C689 Can't Beat?
Normally, this place was sparsely populated, but today, it was filled with black masses of people. In addition, there were streams of light and the sound of breaking air appearing in the distance, as well as an unending stream of people gathering here.
In less than an hour, there were already several hundred people gathered in the incomparably wide mountain peak's plaza. Moreover, the number of people was still increasing.
"My god."
"What happened today?"
"Normally, there aren't that many people. Could it be that someone wants to enter the Life and Death Arena?" The two guards looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
The Life and Death Arena had not been opened for several years, but once it was opened, it meant the death of one's life.
There was an accepted bottom line rule in Dagan Academic Palace, which was that both teacher and student were not allowed to kill each other, but this life and death arena was an exception. All those who ascended the life and death arena to fight, they had to press the bloody handprint on the life and death contract ahead of time. Once they ascended the stage, without the interference of a teacher level character, life and death would be decided.
So, unless there was a grudge that could not be resolved by the heavens, no one would be willing to come up onto the Life and Death Stage to duel with someone. He remembered that the last time the life and death arena opened, he was still one of the two brilliant geniuses in the Palace of Education. Because he liked a girl at the same time, so he had to decide on his life and death, that battle was simply earth-shattering, and all sorts of horrifying techniques and techniques appeared one after another.
"If we want to fight to the death, then please open the life and death arena." Yuwen Wu came in front of the two guards and said expressionlessly. Behind him followed a pale-faced Qi Tianming and quite a few West Campus students.
"To open the Life and Death Arena, I must press the bloody handprint."
The two guards frowned. Their guess had been confirmed, but the two of them had no intention of stopping. As long as both sides agreed to participate, they were only responsible for opening the Life and Death Arena.
As the guard's voice faded, two words of contract abruptly appeared out of nowhere.
"Sure."
Yuwen Wu glanced at it and pressed his palm without hesitation. He then looked at Lu Chen. His mouth curved into a provocative smile.
"Lu Chen, don't press."
"If you really press it, then …" Lu Qiaoer wanted to say something but hesitated. Once the Life and Death Contract was pressed down, then Lu Chen and Yuwen Wu would be in a life-and-death situation. Even if they failed and were killed, no one else was allowed to interfere.
"Don't be rash." Yao Jie shook his head at him.
"Lu Chen."
Bu Zhan and Lee Mubai also looked worried, afraid that something would happen to him.
"I'm fine."
Lu Chen smiled at them and prepared to press his handprint.
"Lu Chen."
At this moment, a clear voice sounded.
Hearing this, Zhou Tie turned around and saw Third Prince, Yin Zhi, Wu Tie, and the others. Liu Tie also came with them, and they were all well-known figures in the East District. In particular, Third Prince, Yin Zhi, was an influential figure in the Palace, which made many people cast sidelong glances at them.
"Third Prince." Yuwen Wu's expression turned cold and a trace of fear could be seen in his eyes.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" His voice sounded very gentle and pleasant. Although it was a little low, it gave people a feeling of being bathed in the spring wind. It seemed that even the scorching air had become cooler.
"We heard about it."
"Someone is looking for trouble with you, right? Leave this kind of person to us. "
"Why do you want to enter the Life and Death Arena with him?" Ao Hong patted his chest. His gaze inadvertently swept over Yuwen Wu, and his tone carried unfriendly intent.
"That's right."
"What Earth Rank expert? Even if we can't help you, if we let Third Prince personally take action, he probably won't be able to take the consequences." Suen Zhongda also said angrily.
Although he had a lot of prejudice against Lu Chen, his impression of the former improved by quite a bit after the trip of Great Fantasy Stage.
"Third Prince, what is the meaning of this?"
"This is a personal grudge between me and him. Could it be that your West Campus is planning to bully the less with the more you have?" Hearing this, Yuwen Wu no longer maintained his silence. He didn't care much about Zhang Hongru and the others, but Third Prince and Yin Zhi were definitely unfathomable. Although this prince had never made a move before, Yuwen Wu was not an ordinary student.
If he made a move, even he wasn't confident that he could block it.
"Yuwen Wu, Lu Chen is my friend. You making things difficult for him is making things difficult for me." Third Prince, Yin Zhi smiled. Although he seemed to be smiling, in Yuwen Wu's eyes, it was very cold.
Although he looked kind, he had a natural might that was not angry nor intimidating. As a member of the imperial family, Third Prince's talent and strength were not limited to what he appeared to be. Otherwise, how could he become a thorn in the eyes of the powerful First Prince?
Yuwen Wu's face sank. If Third Prince and Yin Zhi were determined to interfere in this matter, he really wouldn't be able to solve it.
"There have been rumors saying that Third Prince admires Lu Chen. It seems like he is not lying."
"With Third Prince's support, Lu Chen probably won't be able to win this life-and-death duel."
… ….
Upon seeing this, many of the surrounding students began to whisper.
"Lu Chen, Yuwen Wu has offended you. As long as you open your mouth, I can help you teach him a good lesson."
"You don't need to go up the life and death arena to fight him." Third Prince, Yin Zhi said in a deep voice in front of Yuwen Wu.
"Great."
"With Third Prince here, there should be no problem." Lu Qiaoer's tensed heart loosened. If Lu Chen really went up on the life and death arena to fight with Yuwen Wu, it wouldn't be much of a win for her.
Not only Lu Qiaoer, but also Yao Jie and Senior Brother Bu Zhan Di also let out a sigh of relief.
"Third Prince, no matter what, I'm still a member of West Campus, aren't you a little hurt that you're doing this?" Yuwen Wu frowned and his face turned green.
"Amity? What does that count as in my eyes?" Third Prince, Yin Zhi, smiled and said in a domineering and forceful manner.
"Third Prince is Third Prince. The words he said were so domineering." Suddenly, a faint laughter was heard.
"Hmm?"
"Azure Sun?"
Third Prince and Yin Zhi frowned when they saw the person's figure.
"West Campus's Martial Genius Qingyang is also here!"
"He is an expert who is ranked 65th in Earth Rank. His ranking is even higher than Yuwen Wu's!"
"I heard that he has quite a deep friendship with Yuwen Wu, and that he is a loyal supporter of the First Prince."
"If he teamed up with Yuwen Wu, even if Third Prince Yin Zhi showed up, it would not end well."
… ….
Qingyang had a slender figure and his hair was loose on his shoulders. He didn't look messy at all. On the contrary, he appeared exceptionally handsome. His entire body exuded an arrogant and unruly aura.
"For the sake of this kid, Third Prince wants to deal with the people from our West Campus? Aren't you afraid of being criticized?" Qingyang sneered and stared at Third Prince and Yin Zhi. Even if he was facing a prince, he did not show the slightest bit of fear and had a lot of confidence.
