Free Web NovelChapter 682: Chapter 682 The Goddess of Luck
Captain One-eyed, too, made a lot of money and was as delighted as a child.
Of course, Wu Qingcheng made more money. As a result, others imitated her bets according to every move she made.
She was a beauty who was eye-catching. In addition, every time she made a move, it would stun others with the huge bet she made, not to mention how she could always win money. It was why for a time, many gamblers regarded her as the goddess of luck and followed every bet she made.
Once the casino owners operating the casino saw Wu Qingcheng coming over, they had helpless looks on their faces. freewёbnoνel.com
Wu Qingcheng was the reason for the deduction in their profit earned.
Especially after the gamblers began to go with the trend, they started earning deficit earnings.
Soon, it was time for Lin Sen, who had been taking a rest, to return to the battlefield. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Ye Liuyun’s Golden Phantom Eyes discovered that he had only replenished one-third of his genuine energy.
His opponent was in the same realm as him with similar levels of strength, but he had sufficient genuine energy.
In the face of such an opponent, if Lin Sen didn’t have a trump card, he wouldn’t dare to go on stage. Nonetheless, he went straight to the preparation area and waited for everyone to place their bet.
In the competition, the odds for both of them were one to two.
Captain One-eyed urged Ye Liuyun to make a prediction. He had long been addicted to winning.
Ye Liuyun fell into a brief moment of deep thought, but he failed to come up with a decision.
Logically speaking, Lin Sen would undoubtedly lose, but the more that was the case, the more he suspected Lin Sen had a trump card.
Else, with his one-third genuine energy left, he should know that he was no match for his opponent.
"I’m not sure about this either. Let’s not bet on it!"
Ye Liuyun turned to tell Captain One-eyed.
"Sigh, I’ve already told you that this is just for fun. Why are you being so serious? Even if you won’t tell me, I’ll bet. I bet on Lin Sen’s defeat."
"Is it possible for Lin Sen to win?" Lei Ming asked Ye Liuyun out of curiosity.
"He’ll definitely lose if he doesn’t have an ace up his sleeve!" Ye Liuyun spoke with certainty.
"Why don’t you bet on him then?" Lei Ming couldn’t help asking in confusion.
By the side, Wu Qingcheng chimed in with a smile, "You know you’re going to die, yet you insist on going forward to compete? What does this mean?"
Lei Ming came to a sudden realization. "Oh! That is to say, he has a trump card. Will he win?"
Ye Liuyun shook his head. "I don’t know what his trump card is, so I’m not sure either. Perhaps his opponent also has some kind of trump card? That’s why I don’t have a grasp on the situation!"
It was not in all cases that Ye Liuyun would get Wu Qingcheng to bet.
To Ye Liuyun, only in such situations was it considered to be a gamble.
He wouldn’t gamble!
His so-called "gambling" was basically made after he confirmed the result.
Similarly, he had never ordered Wu Qingcheng to make a huge bet, so as not to arouse the disgust of the casino owners and attract hate.
Many gamblers were looking in Wu Qingcheng’s direction. Seeing that she didn’t make a move for a long time, they knew that the lucky goddess didn’t intend to place her bet right then.
Seeing that, some sighed and returned to their seats.
Although many of those in the crowd found it regretful, they made a bet based on their preferences.
"Qingcheng, your supporters, seem to be very disappointed, don’t they?" Lei Ming joked to Wu Qingcheng with a smile.
Wu Qingcheng chuckled in response. "The one they’re truly supporting is Ye Liuyun! I’m just an errand runner!"
Ever since Ye Liuyun took his seat, he had not been idle.
He couldn’t help observing the battle in the field, not forgetting to scan the situation of the audience around him.
There were countless experts among the audience.
Their bloodline and quality of genuine energy were far superior to the ordinary.
After probing into their strength, Ye Liuyun affirmed the thought that it could indeed result in a lot of pressure to challenge 50 consecutive victories.
Especially for those whose realms were two levels higher than his, and those who could challenge others across realms, he would feel greater pressure and burden.
He had just tried his recovery speed.
There was too much space in his virtuoso phase, hence he required a large amount of genuine energy. If he was given only two hours, he would only be able to recover a fourth of his genuine energy by absorbing spiritual stones.
If things continued as it was, Ye Liuyun agreed that he wouldn’t be able to challenge fifty martial art artists.
It was because Ye Liuyun was worried that a quarter of his genuine energy might not be enough to deal with those experts.
While he was deep in thought, Lin Sen and his opponent had begun their fight.
In the beginning, Lin Sen launched a fierce punch before withdrawing an Honorable Level treasure and throwing it at his opponent.
Obviously, he knew that his genuine energy was insufficient, so he wished to end the battle as soon as possible.
Ye Liuyun’s eyes lit up at the sight.
"Can they use treasures? If that’s the case, I guess I can go ahead and challenge them!"
In addition to the two Divine Weapons, the Death Bell and the Demon-sealing Stele, Ye Liuyun also owned a set of divine-level demon-hunting equipment. With the items in possession, even if it was an expert at the peak of the Yin-yang Realm, he would no longer have to fear them.
Lei Ming called out as well. "Can they use treasures?"
Obviously, she had the same idea as Ye Liuyun. Even Wu Qingcheng was eager to have a try.
"When you’ve decided to sign up, go and check with the deacon. If it’s possible, those with treasures are allowed to fight!"
If they were allowed to use treasures, Ye Liuyun would be at ease for the rest of his team to step forward. They all had at least Honorable Level treasures.
It was especially the case for those with Divine Weapons. Even if they couldn’t win, it wouldn’t be a problem for them to protect themselves and admit defeat.
In the fighting ring, those who bet on Lin Sen’s win all curled the corners of their lips in a knowingly smile upon witnessing Lin Sen withdraw an Honorable Level treasure.
Soon, their smiles froze on their faces.
It was because Lin Sen’s opponent, too, uncovered an Honorable Level treasure to fight against him.
As such, Lin Sen’s life-saving trump card would lose its effect.
From his face, Ye Liuyun could notice the obvious look of panic.
It was because very soon, Lin Sen’s genuine energy was about to be exhausted!
"I admit defeat!"
After two more moves, Lin Sen announced his surrender out loud.
His opponent had no choice but to stop his attack.
There was a rule in the arena that as long as the opponent admitted defeat, the other party had to stop.
Lin Sen’s failure attracted another round of scolding from the audience.
"You good-for-nothing! Why do you have to go on stage if you can’t defeat him? Who doesn’t have Honorable Level treasures?"
"A coward who doesn’t dare to risk his life! If he decides to go all out and fight to the death, he may not even lose!"
Lin Sen suffered such a terrible scolding that he couldn’t lift his head. After stepping down from the stage, he slipped away from the back door.
"Alas! They are... They pushed Lin Sen into continuing the fight, but they will start complaining once he’s defeated!" Lei Ming couldn’t hold himself back from defending Lin Sen.
"That’s what these onlookers are like. Since they aren’t going to fight in person, the lives of those in the arena have nothing to do with them. After you step onstage, you must have your own judgment. Don’t allow these onlookers to control your emotions!"
Ye Liuyun reminded them cautiously.
It was especially true for Lei Ming. Worried, he reminded him once more.
It wasn’t until Lei Ming nodded in agreement that Ye Liuyun led everyone to the registration counter.
Only Captain One-eyed remained in his seat. As he waved at the two, he urged, "Go ahead. I, an old man, want to live for two more years!"
