Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

After Fairy Jin Yan put it this way, Su Liang naturally agreed immediately.

If the five top-tier geniuses of the Golden Thunder Tiger clan were to come and kill him, he would absolutely not sit idly by and wait to die.

However, if the other party is not planning to cause him trouble, he will not voluntarily go looking for trouble.

As for taking care of Kim Yeon-hee on the Enlightenment Platform, that's a very simple matter.

The Enlightenment Platform has strict restrictions on Daoist charm and strength.

Those old guys above the Heavenly King level, or within the Heavenly King level but whose Dao aura has declined, are unable to enter the Enlightenment Platform.

In other words, only the resurrected prodigies and contemporary prodigies can enter the Enlightenment Platform.

Even those resurrected experts, whose cultivation is at the peak of the Heavenly King level but not beyond, are still unable to enter the Enlightenment Platform because their Dao aura has decayed.

The battle at the Enlightenment Platform has instantly become the focus of attention for everyone in the Nine Netherworld.

The Enlightenment Platform itself possesses countless opportunities, including the Daoist essence that flows from and gives rise to countless other Daoist principles.

Besides the benefits of the Enlightenment Platform itself, this battle on the Enlightenment Platform also has other exciting aspects.

For example, many resurrected prodigies and powerful figures have already made their statements.

In this battle at the Enlightenment Platform, we must kill Su Liang.

At this moment, Su Liang is also the only one who has been listed as a dangerous figure on the kill list by many resurrected geniuses.

Just as the battle at the Enlightenment Platform was about to begin, the Nine Netherworld Merchant Guild arrived as scheduled.

As the largest merchant guild in the Nine Netherworld, they are present wherever there is a chance to make money.

The Nine Netherworld Chamber of Commerce arrived ahead of schedule to begin their betting operations and analyze the strength of various prodigies.

With only one day left before the Enlightenment Platform opens, Su Liang, now in a different form, is walking through the streets of Nine Nether City.

Upon seeing the betting odds for the Nine Netherworld, he walked over out of curiosity.

By this time, the area was already crowded with people.

Clearly, many cultivators from the Nine Netherworlds are preparing to make a fortune this time!

"Everyone, I have already mentioned the ten people who are most likely to win the Battle of Enlightenment Platform this time."

"But in fact, besides the ten people from before, there are three more whose chances are not small either."

Chapter 813 Highly Sought After, High-Stakes Gamble

As the old man from the Nine Netherworld Merchant Guild spoke with a ruddy complexion, Su Liang also turned his head and glanced at the stone tablet to the side.

Ten names have already appeared on this huge stone tablet, followed by brief introductions and descriptions.

Clearly, these ten resurrected prodigies are now recognized as the strongest in all factions of the Nine Netherworld.

After taking a look, Su Liang immediately touched his nose.

Do these guys really look down on him like that?

Surprisingly, his name was not on this list of ten.

Of course, Su Liang also heard what the old man in the black robe said: besides the ten resurrected prodigies, there are three others who also have a very high probability of winning the championship.

At this moment, Su Liang was also eager to know if he was on the list of three candidates.

"Old Wei, stop keeping us in suspense, who are the remaining three?"

Some impatient and fiery cultivators would directly ask questions at this moment.

What he hates most is this kind of hesitation.

Instead of hesitating, just say what you have to say.

"Take it easy, take it easy."

"The remaining three are: first, the resurrected prodigy of the Emperor Spirit Clan, the Holy Son of Emperor Ku!"

"The second one is the Golden Thunder Tiger Clan's Golden Sky Saint Son!"

"This last person..."

Speaking of this place, Old Wei continued to pique everyone's interest.

"Quickly, tell me, who is this last person!"

The more Elder Wei acted this way, the more the people around him wanted to know who this last person was.

Su Liang was also dumbfounded. Could it be that he couldn't even rank in the top twelve?

"This last person... is Yan Jun, the Holy Son of the Yanling Clan!"

Amidst everyone's anticipation, Old Wei uttered a very obscure, even unfamiliar, name.

Many of the monks in this area had never even heard of this name.

"Holy Son Yan Jun, who is this person?"

"Among the resurrected prodigies, there is such a person?"

"That shouldn't be the case; I've never heard of it before."

Many cultivators shook their heads, clearly indicating that they had never heard of this Yan Jun Holy Son.

Su Liang was at a loss for words, wondering if this person had simply omitted him from the list or if they felt that all thirteen people were stronger than him and therefore didn't include him.

"Mr. Wei, there might be something wrong with this list."

"You should know that Su Liang, the number one genius of the human race, is currently in the Nine Netherworld."

"And we all know that Su Liang will also be participating in this battle at the Enlightenment Platform."

"Does Elder Wei think that Su Liang's strength is still below these thirteen people?"

At this moment, a cultivator who had a very good impression of Su Liang slowly spoke up.

After he spoke, many cultivators turned their gazes toward Elder Wei.

Old Wei didn't speak immediately, but a closer look would reveal a fleeting hint of disdain in his eyes.

In other words, he didn't take Su Liang seriously at all.

The title of the greatest human prodigy and the chief seal holder of the Taihao Academy are all empty names.

Even though Su Liang's strength was indeed considerable, he was still subject to the suppression of the Dao principles on the Enlightenment Platform.

Other cultivators from the Nine Netherworlds can unleash 120% of their potential on the Enlightenment Platform, while Su Liang can only unleash 70% at most.

Even if Su Liang and the thirteen people in front of him were all geniuses of the same level, after losing these many advantages, he might not be a match for these thirteen people.

Su Liang stood calmly in the crowd, not in a hurry to prove anything, nor did he need to prove anything.

……

Outside the Jiuyou Chamber of Commerce's temporary headquarters, people were discussing the matter animatedly.

The old man, known as Elder Wei, spoke eloquently, continuously analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of the many prodigies.

After recounting all the information he knew, Old Wei chuckled and spoke loudly.

"Alright, now that you know what you need to know, you can place your bets."

Upon hearing Elder Wei's words, many cultivators present were quite excited.

They came here hoping to rise to the top in one step. Right now, as long as they have a keen eye and enough courage, they definitely have a chance to rise to the top in one step.

Most cultivators highly agree with Elder Wei's judgment.

Apart from the mysterious Holy Son Yan Jun, all the other prodigies have now become favorites to win the championship.

Therefore, the odds for these prodigies are also 1 to 1 or 1 to 2.

It's rare for a bookmaker to offer odds higher than 1 to 2 when they're in control.

Even the mysterious and unfathomable Yan Jun, the Holy Son, only had odds of 1 to 3.

Wei Wuxi of the Nine Netherworld Merchant Guild may not be particularly strong, but he has an incredibly sharp eye.

Every time the Nine Netherworld Chamber of Commerce opens a betting platform, he is asked to analyze the situation beforehand and provide guidance to everyone.

Looking at the dazzling array of treasures piled up like mountains, Su Liang's heart stirred.

Although he possesses numerous treasures and lacks no resources, he still has access to some top-tier treasures and rare natural materials.

Besides these top-tier treasures and rare natural materials, any treasures he doesn't need can be stored in the Nine Heavens Mystic Phoenix Clan's treasury and the Qin Dynasty's national treasury.

This will enhance the power of the Nine Heavens Mystic Phoenix Clan and the Great Qin Dynasty.

Although Wei Wuxi didn't emphasize him when analyzing the many prodigies, Su Liang still noticed that his odds were actually quite low, meaning there was practically no profit to be made.

His odds of winning the championship were as high as one to four.

It is clear that while the crowd trusted Wei Wuxi, they also trusted their own judgment.

Su Liang has repeatedly shaken the world with his power. If such a cultivator were weak, then there would probably be no strong people in the world.

In fact, at the beginning, the odds of Su Liang winning the championship were 1 to 4, but after a short while, the odds changed to 1 to 3, then 1 to 2.

At this moment, Su Liang is the only cultivator with such low odds, apart from the thirteen favorites to win the championship.

This is undoubtedly another honor, a recognition of Su Liang's strength by the many cultivators of the Nine Netherworld.

However, Su Liang doesn't want that kind of recognition at all right now.

His odds are only one to two, at most one to three.

Under such circumstances, it can be said that there is absolutely no profit to be made.

Su Liang was also quite helpless at this moment. He was sure that if he put too much pressure on himself, his odds would shrink even more rapidly.

"Ok?"

After a moment's thought, Su Liang's gaze suddenly shifted.

Betting on him to win the championship yields almost no profit, but betting on second place is much more interesting.

There are now about fifty candidates for second place.

However, Jin Yanxi was not among these fifty-odd cultivators!

This time he accepted the gift from Fairy Golden Flame
