The Divine Pavilion was a shop opened by an elder of the Taisheng branch.
Of course, as an elder of the Supreme Realm, under normal circumstances, he would not waste his time managing the Divine Pavilion. It was mainly managed by his disciples.
The Divine Pavilion was not an ordinary shop. It did not sell any treasures. It only provided a place for the disciples of the Taisheng branch.
Su Mo and Qin Zhi walked into the Divine Pavilion together and were greeted by a row of huge crystals.
There were 20 of them, and each of them was as tall as a human. They were emerald green and looked like stone steles made of precious jade.
The 20 crystals were arranged neatly in the center of the vast shop and glowed with emerald green light.
At this moment, two people were standing in front of most of the crystals with their palms on them. There were also a few that were left untouched.
Some of the people standing in front of the crystals looked pale, some were sweating profusely, and some looked smug.
There were a lot of people in the shop. Thousands of people were bustling about, and noises of discussion could be heard endlessly.
Of course, all of them were standing outside the row of crystals, which was close to the door of the Divine Pavilion.
On the other side of the row of crystals, there were three people standing. One of them was a middle-aged man, while the other two were young men. Both of them wore yellow robes with the words' Divine Pavilion 'embroidered on them.
"Brother Wu Shan, do you see these crystals?" Qin Zhi pointed at the 20 huge crystals and asked.
"What is this?" Su Mo asked. He already had a guess as he listened to the commotion.
"These crystals are called Deity Crystals. They are specially refined treasures that allow people to fight inside. They fight with willpower, which is to say, the power of the Spiritual Soul!"
Qin Zhi looked solemn and continued, "To put it bluntly, this is a place for fighting, or rather, a place for gambling."
"I see!" Su Mo nodded. When he saw this scene and heard the countless discussions around him, he understood what was going on.
Gambling!
He used to do this kind of thing often. However, he had never seen gambling with the power of the Spiritual Soul.
"Look at those three. They are the managers of the Divine Pavilion, and they will take a 10% commission for every bet!"
Qin Zhi then pointed at the three people wearing the Divine Pavilion's yellow robes behind the crystal and continued, "No matter what the bet is, you have to take a 10% cut. If it's a bet on a treasure, the treasure will be converted into a 10% cut of the Origin Stone's price."
"So expensive?"
Su Mo was speechless. If others were to bet 1,000,000 Dawn Stones, the other party would take 100,000 Dawn Stones. That was too much!
"There's nothing we can do about it!" Qin Zhi shook his head. If he wanted to gamble, he could find all kinds of opponents here.
Then, Su Mo quietly watched the other fights in the Divine Pavilion.
The cultivations of the people here varied. There were Tier One and Tier Two cultivators, and there were also Divine Kings. The wager for the battle was also different. The lowest was ten thousand high-grade Origin Stones, and the highest was hundreds of thousands of high-grade Origin Stones.
The speed of the duel was very fast. Basically, the outcome of the duel could be decided within a dozen breaths.
As long as the victor was determined and the bet was paid, the three people from the Divine Pavilion would have to pay a commission.
No one dared to renege on the payment because the Divine Pavilion was backed by the Elders of the Tai Sheng Branch.
"Qin Zhi, are you still in the mood to come to the Divine Pavilion?"
At this moment, a cold voice came from behind Su Mo and Qin Zhi.
Su Mo turned his head and saw a man and a woman walking in from the gate of the Divine Pavilion.
The man was more muscular and taller than the average person. He wore a leather short-sleeved shirt and looked very strong.
As for the woman, she wore a green shirt and looked to be in her twenties. She was beautiful and her skin was tender. Her eyes were like a fox's and were full of charm.
The person who spoke just now was the strong young man.
"Cui Yan!" Seeing the strong young man, Qin Zhi's eyes were filled with anger and he unconsciously clenched his fists. The courtyard that he used to live in was exquisite and luxurious. However, it was occupied by Cui Yan.
"Why? Are you still not convinced? " The strong young man, Cui Yan, came to Qin Zhi with the woman in green and sneered.
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhi's expression changed. Of course, he was not convinced. However, Cui Yan's cultivation was at Lower Level Nine and he was much stronger than him. He could not do anything even if he was not convinced.
"By the way, Qin Zhi, your courtyard is really nice. It's exquisite and warm. I've already given it to Mei 'er!" Cui Yan chuckled and put his arm around the waist of the woman in green.
"Haha … Junior Brother Qin Zhi, Mei 'er really has to thank you!" The woman in green covered her mouth and chuckled. Not only was Qin Zhi's courtyard exquisitely built, but there were also a large number of formations. It was obvious that he had put in a lot of effort to set it up.
Although the woman in green thanked him, the sarcasm in her eyes was self-evident.
"That courtyard is only temporarily lent to you. You will have to return it sooner or later!" Qin Zhi suppressed the anger in his heart and said flatly. A courtyard was nothing, but they would have to return it sooner or later.
"Junior Brother Qin Zhi is so ambitious. Why don't we have a Deity's Duel? If you win against Mei 'er, Mei' er will return the mansion to you! "The green-robed woman's eyes turned as she teased him.
The so-called Deity's Duel referred to a battle of Spiritual Soul power, which was also known as willpower, in the huge crystal.
"You …!" Qin Zhi's heart was filled with rage, but he still tried his best to suppress it. This woman's name was Hu Mei Er. Her cultivation level was the same as his, Level Eight Advanced, but her strength was a notch higher than his.
"Qin Zhi, you're too useless!"
Cui Yan said disdainfully, "If it's a competition of strength, you're naturally no match for Mei 'er. However, you don't even have the confidence to win a Deity's Duel?"
Qin Zhi's face turned green and white. He did not have many resources. If he did, he would lose. That would not be good.
Su Mo's face was calm as he watched Cui Yan and Hu Mei 'er echo each other. They were clearly doing this on purpose to win Qin Zhi's resources.
"How much?"
Qin Zhi asked Hu Mei 'er. He had decided to bet with her. He might not lose in a Deity's Duel.
"How about 500,000 Upper Dawn Stones?" Hu Mei 'er asked with a smile.
"500,000!" Hearing this, Qin Zhi's expression turned serious. This was practically all the resources he had. However, he did not hesitate for long before he nodded his head and said, "Alright, let's bet five hundred thousand Origin Stones."
Although he might lose, Qin Zhi still decided to have a Deity's Duel. Even if he lost, he would not regret it.
Moreover, if he did not have enough resources, he could go to Myriad Saints Mountain to cultivate for a period of time. Although there were many people there, the Source Liquid was pathetically little.
"Hahaha!!"
Cui Yan roared with laughter when he heard this, and his face was filled with mockery as he said, "Qin Zhi, you'll lose completely!"
"Come on!" Hu Mei 'er called out to Qin Zhi and walked toward an empty huge crystal.
Qin Zhi and Cui Yan hurriedly followed her.
Cui Yan and Hu Mei 'er only glanced at Su Mo and did not pay much attention to him.
Soon, Hu Mei 'er and Qin Zhi stood in front of the crystal and explained the wager to a member of the Divine Pavilion. Then, they placed their palms on the crystal and closed their eyes.
The battle was silent, and no one could see it. This was an invisible confrontation within the crystal.
In just two breaths of time, Qin Zhi showed signs of defeat and his face instantly turned pale.
"Trash!" Cui Yan sneered. Su Mo frowned.
Su Mo frowned. Qin Zhi was indeed too weak. However, Cui Yan was really disgusting.
Time passed by slowly. After another three breaths of time, Qin Zhi, who was originally pale, took three steps back. His face was as white as a sheet.
"Qin Zhi, you have lost!" Hu Mei 'er withdrew her palms and looked at Qin Zhi mockingly.
"Hahaha! Qin Zhi, you trash. You have lost in five breaths of time! "Cui Yan laughed and said proudly.
Cui Yan's laughter attracted many people's attention. Some people who knew Qin Zhi and Cui Yan could not help but shake their heads.
Qin Zhi had been suppressed by Cui Yan for the past few decades, and this was not the first time.
Qin Zhi's face turned from white to green, and he was so gloomy that he was about to fall out of the water. His defeat was within his expectations, but Cui Yan's insult made him furious.
"Qin Zhi, give me the 500,000 Upper Dawn Stones!" Hu Mei 'er walked to Qin Zhi's side and stretched out her fair hand.
"Here you go!" Qin Zhi immediately took out a storage ring and handed it to Hu Mei 'er.
Hu Mei 'er was satisfied with the Dawn Stones. After checking that the amount was correct, she gave the people of the Divine Pavilion a 10% commission.
"I'll leave first!"
Qin Zhi, who was in low spirits, glanced at Su Mo and strode out. He really did not want to stay here and see Cui Yan's face.
However, Qin Zhi had only taken two steps when his arm was grabbed by a strong hand.
"Junior Brother Qin Zhi, please wait!"
Su Mo pulled Qin Zhi back, then turned to Hu Mei 'er and said, "Miss, our cultivations are similar. Do you dare to fight with me?"
Su Mo had long disliked Cui Yan's face. Since Hu Mei 'er and Cui Yan were jackals of the same tribe, he wanted to defeat them both.
"You?" Hu Mei 'er sized Su Mo up. She had never seen Su Mo before, so she did not know his strength.
"Boy, are you going to stand up for Qin Zhi?" Cui Yan's eyes narrowed slightly.
