Chapter 180: Chapter 178: Where Are You All Looking? [Second]
As the Octopus Prince’s loud cry echoed, darkness was pierced by a chorus of girls’ shrieks, and in that instant, the three n grasped where they were – a place reminiscent of the Roman Colosseum. However, that detail paled in comparison to the importance of the fact that the stands around them were packed with spectators.
A dark mass, the number of people indiscernible.
Definitely not as much as 1.4 billion, but tens of thousands were certainly present.
Suddenly, the three felt that the embarrassnt they had suffered was not too extre; there was still room to make ands.
Right then, the Octopus Prince considerately explained to the trio, “Don’t feel dismayed by the sparse audience, don’t scorn the small stage, for in reality, you exist in ten thousand arenas like this one, and a total of 1.4 billion players are watching your robust bodies! Now, co on, stand straight, spread your legs, and show everyone your formidable physiques!”
The three instantly felt like they wanted to die.
And even more outrageous was…
“There’s another piece of good news,” continued the Octopus Prince. “All the wild monsters of Grade 2 and below from the Huaxia District are also watching this livestream! You’re now famous, you’ve gone viral, you have broken out of the norm! Are you happy?!”
Upon hearing this, the three inwardly roared in fury, “Damn it all!”
At that mont, the three truly wished for death, regretting for the first ti their participation in this tournant, and even more so for provoking that rabbit!
…
A few minutes earlier.
Yi Zheng suddenly received a system notification that the Martial Arts Tournant had begun.
He initially thought it had nothing to do with him and that sleeping soundly was the best plan.
Yet, the system notified him that he and all his subordinates could go and watch the battles!
And so, he took the rabbits with him.
Next, they saw three stark naked fellows, clutching their underwear and blushing furiously under the spotlight, looking like they were about to die.
Yi Zheng quickly guessed the general situation, and with ill-concealed amusent, laughed, “Should I tell them that defective attributes have a ti limit?”
Yi Zheng had tested before that if a fake piece of equipnt had its grade elevated, its defective attribute would persist as long as it was not used.
Once the equipnt was used, or if the trigger conditions for the defective attribute were t, the defective attribute’s duration would be the sa as the deceit ti of the fake item, which was ten seconds.
If the grade of the fake item did not change, the deceit ti would be permanent. However, once the conditions to activate the defective attribute were t, the defective attribute would also expire after ten seconds.
In other words, the equipnt on Xun Long’s group would return to normal after ten seconds.
Regrettably, Xun Long, Xu Tiecheng, and Black Storm clearly did not know this; after all, defective attributes were hidden, visible only to those with high-level Identification Skill and Yi Zheng himself.
Observing the embarrassed trio, Yi Zheng sighed in sympathy, “What a sha, there’s no cara.”
Just as Xun Long and the others were reaching their limit of endurance and were about to get dressed on the spot – after all, the Octopus Prince hadn’t revealed their nas yet, so they hadn’t completely lost face –
They then heard the Octopus Prince shout, “Let formally introduce them to everyone; these three are Xun Long from Azure Dragon Main City, Xu Tiecheng from Xuanwu City, and Black Storm from White Tiger City!”
Their faces turned ashen, but they still decided to put on their equipnt.
They could no longer afford to lose face!
Then they listened as the Octopus Prince continued, “These three possess formidable combat power, a fact that needs no explanation from – their attire has already said it all. They are using performance art to scream to the whole world!
They bear their bodies, foregoing equipnt, and yet they can still sweep away all the trash present!
What is confidence?
“Not wearing equipnt and still beating you to a pulp, that’s confidence!”
Wow!
Screams from the surrounding girls and boys filled the air.
At the sa ti, the three of them also heard angry roars coming from the players’ area…
The three of them suddenly wore bitter smiles and looked helpless. The Octopus Prince had spoken his mind; should they wear their equipnt or not?
If they put it on, it would be a live admission of defeat, a face-losing event witnessed by thousands.
If they didn’t wear it, and continued to bare it all, they might salvage so dignity.
So, the three of them stopped getting dressed and even had the cheek to strike bodybuilder poses, showing off their muscles.
Then they heard the Octopus Prince shout, “Co on, let’s give our three confident players a barrage of comnts! Yes, comnts, your words will float in the air above us!”
The next mont, countless words appeared before the three n’s eyes.
“Ouch, is this Xun Long? I don’t see any dragon. Seems like we need to search thoroughly, could it be too small?”
“Tsk tsk, Xu Tiecheng is really sturdy, he’s bigger than the other two.”
“Tsk tsk, Black Storm, so tiny.”
The trio’s faces turned dark instantly, and they thought furiously, “Damn it, what are you looking at?!”
…
Yi Zheng spit out a mouthful of water and burst into laughter, “These three guys are definitely famous now, hahaha…”
After a few minutes of commotion, the Octopus Prince spoke again: “After witnessing the most arrogant three, let’s introduce the fourth seed player! From Groundhog City, Madam Xunyang!”
Finally, the spotlight shifted from the three of them. They breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted; they no longer needed to “sell their at” in front of the whole country, an experience that was truly agonizing.
However, they soon realized that they were surrounded by countless pairs of angry eyes; those were the gazes of other contestants.
The three of them were not cowards; facing such stares, they held their heads high in confrontation, a posture that said, “I’m bare-assed and I look down on you; if you disagree, bring it on.”
As a result, even before the fight had started, the atmosphere in the venue was already fraught with tension.
Elsewhere, the spotlight fell on a middle-aged beauty dressed in a white fox fur coat. She was Madam Xunyang from Groundhog City, one of the twelve Royal Cities. Her features were exquisite, her body curvaceous, and her deanor languid, as if she was always lounging in bed, utterly captivating.
Under the spotlight, she smiled slightly at everyone, “Madam Xunyang is just here to broaden her horizons. Dear young n and ladies, please don’t be too rough with .”
Her lazy voice and soul-stirring expression imdiately sparked a chorus of wolf whistles from the audience.
The loudest cheer ca from the Octopus Prince: “Awoo—!”
After the howl, the Octopus Prince called out, “It’s a sha I’m not a man, otherwise I would definitely pursue you fiercely, hahaha… Next up! From Groundhog City…”
One by one, the players were dragged out by the Octopus Prince for introductions. He truly only introduced the seeded players. Generally, he introduced just one person from each major city! Only in very exceptional cities did he introduce two, or even three people.
Among them were Gang Leaders from guilds, leaders of small groups, powerful lone wolves, and those blessed by Lady Luck.
And the strength of these people was recognized as formidable in their local areas.
Therefore, everyone accepted this without any objections.
When it ca to Vermilion Bird City, surprisingly, the person the Octopus Prince introduced was a na almost forgotten by everyone—Luo Kang!
