The area around Tianjun Peak has already been crowded with spectators. In terms of popularity, it is not much worse than during the alliance selection three months ago, or even more so.
Most of these audiences are Xia Chen's fans, excitedly waiting for their idol to return like a hero with his feet on the auspicious clouds and the roar of gongs and drums, setting off an epic mythical event.
Even though Xia Chen has been recognized as incapable of entering the realm of supernatural powers, these stubborn but cute fans still refuse to believe it.
Probably in this world, they are the only ones who unswervingly believe in Xia Chen and support Xia Chen no matter where they are, thinking that Xia Chen will definitely come back.
In addition to Xia Chen's fans, there are also some people who are gloating and ready to watch the joke. Naturally, they will not let go of this night that is destined to attract attention.
There are also some people who are quite calm-minded monks. They naturally don't think that Xia Chen can break through the realm of supernatural powers, but they always want to find out in their hearts.
After all, Xia Chen had vowed at the beginning that if he didn't come tonight or was defeated, he would be a slap in the face, and he would die with a shameful reputation, and would also implicate the relatives and friends behind him.
Of course, I don’t know how many pairs of eyes are watching in the dark, including some high-ranking big shots.
In addition, the most exciting and active places are the major gambling houses in Jin'an City.
During the alliance selection, the major gambling houses suffered heavy losses. Except for the small and medium-sized gambling houses that went bankrupt due to losses, even the big gambling houses almost couldn't bear it. This loss would naturally have to be recovered from Xia Chen.
Therefore, whether Xia Chen can defeat Wang Zhongdi becomes the only bet.
This seems to be nothing to bet on, because after Mr. Zuo's sentence and humiliation, anyone with some sense knows that Xia Chen can't break through the realm of magical powers. If there is no suspense, how can he bet?
However, the gambling house has its own method. The ratio of their bets on Xia Chen's loss is one in 100.
In other words, if you want Xia Chen to lose, you only need one bet, but if you want Xia Chen to win, you need a hundred bets. But if Xia Chen wins, the winner will get a hundred times the bet, and the casino will suffer heavy losses.
Since the gambling house set up this gambling game, it would naturally not worry about the lack of buyers who want to buy Xia Chen to win. There are so many idiot fans who claim to be Xia Chen. How can they prove their support for Xia Chen?
So under the widespread rumors, a large number of Xia Chen's die-hard fans gritted their teeth and bought Xia Chen's winning bet.
This bet can be described as a big deal. The bets placed by both the winning and losing sides were already astronomical. It was enough to scare any monk in Jin'an City, and both sides vowed that they would win. After the fight, it almost reached a fever pitch.
It can be said to be a gamble of life and death.
In a luxurious hall, dozens of men in uniforms were busy, typing and calculating on the forbidden light board in front of them.
On it, there is a personal name or code name. Behind the name and code name are different numbers, some for winning and some for losing, representing the bets placed by each person.
At the bottom of the bet, a long series of numbers has been formed.
In the center of the hall, there is a luxurious and simple Eight Immortals table. Four old men in rich and colorful clothes sit around, tasting the finest tea and fruits from Jin'an City. There are more than a dozen beautiful maids serving respectfully.
From time to time, the four old men looked at the huge forbidden jade tablet that was about 10 feet tall, with joy on their faces.
"I didn't expect that there are so many dandy boys in Jin'an City, and they are even more idiotic than we thought. For a short-lived ghost, a waste who can't step into the realm of supernatural powers in any case, they are willing to pay so many white yuan stones. It's really shocking.
People are surprised." An old man with a pointed chin said with a smile while stroking his sparse beard.
"Haha, Master Qin, isn't this better? The more idiots like this, the greater the losses we will recover, and we can even make huge profits. Haha, I am so happy that I can't help but kiss these idiots. Yes
They made it possible for us." Another old man with a gray beard smiled, his eyes full of pride.
"Zhuang Master Xu is right. After these idiots lose money, they will not target us, but will only spread their grievances on that short-lived trash Xia Chen. Maybe they will tear him to pieces."
, just in time to repay the bad breath that caused us heavy losses before!" The old man with triangular eyes also smiled with a red face.
"Hehe, when that good-for-nothing Xia Chen left Jin'an City three months ago, he killed the owners of those small gambling houses, which happened to do us a big favor. No one will take over their industry. After we win the bets of these idiots,
, we can annex those small gambling shops and grow bigger from now on. From now on, we can reach out to the sky in Jin'an City and monopolize the entire gambling industry, which will be a huge source of money!" The last old man with wrinkles on his face even laughed wildly.
"Tonight, let us witness the fate of that short-lived loser. It feels so good to have everything under control, hahahahaha..."
The five old men laughed triumphantly together.
In Tianjun Peak and Tongtian Tower, hundreds of disciples who had been selected by the alliance were in high spirits, standing in the arena, silently waiting for the final decisive battle between Xia Chen and Emperor Wang Zhong to compete for the first place in the alliance selection.
For all the disciples, the mood is actually the same as that of all calm-minded people. Although they are convinced that Xia Chen cannot break through the magical power, they cannot completely calm down until the last moment.
After all, that boy had created too many miracles. Even if the fifth-level elders of the alliance sentenced him to death, everyone would still have little hope for him.
In three months, many qualified disciples have undergone tremendous changes.
Although they only stood solemnly, both their momentum and demeanor showed a trace of majesty and strength, full of energy, shining eyes, and a vague sense of superiority.
This is exactly the sign of the initial formation of the realm of supernatural powers.
Although they did not release any breath, these disciples had undoubtedly entered the realm of supernatural powers.
The league selection for more than half a month is equivalent to a big opportunity. The better you can reach the best, the more benefits you will get. And since you can qualify, you will naturally be the best among people. After another three months of hard training,
Rebirth and breakthrough in supernatural powers are a matter of course.
Even those qualifying disciples who have not yet broken through to the realm of supernatural powers look energetic, with clear eyes and a faint light on their foreheads. It is obvious that they have reached the critical point of the realm of supernatural powers, and a breakthrough is in sight.
Yan Zi stood silently among the qualifying disciples. He was the only disciple from a second-rate country or below, other than Xia Chen, to qualify and break through the magical realm within three months. Logically speaking, he should be proud enough.
But at this time, Yan Zi's face was only calm, which was a kind of low-key and calm after experiencing honor and disgrace.
He looked at the arena in ecstasy, thinking, Xia Chen, you will definitely come. Is that right? Even if you have not stepped into the magical power, you will appear here, right? I want to thank you. Without your
A punch of enlightenment. It is impossible for me to break through the realm of supernatural powers so quickly...
"Do you think he will come?" Youkang stood lazily, stuffing small pastries into his mouth and asked calmly.
"Yes!" Lin Yueyi, Lu Xuelun and Song Mingzhu said in unison, obviously understanding who Youkang was referring to.
Youyoukang nodded and suddenly smiled strangely: "Don't blame me for not telling you beforehand. I spent a hundred yuan to buy Xia Chen to win. I didn't even dare to tell others. I'm also a die-hard fan of that kid."
The three people immediately looked at him with strange eyes.
Youyoukang swallowed the pastry, then burst into laughter, and said proudly: "Just wait for me to earn ten thousand yuan, and then you will be envious and jealous."
"Damn fat man, you are really not interesting." Lin Yue said, suddenly beaming, "Fortunately, I am also one of Xia Chen's stupid fans, and I also bought a hundred yuan stone to win, which is no worse than a die-hard like you."
"Damn it, when did you become as cunning as me?" Yukang screamed strangely.
"Hey, I heard that even Xia Chen's die-hard fans are divided into levels. One hundred yuan stone is just the lowest bet. Although I am a poor guy, I am still a little higher than you two."
Lu Xuelun chuckled, stretched out his palm, and repeated it three times.
"One hundred and fifty yuan stones!"
"Ci'ao, Lao Lu, you are so scheming!"
Youyoukang and Lin Yueyi exclaimed in unison.
Suddenly, the three of them turned their attention to Song Mingzhu, as if it was the eve of the selection.
Three months have passed and Song Mingzhu has fully recovered.
She is indeed a peerless genius. She actually broke through and stood up again. She found an opportunity despite being seriously injured. Not only did she break through the realm of supernatural powers long ago, but her aura was so strong that she seemed to be a little deeper than Lin Yueyi and others.
"Why are you looking at me?" Song Mingzhu narrowed her beautiful eyes, "I am not a die-hard fan of Xia Chen!"
"I don't know who it is. I just woke up and knew the whole situation. I admire Xia Chen so much that I wish I could commit myself to marrying him and bring shame to all the four kings of heaven." Youkang and the other three booed in unison.
made a sound.
"You lost a lot on Xia Chen last time, do you plan to lose a lot this time?" Lin Yue said with a smile.
Song Mingzhu smiled faintly: "Who said I planned to lose money? You are all weak compared to me. I bet 500 yuan on Xia Chen to win!"
The three of them were immediately stunned.
"You, you, you... didn't you say you're not a fan of Xia Chen?" Youkang was so shocked that he couldn't even speak.
"It's true that I am not." Song Mingzhu said every word, "But I have fallen in love with him."
…
The four people from Fengling and Lei stood in front of the restricted light curtain. At this time, the live broadcast had started, and everything in the arena could be clearly seen outside.
"Even I don't know now whether I want Xia Chen to come or not." Yang Quan said solemnly, "If it's just to go to the appointment for a decisive battle and fulfill the promise, it's not worth it. Fortunately, Mr. Zuo has something to do.
Leave the alliance, otherwise Xia Chen will not know what difficulties he will face."
"I heard that Xia Chen killed dozens of first-level magical powers outside Jin'an City three months ago, and even several second-level magical powers died. Although it is just a rumor, it is definitely not true, but it is estimated that he can kill people in the acquired realm.
He is the only practitioner of magical powers who is qualified. If we really fight today, the King of Kings doesn't actually have much chance of winning." Feng Lei sighed.
"If he doesn't break through the magical power, then everything will stop." Chen Gulan shook his head and said, "Even if he can defeat Wang Zhongdi, the peak of the first level of magical power, it will be equivalent to losing the bet. Not only will he not be able to enter the alliance, but... I don't want him to come. , even if it is the reputation of being too shamed to challenge."
"Even so, Mr. Zuo and Emperor Wang Zhong will not let go of Xia Chen and the sect behind him. This is a situation where no matter what choice he makes, he will face a dilemma of life and death. Unless he... breaks through the magical power and defeats Emperor Wang Zhong, then It's the only choice." Xu Tianhong said.
The three of them, Fengling and Lei, were silent. Even though they were extremely reluctant to believe it, this was the fact.
After a long time, Yang Quan's voice sounded bitterly: "We monks don't believe in heaven or fate, but now, we can only place our hope on illusory miracles."
