"What's going on? I don't understand."
"I don't understand either. How did he turn defeat into victory?"
Just now, Du Feng was forced to retreat step by step. How did he suddenly turn defeat into victory? The audience couldn't get used to it for a while.
"Didn't they say that he's invincible and doesn't kill people? Why did he kill people?"
"Who said that one can't kill people in the arena? Does he want to send himself to death?"
Very quickly, everyone noticed a problem. In the last round, Du Feng didn't kill Butcher. He only injured his leg. In this round, he retreated step by step, but in the end, he killed Stormman. Other than surprising the audience, it also reflected another problem. Stormman was too strong, forcing him to use his ultimate move to win.
If he had a huge advantage, he could totally control his opponent like he did in the last round and earn himself a good reputation as an invincible and unkillable person. Since he couldn't control his opponent, it could only mean that the gap between the two of them wasn't that big. It could even be said that this time, he barely won because he used a trick.
The audience analyzed it carefully. Previously, Du Feng used his movement skills to continuously dodge and was forced to retreat step by step. Stormman spread his arms and dragged his long claws forward. Although he sealed off the path on both sides, he also opened the middle door wide. He was sure that Du Feng didn't have any weapons in his hands, but he didn't expect Du Feng's fingernails to be so long. He was caught off guard and fell for it.
It was said that Du Feng wasn't much stronger than Stormman. It was just that he was smarter. Then, if he met a stronger opponent next time, would he still be able to win by playing tricks? Everyone was getting more and more curious.
Very good. This was the effect that Du Feng wanted, to keep the audience curious about him and look forward to his next round. The organizers were also very satisfied with Du Feng's performance. He had achieved the desired level of anticipation. They only needed to arrange an opponent slightly stronger than Stormman for the next round, and everyone would come to watch this life and death battle.
The audience had a very strange mentality. They wanted to see Du Feng win and Du Feng lose. If Du Feng won, they would witness another miracle. However, if Du Feng were to lose, it would mean that his logical reasoning was correct. He would not be able to go far just by playing tricks.
Du Feng maintained his previous style. He took his God's Stone, put on his hood, and immediately left the backstage. Without hesitation, he made a trip to a famous smithy nearby. This time, they weren't going to look at weapons. Instead, they were going to look at forging materials. They were mainly looking at ores, followed by molds.
After visiting the blacksmith shop, he went to the pharmacy. The Star God Pills sold in the apothecary were much cheaper than those sold in the stalls outside. The old man sold him a bottle of Star God Pills for forty-two divine stones, and there were ten pills inside. In fact, the medicine store sold it for twenty god stones per bottle, and there were still ten pills inside. If you bought each pill individually, it would cost three god stones per pill.
Du Feng spent 20 God Stones to buy a bottle of Star God Pills, then hurried home. The spy sent by the organizer immediately reported the news to the boss.
He had earned a total of 20 God Stones last time, so he was reluctant to buy a bottle of elixirs that cost 20 God Stones a bottle. This time, he earned a hundred God Stones as an appearance fee, so he bought a bottle of pills to bring back. It seemed like he was in a hurry to improve his Cultivation. The organizers analyzed and felt that this behavior was very reasonable.
A battle to the death in the arena was a very dangerous thing to begin with. If the early stage of the sixth level of the Divine Weapon Realm were to compete with the middle stage and late stage cultivators, the early stage cultivators would definitely be at a disadvantage. Du Feng was currently in the middle stage of the sixth level of the Divine Weapon Realm. Today, he was at a slight disadvantage when fighting against the late-stage sixth level of the Divine Weapon Realm. Therefore, he was in a hurry to buy medicinal pills and raise his Cultivation to the late-stage of the sixth level of the Divine Weapon Realm.
"Tell him to fight the birdman in ten days. Raise his appearance fee to two hundred parangons."
The Battle God Stage organizers were not afraid of spending money, but they were afraid that Du Feng did not lack money. As long as he was short of money, he could continue to be used. This so-called birdman was not an ordinary Lesser God, but a Demon God. To put it bluntly, he was a demon cultivator who had ascended to the God Realm. His true form was that of a bird. Moreover, it was not an ordinary bird. It was a Fire Crow.
The greatest characteristic of Fire Crows was that they were born with the ability to control flames. Even though their abilities were suppressed in the God Realm, they were still much stronger than ordinary people. Ordinary spells of the five elements couldn't be used here, but his flames could be used.
In the arena where everyone was fighting hand-to-hand, if someone suddenly threw out a pile of flames, it could be said to be quite lethal.
"Boss, isn't this a little too hasty? Invincible contestants still have value."
The staff member's question was very normal. This was because Du Feng was currently very popular, and the audience liked to watch his matches. They could arrange for an opponent who was slightly stronger than the Stormman, but not too much stronger, to be assigned to him. If they directly arranged for the birdman to fight him, wouldn't he be burned to death in an instant?
"You don't understand. This way, there will be suspense, hahaha …"
Although the staff's opinion was very pertinent, the boss would never take back what he said. He arranged for the birdman to fight Du Feng, and the time was ten days later. Why was it arranged for ten days later? It was because Du Feng had just bought a pill, so he definitely needed time to digest it.
The boss of the Battle God Arena wanted to see how Du Feng's Cultivation would be raised to the late-stage of the sixth level of the Divine Soldier Realm, and then what would happen when he fought against the birdman. If he could still turn the tables, then this kid would be too amazing.
"F * ck, these guys are really mean. They want to squeeze you dry, Brother Du."
At this time, Du Feng and Xiao Hei had already returned to their residence and were discussing how to proceed. In the end, Du Feng received a notice to fight against the birdman contestant. This birdman was quite famous, and Xiao Hei knew him. He was good at using fire, and he was quite strong.
"It's fine, I'll give them a surprise when the time comes. This time, I'll give you all the money. Remember to put it all on the line."
Du Feng received a hundred divine stones as an appearance fee, and then spent twenty, leaving him with eighty divine stones. On Xiao Hei's side, he had bet a hundred and forty divine stones on the previous match. If he won at 2.5 times the odds, he would bring back 350 divine stones. Therefore, he could bet 430 divine stones on the next match. If he won again, the two of them wouldn't have to worry about not having enough money to spend for a period of time.
No, that wasn't what Du Feng was thinking. What he was thinking was that the two hundred divine stones in advance for the next match would all be given to Xiao Hei. Six hundred and thirty divine stones, all on the line. Because the organizers didn't expect him to win the next match at all, he didn't care about exposing his identity. When the time came, as long as he received the money, he would first think of a way to give the money to Xiao Hei and bet it all on him winning.
