Chapter 1321
…
"What is your name?" he asked.
Xin Ja looks at him acting like a dumb person. He then lowered his head and then looks at the ground.
The middle-aged man suddenly frowns and then using the butt of his sword, he hit Xin Ja's stomach.
Bam!!!
Xin Ja was a bit surprised but acted with the flow. He suddenly took a few steps back and then groaned on the ground. However, the fat middle-aged man showed a great surprise on his face.
"This… this young lad's physique is not that bad. He is actually very sturdy…" he said with a grin.
He then waves his hand and his assistant, who is a tall man, wearing leather armor, and walked beside him.
"Call the arena… Tell them we have someone with a strong physique but with a broken dantian."
The man nodded and left the room.
Xin Ja was a bit taken aback. Although he acted swiftly it seems that this fat man has very sharp senses and had seen his ruse.
"You are very tough, so I will give you a chance of redemption…" he said as he walked beside Xin Ja.
"If you can win me some gold at the fighting coliseum, then… maybe then, I could help you gain your… freedom." He said with a grin.
"Freedom?" Xin Ja asked ignorantly.
Seeing the reaction of the young man before him a satisfied smile crept on the fat man's face.
"Yes, freedom… Did you see that guy who went out? He was my previous gladiator. And he won his freedom and is now working for me. He can freely do whatever he wanted unlike you… a slave."
"I'm not going to be a slave anymore?" Xin Ja showed a confused expression.
"Hihi… I truly love this…" the ugly fat man chuckled.
"You are innocent of the world. Let this Uy Haxiao educate you a little…" the fat man named Uy Haxiao wrapped his fat hand on Xin Ja's shoulder.
"My innocent friend… there are things that you did not know in this world. But let me tell you this… power and freedom go hand in hand…" he said with a grin.
"To gain power you have to fight for it… grab it by using your own hands… Hehe…"
Xin Ja calmly followed beside the man as he got dragged towards the table filled with food.
The man then began to explain his grand scheme of things to Xin Ja who listened innocently. He did not react and just listen while the man explained some rubbish.
All-in-all this guy just wanted to earn money and that is his point.
Xin Ja did not know what this man is planning, but he did not care. Right now, he is thinking about how he could get his hand on more 2nd level herbs.
Once he is able to get the gist of refining the herbs up to 98% then he could start concocting Spirit Mending Pill. This is a level 2 pill, from his Unique Vision which has the power to mend dantians. He did not know if it would be effective, but he has to try.
If not, then he could only go to the 3rd level herb and practice refining them to 98 to 99% purity so that he could concoct the 3rd level pill, Core Mending Pill.
But that pill is something that is hard to concoct even by a 5th-level alchemist. Xin Ja himself has not concocted such a pill before, even though he has already reached the 7th level alchemist master realm.
Xin Ja went with the flow and ate some of the food on the table. After some time, the servant of Uy Haxiao walked inside and then eyes Xin Ja with a slight smirk.
He then walked beside Uy Haxiao and then whispered something in his ears.
When Uy Haxiao heard the man's words, his expression turned ecstatic.
"You are very lucky today, young lad…" he said with an enthusiastic smile on his face.
"Today is your day to shine! Hahaha…" the ugly pudgy face of Uy Hanxiao turned jubilant and he laughed loudly inside the dining hall.
…
Xin Ja was sent to a place where people are gathering. It looks like a stadium, but a smaller version.
In the middle is an arena with white sand and the smell of blood permeated the air. Xin Ja expanded his Absolute Sense and quickly detected a few powerful beasts.
"Those are 2nd level beasts, dragon head Wirm, giant lightning Slicker, and ice Forg." Xin Ja muttered with disbelief.
Those beasts are powerful 2nd-level beasts that are comparable to Ki-Adept, but stronger.
When Xin Ja saw this, his expression darkened. He knew that this is the so-called glory that the fat pig was talking about.

"Glory my ass…" he cursed in his heart.
But he has no time to think about anything right now. Deep within his pocket, he carefully takes out his ring and then drips his blood on his gauntlet's gem.
With his will, he quickly takes out a few stacks of talisman papers, a beast blood ink, an etching tool, and a few Ki stones.
He has to prepare fast, if not his life would be in trouble.
When some of the people near him saw that Xin Ja is taking out some things from his small side bag, they all chuckled.
"He is going to write his will…" one of them teased.
"Hehe… If I were him, I would do so. I could sense no energy from his body. This goes to show that it's either he is a normal person, or his dantian is cracked. But a normal person could not be here, so he could only be trash with a broken dantian…" one of them said.
The others began to chuckle as they watch him in the corner busying himself.
However, one of them did not say anything and just watches Xin Ja using the brush to draw complex arrays one after another.
When he saw this, his eyes went wide in realization. He quickly stood up and then sits beside Xin Ja blocking the eyes of the other people.
Xin Ja is confused but did not stop drawing his talismans and etching the Ki stones. Whenever he sets the carved Ki stone on the ground it would furiously absorb the chaotic Ki in the air and would only stop when it is full.
After an hour of waiting and preparation, Xin Ja could only heave a helpless sigh as he could hear that the program is going to start outside the arena.
Everyone stood up as someone shouted at them.
"You maggots should prepare! Those that are able to win today will win their freedom!" the man shouted with a glaring tone and a hint of mocking.
But no one cares about him. Everyone in this place is a slave and wanted their freedom. If they should kill to live, then so they will.
The group then is instructed to step outside and present themselves to the audience.
"Little brother, I never would have expected to find an expert in this place…" suddenly the man that covered what Xin Ja was doing a while ago whispered.
"I'm no expert. I'm just some common man…" Xin Ja replied with a smile.
"Hehe… To meet, little brother, at this life and death juncture is my honor. I hope that you are able to survive this ordeal…" he said with a nod.
"I am Xin Ja…" Xin Ja introduced himself.
"I have no name… Since I was able to understand, I only know that I am called Big Rock… This is because… I have a very sturdy body…" Big Rock said while flexing his big muscle.
Xin Ja found this guy a bit hilarious and has a frank personality. He could even joke at this time which means that the guy is not that worried.
Judging from the scars on his body, Xin Ja could tell that this guy is a veteran gladiator and has been in many life and death situations.
It seems that this kind of thing is far too common for him.
Because he found the man a bit pleasing, Xin Ja decided to help the guy. Taking out one of his talismans, he secretly inserted it on Big Rock's belt without him knowing it.
Xin Ja and the rest of his group were presented to the crowd which hailed cheering amongst them. Then Xin Ja was given a number plate, and it was hung on his neck by a warrior like a medal.
Seeing the plate, he discovered that he is numbered 808.
"Hmm… This would be my code from now on?" Xin Ja frowned and muttered.
"Haha… Yes, for me… I'm 506… Ever since I started here, this has been my number…" Big Rock said as he lifted his hand and his number.
"Oh, my it's 506!" someone shouted from the crowd.
With that, everyone immediately shouted his number.
"506!"
"506!"
"506!"
The crowd chanted which sent elation to the heart of Big Rock.
"Hehe… That is how you could gain some audience… little brother." He chuckled.
Xin Ja nodded his head in understanding. He knew that Big Rock is doing this because there is a trace of helplessness in his eyes.
No one noticed it, but he has.
