Standing on the stage, Jiu She was looking at Dongbo Xue Ying and Drunk Guest. That faint smile on his face was enough to make anyone feel that he was provoking them.
"Brother Dongbo, Drunk Guest did not provoke him earlier, but this Jiu She took the initiative to do so," Seventh Mei Yu said from the side. "And from the looks of it, he's quite arrogant as well."
Dongbo Xue Ying nodded.
Arrogance and arrogance were nothing. Those who were truly talented and powerful were all prideful to the core. On the surface, Dongbo Xue Ying treated everyone with modesty, but deep down, he was just as prideful.
Dongbo Xue Ying did not care about his opponent's arrogance. What he cared about was his opponent's strength.
How powerful, Dongbo Xue Ying thought to himself. That move just now seemed to be everywhere. Furthermore, it was so powerful that it could destroy an entire region. That Deity ranked in the top thousand didn't even have the time to escape.
I wonder what will happen if I fight him. Dongbo Xue Ying was filled with anticipation. It's just that it's impossible for me to fight him in the arena battle.
In the prefectural selections, for example, the top ten, it was impossible for them to kill each other.
That was because the Calm Sea Prefecture wanted to select the strongest one hundred!
"He's provoking me, but it's a pity that I won't be able to fight him in the arena battle," Dongbo Xue Ying said.
"It's impossible for you to fight him in the arena battle, but the final survival battle will determine your ranking." Seventh Mei Yu laughed from the side. "You took first place in the ranking battle. Don't let them surpass you in the final survival battle."
Dongbo Xue Ying laughed.
It was no wonder that Jiu She was provoking him. It seemed like he was aiming for the survival battle.
...
Following that, the battles became more and more intense as the battle progressed, as the disparity in strength between the participants became smaller and smaller.
However, it was no longer as threatening as Jiu She and Drunk Guest had been to Dongbo Xue Ying.
Even if it was Seventh Mei Yu! Although Dongbo Xue Ying was shocked, he didn't feel too threatened. The main reason was that the fight had been too quick, and Seventh Mei Yu had only used two moves before her opponent had admitted defeat. Thus, Seventh Mei Yu's swordsmanship hadn't been fully displayed yet. After all, Seventh Mei Yu did not specialize in instantaneous bursts of powerful killing moves. She was more proficient in prolonged battles.
"The top 500 have been decided."
"The first match of the second batch of the arena battles: Dongbo versus Wu Yong."
The second batch began …
He had just entered the arena.
Wu Yong shouted, "I admit defeat."
Later on, when Drunk Guest stepped onto the stage, his opponent similarly shouted 'surrender'. When Jiu She stepped onto the stage, it was the same. He immediately surrendered even before the fight began!
In the first batch, the top few had shocked the others. They all understood that the gap was too big and there was no hope. It was better for them to admit defeat. He didn't want to lose his life before he could even admit defeat.
*****
On the high platform, the Calm Sea Prefecture Master, Monarch Mo Xue, and the others were all watching the matches.
Although there were more than ten powerful existences, protector disciples, and inner disciples participating, the most dazzling ones were the top three: Dongbo, Drunk Guest, and Jiu She! For instance, Zang Xiao was only ranked 27th in the ranking battles. Although his ranking wasn't bad, he couldn't compare to the top three.
"That Jiu She didn't reveal his full strength during the ranking battles?" The White Sand City Lord was slightly startled.
"He didn't use that secret skill during the ranking battles." King Rong Hai nodded.
"It's just the ranking battles. This Jiu She is too confident, so he didn't use any of his killing moves. Even so, he's still ranked third." The yellow-robed Venomous Ying World Deity chuckled. "Now that he's discovered that there are two people ranked higher than him, he naturally has to reveal some of his moves. In my opinion … this Jiu She is the strongest one. Drunk Guest is the personal disciple of a powerful existence, and his strength is similarly unfathomable. From the looks of it, he can grasp a grade one Deity Heart at any moment. On the contrary, this Dongbo is slightly weaker. "
Marshal Qin indifferently said, "You have some enmity with that Dongbo, so you're deliberately targeting him?"
"Targeting?" The Venomous Ying World Deity sneered. "Is he worthy?"
"Venomous Ying, if Dongbo is number one, then he is number one." The White Sand City Lord laughed. "No matter what you say, he'll still be number one in the ranking battles."
"Then do you dare to make a bet? I've already said that in the survival battles, this Dongbo definitely won't be number one. He might not even be number two! "The Venomous Ying World Deity sneered.
The White Sand City Lord shook his head. "Bet? Why would I bet? The rules of the ranking battles and the survival battles are different, and nobody can predict the final rankings. It's normal for Dongbo to not be number one. "
"You're not confident?" The Venomous Ying World Deity sneered.
"Are you confident? Do you dare say that Drunk Guest will definitely be number one? Or that Jiu She will definitely be number one? "The White Sand City Lord retorted.
The Venomous Ying World Deity was stunned.
According to historical experience, as long as the difference in power between the top three was not too obvious, they would definitely be number one in the survival battles. Even the fourth, fifth, and sixth … could be extremely proficient in the survival battles and rush to first place.
Thus, the probability of any one of them being number one did not exceed thirty percent!
Betting on who would be number one naturally meant that the chances of winning were very low.
The White Sand City Lord was not willing to bet! The Venomous Ying World Deity was not willing to bet either.
"No matter how much you say, you still have no confidence against Dongbo." The yellow-robed Venomous Ying World Deity shook her head as she looked at the arena.
The White Sand City Lord stroked his beard. He could feel that the Venomous Ying World Deity was targeting him. He grinned. "Haha, that's fine. I've won quite a bit from my previous bet. Then I'll be the banker … betting on Dongbo to be number one in the survival battles, one to one! Dongbo to be number two in the survival battles, one to two! Dongbo to be number three and beyond, one to five! The upper limit is ten million Deity crystals! "
"What boldness."
"Old Brother White Sand, you're really daring."
"You're that confident?"
Marshal Qin, King Rong Hai, the emissary of the Bloodshed God Palace, the Ink Cloud City Lord, and the Venomous Ying World Deity all looked at the White Sand City Lord.
This bet was too confident.
If Dongbo was number one, the odds would be one to one. This meant that no matter how much others bet, they would still have to pay the same amount. The moment they lost, they would lose everything! Thus, no one would be foolish enough to bet on him.
The odds for number two, one to two … was considered normal.
The odds for number three and beyond, one to five … were astonishing.
"White Sand, you're just sending yourself to death." The Venomous Ying World Deity sneered. "Why are you so confident?"
"The bet is right here. If you have the ability, then go ahead and bet." The White Sand City Lord looked at her.
"Rest assured. I'll satisfy you." The Venomous Ying World Deity had been suppressed during the banquet, and she had long been in a bad mood. Naturally, she would take this chance to earn some money.
"Haha, Old Brother White Sand, since you're opening such a bet, we'll have to take this chance to act." King Rong Hai laughed. "If Dongbo is number two, I'll bet five million Deity crystals. If Dongbo is number three and beyond, I'll bet five million Deity crystals as well! Tsk tsk … if he's number two, I'll break even. If he's number three and beyond, I'll earn fifteen million Deity crystals. As long as he's not number one, I won't lose anything! "
"Who said that Rong Hai's brain isn't good?" The Ink Cloud City Lord laughed. "As long as he's not number one, he won't lose anything. In fact, he might even earn a lot. Brother White Sand, you've earned quite a bit before. I'll do the same as Brother Rong Hai."
"Me too." Marshal Qin was all smiles.
"Me too." The emissary of the Bloodshed God Palace stood by the side.
The White Sand City Lord glared. "You guys are truly ruthless."
The four of them placed the same bet.
Second, five million Deity crystals.
Third and beyond, five million Deity crystals.
"You guys are too careful. I'll bet on the last one. Third or even lower. "The Venomous Ying World Deity sneered." Ten million Deity crystals! If you lose, you have to pay me fifty million Deity crystals! "
The upper limit was ten million Deity crystals.
The Venomous Ying World Deity placed all her bets on the last one.
"Don't be a sore loser when the time comes." The Venomous Ying World Deity sneered. Even a stage three World Deity would feel the pinch if they had to fork out fifty million Deity crystals.
"Dongbo is number one. I'll kill them all!" The White Sand City Lord shot a glance at the Venomous Ying World Deity before turning to the others. "Last time, I killed them all. This time, it might be the same."
"The survival battle … the rules are different. It's hard to say." The Ink Cloud City Lord laughed. The few of them had all seen the ranking battles, and they all believed that while Dongbo Xue Ying specialized in survival battles, he was not the best.
Monarch Mo Xue and the Calm Sea Prefecture Master could only laugh at this scene.
"I'm afraid that the White Sand City Lord will suffer a loss this time," the Calm Sea Prefecture Master transmitted.
"Mn. They've all misjudged him." Monarch Mo Xue nodded.
Soon.
The first two rounds of the arena battles came to an end, and the top 250 Deities were chosen. The arena battles had resulted in ninety-six Deity experts dying on the arena.
"The arena battles have come to an end. Three years from now, the final survival battle will be held. The final hundred Deities will represent the Calm Sea Prefecture to the Bloodshed God Palace! "the emissary announced.

The third chapter had come to an end. The fourth chapter, 'Tomato', was still being written.
