Global Martial Arts: I Chose Monopoly As My Game Talent - Chapter 22

Chapter 22 The Duel With the Weeping Corpse Bird has Finally Begun!

In the arena, an hour had passed, and the impatient urging from the audience had finally stopped.

With the appearance of the weeping corpse bird, the people who were about to fall asleep and those who were bored playing other games in the stands all turned their attention back to the arena.

On both sides of the audience, many who had left their seats to hang out ran back excitedly to their seats. With the heated atmosphere, they cheered.

Some even ran too fast and fell.

Some were delayed by other matters and had their seats taken by others.

Some who were hot-tempered simply occupied an empty seat and were unwilling to get up.

At the back of the audience were many who were attracted by the gimmicks and advertisements.

These people had arrived late and could only buy standing tickets at three times the price. They massaged their sore legs or stretched their bodies, then looked at the arena with burning eyes.

“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your patience. One hour has passed. The battle between the student from Binhai First High and the weeping corpse bird will now begin!” As the host’s voice rang out, the audience’s cheers also reached their peak.

The weeping corpse bird’s huge body was covered in blood, and many of its wounds had already formed a thick scab. However, as it twisted its body in anger, its wounds were torn open once more, causing scarlet blood to flow out from the various wounds, down to its feet.

Where its feet landed, a pool of sticky, scarlet pus would pool on the ground.

Not long after the weeping corpse bird was set free to run around in the arena, the stage, which had been clean a moment ago, was now covered in sticky red liquid and gave off a foul stench.

The audience looked at the huge beast and the foul crimson blood on the battlefield. The fear and bloodthirst in their hearts were released at the same time.

With that, those who were afraid of the beast roared loudly, feigning excitement.

In an instant, the circular arena was filled with roars.

“Next up is our little human friend, a student of Binhai First High, Su Chen! He’s finally going to enter the arena and fight after an additional hour of life. Let’s guess how many seconds he can last,” When the host introduced Su Chen, his tone was still contemptuous and disdainful. With his arrogant expression, it was as if he couldn’t speak without assuming such a manner.

Along with the host’s introduction, Su Chen finally stepped into the arena again.

As he entered the arena, the audience in the stands were also constantly shouting.

“Wow! The f*cking competition is finally starting! I fell asleep while waiting!”

“Go, young man, go! What are you afraid of? Quickly wave your fist and kill the beast!”

“Weeping corpse bird, hurry up and move! Stomp this high school student to death! I want to see a bloody scene!”

“What’s the use of a f*cking high school student? Are you here to send yourself as food to the fierce beast? You’re so thin, it won’t be full even if it eats you!”

The mixed voices of cheering, ridicule, cursing, and urging swarmed towards the arena.

Even the host, who was very far away, felt his eardrums hurt from the huge waves of cheers and jeers.

The host had no choice but to find something to block his ears. Then, he looked at the audience in disdain, revealing a disgusted expression, and said disdainfully, “What are you barking for?! If this overconfident high school student can last more than ten seconds, I’ll eat sh*t!”

After complaining, the host stretched his back tiredly. He drooped his listless eyes that had thick dark circles under them, wanting to continue resting.

The arena was only open on Saturday and Sunday, so the workload on these two days was extremely heavy for the host.

Fortunately, the duel had been suspended for an hour, so he had time to rest.

Unfortunately, this short hour was not enough to relieve his fatigue. On top of that, to think a human high school student dared to challenge the weeping corpse bird. He would probably be killed in less than three seconds.

Even if the host wanted to slack off, he didn’t have any time at all.

At the thought of this, the host’s face revealed a look of disdain once more. He opened his eyes and looked at the arena.

“Next, the match officially begins!” As the host announced the start of the duel, Su Chen also entered the arena.

In an instant, a disgusting stench came from all directions. The sticky scarlet liquid under his feet turned the entire stage into a bloody swamp.

Fortunately, before the match began, the huge iron chains had limited the weeping corpse bird’s range of movement.

As a result, the scarlet stench on its body did not spread to the entire arena.

Even so, Su Chen definitely did not want to step into the half of the ring that had been contaminated by the weeping corpse bird.

As the host announced the start of the duel, the chains that restrained the weeping corpse bird were finally unlocked.

Thus, its huge body that was oozing stinky blood began to move again.

“Screech!” The weeping corpse bird howled in anger as it looked at the creature on the other half of the stage. The one-meter-plus tall creature was one of the humans who had captured and tortured it!

Its anger took control of its brain. It couldn’t care less what abilities this hateful human before it had. It simply screeched and rushed towards the other party!

The weeping corpse bird’s furious charge was extremely fast. In addition to its huge body that was dyed red by its own blood, the pressure it gave off was extreme.

If it was an ordinary person with insufficient mental strength, they might even be so afraid that their legs would go soft, losing the ability to run when they saw such a huge monster rushing over angrily!

On the high platform, the host seemed to have foreseen the high school student’s death.

He saw that Su Chen was standing still as if he was weak from fear.

Therefore, in the eyes of the host, Su Chen was already a dead man!

Even before the end of the show, the host eagerly picked up his microphone and began to speak, “Oh, the student from Binhai First High seems to be too scared to move! If that’s the case, I’m afraid the only thing waiting for him is death!”

Under the host’s lead, the audience in the stands also felt that Su Chen was a dead man.

Therefore, they didn’t expect the high school student to last long. They only hoped that the weeping corpse bird would stomp him to death!

They hoped that it would step on him until it was a bloody mess!

They hoped that blood would splatter everywhere!

The more exciting the scene was, the more satisfied they would feel!

On the stage, the weeping corpse bird was like a meteor, charging toward Su Chen with a highly terrifying posture.

As it ran madly, its scabbed wounds were constantly torn open, and fresh, hot blood was once again spilled in all directions.

However, even though its body was huge and swollen, even though it was covered in wounds, even though its blood was spraying as it ran, none of this affected its speed!

In a breath or two, the weeping corpse bird had arrived in front of Su Chen!

The terrifying speed, under the boost of its anger, had exceeded everyone’s expectations!

The moment it arrived before Su Chen, the weeping corpse bird abruptly leaped with its bloated body.

Then, it aimed its sharp claws at Su Chen’s head!

In an instant, the weeping corpse bird was like a missile, smashing into the arena!

Even the arena that was made of huge rocks was smashed into pieces by the weeping corpse bird’s terrifying strength, causing a large amount of dust to rise.

The loud rumbling sound was transmitted to the ears of every audience, and at the same time, the scene shocked everyone in the stands.

How could a human win against such a terrifying beast?

“Sigh, what a pity. It seems like our courageous high school student has ultimately died under the weeping corpse bird’s giant claws. Let me count how many seconds he lasted…” The host’s voice sounded, and there was a playful and satisfied smile on his face.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie beside him, interrupting his words.

The host furrowed his brows in anger. As a professional and accomplished host, it was extremely vexing to be interrupted during the process of hosting.

However, this walkie-talkie was directly connected to the boss, so he had to pick it up.

He could only pick up the walkie-talkie in anger and try to calm himself down. Just as he was about to ask what the matter was, the boss’s angry roar came from the other end of the walkie-talkie first, “What are you doing? Why are you hosting like a child? Didn’t you see the gimmick that we promoted for an hour?”

The host was stunned, and his mind went blank. He looked at the walkie-talkie in confusion and asked himself, “What gimmick? What do you mean I’m hosting like a child? I’m the most professional host in the entire Bay Area of Binhai City!”

Just as he was about to question the boss, he caught a glimpse of the arena from the corner of his eye. Then, he saw a scene that was enough to make his jaw drop.

UP.

The high school student who should have been stomped to death by the weeping corpse bird was still alive and standing!
