Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Brother, I'm betting ten million high-grade spirit stones, not a penny more, not a penny less!"

Lu Feng pushed through the crowd and then cupped his hands in greeting to a bald cultivator opposite him, who seemed to be the bookmaker for this betting event.

"Ten million?!"

"Is this guy out of his mind?"

"Judging from this person's age and attire, he doesn't seem to be a scion of any major clan. Instead, he appears to be an unknown rogue cultivator. Where did he get so many elemental stones?"

When they discovered that the person who placed the bet was actually a young man like Lu Feng, everyone around was extremely surprised and started discussing it.

After all, a full ten million high-grade spirit stones is no small sum; even some experts in the Profound Gang Realm might not be able to afford it!

"Young man, are you really going to bet ten million?"

Also feeling a bit surprised, the bald cultivator in charge of opening the betting couldn't help but probe, "Brother, let me warn you beforehand, the rules of the Dragon Arena have always been that once you place your bet, it's over. If you bet on the wrong opponent and end up losing everything, don't blame me for not warning you..."

"That's natural."

Lu Feng nodded slightly, his face still full of confidence.

"Young man, may I ask which arena match you'd like to bet on?"

Seeing Lu Feng's confidence, the bald cultivator didn't waste any more words and immediately asked again.

"Jade Arena, Duan Renzhi, undefeated."

Lu Feng said unhurriedly.

"Complete, complete victory?!"

Upon hearing this, the bald cultivator was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly pulled out a roster from his robes and flipped through it, his expression growing increasingly astonished. "Duan Renzhi, one of the rogue cultivators from the outside world, with a cultivation level of the fourth level of the Yuanhai Realm, is currently challenging the highest difficulty level of the Emerald Arena... the Bloodbath Path!"

His gaze swept quickly across the roster, and after reading the records of Duan Renzhi's matches, the bald cultivator's mouth gaped wider and wider, his eyes filled with shock.

"This kid not only bet ten million on himself to win every time? He's also going to challenge the most difficult Bloodbath Road on the Jade Arena...!"

At this moment, even the bald cultivator couldn't help but feel a little curious about Lu Feng's background.

After all, the opponent was only at the fourth level of the Yuanhai Realm, yet he dared to bet ten million on a complete victory, and on the most difficult Bloodbath Path of the Jade Arena. This move was tantamount to courting death, throwing away both money and his life!

"Thank you for your trouble, brother."

After placing his heavy bet, Lu Feng didn't linger. He simply cupped his hands slightly and turned to walk towards the arena not far away, seemingly eager to stretch his muscles.

"Wait a minute, young man!"

Upon seeing this, the bald cultivator was taken aback for a moment, then quickly explained, "According to the betting rules of the Dragon Arena, 20% of the deposit must be deducted from each bet, regardless of the final outcome. You haven't paid your spirit stones deposit yet...!"

After all, these bookmakers mainly make money from deposits. If the deposits are gone, wouldn't they have worked for nothing?

"That won't be necessary."

Looking back at the bald cultivator again, Lu Feng said in his usual unhurried tone, "Anyway, I'll win in the end. As for that part of the deposit, you can just deduct it from the bet."

After saying that, Lu Feng ignored the bald cultivator and leaped into the air, landing steadily on one of the jade arenas.

"this....!"

Upon hearing this, the bald cultivator was somewhat bewildered.

Because this isn't just simple confidence; it's practically a scheme to get something for nothing!

"You dare to gamble even without money?"

"And this kid is betting on his complete victory? Where does he get his confidence from?"

"With a mere fourth-level Yuanhai Realm cultivation, he dares to challenge the Bloodbath Path, the most difficult challenge on the Emerald Arena? This kid is simply courting death!"

"Hmph, young people these days are too arrogant and conceited, they simply don't know their own limitations...!"

Seeing that Lu Feng couldn't even afford the deposit, yet dared to challenge the most difficult Bloodbath Path on the Jade Arena, the spectators around who had placed bets were also discussing among themselves, their faces showing disdain, clearly not optimistic about the former.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the arena was thick with tension.

"Guan Que, the Vice Leader of the Floating Cloud Gang in Jinling City, also known as 'Ghost Hand,' humbly requests your guidance...!"

Seeing Lu Feng leap onto the stage, a middle-aged man in a blue robe on the opposite side of the arena also slightly raised his eyelids, then bowed slightly, as if he were Lu Feng's first opponent on the path to the Blood Battle.

However, in response to Guan Que's humble bow, Lu Feng closed his eyes in deep thought, showing no reaction whatsoever, as if he were completely lost in thought and no longer on the arena.

Because all he could think about right now was the odds, and Lu Feng's odds were also very high, a full one to three!

In other words, as long as Lu Feng can win all the challenges on the Bloodbath Road, even after deducting 20% ​​of the deposit, he can still earn at least 24 million high-grade spirit stones, which is a huge profit with zero investment!

The reason why Lu Feng has such high odds is also due to the person he impersonated, Duan Renzhi. Since the latter's cultivation level is mediocre, only at the fourth level of the Yuanhai Realm, the bookmakers outside the venue offered Lu Feng odds of 1 to 3!

After all, for a rogue cultivator at the fourth level of the Yuanhai Realm to achieve eight consecutive victories and clear the Bloodbath Road is no less difficult than ascending to heaven, and is almost impossible!

"Damn it! Is this guy looking down on me?!"

Seeing Lu Feng remain motionless, lost in thought with his eyes closed, Guan Que frowned slightly, a nameless anger rising within him.

After all, he was not only the deputy leader of the Floating Cloud Gang, one of the sixth-rank forces in Jinling City, but also a man of considerable cultivation, having reached the sixth level of the Yuanhai Realm.

On the other hand, Lu Feng on the other side only had the cultivation of the fourth level of the Yuanhai Realm, which was almost two whole minor realms lower than him, yet he dared to ignore him in public!

Thinking of this, Guan Que was naturally filled with rage and could not hold back at all!

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Seemingly noticing the sinister gaze directed at him from across the arena, Lu Feng slowly came to his senses, then smiled slightly, "I am Duan Renzhi, merely a rogue cultivator. Please enlighten me."

"Extinction Palm!"

As soon as the former finished speaking, Guan Que also launched a violent attack, raising his hand to strike Lu Feng's crown chakra, clearly intending to kill him and showing no mercy!

"The Heart of the Stars, Piercing Through Evil and Penetrating the Void!"

Facing Guan Que's full-force palm strike, Lu Feng remained standing with his hands behind his back, motionless, only a glimmer of orange-yellow starlight flashing across his right pupil.

Swish!

In an instant, the palm strike came, but Lu Feng simply twisted his body slightly to the side and easily dodged Guan Que's full-force palm strike, as if he had already seen through the opponent's attack trajectory.

"What?!"

Guan Que's expression changed slightly after his palm strike missed, revealing shock. "He... he actually dodged it?!"

"How is this possible!"

It should be noted that he not only used his full strength in this palm strike, but it was also as fast as lightning, making it almost impossible for an ordinary fourth-level Yuanhai Realm martial artist to dodge!

However, Lu Feng not only easily dodged his full-force palm strike, but the whole process took only a moment, and even Guan Que himself couldn't see how the other party did it!

"Heh, not bad strength, but unfortunately too slow and full of openings...!"

Just as Guan Que was in shock, Lu Feng's faint laughter suddenly came from behind him, sending chills down his spine and making his heart tremble. "Oh no...!"

"it's over!"

Without giving Guan Que any chance to react, Lu Feng also raised his hand and struck the opponent's vital point heavily on the back. A large amount of Yuan energy burst out instantly, piercing through Guan Que's back and splattering blood all over the ground!

"Pfft...!"

With Lu Feng's palm piercing through his back, Guan Que coughed up blood and retreated dozens of meters before collapsing to the ground, unable to even get up. He had clearly lost all fighting ability!

"One-hit kill!"

"Even Guan Que, the vice leader of the Floating Cloud Gang in Jinling City, known as 'Ghost Hand,' is no match for this man...!"

"Just who is this person?!"

Seeing this devastating battle unfold before them, not only were the referees on the sidelines stunned, but even the gamblers who had initially doubted Lu Feng and thought he was bound to lose were dumbfounded, as if they had been possessed by a ghost!
