Chapter 984
Three days went by, and Ling Han headed toward Thousand Peak Mountain . This was the location of their duel .
This duel had attracted a huge amount of attention, and thus many people turned up to spectate the battle . Not only did students from the academy come, but all kinds of people from the Imperial Capital also appeared . They all went to great lengths to enter the Academy so they could personally witness the duel .
Even Zhao Lun turned up to spectate the battle . He stood atop a mountain peak with his hands clasped behind his back, and there were another four people standing beside him .
They were Sha Yuan, Liu Huilan, Jing Wuxue, and Shangguan Yuanji . Each of them was renowned in the Academy . Originally, Zhao Lun had been slightly weaker than these four individuals . However, after he advanced into the consummate level of the Mountain River Tier, his standing became equal with the four of them .
Sha Yuan chuckled, and asked, "How many exchanges do you guys think that brat can last?"
"He's only at the low extreme, let's say at the peak stage," Liu Huilan said . "Even if he's a four-star genius, that's only equivalent to a battle prowess on par with the peak stage of the medium extreme . Bai Yuansi would easily suppress him even if he was only an ordinary cultivator at the high extreme . Not to mention, Bai Yuansi is already at the middle stage of the medium extreme, and is even close to a three-star genius . "
The Liu Clan had many members who were loyal subordinates to Great General Zhao; thus, Liu Huilan was naturally inclined to fully support Zhao Lun . However, she had spoken the truth, and both Jing Wuxue and Shangguan Yuanji nodded in agreement . Meanwhile, Zhao Lun wore a look of contempt and disdain .
"Then let's make a bet," Sha Yuan said with a chuckle .
"How so? What are the stakes?" Zhao Lun asked . He and Sha Yuan were both sons of Great Generals, and often clashed to determine who was the superior one among the two . As such, Zhao Lun naturally wasn't willing to back down .
"I wager that the brat can last for over 500 exchanges . " Sha Yuan smiled, and said, "In fact, he might even win!"
Zhao Lun and the others were all astonished .
'How is that possible?'
The difference in power between Ling Han and Bai Yuansi was as clear as day . No matter what he did, there was not a single shred of chance that Ling Han could win . In fact, it was hard to say if he could even last for more than 10 exchanges . So, how could he last for 500 exchanges, much less win?
"Brother Sha, are you really going to persist with your wager?" Jing Wuxue asked in a frosty voice . He was naturally cold and indifferent; it wasn't as if he held a strong animosity for everyone else .
A smile stretched across Sha Yuan's face, and he said, "I'll just make a bet with you guys . "
"Since you're insistent on giving us a gift, count me in," Zhao Lun said . "I'll wager White Cloud Star Metal!"
Gasp!
Liu Huilan, Jing Wuxue, and Shangguan Yuanji were all stunned . White Cloud Star Metal was an extremely precious Level Seven Godly metal .
Even Sha Yuan was slightly startled . "Zhao Lun, how bold!"
"Are you afraid?" Zhao Lun chuckled coldly .
"I accept your wager!" Sha Yuan said confidently .
Liu Huilan immediately said, "Since Brother Sha is so bold, I can't let him down . I'll wager three drops of Cloud Phoenix True Blood . "
It was another huge stake .
Of course, the Cloud Phoenix True Blood that Liu Huilan wagered couldn't have come from a True Phoenix, an Ancient Divine Beast . Rather, it was from its descendant whose bloodline was already extremely diluted . Even so, having the term "Phoenix" in its name reflected its strength and rarity .
"Hehe, then I'll wager a Three Rhino Dark Jade," Shangguan Yuanji said with a smile .
"One blade of Yang Xing Grass," Jing Wuxue said coldly .
Even though Sha Yuan had a relatively strong understanding of Ling Han, his mouth still went dry when he heard the stakes that the others brought in . If he lost, paying out the value of those four treasures would cause him to be short of money for the next 10,000 years .

Riches were found in danger .
"Then, let us wait and see!" Sha Yuan said with a chuckle . However, Zhao Lun and the others could all hear the nervousness in his voice . This was normal as the stakes were simply too high . Moreover, Ling Han's chances of winning were extremely slim .
***
"Ling Han!" Tang Feng leaped out from the crowd and stood in Ling Han's path . He had already been waiting here for a long time .
