Chapter 54: Win the challenge and purchase the Star Skeleton Clan!
Lu Changqing raised the huge white jade spoon and dug hard into the ground.
Lu Changqing dug out a large patch of soil and threw it directly at the Star Skeleton Clan.
Nanxingluo: No, if you can't handle the game, you throw sand?
A huge pit was dug out by Lu Changqing's actions.
Jiang Lai, who was watching from the sidelines, turned pale when he saw this.
"That pockmarked guy, he's treating the Colosseum like a graveyard again!"
He remembered clearly that once Lu Changqing fought against a member of one of the myriad races and dug more than ten deep pits. In the end, Lu Changqing did win the battle.
But filling the Colosseum pits cost him a small sum of money.
Jiang Lai had seen many people in the arena, but he had never seen anyone like Lu Changqing.
Although Nan Xingluo was somewhat stunned, he knew that a battle was underway. He made a grasping motion with his right hand, and a starlight sword appeared in his hand.
"Seven Stars Respect Heaven, Southern Star and Northern Dipper, Sword Slash!"
With each step he stomped on the ground, as if performing some kind of footwork, the sword tip thrust out seven times, forming the shape of the Big Dipper.
The next second, seven sword lights flashed and attacked Lu Changqing.
Lu Changqing felt a sharp, piercing aura envelop his entire body.
"This is the power of the stars?!"
Lu Changqing's eyes narrowed, and he exclaimed in surprise. Then, he dug hard into the ground with the white jade spoon, and his spiritual energy surged wildly into the semi-spiritual artifact in his hand.
He dug again with great force.
He flung the dirt away.
Rumble~
The soil collided with the sword light, and in just a moment, the soil was shattered by the sword energy.
However, Lu Changqing was already prepared. His spiritual energy surged, and his figure disappeared from the spot.
When it reappeared, it was already in front of Nan Xingluo.
"Wow, that's fast!"
Nan Xingluo's eyes narrowed. Lu Changqing, who was just near the deep pit, had suddenly appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the exciting moment has arrived!"
"I wonder if Ma Mian's wok-flipping technique is stronger, or Nan Xingluo's Seven Star Sword Aura!"
The host flew through the air on a long sword, his voice reaching every corner of the audience.
"Nan Xingluo, defeat him!"
Some people shouted, as if they wished they were there.
A burst of violent power suddenly erupted from Lu Changqing's body, and his aura changed abruptly.
"kill!"
In Lu Changqing's hand, the white jade spoon was like a long spear, which he swung out directly.
The body's internal energy was poured into the white jade spoon without any reservation.
Boom boom boom~
Each attack landed squarely on Nan Xingluo's body.
After all, Nan Xingluo was a burly man, standing at five meters tall. Although Lu Changqing's attacks were not very powerful, he could only barely withstand them.
Because Lu Changqing's attacks were extremely fast and powerful, without any restraint, the giant spoon in his hands had become a giant hammer, constantly smashing towards Nan Xingluo.
At this moment, Lu Changqing was like a focused blacksmith, hammering his most perfect work.
Each attack seemed to carry a certain rhythm.
To outsiders, he seemed like a madman, showing no mercy whatsoever.
Even when Nan Xingluo brandished her Starlight Sword, Lu Changqing used a white jade spoon to pull her aside.
Unbeknownst to her, Nan Xingluo was forced close to the edge of that huge pit.
"kill!"
Lu Changqing shouted loudly and used all his strength to dig directly at one of Nan Xingluo's legs with the giant spoon.
With all his strength concentrated, he shone brightly.
Bang! Boom!
Nan Xingluo was actually sent flying by Lu Changqing.
This scene seemed unbelievable to the audience inside the Colosseum.
It's worth noting that Nan Xingluo is more than twice the height of Lu Changqing, and this scene undoubtedly shocked many viewers.
"He's here! He's here!"
Upon seeing this, the host immediately shouted.
Without veering off course, Nan Xingluo fell directly into the deep pit that Lu Changqing had just dug.
Although he was over five meters tall, the pit was just the right size to accommodate him.
Boom!
Nan Xingluo fell heavily into the deep pit and couldn't even get up for a while.
With a serious expression on his face, Lu Changqing swung the white jade spoon again, digging out clumps of soil and burying them into the deep pit.
The soil, like cannonballs, kept crashing into the deep pit.
In just a short while, Lu Changqing buried the pit.
"Pockmarked Face's skill in burying people remains as elegant as ever; even the Starbucks Clan has no way to avoid it!"
The host explained excitedly.
buzz~
The ground trembled, as if something was wriggling.
"Seal it off!"
Lu Changqing brandished the white jade spoon, channeling his inner energy into it once more, and a phantom image of a rice spoon landed directly on the spot.
The ground immediately stopped shaking.
At this moment, all the true energy in his body had been exhausted, not a single drop remained.
The host approached the venue and began a countdown.
"Ten, nine, eight..."
"Three, two, one!"
"Congratulations to the pockmarked contestant for successfully completing the challenge!"
The host announced on the spot that Lu Changqing had succeeded in his challenge, and cheers erupted from the audience.
Some people were cursing and swearing, while others were shouting excitedly.
This wasn't the first time Lu Changqing had heard all of this.
The white jade spoon was swung again, digging open the soil and revealing the underground stardust.
At this moment, Nan Xingluo was covered in mud, and her eyes were filled with resentment and disbelief.
He lost; he lost to someone of the same rank.
"Congratulations."
Nan Xingluo crawled out of the soil, her eyes filled with disappointment, and congratulated Lu Changqing.
His voice was tinged with bitterness and helplessness.
"Thank you for your concession."
Lu Changqing looked at his tall figure, nodded slightly, and then returned to the waiting area.
Before long, Jiang Lai came up with a smile on his face.
"Pockmarked Face, I can't believe you actually won!"
Jiang Lai saw Lu Changqing and repeatedly offered his congratulations.
"By sheer luck."
Lu Changqing's tone was somewhat indifferent; his family knew what was going on in their own home.
His victory this time was entirely due to trickery.
First Nanxingluo was unaware of his fighting style and often froze during battles.
Secondly, he didn't actually cause much damage to Nan Xingluo, especially since he had already exhausted all his internal energy.
If it had been any later, he would have undoubtedly lost.
"This is a reward from our Heavenly Battle Arena."
Jiang Lai took out a complete boundary compass and handed it to Lu Changqing, saying...
Thank you!
Lu Changqing's eyes were bright, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, but Jiang Lai didn't see it because he was wearing a mask.
"Pockmarked Face, in a while, our Heavenly Battle Arena will be preparing a race with a mid-level bloodline. I wonder if you'd be interested?"
Jiang Lai watched as Lu Changqing put away the boundary compass, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
They're in the Heavenly Battle Arena; they can't afford to lose a boundary compass.
"A mid-tier bloodline race?"
Lu Changqing narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Jiang Lai.
"I'll think about it."
Lu Changqing nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor refusing.
In short, it all boils down to one word—delay.
"That Starbuckler?"
Lu Changqing asked, seemingly with a hidden meaning.
"Since we lost the match, this challenge is over. The arena will arrange for other races to come."
"As for that Star Skeleton Clan member, he will naturally return to where he belongs."
Jiang Lai casually remarked that for their arena, the Star Skeleton Clan was merely a means for them to generate profits.
They've earned a lot of star crystals by being able to stay afloat until now.
"That Starbuckling is quite strong; I wonder if he could be sold to me?"
Lu Changqing asked directly.
He was quite interested in the Star Skeleton Clan. He had seen them in the Encyclopedia of All Races, but this was the first time he had seen them in person.
He had never heard anyone mention the Star Skeleton Clan in the Acropolis before; perhaps this Star Skeleton Clan member was the only one in the Acropolis.
"Oh? Pockmarked face, you want the Star Skeletons?"
Jiang Lai's eyes lit up, and he stared at Lu Changqing and asked.
"He is indeed very strong, and I am quite interested in him."
Lu Changqing nodded slightly. The Heavenly Battle Arena would bring in races that were not available in the city every two or three months.
The Starbucks are one of them.
As for why, it's obviously for promotion and sales.
"Three thousand star crystals!"
Jiang Lai held up three fingers without any hesitation and said to Lu Changqing.
"Three thousand?"
Lu Changqing clicked his tongue inwardly; this price was definitely not cheap at all.
However, considering the bets I placed before the match, the price wasn't unacceptable, but I still had to negotiate.
In the end, Lu Changqing spent 2,700 star crystals to buy Nanxingluo.
Jiang Lai quickly took out a racial crystal, and inside, Nan Xingluo lay quietly.
"Pockmarked face, you're welcome to challenge a mid-tier bloodline race in two months!"
Jiang Lai saw Lu Changqing off with a smile on his face.
Lu Changqing waved his hand, left the Heavenly Battle Arena, and returned to his small courtyard.
"The Starbone Clan, the power of the stars?!"
Back in the courtyard, Lu Changqing's figure flashed and he directly arrived in the Earth Realm.
During the competition, Lu Changqing sensed the power of the stars possessed by the Star Skeleton Clan. He still had the Thousand-Leaf Blue Silver Grass that Ye Xuanbei had given him.
He is now very interested in the Star Skeleton race and is also very curious about what their racial description is.
