Chapter 0360
Wu Yu followed after the alluring swagger of Feng Er's footsteps as they entered the battle platforms on the lower decks . It was quite similar to the Immortal Battleground, but the space for battle here was even wider than that . This ensured that each individual battle did not affect one another .
As Wu Yu raised his head, he noticed that the view from the upper deck's betting area was excellent . One could basically have a clear view of every single battle from above .
"Fellow dao practitioner Wu, please pay 200 Golden Essence Pills here . This is the entry fee that everyone has to pay in order to step into the battle platform . " Feng Er smiled as she brought Wu Yu to a counter .
Wu Yu felt downcast immediately . He did not expect there to be an entry fee .
As though she had noticed Wu Yu's poverty-stricken state, Feng Er added, "If you don't have any Golden Essence Pills on you, then other immortal medicines will suffice as well . You can hand in immortal treasures as a deposit as well . After you've won some money, you can then return here to pay the fee instead . "
She gently explained .
Wu Yu found her gentle gaze extremely dangerous . There were probably countless idiots who had lost their entire family's fortune right here . Based on his confidence in himself, he took out approximately 200 Golden Essence Pills worth of spiritual immortal treasures and handed them over . Due to this, one of his doppelgangers no longer had any immortal treasures equipped .
Feng Er smiled as she explained, "That's fine for now . May I ask if friend of dao Wu would like to claim a battle platform of his own, or would you like to challenge others on their own battle platforms instead? If you want to claim your own platform, you can't reject challenges more than five times a day . "
This was not a rule that was in place back at the Immortal Battleground . Back there, while you claimed an arena, you could continue to reject opponents for as long as you wanted .
"I'll claim one for myself," Wu Yu replied . He felt that it was more convenient to wait for others to challenge him . After all, this also meant that he could control the wager amount .
"Wow, you're so brave . Please follow me and watch your step . " Feng Er's pretty face maintained a captivating smile . Her tone was gentle and soft to the point of making others cringe .
Following after Feng Er, Wu Yu entered the battle platforms . The surrounding battles were all clearly visible to him . Most of them were battles between Jindan Dao cultivators, but there were occasionally a few Violet Kingdom of the Inner Sea cultivators sparring as well . The battles between the latter were exceptionally explosive, and large crowds watched those from above .
In fact, once one entered the Violet Kingdom of the Inner SeaRealm, they were considered figures of some importance . These people would not often appear below, and most of them spent their time on the upper decks drinking tea, chatting, making friends, and placing bets instead .
"Here's an empty battle platform . Please go onto it . " Feng Er gestured toward the platform to invite Wu Yu up with a slight bow . As she bowed, her low-cut dress revealed a delightful sight…
After what had happened with Nangong Wei, Wu Yu had no interest in women right now . Without a second word, he got onto the platform and tossed out all the spiritual immortal treasures he owned from his Sumeru Pouch to the wager area . At this moment, Feng Er had gone up to the battle platform as well . When she made it over to the wager area, her eyes lit up brightly as she tallied up all of Wu Yu's treasures . After some discussion with a male attendant from the Shangyuan Dao Sect, she announced its total value - 2,800 Golden Essence Pills .
"This man's name is Wu Yu, and he is an eighth tier Jindan Dao cultivator that does not belong to any sect . The wager is 2,800 Golden Essence Pills . Challengers are now welcome," Feng Er announced .
The truth was that she was slightly surprised by this as well . She never expected Wu Yu to be as bold as to place such a wager from the get-go .
"He only has five rejections available . Basically all First-time gamblers suffer huge losses, and it's only after some years of being a regular here that one becomes smarter about these things . I wonder if Wu Yu will start to weep on the spot after he loses it all . From what I can see, it seems like these things are all the valuables he has to his name . He couldn't even pay 200 Golden Essence Pills, how poor indeed," Feng Er thought to herself .
A wager that was close to 3,000 was considered above average among the hundred or so battle platforms . Therefore, it did not take long for a few dozen people to start to crowd around .
"Looks like it's a poor fledgling with no money at all . I'm afraid this is even his first time here . "
"That's right . I've never seen him before, so it's definitely his first time here . After all, when we first came here, we gambled huge sums and lost it all in one go as well . First-timers tend to be bolder since they want to get rich quick in just a single night . Haha . . . "
"It's not like we're all idiots here, so how's it possible that we'll hand over our Golden Essence Pills so easily?"
The people below the platform started to laugh mockingly .
"I'll earn this learner's fee from him!" Not long after, someone rushed atop the battle platform . This was a bald man with a stocky build . He was taller than Wu Yu and his dark, tanned body had a rough, stone-like complexion . In his hands, a spiritual immortal treasure had already been equipped . It was a pitch-black axe that gave him an imposing presence . He also wore a silver necklace that looked very much like a silver snake coiling around his neck .
"This is the leader of the Blackrock Sect . "
"How shameful of him to go up so quickly . Given his scary appearance, I'm pretty sure that Wu Yu will reject him . "
"There are only five chances to reject a challenge, so I think he'll be more prudent with them . "
This opponent was an eighth tier Jindan Dao cultivator as well . He was at the same level as Wu Yu . Of course, Wu Yu immediately accepted this challenge . His clear-cut decisiveness made everyone shocked .
"Ladies and gentlemen up there, are there any of you who would like to place a bet as well? You have a time of 20 breaths to decide," Feng Er told everyone in her delicate voice .
After the two parties had agreed to battle, the people in the betting area could place their wagers . The cut-off time for the battle was a quarter of an hour, and within this time, the battle would end in either a win, a loss, or a draw . The Shangyuan Dao Sect set the odds for each battle . For instance, the odds for betting on Wu Yu's victory were definitely much higher than his opponent’s .
