Watching powerful humans fight Demon Beasts to the death in the gladiatorial arena was a hallmark of the rich and powerful. Chu Lingguang had never set foot inside one, let alone imagined that he would one day be fighting a Demon Beast there himself.
To become a spectacle for the scions of nobility.
However, both he and Guo Wei understood that Mr. Du had arranged this to foster his growth, allowing him to fight a Demon Beast in a relatively safe environment.
An Attendant from Du's Mansion escorted Chu Lingguang to the gladiatorial arena. After Chu Lingguang presented the numbered bamboo slip given to him by Du Wushuang, he was led by the staff into a narrow corridor. There, he was first given a black mask. Once he put it on, Chu Lingguang was ushered into a large, circular hall.
Inside the hall, a dozen or so people in black masks were scattered about. Some were sitting and resting, some were performing Breathing and Exhaling exercises, and others were polishing their weapons.
