The Glory of Noxus

In the silent room.

Huo Jixing leaned on the wooden chair and read the parchment in his hand with a casual expression.

"Aren't you nervous?" Heini, the sword boy, looked at the leisurely and contented Huo Jixing and couldn't help but asked.

“Relax your mind.”

Huo Jixing looked away and looked at Heini who was oiling the red fire blade.

"It's just a show. What we have to do is simple, make this show more bloody and exciting!"

As an excellent sword boy, Heini has his own way to avoid the erosion of runes and magical energy.

This is also the skill taught to sword boys by the Noxus Empire.

"But I'm still worried."

Heini wanted to say something, but didn't know how to persuade him. In the end, he chose to deal with the red fire blade in his hand.

He needs to provide Huo Jixing with sharp sword blades and strong armor at all times.

Looking at Heini who was carefully handling the Red Fire Blade, Huo Jixing shook his head slightly.

He was a little surprised to see Haynie in the Knox Scalia Arena, thinking it was Wilson's idea.

But Haynie's arrival can indeed help him.

Huo Jixing lowered his head and looked at the parchment in his hand, which was filled with dense information.

Then he put his hands together casually.

The parchment was provided by Draven and contained intelligence information about the Ring of Fire's performance.

After all, Draven is the owner of the Knox Scalia Arena and must have first-hand information about the Liquidator.

He also read all the information in detail.

As for authenticity, you need to identify it yourself.

And this is only fixed liquidator intelligence information. It does not rule out that the nobles will have substitutes or do some tricks.

Huo Jixing rested his head on his left hand, looked out the window at the bright sunshine, and took out a green gem necklace from his neck.

It was a morning gift from Darius.

The Hand of Noxus seems to be fair and just, but it also has the hidden attribute of being a protector.

Facing the sunshine, Huo Jixing looked at the familiar green gem necklace in his hand, which looked very much like the first rune item he got.

The green gemstone necklace in front of me has no trace of damage. The green gemstone in the middle is pure and flawless, with a clear luster.

【Healing Orb】!

Huo Jixing recognized the name of this green gem necklace and also experienced the rune properties it had.

The self-healing ability is very good and can be combined with Nanli Fire.

He thought of the Ring of Fire, which lasted seven days, and savored the significance of Darius' offering of the green stone necklace.

"call!"

Huo Jixing took a breath and saw that it was almost time and was ready to leave.

The waiting sword boy Heini stepped forward and dressed Huo Jixing in dark gray solid armor, carefully handling every joint.

"It seems like a lot has changed!"

Huo Jixing stared at himself in the mirror. He seemed to be no longer the same as before, a little cold and solemn.

Such is the way of the world.

He himself never expected that the bottom layer of the Noxus Empire was already rotten, leading him to be involved in the pension incident.

Huo Jixing rubbed his face, put away his distracting thoughts, and calmed down.

Relaxing before a fight is good for your body and mind.

After leaving the prison, Huo Jixing took Heini to the high platform of the arena.

His show is the finale of the night, and other liquidators can be seen performing during the day.

"It's a little early."

Delevingne leaned on the high stone base and looked around Huo Jixing.

"You seem confident."

"Haha, not bad." Huo Jixing laughed softly.

He understands that he enjoys privileges because of his own strength, not anything else.

Based on the importance of this Ring of Fire performance, he has done everything he can to improve his combat capabilities.

While Huo Jixing was talking to Draven, he looked at the intricately arranged arena.

Noxian soldiers have been stationed at every key location among the auditoriums throughout the arena to prevent unrest.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

While he was waiting, a roaring sound suddenly came from the sky.

Huo Jixing heard the news and went out. On the streets outside the Noxskalia Arena, an endless stream of people, tens of thousands of Noxians, surged forward along the avenues.

More than ten different languages ​​rang out, including original prayers, slogans and war songs, many sounds mixed and superimposed together.

More Noxians followed them, creeping in and out.

Huo Jixing was stunned when he saw this spectacular scene and this pure display of power.

"This is the stage I want!"

Draven stood up, stood side by side, and looked down at the crowd.

After several days of publicity, the upcoming Ring of Fire gladiatorial show in the Knox Scalia Arena spread throughout the capital of Noxus and nearby cities.

The number of people pouring into the arena in front of him alone was already over 10,000.

As time passed, more and more Noxians appeared in the arena.

The back two areas of the auditorium were almost full, and the two middle areas were also full of people, whispering to each other.

The seats of honor with the best security measures were also packed.

Thanks to the pension incident, most nobles in the Noxus capital will send representatives here, or come in person.

Wait until noon.

The audience's emotions and fiery atmosphere gradually rose, surrounding the arena.

"Hello, fellow gladiatorial competition fans, are you ready for the arrival of the Ring of Fire?" the arena announcer's voice sounded.

Without waiting for the audience to react.

The arena announcer saw that the mood and atmosphere had reached a peak, and loudly announced the start of the Ring of Fire performance.

"Let's welcome the arrival of the Ring of Fire performance!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Below the audience seats, on the top of the wall of the yellow sand arena, wooden barrels rolled down one by one in the interval between the two, falling on the yellow sand ground, and turbid and pungent liquid spilled.

Then, Noxus soldiers threw pieces of flint.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The hot orange-red flames suddenly rose, burning fiercely, baking and twisting the air, reflecting crazy faces.

"Wow!"

Under the stimulation of the soaring flames, the noise in the audience stands rose, like a surging wave, ups and downs.

Creak! Creak!

On the north and south sides, huge steel doors opened.

Two sturdy men with bare upper bodies and sharp blades in hand entered the Huangsha Arena.

"Is it Luo Er?"

Huo Jixing looked at the familiar person in the arena and was surprised.

The Gray Wolf gang members who had been seen at the bottom of the slums met in the arena after a long journey.

"Now, the first performance officially begins."

Clang!

As soon as the arena announcer finished speaking, the two liquidators who were confronting each other started fighting forcefully without any verbal provocation.

The blades in their hands collided, making a dull sound.

From a distance, the two men were like hungry beasts that had escaped from their cages, fighting for life and death, and every knife fell on the vital position.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

However, in a moment, scars of scarlet scars appeared on the bare bodies of the two men who had no means of protection.

The gorgeous performance skills, angry roars, and the spray of scarlet blood completely ignited every audience.

They used shouts to release the repressed emotions deep in their hearts.

"It's still a little too deliberate, but it's exaggerated enough!"

Huo Jixing looked at the 'wonderful' battle in the arena and saw that it was a bloody show that was agreed upon.

The seemingly hideous injuries were just skin breaks and bleeding.

With medical staff on the sidelines, there was no threat to life at all.

"Huh?" Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly.

He saw that in the arena, when Roll's opponent won in the end, as if he had received advance instructions, the blade that fell on his shoulder suddenly slashed towards his neck.

Puff!

The sharp blade cut across the aorta, and the gushing blood dyed the body of the liquidator red.

He looked at Roll, who fell to the ground helplessly, his eyes flickered, and he pressed hard on the blade embedded in his neck, ending Roll's life.

Seeing the birth of death.

The atmosphere of the Knoxkaria Arena reached a climax, and countless noises resounded through the sky.

Huo Jixing chuckled, glanced at Draven inconspicuously, and continued to watch.

The medical staff and cleaning staff waiting on the sidelines quickly dragged away the body and cleaned the ground.

The second performance continued.

It was still a battle between ordinary people.

Huo Jixing looked over and saw that the skill level was decent and the performance effect was also good.

Although there was no death, it still caused cheers from the audience.

The third performance changed from a single-person fight to a team duel.

Two teams, a total of ten people, staged a military battle in the center of the Huangsha Arena.

They were also shirtless, but wearing helmets, fighting with swords and shields.

Amid the shouts of the audience, they fought hard and staged a bloody show.

The sun set in the west, and the evening glow filled the sky.

The intermission period of the Knoxkalia Arena.

Huo Jixing left the platform and returned to the separate preparation area.

His appearance was the finale, and all the previous performances were foreshadowing.

In order to present the most perfect performance, he quickly calmed down and entered the state of [Inner Contemplation].

With the audience cheering loudly, the gladiatorial performance continued.

Creak!

The door opened, and the young Noxian soldier walked in, looking at Huo Jixing in awe.

"Your performance will start soon!"

Huo Jixing opened his eyes, his face very relaxed.

He looked at the young Noxian soldier, and under his guidance, he walked along the dark passage.

After a while.

Huo Jixing heard deafening cheers and the ending voice of the arena announcer.

Now it seems that the Ring of Flame performance proposed by Draven is very successful.

Of course, it is also because of the chaos during the reign of Bron Darkwell, which brought serious trauma to the Noxian Empire and plunged every Noxian into a dark life.

The current Ring of Flame performance is a performance that completely releases inner emotions.

"Dear gladiatorial fans, now is the last performance of the day, let's take a look at the two sides." The arena announcer's emotions are getting higher and higher.

"Wow, it's Suzaku versus the Tauren Reckoner from the Grand Barrier."

Perhaps the name provided by Huo Jixing was too difficult to pronounce.

The arena announcer paused a little, but it did not affect the enthusiastic atmosphere in the audience at all.

Creaky! Creaky!

The dark gray iron door moved upwards, and the scorching temperature hit him.

Huo Jixing had just walked out of the dark passage, and the noisy shouts that suddenly sounded shook his ears and disturbed his heart.

He looked up at the audience in the arena, and his heart, as calm as water, began to ripple.

Whether it was the war in Freljord or the viewing on the high platform.

It was far from the immersive feeling now.

No action is needed.

He could feel the blood boiling in his body and the restless emotions impacting his nerves.

"It's such a wonderful feeling, no wonder Draven is so addicted!"

Huo Jixing took a deep breath, suppressed his inner emotions, held the knife in his left hand, and walked into the yellow sand arena.

The yellow sand on the ground was a little hot under the burning of the flames around him.

Huo Jixing looked into the iron gate that was open in front of him, and there were heavy footsteps.

Tauren Liquidator!

The Tauren tribe active in the magnificent barrier became a subordinate force under the conquest of Noxus.

They are natural heavy warriors and shield guards.

At the same time, they are favored by the arena owners and are often sold to the arena as trading targets to become liquidators.

As soon as the Tauren Liquidator walked out of the iron gate, the cheers in the audience were so loud that they blew away the dark clouds in the sky.

These minotaur liquidators were wearing special heavy armor, and sharp barbs flashed coldly on the joints of their hands and feet.

Their bodies were like hills, and every step they took would bring loud cheers.

It was much more enthusiastic than Huo Jixing's appearance.

Of course, such cheers would only appear in a few areas where ordinary people were present.

In the areas of citizens with higher status, such as the honor seats and knights, many people just watched from the sidelines.

In their eyes, the minotaur liquidators could only be regarded as elite heavy infantry.

However, when they saw ten minotaur liquidators coming out one after another, their expressions began to change, and the ordinary audience did not hesitate to shout.

"Is this trying to use the tactics in Baron Calvin's mansion?"

In the Huangsha Arena, Huo Jixing stared at the ten minotaur liquidators in front of him, wearing heavy armor and holding black steel siege stakes in their arms, and his thoughts came to his mind.

In the battle not long ago, the six war weapons did restrain their own performance by virtue of their power.

But that was in the past.

Now this method no longer works in front of him!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Heavy footsteps trampled the yellow sand ground, shaking up the yellow sand dust and turning it into a sandstorm.

As soon as the ten minotaur liquidators stepped into the yellow sand arena, they ran wildly across the sand like heavy trucks running at full power, pointing directly at Huo Jixing.

Their horns drooped, their muscular arms clasped the steel siege stakes in their hands, bursting out all their strength.

It can be seen that the air in front of them was being squeezed, and circles of semicircular khaki light shields quickly condensed.

"Look carefully, learn well!"

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered, and he made the most exaggerated movements in full view of the crowd.

He ignored the minotaur liquidators who were about to approach him, turned around slowly, saluted the surrounding audience, and enjoyed their shrill and fanatical exclamations.

Yes, saluting!

In the eyes of ordinary people in the audience, Huo Jixing's current behavior is to completely give up this performance and step into the arms of death.

The next moment!

Huo Jixing finished his ceremony, drew out the red fire blade from his waist, and stepped forward.

[Suzaku·Nanli Fire]!

[Suzaku·Red Eyes and Fire Pupils]!

Staring at the Minotaur Liquidator approaching him with red eyes, Huo Jixing held the long sword tightly with both hands and swung it from bottom to top.

In an instant!

The long sword danced, and the flames overflowed.

Even the flames burning around the arena danced with it and soared into the sky.

Bathed in the violent flames.

Huo Jixing's eyes narrowed, and his eyes fell on the flaws of the Minotaur Liquidator.

Then, like red lightning, he swung the blade covered with Nanli Fire, cutting through the steel siege piles and the special heavy armor.

Clang!

The red fire returned to the sheath.

Huo Jixing stepped towards the dark passage from when he came.

Under the audience's puzzled gaze, the Minotaur Reckoner, who was supposed to be running non-stop, was like a crumbling mountain.

The armor was broken and the body was separated.

Mixed with broken steel fragments, they fell all over the yellow sand arena.

The audience was completely boiling, and the roar that resounded through the sky seemed to detonate the Noxcaria Arena and shake the solid walls.

They witnessed the most exciting performance tonight!

The performer was also a fire transcendent!
