Divine War Pill Emperor

Chapter 426 - 424: Not Qualified

Jiang Chen’s words instantly caused an uproar below.

Many people started placing bets.

But without a doubt, nearly everyone bet on the Black Demon Mercenary Corps.

Some people even made a living off the bets here, neglecting their mercenary missions entirely.

With a bookie taking wagers, the betting floor exploded with activity.

Seeing this, a playful smirk appeared on He Ansheng’s face.

He took out ten thousand Yuan Crystals.

"Ten thousand Yuan Crystals. I’m betting on Zhang Xi to win."

The one set to face Jiang Chen was named Zhang Xi.

With even the vice-captain of the Black Demon Mercenary Corps placing a bet, the other members also took out their Yuan Crystals and bet on Zhang Xi to win.

The sentiment was completely one-sided.

Almost no one was betting on Jiang Chen.

Meanwhile, Zhan Yang and the others looked at each other in dismay.

Finally, they grew furious.

Zhan Yang said furiously, "Whatever! We won a hundred thousand from the Caterpillar Mercenary Corps before. This time, I’m betting on Jiang Chen to win. Three hundred thousand—I’m betting it all!"

This time, to show his confidence in Jiang Chen, Zhan Yang was going all out.

JinLing and the others all admired Zhan Yang.

Needless to say, they were all supporting Jiang Chen.

"Heh. Zhan Yang, you’re guaranteed to lose. Three hundred thousand, kiss it goodbye."

Ding Jie, the captain of the Caterpillar Mercenary Corps, had come over to join in on the commotion, despite still being injured.

He shot Zhan Yang and the others a mocking smile.

Finally, he decisively took out five hundred thousand.

"I’m betting on Zhang Xi to win."

Five hundred thousand Yuan Crystals was practically all the Caterpillar Mercenary Corps had left.

The moment he took it out, his other team members grew displeased.

"Captain, that’s the last five hundred thousand Yuan Crystals we have! What will we do if you bet it all and lose?"

"Shut up, you jinxes! How could I possibly lose? Just watch, I’m definitely going to win this time."

Ding Jie cut his team members off, clearly annoyed.

He was certain that this time, the member from the Warring States Mercenary Corps was doomed to lose.

The crowd below was in a frenzy.

On the stage, Jiang Chen shot He Ansheng the middle finger.

"Ten million."

"If I lose, I’ll give you ten million. If you lose, you give me ten million."

It wasn’t just that he was confident; he was absolutely certain of his victory.

After all, dealing with a mere Martial Master Eighth Layer Heaven was a piece of cake for him.

"HA, HAHAHAHA..."

He Ansheng laughed so hard tears welled up in his eyes.

"Kid, you actually dare to bet ten million against us."

"You’ve got a lot of guts. But do you even have ten million?"

He suspected Jiang Chen didn’t have ten million to his name at all.

When Jiang Chen mentioned such a colossal sum, the faces of many onlookers turned pale.

Ten million Yuan Crystals was an absolutely staggering fortune.

And yet, Jiang Chen had just tossed out the number ten million.

The color drained from Zhan Yang’s face.

GULP...

He swallowed hard.

He had already bet three hundred thousand Yuan Crystals and thought that was a massive sum.

But now Jiang Chen was talking about betting ten million.

Ten million... The Warring States Mercenary Corps didn’t have anywhere near that much.

"Jiang Chen, are you crazy? We don’t have that many Yuan Crystals!"

he reminded Jiang Chen.

But Jiang Chen just smiled. "Don’t worry, I do."

’Right now, Jiang Chen had two trillion Yuan Crystals on him, all from the Elixirs Murong Xiangming of the Treasure Elephant Pavilion had helped him sell.’

’Jiang Chen hadn’t really spent much of it.’

’He still had it on hand.’

’So, ten million was just a drop in the bucket to him.’

’Alchemists were never short on cash.’

"That’s right! Do you even have that many Yuan Crystals?"

Zhang Xi stood opposite Jiang Chen, his battle intent surging. He was filled with contempt for Jiang Chen.

Although rumor had it that Jiang Chen had instantly killed Xiaoyu, a Martial Master Seventh Heaven, he was confident that Jiang Chen would absolutely lose to him.

’One move? Two, at most,’ he thought confidently.

Now, he also questioned if Jiang Chen really had ten million.

Jiang Chen gave a faint smile and casually tossed a Qiankun Bag toward He Ansheng.

"See for yourself. Is it there?"

’Ten million really is too little.’

’He was only afraid they couldn’t come up with more, otherwise he would have casually bet a hundred million and bankrupted them.’

He Ansheng caught the Qiankun Bag, and one look inside left him stunned.

He stared at Jiang Chen in astonishment, then tossed the Qiankun Bag back to him.

"Well, kid. I underestimated you."

"You’re quite wealthy."

He was truly shocked. How could a member of a Three-Star Mercenary Corps possibly have ten million Yuan Crystals on his person?

That was completely impossible.

And they were the most powerful team among all the Three-Star Mercenary Teams.

They took on missions constantly, and even so, the wealth they possessed was only a few tens of millions.

After all, they had many members and also consumed a considerable amount of Yuan Crystals each day.

All those Yuan Crystals had been accumulated through the combined efforts of their several hundred members completing missions.

’Good thing they could make ten million off Jiang Chen this time.’

He laughed heartily. "Excellent. I like your character."

"Ten million, right? We have it too."

From the stage, Jiang Chen said flatly, "Talk is cheap. Take it out and let me see."

’If they were going to compete, they might as well make the stakes high and the fight ruthless.’

Jiang Chen always preferred a greater challenge.

He Ansheng’s expression turned cold.

"You don’t trust me?"

How could the great Black Demon Mercenary Corps possibly do something like go back on their word?

Although their Dark Team did that sort of thing all the time.

But the official corps was very trustworthy.

This concerned the future and reputation of the Black Demon Mercenary Corps.

"I only believe what I can see with my own eyes."

"You know full well what the Black Demon Mercenary Corps is like."

Jiang Chen truly did not trust the Black Demon Mercenary Corps.

The fact that they had plotted against Zhan Yang and the others over the Moyang Flower said it all.

He Ansheng’s face turned livid. It seemed the people from the Warring States Mercenary Corps knew exactly what they had done.

He said no more and had someone transfer ten million Yuan Crystals from the Mercenary Castle on the spot.

After all, as a mere vice-captain, it was impossible for him to carry ten million Yuan Crystals on his person.

In other words, Jiang Chen was still the more extravagant one.

Soon, Jiang Chen had verified the other party’s Yuan Crystals; it was indeed ten million.

"In that case, let’s just get started."

Jiang Chen seemed unable to wait.

Ten million was, in truth, an enormous fortune.

For a group like the Warring States Mercenary Corps, it would take over a decade to accumulate that much.

But to Jiang Chen, it truly wasn’t much.

Still, every little bit counted, and Jiang Chen wasn’t one to turn it down.

Zhang Xi, too, had long been rubbing his fists in anticipation.

He was itching for a fight.

Down below, He Ansheng gave the signal.

Zhang Xi immediately cupped his fist in a salute toward Jiang Chen.

"Zhang Xi. I don’t kill nobodies, so state your name."

But Jiang Chen replied coolly, "You’re not yet worthy of knowing. Beat me first, then we can talk."

At this moment, Jiang Chen was being utterly aggressive.

Zhang Xi was so enraged he nearly passed out.

He was being ignored by Jiang Chen. Utterly ignored!

He was absolutely furious.

How could a dignified Martial Master Eighth Layer Heaven be looked down upon by some brat at the Sixth Level of Martial Master?

He flew into a rage.

He bared his teeth in a savage grin.

"Alright, kid. You’re plenty arrogant."

"In that case, allow me to teach you a proper lesson."

In the Dueling Arena, one could even kill people.

If someone was killed, the other party had no right to seek retribution.

These were the rules of the Dueling Arena.

As long as you were dueling here, the rules were in effect.
