章 133: The Battle of the Coliseum (part 1)

The enormous grid, more than 6 metres wide and 5 metres high, opposite the Imperial box, began to creak slowly upwards. The reflection of the long rectangular Myrmidian shields in a tight row could be seen behind it despite the darkness of the corridor.

Jake and all the other Throsgenian gladiators turned cautiously toward the great grid, ready to face whatever would come out of that passage. Kyle and Sarah moved to Jake's side, while the already weakened Will stood very close behind them. To Sarah's right stood Erwin with his heavy shield and long sword. He seemed determined to protect the young woman.

To the left of Kyle, Hugo and Thomas formed another duo. Away, but not so far away, Lu Yan and her brother formed another fearsome pair. The difference was that instead of being on the front line, the siblings had mixed with the rest of the recruits to the great despair of Lu Yifeng, who could not understand why his sister was acting like that.

BADUM! BADUM! BADUM!
