Chapter 460 Rising Reputation

Genres:Martial Arts and Xianxia Last update:25/03/23 21:04:08
        Under the guidance of Wan Jianjiang, Ding Huan arrived at the half-tide Gambling House.

    As for who established the Half Pool Gambling House, Wan Jinjiang did not know either. He only knew that with the establishment of the Half Pool Fairy City, there emerged the Half Pool Gambling House.

    And the mayor of the Half Pool Fairy City, Qian Zhen Ting, is one of the shareholders of the Half Pool Gambling House.

    This is also why people dare to bet in the Half Pool Gambling House. You may not know the true owner of the Half Pool Gambling House, but at least you should know that an extremely important person is also involved in it.

    Otherwise, who dares to bet casually?

    There are quite a few people in the Half Pool Gambling House, and in this Gate ranking grand match, there are betting lines for any match that is even slightly popular.

    Here, there are not only betting lines for the single game in Gate rankings, but also betting lines for the rankings of Gates, knockout games, personal rankings and so on.

    "Old Sixth Brother, you can bet on yourself winning here. For example, if you bet on yourself to win the next match, that is allowed."

    After Wan Jinjiang led Ding Huan around the gambling house, seeing that Ding Huan had not yet bought anything, he worried that Ding Huan might not understand the rules, so he actively introduced a sentence.

    "Alright." Ding Huan walked over to the ranking bets.

    "May I ask what the odds are for betting on an individual's first-place finish?" Ding Huan inquired.

    Wan Jinjiang, who was by his side, had a heart skip when he heard this. Ah, he should have thought of buying Old Sixth's Battle Mastery First!

    With Old Sixth's strength, only Zuo Liang has the chance to defeat him. This isn't also a five out of ten chance?

    "Which Gate and which contestant do you want to bet on for the first place in which competition?" asked the cultivator at the window.

    "The general odds for a contestant from the Gate of 3211 in the Battle of the Divine Realm to win first place in a battle competition are like this." Ding Huan stated.

    "The odds are five to one." came the cold voice from the window.

    "So low? Ding Huan furrowed his brow. It seems that his abilities have attracted the attention of the gambling house."

    "Can you also tell me the odds for buying the first place in a battle formation competition by the 122nd disciple from the Gate of the Divine Realm?"

    "And what are the odds for betting on the Gate of the Divine Realm to win the first place in the Gate ranking grand competition?"

    "The odds for the 122nd disciple of the Divine Realm to win the first place in a battle formation competition are ten to one. The odds for a contestant from the Gate of the Divine Realm to win the first place in the Gate ranking grand competition are one hundred to one."

    Ding Huan understood basically after hearing this odds.

    It looks like the gambling house has conducted a thorough investigation; it was his participation in a round of the battle formation competition that lowered his odds.

    Otherwise, his odds for first place in the battle formation competition would definitely be one hundred to one.

    As for the Doufu, he can currently refine the fourth-level spirit symbol, and he doesn't have confidence to win first place, so he simply didn't ask.

    "Please place a bet on the Divine Realm Gate to win first place in this grand Gate competition, with one million high-quality spirit crystals."

    Ding Huan said and threw a storage bag in.

    If he wasn't afraid that the gambling house would cheat by not paying up, Ding Huan would directly bet a million high-quality spirit crystals.

    It's not uncommon to place a single bet of a million, but those are all on popular bets, like betting on the eight-star Gate of Jiu Kun Immortal Clan to win first, or betting on Zuo Liang to win the Battle Competition first, and so on.

    It's truly the first time for someone like Ding Huan to bet a million high-quality spirit crystals on a five-star Gate winning first place in the Gate ranking grand competition.

    Never mind, the gambling house is in business to make money.

    Betting on a five-star Gate to win the first place in the Gate ranking competition, I really don't know what's going through this guy's mind.

    The Gate ranking grand competition has been held for so long, and the first-place Gate has always been a seven-star or above, without any exceptions.

    So, for the gambling house, the more Ding Huan buys, the better.

    "I'll also bet ten thousand high-quality spirit crystals, on the Divine Realm Gate to win first place in this Gate ranking grand competition."

    Seeing Ding Huan buy a million high-quality spirit crystals to bet on the Divine Realm Gate to win first place in the Gate ranking grand competition, I looked at him.

    Wan Jinjiang, without hesitation, took out ten thousand high-quality spirit crystals and made the same bet as Ding Huan.

    "Very good, you have good taste, Old Wan. You seem interesting, and even your name sounds a bit more familiar to me." Ding Huan patted Wan Jinjiang and felt that the guy had some interesting qualities, and he even addressed him in a more friendly way.

    Wan Jinjiang was overjoyed. He naturally didn't believe that the Divine Realm Gate could win first place in the Gate ranking grand competition.

    He bought this because Ding Huan just did so. By now, buying the same as Ding Huan would naturally win his favor.

    If he could have put up ten thousand high-quality spirit crystals before, it would have been a major effort.

    These days he had won a bunch of spirit crystals, and ten thousand were just a drop in the bucket for him.

    Ding Huan returned to the battle area, and the fifth round of the competition had also ended.

    He saw Yan Sha, who had been severely injured, and even Meng Yao Senior Elder was here. The two were both at Platform Number Two, so they must be waiting for him.

    Yan Sha's arm was gone, his face as pale as paper, with some gray streaks at the temples.

    In the battle arena, it's a fact that many cultivators meet their end. Not just those as severely injured as Yan Sha, but also many who lose their lives.

    So Yan Sha's situation did not attract much attention.

    "Old Sixth Brother." Seeing Ding Huan approach, Yan Sha was ready to greet him.

    "What happened to you, Yan Sha?" Ding Huan furrowed his brow.

    Yan Sha was a very gentle person, and Ding Huan had also watched one of his rounds of competitions. He didn't use cruel techniques in his battles, and he never injured his opponents after winning.

    Old Meng Yao sighed, "Yan Sha didn't make it past the fifth round. He was heavily injured by someone else."

    Yan Sha took a deep breath and said:

    "Old Sixth Brother, I'm not satisfied. I came to inform you that, in my match with him, I knew from the very beginning that I wasn't his opponent. I immediately acknowledged defeat, but his domain held me down and prevented me from freeing myself."

    I can only tell him that my master is very strong and please spare his life. He seems to have a grudge against me and has determined to kill me.

    I had to burn my lifespan desperately, with the help of a substitute soul talisman, and it was with one arm that I exchanged for my life."

    Yan Sha said this, and Ding Huan immediately understood why Yan Sha was waiting for him here.

    Yan Sha couldn't bear the humiliation and wanted Ding Huan to help him take revenge.

    "What's his name?" Ding Huan had a good impression of Yan Sha, so he agreed to take on the grudge.

    "Xiangiu Gong, a disciple of Ling Yao Pavilion in the Eight Star Gate, is one of the top ten Xuan Xians in Da Xian Yuzhi, ranked third." Yan Sha gritted his teeth and said.

    Meng Yao said hatefully on the side, "This brat is too shameless. He not only cut off Yan Sha's arm and won the match, but he also shattered Yan Sha's arm."

    Ding Huan patted Yan Sha on the shoulder and said, "Yan Sha, since you have recognized me as your master, as long as he can last until the platform match, I will definitely make you satisfied."

    "Alright." Yan Sha clenched his fists, and he believed that Ding Huan could help him take revenge.

    Ding Huan's thunder tribulation was so terrifying; how could his strength be inferior? Moreover, he had watched Ding Huan's recent matches, and he was definitely capable of defeating Han Qiong Sang.

    "Alright, Meng Yao Senior Elder, take Yan Sha back to treat his wounds."

    After Meng Yao left, the sixth round of the competition was about to begin.

    In this elimination tournament, the matches get faster and faster as they progress.

    Ding Huan waited for half an hour before it was his turn, and his opponent in the sixth round of the competition was a disciple from the Cloud Shadow Immortal Clan.

    In Ding Huan's eyes, it could be said that his spiritual element was rich. He was able to make it to the sixth round entirely due to this thick spiritual element and the sheer endurance of his opponents.

    Indeed, during the battle with Ding Huan, he immediately adopted a defensive strategy that was impenetrable.

    Ding Huan was able to break through the opponent's defenses with just one strike, as in a tournament, it's necessary to have a back-and-forth battle, then one strike to defeat the opponent.

    How can I wait for you to defend for half an hour before I slash you down with one strike?

    Seeing Ding Huan tear through his defenses with a single slash, the cultivator grew anxious and decided to switch from defense to offense, launching a full-scale attack at Ding Huan.

    What relieved him was that his opponent seemed to be somewhat impressive with the first strike, but the subsequent attacks were ordinary, and he was able to hold his own.

    At least on the surface, the qi of the Taiyuan weaved, and the blade light flew.

    After about a dozen exchanges, Ding Huan finally kicked the cultivator who was preparing to unleash a powerful attack out of the competition platform.

    How did I lose? This disciple of the Cloud Shadow Immortal Clan, who was still in a daze after being kicked off the platform, asked.

    Ding Huan came down from the competition platform, and after waiting for less than half an hour, it was time for the seventh round of the competition.

    Again, after about twenty rounds, he knocked his opponent off the competition platform.

    Then came the eighth round of competition, and for Ding Huan, it was about twenty exchanges before his opponent was knocked off the platform.

    Some cultivators had already figured out the pattern, which was that the matches against the 3211th disciple of the Divine Realm Gate, generally ended after about twenty strikes.

    Whether you are strong or weak, the time it takes to be knocked off the platform is roughly the same.

    Savvy cultivators also noticed that those who made it this far had killed at least one or more people.

    Even those who hadn't killed any opponents had at least a few matches where they seriously injured their adversaries.

    Only the 3211th disciple's "Old Sixth" was virtually unscathed, let alone killed, in his hands.

    Except for that Yu San Chen, who acted like a big shot in front of the 3211th disciple, was kicked in the face by Ding Huan, shattering his facial bones.

    The reputation of the 3211th disciple began to spread among the crowd, quickly spreading throughout the competition area.

    When everyone learned that even Yu San Chen had been defeated by the 3211th disciple, the 3211th disciple started to gain popularity in the betting shop.

    After completing the eighth round, Ding Huan didn't even leave the competition platform; he was immediately greeted by the ninth round of the fight.

    This was the final round of elimination, after which the platform match would take place.

    "Hei Qian of the Immortal Palace has seen Old Sixth Brother." This time, the cultivator who came forward was very polite to Ding Huan. Who doesn't know about Ding Huan's reputation by now?

    But a formidable warrior who has defeated the Top Ten Xuan Xians.

    The Immortal Palace? Ding Huan saw the cultivator's clothes of the Immortal Palace and immediately thought of Chong Qingqing.

    The Cong Qingqing who plotted against Fu Yu Xing, also from the Immortal Palace.

    In the past, when competing for the True Immortal World in the Everlasting Path of Immortality City, he had clashed with Cong Qingqing.

    However, at that time, they were fighting in a formation.

    Cong Qingqing was calculated, and he didn't know if this guy was still in the Immortal Palace now.

    Whether he is from the Immortal Palace or not, Ding Huan wasn't interested in wasting words with him. After the ninth round was over, he had to prepare for the first round of the battle talisman competition and the second round of the formation battle.

    As for the platform competition, there is more time to spare.

    The platform competition lasts for a day, and there are ten competition platforms. As long as it's within one day, you can challenge when you want to.

    So after the other person finished speaking, Ding Huan swung his long sword cleanly at him.
