"You …" Nan Yu's face was livid as he pointed at Ye Futian. He had been humiliated in front of everyone.
He was from the Nantian House and had reached the Noble Plane. He did not expect Ye Futian to become so arrogant and condescending after entering the Holy Zhi Palace.
Nan Hao and Nan Feng also looked at Ye Futian coldly. The arrogance of the person who had won first place in the Law Battle was becoming more obvious.
Back in the Holy Road, he had deliberately left Ye Futian alone, wanting to let Ye Futian walk out of the Holy Road and watch the show between him and Hua Jieyu. However, he had not expected Ye Futian to defeat Zhuge Xing and Bai Ze after coming out of the Holy Road, taking first place in a dominating fashion and entering the Holy Zhi Palace. Now, he was with Hua Jieyu. Not only that, but many who had entered the Holy Zhi Palace together with him. Even Xu Que, who had defeated him, was beside Ye Futian.
Ye Futian glanced at Nan Yu. The elder of the Nantian House was also there, but he did not care. He looked at Nan Yu mockingly. Back then, he had been arrogant for being called a low-class clan in the Eastern Barren Territory. Today, he had felt what contempt and humiliation was.
"Ye Futian, first place in the Law Battle of the Holy Zhi Palace three years ago." Many people looked over and their eyes fell on Ye Futian. Was this extremely handsome young man Ye Futian?
Three years ago, he had defeated Bai Ze and Huang Jiuge to take first place. Now that three years had passed, he should have become even stronger.
Many cultivators who had been looking at ritual implements flashed over. Ye Futian saw many familiar faces. Bing Yi and Chu Shang from the Mortal World, Yan Jiu and the others from the Sword Saint Villa, and Xie Ji from the Sacred Fire Sect. They had all participated in the battle at the foot of the Holy Zhi Palace. Many of them had come to the Alchemy Casino.
With the arrival of these people, the atmosphere in this space became strange in an instant. Bing Yi, Xie Ji, and Yan Jiu had all been defeated by Ye Futian.
"The disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace are here." Many people walked over and looked at Ye Futian's group. Their eyes sparkled. They all had extraordinary temperaments.
The Holy Zhi Palace was the holy land of the Barren State. Although many top forces in the Alchemy City region did not participate in the assessment, the disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace would still be the center of attention no matter where they went.
Ye Futian glanced at the crowd and smiled. Then, he continued to walk forward. Immediately, the people around him followed him.
Since the disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace were here, they would definitely want the ritual implements, and if they wanted the Alchemy Casino's ritual implements, they would have to fight.
Did that mean that they would have the chance to witness the battle between the disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace?
Ye Futian's group wandered around and stopped at a place. Ye Wuchen stared at a short sword floating in the air before him. The sword was like a shadow, flickering in and out of existence. It was a ritual implement that could be integrated with a Life Spirit. Ye Wuchen's Life Spirit was a small silver sword, so he stopped here.
"I want this sword. How about the duel?" Ye Futian pointed at the sword and said. A group of people walked over from the side. They were all dressed in golden clothing. The person in the lead was an unfathomable elder. He looked in another direction and saw a group of swordsmen from the Sword Saint Villa standing there. Terrifying sharpness emanated from their bodies.
"The Sword Saint Villa also wants this sword. If it's a duel, one of you will have to fight against the Sword Saint Villa. Who wants to fight?" The elder said with a smile. If the Holy Zhi Palace and the Sword Saint Villa fought, it would definitely attract a lot of people.
Ye Futian looked at the elder and finally understood what Zhong Li meant. The rules of the duel were set by the Alchemy Casino. They could not possibly lose. For example, if they fought against the Sword Saint Villa, they would have to take out items of equal value to the sword as collateral. The casino would then measure the value. The treasures provided by both sides would definitely be what the Alchemy Casino liked, and the value would be higher than the sword. This way, if they made a deal with the Sword Saint Villa, no matter who won or lost, the casino would be the winner.
Moreover, the duel between the disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace and the Sword Saint Villa would also attract a lot of people.
Ye Futian looked at Yan Jiu and smiled. "You want to try again?"
Yan Jiu's eyes stared at Ye Futian like a sharp sword. Although his abilities had improved greatly in the past three years, Ye Futian had not been idle either. He was not confident that he would win.
"The heirs of the Tingxue Swordsman and the Wuji Swordsman did not have the chance to fight last time. How about …" the elder said with a smile, looking at Xu Que and Yan Jiu. Ye Futian glanced at him. This old fox. If the two heirs of the swordsmen were to fight, it would definitely cause a commotion.
"I don't have any objections." Xu Que shrugged and smiled.
Yan Jiu looked at Xu Que. In such a duel, he wanted to win. Against Xu Que, he was not confident that he would win.
"Me, Xu Que, and Yu Sheng, how about you pick one?" Ye Futian said. He did not ask about Yan Jiu's plane.
As the heir of the Sword Saint Villa, Yan Jiu's cultivation over the past three years was definitely not bad. If Ye Wuchen were to fight, he would not have much confidence. After all, Ye Wuchen's plane was definitely lower than Yan Jiu's.
"I pick Yu Sheng." Yan Jiu pointed at Yu Sheng. Back then, he had lost to Ye Futian, and Yu Sheng had lost to Xu Que.
Yu Sheng's combat ability was terrifying, but Xu Que had used movement techniques and sword techniques to defeat Yu Sheng. His sword was as fast as lightning, and he could do what Xu Que had done back then.
"Deal." Ye Futian smiled.
Yu Sheng glanced at Yan Jiu indifferently, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"This sword was forged by a sage, and it is an upper-level sage ritual implement. What would you all like to bet?" the elder asked Ye Futian and the others.
"The score of the Nine-fingered Guqin Devil, Liu Kuangsheng, the Mesmerizing Song," Ye Futian said.
"Deal." The elder smiled and nodded. The Nine-fingered Guqin Devil was a senior of the previous generation. His Mesmerizing Song had been famous throughout the Barren State, and countless top notch figures had succumbed to it. It was more than enough. It seemed that Ye Futian was extremely confident about this duel.
"Everyone, please." The elder pointed, and Ye Futian and the others stepped out. In an instant, everyone walked in one direction.
The people beside him asked the elder, "Do you want to start a bet?"
"Of course." The elder's expression was sharp. There was no way they would not start a battle like this.
"What bet?"
"Yu Sheng wins, two to one, and Yan Jiu wins, one to two," the elder said, smiling.
"This …" The eyes of the people beside him narrowed. Yu Sheng was that optimistic?
Yan Jiu was also a well-known figure. Furthermore, although Yu Sheng was strong, he had still lost to Xu Que. With such odds, it was certain that most people would bet on Yan Jiu.
If Yu Sheng lost, they would lose big.
"Don't worry." The elder walked away, a smile on his face. Yu Sheng would not lose. The odds he set were a bait, and his goal was to get people to bet on Yan Jiu.
As soon as the bets were opened, many people in the Alchemy Casino placed their bets on Yan Jiu. Yan Jiu was a top genius, and the heir of the Sword Saint Villa. Although he had lost to Ye Futian, it was later proven that Ye Futian was first in the Law Battle, so it was normal for him to lose.
Although Yu Sheng was strong, he had still lost to Xu Que. In this case, the odds should be fifty-fifty, but the odds were so unbalanced that it was only natural to bet on Yan Jiu.
Of course, there were also many who did not bet. The Alchemy Casino was very smart, and it was better to be cautious. Since they were optimistic about Yu Sheng, they naturally had their reasons.
The Alchemy Casino had a special battle platform. At the moment, on the platform, Yu Sheng and Yan Jiu had already stepped onto it. There were countless people in the stands.
Many people here had not been able to witness the battle in the Holy Zhi Palace. Now that they could see the battle between Yu Sheng and Yan Jiu, who had already entered the Holy Zhi Palace, they were naturally excited.
"These bastards from the Alchemy Casino." On the stands, the people from the Sword Saint Villa looked very unhappy after hearing the odds. Were they humiliating the Sword Saint Villa?
One to two and two to one, that was a difference of four times.
Yan Jiu also knew the odds. On the platform, the Sword Qi on his body was extremely sharp, and his expression was cold.
"Please," someone beside him said. Suddenly, the Sword Qi on Yan Jiu's body swayed, and the vast battle platform was surrounded by sword might. Now that he was already an upper-level noble, he was much stronger than before.
In the air, many dazzling heavy swords formed. Every one of them was shining with golden light and seemed to weigh thousands of kilograms. They floated above Yu Sheng's head, as if they were going to crush everything.
"So powerful." The surrounding people were excited. They could see sages fighting in the Alchemy Casino, but there were not many opportunities to see a battle between top-notch geniuses like this.
Yan Jiu's eyes released a terrifying flash of sword light. He pointed with his finger, and in an instant, nine heavy swords fell from the sky, aiming for Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng looked up, and then a terrifying light bloomed on his body, as if it had pierced through his body. He stepped on the ground, and a rumbling sound came from his body. The Jumen and Army Breaching acupoints were opened, and an extremely terrifying power exploded from his body. There seemed to be a frightening dark golden storm blowing on his body.
"Boom!"
A heavy sword fell, and Yu Sheng reached out with both hands. Many people's hearts trembled violently. Then, they saw the heavy sword descend, but Yu Sheng grabbed it with both hands. He stood in a horse stance, and his clothes were torn by the Sword Qi, revealing an extremely burly bronze-colored body that was filled with endless power.
Then, everyone saw Yu Sheng swing the heavy sword and throw it, smashing it towards the other eight falling swords.
"This …" Many people shuddered at the sight. Those who had bet on Yan Jiu had a bad feeling about this.
Loud explosions were heard, and the heavy swords were continuously destroyed. Yan Jiu's eyes shot out a terrifying flash of sword light, and Swords of Light and Darkness broke through the air. However, Yu Sheng's burly body was covered with a layer of dark golden demonic armor. The swords tore the armor apart, but his body was like armor, continuing to withstand the attacks of the swords without moving.
Yan Jiu's Light Shadow Sword and Dark Shadow Sword were extremely fast and deadly. Although they were not as powerful as the heavy sword, they were still extremely sharp and could cut down an enemy with one strike. Yet, they could not break through Yu Sheng's defense and physical body?
