Chapter 1754: Chapter 532: The Beginning of a Slave Uprising Sweeping Across the Southern Continent_3

Most of these people came for the King of the Gladiators competition, and instead of being frightened and dispersing at this scene, they excitedly pointed and talked amongst themselves.

The black flames-like Gang Air was too conspicuous, and almost everyone recognized Barre Shepherd’s identity in an instant.

"Look, it’s the Eastern Wasteland Air Skill Master who defeated ’Black Sword’ Marikas in one move today!"

"This Gang Air is so exaggerated, how do I feel like it’s even stronger than it was in the afternoon? And who exactly is it that has pushed the Old Man to fight with all his might?"

"Hey... isn’t that ’Blue Knight’ Konabos? Is this guy really that strong?"

"My goodness, I thought that Eastern Wasteland Air Skill Master was sure to clinch this ’King of the Gladiators’ crown, but I didn’t expect there was such a powerful contender hidden among the gladiators. These two’s combat power is likely not weaker than that of Eighth Rank fighters..."

"The several hot favorites previously touted for the crown can’t even compare to these two... shit, is the bookmaker planning to pull off an upset?! Fuck, give me back my money!"

"..."

The battle, from its appearance to public view, became extraordinarily fierce.

This was more intense than any other match today.

Everyone now understood,

that this afternoon when ’Blue Knight’ Konabos beat ’Silver-eyed Tyrannosaurus’ Rhein, he was clearly holding back.

And when Barre Shepherd defeated ’Black Sword’ Marikas in one move, it was a one-sided match, dazzling in execution, but not exactly thrilling.

The essence was that the disparity in strength between these two contestants and the other gladiators was too great.

Now, two real contenders for the title started fighting, truly bringing about an evenly matched intense battle.

Fist force taking shape, engulfing the sky.

The huge stone-built central Gladiator Arena, under the terrifying aggressiveness of the two, collapsed in large swathes.

Just the shockwaves alone swept across a radius of several miles, with dust and stones flying about, creating an earthquaking sensation of the earth shaking and the mountains swaying.

However, the spectators were not frightened away; on the contrary, more and more people rushed to inquire and gathered around to watch this astonishing battle.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The elites of the United Commerce also learned of the anomaly at the Gladiator Arena in no time.

There had been incidents in the past where gladiators escaped from prison, but those types would usually try to flee as quietly as possible once free.

However, this time was completely different.

These two weren’t running away but had started fighting?

The managers of the Commerce Guild watched in shock, and at the same time, they were gnashing their teeth in anger.

The originally planned final was now playing out prematurely, which would lead to heavy losses for the United Commerce!

They had wanted to intervene.

But even when asking Eighth Rank Guard Commanders, their expressions were all very ugly.

With the state these two were in, what average Eighth Rank had the confidence to intervene and be sure of victory?

To actually intervene, even three or five Eighth Ranks might not be able to control the situation.

And now, even if they did intervene, not to mention whether they could control the two gladiators, even if they could, the hope of cashing in from an upset in the finals was already gone.

The battle continued to intensify with everyone’s attention fixed upon it.

It was as if the entire Giant Spirit City had become the stage for these two, as countless people witnessed this battle that could be called legendary.

...

Elsewhere, Leonard Churchill and Sophia Jones had of course found a good position early on to observe the battle.

This level of fighting was a rare reference for both of them.

Since they had anticipated it, the two of them were very relaxed.

Sophia Jones’ eyes reflected the intense interchange of the figures in the sky, and she saw more details than the others, remarking thoughtfully, "That Ceres individual already has the Divine Power of the Lord of Soldier Calamity protecting him, making him impervious to swords and spears; coupled with the Luck of the War Commander, he can’t possibly lose... and yet Senior Shepherd is not falling behind at all. The Mirror of Martial Saint is really powerful..."

Leonard Churchill also nodded in agreement, "Yes, the Old Man’s Realm is outrageous indeed. Senior Griffith once told me that the Holy Realm, which Ninth Rank can only touch, this Old Man reached at the Seventh Rank Peak."

Deservedly known as the once-in-thousands of years Martial Arts prodigy of the Eastern Wasteland, deservedly known as the "Number One Martial Artist of the Eastern Wasteland."

It’s incredible that initially, Barre Shepherd was able to comprehend ’Divine Power’ on his own, with no guidance from others and no Classic Books to refer to.

This alone is a testament to his talent.

Now that he has stepped into the Holy Domain, Leonard considers it reasonable.

Thinking of something, he laughed, "Perhaps for many years to come, history books will record the slave uprising originating in Giant Spirit City on the Southern Continent, and the catalyst was a duel between two gladiators..."

Sophia Jones also responded with a commiserating smile, "Yes, indeed."

That feeling was quite subtle...

They had always been reading Epics, from those grand narratives, seeing the names of legendary figures;

Yet suddenly one day, they found themselves inadvertently becoming characters who could leave a few words in these Epics.

Especially at their Realm.

This realization becomes a vein of history, somewhat like the rule of the world’s rotation.

They watched the battle without blinking.

Suddenly, not far from the Gladiator Arena, two blocks away, an intense battle also erupted.

Sophia Jones slightly turned her eyes, "Has it started?"

Leonard nodded, "Mhm."

Although not surprised, Sophia, who hadn’t had the time to ask in detail earlier, looked on curiously, "How did you manage that?"

"It wasn’t me."

Leonard shook his head, his gaze growing distant, "It’s just that this duel prompted those guys to start early. The Rainbow Consortium isn’t even the main plotter; many War Slaves from the Blue Cross Legion had already infiltrated the city, they’re the main force behind the revolt..."

As his words fell, like dominoes, fierce battle noises arose from all directions in the city.

As he spoke, Leonard also stood up, laughing, "Aunt Jones, let’s go too. It’s about time for us to cash in our winning tickets."
