Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1578: Breaking Through the Trial

Lin Luoyin was informing Li Feng and the other two about what she knew, while the selection process in White Tiger Square was coming to an end, and the Guardian Angels for the other nine had already been chosen.

The master of Flowers Pavilion once again walked in the air, overlooking the scene from above: "Since the Guardian Angels have been chosen, we shall proceed to the next stage — the championship."

"The target for all of you is over there, the seventh floor of Flowers Pavilion; the first beauty to set foot inside will become the Oiran of this competition."

"Now, I will announce three rules."

"First, before the flower cart arrives at Flowers Pavilion, no one on the cart may touch the ground. If the Guardian Angel does, they will lose eligibility, and if the beauty on the cart touches ground, she will be directly eliminated."

"Second, flower cart teams may directly eliminate each other, but remember, the Guardian Angels may not attack the beauties on the cart unless they are completely disqualified."

"Third, the flower carts will encounter some obstructions along the way; these people will carry tokens, which are the keys to open Flowers Pavilion. Equally, seeking these tokens involves certain risks. If anyone wants to quit, just shout 'grandfather' three times to exit."

The master of Flowers Pavilion mentioned this last rule while glancing at the Guardian Angels on the flower carts, with a slight mischievous smile at the corner of her mouth.

"Then, let's begin."

The master of Flowers Pavilion straightforwardly announced the start of the championship, then swiftly turned and left.

"Everyone, I'll take the first step."

On one of the flower carts, a person abruptly whipped the white ox pulling the cart, causing it to rush out ahead of others.

"Hmph, we're leaving too."

Other flower carts also started one after another, heading straight for Flowers Pavilion.

"You go drive the cart."

Yuan Bin, the Five Beasts King, turned his head to look at Li Feng, who slightly furrowed his brows, but Yuan Bin said, "What are you looking at? Among the three of us, you're the weakest. If you don't drive, should the two of us be the ones to do it then?"

"Besides, when we go through those alleyways, there will be ambushes. Acquiring the tokens when the time comes will be our responsibility — mine and Shi Lei's."

Shi Lei stood aside, indifferent.

Li Feng glanced at Yuan Bin, held back a breath, and chose not to argue. If this guy wants to take credit, let him have it.

Li Feng turned around and came to the front of the cart, grabbed the reins, and drove the white ox ahead of the cart, which started moving and gradually accelerating.

"Shi Lei, when we enter the alleyways later, we will be attacked from all sides, and those attackers are death row prisoners and War Slaves from the Death Arena."

Yuan Bin turned his head to look at Shi Lei.

"Oh."

Upon hearing the mention of death row prisoners and War Slaves, Shi Lei's face showed disdain, which Yuan Bin noticed, then continued.

"Shi Lei, I say this hoping you won't underestimate them; don't belittle these death row prisoners and War Slaves. These are desperate people, and a slight mistake can cost you your life."

Yuan Bin, originally from West City, had not participated in the Oiran festival but had watched it many times. Every year, arrogant individuals would end up slaughtered by these 'ants'.

Shi Lei squinted his eyes at Yuan Bin, "I have heard about the Death Arena; however, the people there are mostly riffraff. Perhaps they're good fighters, but in the face of absolute power, this so-called bravery amounts to nothing."

Yuan Bin shook his head, saying, "Many people thought that way in previous years, yet each year, one-third, even half, would perish on the way to Flowers Pavilion."

"Don't underestimate the death row prisoners and War Slaves from the Duel Arena; the Death Arena has stood for a century, thriving not just on mere bravery, but on having formed a system."

"To enhance the combat thrill and even bloodied intensity, unique or even sinister cultivation techniques are exchanged, then practiced by these death row prisoners and War Slaves within the arena."

"Moreover, in the arena, defeat signifies death; only victors receive some resources. Consequently, despite countless dying each year in the arena, none who survive are to be underestimated."

"Qi Refinement can kill Foundation Establishment, and Foundation Establishment can even kill Golden Core. Don't assume it impossible; know that in Ancestor Dragon City, things unnoticed by the public often involve finding such individuals in the arena for some shady dealings."

"Though this championship will not field overly powerful War Slaves, they won't be too weak either; and taking part is a chance for freedom. According to Flowers Pavilion's agreement with the arena, if any can take down one of us, they earn freedom."

"Thus, these death row prisoners and War Slaves will be absolutely frenzied; they won't spare their lives because if they do not fight, they die; if they do, there's a chance."

Before Yuan Bin finished speaking, Lin Luoyin also nodded, "Yes, the information I gathered says the same; this stretch is exceptionally perilous."

Shi Lei furrowed his brow; this Oiran festival is so complicated, yet interesting.

"Alright, I've got it. I won't underestimate them."

"Good, I'm merely giving a warning." Yuan Bin finished and looked at Li Feng, "And you, the driver, protect yourself later and drive well; we must protect the flower cart and Fairy Lin, but can't spare much for you."

Li Feng responded coolly, "Okay."

"Fairy Lin, later stay behind me and Shi Lei; we will ensure your safety."

As they spoke,

Li Feng had already driven the cart to the plaza's edge; only then did he notice that this area's buildings were mostly remnants, hardly distinguishable as alleyways but offering many paths for passage.

Other flower carts each entered a different path, and Li Feng also drove into one.

The path was a dirt road that could only fit one flower cart, and judging by the surrounding derelict buildings, it seemed to cut through a large estate, with all structures on the sides crumbling but obstructing their views.

At that moment,

A shout suddenly echoed from afar, accompanied by a scream, indicating that the flower cart rushing ahead had met an attack.

Li Feng drove the cart, alert in every direction; as the ox cart passed through a collapsed portion of a building,

an unexpected change occurred,

A huge boulder crashed through a wall on one side, hurling toward the flower cart.

Li Feng furrowed his brow but did not act immediately; Yuan Bin, standing not far behind him, suddenly let out a cold snort and then raised his fist.

Five Beasts Vajra Fist.

Fist Power surged forward, smashing into the aerial boulder and instantly shattering it, sending numerous fragments flying back toward the direction from which the boulder came.

A prisoner ready to charge was immediately pierced like a sieve by these stones.

But this was merely the beginning of the ambush.

On the severed buildings, shirtless War Slaves, bodies covered with scars, suddenly leaped up and descended toward the flower cart.

"Watch out, Burning Technique."
