Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 102 Dryad
In the luxury box, facing the circular building, there are no walls.

It is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, bright and transparent.

The terrain here is very high.

Standing in front of the window, looking down.

You can stand high above and look down at the circular building below.

"The faction, with the Divine University as its foundation, spans the entire prefecture. It is an immense force."

Gu Qi looked lazy and took a sip of coffee.

He leaned against the comfortable sofa, the hem of his black robe drooping. "The Qishen faction is the largest faction in Linjiang Prefecture."

In the huge room, there were only Jiang Jian and Gu Qi.

Jiang Jian remained silent.

He had some knowledge of factions.

Whether it is Liu Tiezhu or Yamaye.

All have said it before.

As long as you have the intention to practice.

In the second year, you must choose a faction to join.

Because of the special cultivation center, this precious and scarce resource.

Only students who join the faction are eligible to use it.

So when Jiang saw this, he had no resistance to joining the Qishen system.

Most of the time, the Qishen Department only accepts students who are good at "arts" and "martial arts".

This was also what happened in Guangling City.

Gu Qi discovered that Jiang Jian was a "skill" and took care of him slightly.

"Jiang Jian, you don't seem to be interested in factions."

Gu Qi sat up straight and clicked the ID device.

Countless black lights suddenly spread out from the floor-to-ceiling windows.

next moment.

It clearly shows two monsters fighting to the death.

The holographic projection was very realistic. The monster's angry roar, the dust raised on the ground, and the splattering blood and flesh all seemed to be right in front of him.

"Before they get here."

"Would you like to play a couple of rounds first?"

Gu Qi threw a screen over.

Jiang Jian caught the screen.

The five big words "Jiangcheng Martial Arts Arena" are clearly displayed on it.

"130th Tournament: White Wolf Monster, Hyena Spirit."

"Betting status: Betting ended."

"Your bet: None."

See here.

Jiang Jian swiped the screen.

A list of upcoming competitions suddenly appeared below.

"The 131st duel, the hanged ghost, the banyan tree spirit."

"Betting status: bet accepted."

"Your bet: None."

On the sofa, Gu Qi said, "To place a bet, you need to scan your ID card. Each bet is settled once."

He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the densely packed seats below.

"This is the paradise of Wuchongjiang City."

"Alliance coins are just numbers here."

"Many people became rich overnight."

"Many more people have lost everything, their families and children have been torn apart."

Jiang Jian thought for a moment and asked, "Don't you have any reference materials?"

Gu Qi smiled and said, "Of course not."

"The contestants here come from many places."

"They all participate voluntarily, and each time they participate, they can get a huge amount of Alliance Coins."

“Betting here depends entirely on your own judgment.”

He walked over to Jiang Jian and clicked on the hanged ghost.

Suddenly, a holographic image of a ghost appeared, vivid and lifelike.

"Jiang Jian, who do you think will win the next duel?"

Jiang Jian didn't answer immediately.

Swipe your finger and click on the banyan tree spirit.

The image of a gigantic dryad, waving vines, appeared in the hall.

"On a cursory observation."

Jiang Jian said, "The banyan tree spirit has a better chance of winning."

Gu Qi's eyes moved and he said, "Do you want to place a bet?"

Jiang Jian smiled and said, "Yes, but the one I'm betting on is a hanged ghost."

"why?"

Gu Qi asked, "You don't think there's a match-fixing incident, do you?"

"In the Jiangcheng Martial Arts Arena, fake matches are strictly prohibited."

"Countless pairs of red eyes are staring."

"Once discovered, they will be executed immediately."

"This is what the contestants signed in the agreement before they went on stage."

Jiang Jian shook his head: "That's not the case."

He pointed to the hanged man's nails.

"In fact, these holographic images already contain a lot of information."

"A hanged ghost, with very short nails and no strangulation marks on the neck. At first glance, it looks like a weak ghost."

"But the broken ends of its nails are as sharp as iron hooks and appear bluish-white."

"This shows that its ghost power is definitely not weak."

"And the banyan tree spirit."

Jiang Jian turned his head and looked sideways.

"He looks ferocious, but he's actually a scumbag."

"The vines are turning green and new buds are sprouting, which means it's only been a monster for a short time."

"The demon power will definitely not be high."

Gu Qi clapped his hands and smiled: "Jiang Jian, you have good eyesight."

"So, who are you going to bet on?"

Hear him ask.

Jiang Jian smiled but didn't answer.

Instead, he took out his ID and swiped it on the screen.

A gentle female voice sounded.

"Bet successful!"

"Your bet: 50 Alliance Coins!"

Jiang Jian’s betting records suddenly appeared at the bottom of the screen.

at the same time.

The competition in the arena has also been decided.

The white wolf monster transformed into its original form, flew up like a hill, and bit the hyena monster to death.

Amidst the earth-shaking cheers, countless gamblers, their eyes red, began placing their bets.

The next competition is about to begin.

"You can't stay in a place like this for too long."

Looking at those fanatical gamblers, Gu Qi sighed, "Win once, win twice, no problem."

"But as long as you lose once, your mentality will change immediately."

"If you're not careful, you'll lose everything."

While talking.

The hanged ghost and the banyan tree spirit have both appeared on stage one after another.

Jiang Jian walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down.

Standing in the box.

It seems like everyone can hear it.

The gamblers in the seats around were roaring wildly.

"Let me win, I'm betting it all!"

"I don't believe it anymore. Can I lose three times in a row?"

“All in!”

"Kill it!"

"I must win!"

……

The competition begins.

The banyan tree spirit had a ferocious face and surging demonic power. The heavy crown of the tree burst into light, directly enveloping the hanged ghost!

Suddenly, the cheers were deafening and resounded throughout the sky!

Click!

The next second, there was a shattering sound.

The hanged ghost's sharp nails tore through the restraints, and his body quickly penetrated, and his ten fingers extended into sharp blades, directly piercing the banyan tree spirit's head!

Blood spurted out!
The banyan tree spirit was bulky and swayed from side to side, as if it would fall at any moment.

This moment.

The hanged man's figure suddenly stopped strangely.

Even the sharp blades on his ten fingers shattered into pieces.

Take this opportunity.

The banyan tree spirit became ferocious, opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the hanged ghost in one gulp!

creak!

The sound of the monster chewing could be heard throughout the fighting arena.

Countless gamblers stood up suddenly, clenched their fists, and their eyes were as red as blood!

Even more people were cheering and clicking the screen frantically to check their Alliance Coins.

"Jiang Jian, you seem to have made a wrong bet."

Gu Qi chuckled, "50 Alliance Coins, just gone like that."

Jiang Jian looked calm, opened the screen and clicked the receive button.

Suddenly, mechanical sounds filled the room.

"Based on the real-time odds, you received betting returns and betting rewards totaling 135 million Alliance Coins, which have been transferred to your citizen account."

Hear sounds.

Gu Qi's smile froze.

He stood up and walked over to take the screen from Jiang Jian's hand.

The betting information above is clearly displayed.

"The 131st duel, the hanged ghost, the banyan tree spirit."

“Staking Status: Merger Rewards Returned.”

"Your bet: 50 Alliance coins, Banyan Tree Spirit wins."

Gu Qi put down the screen and turned his head to look at Jiang Jian.

"Jiang Jian, you really are a hidden talent."

While talking.

A prompt sounded on the identity device.

"Your account has received a transfer: 1350000 Alliance Coins."

"Your balance: 3837609 Alliance Coins."

Hear the prompt.

Jiang Jian crossed out the message.

The current balance is 383 million Alliance Coins.

"Jiang Jian, let's play one more round."

Gu Qi said.

Jiang Jian shook his head gently and said, "I don't want to play anymore."

Gu Qi raised his eyebrows: "Why, are you afraid of losing?"

Jiang Jian said, "If you keep playing, you will definitely lose."

Gu Qi was silent for a moment, then asked, "You just analyzed that the Hanged Ghost is stronger."

"That's right."

"But why did you bet on the banyan tree spirit instead?"

Jiang Jian smiled and said, "Because I think the competition is a sham."

Gu Qi's eyes moved slightly.

Jiang Jian walked to the window and pointed at the audience seats below.

"With such a large gambling platform, there will definitely be fake matches."

Gu Qi said: "Why are you so sure?"

"Besides, many people are betting, including some from prominent families."

"Are they all fools? Can't they see that the match is rigged?"

Jiang Jian shook his head: "No, they can see it."

"Most people can guess that there is a match-fixing."

"What they can't guess is who will win as a result of the match-fixing."

"so."

“They’re gambling, too.”

"The contestant who places his own bet is the predetermined winner."

"That's easy to understand."

Jiang Jian put away the ID device and sat back on the sofa. "If you win the bet, you can still get the Alliance Coins."

Gu Qi was amazed and said, "Not only did he stop after winning the money, but he also understood the rules of the fighting arena so thoroughly. Jiang Jian is really amazing."

While talking.

People wearing faction clothes walked into the room one after another.

Most of these people are third-year students at Linjiang Academy.

There are a few sophomores in a few.

Among the first-year students, only Jiang sees himself.

"Jiang Jian, I have long heard of your great name."

Someone came forward with a smile on his face, "37% of the cultivation level of the God-Given Realm is almost catching up with us."

Someone else took out an ID device, greeted Jiang Jianyou friendly, and exchanged communication information.

A little while.

Jiang Jian now has more than ten new friends on his contact list.
