When Li Mochen first arrived at the Purple Lily Charity Ball, he was given the cold shoulder. Anthony Braden, who walked in with him, was immediately surrounded by many political and business celebrities. Few people on Li Mochen's side spoke to him.
He could see that it was not that many of them did not know him, but that they did not want to talk to him.
"It can't be helped. In order to maintain their sense of mystery, the Freemasonry has always maintained the conservative style of centuries ago. Before the charity ball begins, they will not make the subject and purpose of the meeting public. Even now, many people still think that the reason you can become the first heir of the Wildenstein family is because of the support of your grandfather, Conxiuli, at all costs. Very few people know the details of the battle that day. And they are also very repulsed by your identity as a fighter. "
Alisa spread her hands helplessly. "But there is no need to care. These are just some small fries who are not well-informed. The real important people have not yet entered the venue. We have been tricked by Anthony — "
She glanced at Anthony's back with resentment and said, "He came here so early just to chase after women!"
In fact, even without Alisa's explanation, Li Mochen could tell the situation from the conversations of the people around him. The pure-blood Titan's hearing allowed the voices of these people to pour into his ears.
"— His mother should be the illegitimate daughter of the Wildenstein family, right? The Benedict family is really unlucky. "
"Not an illegitimate daughter. She was born after marriage. But the situation is more or less the same. That Conxiuli, he really did it. "
"Haha, that guy is now a fighting star to put it nicely, and a gladiator to put it bluntly. Is he any different from those ancient slave gladiators? "
"But I heard that he is very profitable, and his net worth is already more than ten billion gold guilders."
"No matter how profitable he is, he is still a jackass."
"I think we still have to deal with the matter of the Wildenstein family. Philip the First will not let Conxiuli act so recklessly, and the Benedict family will not let it go. His three children are not people who can be easily manipulated. Look at how smug he is — "
Li Mochen only heard a few words before he simply sealed off most of his hearing. Then, he saw his opponent, Felton Williams, the day after tomorrow.
The latter was also in a state of being neglected and could only stay in the corner alone. However, after noticing Li Mochen, he walked over.
"It seems that even the identity of the Wildenstein family's crown prince did not make you more popular."
The man's laughter was full of sarcasm. "I heard that you've become the first heir of the Wildenstein family a month ago. At that time, I thought how amazing you were. But now, it seemed like that was all. In the real upper class, you're still a loser. "
"Get lost!"
Li Mochen didn't have the demeanor of someone who would gladly endure vulgarities. But before he opened his mouth … Alisa directly scolded and stared coldly at Felton Williams. "Figure out who you are. Do you want me to find someone to drive you out?"
Williams's face suddenly turned green and white. He looked at Alisa angrily and then turned to look at Li Mochen. "Just you wait! In the arena the day after tomorrow, I will repay your assistant for the humiliation she has given me. I will crush everything you have now and make you the laughing stock of everyone. By the way — "
He smiled again, his eyes unreadable. "Your ancestor, Philip the First, came to me not long ago. He taught me some ways to deal with your family's Dragon Vein. I'll use it in the arena the day after tomorrow. "
Li Mochen watched the man leave. He turned to Alisa and asked, "Alisa. You should have bought a bet? "
"Of course! I borrowed 20 ID cards, but I haven't bet yet. Although the number is small, it's still a source of income. "
Alisa replied with a smile, "Those who know your strength won't let go of this opportunity, except for people like Anthony."
"Then let me remind you this time, you can't bet on a hundred rounds."
The corners of Li Mochen's lips curled up slightly. His smile was a little cold. "I don't think it will reach that number. At most, I will finish the battle within three rounds."
"Understood!"
Alisa's eyes were slightly happy. "I can bet on you winning within three rounds. Some bookmakers will also offer such a bet with the highest odds of 120. But will that be okay? Your sponsors and the broadcasting stations will definitely be furious. "
"This is also Mr. Paton's idea. He wants me to destroy this guy, but I never agreed. But this guy himself — "
When Li Mochen said this, he paused slightly. From the corner of his eye, he saw a beautiful girl in a light white evening dress walking over from the entrance.
"Angela —"
Surprised, Li Mochen wondered why Angela was also in Los Angeles. While he was still puzzled, the girl had already locked her eyes on him and rushed over.
However, this person was accompanied by two young men.
"La Dia, you see, I have a boyfriend. You should know him."
Angela directly hugged Li Mochen's arm. "I don't want to talk to you. Stay away from me, okay?"
One of the two young men was already staring at Li Mochen with a gloomy face. "I know you, lucky André, the heir of the Wildenstein family. Listen to me, my friend, okay? This is an internal matter of the Medici family. If you don't want to get into trouble that you can't afford to or bring disaster to your family, then you'd better stay away from Angela! For the sake of the Hohenstaufen bloodline, this is my last warning to you. "
Li Mochen couldn't help but smile. "There's no need to warn me, sir. If you can bring disaster to me, then do as you please."
Not counting in the Original Firmament Realm, he had already experienced this kind of threat several times in this world.
The young man's eyes were immediately filled with anger. However, the other next to him frowned. "That's beneath you, La Dia. Even if you're the heir of a second-rate family, you don't have to say so much to him. You don't have to say so much to him. There are many people watching us here. It's not good. Also, I think this place stinks, the stench of a country bumpkin — "
La Dia was stunned for a moment, then said helplessly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
He glared at Li Mochen with eyes full of killing intent, then left with the other man with a straight face.
"That's La Dia, my cousin. The other is a member of the Don Quixote family, Josef Don Quixote. He's the 26th heir of the Don Quixote family. "
Angela helplessly explained the situation to Li Mochen. "These two are nobodies from the most powerful families. They're obviously nothing, but their noses are so high up in the sky. They look down on everyone."
Li Mochen asked curiously, "Why are you in Los Angeles? Don't you have class? "
The group battles for Angela and the others would only begin after the individual battles in five days.
