The Path To God
Ch 237's. Colosseums
Blood Prison, Mlubery City
In the middle of Mlubery City was a very tall building. Since it was the largest building, Ren Yuu moved towards the building.
Arriving at the building, Ren Yuu was stopped by several guards.
"Stop. This place is not a place that can be entered by any individual!" One of the guards warned.
Ren Yuu shriveled at hearing that. He looked at the guard and asked, "does Feng Douzi live here?"
The guard stopped to hear him for a moment. He thought about Ren Yuu's question. Because, Mlubery City was the seat of Bai Qing's power. It was only natural for the guards not to know the name because Feng Xuer very rarely appeared.
"No. This place is Master Bai's residence. I've never heard of that individual you mentioned." The guard said after thinking for a moment.
Ren Yuu frowned hearing that. "Did Qianye give false information?" Inner Ren Yuu. He felt it was impossible.
"Is Master Bai around? Can I meet him?" Ren Yuu asked because it was better to ask an influential person.
"No. Master Bai is currently busy and cannot accept guests." Answer the guard.
Ren Yuu already knew that it would be difficult to meet someone influential. He just nodded and turned to go to another building smaller than the one in the city center.
***
Above the sky, Feng Xuer who wanted to leave the city paused for a moment. He looked towards the front of Bai Qing's building but only saw the guards there because Ren Yuu had already moved quickly towards another building.
"Is it just my feeling?" Mumbled Feng Xuer. After pondering for a moment, he flew out of Mlubery City ignoring the familiar feeling he had just gotten.
***
Ren Yuu is currently in the second largest building in the city of Mlubery City. It was a Colosseum belonging to Bai Qing.
In Blood Prison, murder is the daily life of prisoners so they make something like the Colosseum to entertain themselves.
While inside the building, Ren Yuu notices that there is a match schedule at the Colosseum every day.
All the prisoners who had high abilities would be recruited to be part of Bai Qing's army. As Bai Qing's Elite troops, naturally they would live a quiet life of being able to receive many top grade spirit stones to extend their lifespan.
"Do I have to join in order to meet the Bai Qing?" Inner Ren Yuu. He then decided to take part in the Colosseum because he felt it would bring him closer to his mother.
He then walked towards the registration place to take part in the fight at the Colosseum.
At the registration venue, an Elite person from Bai Qing's army guarded the registration venue. He was taking down a lot of participants because Bai Qing had just announced the recruitment for a new Elite because he wanted to go on a special expedition.
The news spread in less than 1 minute throughout the city which led many prisoners to register at the Colosseum.
Ren Yuu also lined up to register. He was confused because suddenly in a short time, very many prisoners participated.
The cultivator in front of Ren Yuu looked towards Ren Yuu then replied, "a moment ago Master Bai announced that he needed troops for his new Elite squad. The troops would be categorized based on the Nascent Soul Tier squads and the Tier Ascension squads."
"For Tier Ascension cultivators, they didn't need to compete in the Colosseum because it was instantly accepted. For the Nascent Soul Tier cultivators downwards, they would have to fight in the Colosseum for this week to become part of Master Bai's army." The cultivator explained because it wasn't too stingy. After all, he was currently queuing up to register. There was nothing to lose for him to explain a little.
Ren Yuu frowned hearing that. "How many Elites have received in the Nascent Soul Tier squads?" Ask Ren Yuu again.
"Just 20 people for it. Each of them would lead many Nascent Soul and Gold Core Tier cultivators under their command." Answer the cultivator.
"Thank you for telling me." Ren Yuu said softly.
The cultivator simply nodded then looked forward again as the queue was already close to him.
Ren Yuu thought why the ruler of Mlubery City wanted to create his own Elite army at this moment. He just put it aside and stayed in line to sign up.
Most of those who signed up were third to seventh stage Nascent Souls. It was rare for the eighth and ninth stages to sign up as they would become direct subordinates of Tier Ascension.
When it was Ren Yuu's turn to enlist, Elite Bai Qing frowned because Ren Yuu was only half a step Nascent Soul.
"You'll die if you fight, son." The elite Bai Qing commemorated Ren Yuu because she was an individual born in Blood Prison and could not bear to see many children dying in the Colosseum.
The population in Blood Prison could be said to be more than half were new individuals born in Blood Prison. They are innocent but remain stamped as criminals because their parents are criminals who are thrown into Blood Prison.
"I still want to sign up." Ren Yuu said looking determined.
The elite Bai Qing could only sigh. He had already warned Ren Yuu but he did not choose the obligation to protect her.
"Name..." Elite Bai Qing.
"Ren Yuu." Ren Yuu replied.
The elite Bai Qing recorded Ren Yuu's name and then gave her a token. "You're in group 9." Elite Bai Qing said softly.
Ren Yuu nodded as he already understood the meaning of the sentence. Which meant, the match this time was a battle royal to look for the winner who would enter the Elite ranks of Bai Qing.
After which, Ren Yuu left the registration place. He looked at the schedule for the group match 9. He competed on the third day because every day there will be 4 groups that will compete.
After seeing the schedule, Ren Yuu immediately left the Colosseum. He then went into an inn to wait for the day of the match.
"Why don't I bring Xiao Xiao? If it was him, Xiao Xiao would definitely be able to meet Bai Qing because of his cultivation." Ren Yuu complained for not thinking long.
"No problem... I also want to join the fight to forge my strength." Ren Yuu muttered as he did not want to resign. He knew it would be a long time to find his mother in Blood Prison.
But, when word of someone named Ren Yuu who had high battle prowess appeared, it was likely that his mother would come to see him. That was Ren Yuu's plan for now.
