As soon as Jiang Gang finished speaking, the whole place burst into cheers!
Hearing the cheers, Jiang Gang's lips curled into an imperceptible smile. Once upon a time, he was also one of these students. He understood the feelings of these students. The path of cultivation was too boring, and they needed to have enough interesting things to accompany them. The Grudge Meeting was the best place to vent.
Whether it was participating in the Grudge Meeting or watching it, it would make people relax physically and mentally. This was the main reason why the Academy held the Grudge Meeting.
Jiang Gang took out a piece of paper from his chest. On it was the name list of today's Grudge Meeting duels. He had received this list yesterday. There were a total of seven duels, and the one that interested him the most was the last one.
Zhou Chengkun, Lu An.
Because he was in charge of logistics and had seen the feud between Zhou Chengkun and Lu An with his own eyes, he had a rough understanding of the feud between the two. It was said that this duel was initiated by Lu An. Zhou Chengkun did not know that Lu An was a genius with five light pillars, but he did. However, although Zhou Chengkun only had three light pillars, his family's financial resources were enough to make up for the difference between the two and even give him an advantage. This was a very interesting match.
With the list in hand, he could not decide the order based on his preferences. He could only shout, "First group, Wang Yang, Wu Chengshuang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place burst into cheers again. Accompanied by the cheers, two figures jumped down from the stands on both sides and landed directly in the middle of the field.
"Who did you bet on for this match?" Li Dongshi asked Gao Dashan nervously.
"I bet on Wu Chengshuang!" Gao Dashan quickly said, "I heard that he has the metal element of Heaven's Origin Energy, which is very effective against Wang Yang's wood element! What about you? Who did you bet on? "
"I also bet on Wu Chengshuang!" Li Dongshi was overjoyed and said, "Looks like it's a win-win for Wu Chengshuang!"
Lu An was sitting next to the two of them. After hearing their conversation, he could not help but feel puzzled and asked, "What are you two doing?"
"Betting!" Gao Dashan quickly turned to Lu An and said, "You don't know?"
"Betting?" Lu An frowned and asked, "Does the Academy allow it?"
"Yes, it's opened by the academy!" Gao Dashan said, "Originally, betting was just a private hobby of the students, but because of the deposit, a lot of things happened. From this year onwards, the academy will be in charge of it. This way, no one can cheat!"
"There's such a thing?" Lu An stared blankly for a moment before shaking his head. He didn't expect the academy to allow gambling to exist. It seemed like they really treated the academy as a society.
"What about you? Are you not going to bet? " Seeing that Lu An was silent, Li Dongshi quickly asked, "I heard that you've made a lot of money in the Hunter's Union. You can give it a try. At most, you can bet less. You won't feel bad even if you lose!"
Upon hearing this, Lu An slightly frowned. He thought for a moment and took out his purse. After buying the materials to make the Constitution-Enhancing Pill, he didn't have much money left. Looking at the few copper coins in his purse, Lu An bitterly smiled.
He was indeed poor now, and this was a good opportunity to make money.
Thinking of this, Lu An poured the last few copper coins in his purse into his hand and handed them to Gao Dashan. He said, "I only have a few left. Help me bet on the last round. I'll win."
"What?!" Gao Dashan and Li Dongshi stared blankly at Lu An. Their expressions were as if they were looking at an idiot.
"What's wrong?" Lu An couldn't help but feel speechless when he saw the look in their eyes. He asked, "Don't you think I'll win?"
"It's not that we don't think you'll win …" Gao Dashan came back to his senses and said embarrassedly, "Do you know what your odds are?"
"How much?" Lu An asked curiously.
"Three hundred!" Gao Dashan gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "An unprecedented three hundred! No one bet on you to win. They all bet on you to lose! "
Lu An was stunned when he heard this. He shook his head and laughed. Sure enough, no one was optimistic about him. However, he wasn't angry. If he was someone else, they probably wouldn't bet on him either.
"Brother Gao, Brother Li, do you want to win money?" Lu An looked at the two and asked.
Gao Dashan and Li Dongshi looked at Lu An's relaxed expression and felt strange. However, Gao Dashan still nodded and said, "Yes, who doesn't want to win money?"
"Then bet all your money on me." Lu An smiled and said softly, "If you trust me."
As soon as these words came out, the two looked at each other and felt awkward.
To be honest, they also didn't think that Lu An could win against Zhou Chengkun. Who was Zhou Chengkun? He was the young master of the Starfire Commerce Chamber of Commerce. His material and financial resources were one of the best in Starfire City. How could a poor boy compare to the entire Starfire Commerce Chamber of Commerce?
However, when the two looked at Lu An's calm expression, they didn't know why, but they actually believed in Lu An more!
"Damn it!" Gao Dashan suddenly cursed and said, "If you lose, you lose. Brother Lu, I, Gao Dashan, will believe you today!"
Li Dongshi was stunned when he saw Gao Dashan's choice. He hesitated and took a deep breath before saying with difficulty, "Then I … I'll bet all my money on you too."
When Lu An heard this, he looked at the two's expressions and couldn't help but smile and say, "Don't worry, I won't let you down."
While the three were talking, the first person for the battle was ready. Under Jiang Gang's command, the two instantly tangled together in the arena.
One was of the metal attribute and the other was of the wood attribute. This also opened Lu An's eyes. He had never seen anyone use the metal attribute's Heavenly Yuan Force before.
Sure enough, just as Gao Dashan had said, there seemed to be an obvious element counter to each other. After only a dozen or so moves, Wang Yang of the Wood Element was at a disadvantage. He was beaten back by Wu Chengshuang, as if the outcome of the battle was already decided. However, Lu An didn't know why, but he felt that something was wrong.
The person in the black fog had taught him that although it was true that the five elements reinforced and restrained each other, it wasn't absolute. Especially the Heavenly Yuan Force. The five elements reinforced and restrained each other, but it wasn't important because the five elements all came from the Heavenly Yuan Force. In a situation where the strength was equal, it depended on the form of the Heavenly Yuan Force and the Heavenly Technique. Under certain circumstances, the attribute's suppression could be completely switched. According to Gao Dashan, this challenge seemed to be initiated by Wang Yang. Could it be that this person was defeated so easily?
Just as Lu An was thinking, the battle between the two in the arena came to an end. After one move, they separated, causing the audience to exclaim.
"He won! He's going to win! "Gao Dashan was so excited that he couldn't help but shout," Looks like the first round is in the bag! "
"Yeah, yeah!" Li Dongshi was also very excited, clutching his clothes tightly.
However, at this moment, Lu An suddenly frowned.
A strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the arena. Wang Yang's hands suddenly clasped together, followed by a loud shout. Suddenly, the ground in front of him shook, and in a few short breaths, a purple Buddha statue that was taller than a person appeared!
This strange phenomenon instantly attracted the attention of everyone present. Whether it was Wang Yang or Wu Chengshuang, they were both level nine Heavenly Experts. The battle between the two of them represented the highest level of the academy!
It was obvious that Wu Chengshuang didn't know that Wang Yang had this trick up his sleeve. He panicked when he saw the purple Buddha statue. However, he wasn't someone to be trifled with. He suddenly shouted, and a golden shield appeared in front of him!
Not only that, Wu Chengshuang also held a golden spear in his right hand. Looking at the purple Buddha statue, he roared and rushed towards it!
"Ah!"
In the process of rushing forward, Wu Chengshuang's face became more and more ferocious. His aura had accumulated to the limit, and Wang Yang was not to be outdone. With a roar, he slammed his hands on the purple Buddha statue in front of him!
Rumble!
Just as Wu Chengshuang was about to reach the Buddha statue, the Buddha statue emitted an ear-piercing sound. Following that, its joints began to crack, and it actually moved!
Wu Chengshuang's eyes were startled, but they emitted an ominous glint. He rushed forward without retreating. When he reached the purple Buddha statue, he raised his spear and stabbed!
Whoosh!
The spear carried a golden light as it went straight for the purple Buddha statue's chest. Its speed was so fast that it made people wonder if the wooden Buddha statue could withstand this attack!
However, the result shocked everyone.
This purple Buddha statue, which seemed to be rusted and creaking all over, actually stretched out its large hand and grabbed the spear!
Suddenly, Wu Chengshuang couldn't move!
