Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Damn it, is this guy surnamed Duan on some kind of adrenaline rush or drugs? How can he be so strong...!"

"Even an eighth-level Yuanhai Realm expert couldn't stop this guy?!"

On the stands not far away, seeing Lu Feng not only winning every battle but also crushing his opponents in every match, the bald cultivator who was originally in charge of opening the betting market became a little anxious.

Because these bookmakers are not without background; they are employees of the Dragon Arena. Their current betting operations are merely a means to plunder more money and resources from martial artists outside the arena.

If Lu Feng is allowed to continue his winning streak, not only will the bald man lose everything, but he will also be punished by the Dragon Arena, and his life may even be in danger!

"If this guy wins three more games in a row, I'm afraid my life will be in danger...!"

"No! We have to find a way to get rid of this guy surnamed Duan...!"

Thinking this, the bald cultivator withdrew his gaze, then secretly winked at a gray-robed servant beside him, saying, "You, you little brat, come here!"

"Boss, what are your orders?"

Faced with the bald cultivator's hint, the gray-robed servant dared not delay and immediately moved closer.

"You brat, go tell Master Fei that there's something new happening at the Jade Arena. Someone has not only achieved a five-game winning streak, but is also attempting to clear the Bloodbath Path...!"

The bald cultivator transmitted his voice in a deep voice, while the gray-robed servant, equally apprehensive, immediately accepted the order and left, saying, "Yes, boss!"

Before long, the gray-clad servant hurriedly arrived at the entrance of the Dragon Slaying Hall.

Before the gray-clad servant could even send someone to announce his arrival, he saw Zhang Shunfei slowly emerge from the hall. His face lit up with joy, and he rushed forward, saying, "This humble servant greets Master Fei!"

"Where did you come from, you piece of trash?"

Seeing the gray-clad servant suddenly block his way, Zhang Shunfei frowned slightly, somewhat displeased.

After all, the opponent's Yuan energy aura was extremely weak, not even reaching the Opening Meridian Realm, which was simply too weak!

Zhang Shunfei was naturally very unhappy that such a minor character, who was worse than an extra, dared to block the path of him, a top assassin.

"Reporting to Master Fei! I was sent by Steward Zhang. There was a minor incident at the Jade Arena, which is why I've come to inform you..."

Recalling the bald cultivator's instructions, the gray-robed servant dared not hesitate and immediately explained respectfully.

"There was a minor incident at the Jade Arena?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shunfei was taken aback for a moment, then narrowed his eyes slightly, "What exactly happened...?"

"Brother Fei, the truth is..."

Faced with Zhang Shunfei's cold gaze, the gray-clad servant was filled with fear and immediately told him everything about Lu Feng's journey on the Blood Battle Road and his five consecutive victories, without daring to hide anything!

"You mean another promising newcomer has emerged at the Jade Arena?"

Upon hearing the report from the gray-clad servant, Zhang Shunfei also frowned slightly, feeling surprised.

After all, there have been far too many talented newcomers emerging in the last few days. First, there was Lu Feng, whom he had previously sent people to recruit, and now there is Duan Renzhi, a rogue cultivator whom he had never even heard of.

"Brother Fei, in your opinion, what should we do next?"

Seeing Zhang Shunfei remain silent, the gray-clad servant beside him couldn't help but muster up his courage and ask.

"It's simple, just make sure this guy loses his sixth game!"

Composing himself, Zhang Shunfei's lips curled into a slight smile, then turned into a cold laugh. "Go back and tell that guy surnamed Zhang to change the opponent for the sixth match. Let that Japanese devil who was supposed to be the last one go up and test Duan Renzhi's strength earlier..."

"Master Fei, is the person you're talking about the Japanese swordsman, Yagyu Ukiichiro?"

"Hmm, although this Japanese devil hasn't even reached the Profound Astral Realm yet, only half a step into it, he's more than capable of dealing with a mere fourth-level Yuan Sea Realm brat!"

Zhang Shunfei stood with his hands behind his back, his face still calm. It seemed that in his opinion, no matter how strong Duan Renzhi was, he would never be able to defeat Yagyu Fuichiro, who was at the half-step Xuan Gang realm, and would eventually stop there!

"I understand!"

Upon hearing this, the gray-clad servant also knelt down to pay his respects, then turned and hurriedly left the Dragon Slaying Hall.

...

On the other side, in the core area of ​​the Dragon Arena, on the arena...

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask when the sixth round of the Bloodbath Path competition will begin?"

After waiting on the arena for about half an incense stick's time, Lu Feng realized that his opponent for the next match had not yet appeared, so he couldn't help but look at the arena referee.

It wasn't that he lacked patience, but rather that Lu Feng didn't want to waste time here.

"Uh, please be patient, Young Master Duan, your opponent for the sixth match will arrive soon...!"

Faced with Lu Feng's urging, the referee seemed to have something to hide and immediately explained in a low voice, while forcing out an awkward smile.

Thud...!

As soon as the referee finished speaking, a tall, slender figure descended from the sky and landed steadily, creating a shockwave that spread outwards. At the same time, the person was enveloped in an extremely impressive Yuanhai aura, making him a force to be reckoned with!

The newcomer was dressed in a white kimono, with a black-bladed longsword at his waist. His face looked fierce, and there was a terrifying sword scar on the corner of his right eye, clearly indicating that he was a swordsman of considerable skill!

"Heh, so this young man is my opponent?"

Yagyu Ukiichiro slightly raised his eyelids, then slowly lowered them towards Lu Feng on the opposite side of the arena, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. "Young man, your strength is not bad, but you are no match for me...!"

"Why does this guy have such a strange accent?"

"Moreover, the power of this person's Yuanhai aura is almost comparable to that of a Xuan Gang Realm expert...!"

Lu Feng, also sensing the profound and abyss-like Yuanhai aura emanating from Yagyu Ukiichiro, narrowed his eyes slightly. "No, this person's Yuanhai aura, while powerful, hasn't transformed into innate Gang Qi, and it's far inferior to a true Xuan Gang Realm expert, merely a half-step Xuan Gang Realm...!"

"Tch! In just the sixth match, my opponent has already reached the half-step Profound Realm. As expected, the Dragon Arena's spirit stones aren't so easy to earn...!"

Thinking of this, Lu Feng frowned slightly and gritted his teeth inwardly.

Although he had long anticipated that this path to the Bloodbath wouldn't be easy, he still underestimated the Dragon Arena's shamelessness.

In order to stop Lu Feng's winning streak, the Dragon Arena not only pulled some dirty tricks, but also sent out its final powerful opponent in advance, the Japanese sword saint Yagyu Ukiichiro, whose strength is comparable to half a step of the Xuan Gang Realm!

"Lord Liu, Young Hero Duan, the sixth match is about to begin. Please prepare yourselves!"

He bowed slightly to Yagyu Fuichiro and Lu Feng on the stage once more, and the arena referee turned and left the arena, which also marked the official start of the competition!

"Young Master Lu, do not underestimate your opponent; this man's background is not simple..."

Just then, Gu Canyang's deep voice suddenly reminded him, causing Lu Feng to pause for a moment. Then, a look of curiosity appeared on his face. "Gu, do you also know this person's background?"
