Chapter 454: Inviting You to Admire The Scenery at The Arena of Life and Death
“Alright, I’m listening!”
Fan Zhibao thought to himself, What business could this fellow have? He’s probably thinking of another evil move to provoke me again.
“I want to see what you can come up with!”
Qin Chuan did not waste any more words and said seriously, “Do you have the guts to fight me at the Arena of Life and Death?”
Fan Zhibao was taken aback. He thought he had misheard.
“Say that again?” asked Fan Zhibao in disbelief.
Qin Chuan repeated in a serious tone.
Fan Zhibao asked doubtfully, “Are you sure?”
“Just say, yes or no?” Qin Chuan didn’t want to waste any more time with him.
Qin Chuan had long planned this.
Fan Zhibao had provoked Qin Chuan time and time again. He had already reached the limits of his tolerance.
Qin Chuan felt that he had already kept a low profile, but there would always be someone who thought too highly of himself.
Keeping a low profile did not mean that one had to endure everything. He couldn’t take the 200 strikes in the punishment room in vain.
Together with the gossip, it was time to make Fan Zhibao pay for his actions.

“I’ve been thinking about how to deal with you for the past few days. I didn’t expect you to come knocking on my door. I’ll fulfill your wish,” Fan Zhibao agreed decisively.
The Arena of Life and Death was the best place to resolve the conflict between the sect disciples.
Back then, there had been an intense discussion among the people of the Luo Ding Sect over whether to build the Arena of Life and Death.
Once in the Arena of Life and Death, only one person could survive.
If one party were to admit defeat, their life would be in their opponent’s hands.
This was extremely cruel.
The Luo Ding Sect had a huge dilemma over the construction back then.
It was not easy for a sect to nurture a disciple. It was also fate that they could cultivate together.
To the upper echelons of the sect, they naturally hoped that the disciples in the sect could unite and cultivate together to achieve their Dao.
However, as the conflicts between the sect disciples increased and the number of clashes grew, the Arena of Life and Death had to be constructed.
Ever since the Arena of Life and Death was built, countless disciples had died on it.
Although it was cruel, it was indeed the best way to resolve the conflict between them.
Fan Zhibao had long wanted to get rid of Qin Chuan. He had thought of going to the Arena of Life and Death to have a duel.
However, he had transcended the immortal tribulation and reached the Immortal Realm.
Due to the difference in their cultivation levels, he felt that there was a high chance that Qin Chuan wouldn’t agree.
Even if they agreed, the disciples would feel that he was bullying the weak.
This would damage his reputation, and the gains would not make up for the losses.
But now that Qin Chuan was the one who initiated it, the situation was different.
However, Fan Zhibao remembered that they still needed a witness so that people wouldn’t spout nonsense again.
Therefore, he said, “Only you and I know that you’ve brought up the Arena of Life and Death. If you suddenly go back on your word, wouldn’t it be meaningless?
“So…”
Before he could finish, Qin Chuan interrupted, “I understand what you mean. You’re afraid of others criticizing you, saying that you forced me to do so.
“I’ll announce this at the Dao Technique Chamber later.
“There are so many people at the Dao Technique Chamber. With them as witnesses, that should be enough!”
“Alright! I hope you won’t go back on your word when the time comes,” said Fan Zhibao. “By the way, when is the date?”
Qin Chuan thought for a moment. “There’s no time like the present? Let’s do it today!”
Fan Zhibao waved his hand. “I’m afraid not today. I’m still grounded. I have to discuss this with the elders.”
“How long will it take for you to give me a reply?” asked Qin Chuan.
“I can give you an answer today,” said Fan Zhibao.
“Then I’ll wait for your reply on the fourth level of the Dao Technique Chamber. I hope you don’t stand me up.”
With that, Qin Chuan left without waiting for Fan Zhibao to speak.
After returning to the Dao Technique Chamber, Qin Chuan blended in with the crowd, bypassing Gu Mengyao’s line of sight and successfully returning to the fourth level.
However, he didn’t go in. Instead, he waited at the door.
On the other side, Fan Zhibao immediately contacted the elders of the Sword Dao office after Qin Chuan left.
He told them about their plan to go to the Arena of Life and Death.
The elders were especially surprised.
Fan Zhibao was now in the Heaven Immortal realm, while his opponent was only in the Mahayana realm.
Even though there was only a major realm of difference, the difference between transcending an immortal tribulation and not was like that between heaven and earth.
Unless his combat strength could cross this chasm, challenging a Heaven Immortal was purely courting death.
Under normal circumstances, a hundred Mahayana cultivators would barely be able to resist a Heaven Immortal.
This was only resistance.
But it was too easy for a Heaven Immortal to kill a Mahayana cultivator. It was as easy as drinking water.
“I think there’s something fishy about this.
“How can a mere Mahayana cultivator dare to challenge a Heaven Immortal? There must be something wrong.”
The person who spoke was an elder with a mole on his chin.
The elders present had also considered this.
“Zhibao, you just transcended the Immortal Tribulation not long ago. Your realm hasn’t stabilized yet, so you’re not suitable for combat.”
“Zhu Xiaoming must have made preparations. You were fooled by him previously; you must learn your lesson.”
“Previously, your conflict created such sensational news. The heat is finally dropping down. If you agree to go to the Arena of Life and Death, the commotion will definitely be even greater than before.”
“Zhibao, there are many eyes on our Sword Dao office now, waiting to laugh at us. You have to consider the overall situation!”
The elders all persuaded him.
Fan Zhibao was getting impatient.
“Elders, I understand your difficulties.
“But Zhu Xiaoming had already become my mental demon.
“As long as I don’t get rid of this demon, I won’t be able to get peace.
“If this goes on, I’m afraid that I’ll be corrupted by my mental demons one day.
“If my body is controlled by the mental demon, I will become a demon with no emotions and only knows how to kill.
“Elders, you don’t want this day to happen, do you?! ”
Fan Zhibao said loudly, his eyes red.
With that said, the elders present looked at each other, appearing very troubled.
They knew better than Fan Zhibao how dangerous mental demons were.
“Zhibao, well! You must get rid of your mental demons but there’s no need to be in such a hurry. We can discuss it at length.”
“That’s right! We can discuss this at length.”
After some thought, the elders decided that the reputation of the Sword Dao office was the most important. They continued to persuade him if they could.
Fan Zhibao seemed to have expected them to say this, but he had made up his mind. He would never compromise.
If he were to refuse, Zhu Xiaoming would definitely be overjoyed. He would definitely become even more sarcastic.
Fan Zhibao could already imagine Zhu Xiaoming laughing at him.
No matter what, he could not escape this life-and-death battle.
“Elders, stop trying to persuade me,” said Fan Zhibao decisively.
All the elders knew Fan Zhibao’s temper. Since he had said so, it was unlikely that he would change his mind.
But the elders did not want to give up.
“Zhibao, now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to invite Elder Chen Feng here,” said an elder.
As soon as he finished speaking, a deep voice sounded in the room, and the entire air vibrated.
“There’s no need to. I already know of this matter.” The voice came from Chen Feng.
“Zhibao, if you’ve already thought it through, I definitely won’t object,” said Chen Feng.
Fan Zhibao bowed to the sky. “Master, I’ve thought it through.”
“Alright! Go ahead!
“But, you must not underestimate your opponent. Since that person suggested a duel in the Arena of Life and Death, he’s serious. You have to be prepared, “reminded Chen Feng.
“I know what to do.”
“Then I won’t say anything else.” Chen Feng’s voice disappeared, and the room returned to its previous calm.
The elders seemed to have something to say, but they did not say anything in the end.
After all, even Chen Feng was an Immortal King, and he had tacitly agreed to it. This was the only way.
Before long, a disciple from the Sword Dao office went to the Dao Technique Chamber.
Qin Chuan was wearing a mask, and he found him immediately.
“You are Zhu Xiaoming?” The disciple confirmed.
Qin Chuan said, “That’s right, I’m Zhu Xiaoming.”
The disciple from the Sword Dao office said, “Senior Brother Fan said to ask you to set a time. Senior Brother will play with you to the end.”
There were still six to eight hours until noon.
Qin Chuan pondered for a moment. “Then let’s set it at noon!”
Qin Chuan arrived at the hall on the first floor.
The Dao Technique Chamber was the place with the most traffic in the sect. At this time of the day, it was also the peak of human traffic. There were long rows outside, and the hall was filled with people.
Clap clap clap!
Qin Chuan clapped his hands hard, covering the noise in the hall.
Instantly, everyone looked at him.
Gu Mengyao, who was taking a request from a disciple, also looked over.
Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the familiar mask.
Junior Brother Xiaoming??
Gu Mengyao was confused.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Qin Chuan began his performance.
“Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters! I’m Zhu Xiaoming, the one whose name has been spreading like wildfire these past few days.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire crowd was shocked.
Qin Chuan raised his voice and said loudly, “Today, I want to make a request to Fan Zhibao, Senior Brother Fan of the Sword Dao office.
“I plan to invite Senior Brother Fan Zhibao to go admire the scenery at the Arena of Life and Death with me.”
After this announcement, the entire Dao Technique Chamber was instantly in an uproar.
The news of Zhu Xiaoming’s challenge to Fan Zhibao to fight at the Arena of Life and Death quickly spread throughout the entire disciple circle.
