"Thank you, Vice Sect Leader Zhou."
After receiving the two Spatial Rings from the Third Prince of King Qin's Mansion, Duan Lingtian looked at Zhou An, the Vice Sect Leader of the Poison King Sect, and said in a hoarse voice with a smile on his face.
Zhou An's expression turned unsightly as though he had just swallowed a fly.
"Do you dare to make another bet with me?"
Zhou An suddenly rose to his feet as though he had recalled something. He looked at Duan Lingtian and asked in a deep voice.
"Another bet?"
Duan Lingtian was taken aback. Then, he asked, "What do you want to bet?"
At the same time, the people in the VIP seats turned to look at Zhou An in unison. They were curious about what Zhou An wanted to bet with the Celestial Alchemist of the Flying Dragon Sect.
"It seems like the Vice Sect Leader of the Poison King Sect is unwilling to admit defeat."
The Third Prince of King Qin's Mansion laughed.
The sounds in the area behind the curtain couldn't be heard from the outside, but the people in the area behind the curtain could clearly hear the sounds outside the curtain.
The curtains were only soundproof to the outside world.
"I'm curious … What else can he bet at a time like this?"
Qin Yu asked.
"At a time like this, other than betting on whether Duan Lingtian, the trump card of the Nine Specters County, will show up or not, what else can he bet on?"
A hint of wisdom flashed in King Qin's eyes. Based on his words, it was as though he had guessed the thoughts of the Poison King Sect's Vice Sect Leader, Zhou An.
"Betting on whether Duan Lingtian will show up or not?"
Qin Yu was stunned.
"If I'm not mistaken …" The Third Prince of King Qin's Mansion narrowed his eyes.
The Third Prince narrowed his eyes when he heard King Qin's words. He smiled faintly as he said, "He'll definitely bet that Duan Ling Tian, the trump card of the Nine Specters County, won't show up. It's very likely that Duan Ling Tian won't show up."
"Isn't he a little too shameless?"
Although Qin Yu also hoped that Duan Lingtian would not show up, he could not help but feel that the Third Prince of King Qin's Mansion was too shameless.
If the Poison King Sect's Vice Sect Leader Zhou An did that, he would be extremely shameless!
Moreover, will the primitive Celestial Alchemist in the Flying Dragon Sect agree to such a bet? In my opinion, unless the Flying Dragon Sect's primitive Celestial Alchemist was kicked in the head by a donkey, it's impossible for him to agree to such a bet. "
Qin Yu said.
Fortunately, Duan Lingtian did not hear what Qin Yu said. Otherwise, he would definitely be speechless.
What did he mean by saying that if he agreed, his head would be kicked by a donkey?
Wasn't he intentionally scolding him?
"Yu 'er, it's just as you said … Unless the Flying Dragon Sect's primitive Celestial Alchemist has lost his mind, he won't agree to such a bet."
The Third Prince said with a smile.
At the same time, the Poison King Sect's Vice Sect Leader, Zhou An, opened his mouth and said under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
"Let's see if Duan Lingtian, the trump card of Nine Specters County, will participate in the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties!"
As soon as Zhou An finished speaking, the entire place fell silent.
After a while, many people in the VIP seats shook their heads and said, "There's no point in betting with this bet!"
"Indeed … this bet is completely meaningless! Duan Lingtian, the trump card of Nine Specters County, hasn't shown up yet. This means he won't show up. "
"Unless Zhou An, the Vice Sect Leader of the Poison King Sect, is betting that Duan Lingtian will show up … Otherwise, who would be willing to bet with him?"
"Will he bet that Duan Lingtian will show up?"
…
The people in the VIP seats discussed among themselves as they looked at Zhou An. They were curious if Zhou An would bet that Duan Lingtian would show up and participate in the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties.
Even the people from the Flying Dragon Sect were looking at Zhou An.
Zhou An looked at Duan Lingtian and said calmly, "I'll bet 100,000 prominent Celestial Stones that Duan Lingtian, the trump card of Nine Specters County, won't show up …"
The people in the VIP seats thought Zhou An was shameless when they heard his words. However, Zhou An continued to say, "Since I have a higher chance of winning, you can bet 50,000 prominent Celestial Stones that Duan Lingtian will show up."
As soon as Zhou An finished speaking, Huang Guang Ji, the Vice Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect, could not help but spit on the ground. "Shameless! Zhou An, you're too shameless! "
"Shameless! How shameless! "
"I'm afraid only a shameless person from the Poison King Sect would come up with such a bet!"
"Since Duan Ling Tian, the trump card of Nine Specters County, hasn't shown up yet, it's highly likely that he won't show up. Even if Zhou An used 200,000 prominent Celestial Stones to bet on Revered Elder Tian Ling's 50,000 prominent Celestial Stones, Revered Elder Tian Ling would still be at a disadvantage.
"Only a fool would agree to such a bet!"
…
The group of people from the Flying Dragon Sect looked at Zhou An and discussed among themselves. They all felt that Zhou An was shameless.
Even the people from the Poison King Sect felt that their Vice Sect Leader was shameless. However, they could not help an outsider to scold their Vice Sect Leader, right?
Therefore, they looked at the people from the Flying Dragon Sect and retorted, "What do you mean by shameless? If the people from the Flying Dragon Sect don't dare to accept the bet, just say so. Do you think we're going to hold a knife to your neck and force you to accept the bet? "
"That's right! Just say so if you don't dare to accept the bet! "
"In my opinion, the people from the Flying Dragon Sect are terrified!"
…
The people from the Poison King Sect argued as they looked at the people from the Flying Dragon Sect.
"Shameless!"
"How shameless!"
…
Now, the group of people in the VIP seats who were not from the Flying Dragon Sect and the Poison King Sect, after hearing the unreasonable words of the Poison King Sect's people, not only did they feel that the Poison King Sect's Vice Sect Leader Zhou An was shameless, they even felt that the Poison King Sect's people were shameless.
"The people from the Poison King Sect are too shameless!"
Behind the curtain, Qin Yu felt indignant and indignant on behalf of the Flying Dragon Sect.
"In this world, there are many shameless people … This is nothing."
The Third Prince shook his head and said, "In fact, we all know who's the shameless one here … No one will accept the bet anyway."
Meanwhile.
"County Governor Tian!"
The host of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties looked at the people from the Nine Specters County and locked his gaze on Tian Ji Yu, the County Governor of the Nine Specters County.
"Will the trump card of Nine Specters County forfeit?"
The host asked bluntly.
"My lord, I hope you can wait a little longer …"
Tian Ji Yu said reluctantly.
Until now, he still had not seen Duan Lingtian. Although he did not think it was likely that Duan Lingtian would show up, he was still unwilling to give up. Subconsciously, he hoped that Duan Lingtian would show up and bring hope to Nine Specters County.
For this reason, he wanted to buy some time.
What if Duan Lingtian showed up in the next moment?
"Wait? What are you still waiting for?! "
"Hmph! The trump card of Nine Specters County must be that Duan Lingtian. If that Duan Lingtian wanted to show up, he would've been here a long time ago. Why hasn't he shown up yet? "
"In my opinion, it's a waste of time to wait! Duan Lingtian won't show up! "
…
At practically the instant Tian Ji Yu's voice sounded out, similar voices rose and fell from the spectator stands around the combat arena.
More than 99% of the people thought Duan Lingtian would not show up.
The host of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties frowned slightly when he heard Tian Ji Yu's words. In the end, he took out a Communication Celestial Talisman and infused it with his Celestial Origin Energy before he sent it to the area behind the VIP seats.
He was seeking the opinion of the Third Prince who was in charge of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties.
"Big brother, do you think it's necessary to wait?"
The Third Prince asked King Qin when he received the Communication Celestial Talisman.
"Let's wait for an hour."
King Qin's eyes flashed as he said, "This is my way of expressing my admiration for Duan Lingtian. After all, it's not easy for such a monstrous genius to appear in King Qin's Mansion's territory."
"Alright."
The Third Prince nodded and replied to the host of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties with a Communication Celestial Talisman.
After the host of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties received the Communication Celestial Talisman, he immediately announced under everyone's watchful eyes.
"Lord King Qin has ordered that Nine Specters County be given another hour due to his admiration for Duan Ling Tian, the monstrous genius from Nine Specters County. If Nine Specters County's trump card does not show up after an hour, the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties will end.
At that time, Chu Yan from the Soaring Wind County will be ranked first in the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties! "
The host finished his sentence in one breath.
Everyone present thought it was a waste of time to wait for an hour.
However, since it was their King Qin's Mansion who had spoken, they did not dare to complain even if they were dissatisfied.
To them, King Qin's Mansion's territory, King Qin was a lofty and inviolable existence.
"Thank you, Lord King Qin."
Upon hearing the host's words, Tian Ji Yu, the County Governor of Nine Specters County, hurriedly bowed to the VIP seats to express his gratitude. However, his heart was heavy, and the pressure he felt increased.
At this moment, he even felt a little regretful.
He regretted not buying time for Duan Lingtian.
It was as the majority of the people had said.
If Duan Lingtian wanted to show up, he would have done so long ago. It was impossible that he had not shown up yet.
"Lord County Governor, is there a need to wait? I'm sure Duan Lingtian won't be coming back … "
Pang Bing, the inner court elder of the County Governor's Mansion in Nine Specters County, said.
At this moment, even the inner mansion's elder, Zheng Qiu, who had always supported Duan Ling Tian fell silent at this moment.
This was because he did not have the confidence to do so.
At this moment, he did not think Duan Lingtian would show up.
"However, since Duan Ling Tian didn't come, something must have happened to him. Otherwise, with his temper and character, it's impossible for him to not come!"
