Tenfold Odds—I Can Create a Draw!

As the Dark Gold Wolf crashed to the ground, the cheers inside the Beast Fighting Arena came to an abrupt halt.

A brief silence fell over the venue before the Host's voice broke it:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe you have all seen that both Exotic Beasts in this match have died. According to the rules, the result of this match is—a draw!"

"Damn it! You did that on purpose, didn't you?"

"That's shameless."

"I bet they planned it from the start, deliberately arranging a poisonous worm against a highly aggressive wolf. They clearly wanted them to kill each other!"

The people who had been celebrating joyfully moments ago were now cursing louder than anyone else.

Meanwhile, those who had bet on the Giant Luo Worm actually laughed.

Since it was a draw, everyone who had placed a bet lost everything. It was better for everyone to lose together than to be the only one losing.

"What a pity." Hong Tiejun could not help smacking his fist into his palm. "If we had bet on a draw, we'd have made a fortune!"

Lu Feng was somewhat surprised. "You can bet on a draw too?"

"Of course. Draws have the highest odds. A hundred thousand can become a million if you win."

"Tenfold?"

"That's right. But the chances of a draw are just too low. Almost nobody bets on it."

Only then did Lu Feng understand.

Precisely because hardly anyone bet on draws, the Beast Fighting Arena could occasionally manipulate the outcome like this and make a killing.

"How about we both bet on a draw for the third match?"

Hong Tiejun froze after Lu Feng said that. "Are you confident?"

He understood what Lu Feng meant. Lu Feng intended to use his ability to control the course of the next fight.

"Let's give it a try."

Although Lu Feng could make Exotic Beasts switch between frenzy and docility, he did not dare claim he was completely certain.

After all, victory and defeat were often decided in an instant.

The Exotic Beast corpses and bloodstains on the arena were quickly cleaned away by the venue Staff.

The third match began shortly afterward.

The size difference between the two newly introduced Exotic Beasts was enormous.

One was a Giant Beast over five meters tall, shaped like a rhinoceros. Its hide was thick as armor, and its defenses were extremely strong;

The other was only a little over a meter tall, a bird-like Exotic Beast resembling an ostrich.

Most strangely, the bird had two heads—they shared one body, their necks branching like tree limbs, each extending into a separate head.

"These two Exotic Beasts are the Golden Armored Shield Beast from Tingyun Star and the Two-headed Crane from Hemedo Star. Both are Third-Tier Peak Exotic Beasts. Please assess their strengths and place your bets accordingly."

As soon as the Host finished speaking, murmurs rose from the audience.

Nearly everyone was focused on whether the Two-headed Crane could break through the Golden Armored Shield Beast's astonishing defenses.

Quite a few Warriors knew about the Golden Armored Shield Beast. Its hide was more than twenty centimeters thick, its muscles were highly developed, and its defenses were formidable. Its weaknesses were its poor offense and clumsy movements.

As for the Two-headed Crane, almost no one had ever seen one. It was clearly another new species captured by the military from some unfamiliar planet.

"Lu Feng, should we place a bet?"

"I've already picked one. You pay."

Before Hong Tiejun could finish, Lu Feng had already handed him the betting device. Its screen displayed: "Bet on Draw, Awaiting Payment."

"You really want to bet on a draw?" Hong Tiejun was still hesitant.

The minimum single bet was one hundred thousand. If both of them bet, that would be two hundred thousand.

They had come to the Beast Fighting Arena today at Hong Kun's instruction.

The purpose was to test whether Lu Feng could truly tame every Exotic Beast.

But the betting money was Hong Tiejun's own spending money.

If he really lost it, he would not be going anywhere this summer vacation.

After hesitating for a long time, Hong Tiejun only paid for Lu Feng's betting device.

Even after the two-minute betting period ended, he still could not bear to place a bet on his own device.

On the arena, the Beast Fighting Arena's Warriors had already finished injecting both Exotic Beasts with Berserk Potion.

However, the same bizarre scene from before played out again.

Both Exotic Beasts lay motionless on the ground, staring toward the middle rows of seats to the north.

The Beast Fighting Arena Staff simply could not understand what was wrong with the Exotic Beasts today. Why did they keep falling into this sluggish state?

Another wave of dissatisfied boos and complaints rose from the stands.

With no other choice, the Staff could only return to the arena and inject them with several more doses.

Lu Feng gripped the armrest tightly with one hand and braced himself against his knees with the other. Beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead.

Although the Mark on his chest had already accumulated enough energy, the burning pain would persist as long as he kept looking at the Exotic Beasts.

And this time, the pain was several times worse than before.

Is this the impact brought by Third-Tier Peak Exotic Beasts? he thought as his entire body began Trembling Violently from the agony.

"Y-you... are you okay? Can you still Hold On?" Hong Tiejun hurriedly reached out to support him.

Lu Feng looked terrifying at that moment, as though he would pass out from the pain the Next Second.

Just as he was nearly at his limit, Lu Feng suddenly turned his head away, squeezed his eyes shut, and stopped looking at the arena.

The intense pain that had nearly made him faint disappeared at once.

The instant he closed his eyes, both Exotic Beasts instantly fell into a frenzy.

The originally clumsy and gentle Golden Armored Shield Beast's eyes turned crimson as it charged fiercely at the Two-headed Crane in front of it.

Its body stood over five meters tall and weighed more than ten tons. As it ran, the entire venue rumbled and shook.

Just as everyone thought the Two-headed Crane would be killed in a single blow, the large bird suddenly darted sideways and nimbly avoided the charge.

Even more astonishingly, as it evaded, its two heads attacked at the same time. Two sharp beaks over thirty centimeters long shot out like Sharp Blades, instantly piercing the Golden Armored Shield Beast's abdomen.

Blood immediately gushed out. The Golden Armored Shield Beast's thick hide had been pierced clean through.

An uproar erupted from the stands as the spectators widened their eyes:

"No way! Its defenses were broken that easily?"

"Wasn't the Golden Armored Shield Beast famous for its strong defense?"

"What kind of bird is that?"

Everyone seemed to realize that while the Golden Armored Shield Beast possessed incredible defenses, the Two-headed Crane's long beaks had astonishing destructive power, as though they were its natural bane.

At that moment, the Host below the arena actually picked up a microphone and began providing live commentary:

"What an unexpected turn! The Two-headed Crane's attacks are so fierce that it can easily pierce the Golden Armored Shield Beast's defenses. Those who bet on the Shield Beast had better be careful."

"Look! The Two-headed Crane has nimbly dodged another charge and left two more bloody holes in the Shield Beast's abdomen!"

"My God, it's so agile—it actually jumped onto the Golden Armored Shield Beast's back!"

"Not good! The Golden Armored Shield Beast's eyes have been pecked! Victory in this match will likely belong to this two-headed bird from another planet."

"Wait, what is it trying to do? The Two-headed Crane has jumped down from the Shield Beast's back... It seems the blinded Shield Beast can no longer pose much of a threat. It intends to launch its final attack!"

"Everyone, watch closely! The Two-headed Crane is repeatedly pecking at the Golden Armored Shield Beast's throat with its long beaks!"

As the Host continued his commentary, the curses below grew louder and louder. Everyone had realized—they had been tricked by the Beast Fighting Arena again.

More than half the audience had bet on the Golden Armored Shield Beast to win, but this Colossal Beast could not even touch the agile Two-headed Crane.

This was clearly a battle of the small overcoming the large, skill defeating strength.

"It's over! The Golden Armored Shield Beast's throat has been pierced..."
