Immediately, the eight others on the ring looked at me with shock. They clearly did not expect me to defeat whoever that was in such a short time. Or rather, for me to defeat that old man at all.

"It looks like I underestimated you, boy." a middle aged man with a scar that ran along his face said with a grin.

"It looks like you also forget that this is a free for all. The people next to you are not your friends. They will not sit quietly while you talk." I said. I was hoping that this would move the others, and attack the middle aged man before he could react. But, it looked like they were all in cahoots. They just stood there, not moving.

"You will be the first to go boy. We will make sure of it. You are the only one that we do not know that well, and we cannot afford to have someone like that who is so unpredictable staying in the ring. You should understand the need for what we are about to do." he laughed.

"The need? All I can see is that a few men are bullying a poor young boy who cannot even defend himself. Is this all that the colosseum amounts to? A few men who are incapable of fighting on their own?" I taunted the man.

"I have lived twice the life that you have. I know a taunt when I see one, and I know that I should not react to it. There are times when we can react to such silly mistakes, and there are times when we can do nothing of the sort. We are veterans. We know that this is the latter." he smiled.

"Damn it. This is a set up. That is what this is. The only time that I actually did come out to fight, the whole gang is coming to beat me up. How is this fair in any way?" I cursed as I pointed the spear at them. The middle aged man smiled.

"The spear is a hard weapon to master. And it is clear that you have not done so. You can just drop the pretense and give up. That will save you from getting hurt. I know that you do not want to see a few limbs missing. You should know that the colosseum is not responsible if anything happens to you, short of you losing your life." he said as he started walking towards me.

I took a step back, and I could feel the edge of the ring rub on me. A single mistake and I could lose any moment now. The man quickened his pace, and everyone behind him also started moving. They charged at me. They had weapons of their own, and it was no time for me to start the Blue Dragon Spear Art. I needed to react immediately. I clashed with the weapons. My spear held off a sword here and an axe there. Sparks flew in the air. My arms pained whenever some thing hard hit the spear. I had to face the brunt of the attack, and my muscles were not having it.

The middle aged man jumped at me with his fists clamped together. He was ready to hit me on my head, and if that hit, I would probably be knocked out. I moved to the side immediately, and that was a mistake that cost me dearly.

Slam!

A hammer hit me in the side almost the second I moved to the side. It was like they were anticipating my movement. I flew to the side, almost falling off the ring. But the Iron Body Art was showing its greatness now. There was pain, but my skin was like metal. It took the attack and stayed whole. I was not knocked out, or half dead.

I stood up on my shaking knees. The fight was getting to me. This was the first time that there was so many people just running towards me, ready to kill me. I could not face them all on my own. I needed to separate them like I did the old man. I needed to finish them one by one if I wanted to win.

I knew that Qi would be instrumental in my win. I circulated it according to the Blue Dragon art. They left me for a few seconds, and these seconds were precious. I started getting ready for the second stroke of the art. One of the men, this one thin and limber, was in the air, falling towards me.

By the time that he was near me, I jumped up as well, coming to the same height as him. But unlike him, I had a spear. He couldn't reach me, but I could. I thrust the spear, and this time it connected.

Splurt!

Blood fell out of where the spear connected. It was just a graze at the side, but it was enough to make my stomach turn. This was the first time that I had injured someone like this. I forced my stomach to settle down. I could not take a revolt of my own senses right now. The thin man fell onto the ground, and I kicked him. I kicked him hard.

The strength stat must have also applied to my legs. The thin man fell out of the ring as he flew out. I looked at the others.

"Looks like you are right about one thing. All of you need to gang up to have a chance to win. You were right to be cautious of me. But I am not going to be merciful." I said as I spat out a little blood from my mouth. It must have come after that hammer struck me.

I raised my hand. Seven fingers, with my spear tucked under my arm.

"Two gone. Seven of you remain." I smiled.
