Taihuang Star Seal

"How much do you want to bet?"

The manager in charge of gambling pay at the arena asked Ding Chen, while motioning him to put the banknote on the tray: "Put the banknote here, and it will take effect after it is registered in the register."

"I'm not betting on silver bills, I'm betting on spiritual stones."

"Oh?"

The manager raised his eyebrows.

As we all know, in the cultivation world, silver notes are basically equivalent to waste paper.

Only the "spiritual stone" born from heaven and earth and full of mysterious spiritual attributes is the universal currency that can be used everywhere!

According to the agreed ratio, in the secular world, one low-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one million gold coins.

But in fact, the number of gold coins that can be exchanged for spirit stones will be even greater.

Also, the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon] is the place where "many powerful people gather" from the secular world to the cultivation world.

The trading of spirit stones here happens from time to time and is not uncommon.

The manager smiled flatteringly: "Haha, it's no problem for the company to bet spiritual stones. If you win, we will return all the spiritual stones you bet."

"In addition, we will also settle the account with you at the ratio of 1.2 million gold coins to one spirit stone."

Ding Chen heard this and shook his head: "I don't want the banknotes."

"I'm betting with spirit stones this time, so what I win back should naturally be spirit stones as well!"

"Ah? This..."

The manager was a little embarrassed: "Then how much do you want to bet?"

If the amount is too small and there is no profit to be made, he is unwilling to operate it as it is too troublesome.

"Five thousand eight hundred low-grade spirit stones."

Ding Chen said lightly.

"W-what?"

"so much?!"

This time, everyone was shocked!

Even in the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon], 5,800 low-grade spirit stones is definitely a huge sum of money...

Apart from the Four Heavenly Kings, it is difficult to find other cultivators who can come up with such an astonishing number of spirit stones!

Unless, one of them can kill his way through a country’s palace like Ding Chen did!

He took all the wealth of civil and military officials, as well as the king himself, for himself.

"Besides, I also plan to bet on these storage rings."

As Ding Chen spoke, he winked at Wei Sanniang and Zhu Honghu.

The two of them immediately understood and put all their extra storage rings that had been emptied earlier on the stakes.

After this, each of them still had two storage rings left, which was enough for the time being.

"All these low-grade spiritual weapon storage rings, combined, are worth 700 spiritual stones. Isn't that too much?"

"Yes, indeed."

The person in charge of the arena nodded awkwardly.

It was the first time he saw someone take out more than ten storage rings at once to exchange for spirit stones!

Ding Chen waved his hand and said, "A total of 6,500 low-grade spirit stones, bet on me to win!"

"Fuck, this guy is really fucking generous!"

"Six thousand five hundred low-grade spirit stones. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. With a bit of luck, it should be enough to buy two 'high-grade spirit weapons', right?"

"Hehe, if you ask me, he is really a bit stupid. He doesn't even understand the principle of not showing off your wealth."

"He doesn't think that he can ignore all the heroes in the world just because he has a strong man at the fifth level of the Soul Gathering Realm protecting him, right?"

"What? Do you still want to rob him?"

"Save it!"

"Don't forget, this kid is going to fight a life-and-death battle with the three brothers of the Xue family this time."

"Do you think those three jackals will let him walk off the ring alive?"

"Once he dies, these spirit stones will naturally be divided up by the winner of the bet..."

"Yeah, how could I have forgotten about this!"

"No, such a good opportunity can't be wasted, I have to bet some spirit stones and make a profit!"

Therefore, those cultivators who had previously bet silver notes redeemed them one after another.

Then he went through many channels like "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Each Showing Their Magical Powers" and got a lot of spirit stones, and continued to bet on Ding Chen to lose!

Even though the odds have reached an astonishing 25:1, I still enjoy it...

Without considering the 5% "arena draw";

If you bet fifty spirit stones, you can earn back two in the blink of an eye.

This is the real "spiritual stone"!

Anyone who doesn’t seize such a good opportunity to make money is a fool!

No one would think that this was a fake competition deliberately arranged by the Xue family.

Because this is a "life and death battle", the kind that won't end until one dies!

How could the Xue family, one of the four kings of the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon], sacrifice two great sons with great potential just to earn more spirit stones?

What was ruined was the future of the Xue family!

For this reason, even if you earn a hundred thousand spirit stones, you will still lose money...

Therefore, everyone tried their best to collect spirit stones and place big bets!

They were all excited about the opportunity to make a fortune.

Only the three brothers of the Xue family felt unhappy!

Because in their opinion, the spirit stones that Ding Chen was using for betting should have been the spoils of killing the young man.

But now...

"Damn it, this little bastard is really good at making trouble!"

"We have lost such a large amount of spiritual stones in vain!"

"Brother, how about we also get some spirit stones to bet?"

Xue Xiangyang said anxiously: "In this situation, we definitely can't eat alone."

"If I place a bet now, I can get some spirit stones from killing this kid. It's better than working in vain for nothing..."

"Well, Third Brother, what you said makes sense!"

So, the three Xue brothers also joined the action of "grabbing chips".

In the end, Ding Chen's odds of winning soared to a terrifying 30:1.

Old Zhang, who had just withdrawn his banknotes and placed bets on spirit stones, now had a very satisfied look on his face.

"Hehe, luckily that guy only accepted spirit stones, which gave me a chance to regret my bet."

"Now it's settled. I've collected 32 spiritual stones from all over the place, and I'm betting all of them on the three Xue brothers to win!"

"After this battle, after deducting the commission, I can still earn a spiritual stone for sure."

"After pulling back from the brink, I feel a pleasant surprise. It's really cool! Hahahaha..."

Before this, when everyone was betting with silver bills, the number of people who bet on Ding Chen to win was pitifully small.

Now that the betting has changed to "spiritual stones", there are even fewer people who dare to bet on Ding Chen to win, trying to make a small profit with a big risk!

Wei Sanniang and Zhu Honghu are two of them.

"Buzz!"

At a certain moment, a translucent light curtain suddenly rose up around the arena, covering the entire arena.

This formation's light curtain is strong enough to withstand a full-strength attack from a Soul Gathering Realm expert, and can ensure that spectators are not affected by the fighting on the field.

The protective formation commonly used in arenas like this not only requires the help of a formation master to set it up, but also requires the use of spirit stones as energy to drive it.

This is also the reason why many gamblers who watch the game are willing to be "charged" by the arena...

When everything was ready, the host struck the gong hard.

"Boom!"

"The fight begins..."

As the words fell.

Xue Xiangyang, who was hiding in the corner, shouted at Ding Chen with a grim smile: "Hey, idiot, when you die, I can still play with your woman!"

“And it doesn’t cost a penny~ Hahahaha…”

Xue Xiangxing stood beside his third brother, with his arms folded, looking on.

In his opinion, his second brother was enough to kill the opponent, and there was no need for him to do anything himself.

"Boy, today I will teach you a principle of survival in the [Tianti Mountain Grand Canyon]—"

"Don't even mention wanting your woman..."

"Even if my brothers from the Xue family want your head, you have to obediently take it off and offer it to me!"

As he spoke, Xue Xiangtian's fierce killing move arrived!

The long spear in his hand, made of icy water, with unparalleled power, stabbed towards Ding Chen's face!

Just when it seemed like it was about to hit, Ding Chen suddenly moved!

"Whoo~"

I saw a huge black sword, which was one step ahead of Xue Xiangtian's spear tip and arrived first.

Suddenly, there was a "puff" sound.

The giant sword "Chongshan" held by Ding Chen had already cut Xue Xiangtian in half!

Then, the young man scratched his ear with a wicked smile and said, "Ah? What did you say just now? I didn't hear clearly..."
