Imperial City Ruins, opportunities refreshed daily

Chapter 107: Life and death have been signed, only one person survives

"Why avoid it!?"

Xu Hao responded nonchalantly.

Why wouldn't he want the commander position that he could get for free?

And now that he has obtained the position of commander, if he continues to search for opportunities, he may obtain extremely rare treasures.

Even if his cultivation is only half a step to the Heavenly Stage, the treasure he is looking for may still be of the Heavenly Stage, but the level inside the core is different.

For example, the spiritual level is a spiritual level, but due to the erosion of time, it is only a heavenly level.

A core of this high grade is exactly what Xu Hao needs, as it can allow him to quickly achieve an innate physical body.

Anyone who wants to prevent him from becoming the commander of such a promising position is his enemy.

"You! Are you really obsessed with power?" Tang Wan'er was furious when she heard Xu Hao's answer.

Are you willing to risk your life just for an official position?

The key point is that in her eyes, Xu Hao was simply here to die.

"Even if that's the case!" Xu Hao didn't explain and said directly, "Besides, I'm already here. It's impossible for me to give up, so don't try to persuade me!"

"Oh!" Tang Wan'er sighed.

She knew that it was useless to say anything, and she had no ability to rescue Xu Hao.

Now all she can do is to provide Xu Hao with the greatest possible safety measures.

Tang Wan'er turned her head to look at the crowd around her, and immediately opened her robe.

"You..." Xu Hao looked at Tang Wan'er in astonishment.

I have to say that Tang Wan'er is still very attractive.

When the loose brocade robe of the Zhenfu Division was opened, his true appearance was revealed.

It is true that I cannot see the true face of Mount Lu because I am already in it.

"What are you looking at!" Tang Wan'er blushed immediately when she saw Xu Hao's staring eyes.

She did this because she wanted to give the treasure to Xu Hao without letting others see it.

As a result, Xu Hao misunderstood her and even stared at her as if he wanted to eat her.

"Oh, what are you doing?" Xu Hao smiled awkwardly, but his eyes still did not move away.

Because there were no covers in the feudal ancient society, only belly bands and the like.

Perhaps because Tang Wan'er was in a hurry to leave, or perhaps because the weather was hot, she was not wearing thick clothes, so after opening her Zhenfusi brocade robe, everything was visible.

Tang Wan'er saw Xu Hao staring at her intently, and after a hateful look, she carefully took out a small silk garment from the side of her robe and whispered, "This is the Ninth Princess's inner armor. I'll give it to you temporarily. It's enough to keep you alive. Don't die!"

Xu Hao took the still warm silk inner armor in a daze, and couldn't help but reveal a strange look.

Was this thing pulled out from the Ninth Princess?

But what is the use of this inner armor?
Xu Hao lowered his head and looked at the light inner armor in his hand. He immediately opened the chance divination panel in his mind to check.

[Golden silk underwear, made of ancient spiritual-grade golden silk, crudely crafted with only one or two array patterns engraved on it, Heavenly Grade.]

Xu Hao took a deep breath when he saw the information presented.

This thing is essentially spiritual.

It's just because of the poor weaving method that it fails to reflect the material properties of the spiritual grade and even reduces its original grade.

Now it’s just the Heavenly Stage.

However, from this point on, Xu Hao believed what Tang Wan'er said.

This thing was really taken from the Ninth Princess.

Even when he got close to it, Xu Hao could smell a unique body fragrance from it.

At first he thought it was from Tang Wan'er, but after smelling it carefully, he found that most of the fragrance was different from the fragrance on Tang Wan'er.

"What are you doing?" Tang Wan'er looked at Xu Hao taking a unique breath and was suddenly shocked.

The ninth princess Xuan Qingxiao lamented that Xu Hao was a rare talent, so she temporarily took out her protective inner armor and gave it to Xu Hao.

As a result, Xu Hao actually dared to blaspheme.

Tang Wan'er quickly turned her head and looked towards the platform.

She felt relieved when she saw what the Ninth Princess was talking about with the First Prince.

"Sorry!" Xu Hao knew his behavior was a bit rude, but he nodded and said, "Thank the Ninth Princess for me."

It has to be said that in this fight, even his inner armor was contributed, so Xu Hao felt that verbal thanks were still due.

"Put it on quickly. If you are defeated in the ring, admit defeat and the Ninth Princess will save your life!" Tang Wan'er said quickly.

Xu Hao nodded, but didn't listen.

Give up?

How could he, who is half a step away from the Heavenly Realm, admit defeat to someone on the Earthly Ranking? Wouldn't that be a reversal of the Heavenly Realm?
"You are still too young. Sometimes you should not be so impulsive. You can win countless times, but if you lose once, it will be purgatory!" Tang Wan'er reminded again.

Xu Hao should be more cautious in the future, so as not to be provoked into taking on a battle that he cannot bear.

Being young and energetic is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!" Xu Hao said without hesitation.

He covered his inner armor with his robe and began to put it on.

Although he was 120% sure, he would still be willing to do so if he could have an extra layer of security.

"Oh, right!" After Xu Hao finished dressing, he immediately turned to look at Tang Wan'er, "My gambling money is still with you, right?"

"Why, do you want it now?" Tang Wan'er nodded.

Xu Hao quickly said, "No, there may be more bets today. Can you help me bet all the money on me to win?"

"What?" Tang Wan'er couldn't help but ask again because she had misheard, "You win?"

"Yes, my odds must be very high. With so much money, I will definitely make a fortune!" Xu Hao looked excited.

"You have a fever and are confused?" After Tang Wan'er made sure she heard clearly, she couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke Xu Hao's forehead, trying to confirm whether Xu Hao had caught a cold and was talking nonsense.

That’s the seventh on the Earth List!

She also received news that the eldest prince had given some kind of heavenly-grade magical weapon to Zhao Chenggao.

This is also why she is so pessimistic.

Even the Ninth Princess Xuan Qingxiao felt that Xu Hao would not win. In order to save Xu Hao's life, she even took out her inner armor.

Now Xu Hao tells her that he is sure to win?

Are you kidding me?
Now there are still people who think Xu Hao will win. There is no one else except Xu Hao himself!
"Bet on me to win. If you also want to place a bet, there is absolutely no problem in betting on me to win!" Xu Hao said confidently.

Tang Wan'er took a deep breath and asked, "Are you really sure? That's tens of thousands of snowflake silver."

Xu Hao nodded, "Of course, definitely. Go ahead. The competition is almost here. If you don't get out now, you'll have no chance!"

"Okay, don't blame me if you lose!" Tang Wan'er gritted her teeth and agreed.

Anyway, the money belongs to Xu Hao, so it has nothing to do with her if he loses it.

Tang Wan'er stood up, looking back every few steps. She wanted to check the changes in Xu Hao's luck, but she didn't know what was going on. She couldn't see any changes today.

In the end, Tang Wan'er had no choice but to leave.

Time slips away slowly.

The sun is shining brightly today.

Xu Hao sat beside the arena. He had originally expected a passive divination-style draw to happen today.

It turned out not to be.

This suggests there won't be any risk this time.

Xu Hao immediately felt relieved.

Come to think of it, he is almost at the Heavenly Rank, who else in the entire Great Xuan Dynasty can threaten him?
Even if it is a strong man of the heavenly level, Xu Hao has the confidence to fight against him.

With his acquired body, and with the blessing of various special features, his physical fitness may not be worse than that of some heavenly-level strongmen.

After all, the core of martial arts is the body.

A stick of incense later, Tang Wan'er came back with a few more bail tickets in her hand.

Everyone bet on Xu Hao to win, and the odds were extremely high.

The worst case is 10 to 1.

There are even extreme ratios of one to one hundred.

That is to say, they all limit the betting amount, otherwise, Tang Wan'er would bet all her money on this ratio.

"Here is your betting ticket!" Tang Wan'er handed the ticket to Xu Hao.

"Let me put it here with you first!" Xu Hao said.

"Don't! These forces are very involved. Even I wouldn't be able to collect the deposit!" Tang Wan'er said softly, "You should collect it yourself.

If you lose, then neither of you owes anyone anything, just pretend nothing happened.

If you win, your strength will be unimaginable. Even those forces behind you won't dare to cheat, so it's better for you to keep it yourself!"

"Well!" Xu Hao thought about it and knew that this was the case.

The amount is too large.

Many forces will refuse to pay their debts.

Only with a strong background and powerful strength can this money be recovered.

Xu Hao took the betting ticket and looked at the odds on it, feeling relieved.

This is a bet of more than 70,000 taels of silver. If he wins this arena fight, he can definitely make a profit of over one million taels of silver.

The commander has power and can earn millions of taels of silver.

You can lie down comfortably and enjoy your life.

As long as the energy of heaven and earth does not recover so quickly, Xu Hao can enjoy many years of peace and stability.

When he thought of this, Xu Hao became excited and couldn't wait to go to the ring and have a great fight.

"The time has come!" Just when Xu Hao was getting a little impatient, the master of ceremonies made an announcement and the originally lively environment suddenly became quiet.

Then, everyone looked at the ring with bated breath.

"It's started, ninth sister. Don't cry if you lose!" The eldest prince continued to tease.

This time, he had the upper hand, and even his usually indifferent ninth sister Xuan Qingxiao did not deliberately refute or scold him.

This made the eldest prince feel satisfied.

Whoosh.

At the moment the master of ceremonies' announcement rang out, a figure whooshed and turned into a stream of light, rushing towards the stage.

The next second, a middle-aged man in a green robe appeared on the stage.

Taoist system, Zhao Chenggao.

As soon as he landed on the ring, he exuded a powerful aura and pressure.

Taoism is about practicing Qi, and reaching the peak of the ninth level of Qi training is the ultimate acquired achievement.

Moreover, Taoism is one with heaven and earth. Just standing there, it seems as if it is about to merge into heaven and earth, and be connected to the great trends of heaven and earth.

The thin energy around him vaguely surrounded Zhao Chenggao.

This is the special authority of Taoism, which can connect the surrounding energy and prevent people from other systems from pulling in energy.

Only the strong men of Confucianism and Taoism can speak the law of heaven. Otherwise, no one can compete with the strong men of Taoism.

"As expected of number seven on the Earth Ranking, with this level of magnanimity, I'm sure to win this time!"

"Yeah, I lost a lot of money last time! I must make it back this time!"

"Yes, how many moves do you think Xu Hao can withstand?"

"A few moves, I'm afraid he'll be defeated in just one. I once had the honor of seeing a warrior from the top 50 of the Earth Ranking take action. With just one move, he beheaded the leader of a group of bandits, leaving him no chance to fight back!"

"Yes, some of the top ten on the Earth Ranking are not ordinary people."

Amidst the discussions all around, Xu Hao calmly took steady steps onto the stage.

Then, standing in a corner of the arena, he looked calmly ahead at Zhao Chenggao, who was ranked seventh on the Earth List.

"I can give you a chance. If you admit defeat, you can still survive. Otherwise, you will die!" Zhao Chenggao showed a high attitude and looked at Xu Hao as if he was looking at an ant.

The reason why he said this was to give face to the Ninth Princess Xuan Qingxiao.

Secondly, it establishes an image of righteousness, so that even if Xu Hao is killed by accident later, it will be reasonable and logical.

As the saying goes, when decorating a storefront, be polite before using force.

After saying all the nice things, if Xu Hao can't leave the ring, it's not his fault.

Xu Hao just glanced at him sideways and said nothing.

The other party sees him as an ant, so isn't he the same?
Now, we are just waiting to sign the life and death agreement and then the competition will begin.

Xu Hao's contemptuous look immediately made Zhao Chenggao feel a little embarrassed.

He is ranked seventh on the Earth List.

Even some Heavenly Rank experts would be polite to him, and even the eldest prince would treat him with courtesy, just because he was a potential dragon seedling of the Heavenly Rank.

No one knows when he will be able to reach the Heavenly Rank.

He admitted that Xu Hao on the opposite side had some talent, but without a growing genius, he was just like an ant.

"You two, sign this life-or-death agreement!" The master of ceremonies came up and first came to Zhao Chenggao and unfolded a life-or-death agreement.

Zhao Chenggao hummed, and without any hesitation, he picked up the brush in the plate, dipped some ink in it, and quickly signed his name.

"It's your turn!" Zhao Chenggao looked at Xu Hao coldly.

He did not even try to disguise himself or reveal the image of a Taoist master.

Now, he just wanted to kill Xu Hao as soon as possible, then take out his soul and condense it into a potion resource to nourish himself.

The master of ceremonies led the crowd to Xu Hao and laid out the life and death statement.

Xu Hao did not sign it immediately, but instead scanned the contents of the death certificate to ensure there were no loopholes.

After reading it for a while and making sure that there was nothing hidden, Xu Hao picked up the brush beside him without hesitation, dipped it in ink, and wrote his name.

"The deal has been signed, life or death is irrelevant, in this competition, only one person will be the winner!" the master of ceremonies announced.

As soon as the words fell, the Ninth Princess Xuan Qingxiao stood up from her seat on the high platform, stared at the eldest prince, and scolded him, "You changed the rules of the flag-grabbing competition?"

Fists and feet have no eyes, and life and death are unpredictable, but you can admit defeat and be defeated.

But now, the life and death lottery actually says that the winner is the king, so doesn’t it mean that the winner must be determined?
"Ninth sister, why are you so impatient? This is not like you!" The eldest prince smiled calmly and said, "Besides, Xu Hao saw it and signed it with his own hands. I didn't force him! Hahahaha..."
