After walking out of the stone room, Yi Tian's expression relaxed. Now, he had completely pieced together the beast skin map in his storage pouch. With this, he could find some time to carefully study what was recorded on it.
In addition, under Supreme Fall's insistence, he reluctantly chose a set of Netherworld Flower seeds and a two-foot-long piece of black wood. Then, he exchanged it for the Flame Dragon Armor.
Speaking of which, the Netherworld Flower could be considered one of the three great flowers of the Demon Realm. However, it would take at least one or two thousand years to mature these seeds. Fortunately, with his cultivation, he could give it a try. He could even transplant it into the Spirit Realm.
As for the piece of black wood, Supreme Fall didn't know what it was. However, he couldn't see through it. He could only faintly feel that it wasn't an ordinary item. When he had the time, he would carefully examine it.
After leaving, he saw Yan Tong still waiting there. After giving him some instructions, the two of them bid farewell to Supreme Fall and headed directly to the Eastern Mountain Assembly's main venue.
During this time, Yan Tong secretly asked, "Brother Yi, did you find the treasure you wanted?"
Shaking his head, Yi Tian replied, "Let's go see if there are other places where we can find high-grade Meteoric Iron. Fellow Yan, you're familiar with this place, so I'll go with you."
Hearing this, Yan Tong nodded his head slightly in acknowledgment. The two of them then rushed all the way to the Eastern Mountain peak, where the General Battle Arena was located.
At this time, a large number of participants had gathered at the top of the mountain, ranging from Demon Infant to Spirit Severing. After Yi Tian scanned the area with his spiritual sense, he asked with interest, "Fellow Daoist Yan, are you preparing to go down and play a few rounds? I don't think there's any place here where you can find people to trade."
"Fellow Daoist Yi, there's something you don't know. The Generals Battle Arena is the most interesting part of the Eastern Mountain Assembly." Yan Tong's eyes flashed as he replied, "Many people will bet on it. The wagers range from spirit stones to precious materials. The Demon Dragon Path is only responsible for hosting the wagers and taking a cut of the profits. It's very fair.
"What if no one bets?" Yi Tian asked, puzzled.
"Don't worry. How can the organizers let such a grand event fall into an awkward silence?" Yan Tong laughed. "Someone will definitely jump out. Moreover, there are many people who are here."
"So, in order to maintain this situation, if the people of the Mo Long Dao suffer losses, wouldn't it be like using a wicker basket to draw water?" Yi Tian understood the meaning behind those words and frowned.
"The organizers only used Magic Crystal Stones to place bets, so these treasures aren't much. Besides, the Demon Dragon Path is rich, so they don't lack these things. "Their objective is to befriend cultivators who are truly powerful or possess special skills. It would be best if they could recruit them for their own use. Otherwise, they would be able to get acquainted with them. In the future, they would be able to establish a good relationship with them. This is the most powerful aspect of ascended cultivators," explained Yan Tong.
The two of them slowly walked to one side of the arena, where a pavilion dedicated to high-level cultivators had been set up long ago. Under the guidance of the guard, the two of them arrived at a private room on the third floor. Here, they could see the Battle Platform by opening the window. It could be considered the best viewing spot.
When the two of them sat down, the door was pushed open and a Yuanying Succubus entered. She bowed three times to Yan Tong and Yan Tong before standing to the side to wait on them.
Yi Tian didn't know what was going on, so he used his divine sense to scan the area. Yan Tong's voice entered his ears, "This is the maid in charge of receiving guests. When the Battle Platform below begins, a message will be sent. When the time comes, Brother Yi can choose to place bets or bet with others. In addition, you only need to give the bets to the maid. There is no need for you to personally appear. "
"If there is a problem with the sole proprietor, won't the organizers be under a lot of pressure?" Yi Tian pointed out.
"Of course. However, Mo Long Dao has a group of appraisers present who can be responsible for the appraisal. With a third party as a witness, the difficulty of trying to take advantage of the situation has increased greatly," Yan Tong replied. "However, this can also prevent the cultivators who are betting from directly going against each other. For Mo Long Dao, spending a bit of manpower and material resources to avoid disputes and gain the trust of others, why not?"
From the looks of it, the Devil Dragon Path's leader's goal was not small. They had set up a battle array in the Devil Realm not only to make friends, but also to display their strength. It was likely that in a few thousand years, the Devil Realm would have another force.
However, when he thought about it, this had nothing to do with him. He was only looking for materials. As long as he didn't attract too much attention, he wouldn't be targeted.
After a while, he heard Yan Tong say, "Let me see the list of today's matches and the bets." The Succubus maid behind him hastily took out two jade slips that she had already prepared and handed them over.
Yi Tian took the jade slips and opened them in his hand. His gaze swept over them. The information written on them was very detailed, indicating the names of the participants and their strength. There was also a detailed analysis at the back, giving a brief description of the races and abilities of the Devil Cultivators.
Every match had two bets, big and small. This should be what the cultivators were most concerned about. The big bets were set up by the Devil Dragon Path to bet on Devil Crystal Stones, but they could only bet on the match that was about to take place.
As for the small bets, they were set up by Severed Soul Stage cultivators to bet on rare treasures, high-grade Devil Tools, or pills.
Next to the small bets, there was a column marked with the Eastern Mountain Association's commission. Of course, it was based on two times the amount of the bets.
After looking at it, Yi Tian's eyelids couldn't help but tremble. This one percent didn't seem like much, but there were hundreds of small bets. Calculating it, this one percent was more than eighty percent of the big bets' income.
The small bets that had turned grey were no longer accepting bets. Only the bets that were still lit were still open.
Yan Tong was very familiar with this and immediately marked the bets on the jade slips. Then he took out a storage pouch and placed a few pills into it before handing it over to the maid behind him.
After the Succubus left, she returned with a jade slip in her hand and handed it over to Yan Tong. Yi Tian scanned it with his Divine Sense and found out that the jade slip was proof of this bet. Once the results of the matches in the arena were decided, he could use it to get back his winnings.
Yi Tian turned his head back and continued to check, but he didn't find the treasure he wanted. After telling Yan Tong about this situation, the latter suggested that he should wait for a while, or open up another bet to indicate the treasure he wanted to bet.
After thinking about it, Yi Tian decided to wait and see. After all, he didn't know much about the participants. If he placed a large bet on someone he didn't know, it would be easy to draw water with a bamboo basket. Moreover, there might be a lot of people among them.
