"To be able to break through the physical strength of someone who is a major realm higher, only a prestigious sect could probably do that, right?"

— Doubts and criticisms arose one after another.

Qin Shishi let out a long sigh. The emotions she had just recovered from were once again enveloped by worry. She stared at Ye Yuchan, who was sitting on the stage with an increasingly cold expression, and was about to say something for him.

The young man stood up again, his anger directed at Boss Qian.

"Hey boss, you can't even tell if someone has an elemental physique? You're a rare find in this underground fighting arena."

Boss Qian's obese body slowly turned around, and he frowned at the disheveled boy. "Ignorant brat, what did you say?"

“Elemental physique, huh?” The boy looked at Ye Yuchan with interest and spread his hands. “It should be the Lesser Heavenly Thunder Physique, a very rare physique. Even in ancient times, it was a rare physique.”

Ye Yuchan, sitting below the stage, glanced at the young man, her expression shifting slightly...

A face that wasn't particularly special was smiling inexplicably, his eyes calm as still water, yet occasionally shimmering with a spiritual light—Ye Yuchan didn't recognize him.

But he immediately recognized his Lesser Heavenly Thunder Body.

Who is this guy?

Subconsciously, Ye Yuchan felt a sense of wariness and hostility towards the boy.

However, the boy's words sparked a heated discussion.

Most of the people present were residents of Maple Leaf City, and their understanding of elemental constitution was almost zero.

In their eyes, those with higher cultivation levels are generally stronger, while those with lower cultivation levels are generally weaker. As for martial arts techniques, they neither understand nor care about them.

But it's impossible to say that no one knows about elemental constitution.

Mr. Qian was one of them.

He knew that elemental bodies existed in the world, and he also knew about the Lesser Heavenly Thunder Body.

Boss Qian waved his hand, his fat face trembling with anger. He stared intently at the boy, and after a long while, he could only snort disdainfully.

"Since you say she has an elemental constitution, can you ask her to prove it?"

"Then you'll have to ask her."

The boy's gaze, which held a half-smile, fell on Ye Yuchan.

At the same time, Ye Yuchan once again became the focus of the entire audience.

Yu Chan's lips twitched. She knew the saying "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." She didn't fully understand how rare elemental physiques were, but she knew it would definitely attract a lot of jealousy.

Just like her top-grade spiritual root back then.

However, there seemed to be no other choice at the moment, so he had no choice but to flick his right hand.

crackling-

A series of thunderous roars swirled around Ye Yuchan's right arm, and endless lightning bolts danced wildly like a dragon.

This time, not only Mr. Qian, but anyone with eyes could see that Ye Yuchan's physique was extraordinary!

"It really is an elemental physique!"

Boss Qian's eyes widened, and his gaze toward Ye Yuchan instantly shifted from doubt to greed.

The three Huo brothers were all his men, and Boss Qian made a lot of money from them, even more than he made from his own restaurant.

And if I could recruit a capable and ruthless person like Ye Yuchan...

"...Why do I always feel hairy all over my body..."

Completely unaware that she had become a target of a certain boss, Ye Yuchan shivered and a look of disgust appeared on her face.

The young man quickly stepped in to smooth things over, not wanting the boy and Boss Qian to have a serious falling out.

"Everyone, now that everything is clear, please stop questioning. Our martial arts arena has never engaged in any fraudulent practices, neither in the past nor in the future. Please calm yourselves and wait for the next fight."

His words still carried weight, and since Boss Qian had already fallen silent, no one else would dare to jump out and make a fool of themselves.

In conclusion, the dispute caused by this armed conflict has come to an end.

Most people lost their bets, while the young man who bet over 50,000 gold coins won a whopping 150,000 gold coins...

Even the young monk Zhuang Hai received 150 gold coins.

Although judging from Zhuang Hai's cold and even somewhat dark face, he seemed quite dissatisfied with the money he received.

After Ye Yuchan recovered some of her spiritual energy, she signaled to the young man that she could begin the second duel.

—She hadn't spent much spiritual energy to begin with.

Before that—

"Hmm?" The young man noticed Ye Yuchan calling him over with a troubled expression. He casually gestured to his men to handle the betting issue, and then slowly walked towards Ye Yuchan. "Miss Ye, what's wrong?"

Ye Yuchan looked around and, after confirming that no one was paying attention to her strange behavior, chuckled.

A smile even more greedy than Boss Qian's instantly appeared on Ye Yuchan's cheeks.

She seems to have found a way to make money, and all the money she had been hiding in her storage ring that was practically growing mushrooms was finally going to be put to good use!

"Um, this martial arts betting... can I participate?"

The young man was taken aback, and then he understood what Ye Yuchan meant.

He nodded quickly, "We do allow betting here, but you can't bet on your own loss, you can only bet on your own win. This is to avoid match-fixing that might upset the audience."

"I understand. Could you place a bet for me then?"

"Sure, but I wonder how much Miss Ye plans to bet on herself?"

Ye Yuchan blinked, glanced at the inventory in her storage ring, and did some calculations.

Then he took out three exquisite large boxes directly from his storage ring.

Then, under the stunned gaze of the young man, he uttered something astonishing.

"I don't know if I can win, so I'll just bet 300,000 first."

35. You think I'm a warrior, but I'm actually an archer!

Under the astonished gaze of the young man, Ye Yuchan casually bet all 300,000 gold coins on herself.

This directly caused her odds of winning to plummet from 1 to 2 to 1 to 1.5, aligning with the odds of her opponent winning.

What does 300,000 mean?

Those who can spend their time in this underground martial arts arena are mostly wealthy people, like the previous Boss Qian, who was extremely generous. In a single martial arts match, he could easily spend forty or fifty thousand if he wanted to.

But this young girl hasn't even seen her next opponent yet, and she's already bet 300,000 gold coins on herself?

—Does this mean you have absolute self-confidence?

The young man was unaware that he only felt that the strange girl, who had no temperament whatsoever, was becoming increasingly eerie, and the more eerie she became, the more wary he became.

They even considered befriending him.

Then the odds between the two began to fluctuate, and it was clear that many people had focused their attention on this girl who had suddenly appeared after seeing Ye Yuchan's unpredictable movements and unique elemental physique.

Of course, a few people still had doubts about Ye Yuchan and, after much hesitation, did not invest their precious money in her.

"One hundred and fifty gold coins, Miss Ye wins."

Without even glancing at it, Zhuang Hai threw all 150 gold coins he had just brought onto the betting plate in front of him, betting everything on Ye Yuchan to win, just like before.

However, at this moment, his cold face became even more ferocious than before, with endless gloom hanging over his head and his eyes filled with murderous intent.

His appearance, so different from that of the Buddhist disciples, naturally caught the attention of the boy and Qin Shishi.

Qin Shishi pursed her lips slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then cautiously whispered, "Zhuang Hai..."

"Miss Qin." Zhuang Hai didn't even glance at Qin Shishi, seemingly quite different from the little monk who had been afraid of her before. "Do you have any objections to my bet?"

"...No, no..." Qin Shishi shook her head, still staring at Zhuang Hai, "Zhuang Hai, are you...?"

Before Qin Shishi could ask the question, the boy's discordant voice rang out again.

"150,000 gold coins, bet on Miss Ye."

--What?!

The gloom on Zhuang Hai's face vanished instantly, and he stared at the boy in horror.

The young man, of course, wouldn't ignore Zhuang Hai's gaze, and maintained his nonchalant demeanor as he asked, "What's wrong, Master?"

"You bet 150,000 gold coins."

"so what?"

The young monk was speechless at the boy's words. What did he mean by "so what"? Why did the boy just casually utter 150,000 gold coins?

If he knew that Ye Yuchan had secretly given him 300,000 yuan, his expression would probably be much more interesting than it is now.

The boy's lips curled into a grin. "It's only 150,000. Money is just an external thing, right, little master?"

Zhuang Hai's expression worsened, and after a long silence, he finally closed his eyes.

"It is truly commendable that you, at such a young age, understand the principles of Buddhism."

"Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm actually quite old."

The boy smiled, but his gaze inadvertently bypassed Zhuang Hai and Qin Shishi, settling on Lin Yuan.

His expression changed rapidly several times before a complex and strange emotion welled up inside him, and he unconsciously smiled.

However, when Lin Yuan noticed his gaze and turned her head curiously, he quickly turned his head back, pretending that nothing had happened.

Inside the venue.

Ye Yuchan sat on the stool as usual, looking at the betting table next to her as if nothing was wrong. Watching the odds fluctuate, the girl had already started calculating how many gold coins she would get later.

—The miserly nature of him was fully revealed at this moment.

However, before Ye Yuchan, who wasn't very good at math, could figure it out, her opponent for the second martial arts match arrived on the fighting stage.

This time, however, the other party surprised her so much that she almost knocked her jaw off.

"Miss Ye, let me introduce myself. I am Huoqiu, a member of the Huo family. The one you just defeated is my younger brother."

A gentle voice, completely different from that of the Third Young Master Huo Ying, rang in her ears. Ye Yuchan suddenly perked up her ears and looked ahead in surprise.
