Chapter 1016: The Strong Feeds On The Weak (2/2)

In the middle of the crowd of people was a space which looked similar to a plaza. What made Mo Wuji curious was that in that space was an erected stone. On top of the stone was at least over 3-4 thousand resource tablets.

Five people were standing at the periphery of this erected stone.

Near the stone was a battlestage which was protected by a defensive array. Blood stained all across the battlestage and who knew how many people had died there?

Among the five people standing near the erected stone was a short man in a brown robe. He walked out as he clasped his fists towards the battlestage. ”There are already 3,900 resource tablets here and this battle is mine, Ha Liang's. Anyone can choose to challenge me and you will get the number of resource tablets you bet if you win.”

”I, Jin Tao, bet 2000 resource tablets!” A well-built expert in the Heavenly God Level 9 shouted as he stepped onto the stage.

At the instance Jin Tao stepped onto the stage, he threw 20 resource tablets onto that stone. Currently, the total number of resource tablets on that stone was 3,920.

Mo Wuji seemed to understand the rules here. Everyone here could challenge the five people surrounding the stone. Moreover, you only need to hand over one resource tablet to bet for 100 resource tablets. This cultivator called Jin Tao took out 20 resource tablets from his own pocket so if he were to win Ha Liang, he would be rewarded with 2000 resource tablets.

This idea must have originated from those five fellas surrounding the stone. These five fellas must not be simple figures since they dared to challenge so many experts openly.

Mo Wuji spotted Bai Yue but didn't go over to greet him. Even though everyone could guess that he was Mo Wuji after leaving this place, Mo Wuji still didn't wish to reveal his identity so early on. Guessing and recognising were two very different matters.

”Ha Liang was ranked number 7 among the ten great Heavenly Gods. I'm afraid Jin Tao wouldn't be a match for him,” Someone in the crowd started discussing.

”It doesn't matter even if he isn't a match for Ha Liang. Given Jin Tao's strength, keeping his own life shouldn't be a problem. 20 resource tablets wouldn't even mean much. What if Jin Tao won? There were a large number of cultivation holylands in this secret realm so who knows if Jin Tao obtained some sort of miracle treasure…”

As the discussion continued, Jin Tao and Ha Liang had already started fighting.

Mo Wuji was already in the Heavenly God Level 2 so he could clearly tell that Jin Tao was not a match for Ha Liang. There were also vast differences between their sacred arts. Ha Liang's sacred art had touched the true Laws of the Heaven and Earth just like Gai Ji's sacred arts did. Jin Tao's sacred art was merely imitating the Laws of the Heaven and Earth of others.

Indeed, in just half an incense worth of time, Jin Tao's head was split apart by Ha Liang and even his primordial spirit didn't make it out. Jin Tao's storage ring was instantly kept by Ha Liang. Even before his corpse touched the ground, a flame had turned Jin Tao's body into ashes.

Mo Wuji sighed. The strong really feed on the weak.

Ha Liang didn't step down from the stage as someone else wanted to challenge him. This time, it was a skinny man in the Heavenly God Level 9.

What made Mo Wuji astonished was how this Heavenly God Level 9 expert wasn't much weaker than Ha Liang. After battling for over 2 hours, Ha Liang merely defeated his opponent. However, it was impossible for him to kill off his opponent.

After this battle, Ha Liang had also stepped down from the battlestage. The person who stepped onto the stage was a scholar looking man as he clasped his fist. ”Ju Shen is here for experience. Against me, one resource tablet could win 200 resource tablets and the minimum bet is 10 resource tablets.”

”Who is this Ju Shen?” Mo Wuji asked the cultivator beside him.

This cultivator looked suspiciously at Mo Wuji as he sized him up with his eyes before replying, ”Ju Shen was ranked number one among the ten great Heavenly Gods in Nirvana Learning Academy. How can you not know him?”

Mo Wuji simply smiled and replied, ”I'm just kidding.”

This cultivator sneered at Mo Wuji as he couldn't be bothered with Mo Wuji's joke.

Even though Ju Shen's offer was a ratio of 1:20 resource tablets, nobody went up even after a long period of time. This made Ju Shen very helpless because everytime he stood up, he was merely giving his companions some rest time. There was no need for him to fight because there was simply too little cultivators willing to fight him. Up till now, he had only fought in 7 battles.

Just when everyone thought that nobody was willing to go on stage, a calm voice sounded, ”Let me experience your sacred art.”

Following which, a tall man with shoulder-length hair landed on the battlestage. It was almost as if he took only one step to enter from outside onto the stage.

A mighty aura extended outwards and almost everyone was shocked. How could there be a God Monarch expert here? How was this an aura belonging to a Heavenly God?

”You've already stepped into the God Monarch Stage?” Jushen's expression changed because he knew of the vast difference in strength between a Heavenly God and God Monarch. At the very least, he had never heard of any Heavenly God capable of beating a God Monarch.

Gai Ji's boasting of himself killing a revered God Monarch was only because his opponent was only half a step into the God Monarch Stage, who was still considered to be in the Great Circle of the Heavenly God Stage. No matter how close he was to breaking past the Great Circle of the Heavenly God Stage, he was still in the Heavenly God Stage.
