Two vs Two, Bet

Yeah, we're brothers!

No need to keep score so clearly! Lin Dong was shaken once again.

The concept of brothers sank even deeper into his heart.

My outlook was too narrow! Lin Dong thought ashamedly. Compared to him, Wu Yun practically treated him with complete sincerity.

"Let's head out!"

"I reckon the Lei and Xie Families won't let this go."

Unlike Mu Lingsha, the Lin Family and Mad Blade Martial Arts School did not need to fear them so much, so there was no need to hide.

The two returned to the enormous platform.

As soon as they arrived, Lei Li and Xie Yingying returned as well.

The couple wore livid expressions, their lips trembling with rage. The moment they saw Wu Yun and Lin Dong—especially the bulging bundles in their arms—the fury in their eyes nearly burst into flames.

Taking the Fire Python Tiger Cubs away would not be so easy... Lei Li gritted his teeth and ran to the viewing platform of the Lei and Xie Families. He shouted to Lei Bao and Xie Qian, "Grandfather, Uncle Xie, Yingying and I encountered a heavily injured Fire Python Tiger and three newborn cubs in the forest. The two of us fought it for a long time before finally wearing it to death. Who would have thought that, at the very last moment, Lin Dong and Wu Yun would launch a sneak attack and steal the three cubs? Please uphold justice for us!"

Lei Li spoke with tears streaming down his face, looking incomparably wronged! Yet everyone only caught one piece of information: "Fire Python Tiger Cubs."

A Fire Python Tiger was a Heavenly Origin Stage Demon Beast, an existence no weaker than the heads of the three great families.

The entire venue was shocked, erupting into uproar.

Lei Bao and Xie Qian sprang to their feet.

Lin Zhentian and Luo Cheng also abruptly stood, both looking toward Lin Dong and Wu Yun! "The Fire Python Tiger was already heavily injured. Does that mean whoever sees it first owns it? If that's the case, then tomorrow I'll take a stroll through the mountains. Every Demon Beast I see will be mine, and if anyone captures one afterward, they'll have to compensate me!"

Wu Yun sneered loudly. He had come prepared.

"The Fire Python Tiger Cubs weren't born to your family. They were ownerless to begin with. Whoever has the ability to obtain them owns them. If you can't win them, you run crying to your grandpa—that's the behavior of a grandson!"

His words were crude, but the reasoning was sound! After hearing him, the spectators all nodded.

"What a glib tongue. Stop trying to quibble!"

Lei Bao's gaze hardened as he shouted at Wu Yun.

At that moment, Luo Cheng naturally could not remain seated. He rose and began berating Lei Bao.

Lin Zhentian naturally stood with Luo Cheng as well, supporting Mad Blade Martial Arts School.

They confronted Lei Bao and Xie Qian!

The four great powers had split into two camps.

Both sides were at each other's throats, deadlocked without yielding.

In the end, Xie Qian proposed that since there was going to be a contest anyway, they should determine ownership of the Fire Python Tiger Cubs through a match.

Lin Dong and Wu Yun would face Lei Li and Xie Yingying in a Two vs Two match!

However, Wu Yun and Lin Dong had already obtained the Fire Python Tiger, so they naturally could not put it up as a wager so easily.

The Lei and Xie Families had to offer stakes of equal value.

The Lei Family put up Ironwood Manor as their stake!

The Xie Family put up the Silkworm Workshop! Both were important industries of the Lei and Xie Families, immensely valuable.

"What do you say? Do you agree?"

Xie Qian asked the Lin Family and Mad Blade Martial Arts School.

They still did not know Wu Yun and Lin Dong's true strength.

Lin Dong in particular had always concealed his abilities well. Coupled with Wu Yun stealing the spotlight, everyone assumed he had at most broken through to Body Tempering Layer Nine.

"Lei Li is already an Earth Yuan Stage expert, and Xie Yingying has one foot in the Earth Yuan Stage. Dong'er and Wu Yun don't have much chance of winning."

"Father, we can't agree to this!"

No one in the Lin Family thought highly of them.

On the Mad Blade Martial Arts School side, Luo Cheng did know that Wu Yun had broken through to the Earth Yuan Stage a month ago. However, he did not know Wu Yun had broken through again last night, nor did he understand Lin Dong's strength, so he was somewhat hesitant.

He directly asked Wu Yun for his opinion. "Yun'er, what do you think?"

Wu Yun said, "If Master agrees, then agree. Why turn down an Ironwood Manor and Silkworm Workshop delivered right to our door?"

Wu Yun had deliberately hidden his strength for this very moment, to take the Lei and Xie Families' industries for free.

Otherwise, if he had exposed his strength too early, how could the Lei and Xie Families possibly have dared to gamble?

"Good!"

Hearing Wu Yun's confident answer, Luo Cheng was reassured.

Lin Dong also said to the Lin Family members, "Grandfather, trust me!"

Before the witness of numerous powers, the four factions signed and sealed the Bet.

"Since everyone has agreed, let the match begin!"

The host of the assembly announced.

Lin Dong and Wu Yun took the stage to face Lei Li and Xie Yingying!

"Let's see how you dodge this time."

Lei Li snorted coldly.

Wu Yun did not bother with him at all and said to Lin Dong,

"Leave that Xie Yingying girl to you. Slap her hard!"

Lin Dong said, "Don't worry, Big Brother. This isn't the first time I've hit a woman. I won't go easy on her!"

Back at the Trading Post, Lin Dong had already beaten Xie Yingying's younger sister, Xie Ting! That time, Wu Yun had slapped Lei Li across the mouth too!

"For that slap last time, I want you to repay it tenfold today!"

"For that slap last time, I want you to repay it tenfold today!"

Lei Li and Xie Yingying spoke in unison. Wu Yun said, "Heh, as expected of a dog man and dog woman. Your coordination is pretty good."

"I'll smash your mouth!"

Lei Li went mad and attacked immediately.

He could not outargue Wu Yun.

"Thunderous Strike!"

A Third-Grade Martial Art of the Lei Family.

He chopped down with his palm, carrying the force of Thunderous Might.

Primal Force surged as he immediately revealed Earth Yuan Stage cultivation.

A flash of purple light passed through Wu Yun's eyes. He instantly drew the treasured saber at his waist and unleashed the Mad Thunder Saber to meet the blow.

This time, he did not suppress his Primal Force too much! "Earth Yuan Stage!"

"Wu Yun has entered the Earth Yuan Stage too!"

The spectators were all shocked. People had long suspected Lei Li had entered the Earth Yuan Stage, but only Luo Cheng knew about Wu Yun.

Yet the surprises were not over!

On the other side, Lin Dong, who was fighting Xie Yingying, likewise revealed Earth Yuan Stage cultivation.

"My heavens, Lin Dong is at the Earth Yuan Stage too!"

"It seems the Lei and Xie Families are truly finished this time!"

"That kid Lin Dong has hidden himself well. Even we didn't know." The Lin Family members all sighed in amazement.

To them, this was a pleasant surprise.

Lin Zhentian in particular was so excited that tears filled his aged eyes. The Lin Family had finally produced another genius.

"Don't panic. Li'er has long mastered a Fourth-Grade Martial Art. We still have a chance!" Lei Bao comforted Xie Qian beside him.

But in truth, he was panicking terribly inside.

It turned out that his Li'er was not the only genius.

The battle on the platform grew increasingly fierce.

Xie Yingying was completely suppressed by Lin Dong. Her defeat was only a matter of time.

The key to the Lei and Xie Families' hopes lay with Lei Li!

"Galloping Thunder Light!"

Lei Li finally used his trump card, a Fourth-Grade Martial Art of the Lei Family.

His right palm flashed with intense Primal Force fluctuations, gathering all his Primal Force into his palm. As Lei Li's Primal Force poured out wildly, the radiance grew stronger and stronger. In the end, it became a shrinking and expanding ball of light that churned madly in his palm.

The might of a Fourth-Grade Martial Art was terrifying. The people on the viewing platform were all shocked and began worrying for Wu Yun.

Facing Lei Li's powerful palm strike, Wu Yun remained utterly calm. He smiled faintly and gathered all his Primal Force onto his treasured saber.

"It's not only you who has a Fourth-Grade Martial Art!"

"Thunderous Slash!"

The Mad Thunder Saber swung out. Combined with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, it slashed fiercely with lightning speed.

"Bang!"

The powerful collision of Primal Force shattered the stone platform, kicking up a cloud of dust that concealed the two of them.

"How did it go? How did it go?"

"Who won?"

Everyone on the viewing platform craned their necks, trying to see clearly.

After a moment, the dust dispersed.

Only one person remained standing in the arena: a young man leaning on his saber! Lei Li, meanwhile, was kneeling before him.
