After returning to Yi Palace, Su Mo and Gu Tian Yi sat opposite each other in his temporary residence and chatted.
"Su Mo, your battle today was really exciting. You greatly reduced Zhu Tong's morale!" Gu Tian Yi said with a smile.
"Zhu Tong is nothing compared to the real godly geniuses!" Su Mo shook his head.
"Indeed, you have already obtained a placing. All you need to do now is wait for the Sky Dragon Contest!" Gu Tian Yi agreed.
"Mm!" Su Mo nodded his head.
"There is still half a year left. Do you have the confidence to raise your cultivation rank by another rank? If not, you might not be able to fight against the geniuses of the Sorcerer Tribe. "Gu Tian Yi asked.
His words were reserved. In actual fact, he did not think that Su Mo could fight against the godly geniuses of the Sorcerer Tribe.
Even if Su Mo raised his cultivation rank by another rank, the chances of him being able to fight against them were not high.
"It shouldn't be a problem!" Su Mo said in a low voice. To him, raising his cultivation rank by one rank in half a year's time was easy. However, raising his cultivation rank by two ranks would be extremely difficult.
"That's good!"
Gu Tian Yi nodded his head. After pondering for a while, he laughed, "Su Mo, you have been in seclusion during this period of time. You might not know, but the entire Ancientspirit Galaxy is betting on the Sky Dragon Contest. Almost all the stars are betting on it."
"Betting? What betting? "Su Mo asked curiously. He had been in seclusion and did not pay attention to the outside world.
"It's like this. Because the Sky Dragon Contest is nearing, many large merchant houses in the various stars have opened bets on who will be the champion of the Sky Dragon Contest!"
Gu Tian Yi smiled as he explained. He continued, "There are a few very popular candidates. Of course, because of the matter between you and the Sorcerer Tribe, your name has also been hung up!"
"Interesting. What exactly is going on?" Su Mo's interest was piqued. He wanted to see who the most popular candidates were.
After all, the most popular people would become his opponents.
"Currently, on many of the stars, there is a list of people who have the potential to win the championship. There are a total of ten people who are the most likely to win the championship. From there, bets are opened based on these ten people. Perhaps there are a few stars where the ten people are not exactly the same, but generally speaking, there is not much difference."
"First place, Triple Deities Sect, Xue Juntian, the odds are one to one."
"Second place, Wu Qiong of the Sorcerer Tribe. The odds are one to one."
"Third place, Ju Shen of the Giant Spirit Clan. The odds are one to one."
"Fourth place, Black Spirit Clan, Hei Yaohuang, 1: 1."
"Fifth place, Fei Tianyu of the Flying Spirit Clan, 1: 1."
"Sixth place, Shiki from the Snow Lion Clan, the odds are one to two."
"Seventh place, Mo Wuqing of the Saint Devil Hall. The payout is 1: 2."
"Eighth place, Xi Taiyun of the Bluecloud Rhinoceros Race, 1: 2."
"Ninth place, Wu Yexin of the Witch Tribe, odds 1: 3."
"Number ten, Triple Deities Sect, Qin Yun. The odds are one to three."
Gu Tian Yi's mouth did not stop, and in one breath, he listed out the ten most popular people.
Su Mo's eyes lit up. Qin Yun was ranked tenth and the odds were one to three. It was obvious that his chances of winning the championship were not high.
Only the top five had a 1: 1 payout rate, and they were recognized by the public as the ones with the highest chances of winning the championship.
"Didn't you say that I was on the list?" Su Mo asked curiously. Now that the top ten names had been listed, his name was not on the list!
"You are not in the top ten most popular names."
Gu Tian Yi shook his head and continued, "However, as the matter between you and the Sorcerer Tribe is too big, your name will naturally not be forgotten. Your odds are 1: 20."
Eh ~ ~
Su Mo was speechless. Did these people have so little confidence in him? They had actually offered a odds of 1: 20.
"This … Su Mo, please don't mind it. After all, many people are not clear about your true strength!" Gu Tian Yi laughed. In actual fact, he had offered a odds of 1: 20 because he did not want to embarrass Su Mo.
In actual fact, only a few big businesses in Star Guzhou and Red Millet Star offered a odds of 1: 20 for Su Mo.
In other places in the Ancientspirit Galaxy, there were many stars that offered odds as high as 1: 100 for Su Mo and some even higher.
After all, in many people's eyes, it was impossible for Su Mo to win the championship. Even if they offered a odds of 1: 10,000, they would not lose anything.
"No worries, the truth speaks louder than words!" Su Mo shook his head. He did not care about this. When the time came, the truth would be revealed to everyone.
However, what he was considering now was whether he should lower his odds since they were so high.
If he won the championship, wouldn't he earn a lot of money?
"Mm, I have high hopes for you!" Gu Tian Yi laughed.
"Brother Gu, have you placed a bet?" Su Mo asked curiously. He was curious as to who Gu Tian Yi had high hopes for.
"No. However, with our relationship, I will place a bet on you. Don't disappoint me!" Gu Tian Yi shook his head.
However, he had lied. In actual fact, he had already sent someone to place a bet at the biggest business in Saint Royal City.
He had placed a large bet on Xue Juntian of the Triple Deities Sect. The person he had high hopes for was Xue Juntian of the Triple Deities Sect.
Of course, Su Mo was his man after all and he would place a bet on Su Mo in the future.
"Don't worry!" Su Mo nodded his head. The blood in his heart started to boil.
He had waited so long for the Sky Dragon Contest and it was finally about to begin.
"Oh right, Brother Gu, you are knowledgeable. Do you know what the rules of the Sky Dragon Contest are?" Su Mo asked curiously. He wanted to understand the rules beforehand.
"In the past, the rules were always an arena duel. However, I heard that the rules have been changed this time!" Gu Tian Yi said.
"What rules have been changed?" Su Mo frowned. Although the arena duel was old fashioned, it was the fairest way. Su Mo did not want to change the rules of the arena duel.
"I am not sure. Some time ago, I heard that many superpowers in the Ancientspirit Galaxy requested that they not follow the rules of the arena duel. They said that they wanted to change the rules. I am not sure about the specifics!" Gu Tian Yi shook his head.
Su Mo sighed inwardly. Since Gu Tian Yi did not know, he did not ask further. No matter what the rules were changed, strength would be the deciding factor.
"Su Mo, I will not disturb you any further. Goodbye!"
After chatting for a while, Gu Tian Yi stood up and said his goodbyes.
Su Mo did not ask him to stay. With that, Gu Tian Yi left the palace.
Su Mo sat alone in the palace. His eyes narrowed as he slowly communicated with his avatar, Su Yi.
Su Yi was the avatar of Shangguan Hao in the Red Dragon Camp. He had always been in the Firmament Palace.
Because of Emperor Shi, Su Mo had changed his name to Su Yi.
Su Mo used his Spiritual Consciousness to inform Su Yi to inform Emperor Shi to place a bet for him at the Chamber of Commerce outside for the Sky Dragon Contest. Furthermore, he had to place a large bet.
Of course, in order to successfully place bets in the future, he had to choose the largest and most reputable Merchant Guild in Star Guzhou.
After informing Su Yi, Su Mo stood up and walked into the cultivation room.
There was still half a year before the Sky Dragon Contest and he was pressed for time.
Not only did he have to increase his cultivation rank, he also had to refine the Natal Spiritual Sword and merge it with the Chaotic Energy.
