Not to mention Han Bei's depression, at the same time.
The duel between the two major forces attracted the attention of the entire smallpox capital martial arts, especially other forces.
Just after Chen hour, Lin Xi saw that the arena, which could accommodate three million people, was boiling and noisy from time to time.
Those casual cultivators who usually don't see the major forces, but really want to be one of them, are all as excited as chicken blood, making noises, and conveying various messages.
Big bosses from the royal family, the Martial Palace, the military, the City Guards, the Royal Guards, the Talisman Masters Guild, the Alchemy Masters Guild, the Weapon Masters Guild, the Mercenary Guild, etc. all came to watch, such as seven of the eight major trading houses.
Trading firms usually have competition and conflicts in business interests. At this time, it is even more important to come and witness the history of the historian.
These big forces all know that this time the Shi family forced Han Changgeng, the second shopkeeper of Tianhuaxiang Restaurant, to have a duel. One of them was a strong Martial Emperor Realm expert in his own family, and four of them were directly killed by Han Changgeng's so-called cousin. He needed to vent his anger.
Fight for face.
Secondly, it is also to show the strength and heritage of his family to all major forces, kill Han Changgeng, and declare the inviolability of the Shi family.
Third, in this duel, they were targeting Han Changgeng alone, but no one would think that this was just a personal grudge. It was actually a fierce collision between two major forces.
Once the Shijia won a strong victory, they actually intimidated other forces and also gave their own business a free advertisement.
When the three factors are combined, historians must win. They will definitely win.
Because all the forces know that Han Changgeng is only a fourth-level Martial Emperor Realm expert, but the big bosses all know that among the forces in the capital of the Tianhua Kingdom, there are not many fifth-level Martial Emperor Realm experts, but the big shop owner of Tianhua Xiang Restaurant
Han Bei should have the strength of the fifth-level Martial Emperor Realm.
But this time Han Bei didn't take action, and Shi Jia had a fifth-level warrior at the Martial Emperor Realm, so the audience present was far more optimistic about Shi Jia than those who were optimistic about Han Changgeng.
Two powerful reasons cannot be ignored.
One is that Shi Jia wants to fight Han Changgeng three times. This is a wheel battle.
One is that the strength of the strongest Martial Emperor in the Shi family is a small level higher than that of Han Changgeng, but the gap between the fifth-level Martial Emperor and the fourth-level Martial Emperor cannot be calculated.
The arena also opened a large gambling market at the right time.
The winning rate of the three powerful Martial King Realm masters in the Shi family is 1 point to 1 loss.
And Han Changgeng's winning rate was actually one to five.
It can be seen that even in the arena, Han Changgeng is not optimistic.
As soon as the betting market opened, all three million martial arts cultivators placed wild bets. Ninety-nine percent of the time, the bettors won.
Although the Shi family won in the end and only received one-tenth of the profit, it still could not stop the enthusiasm of all martial arts cultivators and even all the major and small forces.
Betting on a hundred high-grade Yuan stones, and you may finally get a profit of one high-grade Yuan stone, which is nothing.
The key is to make a sure profit without losing money. Anyone with normal thinking and no brain damage will choose to bet on the historian.
Some even bet all the wealth they have accumulated through hard work and risk on the historian's side.
Some family businesses or other forces that are not as strong as the top ten forces, but have some foundation, have even mobilized all the cash and high-grade Yuan stones they can mobilize to take a crazy gamble.
As for the ten major forces and the eight major trading houses, except for Shi Jia’s family, who bet an astonishing one billion high-grade Yuan stones on themselves to win, no other forces participated.
It's not that they don't want to take a gamble, but they feel that participating in this gamble would be beneath their status. At the same time, they don't really want the historian to win. They have all kinds of small thoughts and no big forces are involved.
However, these powerful young masters and young ladies used their private money to gamble, but they laughed it off and did not pay attention to it. Personal behavior does not represent family power.
Even so, in the arena of three million people, the amount of money betting on Shi Jia's victory reached an astonishing level of one trillion based on the above-mentioned high-grade Yuan Stones.
On the other hand, there were very few people who bet on Han Changgeng's victory. It's not that there were none, but compared to the pool of people who bet on Shijia, there were very few people.
There were less than five million high-grade Yuan stones that were bet on Han Changgeng's victory.
Lin Xi really wanted to take a gamble, but it could be said that he had no Yuan Stone on him now, and the gambling board in the arena only charged high-grade Yuan Stone as gambling capital.
He can't take out a large pile of seventh-level power talismans to offset his bet.
Short of money...
Lin Xi muttered in frustration.
At this moment, a gust of fragrant wind blew, the sound of a ring was heard, and a fairy-like figure appeared next to Lin Xi.
Oops!
Countless casual cultivators in the surrounding area were shouting loudly and making constant noises.
"She is the eldest daughter of a poet. Oh my god, the lover of my dreams, the most beautiful among the ten most beautiful women in the capital of Smallpox. Today I finally met a real fairy..."
"Shi Hanyan, Miss Shi, with her noble status, how can she watch the duel in the square? Shouldn't it be in a box? In the arena, every big force has its own box..."
"Keep your voice low, haven't you seen that the young master is not far behind Miss Shi? That is the most outstanding genius of this generation of the Jing family, Jing Sheng! Haven't you heard of him? He is only thirty years old.
At the age of 30, you have already reached the half-step of the Martial King Realm. What are you doing at the age of 30? Are you still worried about not being able to advance to the Martial King Realm?"
"A thirty-year-old half-step Martial Emperor, a genius among geniuses. Even if I, a casual cultivator, buy a ticket to watch a duel, it would be painful for several years. What is his background? I'm afraid he spends all day in resources.
Sleeping in a pile, and when you wake up, your level will be improved. There is no comparison. You have to seek death."
"Jing Shi Zi Ji, Shi Ci Ge Fu, the young masters of the eight major business houses, and the talented young ladies, which one is not the master who is buried in the pile of resources and sleeps? There is no need to be jealous, who makes our parents fail to live up to expectations, right?
"
…
The fragrant breeze blew over, and sitting next to the seat next to Lin Xi, a beautiful woman with misty hair, bulging front and back, eyebrows like distant mountains, and eyes like autumn waves sat down.
As soon as the woman sat down and before she spoke, she noticed something different about Lin Xi.
Unlike other martial arts cultivators who kept making noises, Lin Xi just glanced at her lightly and stopped paying attention. Instead, she kept biting her tongue with her fingers.
Shi Hanyan was used to the attention of wolves, but Lin Xi, on the other hand, was stunned for a moment, but immediately calmed down, treating her like a village woman and a passerby, which surprised her.
"Master, are you alone?"
The chirping of a warbler and the whispering of a swallow are like this, and your bones feel crispy when you hear them.
Everyone around him was also a strong casual cultivator with some strength. At this time, they were jealous of Lin Xi being paid attention to by Shi Hanyan, and they were all unhappy.
"What are you pretending to be? Isn't it just a casual practice? I know I can't reach the level of Miss Shi, so I deliberately stay cold in order to attract the attention of No. 1 Beauty. It's a small trick. When I was a child, the rest were..."
"But this guy also has his own skills. He is dressed in a coarse Tsing Yi. He is dressed for the general public. His face is not particularly white. If he doesn't pretend to be serious, how can he attract Miss Shi's attention?"
Lin Xi seemed oblivious and just nodded to Miss Shi. She frowned and seemed to be in a bad mood.
"I have spent all my money to buy tickets. If I want to gamble, I can only watch. How can I have the money to invite a group of people to come and watch?"
Peat!
If you don’t have money, then you don’t have money. You still say it so confidently. Don’t we all have little money?
Well...all the money was thrown into the betting pool.
Miss Shi smiled like a spring flower, and she almost collapsed on her seat.
"This... this is going to kill me. I can't help it anymore. After I go back, I want to stay in bed and wear my clothes wider. I want to never regret it. In my life, there will be no other woman in my eyes. Wuwuwu..."
"
The upper eyelashes of Miss Shi's big eyes blinked.
"Sir, whose family do you like? Which side do you want to bet on?"
Lin Xi leaned back on the chair and almost slipped out, her frustration was palpable.
"Beauty, call me fellow Taoist. And... what kind of young master am I? Are you as poor as me? Not because you are pretty, I would suspect that you are deliberately burying me..."
Miss Shi Emei frowned slightly, but she didn't feel dissatisfied.
But a group of non-commercial cultivators nearby couldn't stand Lin Xi's strong-willed cultivators and quit.
Each of them has a very high level, and they have made a lot of money over the years. They have a lot of prestige among casual cultivators, otherwise they would not be able to afford the seats closest to the duel stage.
"Boy, what are you talking about? Do you know who this lady is? The most beautiful girl in the capital of Smallpox, half a step into the Martial Emperor Realm, Miss Poet, how dare you speak disrespectfully and have a disrespectful attitude. Do you want to die?
"
A casual cultivator with the strength of the ninth-level Martial King Realm was suppressing Lin Xi with his momentum.
This kind of momentum, with a little bit of divine power, would make ordinary low-level martial arts practitioners be suppressed to the ground, or even fall to the ground, speechless.
However, for Lin Xi, this little bit of divine power was like a breeze blowing over his body, feeling nothing at all.
However, this is an offense, a threat, and bullying him in public.
Miss Shi did not like the behavior of this casual cultivator, because she knew that this casual cultivator deliberately bullied Lin Xi in order to please her.
However, Shi Hanyan did not speak for Lin Xi at this time, but glanced at the high-level casual cultivator lightly.
"What are you talking about? You think that the most beautiful person will like you? Are you thinking too much? You are almost 500 years old, and you still dare to miss the most beautiful person? Can the most beautiful person like you?
I simply don’t know what to say…”
boom!
The surrounding casual cultivators were in an uproar.
This ninth-level martial king who unleashed a little bit of divine power and wanted Lin Xi to make a fool of himself was Wu Yanqing, who was famous in the casual cultivator world!
However, didn’t Wu Dasanxiu insist that he was only one hundred and fifty years old?
Why does this kid say he is almost five hundred years old?
Wu Yanqing is from a foreign country, and no one knows how old he is. After becoming famous in the casual cultivator community, everyone knows that he is only one hundred and fifty years old.
Ninth level of Martial King Realm, one hundred and fifty years old, what is that but a genius?
This is Wu Yanqing's secret. Ordinary people would not tell the truth even if they were the person next to him.
He didn't know that Lin Xi had a kind of double night eye, which could easily tell his bone age.
At this time, he was exposed and became furious. He immediately jumped to his feet and roared.
"Who is five hundred years old? You are only five hundred years old, and your whole family is five hundred years old. Boy, if you dare to slander me, I will fight you in a duel!"
At this moment, a figure appeared here. Seeing the furious Wu Yanqing, he scolded him softly.
"You dare to yell in front of Miss Shi, are you tired of living? Get out!"
