Chapter 284: Gale Wins
It's impossible to sleep because the show is about to start.
In the center of the venue is a flat sandy area. The sand is golden and fine, sparkling with tiny light in the sunlight.
At the edge of the sand, there was a thick stone pillar standing at intervals, with burning torches wrapped around it.
On both sides of the venue, huge iron cages were slowly dragged in.
The cage was made of heavy iron bars, each as thick as a grown man's arm.
Tyrant on the left was pacing anxiously in the cage, letting out low roars from time to time, his voice filled with desire and excitement for going to the battlefield.
There was an innate arrogance in Ji Feng's eyes, and he showed a nonchalant calmness in the face of the surrounding noise and the upcoming battle.
Only occasionally a dull roar would emanate from the depths of his throat, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
Lin Batian laughed heartily and said, "This Batian is indeed domineering. His name is exactly the same as mine. He will definitely bring me good luck."
Liu Ruomei said coldly, "Are you going to let them go so easily?"
"Hehe... Sister, please don't say such things. Is it really that important whether I let you go or not?
We all know it clearly in our hearts, why not bid?
They have a lot of treasures now." Lin Batian said with a smile: "I want the secret book, and I'll give you the zither..."
"And the Qingshuang Sword."
"The Qingshuang Sword will naturally belong to me, but all those jewelry and other miscellaneous things will belong to you. How about it?" Lin Batian said softly.
Liu Ruomei took a sip of water, looked at him and said, "That's not impossible, let's do it this way!"
The two of them didn't take Master Bai and the others seriously at all.
The two lions on the field have already started fighting, and the huge Tyrant has shown an overwhelming advantage.
With its strong physique, every swing of its claws and every attack it makes are carried with overwhelming force.
Ji Feng seemed overwhelmed by this force and could only dodge and move constantly. Although he was agile, he could hardly find an opportunity to counterattack.
Batian's claws barely brushed past Jifeng's back time and time again, bringing up strands of hair, and every strike made the audience boil.
The audience in the stands went completely crazy, and the crowd rose and fell like a surging wave.
The men's faces flushed, they shouted at the top of their lungs, veins bulging on their necks.
The women also completely ignored their usual reserve, waving their arms and screaming.
The children were squeezing in and out of the crowd, jumping around excitedly.
"Great! That's awesome!" The cheers were deafening.
"We're sure to make a lot of money this time!" A big man with a stubble on his face waved his hands vigorously and shouted at the top of his lungs, his face filled with almost crazy expectations.
"Isn't it! Let me tell you, I bet 1000 taels this time and sold my house. Batian will definitely win this time!" A tall and thin man standing next to him had a distorted look on his face, his eyes full of the madness of a desperate gamble.
"Batian, hit it hard! Tear it into pieces!" A wealthy businessman dressed in silk, who was usually dignified and steady, completely lost his composure at this moment, and the folding fan in his hand was waving so hard that it made a whistling sound.
Amid the enthusiastic cheers of the crowd, Batian became more and more courageous. Jifeng was pressed step by step, and blood marks gradually appeared on his body. The bright red blood dripped onto the golden sand, which was shocking to see.
Batian showed a hint of sarcasm on his face. Lin Batian raised his head and laughed: "Batian is really domineering! This time, I'm afraid I will win another 30,000 taels!"
Liu Ruomei smiled and said, "That's right, this time it's a win-win for both of us!"
The woman's eyes were filled with joy, and her voice trembled slightly with excitement: "With this money, I can pay off the rest of my debt."
Not far away, Liu Ruyan raised her head high, her cold gaze fixed on Shiwu and said:
"If we make any money this time, I want that little boy.
I want him to be my slave and I want to whip him endlessly!"
Liu Ruomei looked at Liu Ruyan dotingly and said, "Haha, my dear granddaughter, whatever you want, grandma will satisfy you."
Fifty thousand taels of silver is a small matter, but it would be quite embarrassing if you really lost it.
His voice was low:
"Wanwan! I don't know if we can win this time.
Well, actually, I don’t really care whether I win or not, but a little more money is always good.”
Lin Wanwan looked at Jifeng and felt a little anxious. She just felt that Jifeng must be smarter than Batian, but if she really wanted to have any confidence in it, that was not the case.
"Hayate, are you okay? Or are you going to surrender?"
Hearing Lin Wanwan's words, it used all its strength to squeeze out a low roar from the depths of its throat.
With a roar, it turned into golden lightning, its speed increased suddenly, and it moved quickly around Tyrant, leaving a trail of afterimages.
Batian was dizzy and couldn't keep up with the rhythm.
Taking advantage of its hesitation, Jifeng went around behind it, jumped high, and bit its belly hard, with his teeth embedded deeply.
Batian let out a shrill scream, twisted his body wildly, and swung his claws desperately to shake off the gale, but he had no power to exert force.
Blood gushed out of its abdomen, leaving a large bloodstain on the sand.
As his strength faded, Batian's struggle gradually weakened, and he finally fell to the ground with a loud bang.
Ji Feng stood aside, breathing heavily. Although he was covered in wounds, his eyes were full of victory.
He roared towards the stands, then fell to the ground with a bang.
The entire Colosseum was dead silent, with only the heavy breathing of the wind echoing in the air.
Suddenly, there was a noise among the crowd.
"How is this possible?" A bearded gambler, eyes wide open and face full of disbelief, screamed madly:
"That little bastard can actually beat Tyrant?
It’s over, it’s over, I’m all gone, my 1000 taels are gone!
Not far away, several figures collapsed to the ground. One of them clutched his hair tightly with both hands, his body shaking violently, and burst into tears:
"I'm done! I sold all my houses and shops without telling my family, and even mortgaged them for several thousand taels of silver!"
Now it’s all gone, everything is gone!” “That’s impossible!”
A middle-aged man in a robe suddenly stood up and pointed at the Colosseum's management office, his veins bulging. "This must be something your casino did! Otherwise, how could the skinny Ji Feng defeat Ba Tian?"
"Yes, there must be something fishy!"
In a blink of an eye, questioning and cursing sounds arose one after another, and the entire Colosseum fell into chaos.
Soon the manager of the Colosseum came out and said, "Everyone, please be quiet for a moment! Listen to me!"
When the noise died down a bit, he cleared his throat and said with a bit of helplessness:
“The result of this game was beyond everyone’s expectations, and we were deeply surprised as well.
To be honest, our Colosseum has always adhered to the principles of fairness and justice in hosting competitions, and every beast has been strictly inspected and evaluated before the competition.
Everyone knows that the battle between wild beasts is full of uncertainty.
Even the most experienced animal trainers and analysts cannot predict the outcome with 100% certainty.
That’s part of the charm of animal fighting, isn’t it?
But please believe that there is absolutely no behind-the-scenes manipulation in our Colosseum and we have not interfered with the course of the competition."
