Although that was what Yue Yang said, the fat toad Jia De had another thought in his heart.
In this world, it was impossible for the weak to be friends with the strong!
Just like how he wouldn't be friends with his guards or servants, the relationship between the weak and the strong would always be that of a master and a servant. The reason why this young human said all these to him was probably not because he wanted to be friends with him, but because he wanted to be his business agent. Of course, the fat toad Jia De didn't dislike this difference in status, he even agreed with it.
If Tai Tan was really strong enough, then it wouldn't be a bad idea for him to change to a new backer.
It didn't matter who he worked for, as long as the backer was strong enough!
Although the Golden Toad Merchant Guild was one of the top ninety-five large merchant guilds, Jia De was only a small branch in the Golden Toad Clan, his position wasn't high.
If he could really work under the powerful Tai Tan, it would definitely not be a bad thing … The only problem was, would Tai Tan be able to return unscathed from the encirclement of the three Chief Guards?
This young human Ranker, was his strength really as strong as he was confident in?
"If he could return with a great victory …" The fat toad Jia De made a decision in his heart. He was a daring merchant, and was an expert in opportunism.
"Let's go!" Yue Yang didn't care about what the fat toad Jia De was thinking about.
In the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower, everything was a hundred times simpler than in the Soaring Dragon Continent or the Hua Xia Empire. There weren't any seniors here, and there weren't any complicated relationships to speak of. As long as one had strength, he could do whatever he wanted.
In other words, strength decides everything. Without strength, one would be nothing.
To Yue Yang, the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower allowed him to be like a fish in water.
In the Soaring Dragon Continent, above Yue Yang, there were still Elder Yue Hai, Jun Wu You and the others. Even if they didn't restrict Yue Yang's life, the relationship between a senior, a junior, and a subject would still exist. In the same situation, when Yue Yang came to the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower, no matter how many Soaring Dragon Continent rankers there were, as long as they were not as strong as Yue Yang, they would take the initiative to show respect to Yue Yang. They would not show their seniority in front of Yue Yang. Everything in human society would not work here.
Yue Yang was very confident because he was strong.
Qi Lan Continent's An Dong, Yue Yang did not even put him in his eyes … In this Thunder Fortress, there was only one person worthy of Yue Yang's caution, and that was the Innate Level 8 Chong Ni.
Not only did Chong Ni possess the power of a Level Eight Innate, he was also extremely cunning.
A Ranker who killed people like flies and was accepted by the Innate Alliance, his intelligence was definitely not something Huang Sha, who was at the same level as him, could compare to.
Because Huang Sha's characteristics were countered by water, Yue Yang, Little Wen Li, Xue Wuxia and the other girls worked together to kill him in the Prison Emperor's Second Hall. That failure was not a demonstration of his true strength. It could be said that Huang Sha, who possessed the power of an Innate Level 8, died in Yue Yang's hands unjustly. If Yue Yang were to fight Huang Sha head on with his sword and spear, he might not be able to defeat Huang Sha.
Even if Chong Ni and Huang Sha had the same level of strength, if Yue Yang wanted to fight him, Huang Sha's encirclement method would definitely not be replicated.
Huang Sha, Ming Ri Hao and An Ge had already informed Yue Yang of their weaknesses.
No one knew what Chong Ni's weaknesses were.
The only information that Yue Yang knew was that this fellow had unintentionally offended Night Empress and was chased by her. However, he managed to escape very cunningly and only suffered light injuries.
Once he escaped, he immediately begged Elder Nan Gong to help him.
He used nine Meteorite Crystals to apologize to Night Empress and eliminate this grudge …
Based on Chong Ni's humble attitude, Yue Yang could imagine how smart and patient this fellow was.
Night Empress' ranking in the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower wasn't high. Many people even thought that she was a member of the Innate Alliance. Only those who reached the Ninth Floor of Tong Tian Tower knew that her strength was just below Zhi Zun. Among the countless Rankers from different clans, she would definitely fight her way into the top ten, or even the top five. Although Sky Law's Impatiens was arrogant, she would never look down on Yue Yang when she talked about Night Empress.
Of course, Night Empress wasn't the only one who hid her strength.
For example, Falling Cangue Mountain's Demonic Palace's' Sky Execution '. The Impatiens who had levelled up to Innate Level 10 once told Yue Yang that even if she levelled up to Innate Level 10, she wouldn't be able to compare to Sky Execution.
Sky Execution was a Ranker who was close to Zhi Zun. His strength had even surpassed the three Demonic Palace Leaders who founded the Demonic Palace in the Falling Cangue Mountain.
Shun Tian and Thousand Goblins Sect Leader's strength was clear.
Even if they were hiding their strength, it wouldn't be too much.
Night Empress and Sky Execution were different. These two people's strength was completely hidden in the dark. No one knew what realm these two people's true strength had reached.
It was still too early to catch up to Zhi Zun, Night Empress and challenge Sky Execution. That was Yue Yang's long term goal. It was still too early to challenge Shun Tian, Thousand Goblins Sect Leader, Baruth and Ha Xin. However, this Innate Level 8 Chong Ni was Yue Yang's chosen touchstone.
If he couldn't beat those who were too strong, he would first find someone above average to practice on.
This, was Yue Yang's current plan to level up.
Fight monsters. No one would challenge the final boss right from the start. That wasn't fighting monsters, it was seeking death!
Just like in Diablo, no one would challenge the big boss right from the start. A newbie would definitely run to the underground cave to find a corpse to vent his anger on! For someone like Yue Yang who had a certain level of strength, he wouldn't be interested in a small boss that could vent his anger on a corpse. At the very least, he would fight Ms. An … As the Slave Arena appeared in front of him, Yue Yang withdrew from his thoughts.
Countless people were pointing fingers at Yue Yang, the newbie. They felt that Yue Yang was seeking death by challenging three Lesser Innates.
Some gamblers rushed over and shouted loudly, cursing Yue Yang to die early so that they could win their money.
There were also quite a number of men and women who saw Yue Yang killing Gu Nai Te in an instant. They hurriedly pulled their companions away to prevent Yue Yang from going crazy. It was never a good thing to provoke a Ranker!
"Brat, go back to your mother's arms and drink milk!"
"Such a skinny bag of bones, Li Er and the rest will beat the sh * t out of you!"
"Start crying now. You won't be able to cry later … Did you see his eyes? I can see that he is trembling, this coward! "
"Does anyone want to buy his flesh? I have already told Mr. An Dong that his corpse belongs to me. Those who want to eat human flesh, please sign up. I will give you a cup of Frozen Ale for free for three portions of meat! Organs? What did you say? Do you think that after being beaten by Li Er and the rest, this brat will still have his organs left? I dare say that his intestines will be pulled out by Li Er and the rest and fly around his neck like a kite! "
Countless shouts could be heard from the crowd. There were even people who wanted to squeeze over and beat up Yue Yang.
These were the crazy gamblers who had bet on Yue Yang to lose.
Yue Yang held the Crescent Moon Blade in his hand and all the gamblers who tried to sneak attack him along the way, as well as those who wanted to spit on him, were all chopped off … The ground was littered with broken hands and countless lips, tongues and ears were cut off.
Following the continuous screams, the scolding crowd was thrown into chaos.
Countless people ran away in fear. Those who were slow were already stepped on by others.
For the first time, in front of the Slave Gladiator Arena, a large number of spectators were injured by the gladiators. No one dared to do so. No one dared to offend all the spectators. Only Yue Yang, the newcomer who had just arrived for less than an hour, dared to use the sharp blade in his hand to tell them what the new rules were! There was a type of person who was born to change the rules. For example, Yue Yang.
No one dared to scold Yue Yang to his face anymore. Of course, behind his back, where Yue Yang could not see or hear them, they were still scolding him.
Almost everyone bet on Yue Yang to lose.
The fat toad Jia De struggled with his thoughts for a while. In the end, he gritted his teeth and bet ten thousand gold on Yue Yang.
This was not the money of the Merchant Guild, but a tenth of his life savings.
Jia De was not a crazy gambler, but he was a smart merchant. If Yue Yang lost, he would definitely suffer a great loss, but it would not affect his vitality. He still had the capital to start afresh. If Yue Yang won, then he would earn a fortune … Opportunities would not always appear in front of him. Jia De felt that he had to grab hold of some opportunities. If not, he would forever be a small merchant in a district of the Golden Toad Merchant Guild.
"How much did you bet?" Before Yue Yang entered the arena, he suddenly turned his head and asked Jia De.
"Not much. Cough cough, I did not bring much money." Jia De was shocked and hurriedly explained: "Mr Tai Tan, I definitely believe in you. I bet on you to win!"
"Do you have to pay for whatever you bet on?" Yue Yang asked again.
"You want to bet too?" Jia De was surprised. Under normal circumstances, gladiators were not allowed to participate in gambling, because they were afraid of fraud. Of course, no one would really follow this kind of written rule. As long as one did not bet on himself to lose, even if the gladiator placed a full bet, they would still be welcomed in the Slave Arena. The full bet in the Slave Arena was a hundred thousand gold. Other than the real rich, no one would bet that much. There were even some poor people who wanted to gamble but did not have the money to bet on goods. It was just that the money they bet on would be half of the market price.
"Help me bet this." Yue Yang took out a huge bag from his Lich Ring.
"Ah … Okay." The fat toad Jia De thought that it was a gold nugget or some kind of special ore. After he won, he would ask the fat An Dong for the Thunder Ore.
Unexpectedly, when he opened the betting area, he was completely stunned.
The betting officer who was about to shout out 'Five items to bet, half price for the old ones' was so shocked that his jaw was dislocated. He could not say a single word.
This was because the items that Yue Yang had bet were five Platinum Grimoires with different patterns … If he won, what would he use as compensation? Compensation? God knows how much the Platinum Grimoire would be valued. These were all priceless treasures!
The recording officer's actions were very fast. He first wrapped up the five Platinum Grimoires and threw them into the pile of items at the back as if he was throwing cabbages. He then wrote down a wager: Here are five old and broken Platinum Grimoires as collateral. Everything will be decided by fate. If you lose, there will be no refund. If you win, there will be a refund. The payout is only half of the market price … While the fat toad Jia De and the betting officer were still in a state of shock, he had completed all the procedures. He then stuffed the wager into Jia De's hands and shouted towards the window, "Quick, next!"
This shout woke the registrar up with a start.
He first wanted to snatch back the wager from Jia De's hands. However, Jia De immediately ran away, not giving him a chance to regret.
The betting officer grabbed the collar of the wooden looking recording officer and shouted angrily, "Damn it, are you blind? Didn't you see what it was just now? You actually dared to accept the wager! What if that fatty Jia De won? What will we use to compensate him? The payout is 1 to 10. Damn it, if that damned Titan wins, we will have to compensate him with 50 Platinum Grimoires. Even if it's half price, we will still have to compensate him with 25 Platinum Grimoires. Where are you going to find 25 Platinum Grimoires to compensate him? "
The recording officer was stunned, "What Platinum Grimoire?"
The betting officer's brain almost bled. He screamed in despair, "Don't tell me you didn't see what it was just now?"
"Wasn't it five books?" Only then did the recording officer realise that something was wrong. He looked at the record book in his hands, "Here are five old and broken Platinum Grimoires as collateral … Platinum Grimoire? My god, which idiot would do such a thing? This fellow is crazy, he actually used a Platinum Grimoire as a bet! "
"That's not important. What's important is that he won. How are we going to compensate him?" The betting officer felt that the sky was collapsing.
"Listen to me, buddy. I didn't react at all just now. I thought it was five books. Dammit, those poor bastards always use those rotten books as collateral. I'm already used to receiving books. I didn't even know that it was five Platinum Grimoires! If I knew that it was five Platinum Grimoires, I wouldn't have accepted it even if my head was crushed by a door … "The recording officer realised that his numb and habitual movements had caused a huge problem.
"Dammit, that's not important. What's important is that you have accepted the collateral now. If that brat called Titan wins, Jia De will ask us for 25 Platinum Grimoires! Lord An Dong will slaughter us alive and make our meat into sausages. I dare say that you will definitely receive the same treatment as me. "The betting officer's forehead was full of sweat and his whole body was trembling.
"I say buddy, maybe it's not that hopeless … Look at Jia De's wager. What's that? He bet on that brat Titan. That brat is going against three Lesser Innates. Lille and the others will definitely not lose. We will definitely win this bet. There's nothing to be afraid of, we will definitely win. The unlucky Jia De will cry, the one who should cry is him! "The recording officer was also sweating profusely.
"You're saying that we can win these five Platinum Grimoires? Lord An Dong won't be angry, and they will even reward us heavily? "The betting officer also felt that there was a ray of light in the sky.
"Maybe … No, that's for sure!" The recording officer comforted his partner and himself at the same time.
The two of them didn't care about the gamblers outside the window who wanted to place their bets.
They all listened attentively, hoping to hear the good news that the three Lesser Innates had defeated the newbie called Titan.
Following an earth-shattering commotion, everything suddenly fell silent … This silence caused the two of them to feel a chill down their spines. Not good, if the three guard leaders had won, then everyone should be cheering. Could it be that the newcomer Titan had won? But that's not right either. How could the newbie Titan defeat three Lesser Innates?
The two of them rushed out without a care and squeezed to a corner of the Wrestling Arena while panting. They stuck their heads out from the crowd and looked down.
Looking down, the two of them were immediately scared out of their wits.
In the Wrestling Arena, two of the three Guard Leaders were lying on the ground. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive, while the last one was trembling in fear.
More than ten beasts' corpses had been decapitated. A Platinum-ranked Reaper Mantis was holding two beasts in its scythe. A Thunder Lizard was already dead, while the Poison Spot Flying Dragon King was still alive. However, its head was being devoured by the Reaper Mantis. Even a blind person could tell who won this battle …
The recording officer and the betting officer's vision darkened as they fainted.
The fat An Dong who was sitting on the embroidered couch had a very bad expression on his face. He looked like a widow whose only son had died.
Jia De looked at him and sneered in his heart. This guy still didn't know what was going to happen next. If he knew that he would have to pay Titan 25 Platinum Grimoires, his expression would definitely be even more interesting …
