Chapter 125 - 125: Wen Tianqing’s Madness
Sky Dragon Empire’s genius competition not only affected the future of Sky Dragon Empire, but also the other empires and mysterious families.
This was because Sky Dragon Empire wanted to see their geniuses grow rapidly and increase their strength.
The other factions and empires did not want to see such a thing happen because it would affect their future.
During the competition in Sky Dragon Empire, countless experts and even the army of Tian Jin Empire were rushing toward Sky Dragon Empire.
After Li Lingtian, Tang Zimeng and the other three had fun at the Silver Phoenix Lake for a few hours, they returned to the plaza for the competition. Li Lingtian was facing a Tier Nine peak Martial King powerhouse.
Needless to say, he had defeated Li Lingtian easily. With that, Li Lingtian had entered the top sixty. Countless Warriors and factions had no choice but to take this young man seriously.
Even many Martial Arts Grandmaster powerhouses had begun to understand Li Lingtian for the sake of the Prodigy Roll.
However, to their disappointment, Li Lingtian had risen to prominence a year ago and finally entered Hidden Dragon Island. This year was the time when Li Lingtian had risen to prominence.
In just over a year’s time, he had advanced to become a Martial Apprentice and reached the current Tier Nine Martial Numinous Realm.
On the first day, he entered the 240th place. On the second day, he entered the 60th place.
On the third day, Li Lingtian defeated a Tier One Martial Arts Grandmaster with the Ice Vitality Divine Fist, the Astounding Sword Technique, and his Profound Armament.
The fact that Li Lingtian had defeated a Tier One Martial Arts Grandmaster shocked all the Warriors in the plaza. This was because Li Lingtian’s reputation had soared recently and he had won every single time.
However, his opponents were all Martial Kings. Even Wen Tianqing admitted defeat.
Now, Li Lingtian had defeated a Tier One Warrior Ascendant in front of all the Warriors. This meant that Li Lingtian was a Warrior Spirit Realm and his strength had already reached Tier One Warrior Ascendant. No one would not be terrified by the concept of this.
On the third day, there was only one match. Even if there was only one match, the battle would be extremely fierce. As long as one won, they would be able to enter the top 15. On the fourth day, as long as they won one match, they would be able to enter the top 10.
With the end of the battle, all the forces and martial artists began to get excited because the true geniuses would appear.
The only bright spot was Li Lingtian. Li Lingtian, a Tier Nine Warrior Spirit at the peak, was actually standing on the same level as fourteen Tier Four or Five Martial Arts Grandmasters.
This was also Li Lingtian’s luck as he was facing a Tier One Warrior Ascendant. If he were to face a Tier Three or Four Warrior Ascendant, no one could guarantee that Li Lingtian would be able to advance.
A quiet night passed, but some martial artists began to place their bets.
” Those who bet on Young Master Ling Tian entering the top ten will have a 1:3 odds. In other words, those who bet on Li Lingtian’s victory will earn three times the Spiritual Stones.”
There were countless bets in Sky Dragon City. The biggest bet was one to seven, which was the bet on Li Lingtian. If he won, he would get seven times the Spiritual Stones.
The smallest bet would be one to two. Those who bet on Li Lingtian’s victory would receive twice the Spiritual Stones. Such a bet would increase their confidence in Li Lingtian.
“I bet three hundred thousand on Li Lingtian.”
“I bet one million on Yang Tianming.”
“I bet on Wen Ling, three million.”
” Although Li Lingtian is powerful and can be said to be the number one genius in Eastern Spirit Greenland in ten thousand years, defeating a Tier One Martial Arts Grandmaster at the Warrior Spirit Realm is impossible for him to defeat other Tier Four and Tier Five martial artists. I’ll still bet five million on Cheng Xiaotian.”
” Brother Zhang is right. I believe Brother Zhang. I’ll bet five million too.”
Although many Warriors had placed their bets on Li Lingtian, most of them did not think highly of him. A genius was indeed a genius, but even a Warrior Spirit would not stand a chance to enter the top ten.
“How big can the stakes be?”
At this moment, a calm voice rang out. The voice was calm, but it was very loud. Immediately, all the martial artists who had placed their bets fell silent.
Everyone looked towards the door and saw a young man walking in. When they saw this young man, everyone recognized him and revealed a disdainful expression.
That’s right, this person was Wen Tianqing. Last time, she admitted defeat in front of everyone and made countless warriors look down on her.
He did not expect that he would appear at this time. Although he looked down on Wen Tianqing, no one dared to provoke him now. He was a Martial Arts Grandmaster and a genius of the Wen family.
More importantly, Li Lingtian had defeated a Tier One Martial Arts Grandmaster today. This was enough to prove that Wen Tianqing was not ashamed to admit defeat. Instead, she knew her place.
” So it’s Young Master Wen. Our Cyan Cloud Hall has been established in Sky Dragon City for 500 years. The Zhou family is behind us. Naturally, we won’t run away.”
” If we’re betting on Li Lingtian, the Verdant Cloud Hall can go without a cap. However, if we’re betting on someone else, we can only bet ten million.”
Liu Yu Zhong of the Blue Cloud Hall stood out. The fourth-rank Martial Arts Grandmaster aura on him made everyone look fearful.
” I see. You guys sure are brave to bet on Li Lingtian without a cap. In that case, I’ll bet sixty million on Li Lingtian. If our sect wins, you’ll have to pay us four hundred and twenty million.”
Wen Tianqing tossed out a storage pouch as soon as she said it was over. All the Warriors were stunned. Was he crazy to bet sixty million on Li Lingtian?
Even Liu Yuzhong was stunned. The Cyan Cloud Hall had made a crazy profit by betting sixty million in one go. This was because Li Lingtian could not possibly defeat a Tier Four or Five Martial Arts Grandmaster.
” Alright, the Green Cloud Hall has hundreds of years of reputation. If you win, the Green Cloud Hall will not give you a spirit stone.”
Liu Yu Zhong excitedly put away the sixty million spirit stones and took out a special jade slip. On it was engraved the special logo of the Zhou Clan and the Blue Cloud Hall. It also recorded the bet of sixty million and the multiple of the loss.
“I believe in your Zhou family and the Blue Cloud Hall.”
Wen Tianqing took the jade slip and checked it carefully. After making sure that there was no problem, she put it away carefully and put it into her storage pouch like a treasure. Then, she turned around and left.
This 60 million was borrowed from the Wen family’s reputation. He had even pawned a high-grade profound level weapon on him.
He had bet all his assets on Li Lingtian. If Li Lingtian won once, he would receive 420 million Spiritual Stones.
Not only would he be able to repay the Spiritual Stones that Li Lingtian owed him, but he would also be able to make a huge profit.
After placing his bet, he prayed in his heart that he would not make the wrong choice. He also prayed that Li Lingtian would win. This was all he had. If Li Lingtian lost, he would be dead.
After Wen Tianqing left, everyone was stunned. They kept scolding Wen Tianqing as a lunatic for betting sixty million on Li Lingtian. Their confidence was shaken.
However, the next thing was not over yet. After Wen Tianqing left, another important figure came to Cyan Cloud Palace.
“We’ve finally arrived at the Blue Cloud Hall.”
A sweet voice rang out. Instantly, all the martial artists in the Blue Cloud Hall were attracted by this sweet voice. However, when they saw the person who spoke, they all turned their eyes away..
