Chapter 710: Chapter 710: The 1,000,000 Bet
"Young Master Ling!"
Qin Wufa smiled and said, "Both of us are prodigies participating in the Qing Province Heavenly Pride Ranking! We will definitely meet on the path to climb the Heavenly Pride Ranking. When the time comes, everyone will give their all! Since that’s the case, why not release Wutian and let us form a friendship. When the time comes, this bond will surely be considered in our actions. Why wouldn’t you agree?"
Now, Ling Chen relies on having a hostage, so the ten major sects dare not attack him.
But after leaving the Central Domain, there are still them!
They will also participate in the Heavenly Pride Ranking.
Moreover, it’s very likely that there will be close combat at that time!
As long as Ling Chen releases the hostage, then at that time, their attacks will no longer have any reservations.
With their strength, even the strength of the older generation might not surpass theirs.
Dealing with Ling Chen should not be too difficult.
Not to mention, they have three prodigal talents from the Central Domain.
Once they join forces, even some of the celestial-level prodigies might not dare to confront them!
"Yes! Young Master Ling, please consider it!"
Yun Yan from Lingyan Pavilion said with a smile.
"Young Master Ling, Brother Qin’s suggestion is really good."
Xun Wenxian from Seeking Immortal Sect also smiled at Ling Chen.
Qin Wufa, Yun Yan, and Xun Wenxian are the three prodigal talents from the Central Domain!
Seeing the three prodigies speaking, a smile also appeared on the faces of the sovereigns.
As long as Ling Chen isn’t foolish, he should absolutely agree to these three’s requests.
Otherwise, even if he leaves the Central Domain, Ling Chen would still face the thunderous means of the Central Domain’s sovereigns!
"Are you threatening me?"
Ling Chen’s eyes condensed, and he said with a faint smile.
"It’s not a threat, just a suggestion."
Qin Wufa smiled and said, "Young Master Ling has the right to reject! My suggestion is a good choice for you, me, the Central Domain, and the Eastern Domain as well."
"Fine!"
Ling Chen nodded and said, "How about making a bet with me?"
"What kind of bet?"
Qin Wufa asked.
"If I fight you and you win, I will release the person. If you lose, give me one million superior Spirit Crystals, how about that?"
Ling Chen smiled.
The attitude of Qin Wufa and the others was still quite good.
He had just broken through recently and was itching to test his strength.
It was also an opportunity to see what kind of strength the prodigal-talented level truly possessed!
"A million?"
Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but gasp.
One million superior Spirit Crystals, probably only the Qingyun Sword Sect, Seeking Immortal Sect, and Lingyan Pavilion could afford it!
And that too, would cost them dearly!
Qin Wufa couldn’t help but have his eyes condense.
Even as the top genius of Qingyun Sword Sect, he couldn’t afford so many Spirit Crystals himself.
Seeing the desire in the eyes of Qin Wutian opposite him, Qin Wufa took a deep breath and said, "Alright!"
Ling Chen’s strength is only at the fifth level of World Realm.
While he is at the late stages of the fourth level of World Realm.
Moreover, he possesses a flawless World Realm.
Fully comparable to the latter stages of the sixth level of World Realm!
He was confident in defeating Ling Chen.
"Alright!"
Ling Chen praised: "Worthy of being the first talent of the first sect in the Central Domain!"
Then he changed the tone and said, "However, I need to see the one million superior Spirit Crystals first."
Since it’s a bet, his stake was already on the line.
Naturally, he did not want the other party to swindle.
Hearing this, Qin Wufa’s brow furrowed.
He didn’t have that many Spirit Crystals on him right now.
Even if he went back to the sect, he probably couldn’t gather so many in a short time.
"Young Master Ling, we don’t have that many superior Spirit Crystals for the moment! Can we sign a note instead? If I lose, I will definitely deliver one million Spirit Crystals!"
Qin Wufa said.
He was confident he wouldn’t lose this battle, and the Spirit Crystals were just a formality.
"Sorry, no credit!"
Ling Chen shook his head and said, "When you’ve gathered them, come find me."
If Qin Wufa defaults then, he surely couldn’t chase all the way to Qingyun Sword Sect to demand them, right?
With his current strength, it’s impossible to contend with the sovereign of the Central Domain!
Even though he possessed the Sword Dao!
Ling Chen still had this self-awareness.
"Young Master Ling, please wait a moment!"
Qin Wufa spoke up.
Ling Chen halted and looked towards Qin Wufa.
Qin Wufa looked at the sovereigns from the top ten sects and said, "Everyone, please lend me the high-grade Spirit Crystals in your hands for the moment. I will return them immediately after usage."
Qin Wufa himself possessed two hundred thousand high-grade Spirit Crystals.
Yun Yan and Xun Wenxian each had one hundred thousand.
The three prodigies had a total of four hundred thousand on them.
Together with the other sixteen sovereigns, they managed to scrape together one million high-grade Spirit Crystals.
Yun Yan and Xun Wenxian even declared that if they lost the battle, their one hundred thousand high-grade Spirit Crystals would be considered a sponsorship to Qin Wufa.
Clearly, both had absolute confidence in Qin Wufa.
This Qin Wufa was indeed Central Region’s number one talent!
Even with Ling Chen’s miraculous abilities, he couldn’t possibly be Qin Wufa’s opponent!
"Young Master Ling, please check if it amounts to one million?"
Qin Wufa tossed the storage ring to Ling Chen.
With so many people around, he wasn’t worried that Ling Chen would covet his Spirit Crystals.
This was the confidence of a prodigy and the backing of the number one sect in the Central Region.
"Enough!"
After counting, Ling Chen returned the storage ring.
"In that case, would Young Master Ling please agree to a duel?"
Qin Wufa smiled slightly.
"Please!"
Ling Chen nodded, then stepped on Spiritual Power, soared into the air, and charged a hundred meters up.
Qin Wufa followed immediately.
The sovereigns also flew up into the sky to watch the battle.
Cultivators in Yan City also began flying towards the area upon hearing the news.
Qin Wufa, the top talent of the Central Region, making a move, was indeed a grand occasion.
Most cultivators had only heard of Qin Wufa’s reputation but had never witnessed his true strength.
Unexpectedly, they had the honor to witness it in Yan City.
And Qin Wufa’s opponent was Ling Chen.
Now, everyone had come to know quite a bit about Ling Chen and recognized that Ling Chen was the number one talent of the Eastern Domain!
This battle was truly a peak fight between the young generations of the Central and Eastern Domains!
Moreover, the fight was rumored to involve a wager of one million high-grade Spirit Crystals!
In the high sky.
Ling Chen and Qin Wufa stood facing each other in the air!
"Boom!"
Qin Wufa’s eyes shone brightly, his body shook, and an extremely powerful aura swept around instantaneously!
"Late stage of the sixth level of the World Realm!"
"As expected of our Central Region’s number one talent!"
"Yes! His cultivation is just at the fourth level of the World Realm, but his strength is comparable to a six-star sovereign!"
...
The sovereigns all expressed their surprised delight.
At this moment, the Eight Great Sects shared a common enemy.
"Is this what a prodigy-level talent looks like?"
Many were shaken in their spirits.
Such strength, comparable to the older generation’s powerhouses, was simply unbelievable!
"Not bad!"
Ling Chen’s eyes were filled with battling spirit.
The title of Central Region’s number one young figure was indeed not just for show!
His cultivation level was even higher than his own!
"Let me show you my true strength!"
Ling Chen grinned and an equally vast and ocean-like aura burst forth instantly.
"Sixth level of the World Realm?!"
Feeling Ling Chen’s aura, Qin Wufa’s expression became extremely vivid.
He had not expected that Ling Chen, who was younger than him, could have such terrifying strength!
It was not the rumored fifth level of the World Realm, but the sixth!
"What?!"
The expressions of the sovereigns from the ten major sects greatly changed.
