The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning

"Wait a minute."

Li Zhen suddenly gestured for Meng Ge, who was eager to show off his prowess, to pause.

Mongo was slightly displeased with this, but when faced with what he perceived as the weaker party, the tyrant was willing to feign some patience.

"Is there anything else?"

"It's not a big deal."

Li Zhen turned around and gestured to the silent Jason.

"Take Shazam a little further away and check his injuries."

Jason paused for a moment, then jogged over to the two of them and helped the unconscious Shazam, who was stuck in the pit, onto his shoulder.

Mongo watched this scene quietly, then seemed to have thought of something interesting and spoke again.

"It seems you two have an admirable friendship, and I have a small suggestion to make."

Li Zhen turned around and looked at the tall Meng Ge with a slightly confused expression.

"What?" "I don't have the patience to subdue you one by one. If you lose to me next, all three of you will have to stay and become my fighters."

Even though Li Zhen had prepared herself for the performance, she was still taken aback by Meng Ge's unexpectedly large appetite.

That old rascal has some pretty good ideas, trying to include three people at once.

This request seems to demonstrate Mongo's absolute trust in the so-called combat power display.

They have blind confidence in the gap between their own strength and that of Li Zhen.

But Li Zhen simply couldn't agree so quickly.

Who knows if this cunning old fox is just a rough-looking guy, and if he becomes suspicious of Li Zhen if she agrees too quickly?

He could only feign a troubled frown before finally managing to squeeze out a sentence.

"We are friends, not masters and servants. I cannot arbitrarily promise you their freedom."

After being rejected by Li Zhen, Meng Ge's expression darkened, and there seemed to be hidden anger in his eyes.

Li Zhen met his gaze without turning her head, neither humble nor arrogant.

Suddenly, the expression of hidden anger on Mengo's face vanished, as if he had never been angry at all, and he even revealed a smile. He put his hands behind his back, turned around and walked away.

"Forget it, after defeating you, all you'll have left is that mute (referring to Jason), it won't take me much time."

Then Mongo began to instruct his subordinates to transform the vacant 'temporary arena' into a formal gladiatorial ring.

This guy is quite particular about rituals in order to win over experts, especially someone like Li Zhen who has relative strength (and is not a threat to him) and is willing to talk.

When Mongo first recruited Rob, he probably intended to be more discreet, but Rob's scoundrel personality and foul mouth were simply too much of a problem.

Li Zhen gave Meng Ge's tall figure a deep look.

He remained outwardly calm, but inwardly, after reflecting on the conversation, he was still somewhat astonished.

This seemingly rough and uncouth fellow is actually a super old silver coin.

Perhaps it was because Li Zhen's victory over the wolf with a reverse score that made him so concerned that he actually started to test her.

If Li Zhen had been too eager to succeed and had casually agreed to Meng Ge's unreasonable demands, this roughneck would probably have been extremely wary.

Although Mengo may not have expected that Li Zhen also possessed a true body with a strength likely approaching 9.0, the difficulty of launching a sneak attack later would definitely increase.

Now that Mongo had given them time, Li Zhen became more composed and, together with Jason, moved the unconscious Shazam to the side. She placed one hand on Shazam's shoulder and muttered something under her breath.

Jason looked at Li Zhen's posture and corrected her somewhat strangely.

"If you want to check his physical condition, shouldn't you at least check the pulse in his carotid artery?"

Li Zhen ignored him, quickly finished reciting, and then glanced sideways at Jason.

"Your medical ideas are somewhat outdated."

He then ignored Jason and got up to turn back towards Mongo.

At this time, a relatively professional and spacious arena has been set up. It is somewhat similar in form to an underground boxing ring on Earth. Li Zhen had seen it once when he was reviewing Mar's information before forming the Teen Titans.

However, the barbed wire that prevented escape was replaced inside the war fortress with some kind of laser cage with repulsive force.

It is also larger in area, roughly the size of four or five football fields pieced together.

It seems that even in alien gladiatorial combat, there are rules that prevent flying gladiators from creating too much distance between each other.

In other words, Li Zhen will have to resort to pure hand-to-hand combat with Meng Ge in this small gladiator cage.

Hearing Li Zhen's undisguised footsteps, Meng Ge slightly turned his head, his hands still behind his back. "Looks like you're ready?"

"If I were the only one here, I would be ready at any moment."

Li Zhen looked up and glanced around at the blue light cages that could almost burn the retina, her brows furrowing slightly.

"A flashy but impractical decoration."

These lasers can only intercept weaker creatures. Theoretically, if Shazam gets serious, he could pass through this laser cage without taking any damage.

Mongo had turned around completely.

He heard Li Zhen's assessment, but he remained unperturbed.

Mongo even wanted to share his philosophical views, as a passionate gladiator, on the laser network that covered the arena.

"In my hometown, we were still living in a primitive, uncivilized era..."

As Meng Gona began his long story, starting from the ancient, barbaric era of Meng Gao Star, Li Zhen reached out and stopped him, feeling quite annoyed.

He no longer needed to stall for time, so letting Mongo continue was pure torture.

"I have absolutely no interest in your hobbies. If you want to teach me philosophy, you can either become the victor and then stand on my head while you lecture." "...Hmph."

Meng Ge was genuinely displeased this time, but he didn't say anything more. Instead, he waited for a sharp whistle to sound outside the cage before reaching out and beckoning to Li Zhen.

As the whistle blew out, the ground, which was originally made of pure metal, began to ripple like water, and then, right in front of Li Zhen, it transformed into something resembling a desert on Earth.

Li Zhen lowered her head and stepped on the incredibly realistic sand, and while she was greatly surprised, she quickly entered battle mode.

Next, he must use this divinely created body, which is weaker than Mongo in every way, to go all out and strive for a spectacular defeat.

Only in this way can Mongo, who is overwhelmed by a sense of accomplishment and becomes complacent, reveal even greater flaws.

With a stomp of his foot, a large cloud of yellow sand burst forth from the simulated desert battlefield environment, followed by an incredibly swift white shadow that pierced straight towards Meng Ge.

As Meng Ge faced Li Zhen's charge, he maintained the posture of one hand behind his back, with only the large, mocking hand in front of him.

Not moving at all.

Meanwhile, the ordinary Mongols outside the arena immediately booed when they saw Li Zhen charging straight ahead.

Mongo's daughter smiled smugly once more. "With such a vast difference in power, this surprise attack will only cause him to smash into my father's chest like a lump of mud!"

Jason, who had maintained a cool and aloof persona throughout, finally couldn't hold back against the daughter of Mongo, who cowered like a quail when at a disadvantage but blatantly mocked when she had an advantage.

He uttered the most aggressive words ever spoken to his enemy.

"Did your father accidentally attach the wrong thing to your anus when you were born, and raise that lump that was sticking out of your ass?"

Before Mongo's daughter could hear such creative insults, Jason continued his barrage of attacks.

"Weak, arrogant, and with such a lowly perspective, are you really the daughter of the God of War?"

In the arena, just as Li Zhen was about to sprint close to Mongo, she made a sudden stop and sharp turn, kicking a handful of virtual yellow sand into Mongo's face.

He then finally lunged forward and punched Mongo in the groin.

Unfortunately, Mengo's broad, rough hands had already intercepted Li Zhen's attack route a step ahead.

"So fast?!"

Mongo's actual agility is completely disproportionate to his large physique.

Fortunately, Li Zhen's combat experience was rich enough. He retained a third of his strength and used his top-notch micro-management to twist his body in time, avoiding Meng Ge's grab that was intended to capture him in one step. Without any follow-up attacks, Li Zhen simply leaned back and flew backward, creating distance in the fight.

The yellow sand that had just been kicked up had dissipated, and Mongo was still standing in the same spot, his face calm, looking down at his empty hand—his other hand was still behind his back.

Li Zhen's face turned ashen as she watched Meng Ge's one-handed attack, her expression one of utter disbelief and near-explosion.

However, he finally realized that Mongo was ultimately no match for him.

This guy is arrogant enough.
