Next day is a slow day : you stockpiled your allowance of <span class="mu-s">Body Tempering Liquid</span>, and try not to let stress pile up.
Carts are readied and loaded up - the event is a rare gathering of all cultivators in the vicinity, so you expect quite a good amount of trade behind the coliseum's walls.
Of course, there is a coliseum : what city doesn't have the basic facility to house the people's favorite amusement?
The place is crowded : easily over a thousand participants, with one hundred in your particular category.
You glance at the Bracket.
You can't read. So you ask Kyo Ko for help - she finger-point your position.
"<span class="mu-g">You're here. First opponent is a Military Youth named Xiao Niar.</span>"
You still understand one thing : by luck, you're drawn in a bracket avoiding one round of fight. Nice.
Of course, you're not the opening act. That honor is granted to a kid you recognize - the one gifted using a bow, facing a nameless face in a dark hood... And the fight's already over, the other kid covered in teal paint.
Is the bow a cheat pick? In any case, the formation set up by the referees seems to be effective.
And the realization dawns you : your Fighting technique, the <span class="mu-s">Hawk's double talon</span> is useless in that kind of fight. After all, if the fight is concluded after one hit succesful hit, a second one won't make a difference.
<span class="mu-s">Stockpiling the Body Tempering Liquid was a bad choice</span> - not that a single extra session would have made such a difference, you cope.
Soon enough, it's your turn. You step on the ring, halberd in hand. You focus on the main advice given to you - hide your techniques as long as possible.
"<span class="mu-r">Disgusting nasty Shrimp man! This Xiao Niar will get its revenge!</span>"
Oh, right, this retard. Flailing his sword like he's scared of it.
>Introducing the fighting system in that quest!
Fights are perilous event for cultivators. In particular, engaging in a fair fight to death with a cultivator a couple realms over your one will grant you an immediate date with lady death.
You're not a officially a cultivator yet - not with your Heart Aperture still closed. However, you've been diligently training, already seized a fortuitous opportunity, and have been rewarded with unlimited Body Tempering Liquid as well as pills by the Sect.
Last week, one of the smaller disciple could indulge for the first time in Body Tempering Liquid. You're certain Xiao Niar didn't had any, most likely because of his completely unlikeable attitude.
>This fight will be a landslide win. No roll require.
Now, how will you end this?
>A single Halberd thrust. End his misery while sparing his pride as much as possible.
>Ask the judge to coat your hand instead. Punch him in the shit-spitter thing which acts as his mouth
>Just wait for him to maim himself.
