Gambling Battle Space: Start Picking Up Money! (4k)

Looking at the introduction in the Gambling Battle Space hall, Yang Yu felt that this place was simply made for him.

Seeing the information about the Planetary Level battles, there wasn't much information about the betting battles because the level was too low. However, since it was Gambling Battle Platform within the Ganwu Universe Country, quite a few people were placing bets. Many people whose level was not high to begin with were also willing to watch this level of competition to see if it could have any impact on them.

After all, even the lowest-ranking participants are all powerhouses who have reached the Nine-Star Rating in their respective star domain Battle Arena, and watching such powerful battles is quite inspiring.

Besides these, the most popular are the Universe Level and Domain Lord Level betting battles, while the World Lord Level betting battles are relatively few. After all, once you've cultivated to the World Lord level, the returns from Gambling Battle Space are no longer cost-effective; it's not as profitable as exploring Universe Secret Region.

Secondly, there are Star Level gambling battles. The number of Star Level life forms in the Ganwu Universe Country is extremely large, numbering in the billions, so naturally, gambling battles at this level are also extremely popular.

Even Planetary Level -level battles against Star Level opponents are quite exciting, but the prerequisites are extremely demanding.

After reading through everything, Yang Yu had a general understanding of the place.

"Come on, Babata, let's register. Let's make a good profit today before logging off." Yang Yu walked towards the registration desk in the lobby.

"Hello, I would like to register as Gladiator on the Ganwu Gambling Platform," Yang Yu said to the staff member in front of him.

"Okay, sir. Please fill out this form, upload your detailed personal information, and then pay the registration fee of 100 Ganwu Dollar." The staff member, a sweet-looking girl, said gently.

After uploading the completed form and paying the registration fee, Yang Yu immediately submitted a betting application to the platform through Babata.

Since this is Yang Yu's first duel, he can only duel within the same level. Only after winning this battle can he challenge opponents of a higher level within the Planetary Level. Only after achieving a hundred consecutive wins can he challenge opponents of a higher level, such as the Star Level.

The organizers have set this rule in order to improve the efficiency of the betting competition, while also increasing its balance and competitiveness.

Although the amount of money Planetary Level is relatively small, Yang Yu currently only has 100,000 Ganwu Dollar that he has obtained through the special platform.

It's not that he doesn't want to exchange more, but exchanging through unofficial channels is too unprofitable. Yang Yu plans to use these 100,000 Ganwu Dollar to earn enough money!

So Yang Yu randomly sent a challenge to a Planetary Level 4 gambler, with the challenge amount being two thousand Ganwu Dollar.

This betting match was a closed betting match; the other side did not agree to broadcast it live, so outsiders could not see it or place bets.

They were teleported to the Gambling Battle Space, a platform thirty kilometers long and wide.

Yang Yu and the bettor were ten kilometers apart.

The weapon selection here is similar to that in the Battle Arena; you can choose most weapons freely, but you can only choose battle suits that are the same level as yourself.

Meanwhile, the faces of the bettors will be automatically and digitally obscured by the system to protect the privacy of both parties.

"Planetary Level 4, 0 wins?" the bettor said curiously. "You really can encounter all kinds of opponents here. Since you're so eager to give me money, I'll gladly accept it."

The gambler, codenamed "God of Slaughter," grinned maliciously as he drew his War Blade and charged at Yang Yu at incredible speed.

Seeing that the opponent's Martial Way Realm was decent, having reached the Conception Level, and that his Blade Technique and Movement Technique were also quite good, Yang Yu decided to test his newly perfected Thunder Blade Technique on him.

At the same time, in order to save time, Yang Yu directly swung the Thunder Blade, and a lightning blade of light condensed to its extreme struck directly at the 'God of Slaughter'.

The speed is terrifying!

This formidable gambler, codenamed "God of Slaughter," was instantly killed before he could even react!

"Lightning wins!"

A cold, electronic voice rang out above the arena, announcing the winner of the betting match.

Lightning was also the code name Yang Yu gave himself.

Back in the Gambling Arena, Yang Yu saw that his bank account had indeed received an extra 3,800 Ganwu Dollar. Of these, 2,000 were his, 1,800 were his opponents', and the remaining 200 were the platform's 10% commission.

"Eighteen hundred thousand Ganwu Dollar, which is one million eight hundred thousand Black Dragon Dollar, not bad." After all, the battle lasted less than a second, so this kind of gain is not bad.

"Babata, let's continue the duel!"

Next, Yang Yu began to challenge gamblers of Planetary Level 1 to 9, with bets ranging from one thousand to ten thousand Ganwu Dollar.

Unsurprisingly, Yang Yu won all the matches, achieving an astonishing 100-game winning streak!

The amount of Ganwu Dollar the bank account had reached 220,000, which of course included Yang Yu's initial investment of 100,000.

"Haha, with your skills, Yang Yu, you're practically raking in the money here." Babata exclaimed, seeing that Yang Yu had won 120,000 Ganwu Dollar in less than an hour.

"This is just the beginning. I've achieved a 100-win streak. Can I start challenging opponents of higher levels now?"

"Okay, that's fine. Once you achieve a 100-win streak or complete 500 betting matches with a win rate of over 90%, the platform will assume you have the ability to fight opponents of a higher level. This will allow you to challenge opponents one level above you. This is to prevent those who are not strong enough from trying to challenge opponents of a higher level, thus lowering the quality of the betting matches and wasting the time of the spectators," Babata said.

"Alright, now select Star Level 4 gambler for me!"

Yang Yu said calmly.

In order to make each high-stakes betting match entertaining, the Gambling Arena has certain requirements for the records of both sides.

For example, the Star Level 4 Martial Artist Yang Yu is currently matched with is the kind of gambler with a win rate of less than 50%. Overall, the win rates of the two will not differ too much.

At the Star Level, the stakes increase significantly, with each game's minimum bet generally exceeding 30,000 Ganwu Dollar. If live betting is enabled, the prize pool can accumulate to an astonishing level.

After all, it is the largest Gambling Battle Platform in the entire Ganwu Universe Country. The flow of people here is extremely exaggerated. Even though there are many gambling platforms, each Star Level Gambling Arena can get a lot of viewers. In addition to watching the game, these viewers usually place bets.

Just like the match Yang Yu was matched with, his opponent was a Star Level 4 Martial Artist named 'Sweeping Army'. The bet was 30,000 Ganwu Dollar. After both parties agreed, the prize pool on the live-streaming platform was constantly rising, and the odds for the two players were also constantly changing.

After paying the same amount of Ganwu Dollar, Yang Yu was teleported to the Gambling Battle Space.

This betting arena is on the sea, but the arena is much larger than that of Planetary Level, with a length and width of fifty kilometers.

"You dare to challenge me at the Planetary Level 4? Obviously, your win rate or winning streak is very high, but you're still practically throwing money away. Today I'll show you that it's not so easy to beat someone of a higher level! I've just suffered three consecutive losses, so I'll use you as my first target." The man opposite him was a burly man with four arms, each arm holding a War Blade, and he looked quite imposing.

Unfortunately, his record was clearly not very good.

The betting battles are broadcast live. Before each fight, a transparent protective wall will appear in the center of the arena for five minutes to prevent the two sides from starting the fight prematurely.

These five minutes also give spectators enough time to analyze and place bets.

As soon as the betting options appeared, a large number of onlookers poured into the Gambling Battle Space, and the amount of bets kept rising.

Previously, because the battles were at the Planetary Level, Yang Yu hadn't agreed to start a live stream, since even if he did, there would be very few viewers, and he wouldn't earn much from the prize pool.

But Star Level ones are different; at a glance, they attract no fewer than a million viewers!

And the number is still increasing.

It can only be said that the Gambling Battle Platform covering the entire Ganwu Universe Country has a large population base; even a Ping Ping ordinary high-level gambling match attracted so many people to watch and place bets.

Actually, Yang Yu was mistaken.

It's rare for a high-stakes betting tournament to meet all the requirements.

After all, a 100-game winning streak and a 90% or higher win rate in 500 matches are both extremely demanding conditions.

Because both sides in the battle are powerful individuals who have achieved Nine-Star Rating, even though this Gambling Battle Platform covers the entire Ganwu Universe Country, there are very few such cross-level gambling battles at the same time.

The number of people it attracts will naturally be much larger than that of a typical Star Level gambling war.

While waiting, Yang Yu had Babata place a bet of 190,000 Ganwu Dollar on him to win.

Five minutes later.

Bets are now closed.

Yang Yu glanced at it briefly.

Sure enough, my odds reached an astonishing 1:100!

The opponent's score was an extremely low 1:1.06.

The prize pool has accumulated to over 1 billion Ganwu Dollar!

This is a normal phenomenon for someone of my Planetary Level 4 to fight against Star Level 4.

After all, it was a huge leap in level, and most people didn't believe Yang Yu could win. After all, even if his opponent was weak, he still had Nine-Star Rating, so it was unlikely that he couldn't beat someone who was a whole level below him.

That's why the odds are so outrageous.

Yang Yu glanced at the number of spectators. On average, each spectator bet about a thousand Ganwu Dollar. So, the billion Ganwu Dollar in the prize pool didn't seem too outrageous.

This also means that as long as Yang Yu wins this battle, he will receive 1% of the prize pool, which is a full ten million Ganwu Dollar, or ten billion Black Dragon Dollar!

That's quite impressive.

If you keep winning by adding your initial capital, bets, and prize pool splits, it won't take many games before you can win the whole Earth!

Of course, this requires maintaining a winning streak.

This level of difficulty is less likely for an ordinary Planetary Level Martial Artist than the probability of directly earning enough money to buy the Earth.

Although a very small number of people were willing to bet on Yang Yu to be a dark horse, resulting in odds that weren't too outrageous, such people were still a minority, and the vast majority of people were not optimistic about Yang Yu.

The person who fought Yang Yu also thought so.

"Kid, if you win this round, you'll win back everything you lost before. Thank you so much! In return, I'll let you die!"

As they spoke, the four burly men with four arms brandished four War Blades and launched a rapid attack on Yang Yu.

Yang Yu merely smiled faintly, then activated his Thunder Body Technique and charged straight at his opponent.

Look how fast he is!

"Damn it! This kid is only at the Planetary Level, how come he's faster than me? Am I going to suffer another defeat?" A hint of regret suddenly flashed through the mind of the man named 'Sweeping Army'.

He just bet all the money he had on himself that he would win.

If we lose, we'll lose everything!

The onlookers had a bad feeling when they saw this, as it seemed that this kid, who was only at the Planetary Level, was indeed unusually strong.

Those who bet on Yang Yu to win jumped up with joy. If Yang Yu really won, their 100-fold return would be their biggest gain of the day.

Amidst great anticipation.

Yang Yu's figure transformed into a bolt of lightning, directly passing by his opponent. With a dazzling Purple Blade Light, the opponent's head flew off!

"Lightning wins!"

A cold, electronic voice announced Yang Yu's victory.

"Phew! That was a clean win! If we hadn't known the battle information, I would have thought the one who died instantly was Planetary Level. But that's the charm of gambling; you never know what will happen next!" A man nearly ten meters tall with bulging muscles exclaimed excitedly.

"Yeah, it's unbelievable! Planetary Level instantly defeated Star Level, and with odds of a hundred times! Damn, you actually won! You'll have to treat us to a meal later," said a man of similar height and build.

"Haha, no problem, I'll treat you to dinner!" the giant man said generously. Although he had only bet 10,000 Ganwu Dollar on Yang Yu, with a 100x payout, he had directly pocketed 1 million Ganwu Dollar!

Although he comes from a decent family, this amount of money is still half a year's allowance for him.

At this moment, there were several others similar to this lucky giant man; they were all betting that Yang Yu would win.

As expected, Yang Yu's performance earned them the biggest bet of the day.

"Haha, this gambling war makes money so fast! With the prize pool split, we have over 29 million Ganwu Dollar in our accounts!" Babata was overjoyed.

The feeling of one's net worth increasing a hundredfold in an instant is exhilarating. Even the Sentient AI Babata felt incredibly excited and couldn't wait to place another bet immediately.

However, Yang Yu remained completely unmoved, as the opponents he simulated in the Killing Field were far stronger than these.

"Continue to challenge those above your level!"

"Alright!" Babata quickly searched for a suitable opponent. "Got it, this is a Star Level 5 opponent, the highest level you can challenge right now."

"He accepted the challenge!" Babata exclaimed excitedly, waving his little hand.

Swish!

As soon as the other party accepted, Yang Yu was instantly teleported to the gambling arena.

The battle took place on a desolate planet, with a massive gambling arena stretching across its surface, and a biting wind blowing incessantly.

"Planetary Level 4 with a 101-win streak, interesting. But your winning streak ends here. I'll accept the money you've brought." The opponent was a black-clad man who resembled Yang Yu in both height and appearance. His codename was 'Night Blade,' Star Level 5 Spirit Reader, but his record was much better than his previous opponents.

100 wins, 20 losses!

With a win rate exceeding 80%, this indicates that the opponent's strength is quite formidable even among Star Level.

The stakes for this match were 100,000 Ganwu Dollar, and the opposing team also started live betting.

"That's what our previous opponent said too, and it seems he's already lost badly," Yang Yu said calmly.

"Haha, I'm not one of those trash. You'll soon realize that betting against me across a whole level was the worst decision you made today!" Night Blade, the man in black, sneered.

"I'll give you that same advice too; I hope you can hold on a little longer later," Yang Yu said calmly, completely unconcerned about the other person's attitude.

"Heh, you've got guts. I'll take care of you cleanly and efficiently later." After Night Blade finished speaking, he quietly closed his eyes to rest, perhaps waiting for the five-minute betting period to pass, or perhaps he went to place his own bet.

Seeing that the other party didn't want to talk, Yang Yu ignored him and looked at the starry sky outside the betting arena, where a huge number of spectators were gathered.

Four minutes passed.

"Babata, what are my odds now?"

"Hehe, it's already 1:110!" Babata said happily. "The opponent's odds are 1:1.03."

"All in! Bet all the remaining Ganwu Dollar on me and I'll win!"

Yang Yu said calmly.

Since it was a battle between Planetary Level 4 -tier opponent and Star Level 5 opponent, even though the opponent's odds were very low, to outsiders, betting on Night Blade was practically like picking up money. So most people still chose to bet on Night Blade, since as long as they had enough capital, they could still win a lot.

These people never imagined that Night Blade, Star Level Spirit Reader with a high win rate, would lose to a Planetary Level Martial Artist, even though the Planetary Level Martial Artist had a 100% win rate.

Five minutes passed.

The prize pool has accumulated to an astonishing 12 billion Ganwu Dollar!

Perhaps the organizers noticed Yang Yu's exceptional abilities, and given Night Blade's considerable strength and popularity, they increased the exposure of this match, bringing it into the public eye.

I finally have some free time this weekend, so I'm writing a small burst of 8,000 words. I'd also like to ask for some monthly votes!
