Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 288: Chapter 287 First Battle!



He had the urge to kick Du Bai out of the team.

Forget it, if he couldn\'t cultivate his psychological strength, then he would have to build confidence through battle.

Just then, the iron door was pushed open. An Ape Demon walked in from the outside, "Let\'s go, it\'s time for the match."

When it entered and saw smiles still on the faces of Tang San and the others, it couldn\'t help but be surprised.

Which team wouldn\'t be solemn during their first group battle? There are many who can\'t exhibit their full strength on the battlefield. Some, clearly stronger than their opponents, still lose and die because they are frightened by the opponent\'s might.

At Grand Animal Fighting Arena, strength isn\'t the only factor for victory. Psychological quality, strength, tactics, skills, and determination are all key.

The battles here are the bloodiest, most brutal, and most real. They are even more dangerous than on the battlefield. On the battlefield, there\'s still a chance to flee, but in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena, there\'s no way out.

And in fact, is one really safe after determining luck? Obviously not entirely. After all, Du Bai\'s Heavenly Fox Transformation is only at the Fifth Stage, not the kind that can really stir the heavens and the earth. His judgments through Heavenly Fox Transformation have a certain accuracy, but that\'s without any other changes in luck interfering.

For the five members of Shrek squad, apart from Tang San, the others were more willing to believe at this moment, thereby immediately transforming their mindset. For them, it\'s like a kind of mental support. Thus, Heavenly Fox Transformation often brings not just luck, but also a component of confidence.

"Let\'s go!" Du Bai waved his hand expansively as if he was the captain and headed out first.

Gu Li grabbed his clothes and pulled him back, as Tang San and Wu Bingji already walked out with a smile.

Wu Bingji was at the forefront, followed by Tang San, then Cheng Zicheng, Gu Li, and Du Bai. Led by a staff member, the five, amidst the pervasive thick scent of blood, strode towards the battlefield they were about to confront.

It was only after a reminder from Tang San that the other four remembered to put on the masks they had prepared earlier, a necessary concealment for their identities.

With the "squeaking and creaking" sound, a hanging door was slowly raised, and the dim light brightened, causing the five people to squint involuntarily.

The slightly chilly air mixed with an even stronger smell of blood rushed toward them, followed by a deafening noise.

Yes, this is the Grand Animal Fighting Arena!

Tang San gently nudged Wu Bingji, who then realized and strode out boldly.

Thanks to the Purple Demon Eyes cultivated by everyone, their vision quickly recovered.

Tang San had been here before and even fought in this place. But this time, the feeling of arriving here was distinctly different from the last.

On the ground, there were many mottled and not yet dried bloodstains, and even some scattered "flesh pieces." The surrounding stands were packed without a single empty seat. The Grand Animal Fighting Arena was bustling no matter the time of day.

Although it was still morning, the ticket prices for the Grand Animal Fighting Arena varied at different times of the day, with the lowest prices in the morning and the highest at night. Correspondingly, the most exciting matches were generally held in the evening. For those who were short on funds yet craved excitement, choosing to watch the beast fights in the morning was indeed the perfect option.

As rookies, even though they were taking part in a team fight, the Shrek squad was scheduled to compete this morning. As long as they could secure a victory today, then, the following matches would all take place in the evening. Such was the status of team fights.

"The team fight is about to begin, let\'s get ready to taste the blood. Let\'s see the lineup of the two rookie teams participating in today\'s team fight." A huge wave of sound swept through the arena. This was the voice of the Grand Animal Fighting Arena\'s commentator.

"Ohhhhh, let\'s see, what do we have here? Humans, these are actually human vassals. They look so fresh and tasty. It\'s hard to imagine what kind of courage brought them here. I wonder if they\'ve already wet their pants. It\'s been a very long time since we saw a human team voluntarily join a team fight. It seems that today\'s match will end very quickly! So, everyone can now place their bets. How long will this match last? I think, perhaps, it will take just one minute to decide the outcome, hahaha."

Betting in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena was exceptionally unique. To ensure fairness and avoid manipulation, bets on team fights were not placed on the victory or defeat of the sides but on the duration of the match. For individual matches, bets were placed on the outcome.

Because in team fights, unless one wished to die, no one dared to throw the match, making the duration of the match the most realistic indicator. As for individual fights, the outcomes were relatively fairer and harder to manipulate.

The odds for betting on the time varied depending on the duration predicted. Betting for each match was only opened before it started, but for famous competitors, bets could be placed before the match and would continue up until the moment the match began.

"Let\'s take another look at the other team," the host\'s voice rose once again.

Indeed, when Tang San and his team appeared, their opponents had not yet shown up. In the Grand Animal Fighting Arena, the team with the stronger strength generally made their entrance later, creating a sense of pressure and a visual impact. It was clear that the Shrek squad was not favored to win.

The other side\'s huge gate slowly lifted, and one after another, towering figures strode out from within.

Compared to the human physique of Tang San and his teammates, the ground even seemed to tremble as these creatures walked out.

Leading the procession was a Monster, standing over eight meters tall with an incredibly sturdy build. Its long nose hung before its body like a giant hammer. Each step it took made the earth tremble, revealing its astonishing weight.

Elephant Demons!

Following it were more Elephant Demons, none shorter than five meters tall. All of them with an exceedingly powerful presence.

"Wow, what do I see? This is an Elephant Demon team. Could it be, could it be that our Grand Animal Fighting Arena is about to witness a team striving for a ten-win streak again? The leader, certainly a senior member of the Elephant Demon Clan, height represents its cultivation base. This one must have already reached the threshold of the Ninth Stage. With such strength, the humans are probably unable to break through its defense. I strongly suggest, strongly suggest, betting on one minute! Indeed, the one-minute pool has already been overwhelmed by bets. It really is, this match seems too unbalanced. The odds for the one-minute pool have reached ten to one. But even so, why do I feel a sense of sadness for the Grand Animal Fighting Arena? It looks like they\'re going to lose a lot of money today."

In normal circumstances, nobody would place bets on a one-minute duration, but without a doubt, the match\'s participants seemed too unevenly matched this time. Bets on one, three, and five minutes were all snapped up. Bets on durations longer than five minutes were almost nonexistent.

However, Tang San and his teammates felt different. As they had predicted, their opponents were brought by the Elephant Demon. The very Elephant Demon who had challenged them yesterday was among them, now looking at them with a cruel and ferocious expression.

When formulating tactics yesterday, they had concluded that if the opposition joined the battle, they would certainly bring strong reinforcements. After all, this was the most brutal team fight in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena. If an Elephant Demon wanted to survive three battles, it needed sufficient strength. The Elephant Demon that provoked them yesterday was only at the Seventh Stage in terms of power.
