Chapter 20: A Shocking Reversal
There were bursts of booing sounds from all around, if Liu Wu Xie refused, countless mouths would be able to drown him.
"It's not impossible for me to agree to bet with you, there are some problems with this bet."
Liu Wu Xie revealed a playful smile, more gold coins were useless, he now needed spirit stones in order to accelerate his cultivation, and after his heart vein was repaired, he would be able to break through the innate realm.
"Mr. Liu might as well bring it up, I can modify it."
Wan Zhuo Ran needed Liu Wu Xie to participate, as for how much the bet was, he really didn't care, their Wan family didn't have much else, the gold coins piled up into mountains.
"Exchange the gold coins for spirit stones, according to the market price, one hundred thousand gold coins for one spirit stone, ten million gold coins for one hundred spirit stones."
As soon as the words fell, everyone stared at Liu Wu Xie as if they were looking at an idiot.
"Brother, what do you need spirit stones for, it's not like you can cultivate."
After Songling finished speaking, he knew that he said it wrong and hurriedly slapped himself, not revealing his shortcomings in public, hitting people without hitting their faces, Liu WuXie didn't care, Songling was the kind of heartless living treasure.
"You want spirit stones?"
Wan Zhuo Ran frowned, the Imperial Academy only sends him five spirit stones every month to cultivate, more than a year, but accumulated more than three dozen only, a moment can not come up with a hundred.
"Can't get it out?"
Faint mocking sound, can not take out the spirit stone, no qualification to bet with him, a sudden flip, the initiative fell into the hands of Liu Wu Xie again, I promise to bet with you, first you have to take out the bet I want.
The two of you back and forth, Wan Zhuo Ran's forced bet, so that Liu Wu Xie had to agree, put forward the spirit stone as a bet, very skillful, you bet or not.
"Rubbish, there is no need for you to make up such an absurd reason for refusing to bet, right, don't dare to bet directly and explicitly."
Tian Ye Quan let out a cold laugh, causing many people to chime in, a sneer that fell on Liu Wu Xie from all over the sky.
"Brother Zhuo Ran, it just so happens that I still have some spirit stones on me, you can take them first, and when the match is over, just return them to me."
Xue Yu took down the storage pouch at his waist and poured it onto the table, seventy to eighty pieces of spirit stones fell down sparingly, and together with the thirty or so pieces on Wan Zhuoran, it already exceeded one hundred.
One hundred spirit stones piled up on the table, releasing a shocking spiritual qi, those people sitting around, took a sharp breath, their bodies were soothed.
"Mr. Liu, can we start now!"
Not wanting to wait a moment, when the end of this one, this waste, can completely roll out of Canglan City, with his fame and prestige, the probability of chasing Xu Lingxue is very high.
"Start!"
Without waiting for Xu Ling Xue to speak, Liu Wu Xie impatiently waved his hand, he also wanted to end the Hundred Demons Meeting early and take the spirit stones to go back to cultivate.
Two demonic beasts were prostrate on the ring, two beast tamers guarding the side, and the beast fight was about to begin.
The Iron Centipede versus the Bloodstriped Lion.
Peak first rank demonic beasts, on the same level as a human Houtian Nine, a collision would surely be a stone-cold shock.
"Brother Liu first!"
Letting Liu Wu Xie place his bet first drew a chorus of hoots and hollers, Wan Zhuoran's status was very high, and Liu Wu Xie formed a world of difference compared to him.
One was the proud son of heaven, like the white moon in the sky, and the other was the famous trash of Canglan City, like a mole cricket under the ground.
"I don't have this habit, it's better for you to choose first."
Just like the same, three great bets, Liu Wu Xie gave his opponent the chance to choose first, winning the respect of many people, losing this one, though losing, he was still honored.
"I'll be polite then, I'll bet on the Bloodstripe Lion."
Wan Zhuo Ran was also not polite and chose the Bloodstripe Lion to win, Liu Wu Xie had no choice, the Iron Centipede was good at defense, the Bloodstripe Lion was good at attack, another spear and shield fight.
"Brother, are you sure? I want to earn some pocket money."
Song Ling gently poked Liu Wu Xie, foolishly wanting to follow along and gamble.
Blankly glancing at him, Song Ling received an answer and quickly ran out.
"Take out all the gold coins you have on you." After a scavenging, more than a million gold coins were recovered from everyone in the Song family, a very sizable amount.
The more than a million gold coins that were searched, all of them were bet on the Iron Centipede to win, the odds were one to three, and they would get three million gold coins if they won.
Beast fighting soon began, both demonic beasts belonged to the power type, the Bloodline Lion was slightly larger, the Iron Centipede had dozens of legs, its mouth could spray an extremely corrosive venom, and with its hard iron armor, ordinary weapons couldn't break it open.
The Bloodstained Lion is one zhang tall, spraying white mist from its mouth, its four calves are as thick as an adult's thigh, thick and powerful, trampling on the verdant stone ground, emitting a dull thud sound.
The beast tamer blew the whistle in his mouth, and the two demonic beasts roared and pounced.
At once!
All sorts of biting and crashing noises rose and fell, forming powerful air waves that surged in all directions.
The battle of the demonic beasts was extremely tragic and bloody, and in a single glance, the ring was streaked with blood, and on the small abdomen of the Bloodstripe Lion, a slit was cut open by the Iron Centipede.
Everyone held their breath, every collision, the ground was shaking, some timid people, simply closed their eyes, did not dare to look down.
Songling's eyes were dead set on the Iron Centipede, "Attack, attack quickly, kill the Bloodstained Lion."
Many more blood marks appeared on the Iron Centipede's back, which were left by the claws of the Bloodstripe Lion, dripping with blood, it didn't tear apart the defense, but it enraged the Iron Centipede, opening its fangs and bullying its way up.
There were only two people in the entire scene, with a breezy face, one was Liu Wu Xie, and the other was Wan Zhuo Ran.
"Rumble!"
The Bloodstripe Lion seized an opportunity and ruthlessly stepped on the Iron Centipede's back, its bloody mouth bit down and tore off a large piece of scale armor, blood sprayed wildly, and the Iron Centipede let out a mournful scream.
The Iron Centipede was scared, its body backed up, not daring to face the Bloodstripe Lion.
Tearing off the scales, the next battle was even more unfavorable to the Iron Centipede, the Bloodstripe Lion pressed on step by step, winning.
The same is a peak first stage demonic beast, the speed or strength of the Bloodline Lion is far higher than the Iron Centipede, there should not be much suspense in this fight.
"Brother, quickly think of a way!"
Songling was nervous and grabbed Liu Wu Xie's arm, telling him to think of a way.
"Look at this bit of talent of yours."
Despising him, he had to honestly sit down and continue watching.
The Bloodline Lion gained momentum and did not spare the demon, its body suddenly rose up in the air, its horrifyingly huge mouth, releasing a monstrous ferocious aura, like a gigantic beast of the ancient world, this was a behemoth that was about to awaken a second-order demonic beast.
The Iron Centipede's size was not in the same class compared to it, and it had already shrunk to the edge of the ring.
Success or failure was at stake!
At this moment, the corner of Liu Wu Xie's mouth moved slightly, and if one were to hear it, it wasn't human language, but a strange written symbol that formed a straight line and rushed towards the ring.
The Iron Centipede's mind was very low, losing its fighting power, and after the bizarre symbol entered its body, its eyes revealed a hint of scarlet.
Demon race language!
The True Martial Continent's people who knew the language of the demon race were extremely rare, Liu Wu Xie had learned it from the Beast Harnessing Zhai Patriarch, and he didn't expect that it would come in handy, every demonic beast had a death point, and the same could also stimulate their potential.
The Bloodstripe Lion was getting closer and closer, it had already pushed its way to the front, and the Iron Centipede could not avoid it.
The huge demon body, pressed down in the air, the Iron Centipede lost its last chance, the disciples of the Wan Family began to celebrate, losing a million and a half gold coins, winning this one back, it was enough, the Xu Family's flunky, get out of Canglan City from now on.
Many people looked at Liu Wu Xie with gloating expressions, losing the Xu family as a dependency, this punk won't live to see tomorrow.
The situation was precarious, Song Ling's eyes were glaring out, hoping for a miracle.
Wan Zhuo Ran and Xue Yu both talked and laughed, the fight in the ring couldn't attract their interest, they were Advanced Innate Spirits, the fight of a first-order demonic beast was the same as a child's playground for them.
"Is the fight going to end?"
This time, many people chose to join Liu Wu Xie and buy the Iron Centipede to win, the two flips in front of them won a lot of popularity.
Under the gaze of countless gazes, the iron claws of the Bloodstripe Lion were about to land on the Iron Centipede's body.
And right at this moment, the Iron Centipede's body suddenly curled together, forming an iron ball that rolled on the ground with a rumbling sound, the Bloodstained Lion swooped down, and the lapis lazuli on the edge of the ring was shattered into several pieces.
"How could this happen!"
Wan Zhuo Ran's eyes shrunk, he knew the Iron Centipede's combat power very well, it would definitely lose, even if Liu Wu Xie chose the Bloodstained Lion, he still had a way to make the Bloodstained Lion lose the match.
The scene in front of him made him a little puzzled, the Iron Centipede seems to have changed, as to where it has changed, he can't say.
The Iron Centipede didn't die, stimulating the Bloodstripe Lion to let out a harsh whistle that shook countless people's eardrums, forming waves of air that blew the flags hanging in the air around them to emit a grunting sound.
A suffocating demonic aura swept across the entire ring.
The body raced and swooped down, wanting to crush the Iron Centipede underneath its body and ruthlessly rub it to pieces.
When it was too late, after the Iron Centipede transformed into a ball of iron, it emitted a dripping rotation, with a strangely fast speed, like a flash of meteor, disappearing in place.
"Ka-ching!"
The iron ball ruthlessly hit the right front hoof of the Bloodstripe Lion, emitting a crisp click, the right front hoof of the Bloodstripe Lion was broken, and its body shook.
"Hiss ......"
Wan Zhuo Ran sucked in a mouthful of cool air, the sudden scene caught him a little off guard, the Iron Centipede had become so powerful, what kind of attack was this, shrinking into a ball, it was practically invulnerable to swords and spears.
The Bloodstripe Lion ate the pain and let out an angry roar, limping and rushing towards the Iron Centipede, leaving a long trail of blood on the ground.
Xue Yu's eyes shrunk, his gaze looked towards Liu Wu Xie, he did not get the answer he wanted, Liu Wu Xie's eyes watched his nose and heart, he was completely unaware of what was going on in the colosseum, like an old monk who had entered into meditation.
The Iron Centipede was still crashing, every time it rushed towards the Bloodstripe Lion, it would leave a wound, and the Bloodstripe Lion's fighting strength, continued to decline.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could the Bloodstripe Lion lose."
Wan Zhuo Ran was in a rage, he couldn't lose, one hundred spirit stones, he couldn't afford to lose, even if he was a cadet of the Imperial Academy, what he got every month was only five spirit stones.
Ten million gold coins, the Wan family might not be able to breathe for ten years.
His eyes flashed out a hint of grimness, his right hand made a bizarre movement, the beast tamer below the ring got the command, a bizarre red elixir, flew out in the air.
