Pah!
Fresh red blood dripped down, and a clear sound resounded out, causing the hearts of everyone present to be unable to help but tremble violently. Their expressions were dazed, and their hearts trembled without end.
What exactly happened just now?
Everyone had a confused expression on their faces. Not only Qu Tenghai, but also the warriors of the Challenge Competition who had been paying attention to this scene. All of their eyes were wide open, and they recalled everything that had happened in front of them just now.
They saw Ye Xiao walk onto the stage. Before he stepped onto the stage, he had already pulled out the shining silver long blade.
All of these were normal.
As a martial artist, how could he not have a convenient divine weapon?
On the other side, on the arena, Lia Jun slowly straightened his body. He took out the huge sword that was embedded into the arena and smiled. The expression on his face was no longer as fierce as before. Obviously, it was because of Hua Yi'er that he restrained his killing intent. However, his fighting intent was still rising.
Looking at his appearance, everyone knew that the Challenge Competition wouldn't be stained with blood anymore. Even if Ye Xiao wasn't a match for him, he wouldn't be ruthless. Of course, at that moment, no one had ever thought that Ye Xiao would be able to defeat Lia Jun.
On one side, it was easy.
On the other side, it was also as calm as water.
Anyone would think that this was a battle without suspense. However, the moment Ye Xiao stepped onto the arena and announced that the battle had begun, a shocking scene happened.
Hu!
"That was a gust of wind just now?"
At this moment, everyone realized that even their memories had become blurry at this moment. It was no longer as vivid as before. They recalled that Ye Xiao's figure had suddenly become blurry, and then...
There was nothing after that.
It was this scene in front of them.
The long blade was sharp and stood in front of Lia Jun's throat. The latter was still in the same position as before, but his face was incomparably solemn. He looked at Ye Xiao who was very close to him, and his pupils shrank to the size of a needle.
"He's actually this strong?"
"He is not weak!"
After a long time, everyone finally woke up from the shock brought by the Challenge Competition. The way they looked at Ye Xiao had changed.
Strong!
Especially the speed of his movement technique, it had left an unforgettable impression on everyone.
Genius?
An underestimation of a young genius?
No wonder he dared to say those words just now. It turned out that it was not because he was young and frivolous, but because he really had such strength!
As for whether his strength really surpassed Lia Jun's... No one present dared to say that, especially when this was the Ardent Sun Clan's home ground. But there was one thing that didn't need to be doubted, and that was...
In this match, Lia Jun had lost!
"He won?"
"I really won?"
Qu Tenghai looked at this scene in a daze. He could not believe his own glasses. It was as if he was in a dream. He looked at the fifty crystals that he had accidentally dropped on the gambling table.
No.
How could this be fifty crystals?
This was five hundred thousand!
He was stunned. He was completely overwhelmed by this sudden huge surprise and nearly fainted. Such a large number was something he would never dare to think of in his entire life!
However, at this moment, not many people cared about him. Almost everyone's gaze was firmly fixed on the arena, feeling the seriousness of the atmosphere.
Lia Jun was injured!
Moreover, he was defeated in an instant. He had been incomparably arrogant since he was young. Could he really endure such humiliation?
Right at this moment -
Hu!
Ye Xiao withdrew the long saber in his hand and took a step back. With an apologetic expression, he said:
"Sorry."
"My control over my power is still a little weak. I am sorry that I accidentally hurt you."
Ye Xiao sheathed his blade!
Seeing this scene, everyone's hearts slightly moved. At the same time that they were somewhat surprised, the nervousness in their hearts also gradually eased a little. It was very obvious. Ye Xiao didn't really want to kill Lia Jun. Otherwise, Lia Jun would have died a long time ago!
Ye Xiao's current action was undoubtedly kind. Everyone could see the sincerity on his face. However, most people thought this way, but it didn't mean that everyone thought so. For example, the one standing in front of Ye Xiao at this moment -
Lia Jun!
Or, it could be said that he didn't accept the goodwill coming from Ye Xiao's action. He saw the long blade move away from his throat, and the cold edge was no longer there. His eyes shook again, but his mind was not filled with the scene of Ye Xiao taking the long blade away. It was full of the step Ye Xiao took after stepping onto the arena, and the blade he swung out!
Fast!
It was just one word, fast!
At that moment, he felt as if he had seen a bolt of lightning roaring towards him. Although his sixth sense was incomparably powerful, it was still too late when he sensed that something was wrong the moment Ye Xiao took that step forward.
The entire arena was only that big, it was only a thousand feet in radius. How long could he react for?
There was no reaction at all!
He lost?
Unlike what most people thought, he did not care about that. The blood in his body surged, and his fighting spirit soared into the sky. It was like billowing smoke and smoke that could not be stopped, charging straight at Niu Dou.
Just when everyone thought that this match would end with Ye Xiao drawing back his long blade, and Ye Xiao was even about to send the lightning back to the Spiritual Ring, a low roar suddenly sounded on the arena once again.
"Let's do it again!"
En?
Everyone present could not help but be stunned as they looked at Lia Jun, who was standing in the middle of the arena.
The Ardent Sun Clan warriors who were surrounding the ring were even more surprised. Immediately, someone mustered up the courage to stand out, and bowed to persuade ___.
"Chief Commander, this match in Challenge Competition has ended. According to the rules..."
But before he could finish, Lia Jun suddenly waved his hand. Violent combat intent swept across like a tempestuous storm. He pulled out his huge sword and said in a domineering manner.
"Do you think I don't know the rules?"
"I'm standing upright and upright. How can I break the rules set by the Son? I lost this battle. I'll give whatever I have to give! "
"But..."
Lia Jun said and waved the huge sword in front of his chest. A pair of fierce tiger eyes stared at Ye Xiao in front of him, full of fighting spirit.
"Again!"
"It's just for sparring. There's no need to win!"
This was...
Lia Jun was worthy of being the chief commander of Ardent Sun Clan. His honest words immediately made everyone understand his intentions, including Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao's eyes lit up.
He still wanted to fight, but he didn't want to lose?
Interesting!
Under the arena, the crowd was in an uproar since a long time ago, and everyone's gazes burned as they looked at the scene before their eyes, and they were extremely excited.
They similarly understood the desire in Lia Jun's heart.
Not winning or losing?
No!
This was clearly a performance of Lia Jun's extreme desire for victory and defeat, but just like what he had said, no matter what the outcome of the battle was, he wouldn't do anything to Ye Xiao!
"An extreme battle?"
"Hahaha, there's going to be a good show to watch!"
For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar. Even the battles that were going on in the remaining three arenas had stopped. All of them looked over to this side, afraid that they would miss any second of the exciting battle. Divine light flickered in their eyes, and they were filled with anticipation.
Because they faintly sensed that everything that was going to happen on the arenas next would surely be even more interesting than before!
"Lia Jun obviously went easy on us just now. He wasn't vigilant enough, but it's different now. He has learned from his mistakes. He definitely won't be deceived so easily!"
"Mm, that makes sense! Lia Jun's Mountain Shaking Sword had extraordinary strength. Most people thought that his strength was the most powerful part. However, they didn't know that what he was best at was defense. So what if his speed was fast? Under the absolute strength and defense... There's no way for him to struggle at all! "
The crowd discussed animatedly. Even though Ye Xiao's performance just now was outstanding, at this moment, not many people thought highly of him.
Qu Tenghai was also awakened by the noisy discussions around him. He subconsciously looked at the gambling table. He was surprised to find that his fifty spirit crystal were gone. A piece of paper with a strange pattern was placed in front of him. There was also a Spiritual Ring. Qu Tenghai subconsciously raised his head and saw a young man wearing a fiery red armor facing him.
"Congratulations, Brother Qu."
"There are 450,000 spirit crystals on this piece of paper. After Brother Qu left... Alright. Yes. Of course, if Brother Qu has any concerns, he can temporarily put it here. We'll watch over it for you, and you can keep it when you get out."
"As for this Spiritual Ring, it contains fifty thousand spirit crystal, which you can use as you wish, Brother Qu."
Five hundred thousand spirit crystals? That's it?
Looking at the Spiritual Ring and paper that the young man handed over, Qu Tenghai was completely stunned. After waiting for a while, he could feel the scorching gazes coming from the surroundings. His spirit shook. He suddenly woke up and pushed the piece of paper back. He firmly grabbed the Spiritual Ring in his palm.
"I'll let you keep it for now!"
"I'll exchange it when we get out of here. I'll definitely believe the credibility of the Ardent Sun Clan!"
This time, it was the young soldier's turn to be surprised. When he saw the trace of fear in Qu Tenghai's eyes, he immediately understood what was going on. He smiled and took back the piece of paper and said:
"Brother Qu is indeed a smart man. No wonder your luck is so good. Alright, since that's the case, I'll keep the four hundred and fifty thousand crystals for Brother Qu. Once we get out of here, I'll definitely return them to you. "
"I wish Brother Qu a good time. I'll take my leave now."
After the young man's soldier left, Qu Tenghai immediately felt that the scorching eyes around him had dimmed a little. The pressure on him had disappeared, and he couldn't help but wipe away the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead.
A precious jade is not guilty, but a treasure is guilty!
Just a moment ago, he really had the impulse to take all five hundred thousand spirit crystals, but at that moment, he suddenly realized his current situation.
This was the Divine Garden!
Even if the Ardent Sun Clan was guarding the Tiger Slope, no one would dare to kill someone here. But once he left the Tiger Slope or the Ardent Sun Clan, who could protect him?
As a branch of the Yan Family, he didn't have the backing of the Ardent Sun Clan. Once he showed himself with the five hundred thousand spirit crystals, Qu Tenghai believed it. Although these people had been enjoying themselves these days, they were all betting on victory and defeat together. They would tease each other, but once he was alone outside, one of them would be counted as one. They would never let him go!
But now he was safe.
Because even if he killed him, he wouldn't be able to get the most out of it. Fifty thousand spirit crystal wasn't enough for a single person to take such a huge risk.
But this also gave Qu Tenghai a good memory.
Strength!
"I still need sufficient strength!"
"Otherwise, I can just find an expert to follow me."
Qu Tenghai thought in his heart as his eyes rolled around. Suddenly, when he saw Ye Xiao and Lia Jun once again opposing each other on the arena, his eyes suddenly trembled as if he had found his target.
"But, is 50,000 spirit crystal really enough?"
Qu Tenghai's heart sank into a dilemma as he furrowed his brows and thought bitterly. Right at this moment, he was jolted awake by the clamorous noise around him.
"Hey, I say, Brother Qu, your luck is really amazing. You were able to encounter this as well. However, since you've earned money, can you give some space for your brothers? If you don't place your bets, our brothers are still waiting for you!"
Bet?
When Qu Tenghai heard this, his gambling spirit was immediately stimulated. He subconsciously looked down at the gambling table in front of him and saw that the wooden board on it had already been replaced, turning into victory and defeat.
"Lia Jun wins, the odds are 1: 1."
"Young man wins. The odds are 10."
If Ye Xiao won, the odds would only be 10 times?
This odds were indeed very shocking, but it was obviously unable to compare to the 10,000 times odds from before. But when Qu Tenghai saw it, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he gritted his teeth while a wisp of ruthlessness arose in the depths of his heart.
"If fifty thousand isn't enough... Five hundred thousand should be enough!"
Qu Tenghai thought in his heart, and suddenly raised his hand under the shocked gazes of everyone around him. He slammed hard on the gambling table in front of him, and when his arm moved away, there was a Spiritual Ring in front of the wooden board that said "young man wins." It was the Spiritual Ring that the young man from the Ardent Sun Clan had just placed in his hand!
Qu Tenghai had actually bet on Ye Xiao once again, and this time, the amount had shockingly reached fifty thousand!2
For a moment, those people who were mocking Qu Tenghai with a strange tone were stunned. They were extremely shocked, as if they were in a dream.
He...
Where did he get such confidence from?
