The entire audience was silent!
Everyone looked up at the projection in the sky and couldn’t help feeling like they were dreaming.
Yu Luocha had been destroyed!
First on the Earth List, the woman who was only a step away from breaking through to the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage and had been known as an invincible existence below the Open Heaven Stage, had been defeated in a single exchange!
The one who destroyed her was an unknown Yang Kai!
How was this possible?
How could there be such nonsense in this world?
Countless people were desperately rubbing their eyes and pinching their thighs, hoping that all of this was just an illusion, but in reality, the scene in front of them was clear and real.
Yu Luocha had really been destroyed by this Yang Kai. In the face of her opponent’s violent attacks, it was as if she didn’t have the slightest ability to fight back. From the beginning of the battle until now, it had only been ten breaths of time.
In one of the private rooms, the Black, Green, and White clothes Young Masters who had just spoken to Yang Kai stared at the Asura Arena with wide eyes, their mouths agape.
After a while, the black-robed young master suddenly cried out in alarm, turning his head and shouting angrily, “Why are you pinching me!?”
The white-robed young master said dejectedly, “Let me see if I’m dreaming!”
The green-robed young master wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, “This Senior Brother… is actually so fierce?”
Recalling how the three of them had tried to persuade Yang Kai to hold on for a while longer, they couldn’t help shuddering.
In another private room, Pei Buwan’s butt fell onto a chair and his entire body seemed to have been drained of all strength. His face also became incomparably pale as he muttered, “It’s over, it’s over, it’s over, my ten million Open Heaven Pills!” As he finished speaking, he reached out and clutched his chest, his heart aching so much that he couldn’t breathe.
Yue He coldly snorted, “Serves you right!”
Yue He naturally didn’t have a good impression of this Hundred Refining Hall's shopkeeper who had bet ten million on Yang Kai’s defeat.
Inside the Asura Arena, Yang Kai slowly stood up, reached out his hand, and brushed his hair back before lowering his head to look at the unconscious Yu Luocha on the ground, a satisfied smile appearing on his face, “This pretty little face isn’t covered in mud, I’m indeed someone who has tender feelings for women.”
His words were transmitted out of the Asura Arena by the light of the Formation, allowing everyone to hear him clearly. Although his tone was very gentle, it caused countless people to feel a chill.
Before this battle, the entire Star City thought that Yu Luocha was the strongest below Open Heaven Stage, and if one is not Open Heaven Stage, no one would be her opponent.
However, within ten breaths of time, Yang Kai had knocked out this future Asura Heaven Star.
If Yu Luocha was the strongest below Open Heaven Stage, then what was Yang Kai?
What’s more, with such a violent and fierce attack that seemed like it would swallow Yu Luocha alive, there was no such thing as showing mercy to the fairer sex, right? Saying such words, how thick was his skin?
“Sneak attack, you actually launched a sneak attack, how shameless!” In the Asura Arena, a roar suddenly burst out, appearing especially abrupt in the quiet arena!
In the next moment, many people responded, many of them called Yang Kai despicable and shameless, actually launching a vicious sneak attack, otherwise Yu Luocha would not have been so vulnerable.
Yang Kai’s cold eyes swept over them as he cursed, “A bunch of trash. If you’re willing to bet, you must admit your defeat. Now you’ve lost so much that your pants are gone, right? Hahahaha.”
He let out a deranged laugh, causing the crowd in the stands to become excited, wanting nothing more than to rush out and tear him to pieces.
However, just as Yang Kai had said, this battle had caused countless people to lose their property. After all, before the battle began, no one had been optimistic about Yang Kai’s chances, and almost ninety-nine percent of the people who had bet on Yu Luocha had lost.
Although the odds were a bit lower, as the black-clothed young master had said, there was a lot of pressure and a lot of compensation.
However, in just ten breaths of time, Yang Kai had used his violent strength to throw their beautiful dreams into the abyss, so it was no wonder people were calling him despicable.
Strictly speaking, Yang Kai had not launched a sneak attack. He had only taken action after hearing the beginning of the battle call, so how could he possibly have done so?
However, some people were unwilling to accept their defeat, so they decided to push the blame onto him.
It was only now that the voice explaining the rules suddenly rang out, sounding extremely dry, “In this battle, Yang Kai win!”
In the next instant, a man rushed into the battlefield and arrived in front of Yu Luocha, reaching out to check her breathing. After confirming that Yu Luocha had only fainted and was fine, he relaxed.
Grabbing Yu Luocha by the waist, the man raised his head and glared fiercely at Yang Kai before quickly leaving.
Yang Kai rubbed his nose, knowing that he was in the limelight now. The one who had taken Yu Luocha away should be Asura Heaven’s disciple. Yu Luocha was a golden signboard of the Asura Arena, so now that he had smashed this signboard into smithereens, it would be strange if others didn’t hate him.
He didn’t want to be in the limelight, but Yu Luocha was a stubborn person. If he didn’t let her experience what despair was, he was afraid she would become entangled with him in the future.
However, Asura Heaven was after all one of the 36 Cave Heaven, and this Asura Arena is one of Asura Heaven’s most important industries. Even if Asura Heaven’s people didn’t like him, they probably wouldn’t use any underhanded methods.
It wasn’t that there was no precedent of Asura Heaven’s disciples being beaten to death in the Asura Arena. Asura Heaven had never tried to settle accounts with them over such a trivial matter. If one’s skills weren’t good enough, they deserved to be beaten to death.
Countless cultivators in the stands were still cursing at him, but Yang Kai couldn’t be bothered to pay any attention to them and simply walked out of the exit. At the exit, the old man who had led him in just now stared at him as if he had seen a ghost, his attitude much more polite than before.
Returning to the resting room, Yang Kai saw Pei Buwan sitting there in a daze and couldn’t help laughing, “Why is Shopkeeper Pei acting like this? It’s just a million Open Heaven Pills, it’s just a waste of some money.”
Pei Buwan grit his teeth and said, “What one million? It’s ten million, ten million!”
“Shopkeeper Pei is so bold!” Yang Kai said mockingly. When he asked before, Pei Buwan only raised his finger and didn’t say the exact number. Yang Kai thought it was one million, but who knew it was ten million.
“Brother Yang, I’ve been harmed by you!” Pei Buwan’s face was scrunched up so tightly that he was about to cry, “Since you have such ability, why didn’t you tell Old Brother before? If I had known earlier, I would have bet on you.”
Yang Kai said in surprise, “When I asked Yue He to place her bet, wasn’t that the best hint? It’s just that Shopkeeper Pei doesn’t believe me, so why are you blaming me?”
Pei Buwan was speechless. Now that he thought about it, since Yang Kai had so much courage to bet on him winning, how could he not have confidence? It was just that Yu Luocha's image of being invincible was too deeply ingrained in his heart, so he simply couldn’t believe it.
A great opportunity to make a fortune was right in front of him, but he had failed to seize it…
After all, the odds were one to ten!
Pei Buwan raised his hand and ruthlessly slapped himself, feeling a sharp pain in his chest and almost unable to breathe.
As they were talking, a manager of the Asura Arena walked in, looked at Yang Kai, and then at Pei Buwan, who looked like his parents had died, and nodded, “Little Pei is also here.”
Pei Buwan suppressed his grief and quickly stood up, “Old Zhou!”
Old Zhou asked, “You lost? Since you’re together with this Yang nephew, how could you lose?”
Pei Buwan felt as if he had been struck by lightning and remained silent, feeling as if someone had opened his wound and poured salt on it…
Old Zhou ignored him and simply cupped his fists towards Yang Kai, “Nephew Yang!”
Although Yang Kai didn’t know him, he still followed Pei Buwan’s words and cupped his fists, “Old Zhou!”
Old Zhou smiled, “Today’s battle has truly opened this old master’s eyes!”
Yang Kai politely replied, “Old Zhou is too kind, I was just lucky!”
Old Zhou looked at him meaningfully, “Being able to defeat Yu Luocha within ten breaths isn’t a fluke. My Asura Heaven’s disciples aren’t so easily defeated. If any random person can defeat my Asura Heaven’s disciples, then my Asura Heaven is no longer one of the 36 Cave Heaven.”
Yang Kai asked, “Why has Old Zhou come here?”
Old Zhou handed over a Space Ring and said, “Before the battle began, you bet a hundred million Open Heaven Pills on yourself, right? This is your bet and profit.”
Yang Kai immediately took the ring and scanned it with his Divine Sense before suddenly asking in surprise, “This number seems to be a bit too much?”
Including his capital of a hundred million, the Asura Arena should have given him 1.1 billion Open Heaven Pills. Such a large amount of Open Heaven Pills was not something any random force could afford. Only a place like Asura Arena, where there were countless Open Heaven Pill entering and exiting every day, could afford it.
But what surprised Yang Kai was that the Open Heaven Pill in this ring seemed to be more than 1.1 billion.
“1.2 billion!” Old Zhou said.
Yang Kai was puzzled, “Why is there an extra hundred million?”
Old Man Zhou smiled and said, “Nephew’s strength is not to be trifled with. In the future, your name will definitely be famous. This old master will not beat around the bush with you. The extra one hundred million will be my Asura Arena’s compensation.”
“Compensate for what?”
“Nephew, please do not set foot in any Star City’s Asura Arena again!” Old Man Zhou said bluntly.
Yang Kai couldn’t help blinking.
However, he soon understood Old Zhou’s intentions. Today, he had displayed a terrifying combat strength capable of crushing anyone below the Open Heaven Stage. If he were to step into the Asura Arena again in the future, no one would be his opponent. At that time, everyone would only need to bet on him to win, so how could the Asura Arena earn money?
The Asura Arena was one of Asura Heaven’s most important foundations, providing Asura Heaven with a large number of Open Heaven Pills. If Asura Heaven's Asura Arena continued to suffer losses, then Asura Heaven’s days would not be easy.
Old Zhou naturally had to consider the future.
However, to take out a hundred million as compensation right from the start, it was clear that the Asura Arena’s side was rich and bold!
On the side, Pei Buwan was also somewhat dumbfounded. In his memory, this was the first time the Asura Arena had offered such generous conditions for a cultivator. After all, this is one of the 36 Cave Heaven. In the whole Outer Universe, other than the other forces in the Cave Heaven Paradise, what need was there to give face to others?
Asura Heaven has such qualifications.
