Chapter 1799 - 1800: Waving Flags and Shouting Cheers
Chapter 1799 - 1800: Waving Flags and Shouting Cheers
Another reason is that both parties on the arena are very powerful cultivators, and even the impact of Northern Spiritual Energy is hard to bear.
At this time, the people from the Watanabe Family also arrived, with quite a number of them, filling up the entire stands. Many were waving flags, shouting with excitement.
One must admit that their aura is very strong, but the Hoshino Family is not showing any weakness either, with just as many flags and waves of shouts and drum beats.
No matter the final result, they cannot lose in terms of aura. People have also arrived at the judges' podium.
These people vary in age, with many being elderly with white beards.
Ling Zhenfei knows that these are the Ichinin Arena representatives.
Someone next to Ling Zhenfei explained that these are the judges, belonging to the ninja guild, which is the most authoritative law enforcement department of the ninja guild.
Regardless of their strength, they only adhere to one principle of absolute fairness and impartiality.
The rules of the match have been used for hundreds of years, so naturally there is nothing to be said about it.
At this time, the representatives of both sides of this duel, Hoshino Yuji and Watanabe Kazushi, walked towards the judges' podium.
Ling Zhenfei's Divine Sense followed them to hear what they were talking about.
Hoshino Yuji walked leisurely, naturally trying to appear more imposing, while Watanabe Kazushi seemed more relaxed.
The two arrived at the judges' podium almost simultaneously, and then a white-haired elder stood up.
"Welcome, Family Heads."
The two quickly saluted, and Hoshino Yuji said, "Great Judge Kato, why have you come?"
Watanabe Kazushi also said, "Yes, how could we trouble you with such a minor matter?"
It's clear that Kato is a well-respected judge. Although his hair and beard are white, his speech is still very clear.
"As a judge, I shouldn't speak much, but both of your families are the biggest families in Bin Qi Wu, and you once had a very good relationship. Why has the relationship deteriorated to this extent?
Regardless of which side wins today's duel, it will be a great loss for us in Bin Qi Wu. Can you possibly cease fighting and reconcile?"
Watanabe Kazushi laughed and said, "Great Judge Kato, our relationship has long since broken down. I disdain associating with such shameless people. I do this to drive them out of Bin Qi Wu."
Hoshino Yuji said, "I'm not happy being in the same place as such despicable people, so today's battle is inevitable."
Great Judge Kato saw the situation was irreconcilable and did not continue trying to persuade them.
Great Judge Kato said, "Since that is the case, I have nothing more to say. Let's begin."
"Let's begin. I can already feel the joy of victory." Watanabe Kazushi said coldly.
Hoshino Yuji laughed and said, "Just make sure you don't get embarrassed later."
Watanabe Kazushi laughed and said, "Hoshino Yuji, don't think that marrying off your daughter yesterday brought back a savior.
Honestly, don't you know what kind of person Watanabe Goryu is, where he studied before? Do you think he would lose to someone like Ling Zhenfei, who comes from a wild background?"
Hoshino Yuji said, "Whether or not he will lose to me, now nobody can say for sure. We'll see shortly."
At this time, Great Judge Kato said, "Don't argue here; who wins or loses we will know shortly, and since you understand the rules, then sign it."
Great Judge Kato had already prepared the necessary items to sign.
At Ichinin Arena, deaths or injuries always happen during the matches, so this time the signed item is a disclaimer, stating that once on the arena, life or death is not accounted for.
Since the two families are at odds, anything can happen on the arena, and they cannot ensure they can control their strength.
Therefore, fate dictates life and death.
Both individuals picked up their parts to take a look.
At this moment, Great Judge Kato started speaking about the rules.
"Although you know the rules, I still need to state that this competition consists of three matches in total.
Two out of three wins, and everyone knows the victory standards. Also, you may compete on stage, but don't tarnish the principles of our ninjas."
The two finished reading the statement, and each picked up a pen to sign their names on it.
The black and white writing clearly states that once on the arena, life and death are dictated by fate. If you kill someone, it's their own fault.
In the world of cultivators, everything respects the strongest. Everyone knows challenging others is dangerous, yet many cultivators still engage in challenges for fame.
At this moment, Hoshino Yuji and Watanabe Kazushi have started returning to their respective sides.
Ling Zhenfei knows the challenge is about to begin.
Great Judge Kato also stood up. Once Hoshino Yuji returned, it was time for Great Judge Kato to speak.
This procedure was informed to Ling Zhenfei by the people of the Hoshino Family.
Sure enough, when Hoshino Yuji and Watanabe Kazushi returned, Great Judge Kato began speaking.
"Alright, everyone, please quiet down. I am the judge for this duel; my name is Kato Taka.
This duel is between the Hoshino Family and the Watanabe Family. I believe everyone is very familiar with them. Both families are very famous in Bin Qi Wu.
Their dispute has arisen from various reasons, and this time they have decided to resolve it with a duel at Ichinin Arena. We ninjas always value winners as kings.
Since both have made this decision, let's respect them. Now that the hour has arrived, if no one objects, I will announce the start of the duel. Does anyone have anything to say?"
Great Judge Kato asked the audience if anyone has anything to say. Originally, it was just a casual inquiry, usually with no response, although sometimes someone might say a few words.
Sometimes a mediator might come up and try to intervene, but given the situation, a few words wouldn't easily reconcile things.
However, at this moment, suddenly someone shouted loudly.
"I have something to say."
As the voice spoke, Ling Zhenfei suddenly soared from his seat, flying towards the arena in the distance.
In mid-air, his feet continuously condensed Northern Spiritual Energy, allowing Ling Zhenfei to walk effortlessly in the air.
With each step, he progressed a distance forward until he landed on the arena.
Ling Zhenfei was holding a large bag, and it was unclear what was inside.
Actually, Ling Zhenfei had thought ahead and designed this, knowing the judge would say such a line, hence he stepped up at this moment.
