I went to the colosseum immediately after Uncle Du left me alone. I bought a mask for myself on the way, as per his suggestion, and also took my spear with me. Every since I had the spatial ring, it got extremely convenient to bring everything that I owned along with me wherever I went. I had food, money, and clothes stored in there just in case something went wrong.

I went to the desk for the registration.

"Name?" the man behind the desk asked me.

"Gray." I said.

"Interesting name. I am guessing that you are not around here? Afraid of showing your face are you? Dont worry, many are. As long as you do not piss of the wrong people, you will be fine. You will go through a few fights before you are assigned a rank. What is your cultivation?" he asked.

"8th layer of the Qi Condensation Realm." I said.

"Alright. Put your hands on the wheel you see there. We will confirm your cultivation and age." he said, gesturing at the round wheel that was sitting over there. I nodded, and put my hand over the device.

"16 years old? You must be talented, to enter the 8th layer in such a young age. You should go to one of the families and try your luck at becoming a retainer. That way, you can get some resources. Pity, you were not born into them. But what can we do about that?" he laughed as he threw a wooden token towards me.

"You will wait in ring five. Eventually, they will call your number which is on the token. You have to stay in the ring as long as you can." the man said.

"Can I use a weapon?" I asked.

"What do you think this is? A noblemen fight? You just need to win. As for how, that is up to you." the man smiled. I could see that one of his teeth was broken, and another shined with a golden tint. The man was definitely sketchy, but I did not have the liberty to choose right now.

I nodded and headed into the colosseum. It was a huge ground and segregated into multiple fighting arenas. Just a place for fights to take place. That was all this was. I poured Qi into the spatial ring, and my spear appeared in my hands. I made sure that no one saw me do this because if they did, I would be in trouble. I did not want to get mugged now when there were god knows how many fighting maniacs out there.

I headed to the ring number five, and stood there motionless. This was going to be my first actual fight, and I would probably see blood. Whether it was mine, or my opponent's, it was going to be a terrifying experience. I calmed myself. That part was easy. Three months in solitary confinement can do wonders. My head was cool, and my heart beat stabilized. For the last week, I trained in the Iron Body art, and the blue dragon art. I knew that I was powerful enough to go against a few people. Especially because I had the system teach me how the proper way to use the spear was.

"Number 250 to number 259, enter the ring." a monotone voice called out. I was number 256, so I was also called on. I gripped the spear hard and jumped onto the ring.

"System. Put one stat point into agility, strength and stamina." I said.

"Error. Stamina cannot be increased using stat points. Only strength and agility can be increased. Increasing strength and agility by one point." the system said.

"I can't even increase my stamina? What bull is that? Well, not the time to complain." I muttered as I looked at everyone else who got onto the ring. There were people of all shapes and sizes, but none of them were below the age of twenty. All of them had scars on their bodies, and they were clearly veterans at this. I was the only noob.

"The last one standing will win the pot. Fight." someone shouted, and immediately, everyone moved. I could see every movement clearly. Every single one of them pounced at me. Seeing how young I looked, and that I did not have a single scar on my skin, it was clear that I was the easiest target.

I jumped. I jumped over them all and landed on the other edge of the ring, now facing all nine others. They were together, and looked at each other with apprehension. They started fighting amongst themselves, not holding back.

Blood flew in the air, and the smell was horrible. But I composed myself. I pointed the spear towards the man who was charging at me. He was an old man, and he did not even have a shirt. His upper body was riddled with scars, and his appearance frightened me.

I took the support of my back leg and drew the spear back. My eyes closed for a moment. I needed all the concentration that I could get. Then, they reopened with a glow. Qi coursed through my veins and to the spear's tip. He pounced, and I thrust my spear.

Grrrrr

The spear growled. It was like there was a real dragon slumbering behind the spear. The old man's expression changed, and he turned his body, trying to avoid the spear. I did not move the spear though. My intention was not to kill. It was to subdue. I moved to the side, and right in front of his side, which was unguarded.

All I had to do was punch. And punch I did. Since I was at the edge of the ring, just this little nudge was enough to throw him out of bounds.

"Number 252 is eliminated."
