It was only after his sixty-one consecutive victories that many cultivators began to view Xiao Lingyu as a powerful cultivator who could match up to Chen Xiao.
The owner of the underground fighting ring continued to advertise for Xiao Lingyu, building momentum for him, and actively arranging the next match for him. The practitioners who often came to the underground fighting ring of the Luo Sha Workshop had already realized that another freak who could be said to be invincible under the Heaven Reaching Realm had appeared.
Most of the cultivators who frequented the arena were there for the excitement and excitement. However, there were also many who came to witness the skills of the powerful cultivators and hoped to gain something from it.
Therefore, the more powerful the cultivator, the more attention they would attract.
Xiao Lingyu also won the next four matches. However, after his winning streak had increased to sixty-five matches, he did not sign up for the next one.
Xiao Lingyu had already accumulated more than three million and three hundred thousand Divine Psychic Stones. It was enough to gather all the materials needed to open the cave abode. Naturally, he would not continue to fight. After all, he did not come here for fame and fortune, nor did he want to earn more Divine Psychic Stones.
However, the owner of the underground arena was unwilling. Xiao Lingyu had won sixty-five consecutive matches. Winning more than three million Divine Psychic Stones was not a big deal. However, countless cultivators had continuously placed large bets on him, causing the underground arena to lose a lot of money. If he did not continue to fight, this loss would be equivalent to going down the drain.
Moreover, Xiao Lingyu's withdrawal from the competition when he was at the peak of his popularity could cause a loss of many spectators. At the very least, it would cause many spectators to lose their enthusiasm.
As early as when Xiao Lingyu had won forty-one consecutive matches, he had already been targeted by the owner of the underground arena. His every move seemed to be under the control of the other party.
In the past, he would immediately sign up for the next match after receiving his reward after winning a match. However, this time, he walked directly to the exit.
Therefore, the two cultivators guarding the entrance stopped him.
If Xiao Lingyu tried to force his way out of the underground arena, even if he could get to the surface, he would definitely be stopped.
One had to know that the person in charge of the underground arena was a genuine Divine Master. Otherwise, how could he invite a Divine Master to fight in the arena?
It was very dangerous to charge head-on, so Xiao Lingyu didn't act recklessly and stopped.
Twenty breaths later, a fat cultivator with a slightly bloated figure arrived at the entrance.
"Xiao Daoyou, are you willing to accompany me for a few drinks?" The fat cultivator asked with a smile.
Xiao Lingyu naturally knew that Fatty Tian had something to say, so he nodded and followed Fatty Tian to an underground secret room.
As for Zhang Fang and He Tai, they naturally did not have the qualifications to follow. They were left in the spectator stands to watch the battle below for free.
Fatty Tian was also a Holy God, so Xiao Lingyu wasn't afraid of him. The reason why the owner of the underground arena sent Fatty Tian was probably because he didn't want Xiao Lingyu to feel threatened.
There were no other arrangements in the secret room except for some soundproof restrictions. There were also no other experts.
Xiao Lingyu also thought that there might be danger, but he was still very confident because he could hide in the Chaotic Spectrum at any time.
Fatty Tian first set up a banquet, then poured a cup of wine for Xiao Lingyu. Then he said, "Xiao Daoyou is a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush. This time, I invited Xiao Daoyou to have a chat with me because I want Xiao Daoyou to stay and fight a few more matches. What do you think, Xiao Daoyou?"
Xiao Lingyu was very straightforward. He said, "It doesn't matter if we fight a few more matches, but there are three conditions."
Fatty Tian's expression didn't change. He said, "Xiao Daoyou, tell us first. As long as it's not too much, we can agree to it."
"First, I can fight at most ten more matches, and only one match can be arranged to be difficult. Second, the reward will be increased by twenty times. Third, no matter how I win or lose these ten matches, you have to let me go. Before I fight, you have to let everyone know that I will only fight ten matches." Xiao Lingyu said calmly.
Xiao Lingyu knew that he would be forced to stay, so he had already thought of these three conditions.
After hearing this, Fatty Tian pondered for a moment, then said, "These three conditions are not too much. We agree."
After the matter was settled, Xiao Lingyu naturally wouldn't enjoy the delicacies in this secret room, and Fatty Tian had someone arrange another quiet room for Xiao Lingyu to recuperate.
As soon as Xiao Lingyu left, Chen Xiao came to this secret room from the secret room next door.
"How dare you negotiate with us? How arrogant!"
The smile on Fatty Tian's face disappeared. It was replaced by a cold expression and a murderous aura.
Chen Xiao only frowned and didn't reply.
"How is it? Can you finish him in a hundred breaths?" Fatty Tian asked Chen Xiao.
"If nothing unexpected happens, it will take at most ten moves. However, I can't see through him. This is a huge surprise. I believe that his strength is not inferior to mine. Although I can be sure that he hasn't reached the Ascension Stage, it's obvious that he hasn't used his full strength in the previous sixty-five matches. Perhaps he still has many powerful moves that he hasn't used," Chen Xiao said coldly.
"Haha, it's rare that there's a cultivator below the Ascension Stage that you think so highly of. However, no matter how strong he is, he is destined to die under your Nether Heaven Wave. His Nascent Soul will help you cultivate the Nether Heaven Wave! The more powerful he is, the more advantageous it will be for our bet. "
Fatty Tian smiled in relief and then said, "In order to ensure that the majority of the gamblers bet on his victory, and in order for those gamblers to place bigger bets, before you fight with him, you have to go through a special battle first."
"What special match?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Challenge the Ascension Stage elite!" Fatty Tian said.
"Are you asking me to die? Although I boast that I'm invincible below the Ascension Stage, you should know that there's still a big gap between me and the Ascension Stage elite. I can barely protect myself against them, let alone attack them. The effect of my Nether Heaven Wave on the Ascension Stage elite is almost negligible. "Chen Xiao's expression changed and he shook his head.
"Haha, don't worry. Asking you to challenge the Ascension Stage elite is just a show for everyone."
Fatty Tian waved his hand and said, "The Ascension Stage elite we've invited will definitely hold back during the match. He will only injure you severely. Think about it, Xiao Lingyu is at his peak, and you're severely injured. When the two of you fight on the stage, won't there be more gamblers betting on his victory? "
Chen Xiao laughed coldly and said, "You're really confident in me. You're asking me to fight with an elite whose strength I can't see through, even though I'm severely injured."
Fatty Tian said, "I'm confident in the Nether Heaven Wave. Of course, I'll have to ask the higher-ups about this. If the higher-ups reject this suggestion, you can fight with him in your best condition. "
Chen Xiao snorted and said, "Based on my understanding of you, your suggestion will definitely be approved."
With that, Chen Xiao turned and left the secret room.
What made Xiao Lingyu angry and helpless was that in the next few matches, his opponents were not ordinary characters. Even if they were not experts at the peak of the late stage of the Holy God Stage, they were tough guys with special Divine Powers. None of them were weaker than Meng Zhong.
Xiao Lingyu did not question Fatty Tian because he knew that even if he did, Fatty Tian would say that there was no problem with his arrangement. After all, Xiao Lingyu had won and did not suffer any serious injuries.
Anyway, the reward was indeed increased by twenty times. Xiao Lingyu also received a large sum of Divine Psychic Stones. This was something he could take comfort in.
Moreover, Fatty Tian had also fulfilled a condition, which was that before Xiao Lingyu's sixty-sixth battle began, he had told everyone that Xiao Lingyu would only be able to fight another ten battles at most in this battle arena.
With so many practitioners as witnesses, it was believed that this underground arena, which had always boasted of its excellent reputation, would not go back on its word.
In nine consecutive matches, Xiao Lingyu had defeated nine Holy God Stage experts who had been famous for a long time. Naturally, his reputation in this underground arena had reached the peak.
Many cultivators were shouting for him to challenge Chen Xiao, or for Chen Xiao to challenge him.
The underground arena's owner had been increasing the publicity for Xiao Lingyu. The number of practitioners who bet on Xiao Lingyu's victory had been increasing. The amount of money bet on Xiao Lingyu had also increased exponentially.
Xiao Lingyu only had one last battle left, but this battle still hadn't arrived for a long time. He was waiting very patiently, silently recovering his energy.
Xiao Lingyu's battle had yet to begin, but a very shocking piece of news had already spread from the underground arena —
Chen Xiao, who had won 136 consecutive matches in this underground arena and was known to be invincible under the Master of Heaven, was going to challenge a Master of Heaven!
This news surprised many practitioners and filled them with anticipation. In their memory, there had never been a case of a Holy God Stage expert winning against a Master of Heaven.
The gap between the Holy God Stage and the Master of Heaven was far greater than the gap between the Emperor God Stage and the Holy God Stage.
Everyone had witnessed Chen Xiao's strength and there was no doubt about it. However, this was only under the Master of Heaven. Everyone felt that there was less than a twenty percent chance that he could defeat a Master of Heaven.
The underground gambling house had also opened a bet for this cross-level challenge. If Chen Xiao won, the practitioners who bet on him would receive five hundred times the amount of their bet. However, if the Master of Heaven won, the practitioners who bet on him would only receive thirty percent of their bet.
As a result, many cultivators who had confidence in Chen Xiao and were willing to take a gamble, and were greedy for the five-hundred-fold compensation, placed their bets on Chen Xiao.
The battle between Chen Xiao and the Master of Divine Mastery cultivator began a month after the news spread. The battle between the two of them was very exciting. Both of them went back and forth, and it took more than ten moves for the victor to be decided.
In the end, Chen Xiao lost to the unknown Master of Heaven due to the difference in their cultivation levels and was severely injured.
