When Chu Kuangren returned to the skybox, he saw Murong Xuan sitting on the ground with a pale face and beads of cold sweat on his forehead.
"What's wrong with him? Is his injury too severe?"
Without hesitation, Chu Kuangren cast the Spring Breeze Healing Technique on Murong Xuan, and the injuries on his body quickly healed.
However, he still sat on the ground weakly.
"Sect Leader, he's just scared out of his wits."
Jun Yi chuckled beside him.
"Scared out of his wits?"
"That's right."
After Murong Xuan defeated Li Yin, he heard about the bet between Chu Kuangren and the fifteen sage orthodoxies.
He was so scared that his soul almost left his body. He did not dare to imagine how much the Black Heaven Sect would have to pay if he lost.
Would that not make him the Black Heaven Sect's greatest sinner?!
He could not even stand properly at the thought of that.
"Sect Leader, you really dared to bet. What if I lost? My life isn't worth that many soulstones."
Murong Xuan said tearlessly.
"Did you lose then?"
"No."
"Isn't that good enough?" Chu Kuangren said calmly.
That trust made Murong Xuan's heart feel heavy. He was so close to tears that he wanted to rush up and give Chu Kuangren a hug.
Chu Kuangren kicked him away. "I've won quite a lot today. When we get back, you can eat and play whatever you want. I'll pay for it all."
"All hail the Sect Leader!"
The crowd was extremely excited.
"Sect Leader, look, this bet was made for me after all. I don't think I can take any of it," Murong Xuan said with a straight face.
"No way."
"Please don't, Sect Leader. Just a little."
The faces of the other orthodoxies twitched when they saw the Black Heaven Sect crowd fooling around. Yet, they could not do anything to them.
In the judge's booth, the Thirteenth Prefect was no longer in the mood to host the competition, so the Twelfth Prefect announced on his behalf, "Since only two participants from the Black Heaven Sect have advanced to the fourth round of the third segment, the Black Heaven Sect will automatically add another ten points!"
"The third segment of the competition has ended. Now, let me announce the points of each orthodoxy. Please take a look."
As soon as the Twelfth Prefect finished speaking, a light screen appeared in the air. On it was a list of the points obtained by each orthodoxy in each segment.
Among them, the Black Heaven Sect had an absolute advantage of two hundred and thirty-five points, while the Overlord Sage Tribe was in second place with one hundred and forty points. There was a gap of almost a hundred points between them and the Black Heaven Sect!
"Oh my god, the Black Heaven Sect is too amazing."
"That's right, no one can stop the Mysterious Sky Sect. The Mysterious Sky Sect will definitely be the champion of this Hegemony Tournament."
"I think so too."
"Too strong."
"The Black Heaven Sect is invincible!"
The other orthodoxies frowned when they saw the difference in points. Since the beginning of the competition, the Black Heaven Sect had maintained a dominant lead in every segment. This was especially true in the second segment, where Lan Yu fought against a hundred opponents all by herself and obtained 156 points.
Currently, the Black Heaven Sect's points had far surpassed the other orthodoxies. If they allowed their opponents to continue winning like this, it was almost certain that the Black Heaven Sect would become the champion of this championship.
The Sky Emperor Palace, the Overlord Sage Tribe, and the Tempest Mountain Sect's Sect Leaders did not look too good.
Although they were also in first place in their respective groups, the Black Heaven Sect's performance was many times stronger than theirs. They were unstoppable throughout the competition.
The members of Group Delta, on the other hand, looked even gloomier. After all, the Black Heaven Sect had gained all these points by stepping on them.
"We can't beat the Black Heaven Sect anymore. Even if they lose in the next segment, their points will still be enough to crush us," the Linghu Clan Head said in a grim tone.
"Although we can't win, it would make us look useless if we were to leave the competition in such a pathetic manner. No matter what, we have to make the Black Heaven Sect look pathetic!" the Thunder Falcon Tribe Leader said as he stared in the direction of the Black Heaven Sect.
The other orthodoxies in Group Delta had the same thought as well.
The third segment had ended.
Chu Kuangren led the crowd and left.
That night, it was another round of revelry.
Chu Kuangren, who had won four and a half billion Top-tier soulstones, was not stingy at all as he went to the Four Seas Restaurant.
"Boss, I'll book this restaurant for you."
When Chu Kuangren arrived at the restaurant, he said generously to the owner of the restaurant.
The owner of the Four Seas Restaurant, the largest restaurant in First City, could not help but be stunned when he heard that.
Then, he smiled and said, "My friend, you must be joking. As the largest restaurant in First City, you'll need at least a million Top-tier soulstones to book this place for a night. Besides, we have many esteemed guests in our restaurant, so if you book the entire place, they might not be happy."
"Take it." Chu Kuangren immediately threw a Yin and Yang Ring at the owner and smiled. "There are five million Top-tier soulstones in here. If it's not enough, you can add more. As for the others, just tell them that I, Chu Kuangren, have booked the entire place."
The owner took the Yin and Yang Ring and gulped when he saw that it was filled to the brim with Top-tier soulstones. That many Top-tier soulstones were equivalent to two months of the Four Seas Restaurant's income.
When the owner heard Chu Kuangren's name, he was even more shocked. 'Oh my god, it's him!'
"Brother Chu, please come in. I'll ask the others to leave now. Tonight, the Four Seas Restaurant will be at your service." The owner smiled and bowed as he welcomed Chu Kuangren and the others into the restaurant.
Meanwhile, the waiters in the restaurant began to chase the guests away. The people who were enjoying their meal suddenly became displeased.
"Who's so arrogant to book the entire place?"
"The Four Seas Restaurant too. Last time, a sage orthodoxy's Sect Leader wanted to book the entire place, but they didn't even let them. How can they do it this time?"
"I haven't even finished my meal."
Faced with the crowd's dissatisfaction, a manager stepped forward and said, "Everyone, please calm down. As a token of our apology, everything is free this time. We welcome everyone to visit the Four Seas Restaurant again."
"Manager Wang, who's so arrogant to book the entire place?"
One of the First City's disciples asked in dissatisfaction.
He was considered a regular customer of the Four Seas Restaurant. Over the years, he had only seen a handful of people who could book the entire Four Seas Restaurant.
"It's Black Heaven Sect's Sect Leader Chu."
The deacon said with a faint smile.
A loud clang was heard.
The wine glass in that disciple's hand fell to the ground. "Black Heaven Sect's Sect Leader Chu is Chu Kuangren?!"
"Yes."
"Oh, so it's him. Forget I asked anything then. I'll take my leave first," the disciple said with an embarrassed smile.
When the others heard that it was Chu Kuangren who booked the entire place, they immediately calmed down.
"Oh, it's Sect Leader Chu. Sect Leader Chu is so generous!"
"That's right, he's indeed a Sect Leader. Since Sect Leader Chu has such an interest, we won't disturb him. We'll take our leave first."
No one dared to object to Chu Kuangren booking the entire place.
Even the top cultivator clans in the First City did not dare to act presumptuously upon hearing the name Chu Kuangren.
Time to go …
Manager Wang sent the crowd out.
Outside the restaurant, a few people walked towards them.
Manager Wang walked up to them and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry. Our restaurant has been booked by Sect Leader Chu today, so we're not receiving any guests."
"Which Sect Leader Chu is so arrogant?"
These people were the sky-prides from a few orthodoxies.
They had lost in the competition today and were planning to drink away their sorrows at the Four Seas Restaurant. They did not expect that someone would book the entire place.
Lei Mingtian could not help but frown in dissatisfaction.
Beside him, Lady Snowflake's heart skipped a beat. "Sect Leader Chu, the Black Heaven Sect's Sect Leader Chu."
"That's right."
The sky-prides felt even more aggrieved. Not only did they lose to Chu Kuangren, but they also wanted to drink away their sorrows when the entire restaurant was booked by Chu Kuangren.
How could they live like this?!
