As for Luo Lan, after leaving the airport with Fang Li, they headed straight for a huge circular building. There are people coming and going on the street, wearing all kinds of clothes. This shows the openness and tolerance of King's Landing.

"You, Luobei, are not as peaceful as you imagined." Fang Li teased him.

"Well, my second brother and Sister Xue are both very utilitarian people, and the Lord of Junlin City is a fat man with a lot of power. They will definitely fight for it at all costs." Luo Lan shook her head and sighed. .

"Then who will you support?" Fang Li asked curiously.

Luo Lan thought for a moment, then stretched out a finger and shook it.

"?" A question mark appeared on Fang Li's head. What does it mean, the first one? Still not telling me?

"I don't support it!" Seeing this, Luo Lan rolled her eyes helplessly, "I'm too lazy to get involved in their struggle for power. The right way is to practice hard and enter the Firmament Star Academy."

Hearing this, Fang Li showed surprise in his eyes and gave Luo Lan a thumbs up: "As expected of you!"

The two of them walked and soon arrived in front of a huge circular building. This huge building was obviously very popular. The entrance was already surrounded by people, and the people queuing up almost reached the main road. Got it!

"There are too many people here." Fang Li was a little surprised. This is a gladiatorial arena! It's not a food court or an auction house, so why are there so many people? Is this Luobei's martial arts so fierce?

Luo Lan looked forward intently, then thought about what day it was, and suddenly realized: "It seems that you came at the right time. These two days happen to be a unique festival in Luobei - the Gladiator Festival. Every time at this time, gladiatorial games are held. The rewards for fighting in the arena will be extremely generous, and there will be royal family watching, so there will be a lot of people."

As he said that, Luo Lan had a fiery look in his eyes. He rubbed his palms and said, "I haven't participated in this gladiatorial festival for a long time. I didn't expect that we would meet up with you this time. I'm going to play too."

"Hey, is our third prince coming too?" Fang Li chuckled, "You pretty boy, you must not be beaten badly, right?"

"Who are you talking about?" Luo Lan raised her eyebrows and rolled up her sleeves.

"What, let's have a fight?" Fang Li stretched out his finger and tickled Luo Lan, with a smile on his face.

"Hmph!" Luo Lan snorted and said, "Come just as you are, I'm afraid you won't make it! You'd better hope not to be assigned to the same group as this prince later!"

"Otherwise, hum~"

Fang Li smiled, his eyes full of curiosity about the gladiatorial festival, and his eyes filled with high-spirited fighting spirit. I haven't had a good fight since I was promoted! Why not take this opportunity and have a good fight!

The two of them wanted to participate in the gladiatorial fight, but it wasn't as simple as just talking about it. They lined up directly in front of the arena, ready to sign up, and then, they would become a blockbuster!

As for why there is no VIP passage, according to Luo Lan, this is a rule set by the royal family. In competitive events such as gladiatorial games that rely on one's own abilities, princes are equal to common people. There is no such thing as royal privileges. Even if they are The Emperor of Luobei is coming, so he has to line up obediently.

The two of them slowly moved forward following the dark crowd. The registration took only an hour.

It took a full hour for them to queue up. Then, when the registration officer who registered them saw Luo Lan coming to register, he inevitably exclaimed: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince?!"

This exclamation immediately caused a circle of exclamations around him. The other registration officers all looked over, and those who were signing up around them all had excited faces!

"It's actually the third prince!"

"The Third Prince also came to line up to participate. It is true that all living beings are equal!"

"Let's be gentler later...don't offend the third prince."

"Wow, the third prince is so handsome!"

"······"

People around him looked sideways and exclaimed. After all, high-ranking members of the royal family like the Third Prince are really rare to see on weekdays. Such big shots rarely appear in public!

"We are all happy about the gladiatorial fight, everyone, come on!" Luo Lan turned around and bowed her hands to the people around her, smiled and greeted them, then took the registration officer's token and walked into the gladiatorial arena.

This guy was very coquettish and looked back as he walked, waving his hands behind him, causing cheers from behind. He glanced at Fang Li provocatively, which clearly meant: Look at my popularity, isn't it high?

Fang Li stared at him helplessly, and immediately reported his name to the registration officer. After one operation, the registration officer handed him a black token with "46" engraved on it.

After he took the token, he walked towards the arena. After entering, he discovered that the arena was not open-air, but had a cave inside.

First there was a staircase going down. After going down, there was a huge underground square. However, the square was now divided into countless areas. Above each area, there were glowing numbers hanging high, corresponding to the area.

Fang Li unfolded the power of his spiritual consciousness and explored upward through the ground above his head. He found that there were separate independent circular arenas above. There was a layer of light array around each arena, as well as corresponding stands and boxes. , quite advanced.

In this way, could the number on the token be the number of the group? First, the group will be divided into groups, and then the ones who stand out in the group will continue to compete? Just by watching, Fang Li probably guessed the competition system. It was a very simple competition system and easy to understand.

"Hey, which group are you in?" Luo Lan came to his side and asked.

"Forty-six, what about you?" Fang Li asked back.

"I'm thirty-eight." When Luo Lan heard this, he sighed with regret, "It seems that we can't make it in the first round."

"What kind of competition system is here? Group stage plus knockout?" Fang Li asked.

Luo Lan thought for a while and then replied: "First there is the group stage. Each group has sixteen people. They are divided into eight groups by drawing lots. The eight winners continue to draw lots until there is only one person left. That person will stand out from the group. , entering the second round.”

"The second round is a melee in the arena. A total of 640 people who win in the first round will enter the large arena of the arena. The melee in the arena will be based on how long they last. The one who persists to the end will be the champion."

"Challenge in the ring..." Fang Li's eyes flickered. This second round was actually interesting. He thought it was just an ordinary one-on-one elimination, but he didn't expect that the second round turned out to be such a big melee.

Melee is great! Only in muddy water can you fish.

Thinking of this, Fang Li's mouth seemed to reveal an evil smile.

"You...why do you smile so scary?" Luo Lan looked at that smile and suddenly felt a chill on her back. It's over. The little devil in this guy's heart won't be released, right?

"Ahem." Fang Li coughed lightly, and then said: "Thanks."

"Well, I'll go first." Luo Lan nodded, raised the token in his hand, and turned around to find Area 38.

Fang Li took another look at the token in his hand and went to find area No. 46. There were a total of 640 areas, which were randomly distributed. It was really easy for him to find them before he found No. 46.

There were already eight or nine people standing in that area. There was a big man holding his arms, with a fierce look on his face, and everyone else stayed away from him.

What surprised Fang Li was that he saw a petite girl who seemed to be only fourteen or fifteen years old. She looked around timidly with a pair of big eyes.

A girl like this is coming to participate? At this moment, Fang Li finally understood how powerful this martial style was! Among the nine people he detected with his spiritual consciousness, seven of them were at the peak of the Xuanmen realm, a one-person-day realm. However, there was no energy fluctuation on the girl's body, but there was a weak spiritual consciousness fluctuation.

The peak of spiritual realm? Or is it your first time entering the Little Soul Realm? A look of confusion flashed across Fang Li's eyes. He was a little unclear as to what level the girl's spiritual consciousness was at.

He restrained his energy, suppressed his aura to the peak of Xuanmen realm, and then walked in. The eyes of the nine people fell on him for a moment, and then moved away.

What Fang Li didn't notice was that when he came in, the girl glanced at him with a hint of panic in her eyes.

After a while, the remaining six people arrived one after another. After the last person arrived, the "46" above the area turned golden, and then a light curtain slowly rose up at the edge of the area, and there were faint formation fluctuations.

"There are spatial fluctuations, and there may be teleportation next." Fang Li felt it slightly and murmured.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, silver light suddenly lit up under everyone's feet, and then they were teleported directly to a ring. In the ring, besides them, there was another person wearing the official uniform of Luobei.

The man glanced at them indifferently, only paused slightly at Fang Li, and then said: "Since the people of Group 46 have arrived, let's start directly."

He stretched out his fingers and started clicking randomly.

"You, and you, the first game. The rest of the people are waiting, waiting in the stands!" The man directly ordered two people to come out, two peak Xuanmen realms, and then led the rest of the people to the stands.

The competition between the two peak Xuanmen realms began immediately.

Regarding the battle on the stage, Fang Li just glanced at it without paying much attention. He observed the performance of the other thirteen people. Except for the girl, the others were quite calm and seemed to have experienced many battles. Generations of formation.

Strange...is this girl's first time? Why does a petite little girl have to come here to fight for life and death? Fang Li had some doubts and curiosity in his eyes.

"Are you curious? Curious why she came to participate?" The official seemed to sense Fang Li's curiosity, stood beside him, and actually spoke.

"Senior, please give me some advice." Fang Li's eyes moved slightly and he said softly.
