What? A second-grade pill king against the fourth arena's champion, Lv Hesheng? Are you kidding me? A pill king is actually going to fight in the arena? " Before the introducer's voice had even faded, the several hundred people around the arena erupted into an uproar.
"It's absolutely true. Why would my Hualin Arena say such nonsense to mislead everyone? Everyone, take a look! "The introducer waved his hand, and a screen of light appeared in the air. It was an azure-robed, silver-haired figure with an indifferent expression.
"Who is this? We don't know him at all," someone immediately said.
"Yes, yes. This is Pill King Lu, who made a name for himself at Green Lotus Temple's pill gathering. I've seen him before. "One of the pill grandmasters who took part in the bet was from Moon Spirit Pill Workshop. Although Moon Spirit Pill Workshop wasn't as famous as Huayang's three major pill workshops, it was still quite famous in Yuan Spirit City.
In addition to this person, two other pill grandmasters present also spoke up. With these pill refiners speaking up, the others couldn't help but believe it. For a moment, the scene was extremely lively. Everyone was loudly discussing this extremely rare battle.
At this time, the odds were out. 1.3: 1.
"Are you kidding me? Lv Hesheng is a somewhat famous person, and he's also in the late stage of Soul Formation. How can the odds be so low against a mere mid stage Soul Formation body cultivator like Pill King Lu?" Immediately, someone was extremely dissatisfied with the odds.
"I think Pill King Lu just wants to make a name for himself."
"A ratio of 1.3?" Lu Xiaotian was startled. It was a bit lower than he'd imagined. However, if he could win this round, it would be enough to keep him busy for a while.
"Brother Lu sure is willing to bet heavily." At this time, Yu Zimo and the others came in one after another.
"How much did you guys bet?" Zhu Jinfu asked casually.
"I bet six thousand," Yu Zimo said.
"I bet five thousand five hundred," Guo Jingyu said.
"We're a bit poorer. We only bet four thousand," Zhou Yu and Cui Liu said at the same time.
When Zhu Jinfu heard this, his expression immediately became very interesting.
"What, Brother Zhu has always been generous. Don't tell me you think we bet too little? To be honest, I've already taken out everything I have. If it weren't for the fact that I earned quite a lot from the last trip to the Demon Kraken, I would only be able to take out five to six hundred gold coins. "Zhou Yu scratched his head and smiled in embarrassment.
"Hey, Brother Zhu, why are you in such a hurry?" Yu Zimo called out from behind.
"I'll go raise the stakes!" Zhu Jinfu replied. After a long while, Zhu Jinfu returned with an unpleasant expression.
"What's wrong with Brother Zhu?" Guo Jingyu teased, "Don't tell me the time for raising stakes has passed."
"The few of you are quite confident, huh? Aren't you afraid of losing everything? "Zhu Jinfu glanced at them.
"It's useless to say more. Anyway, it's about to start. You deserve it. You've worked with Brother Lu for so long, yet you still have so little confidence in him. How much did you play? "Guo Jingyu laughed.
"Three thousand," Zhu Jinfu said grumpily.
"That's not bad. Hehe. "Guo Jingyu and the others laughed when they heard this. "That Hua Yifeng is also a good-for-nothing. He only helped He Wenyu calculate Brother Lu's low-grade spirit crystals. He actually dared to make a killing move. We can't just go against Hua Yifeng directly, so we can only place some bets to calm them down. I'm sure they're having a headache right now. "
"What? The six of them combined bet more than thirty thousand low-grade spirit crystals? "Wu Jihai's expression changed slightly when he saw the details of the bets. It had to be known that ordinary Soul Formation cultivators would rarely bet one or two hundred low-grade spirit crystals. Most of the bets were in the tens or even tens of thousands.
For an ordinary duel, there would only be a hundred Soul Formation cultivators. As for those Nascent Soul cultivators, they wouldn't even be able to enter and could only place their bets by name. In other words, for a small duel, the total bet for the winner and loser wouldn't be more than ten thousand low-grade spirit crystals. Hualin Arena used a commission method, so most of the time, they would definitely make a profit.
Right now, besides Lu Xiaotian and the other five people, the rest of the people bet on Lv Hesheng's victory. There were also some who bet on Lu Xiaotian, a Tier Two Elixir King, but only about thirty percent of the bets. In terms of bets, the ratio was about seven to three.
Because of the appearance of a Tier Two Elixir King in this duel, the number of bets attracted almost three times more.
"If Lv Hesheng wins this duel, it'll be fine. If he loses, our arena will lose a lot of money." Wu Jihai instructed the clan brother next to him, "Ji Jun, go find Lv Hesheng personally and give him a few elixirs to help him recover his Dharmic powers and increase his battle strength. During the duel, no one is allowed to take elixirs. Let him take them in advance. "
"Ji Wu, immediately send people to gather more information about Lu Xiaotian. The duel has just started and they've already placed such heavy bets. If Lu Xiaotian wins, I'm afraid things won't end so easily."
"This, it can't be, right?" Hua Yifeng frowned. He also felt that the severity of the situation seemed to have exceeded his original expectations. Judging from the accounts, if Lu Xiaotian were to win this battle, the Hualin Arena would lose more than 16,000 Low Grade Spirit Crystals under the circumstances of the serious imbalance between the winning and losing sides.
"We'll know the specifics after this duel. However, Zhu Jinfu, Yu Zimo, and the others are all extremely shrewd people. I'm afraid this matter won't be simple, "Wu Jihai said with a straight face.
While Wu Jihai was worrying, the black-robed Lv Hesheng had already entered the arena. The duel arena was abnormally spacious and there were extremely strict defensive restrictions all around.
On the left side of Lv Hesheng's forehead was a hideous scar so deep that bone could be seen. The gaze he used to look at Lu Xiaotian with was extremely vicious.
"Alright, time's up. This highly anticipated duel will officially begin!" The person who introduced the duel said loudly, "This is the first time Pill King Lu has come to our Hualin Arena. I'll repeat the old rules. In order to avoid being seen as fake, you can't fight unless you lose the ability to fight back."
"Lv Hesheng, please enlighten me!" The burly Lv Hesheng cupped his hands towards Lu Xiaotian.
"I will." Lu Xiaotian nodded.
Immediately, the crowd around the arena roared with laughter.
"You're just wasting your breath!" Lv Hesheng's eyes were fierce. With a wave of his hands, five wooden handles appeared behind him and shot towards Lu Xiaotian as fast as lightning.
Although they were wooden spears, they were harder than metal. Facing these five wooden spears, Lu Xiaotian didn't panic. He opened his left hand and the Sky Piercer appeared. "Ding ding ding …" The five wooden spears formed a chain and attacked fiercely. They didn't give Lu Xiaotian any chance to catch his breath.
The five wooden spears rose and fell in the air like fluttering plum blossoms.
However, no matter how powerful the attacks of these five wooden spears were, Lu Xiaotian didn't seem to make any extra movements. He simply stabbed and swept with the Sky Piercer in his hand and repelled these five wooden spears time and time again.
They didn't even see how Lu Xiaotian moved his feet.
The sky was filled with spear shadows and the Sky Piercer thrusting out one after another.
In this kind of intense collision, not only did it consume magic power, it also consumed Divine Sense even more. Towards the end, most of the people around only felt that the two people fighting fiercely were a blur and couldn't see their figures clearly.
