Become a supporting role at the beginning of the fight

The two people fighting on the stone platform at this moment naturally knew what Xiao Fan said.

The fire attribute cultivator became more and more impatient. After all, he also knew that if he continued to delay, he would probably become a loser.

Thinking of this, he became more aggressive, hoping to use his own realm to defeat the thunder attribute cultivator as soon as possible.

However, the thunder attribute cultivator was careful from the beginning to create a situation that was favorable to him now. When he realized that the other party had discovered his intentions, he became even more cautious.

Even if his opponent occasionally showed some flaws and he was not sure of a counterattack, he still chose to play it safe.

Soon, the fighting spirit in the fire attribute cultivator's body was about to be exhausted. The thunder attribute cultivator, who had been suppressed and beaten, had a flash of light in his eyes, and took advantage of the moment when the opponent's fighting spirit could not connect, and took action instantly.

Being beaten for a long time is not only to delay time and consume the opponent's fighting spirit, but also to facilitate him to observe the opponent's moves and analyze weaknesses.

With his careful planning, his counterattack quickly bore fruit.

Although the fire attribute cultivator was unwilling to give in, he had to admit defeat under the opponent's series of attacks.

As one side surrendered, the formation in the stands stopped the fight between the two and sent them out of the stone platform.

After leaving the competition market, the fire attribute cultivator looked at his opponent with a hint of dissatisfaction, but then he restrained himself, snorted coldly, and left.

The thunder attribute cultivator held his head high and accepted the applause from the surrounding stands.

Yueyao looked at the two people on the field who were deciding the winner, and smiled at Xiao Fan: "You really guessed it right!"

"What do you mean by guessing? This is fine in my eyes!"

Xiao Fan raised his chin with a haughty expression on his face, which made Yue Yao very amused.

"By the way, why didn't you see that guy Wu Hao?"

Xiao Fan's eyes swept around the competition table, but he still didn't find Wu Hao's figure, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused.

After all, according to Wu Hao's bellicose temperament, since he is in the arena, it is definitely impossible to stay quietly in the stands.

"I heard Hu Jia and the others talking before. It seems that Wu Hao basically goes up to fight every day. He hasn't gone up yet, maybe because he is still preparing."

Yue Yao, who was on the side, listened to Xiao Fan's words, turned her beautiful eyes around the competition stage several times, but did not find Wu Hao's figure, and then told Xiao Fan the news she heard from Hu Jia and the others.

Xiao Fan nodded when he heard this, and then noticed a young man wearing gray clothes not far from him.

If Xiao Fan remembered correctly, when he and Yue Yao first came in, the man's eyes would fall on him from time to time.

At the beginning, Xiao Fan didn't pay attention, after all, this was normal.

After all, in terms of appearance, he can crush everyone in the inner courtyard. Well, yes, Xiao Fan is extremely confident.

So it’s quite normal to have a bit of a return rate.

In addition, because of the alchemy competition, Xiao Fan felt that although not everyone in the academy knew him, most of the students should have met him, so Xiao Fan initially regarded this person as a recognition A person who has lost his identity.

But after so long, his eyes still looked at him from time to time. Although Xiao Fan didn't mind, with Yueyao by his side, this person's behavior was somewhat inappropriate.

As if realizing that Xiao Fan had seen him, the young man in gray bowed his hands towards Xiao Fan from a distance, then trotted all the way and walked up to Xiao Fan.

"you know me?"

Xiao Fan looked at the young man in front of him and asked curiously.

The young man didn't look very big, he was probably in his mid-twenties, and his strength was invisible under the gaze of Xiao Fan's golden eyes.

Nine-star fighting master!

And judging from the somewhat frivolous aura, it seems that he is not far away from breaking through the Dou Ling.

Xiao Fan's interest in this person couldn't help but increase.

"Haha, of course I've heard of Junior Xiao Fan's style."

The young man in gray clothes smiled at Xiao Fan, then nodded to Yue Yao who was beside Xiao Fan, then looked away and looked at Xiao Fan again.

The process was extremely natural, neither making Yueyao feel cold, nor too rude, and the scale was so appropriate that a flash of surprise flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes.

"My dear, He Feng, I've heard about Junior Xiao Fan for a long time. Whether it's the battle against Bai Cheng or the refining of the fifth-grade elixir in full public view, it's a major event that causes a stir in the inner courtyard."

He Feng smiled and said to Xiao Fan: "This must be the first time for junior Xiao Fan to come to the arena, right?"

“How come you see?”

Xiao Fan tilted his head and looked at He Feng. He didn't take his flattery to heart. However, this arena was not like the Tianfen Qi Training Tower, where there would be a test for first timers.

Moreover, the arena is so big, Xiao Fan does not believe that He Feng can always grasp the information of the students entering the arena.

"hey-hey."

Hearing Xiao Fan's words, He Feng smiled faintly, and then said somewhat mysteriously: "Although I am not the strongest in the academy, when it comes to controlling information in the academy, even Lin Xiuya and the others, Not as good as me."

"Oh?"

When Xiao Fan heard He Feng's words, his interest in him greatly increased.

Judging from He Feng's performance, he doesn't seem like the kind of person who likes to exaggerate, so what he said is most likely true.

Xiao Fan became curious. Such a person who was well versed in the news of the inner court was not very famous.

"Then I wonder what Senior He Feng's purpose is in finding me?"

"I'm sorry, if Junior Xiao Fan doesn't mind, just call me He Feng."

He Feng smiled faintly, and then said to Xiao Fan: "I have heard about junior Xiao Fan for a long time and want to make friends."

"Okay, if that's the case, then I won't be shy anymore."

Xiao Fan looked at He Feng, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he stopped calling the senior. The two of them directly called each other by their names.

"Since this is your first time coming to the arena, how about I introduce it to you?"

Seeing that Xiao Fan did not refuse, He Feng pointed to the competition platform below and said to Xiao Fan and the others: "The ten competition platforms below are where students usually fight. It seems like there is nothing. There is a slight difference, but if you feel it carefully, there is still a subtle difference."

Having said this, He Feng did not speak and looked at Xiao Fan curiously.

Xiao Fan raised his brows, released his soul power, and immediately discovered the mystery.

"That stone platform in the center?"

"That's right." He Feng was a little surprised when he saw Xiao Fan discovered it so quickly. He pointed at the stone platform in the middle and said, "Although there are not many students fighting in the arena on weekdays, the stone platform in the center is... It was retained by everyone’s tacit understanding.”

"What's the reason for this?"

Xiao Fan looked at the stone platform in the center, which looked a bit darker in color, with a trace of curiosity in his eyes.

Yue Yao, who was sitting next to Xiao Fan, also had a look of confusion on her face. After all, except for those who have been hanging out in the arena all year round, other people may not necessarily know so clearly about these situations. From this, it can be seen that even if He Feng's words are a bit exaggerated , but his information is well-informed.

"That's right." He Feng smiled faintly, and then said: "Speaking of which, this is also related to the ranking of the strongest in the inner courtyard."

"Strong list?"

Xiao Fan was a little confused, and then suddenly realized. "Is this competition platform specially reserved for strong ranking challenges?"

He Feng nodded and said with a smile: "Just like Xiao Fan's last battle with Bai Cheng, if according to the general rules of the inner courtyard, battles involving famous students on the strong list will basically be through fights. in the form of an arena.”

"On the one hand, they want to accumulate popularity, and on the other hand, they want to prove their strength. After all, the challenger wants to show his fangs, and the challenged one also wants to scare the monkeys."

Xiao Fan heard this and nodded in agreement. After all, most of the students on the strong list are basically practicing hard. If someone challenges him every three days, will he still practice?

So this arena can be regarded as helping them to screen out a group of weaklings.

"Not only because of this, but on the other hand, if it involves a challenge from a strong player, in addition to the loser's fire energy being deprived, 10% of the gambling money in the arena will also end up with the winner. fanny pack."

He Feng looked at Xiao Fan and revealed more information.

Even Xiao Fan did not expect that 10% of the gambling money involved in the strong ranking challenge in the arena would fall into the pocket of the winner.

In this way, it is no wonder that the challenges from the top players are all in the arena by default.

Once the battle is successful, not only can you gain more popularity and fame, but you can also get a lot of fire energy. No wonder no one has ever minded the existence of gambling in this arena.

Xiao Fan looked at He Feng in front of him and was a little surprised by his identity.

Being able to know so much news in the arena, and also knowing that it involves gambling battles involving the interests of top players, Xiao Fan does not believe that this is a status that ordinary people can have.

Then Xiao Fan thought of Panmen today. Panmen basically monopolized the elixir market. Wouldn't some of the profits have to be handed over to the academy?

Xiao Fan guessed that there should be a force similar to Panmen behind this arena.

"In addition, in the arena, most of the betting battles for each day are agreed in advance, so every day there will be a list of contestants in the arena for that day, which can be regarded as building momentum for them in advance."

As He Feng spoke, he took out a black token that looked like a warrant and handed it to Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan took the token handed over by He Feng and felt a cold feeling in his tentacles. However, the material of the token did not look simple. Xiao Fan understood the purpose of the token without He Feng's explanation.

A fighting spirit was injected into the token, and pairs of names appeared on it. Looking carefully, it seemed that there were still about ten competitions that had not been carried out today.

Xiao Fan searched among them and did not find Wu Hao's name. It seemed that he did not participate in the competition today.

He wanted to return the token to He Feng, but He Feng refused, saying that to make friends with Xiao Fan, he had to give him something. Xiao Fan accepted it happily, and then took out a bottle of elixir and handed it to He Feng. peak.

"This is a kind of elixir similar to the Bingqing Dan. It not only has the effect of suppressing fire poison, but also can make people stay happy and can relieve hundreds of poisons."

He Feng did not refuse, took the jade bottle in Xiao Fan's hand, and found a reason to leave.

Xiao Fan looked at He Feng's leaving figure, shook his head, put the token in his hand into the ring, and then talked and laughed with Yue Yao while watching the competition on the field.

When outsiders are around, Yue Yao has always been very quiet and will not interrupt Xiao Fan's conversation. Only when they are alone will she show her playfulness like a little girl.

Although the original intention was to see Wu Hao's arena career, now that they were here, Xiao Fan and Yueyao still felt the atmosphere of the arena before leaving.
