"Chen Xiao concedes defeat. Xiao Lingyu … wins!"
When the judge announced the result of the battle, Xiao Lingyu put away his supernatural powers and Dharma treasures and calmly walked down from the arena.
The arena, which had been temporarily expanded by ten times, erupted with waves of cheers that were as loud as a tsunami.
To many gamblers, they cared more about the result than the process of the battle.
More than seventy percent of the gamblers had bet on Xiao Lingyu. Now that Xiao Lingyu had won, they naturally made a fortune. How could they not be excited?
Although there were a few cultivators who had bet on Chen Xiao's victory who cursed, their voices were drowned out. They could only smile helplessly.
When he reached Zhang Fang and He Tai, Xiao Lingyu said, "If I'm not wrong, you must have bet on Chen Xiao's victory."
Zhang Fang and He Tai did not dare to make a sound. They lowered their heads guiltily.
"It's a good thing that I won four million Psychic Divine Stones from this battle. Otherwise, we'd have to worry about the three hundred Psychic Divine Stones."
Xiao Lingyu did not immediately blame Zhang Fang and He Tai. After saying that, he went to collect his prize for winning the battle.
"Come with me."
After collecting four million Psychic Divine Stones, Xiao Lingyu led Zhang Fang and He Tai to the arena's entrance.
As he was a celebrity, he naturally attracted a lot of attention. Moreover, he had just defeated Chen Xiao, so his reputation was at its peak. Countless cultivators followed behind Xiao Lingyu as if to send him off.
Everyone knew that Xiao Lingyu and Chen Xiao's battle was the last battle.
With so many cultivators watching, the person in charge of the underground arena naturally would not go back on his word and stop Xiao Lingyu.
However, as Xiao Lingyu walked down the stairs to the ground, he heard a voice.
"Xiao Daoyou, can you talk to me for a while longer?"
"I should go."
"Xiao Daoyou, I have something good to talk to you about."
"We'll talk about it later."
"Since Fellow Daoist is in a hurry to leave, I'll be frank with you. We'd like to invite Fellow Daoist to stay and continue fighting. We can increase the rewards by a hundred times for each battle."
"Then let's talk about it the next time I come. I won't be leaving for long anyway. If Fellow Daoist Tian is sincere, you shouldn't mind waiting for a few more days."
"Fellow Daoist, you might not know, but our underground arena is actually set up by a powerful organization. There are many markets on Heavenly Saint Island, and our organization not only has the top ten experts on Heavenly Saint Island, but also many Heavenly Saint experts. If a young genius like Fellow Daoist is chosen by the organization, your future will definitely be limitless."
"I see. Let me think about it for a few days."
"Alright then. I'll wait for Xiao Daoyou's reply. However, I'll first pass on some information about you to the experts of the organization. I hope you'll keep your word and come back."
Fatty Tian's voice stopped there. His last sentence clearly carried a hint of threat.
Accompanied by countless gamblers, Xiao Lingyu exited the underground arena and left Luo Sha Lane. Then, he flew up into the sky.
As he flew up, Xiao Lingyu brought out his tubular Sacred artefact. Next, he activated his Greater Teleportation.
As soon as Xiao Lingyu disappeared into the sky, a cultivator with unfathomable cultivation appeared where he had been.
The cultivator frowned and looked around. He muttered, "That kid ran pretty fast!"
In a secret room in Luo Sha Lane's underground arena, Fatty Tian pointed at the pale Chen Xiao and said, "Even with the help of the Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, the Spirit Concealing Glove, he still lost to that guy and made us lose hundreds of millions of Divine Psychic Stones. What a piece of trash!"
Chen Xiao's face turned even uglier after being scolded. He glared at Fatty Tian and said, "If you think you're good, why don't you go up and try yourself?"
"If I need to go up, what's the use of keeping you around?" Fatty Tian said coldly.
"If you didn't ask me to challenge a Divine Master before my battle with him and fight with him with my injured body, would I have lost?" Chen Xiao retorted indignantly.
"Are you doubting my arrangement?" Fatty Tian asked with narrowed eyes.
"There's no need to doubt your arrangement. It's obviously very stupid," Chen Xiao said bluntly.
"You're asking for it!" Fatty Tian flew into a rage.
Unfortunately, Fatty Tian had just slammed the table when Chen Xiao grabbed him by the neck.
"How dare you lay your hands on me? Do you know that there's a Divine Master from an organization here? "
After all, Fatty Tian was only at the Holy God stage. How could he be a match for Chen Xiao? He had no power to resist at all when Chen Xiao grabbed his neck.
"Hmph! Do you think I don't know that this underground arena was set up by the Holy Army? The Holy Army set up this arena not to gather Divine Psychic Stones, but to find and win over promising powerhouses! So what if I lose some Divine Psychic Stones? What the Holy Army cares about is powerhouses, not mere Divine Psychic Stones! "
As he spoke, Chen Xiao increased the strength of his palm. He was still wearing the Divine Spiritual Treasure, the Spirit Concealing Gloves.
"At least this time, I've helped you find Xiao Lingyu. If you can recruit him into the Holy Army, wouldn't it be a great merit for you?"
Chen Xiao sneered. "However, you're just a fatty without a brain. I don't think you'll be able to win him over. What's the use of keeping a mediocre person like you in the Holy Army? If I kill you here, the Holy Army won't even feel the slightest bit of heartache. "
As he spoke, Chen Xiao increased the strength of his palm and broke Fatty Tian's neck.
Chen Xiao's hand fell and pierced Fatty Tian's lower abdomen. He took out the Nascent Soul and sealed it with a transparent wave. Then, he put it away in his storage artifact.
Smack! Smack …
A cultivator walked into the secret chamber and praised, "You've got guts, you've got guts!"
Chen Xiao looked at the cultivator and realized that it was the Master of Divine Mastery who had fought with him before. He immediately cupped his hands and bowed, saying, "I believe you won't come looking for trouble with me just because I killed this fatty, right?"
The cultivator shook his head. "He's just a Divine Master. His death is not to be regretted. There are countless Divine Masters like him in the Holy Army. However, since you've killed him today, there will be no one to take care of the Luo Sha Workshop's underground arena. I'll have to find another Divine Master. It'll be very troublesome. "
Chen Xiao was also a smart person. He asked directly, "Senior, if you have any orders for me, just say it."
The cultivator smiled and nodded. "It's easy to talk to you. Since you've killed Fatty Tian, the Holy Army has one less steward. I can only ask you to swear an oath to join the Holy Army. If you become a member of the Holy Army, your killing of Fatty Tian will be an internal matter of the Holy Army. Naturally, the Holy Army will not send out any Divine Master to punish you. However, if you're not a member of the Holy Army, even if Fatty Tian deserved to die, he shouldn't have died at the hands of an outsider. Then, the Holy Army will see you as an enemy. "
Chen Xiao really had no other choice. He had no intention of joining the Holy Army, but now he could only nod in front of this Divine Master.
Chen Xiao knew that if he refused to join the Holy Army, this Divine Master, who seemed to be amiable at the moment, would definitely fall out with him in the next moment.
Chen Xiao had seen how powerful this Divine Master was before. Even with the Soul Concealing Gloves, he still couldn't defeat him.
"As the saying goes, a wise man submits to circumstances. I'm very satisfied with your performance. I believe that the Holy Army's experts will welcome you."
After Chen Xiao made the oath, the Divine Master gave him a storage pouch. He then said, "There's your identity token as a member of the Holy Army, as well as a set of golden armor and a golden spear. These are all standard equipment."
"Can you give me the Soul Concealing Gloves?" Chen Xiao asked after receiving the storage pouch.
"Of course!"
The Divine Master first gave an affirmative answer, but then he said, "However, Divine Spiritual Treasures are not Divine Weapons. Even if the Holy Army is powerful, they don't have many Divine Spiritual Treasures. I can give you the Soul Concealing Gloves, but you must first be qualified to own them. In other words, you must first ascend to the Divine Master realm. Of course, now that you're only half a step away from the Divine Master realm, the Holy Army will provide you with all the help you need to ascend to the Divine Master realm. "
Although he was reluctant to part with the gloves, Chen Xiao still took off the Soul Concealing Gloves and removed their ownership. He then returned them to the Divine Master.
"I'm only temporarily keeping them for you. These gloves will be yours sooner or later," the Divine Master said after putting away the gloves.
Chen Xiao was confident that he could ascend, so he didn't waste any more words. He immediately went to his own secret room.
"I hope I can see Xiao Lingyu again and compete with him again. But if I ascend to the Divine Master realm and he doesn't, it'll be meaningless to fight. "
Chen Xiao sat down cross-legged. When he thought of this, he laughed bitterly in self-mockery. When did I become so competitive?
After the Great Shift, Xiao Lingyu put away the tubular Divine Weapon and then landed in a forest.
"There's a market three thousand miles to the east. You two go in and collect the materials. I'll wait for you here."
After instructing Zhang Fang and He Tai, Xiao Lingyu directly disappeared and entered the Chaos Spectrum.
Zhang Fang and He Tai were very surprised by Xiao Lingyu's sudden disappearance. They didn't feel any spatial fluctuations when he teleported, and they couldn't tell how Xiao Lingyu had disappeared at all.
Zhang Fang and He Tai didn't dare to tarry in the same place. They immediately flew east.
Perhaps if we perform well, this Senior Xiao will let us go.
With this thought in mind, Zhang Fang and He Tai began to seriously purchase the materials in the market.
Naturally, one market couldn't collect all the materials. However, with the tubular Divine Weapon that allowed them to teleport, Zhang Fang and He Tai could quickly reach any market nearby under Xiao Lingyu's lead. The speed at which they collected the materials was naturally not slow.
In less than ten days, Zhang Fang and He Tai spent three million Psychic Divine Stones to purchase all the materials.
