A Heavy Wager, a Tiger Breaks Free!
Yao Li's methods are too outrageous.
Killing one will seize the fortune.
Certainly.
She looked down on the luck of ordinary people.
Even so, it's still terrifying.
Like a snowball rolling downhill, it gets bigger and bigger. If it's allowed to grow up, what will become of it?
Ironically, this terrifying demoness was determined to kill him.
Chen Ning's head ached just thinking about it.
The first betting match is over.
Everyone present witnessed the formidable strength of the new disciple of the Qilin True God.
This also set a brilliant tone for the Wager of the Gods.
Next.
Disciples of the gods of the Eastern Territory would frequently appear to challenge other factions.
The stakes vary in size.
The Disciple of a God are mostly at the Late Stage of Saint Venerable realm.
Disciple of a God at the Half-God Realm.
They are all the gods' trump cards.
They'll save their matches for crucial betting games.
Otherwise.
If they go into battle early, it will allow everyone to figure out their tactics and know their strength.
This will also affect the subsequent betting games.
Over the years.
The gods have all taken in many new Disciple of a God, and they keep them hidden from view, with the aim of catching them off guard.
It keeps people guessing about its background.
It's already quite generous of them to reveal their new disciples right from the start, just like the Qilin True God.
Moreover, the stakes in the duel Yao Li and Li were not particularly high.
It can be said that the host showed leniency.
In this way...
Even the gods have to give him some face.
Certainly.
Even if they don't give them face, they still can't shake Qilin Prefecture.
Wen Aotian possessed extraordinary strength.
No one can rival him.
Over the years, countless strong challengers have ended up suffering crushing defeats.
Therefore.
No one dared to provoke the tiger.
Great Peace Prefecture has also been challenged several times.
But Mao Chunqiu refused to fight them all.
The people challenging Great Peace Prefecture were all unfamiliar faces, newly accepted disciples of the gods, so Mao Chunqiu dared not take the risk.
This greatly disappointed Qin Yan.
"Master, it's one thing for you to lose your courage, but if you keep refusing to fight, aren't you just making your disciples lose face too?"
Mao Chunqiu was also very conflicted.
A truce might seem to prevent excessive losses.
However, these few truces have required the expenditure of a considerable amount of Divine Crystal as compensation.
All together, it's almost enough for a bet.
"Master, Great Peace Prefecture is already impoverished. Those who came to challenge us, though unfamiliar faces, are certainly no match for me. The Divine Crystal you're giving away like this are going to be too much for Great Peace Prefecture to bear."
"Yes, and if they think we're weak and easy to bully, those guys who are no match for Senior Brother Qin Yan will also try to take advantage of us," another disciple chimed in.
The rules of the Wager of the Gods were that all five challenge attempts had to be used.
In other words...
Many of the less powerful Disciple of a God need to find a few easier targets to exploit.
At this time, Great Peace Prefecture continued to concede.
They've already made us easy targets in their eyes.
"Is Great Peace Prefecture really here to do charity? If there's truly no one capable of taking on the challenge, how about I lend you a few disciples?"
On the peak adjacent to Great Peace Prefecture, the Red-Haired God laughed loudly.
His words were full of humiliation.
Qin Yan clenched his fists, glanced at Mao Chunqiu again, and suddenly felt extremely humiliated.
I wish I could disappear into a crack in the ground.
He, a powerful figure ranked among the top five, was subjected to such humiliation.
Mao Chunqiu's face was also stiff as he addressed his disciples, saying, "I'm sorry you've been wronged."
"Master."
Qin Yan couldn't help but approach Mao Chunqiu, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and said, "This can't go on any longer. If every disciple of the Twenty-Four Gods comes to challenge us, Great Peace Prefecture will suffer heavy losses. You should send your disciples to fight a few matches. Only by making them fear us can we reverse this decline."
Qin Yan leaned closer and whispered, "Moreover, after my recent seclusion, my strength has improved again. I will definitely make them regret choosing my Great Peace Prefecture!"
"Alright... but remember, never underestimate your opponent, and be extra careful."
Mao Chunqiu also realized that if he continued to back down, all parties would probably treat Great Peace Prefecture as a soft persimmon to be easily manipulated, so he finally relented.
Upon hearing this...
Qin Yan's face lit up with joy.
Finally, I have a chance to make a move.
This tiger is about to be unleashed!
As luck would have it, at that very moment, a figure stepped into one of the three small battlefield realms and addressed the peak where Great Peace Prefecture was located. "I am Young Master Sword, and I wish to wager a duel with the prodigy of Great Peace Prefecture, with the stake being half of Great Peace Prefecture's territory."
This bet.
It immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
"What a huge bet!"
"The God of Architecture Mao Chunqiu only has Great Peace Prefecture as his territory. That Young Master Sword actually wants to gamble with half of Great Peace Prefecture. If he loses, he will suffer a severe blow..."
"More than that, even if we were to truce, a huge amount of Divine Crystal would still be needed as compensation."
"This Young Master Sword saw that Great Peace Prefecture was consistently refusing to fight, and by placing such a heavy bet, he's trying to squeeze a hefty sum out of them!"
Everyone looked toward the peak where Great Peace Prefecture was located.
Both were eager to see how the other would respond.
To everyone's surprise, Qin Yan flew directly to the small battlefield and coldly declared, "Fine! Great Peace Prefecture accepts! But I'm raising the stakes: I want your life!"
"Overbearing!"
Everyone felt their blood boiling.
Qin Yan, this tiger, has finally been released from its cage.
Great Peace Prefecture's constant concessions easily make people overlook Qin Yan's strength.
This person is among the top five disciples of the Eastern Territory Disciple of a God.
Not just anyone can try to scam you.
The Young Master Sword opposite them was the newly accepted disciple of Tusu Sword God the Sword Qi Continent.
Half-God Realm.
His Sword Intent was powerful and vast.
However, there was no opportunity to make a move.
I don't know the details.
Before this, he had already appeared in several rounds, challenging other factions three times, but because he was afraid of this mysterious Young Master Sword, the other factions refused to fight him.
Therefore.
Young Master Sword has yet to engage in a single battle.
"Do you think this Young Master Sword might be all show and no substance?"
"What's the meaning?"
"The Tusu Sword God deliberately created hype for him, giving the illusion that the Young Master Sword was the ace, so as to subdue him without a fight and obtain a considerable amount of Divine Crystal as compensation."
"Very likely!"
"So that means this Young Master Sword is all show and no substance, and his actual strength is not that great."
Just as everyone was excitedly discussing and speculating...
The Young Master Sword in the middle of the battlefield suddenly laughed, "Hahahaha... I've finally drawn you out!"
At the same time.
On another peak, the Tusu Sword God also revealed a smile.
Everyone else thought he was just being deliberately mysterious.
Actually, that's not the case.
Young Master Sword was his trump card.
Now.
Under intense pressure from Great Peace Prefecture, he placed a heavy bet, seemingly to force the other party to compensate him with Divine Crystal.
But that's what he really wants.
It's still half of Great Peace Prefecture's territory.
Great Peace Prefecture, this fertile land.
He's determined to have her!
Now.
Young Master Sword, amidst the battlefield, also spoke up, "You raise the stakes, I'll go with you, and I'll take your life too!"
