The Glory of Noxus

[Name: Huo Jixing]

[Essence: 80]

[Strength: 4.15]

[Constitution: 4.22]

[Agility: 4.24]

[Spirit: 5.08]

[Skills: Blade of Conquest, Wilderness Survival, Self-Observation, Photographic Memory]

[Talents: Suzaku·Nanli Fire, Suzaku·Red Eyes and Fire Pupils, Suzaku·Crying, Suzaku·Flowing Fire Feathers, Suzaku·Suzaku·Crop]

Huo Jixing looked at the data panel.

The lighting of Zhang Su Star has improved a lot of physical attributes.

The spiritual attribute has reached 5 points.

He realized that his spirit was almost substantial, spreading throughout his body.

And he could enter the [Self-Observation] state at any time.

Huo Jixing just glanced at the Suzaku star map. Five of the seven stars of Suzaku, hanging upside down in the boundless starry sky, were shining, and the last two were left.

To light up the next star [Yingxiu], 300 essence points are required.

He looked at the remaining 80 essence points on the data panel, and there were still 220 points to meet the demand and light up the star of Yixiu.

"The difference is quite big!"

Huo Jixing thought of Swain's instructions in the palace, frowned slightly, and looked serious.

"Is it life or death, depends on yourself?"

This is a challenge duel initiated by the nobles.

They will definitely go all out to wipe out those who break the rules.

Huo Jixing still has some pressure on this Ring of Fire performance.

If it goes according to his guess.

Not only will the nobles come down to set up the Ring of Fire performance, Swain will also carefully select a handy "weapon" for him.

Maybe he can seek help from Darius and Kled?

After pondering for a while, Huo Jixing finally decided to rely on himself.

His eyes fell on the attributes such as strength and constitution on the data panel.

Add some attributes!

This is the solution he came up with.

Compared with strength, agility and mental attributes, Huo Jixing felt that physical attributes might be the biggest improvement for him.

The fire of Nanli uses flesh and blood as fuel.

The improvement of physical fitness can accommodate and use more Nanli fire, maximizing his combat ability.

"Wait, 50 points of essence?"

Huo Jixing's consciousness just fell on physical fitness, and the data panel sent a system prompt to consume 50 points of essence.

Isn't it 10 points of essence?

He remembered that at the beginning, consuming 10 points of essence could improve 1 point of physical fitness.

Now it needs 50 points of essence.

Is this robbery?

Huo Jixing was powerless to attack the black heart of the data panel, and then he thought for a while and understood.

The previous low number of essences was because he had just arrived in Valoran at that time, and his physical fitness was relatively weak.

Now, his physical fitness has been trained and burned by the fire of Nanli, which is already four times that of ordinary people.

If he wants to continue to improve, the number of essences required should also increase as a matter of course.

It seems that it is not a good thing for his physical attributes to be so high. Huo Jixing thought secretly.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and added it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the moment when the essence was put in.

Huo Jixing felt the changes brought about by the improvement of his physical fitness.

The red-gold blood flowing in his body began to heat up rapidly, like molten lava, baking and calcining flesh and bones.

Crunch! Crunch!

Huo Jixing's bare-chested body made a bone friction sound, as if it was gently expanding.

He could hear the sound of blood flowing and feel that his muscles were strengthening, just like steel that was tempered a hundred times, becoming more and more tough under thousands of hammerings.

And this feeling, Huo Jixing seemed to have returned to the time when he first awakened [Talent·Star Spirit·Suzaku]. His body was in constant pain, but the feeling of becoming stronger was unforgettable.

"Hmm!"

Huo Jixing groaned. Facing the sudden change, he seemed to be burned by fire, and the risers on his body spit out fire.

The blood in his body was boiling, and the red-gold Nanli Fire permeated his body.

"Huh!"

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Jixing exhaled lightly, opened his eyes, and a red glow lingered for a long time.

[Physique: 5.22]!

Huo Jixing looked at the data panel, and his physique attribute had surpassed his spirit.

At the same time, he deeply felt the changes in his body.

Not only did his physical strength and endurance change, but his body's toughness also improved.

He also found that the red sac under his stomach had also grown slightly, which could store more Nanli Fire.

If you calculate it carefully.

The Nanli Fire stored in the crop of the Vermilion Bird is equivalent to one-tenth of the blood in his body.

Time passed, and he ran forward like a fool.

Under Draven's care, Huo Jixing became the most special liquidator of the Knoxkaria Arena -

with his own independent room and training ground, and a chef serving him at all times.

Huo Jixing also took advantage of this convenient condition, adapted to the changes in his body, and tried to digest what he had gained.

Unfortunately, even if his physical fitness was improved, it did not cause any changes in his skills.

His skills were still at the level of conquest, and he could never take the last step.

The last day before the Ring of Fire performance.

When Huo Jixing was meditating with his eyes closed, he sensed a familiar breath appearing outside the door.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Draven in military uniform walking in.

"Very nice clothes, very suitable for your temperament." Huo Jixing stood up and pointed at the emerald green military uniform Draven was wearing, with a relaxed expression.

The well-tailored military uniform perfectly reflects Draven's sexy muscle lines. The gray-white wolfskin cape is draped on his shoulders, which fits his temperament and style.

"Haha, I had people rush to make this." Draven laughed softly.

Then his eyes were cold and his tone was low: "Those nobles will treat you with the highest standards of the arena."

"Just like the former undefeated Viscero!"

Before Draven, the most popular liquidator in the Noxian Empire's arena was——

The Undefeated Viscero!

He told everyone with 100% victory that he was invincible.

However, during the later period of Brown Darkwill's reign, Viscero the Undefeated was sent to the battlefield of Demacia and eventually disappeared.

Hearing this, Huo Jixing had already been mentally prepared, so it was not too unexpected.

After all, he is the one who challenges the rules, and he must use his failure and blood to warn those who come after him.

"Are my rune weapons ready?" Huo Jixing asked.

Bang bang! Bang bang!

Draven clapped his hands, and the armored sword boy Heini walked in holding a long black wooden box.

"Already made."

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Heini in front of him, and reached out to rub this guy's head.

Then he opened the black wooden box, and a long, sharp red knife came into view.

The knife is about four feet long, with a handle of one foot and two inches.

The blade resembles a grass seedling, embellished with fine patterns; the blade where the cold light shines is smeared with red.

There are flame patterns extending from the handle of the knife. If you look closely, they look like claw marks.

"This is made of the sharp claws of the Flame Claw Cat, which can provide fire damage." Draven pointed to the claw mark on the handle of the knife and introduced it aloud.

"Although the time is a bit short, this is a rune weapon I created using favors."

Huo Jixing held the long red knife and whispered to himself when he saw the name engraved on the handle.

"Red fire!"

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

He immediately waved the red fire, and under the brilliant sword light, the red shadow lingered around him like a flower.

"Very handy." Huo Jixing looked at Draven and expressed his gratitude.

"I'm looking forward to your performance even more!" Delevingne looked slightly relieved, with a smile on his lips.

He couldn't help himself when he thought about the genius level of punishment and skill level that Huo Jixing had shown before.

I can't even wait to watch Huo Jixing's performance.

"Do you own the spoils you get in the arena?"

Seeing Delevingne preparing to leave, Huo Jixing asked his inner doubts.

Since the nobles have expressed their all-out efforts, there will definitely be runic items appearing in the Ring of Flames performance, and there may be more than one.

This was an opportunity that he couldn't let go, as he was now penniless.

"Of course, the winner will have everything that the loser has." Draven paused and turned around to answer.

"That's the best!" Huo Jixing looked satisfied and nodded lightly.

He then walked to his training ground to get used to the red fire.

Late at night in winter.

The dim moonlight, like light snow, fell on the outermost circular arcade of the arena.

The cold wind blew by, and a hazy light and shadow emerged.

Follow the established direction and enter the underground prison of the Knox Scalia Arena.

He stopped in front of a dark and silent cell.

"Want to go out?"

Buzz!

In the dark cell, a young face with white hair raised his head, his eyes like sharp swords, piercing the black shadow.

puff!

The black phantom that had just risen was shattered.

A slender figure in a black robe stood like a rose with thorns, bringing an alluring fragrance.

"Is it you, Black Rose?"

"Tomorrow there will be a seven-day Ring of Fire gladiatorial performance. We need you to execute a target on the last day of the performance." A soft voice sounded.

"This is your best chance to escape prison!"

"I can't trust you!" The prisoner with white hair said quietly.

Even the trauma of the past is never forgotten.

But she is still loyal to the empire and to this place where she has fought hard.

The slender figure in a black robe seemed to be unable to bear it. Black energy emerged from the palm of his hand, and ripples filled the air.

In recent times, this is the second time someone has rejected Black Rose's invitation.

"The sword reflects the heart of the warrior! And my heart is dark and broken." The prisoner with white hair whispered softly.

"But it's not something that black roses can infect."

puff!

The black energy in the palm of my hand disappeared.

The slender figure in a black robe looked deeply at the prisoner.

"You are already in shackles and are about to be judged. Why are you still stubborn?"

The seemingly ordinary words were like sharp blades, penetrating deeply into the prisoner's heart, making her eyes shudder.

Silence prevailed.

The slender figure in black robe disappeared upon seeing this, leaving a black mark like a rose on the spot.

"The Noxian Empire!"

The white-haired prisoner looked at the wall, his sword-like eyes seeming to see beyond the solid wall to the increasingly prosperous Noxus capital.

She didn't know what her fate would be, or whether she would have a chance to become her whole self again.

But this is her homeland!
