Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 469: A Classic Gamble!

"You can't do anything!"

The Phoenix God retorted mercilessly, "With Ma Hongjun's current strength, what can he possibly do?"

Not to mention that Ma Hongjun can't do anything, even he, the Phoenix God, a second-level god, can't do it!

As if remembering something, the Phoenix God added, "Not to mention protection!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun went into a frenzy, his eyes turning bloodshot.

He's not as good as Zhongli, he admits it.

But he really couldn't accept Xiao Feilian, who was much better!

Without using Zhong Li as a backdrop, Xiao Feilian was no match for Ma Hongjun, the inheritor of the divine power, and even had to yield to him.

"ah!!!"

Ma Hongjun let out a long howl, questioning the Phoenix God, "Why, why are you so weak?!"

Yes, Ma Hongjun began to question why the Phoenix God, who had passed on his power and divine position, was so weak!

If the Phoenix God were stronger, if the Phoenix God were also a God-King level powerhouse, how could he have endured such humiliation today?

Faced with the mentally unstable Ma Hongjun, the Phoenix God fell into a rare silence.

He had never even heard of a "talent" like Ma Hongjun before, let alone seen one.

Good heavens, he's questioning why the person who passed on his divine position to him is so weak??

This guy is such an ingrate! No wonder he gets along so well with Tang San.

"Boy, I'm passing the throne to you out of respect for Shura, not because you're qualified to inherit my divine position."

The Phoenix God said coldly. He had never said this explicitly before, and had spoken rather cryptically, but today he had laid his cards on the table.

"Until you surpass my strength, you have no right to say I am weak."

To call such weak and pathetic humans weak is clearly a sign of madness!

"There are five experts at the God-King Realm."

"The number of first-level god-level experts does not exceed 20."

"I am a peak level two god, and there are very few beings in the entire world who can surpass me..."

"But you just happened to offend those very few people..."

At this point, even the Phoenix God laughed in anger. To be honest, Ma Hongjun really knew how to cause trouble.

Ma Hongjun's eyelids twitched, his mouth opened slightly, he seemed about to say something but then fell silent.

What could he do? He was desperate too!

"If you don't want to inherit the divine position, just say so. I'm not really willing to pass it on to you either. If you refuse now, you still have a chance to change your mind."

The Phoenix God said impatiently. He had lost patience with Ma Hongjun. If the other party voluntarily gave up his divine position, he could choose a new successor.

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun was slightly taken aback and looked somewhat bewildered, but his clenched fists revealed that he was not at peace.

After a long pause, he ultimately did not utter a word of refusal.

If he loses his divine position now, will any god still take notice of him?

Seeing this, the Phoenix God did not dwell on the matter any longer and said, "Since you want to accept the divine position, then you should apologize quickly. This is an existence you cannot afford to offend."

"An apology is impossible. I'd rather die than apologize."

Ma Hongjun said with a determined look.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he clenched his fists, his back teeth almost grinding to powder, and continued, "I couldn't protect Shrek Academy before, and I can't protect it now, but I don't want to be a coward anymore!"

Ma Hongjun spoke these words sincerely; that was truly what he thought. As a god, the Phoenix God could sense it.

Upon hearing this, the Phoenix God fell into deep thought. Seeing Ma Hongjun at this moment, he seemed to see his younger self, when he was full of vigor and looked down on everyone.

Moreover, Ma Hongjun's spirit is admirable, but it's a pity he chose sides...

"Sigh~"

The Phoenix God sighed inwardly, then spoke again, "Good, very spirited!"

"If you survive this time, I will acknowledge you!"

Ma Hongjun's indomitable spirit, though somewhat foolish, embodies the ambition of a phoenix. Facing a formidable enemy, he did not back down but instead decided to face death.

If Ma Hongjun survives, it's not impossible to accept him.

"???"

Ma Hongjun was puzzled. Why would the Phoenix God, who had been urging him to escape, suddenly change his attitude?

"What, you don't understand?"

Seeing this, the Phoenix God did not hide anything and said directly, "Hehe, although the gap is huge, I am indeed afraid, but your spirit of dying without regret is in line with the characteristics of the phoenix's rebirth."

"Besides, the will of the inheritor does not represent the will of the gods, and I certainly won't offend them."

"..."

Ma Hongjun was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized what was going on.

"I will survive!"

"I will survive!"

Almost simultaneously, Dai Mubai spoke.

Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai exchanged a glance, initially somewhat confused, then smiled at each other, as if they understood why the other had said that.

"Kid, your personality is somewhat like that of a war god. Even if you fail in the future, it will still be a way to elevate this godhood."

"Let's try our best to survive. I really hope that the God of War can reach the level of a chief god!"

A first-level god is a chief god, but the God of War is only a second-level god.

Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai exchanged another glance, nodded, their eyes filled with determination.

In a short while, the two men looked at the woman in front of them almost simultaneously, their fighting spirit soaring.

Dai Mubai extended his right hand, pointing his index finger at Xiao Feilian, and said with boundless pride, "Xiao Feilian, do you dare to make a bet with us!"

It's common knowledge that Shrek Academy is addicted to gambling; for them, gambling seems to be just a very normal thing.

Starting a few years ago, they lost every time they gambled, and basically never won. But the gambler's mentality ingrained in their bones made them unable to stop gambling.

What if...we win?

In the past, as partners of the "Chosen One," they also carried a lot of luck, and might actually have won.

But the consciousness of the plane had long since stopped paying attention to them, let alone having any luck to protect them. They were already lucky to have survived the misfortune.

This is a gamble that is destined to be lost.

Hearing this, Xiao Feilian remained unfazed. Facing two level 92 titled Douluo, she remained remarkably calm.

The gap between her and the class of '92 is just too big, too big.

Her red lips parted slightly, and she slowly uttered a few words.

"You are not worthy."

Yes, these two inheritors of divine power are not worthy of betting against her at all; it is an unfair bet.

How could Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai understand the meaning behind Xiao Feilian's words?

Isn't this blatant provocation?

"We are indeed not as strong as you!"

"You're not even brave enough to bet against us?!"

Ma Hongjun used a provocation tactic, looking at Xiao Feilian with disdain.

This was a blatant attempt to provoke him; he knew that a genius woman like Xiao Feilian could never...

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I disdain it. Make your move."

Okay, Xiao Feilian isn't buying it at all!
