Chapter 475 - Making valuable cannon fodder
On the surface, it seemed that the Frigid Moon Merchant Guild held a huge advantage.
Of the Cold Moon City's four great forces, the Frigid Moon Merchant Guild was faintly number one. In addition to being number one in the previous tournament and having the advantage in resources over the past ten years, it had allowed the Frigid Moon Merchant Guild to have even more resources and the ability to invite even more outstanding people to assist them. This was especially so for this year, when there was the Spirit Demon Su Lin.
From the moment Lin Qi had changed his mind, it could be seen.
"Elder Brother Feng, tell me, what would it be like if you entered the battle solemnly and ended it at the very end?" Wang Hao said with a faint smile.
"Heh heh, I'm not too sure either. I have to ask the person concerned." Feng Yuming snickered.
"Heh heh." The seven people behind him also laughed softly.
Other than Feng Yuchen, even though the six of them did not know how powerful Wang Hao was, they could tell from Feng Yuming's attitude towards him that he was not any weaker than Feng Yuming.
Naturally, they also hoped for the Feng Family to get first place. The more resources a clan had, the more they would get.
There were a total of thirty-six people from all four directions, and they were all on alert. The atmosphere around the battle stage gradually became stifling.
Although the spectators watched from afar, they could feel the oppressive atmosphere.
Suddenly, Su Lin from the Cold Moon Merchant Guild jumped onto the stage, and in that moment, the noisy surroundings instantly became quiet.
The four forces had a history of more than a thousand years in the Cold Moon City. They had already perfected the rules for the once-a-decade competition, so only thirty-six people would be participating. The first place representative in the tournament would be the one to explain the rules to the audience before the battle.
Su Lin's beautiful eyes flickered as she scanned the surroundings, and said in a clear voice: "This competition rules are the same as previous years, whoever perseveres till the end will be first, and with this, the final rankings will decide the resources allocated to the Cold Moon City ten years from now, including a high grade spirit vein. The first will be forty percent, the second will be thirty percent, and the third will be twenty percent, and the bottom ten percent!"
"In the first battle, we, the Frigid Moon Merchant Guild, will be the first to choose our opponent. In the second battle, the one being challenged will be the one to choose his opponent, and so on."
"The one being challenged can give up. If you give up, then follow the directions below to ascend to become the challenger. If all four of you give up, then the remaining candidates will all go up on the stage and begin the free-for-all."
"Do any of you have any objections?"
"No objections."
"No objections."
"No objections."
Nie Chen, Dan Tian Hao, and Feng Yuming, the three of them stated their positions one after another.
"Good!" I represent the Cold Moon Merchant Guild and announce that the competition has officially begun! " Su Lin bellowed and disappeared from the stage.
At the same time, a figure from the Cold Moon Merchant Guild jumped onto the stage. This person was tall and sturdy, and his feet landed on the stage with a thunderous sound.
"Tie Zhan!" The eyes of the crowd all flashed. Many people knew of him. He was one of the strongest contenders in this competition.
The Cold Moon Merchant Guild had sent him out right from the beginning, and it was obvious that they wanted to go straight to the point and demonstrate their prowess to the other three families.
Tie Zhan's eyes widened as he looked at Feng Family on the opposite side. He raised his arm that was as thick as an adult's thigh, flipped over his palm, hooked his index finger, and laughed: "Young Master Ming, who did you send to die first!"
Wang Hao could not help but laugh. Was the Cold Moon Merchant Guild looking for a beating impatiently?
If he lost the first battle and was still one of the strongest candidates, he didn't know how the members of the Cold Moon Merchant Guild would react.
I really want to see it!
"Elder Brother Feng, why don't I go and get some good news, and give the Cold Moon Merchant Guild a slap on the face as well." Wang Hao chuckled.
However, Feng Yuming rejected him, "That's not appropriate, we cannot win this battle."
Wang Hao frowned: "Why?"
"Balance!" Feng Yuming explained: "Tie Zhan is one of the strongest people this time, if he loses in the first battle, the three families will definitely work together to target us."
"Eh? Actually I don't mind, but I will still listen to you, Elder Brother Feng. " Wang Hao shrugged.
Feng Yuming turned around and looked at two of the six people behind him, and said: "Yu Chen, the two of you will have to guess your punches. No matter who goes up, there's no need to force anything.
According to strength, cannon fodder were definitely the weakest. However, it was not easy for his little brother to get the chance to join in and become cannon fodder. This would be letting down his hard work for the past half month.
However, Feng Yuming could not be too selfish, so he decided to let the other weaker person and Feng Yuchen guess.
The person who was chosen, did not dare to get angry, and could only laugh bitterly and fight with Feng Yuchen.
In the end, he lost. He was the first one to go out and fight against one of the strongest, Tie Zhan, and he was destined to become cannon fodder.
He took a deep breath and jumped onto the battle stage. His momentum surged as he instantly entered his peak state. Even if it was cannon fodder, he would still be valuable cannon fodder.
"Hehe, make your move!" Otherwise, you won't have a chance! "
Tie Zhan grinned, took a step forward, and slowly walked towards his opponent.
At this moment, countless pairs of eyes landed on the two of them. No one doubted the outcome of the battle, but everyone was curious, what kind of method would Tie Zhan obtain victory?
How many moves could the man sent by the Feng Family last under Tie Zhan?
Did Tie Zhan's words mean that after one move, the Feng Family would lose?
On the stage, with every step Tie Zhan took, a loud noise was heard, stimulating the opponent's mind.
Seeing Tie Zhan's twice the size of himself, the people from the Feng Family couldn't help but perspire on the back of their palms. They were so nervous that they felt like they were going to die, he felt like he was facing a huge mountain that was pressing down on him, an unstoppable mountain.
However, his self-esteem caused him to be unwilling to admit defeat just like that.
In any case, he had to make a move!
He mustered his courage and put on the Divine Weapon Gloves with both hands. Concentrating his true energy, he focused the air whirl on his hands, and when Tie Zhan took his tenth step, he suddenly swung both of his arms, striking out with both of his palms.
Hu hu!
The cold surrounding him surged, forming two ice tornadoes that rushed towards Tie Zhan.
This palm strike was more than twice as strong as the fist strike Feng Yuchen threw at him during their sparring half a month ago.
Moreover, wherever the cold wind passed, the surrounding air would constantly condense, strengthening the might and momentum of the cold wind.
Tie Zhan still walked slowly, ignoring the two cold winds that were blowing towards him, as if they were only two ordinary breezes that were about to brush past his face.
"Seal it for me!" When the people from the Feng Clan saw this, they seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope and excitedly shouted.
The instant his voice fell, the cold wind swept over to Tie Zhan's body, and clear sounds immediately sounded. Everyone saw that a layer of frost quickly condensed on Tie Zhan's body.
"Tie Zhan was actually frozen?" Many people revealed looks of surprise, they were all Aurous Core stage and below, with their limited vision, they thought that Tie Zhan was going to lose!
Because his body was sealed in ice and the cold energy entered his body, it was easy to cause his blood to stagnate, affecting his combat strength. Even if he wasn't afraid of the cold energy, he would still create a temporary gap to give his opponent an opportunity.
The person who Feng Han was fighting would naturally not miss this great opportunity. He immediately rushed out, and a long blade appeared in his hand.
