Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1152 - 212: A Familiar Feeling

Not far away, there stood two people.

The two people looked exactly alike, but one had skin as white as paper, while the other was as dark as charcoal.

One was tall and slim, the other stout and short; they looked neither male nor female, very yin-yang eccentric.

The one mocking Ye Lingyue and Si Xiaochun was the white-skinned tall one, speaking in a pinched voice, yin-yang eccentric.

The two did not sign a Life and Death Contract, looking like seasoned veterans.

The Life and Death Contract is permanently effective, only new participants in the arena tournament need to sign it.

"How do you two talk like that?"

Si Xiaochun, young and spirited, flared up upon hearing this, but was held back by Ye Lingyue.

"It’s the Female and Male Killers, they were the champions of the last underground arena competition, right?"

"Not just the last one, they were champions the one before too. I’ve heard they’re a dual cultivation couple, practicing some evil skill, becoming what they are today, neither male nor female."

"Weren’t they heading to the Central Plains? How did they come back?"

"I heard it’s because the prize for this tournament is as high as fifty thousand spirit stones, they came back just for this."

"These two love bullying newcomers, those two rookies better not stupidly crash into them."

There were contestants who knew the two, and started discussing.

It seemed the others were veterans, Ye Lingyue hadn’t figured out the rules of the underground arena competition and didn’t want to clash with anyone, so she shook her head at Si Xiaochun.

"What’s all the noise about? Sign the Life and Death Contract to participate in the tournament, otherwise, get out all of you."

At this moment, Qin Dong came out with a few people, speaking fiercely.

Seeing Qin Dong, Ye Lingyue pulled Si Xiaochun back a step.

The Female and Male Killers, upon seeing Qin Dong, restrained their arrogant expressions and called out.

"Young Master Dong."

The Female and Male Killers, before heading to the Central Plains, were regulars at the underground arena competition, and they were acquainted with Qin Dong.

Ye Lingyue noticed a few people behind Qin Dong holding several boxes, one of which emitted a familiar spiritual power fluctuation.

Could it be the Sky Wolf Stick... Ye Lingyue’s eyes darkened under the Evil Armor, and she exchanged a look with Si Xiaochun.

The two still signed the Life and Death Contract.

Gradually, others also signed the Life and Death Contract.

"Wu Wu Team, draw your lottery, remember, once the draw is made, the match is considered started. Unless you die in battle or are unable to fight, you cannot leave."

Saying this, a black box was produced for Ye Lingyue and Si Xiaochun to draw from.

Just like Ye Lingyue and others, the other male and female pairs also drew their lottery.

Ye Lingyue casually grabbed a slip.

On it was written "Gold 36-Heaven." It’s unclear what it specifically meant.

But just as Ye Lingyue wanted to inquire, the lottery shimmered with light, and the underground bank vanished before the two.

The previous crowd instantly disappeared.

Hundreds of contestants, as if waking from a dream, found themselves in a luxurious circular arena.

Above the arena was the sky, it was noon, and a splendid sun was in the sky.

The arena was as big as two training grounds, and as soon as the contestants appeared, the whole arena thundered with cheers.

Countless whistles and screams were deafening.

Nearly ten thousand masked spectators sat on the stands on either side of the arena.

These were viewers from different regions of the Ancient Nine Provinces, their true identities unknown, but with the underground arena’s ticket priced at fifty intermediate spirit stones each, it can be seen these individuals were either rich or noble.

"Ling, look quickly."

Si Xiaochun exclaimed, raising his head to look at the sky.

In the sky, about a hundred meters up, there were five transparent stages made of crystal stone.

The five stages were closely connected.

Each was marked with the large characters Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth.

The underground arena competition was divided into five different divisions, named Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. To increase excitement, all five stages’ matches occurred simultaneously.

Moreover, they designed transparent stages so every move of the participants could be clearly seen.

Admittedly, the underground arena competition prepared by Heroic Society was even more spectacular than what Ye Lingyue had seen in Yan City.

However, Ye Lingyue had a feeling, always felt the mode or holding style of the underground arena competition was somewhat similar to Yan City’s.

But Ye Lingyue had no time to think more at the moment.

Ye Lingyue and Si Xiaochun’s "Wu Wu Team" happened to be in the Gold Division’s 36th position to appear, matching the opponent of Gold 36-Earth.

If following the normal match routine, it would likely take until at least the third or even the fourth day to take their turn.

"Everyone, please, those who have drawn Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth-Heaven, and Earth lottery come forward, the first round of matches is about to begin. The remaining contestants, please enter the Waiting Area, there is a specific waiting area for contestants, you may choose to rest in the waiting area or watch the matches. Until the match is over and the second round match list is decided, you may not leave."

The first round of the underground arena competition had no strict time limit; until a champion emerged, the match would continue.

For both contestants and spectators, this was a war of attrition.

Ye Lingyue and Si Xiaochun could only follow the crowd into the so-called Waiting Area.

Unlike the competition area, the contestant’s waiting area was a huge room.

Inside the room, there were simple isolation rooms, each contestant could move into the corresponding room according to the lottery in their hand.

On the south and north walls of the waiting area, there were two large inset audio mirror arrays on the walls.

The arrays clearly reflected the scene inside the arena, and even the lively roars could be heard distinctly.

At this time, those contestants had no mind to rest, all gathering in front of the two mirrored arrays, as the first group of contestants had already stepped onto the sky stage.

The match hadn’t started yet when there was suddenly a commotion in the venue.

It turned out that from inside the arena, the clattering sound of carriage wheels was suddenly heard.

Fifty to sixty horse-drawn carriages covered in black cloth drove in.

With the black cloth pulled aside, the first carriage’s door opened.

A chilling hissing sound was heard, and from the carriage, slithered out snakes as thick as wrists in various colors.

The second carriage also opened, and with a flash of yellow shadow, a flame lion jumped out.

The third carriage, the fourth... all the dozens of carriages revealed fierce Spiritual Beasts.

Each Spiritual Beast had been starved for nearly half a month when delivered to the arena, and now they were ravenous, eyes shining green, they raised their heads and roared hungrily towards the five sky stages.
