Chapter 20
Li Fang's clothing and other stuff have already been shifted to his new room.
Inner disciples of the sect recieve their own rooms. The room provided to Li Fang is far bigger than his previous one.
Just as he entered his new room he found a pamplet on the ground.
[DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKE TO BE WORLD RENOWNED ?]
[IF YOU THOUGHT SO THEN VISIT OUR UNDERGROUND ARENA ON THE FOLLOWING ADDRESS]
This is more of a invitation letter than advertisement, the guy who slipped this under Li Fang's door must have trust on his information about Li Fang, that he won't report this to any higher up in the sect.
Underground Arena is a lot nastier than the sect's arena, in there one can beat their opponents to death with no holding back.
They can challenge anyone they want and the cultivation doesn't matter here, even a mortal can be challenged those who are at the peak of this world.
After becoming inner disciple Li Fang was planning on spending his entire day in his room if not in wilderness, but this changed things.
Founding it fun decided to wait for night which is when the arena open up and then he sneaked out of the sect as always without getting detected.
The location provided wasn't too far from the sect.
It was an old graveyard in the middle of wilderness.
When Li Fang arrived there he found an old man drunk on his booze. He was sitting on his chair, drinking and ignoring Li Fang's presence.
Even though Li Fang haven't interacted with many people, yet he was able to read people based on their body language.
Li Fang knew if he questioned the drunkard then he will be ignored. So he decided to go for his weakness, his booze.
Li Fang quickly grabbed his booze and took 10 steps back, with speed the old man wasn't able to catch glance at.
Finding his booze on Li Fang's hand, the old man didn't said a single word and closed the distance between him and Li Fang instantly.
He then try to grab his booze back but Li Fang dodged him and run behind him.
The old man then tried to turn away, only finding that Li Fang is now grabbing his back and hanging there.
He tried to grab Li Fang by taking his hand behind his back, but Li Fang dodged it all leaving the drunkard breathless.
"Who are you ??????" After catching his breath he finally asked Li Fang.
Li Fang then jumped from his back, landing in front of him "I'm here for the arena" he said while showing the pamplet he recieved.
"Couldn't you told me this before ?" The drunkard said.
"And be humiliated by your ignorance ? I prefer not to." Li Fang finally passed him his booze back.
"You have a sharp tongue kid and a sharp brain as well strength to back it, you have a bright future."
He then finally took him to the entrance, which was a grave. The old drunkard opened it using the key he had and showed the stairs leading to the arena.
"Here you can enter the arena from here"
Li Fang gave him a silver sycee "For your trouble."
"Hohoho you really know how to win heart." The old drunkard said with a wink.
Finding it weird Li Fang quickly entered the arena.
After going down the stairs he finally get there.
Li Fang can hear the cheers and chatters from the very entrance of the arena. People betting and losers getting killed for other's entertainment. Truly an underground arena.
Turned out there are also a little market here where people sell all kind of stuffs from legal to not so legal.
After wandering around a little he finally walked to the main arena, there was a guy standing in luxurious clothes.
"Are you lost little boy ?" Seeing Li FANG he asked.
"I'm here to participate." Li FANG showed him the pamplet.
"Such a shame, such a waste of life." He didn't even tried to warn him and just signed him up "Wait for your turn, it will be announced. Till then go ahead and enjoy whatever you love doing or eat your favorite food while you can, there are plenty of food stalls." He said while pointing towards food stalls.
He decided to food stalls a visit. When he get there he found 2 faces he never thought of finding here in a place like this. They were Li Hua and Xu Yan.
"What are you two doing here ?" Li Fang asked them.
"That's what we should be asking you, but I'm guessing we are here for the same reason as you." Li Hua replied while Xu Yan just keep looking at Li Fang.
"And how come you two know each other ?" Li Fang asked.
"We met here few months ago, and later turned out we were in the same sect." Xu Yan said.
"I see, so when's your turn to fight ?" Li Fang asked.
"Our turn to what ? We are here to learn from real fighters, why would we ever get into this arena knowing some top tier psycho killer will be here to calm his urge if killing ? And wait a minute why did you thought we were are to fight when we were are for same reas—" he couldn't complete his words as announcer announced.
"LI FANG WHEREVER YOU ARE, GET TO THE ARENA IT'S YOUR TURN NOW!"
This left both Li Hua and Xu Yan's face paler than ever.
"I never said I was here to learn by watching others, I was getting bored so I thought I will enter and fight." Li Fang said "Anyway I should go, it's my turn now. And since you two were nice to me let me give you an advice, bet all your money on me, you won't regret this decision.
With this Li Fang left for arena, leaving both Li Hua and Xu Yan in shock.
