Chapter 187: 187: Filled with Fighting Spirit, Breaking through the Limit

“Don’t worry, I’ve been running the betting rings in this arena for decades with the Thousand Yuan Dynasty backing me. Do you really think I can’t afford this trifling amount?”

Thousand Yuan Dynasty backing him?

Upon hearing these words, AnRan narrowed his eyes slightly.

He naturally understood the financial clout of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty. To them, this amount of money was nothing.

Although he was fired up at the moment, he also knew that if he went all in and the opponent couldn’t pay, wouldn’t he be ruined?

Originally AnRan had planned to bet two billion.

But now AnRan had changed his mind.

“Are you sure “you” are connected to the Thousand Yuan Dynasty? And they are willing to pay up for you?”

“Rest assured, the whole Qiankun City knows who I am, Wang Laowu? I work for the City Lord. Isn’t the City Lord part of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty?”

Wang Laowu slapped his chest and said: “To tell you the truth, this betting ring isn’t just owned by the City Lord, the majority stake is held by officials from the Thousand Yuan Dynasty.”

“Without their backing, do you think this betting ring could survive?”

Not only that, Wang Laowu even took out a token from the Thousand Yuan Dynasty. AnRan, being a person from a major force himself, had seen such tokens and could instantly tell it was real.

Thinking of this, AnRan took a deep breath.

“I remember the old boss taking me to stir things up before, this time, I’ll stir things up for the old boss!”

“Old boss, just wait to see how I strip off a layer of skin from the Thousand

Yuan Dynasty to vent your anger.”

With a cold smirk in his heart, AnRan turned to Wang Laowu: “Fine, I’ll bet ten billion of the best grade spirit stones!”

“What, ten billion!”

Wang Laowu cried out in shock. This was too much money!

For a moment, he was somewhat flustered. You have to know that, with five-to-one odds, ten billion would mean he had to return sixty billion including the original sum!

This sum was astronomical!

Who could handle it?

“What, you dare not? Didn’t you say the Thousand Yuan Dynasty was backing you up? Why are you backing down now?” AnRan sneered.

“You’re talking nonsense. Would I be scared?”

Wang Laowu quickly yelled out. He then shifted his gaze, assessing AnRan’s strength.

He’s only at the later stages of the Yuan Infant; looking at this chubby guy’s demeanor, he probably has some power behind him, but it certainly can’t compare to the Thousand Yuan Dynasty.

After weighing up the situation, Wang Laowu determined that even if things fell through, the powers behind this fatty wouldn’t dare to make a big deal out of it.

When the time comes, he would just pay back the money.

If he won, then even better. The money would belong to him!

At this thought, Wang Laowu gave a cold laugh: “What wouldn’t I dare, if you dare to place the bet, I dare to pay!”

“Fine, get the promissory note ready!”

AnRan slapped the table and placed a storage ring on it: “The promissory note must state that the Thousand Yuan Dynasty pays the money!”

“What’s so strange about that? Aren’t all the promissory notes written that way?

Wang Laowu said nonchalantly. With a wave, someone prepared the note which was stamped with the seal of the Qiankun City Lord’s Mansion.

Seeing this, AnRan chuckled internally. The general idea in the note was that if Jiang Xiaobai won, then the Thousand Yuan Dynasty would pay.

The seal from the City Lord’s Mansion served to confirm this agreement.

However, AnRan still had them make some alterations. This way, even if the Thousand Yuan Dynasty repudiated the deal later, trying to leave the City Lord’s Mansion to shoulder it, it would be useless!

AnRan signed and paid the note once the corrections were made.

“Wang Laowu, I’m waiting for your money.” AnRan gave Wang Laowu a suggestive smile, a touch of cunning hidden behind it.

Seeing this smile, Wang Laowu somehow felt uneasy.

Why did he feel like he was the one who had been duped?

“Hmph, what can you do to me? Let’s not mention whether Hong Shixian can beat Gong Shuier; even if you win, do you dare call on the Thousand Yuan Dynasty to pay up?

Wang Laowu sneered in his heart, not taking this matter to heart, and continued to work the crowd: “Last call for bets, last call for bets…

On the stage, Gong Shuier has already taken the stage opposite Jiang Xiaobai.

Her face is hidden under a black veil, but those jewel-like bright eyes filled with coldness.

Jiang Xiaobai laughed in his heart at the sight: “Another aloof girl, huh? She seems to be quite pretty, but I don’t know if she can be compared to my Ao

Yan.”

“I want to confirm with you one last time, are you sure you don’t want me to suppress my cultivation level?” Gong Shuier said coldly.

“Why would I need that? At times like this you…”

Jiang Xiaobai was talking freely, but before he could finish, Gong Shuier attacked directly.

“Damn, learning on the spot, huh?”

Jiang Xiaobai was startled, but he quickly snapped back to alertness, watching Gong Shuier’s attack trajectory with grave concentration.

In a split second, they were both enveloped by the terrifying aura of the Dividing the Gods.”

This was the suppression of a higher realm. Even though Jiang Xiaobai’s current realm was at the ultimate level of perfection, he still found it somewhat resistant.

His entire body moved slowly, as if stuck in a mire or marsh, while everything around him became incredibly viscous.

Clang!

The long, slender soft sword thrust came from the side. Jiang Xiaobai had been on his guard and wanted to dodge, but due to the realm suppression, despite his best efforts, he was still a bit too slow.

Jiang Xiaobai’s heart was calm, he quickly lifted his long sword to block in front.

Clang!

With a strong collision, Jiang Xiaobai only felt as if he had been hit by a mountain; it was overwhelmingly painful.

At the same time, he was blown away, but thankfully he managed to stop himself with his spiritual power. Otherwise, the blow would have sent him flying off the stage.

“Your strength is too weak.”

Gong Shuier sneered coldly as she did not let up her attack, the long, slender soft sword in her hand once again stabbing towards Jiang Xiaobai in a ghostly trajectory.

“Weak my ass!”

Jiang Xiaobai roared, and attacked with his long sword. Although he could block the attack, the gap in strength caused by the realm was simply too clear to see!

Each time, Jiang Xiaobai felt as if his body was about to break apart, and his palms were already bloody from his efforts.

“No good! This head-on approach isn’t the solution. Sooner or later I’m going to be killed by this woman.”

Jiang Xiaobai, who knew the situation was grim, immediately began calculating a plan in his heart.

He knew whether he could continue to rise all the way in this competition depended on this battle!

If he unleashed the Yuanhong sword and exhausted all his power to exhibit the Nine Stars Sword Technique, with the assistance of his innate Dao physique and Nine Revolutions Skill, he would have a great chance of winning.

But Jiang Xiaobai didn’t plan to do that now.

“To break my own shackles, I must confront my difficulties head on!”

“Without this realization, how can I talk about defying the heavens to cultivate immortality, dominating the world, and protecting my loved ones?”

At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai was filled with high fighting spirit!

He did not want to use the Yuanhong sword, nor did he want to use the Nine Stars Sword Technique. Now, he fully intended to use the Fighting Battle Scriptures to unleash his full potential!

“Block it for me!”
