Translator: 549690339
The Qiankun City Arena was particularly explosive tonight.
Already, due to the incident at Mad Demon Secret Land, a large number of people had flooded into Qiankun City. The arena, a place of this sort, was also packed.
But one piece of news set the whole place ablaze.
Some nobody from who knows where challenged the sons and daughters of the Four Sects Five Mountains. And he was unexpectedly met by the Sword Sea Sect and other sects.
Afterwards, both sides agreed to duel at the arena.
How could such an incident not stir excitement?
“Good god, I haven’t seen such a suicidal person in a long time. He dares to publicly challenge the sons and daughters of all the major powers, and he even dares to accept the challenge?”
“The last time I saw someone court death so brashly seems to have been Jiang Bai on that wanted list, right?”
“Hehe, come to think of it, this guy is even more suicidal than Jiang Bai. At least Jiang Bai is on the run, this guy is brazenly duelling with the Sword Sea Sect’s son in public, I’m afraid he’ll die horribly right there.”
In the Qiankun City Arena, the crowd was bustling, and the discussions reached the heavens.
Many people couldn’t buy tickets and were forced to squeeze in, even if they had to stand, they needed to witness this one-sided bloodbath of a battle.
It had been a long time since there was something this interesting.
The arena boss currently had a beaming smile on his face. When he heard this news, he immediately announced a hike in ticket prices.
The income from just one night could surpass the previous month’s income!
At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai had already entered the arena under the ‘escort’ of many disciples of different sects.
AnRan followed closely behind. She had been quite worried at first, but after being brainwashed by Jiang Xiaobai, she was now unafraid!
According to Jiang Xiaobai’s words, things were already like this. Apart from facing it head-on, what else could they do?
Standing in the center of the ring, and looking at the bustling scene of hundreds of thousands of people around him, Jiang Xiaobai felt extremely moved.
The scale of things in this fantasy world was indeed larger.
A single arena could accommodate so many people.
“My friend, how do you plan to battle? Is it you who will pick your opponent, or what?” Lin Yucheng looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a smile. He was quite satisfied with Jiang Xiaobai right now.
From beginning to end, the other party had not shown the slightest sign of fear. Such courage was indeed valuable.
Sadly, he liked to act cocky.
“Today might be a lesson for this young man. There must be a large power behind him, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to cultivate such a disciple. ”
Lin Yucheng secretly said to himself, “A slight lesson should be the real intention of that power as well.”
At this time, Jiang Xiaobai was also looking at the disciples of various sects power, his gaze often inadvertently swept over Lin Sien.
Lin Sien naturally could feel Jiang Xiaobai’s gaze, and her heart was stunned for a moment.
She felt that this gaze was so familiar!
Wasn’t this the same gaze that Jiang Xiaobai would reveal when he was planning to scam her out of her money?
Of course, Lin Sien would never think that Jiang Xiaobai was the person before her. She just thought that all the shameless people in the world were the same.
“What, my friend, is there anything else you want to say?” Lin Yucheng said calmly.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded with a smile on his face, “Hehe, since it’s a battle, and it’s such a grand event, how can we not have a stake?”
“Oh? What stake would you like, my friend?” Lin Yucheng’s eyebrows raised.
Lin Sien stood on the side, constantly coldly snorting, “You want a stake, do you think you have a chance of winning?”
“Don’t speak too soon.”
Jiang Xiaobai softly laughed, “How about this; one duel for twenty million top-grade spiritual stones.”
“Laughable, can you even afford that?”
At this time, a voice came, it was Jian San, the sword Sea Sect’s team leader elder.
He naturally had received the news and hurried over. When he heard Jiang Xiaobai’s outrageous demand, he became furious in an instant, “What’s with this ignorant fellow daring to negotiate terms with us?”
“Then how about adding another stipulation: no regard for life or death?” Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes.
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the field obviously became tense.
No regard for life or death?
Just how confident was this youngster?
“Just by you? You’re just looking for death, and I would only need one sword to kill you!” Li Xuanlin snorted coldly.
“I’m just asking if you agree or not. You’ve been dilly-dallying like a woman.” Jiang Xiaobai sneered in scorn.
“You’re courting death!” Li Xuanlin could no longer resist the urge to take out and kill Jiang Xiaobai.
At this moment, Jian San suddenly spoke, “Alright, since you want to play like that, I’ll accompany you, fighting no matter if it results in life or death, with twenty million top-grade spiritual stones as the stake!”
“But, do you have that much money?”
Looking at Ji San’s cold expression, Jiang Xiaobai snapped his fingers, and AnRan threw out a storage ring next to him.
Inside, there were full sixty million top-grade spiritual stones, indeed enough for three duels.
“All of you are major sects, you won’t cheat right?” Jiang Xiaobai looked at several people with a jovial smile.
“What a joke, would my Sword Sea Sect cheat you out of your money?” Li
Xuanlin coldly snorted, “I’ll be first for the match, don’t worry, I won’t kill you, I’ll torment and humiliate you properly, and then let the other two do the same!”
“I’ll make you understand that one needs the capital to be arrogant and overbearing. And you, lack this capital so you can only be trampled underfoot!”
“Oh- I’m so scared-”
Jiang Xiaobai sneered in mockery making Li Xuanlin want to directly take action.
“Alright then, since it has come to this, let the competition begin.”
Elder Hu Changleng was also taking interest in Jiang Xiaobai, this kid was somewhat interesting.
The duel was about to start.
Li Xuanlin directly jumped onto the platform, holding a shimmering silver long sword in his hand. It was a top-grade treasure sword, even carrying a bit of divine-grade aura!
The appearance of the treasure sword immediately drew numerous gasps of surprise.
Jiang Xiaobai simply ignored this, and instead waved to AnRan.
“Boss, what’s up?” AnRan leaned in, her face flushed with excitement.
“There must be people opening bets outside, my odds must be quite high. All these money, put it all down for me.” Jiang Xiaobai spoke while handing over a storage ring.
AnRan took one look and was almost her heart stopped beating.
Inside, there were a total of a hundred million top-grade spiritual stones!
“Boss, you’re crazy, there’s so many top-grade spiritual stones, nobody can afford to compensate you!” AnRan hurriedly said.
“Who’s asking you to put it all down in one place? There are definitely many bookmakers, place a bit on each, and keep doing so for the subsequent duels. Remember, your boss, definitely wins.”
After that, Jiang Xiaobai patted AnRan on the shoulder and slowly walked towards the platform.
Although AnRan was a little uneasy in her heart, in the end, she gritted her teeth: “Boss, I’ll believe you this time!”
