wants to watch his match, they will have to spend a considerable amount of money to buy a ticket. How could tickets for a battle that includes legendary powerhouses from across the entire multiverse be cheap?

At the very least, most ordinary superhumans cannot afford it.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Yang opened his online friend list and clicked on Milofina's profile picture.

Gao Yang: [Gladiator's Peak Free Viewing Ticket], Queen Milofina, have you been paying attention to the recent Gladiator's Peak events?

Less than a minute after Gao Yang sent the message, he saw Milofina's reply.

Milofina: Meow? Gao Yang, did you participate in the Gladiator's Summit event hosted by the God of War?
Milofina: That's dangerous, isn't it?

Milofina: Are you hurt?
Gao Yang: No, the first three battles were over in just a few sword strikes. Those legends couldn't even touch me.

Gao Yang: If you have time while I'm fighting, you can come and take a look.

Milofina looked at Gao Yang's message, then lazily turned over, pressing her already sunburnt side down and exposing the other side to the warm sunlight.

Milofina: Meow~ No problem, but Gao Yang, could you give me another one? I want to come watch your gladiator fight with my grandmother.

Gao Yang smiled and then gave Milofina a free viewing ticket.

After returning from the battlefield, Gao Yang wanted to cultivate in seclusion, so Milofina did not disturb him. Garuda shared the same decision.

Gao Yang opened Garuda's chat window and sent him two free viewing tickets.

Then, after thinking about it, he sent two more pictures to Luke and Fana, since they were both a couple and he couldn't show favoritism to one over the other.

In addition, there are Candrus and Agnia.

However, when Gao Yang sent the viewing ticket to Candrus, Candrus replied quickly. Candrus: Thank you, sir. But I already have a viewing ticket. I'll just go to the Arena to watch your battle.

Gao Yang looked at Candrus's reply and, thinking of the other party's incredible luck, didn't hesitate.

In this way, he would have three cards left, Lisa would occupy one fixed spot, leaving only the last two cards.

However, he couldn't think of anyone to give it to for the time being, so he had to put it aside for now.

With this thought in mind, Gao Yang slowly closed his eyes, and the will that had been dormant in his mind began to grow slowly as the Eternal and Undying Meditation Method was activated.

Having practiced the Eternal and Undying Meditation Method for so long, Gao Yang has gradually discovered the advantages of this meditation method that is perfectly suited to him.

The practice of the Eternal Undying Meditation Method is extremely well-suited to the [Primordial Unity] effect bestowed upon him by the sole War God to whom he serves.

The Primordial Unity grants Gao Yang the heaven-defying effect of having an immortal will and an indestructible body, and an indestructible body and an immortal will.

The practice of the Eternal and Undying Meditation Method slowly infuses Gao Yang's will into his physical body, causing every cell of his body to gradually be imbued with the radiance of his will, thereby achieving the fusion of body and will.

This makes his will and body inseparable, so that even if only a drop of blood remains, he can be resurrected through the will contained in that drop of blood.

This is not a rapid regeneration in a short period of time, but a complete resurrection using a single drop of blood, days, months, or even years or decades after death.

Of course, Gao Yang cannot do that in a short period of time.

Because he had not practiced the Eternal and Undying Meditation Method for very long, his will had only permeated less than two percent of his physical body.

This is undoubtedly a long process, but Gao Yang has enough time to complete it.

At the same time, both the Eternal Undying Meditation Method and the [Primordial Unity] can be linked with the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts.

After all, if one cultivates the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts to its fullest extent, one is said to achieve physical immortality and become a saint.

Gao Yang estimated that when one cultivates the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts to the eighth or ninth level, it will involve the fusion of will and body.

What he is doing now is undoubtedly carrying out this process ahead of schedule.

This will be very meaningful for his subsequent spiritual practice.

Of course, even without the aforementioned significance, he would not slack off in his cultivation, since meditation could slowly enhance and refine his willpower.

Like most readers, the three-day period was exceptionally long and resilient.

After Gao Yang repeated his daily practice six times, three days had barely passed.

"Network notification: The Gladiator's Summit will begin in ten minutes. Opening match: Jin Kara (Peak Gladiator 1000) VS Yorn Stone (Peak Gladiator 999). If you wish to watch, please enter the Gladiator's Summit before it begins."

Gao Yang lay on the big bed, with Lisa nestled in his arms, her heavy conscience pressing down into a breathtaking arc.

"The Gladiator Showdown is about to begin. Let's go and witness the battle between the pinnacle legends from the multiverse."

"Well, okay~"

Three minutes later, with a flash of light, Gao Yang and Lisa, dressed in their finest attire, appeared simultaneously on the golden throne.

The ten-meter-wide golden throne was exceptionally eye-catching, drawing curious glances from onlookers.

However, no matter how curious they were, their gaze and senses could not penetrate the barrier of the golden throne.

However, Gao Yang and Lisa, who were seated on the Golden Throne, could see the surrounding area and the scene in the prison battlefield without any obstruction.

"Yu, our position is somewhat different from theirs."

Lisa looked around and then looked at Gao Yang with some curiosity.

Gao Yang pointed to another golden throne not far away and said, "This is a privilege that only top gladiators can enjoy. There should be a thousand of these golden thrones in this huge gladiator arena."

This can be seen from the rankings of the two top gladiators in the opening match.

As time went on, the originally empty arena was filled with intelligent beings of all shapes and sizes. It is roughly estimated that no less than a million people came to watch!
Soon, the entire arena was packed, and the terrifying sound waves transformed into a tsunami that swept across the entire arena.

Its momentum was so great that it seemed that even the astral plane could hear the echoes from here.

"Meow~ Gao Yang, long time no see, did you miss me?"

Beside the golden throne, a flash of light appeared, and Milofina's figure appeared next to Gao Yang.

Milofina, who arrived at the Gladiator's Summit via a free viewing ticket sent by Gao Yang, naturally had her consciousness directly teleported to Gao Yang's location without being hindered by the rules of the Golden Throne.

Beside Milofina was her grandmother Mina, who was relatively slender and had a kind face.

She looked up at Gao Yang and said softly, "It's been a long time, Mr. Gao Yang."

“Grandma Mina, you can call me Gao Yang or Xiao Yang. This is Lisa, my love.” Gao Yang bowed slightly, maintaining respect for his elders.

After greeting Mina's grandmother, Gao Yang turned to Milofina and said with a smile, "Of course, I miss you often."

As the two were talking, figures gradually appeared beside them: Garuda and Liya, Luke and Fana, Ruan Xiaoyu and Daoist Xuanqing, and Agnia with her long, fiery red hair.

With the arrival of the crowd, the place immediately became more lively.

However, this excitement did not last long before it gradually subsided, as the first battle at the pinnacle of gladiatorial combat was about to begin.

The passionate Golden-Winged Man, Jin Wu, had appeared beneath the dome of the Gladiator's Peak. He looked down over the entire Gladiator's Peak and passionately introduced the basic information of the gladiators from both sides.

After his brief but passionate introduction, two human legends of normal build appeared in the prison battlefield below, accompanied by golden beams of light.

The more muscular man on the left, wielding a battle sword, is King Kara, ranked 1000th among top gladiators. The lean man on the right, wielding a slender sword, is Yorn Stone, ranked 999th among top gladiators.

Don't assume they're weak just because they're ranked at the bottom.

It's important to know that the number of legendary warriors participating in the war exceeded 300,000, while there were only 1,000 peak gladiators.

Among the more than 300,000 legendary warriors who participated in the battle, Jin Kara and Yann Stone ranked in the top 1,000, which represents extremely terrifying strength.
