Chapter 1087: No Same Sky Martial Platform (2/2)

There were totally three life and death battle arenas in this place. Two of these platforms spanned about two kilometers and four kilometers on all sides, making it possess an area of four square kilometers and sixteen square kilometers, respectively. The last and final martial platform spanned about ten kilometers on all sides, making it the biggest by far!

It possessed an area of hundred square kilometers!

However, when they arrived at this open area space, what garnered their attention wasn't the size of the martial platform but the surface's color!

It was a structure that reeked of blood-red crimson! Even the air was pervaded with the stench of blood!

”Is that human blood...?” Evelynn frowned as she looked at the surface, painted red.

'That's not blood paint or a type of material, right?' She thought.

”Your esteemed-self is right,” Edgar Alstreim, who stood hovering on the air in front of them, explained, ”In every battle taking place in these martial platforms, at least one person dies without fail. Sometimes, you can see even both the cultivators as they would self-destruct, taking their target of vengeance with them.”

”Tens of cultivators die here every day, and the blood staining the surface isn't cleaned because it's a reminder that the members of the family should always be united.”

”If there's such a reminder, why do the authorities allow so many cultivators to throw themselves towards this pit of death?” Evelynn couldn't understand.

”Benefits...” Edgar Alstreim let out a single word from his mouth before he descended towards the most bloodied martial platform.

It was the second-longest martial platform where Sixth Stage and Seventh Stage Cultivators fought to the death! Not only was it the most active stage that decided the life and death of cultivators, but it also was the one which the people here mostly came for!

Indeed, when Evelynn looked around, she saw that there were more people in the skies watching over the second martial platform. Even though no one was currently battling, it looked as if they were waiting for someone to join a battle to the death.

”What are they-”

”Obviously, it's a business for them. They bet on the winner or loser to profit.”

Before Evelynn could even finish posing her question, Davis gave her the answer. He felt a bit amused since Isabella also asked a similar thing when they considered visiting the No Same Sky Martial Platform.

Evelynn coldly looked at them. She felt that it was somewhat fine if they were completely unrelated but weren't they all from the same family, same blood? She was rather angered to see such heartless people exist.

She abhorred them due to her past. After all, as a lesser talented Young Mistress of the Cauldon Family, she was the target of bullying and harassment for a long while in the Cauldon Family before Davis was the only outsider who looked at her for who she was!

She then cast her gaze away, no longer willing to look at those disgusting people, but her sight landed on the third yet biggest martial platform.

Because of the vast size, she could instantly tell that only Peak-Level Law Dominion Stage and Law Sea Stage Experts were allowed to battle to the death in it. Moreover, the blood painting on the surface was less compared to the other two martial platforms.

'Of course, the Elders and Grand Elders would try their best to stop Peak-Level Law Dominion Stage Experts from killing themselves...' She understood without having to be given an explanation.

As for Law Sea Stage Experts, she thought that they rarely fought. Perhaps, a battle to the death between two Eighth Stage Experts wouldn't even take place for a few decades or even a century! After all, the battle between Eighth Stage Experts always had the power to make the core of the family tremble.

Perhaps, their struggles would be defused beforehand, not to mention that battle between Law Sea Stage Experts mostly involved underhanded methods like schemes since they couldn't openly kill each other. Even if they have an utter trash character, they would still be needed by the family unless they went overboard with their actions.

So she could see that this platform might only be used at times of utter need, literally meaning that one could only use if they cannot live under the same sky, just like the name of the martial platform meant.
