1295 I’m Taking You Home (1/2)

Time fleeted by and an hour passed. Two cool and imposing-looking deathmatch gladiators were brought into the arena. The good-looking Golden Immortal man in white slightly bowed to the spectators and then announced with a smiling face, \”This is the eighth match at our Convict Arena today. An expert of the Crystal Race against a Featherkin expert. The guests who'd like to participate in the gamble, it's time for you to place your bet.\”

Having said that, he didn't stay too long and quickly left the Convict Arena.

At the auditorium.

Dragon Broker came to Tang Xiu and bent as he whispered, \”Sir Great Tang, that Crystal Race's expert is just an ordinary Immortal, whereas that Featherkin expert has just advanced to the Earth Immortal Stage. The Convict Arena's authority placing them in this match means that this Crystal Race expert is very powerful and may be able to contend with an Earth Immortal. But there's also a chance that the Convict Arena's management is trying to manipulate the information. After all, such a chasm in cultivation level is not so easy to offset.\”

\”You just went around in order to remember the information of these deathmatch gladiators?\” Tang Xiu smilingly commented.

\”Ah, it's because this is a part of my service for you, so I naturally must know their information.\” Dragon Broker smilingly replied, \”However, I will only tell you their information without disturbing your judgment and decision.\”

Tang Xiu slowly nodded. Despite having sharp and keen eyesight, the fight between this Crystal Race and Featherkin experts had yet to start, so he was unable to judge their strength.

\”Tell me the records of their previous matches.\”

Dragon Broker told Tang Xiu the records of the two combatants' performances in their previous matches. He just simply recited the information about them since he had a good memory. After reciting them, he said, \”Sir Great Tang, I'm afraid you'd need to take note of all the information of the gladiators yourself if you'd like to keep betting, or you'd need to wait for the start of each match before you judge. A rushed decision and judgment would be less thorough otherwise.

Tang Xiu gently nodded as his mind unceasingly analyzed the records of these two people's winning matches. After more than 10 minutes, he then said, \”Place the bet for the win of that Crystal Race's gladiator.\”

\”100,000 Immortal Crystals all on him?\” Dragon Broker's throat dried as he asked hesitantly.

\”Yup. Bet all the 100,000 Immortal Crystals.\” Tang Xiu confirmed.

Despite knowing that Tang Xiu was really rich, little did Dragon Broker think that he would take it so lightly. He thought that Tang Xiu's decision to place all the 100,000 Immortal Crystals on the Crystal Race's gladiator was absolutely not a wise move. He just only heard the performance records of these two combatants, for God's sake!

Yet, he didn't dare to persuade since his previous attempt triggered his dissatisfaction. While harboring a helpless feeling, he had no choice but to go to the cashier window to place the 100,000 Immortal Crystals bet.

This grand gamble was, in fact, established and managed by the Convict Arena itself. Regardless of the win or loss of the gamblers, the Convict Arena was the real winner. However, the losers would lose all the money they bet, whereas the winners would double their money according to the amount of their bets.

For instance, in Tang Xiu's case, he would earn another 100,000 Immortal Crystals should he eventually win the bet.

Quickly after, Dragon Broker returned to Tang Xiu with the betting token worth 100,000 Immortal Crystals. After giving it to Tang Xiu, he respectfully said, \”Sir Great Tang, you can go to the cashier window to exchange the token into Immortal Crystals should you finally win. Also, we still have an hour left before the match begins. Would you like me to see the information regarding these two gladiators again?\”

Tang Xiu thought about it for a moment before he got up and said, \”Taking a look at them sounds good; better than wasting time here.\”

After saying that, he left the auditorium. However, he didn't go straight to the cages of the two deathmatch fighters, but started from the end of the row and kept reading the information on each cage. It only took him half an hour to see nearly a hundred deathmatch fighters and read all of their information.

\”Sir Great Tang, the deathmatch has just begun, don't we need to return to the auditorium?\” Dragon Broker really couldn't understand Tang Xiu's mind. He hesitated for a while before asking in a whisper.

\”Well, I'll read all the information of these deathmatch fighters, before enjoying the match in the auditorium then!\” Tang Xiu lightly said, \”But you can go back to the auditorium to watch the match yourself if you feel bored following me, though.\”

The teenager thought about it and finally said honestly, \”I'll stay with you, Sir Great Tang! In case you meet any deathmatch fighter you take a liking to, I can run about for you if you want to buy him or her.\”

\”Okay.\” Tang Xiu just answered casually and kept walking forward. There were more than 200 deathmatch fighters in the cells. The match between the Crystal Race's expert against the Featherkin expert came to an end with the former as the winner when Tang Xiu came to see the 140th cell.

\”We won!\”

Dragon Broker was so excited that his body slightly trembled. Although he wasn't the one who gambled, how easy it was for Tang Xiu to win 100,000 Immortal Crystals had really opened his eyes. There was a likely chance that he would earn more rewards from Tang Xiu should Tang Xiu win more Immortal Crystals in the end.

Tang Xiu himself seemed to not hear the teenager's exclamation. He was standing in front of a giant iron cage at the moment, looking at a scrawny and bloodied feline woman inside. The feline woman was very beautiful. Except for a few horizontal stripes on her cheek, her tail was moderately long and had obviously been cut off by someone while her other features were no different from humans.

The other deathmatch fighters always showed a ferocious or sinister expression whenever Tang Xiu approached them, except this feline female. Her expression and eyes looked dull and indifferent even if she realized that many people were crowding outside to see her.

\”Why do I feel I have met her before?\”
