Chapter 149: Chapter 149

On the duel arena below, the slave who had won nine consecutive battles possessed incredible strength, especially in terms of physical strength which was exceptionally formidable, his dark skin seeming as though it was cast from refined steel. However, his understanding was lacking, and his Martial Arts Realm was somewhat low, having only just begun to perceive the essence of Gravity and not even reaching the First Layer.

On the contrary, his opponent, the man in the black robe, lacked physical strength but had decent perceptiveness. He had already grasped the First Layer Wind Force. However, with just the First Layer Wind Force, the man in black was still no match for the slave, who used his rich combat experience to corner him into a desperate situation.

But who would have expected that at the critical moment between life and death, the potential of the man in black was suddenly unleashed. He grasped the Double Wind Force on the spot, instantly turning the tide of the battle. He began to inflict heavy injuries on the slave repeatedly, wielding a long knife with amazing speed and agile movement techniques.

"No! I am unwilling to accept this; I have won nine consecutive battles, I must regain my freedom."

The wounds on the slave's body multiplied, his body grew weaker, and a look of despair finally appeared in his eyes as he roared with reluctance.

"Heh, sorry about this, but your nine consecutive victories are destined to end by my hand. You want freedom? Maybe in your next life—die."

The man in black coldly smirked, his knife blade mercilessly slashing across the slave's neck, sending blood spurting out instantly, causing his body to collapse powerlessly into the pool of blood.

"Damn it, I bet a hundred Mid-Grade Essence Stones on that slave, all gone to waste."

"Haha, I bet two hundred Mid-Grade Essence Stones on that man in black; I'm going to make a fortune now."

The Martial Artists in the surrounding stands began to discuss among themselves; some were joyful while others were sorrowful. Every battle in the Duel Arena could be bet on, leading some to make fortunes while others lost everything. Find this chapter's source on *.

"In this battle, Hei Feng wins. Someone, throw that slave's corpse to the back mountain to feed the wild dogs. Next up, Hei Feng, do you want to continue? If you do, the rewards you receive will be doubled," said a middle-aged man in a brown robe who stepped onto the arena. He had a very strong aura, a Sect Martial Realm powerhouse.

"Continue, of course I'll continue. I've just had a breakthrough; I can now dominate anyone in the lower True Martial Realm without any rivals. Today, I intend to kill joyously." The man known as Hei Feng laughed wildly. His breakthrough in battle and grasp of the Double Wind Force filled him with confidence, believing he could sweep through all of his low level peers in the True Martial Realm.

"Very well, are there any challengers from the lower True Martial Realm below willing to fight? If you kill Hei Feng, all of his possessions and the rewards he received will belong to you, and our Duel Arena will also provide corresponding rewards," announced the Sect Martial Realm host, levitating in the air, surveying the audience around the arena and raising his voice.

With tens of thousands of spectators in this Duel Arena, it was easy to find some people from the lower True Martial Realm, but if nobody came forward, the Duel Arena would have to arrange an opponent for Hei Feng; either a slave of equal cultivation or a demon beast.

After the host finished speaking, the arena buzzed with discussion, but no one was willing to step onto the stage to fight. Having grasped the Double Wind Force and killed the slave who had nine consecutive wins, Hei Feng was quite powerful. Among those in the lower True Martial Realm, he definitely ranked above average. Perhaps some in the crowd could defeat him, but none were willing to take the risk since stepping into the arena meant a battle to the death unless the opponent decided to spare you; otherwise, defeat meant only death awaited.

Zhao Letian suddenly stood up and walked towards the arena. Before stepping onto the stage, he bet all the Primordial Stones he had on him, betting that he would win.

Certainly, going into the duel wasn't just for earning a few Primordial Stones. More importantly, he wished to force out his own potential through this life-and-death fight that left no route of retreat, seeking an opportunity for a breakthrough to the True Martial Third Realm. His cultivation level had long reached the Peak of True Martial Second Realm, and even more, his realm was already ahead of his cultivation level. Now all he needed was an opportunity to break through to the True Martial Third Realm.

"Hurry, hurry, bet on the young master to win."

Qin Hai was the first to react. He immediately rushed to the betting area, took out all his Primordial Stones, and bet all on Zhao Letian to win.

How strong Zhao Letian was, he knew very well. This Hei Feng was destined to die. He was going to make a fortune this time.

"Let's go, bet on the young master to win." The Xinghai Five Tigers and others followed suit, each taking out their own Primordial Stones, all betting on Zhao Letian to win, equally full of confidence in Zhao Letian's strength.

Regrettably, they didn't have many Primordial Stones on them, and even combined, it couldn't match the fraction of Zhao Letian's amount. Even if they won, they could only make a small fortune.

"True Martial Second Realm? What is your name?" Zhao Letian did not hide his cultivation level. The Sect Martial Realm host, somewhat surprised, looked at him and asked with a deep voice, considering it commendable that someone from the True Martial Second Realm dared to challenge Hei Feng from the True Martial Third Realm.

"Zhao Letian." Zhao Letian said straightforwardly.

"Alright, go on up. There are no rules on the stage; as long as you can kill your opponent, you may. Otherwise, you can only be killed by your opponent." The host nodded, casting a surge of True Yuan Power into the stele next to the platform, which immediately showed Zhao Letian's name and his True Martial Second Realm cultivation.

"Someone from the True Martial Second Realm dares to challenge Hei Feng? This kid must not want to live, I bet Hei Feng wins."

"Hei Feng's strength is incredibly formidable; many from the True Martial Third Realm are not his match, only those few famous geniuses in the city possibly could. Otherwise, any ordinary person from the True Martial Second Realm going up is almost undoubtedly doomed. I also bet on Hei Feng to win."

"The name Zhao Letian sounds familiar, seems like I've heard it somewhere in the last few days? Never mind, perhaps this kid has some powerful trump card. I'll bet ten Mid-Grade Essence Stones on him and see."

The audience began discussing and started placing their bets, betting on Zhao Letian at a two-to-one payoff, and on Hei Feng at one point five to one payoff. Very few people bet on Zhao Letian, with the vast majority placing their money on Hei Feng to win, as he had already demonstrated his strong capabilities before, while Zhao Letian's strength was unknown to them, naturally invoking caution.

However, those who had heard about Zhao Letian defeating Nie Yun quietly bet on Zhao Letian to win, though they weren't sure whether this Zhao Letian was the same one who had defeated Nie Yun. They considered it a gamble on luck; but if he was indeed the same person, they were certainly going to make a fortune.

"True Martial Second Realm? Kid, I really don't know whether to say you're commendable for your courage or just overestimating your ability, daring to challenge me. Where does your confidence come from?" Hei Feng stared at Zhao Letian, sneering, as in his view, Zhao Letian was just prey delivered to his doorstep, here to give him Primordial Stones.

"True Martial Third Realm, just the Double Wind Force, I also don't know where your confidence comes from." Zhao Letian took out a Spiritual Weapon Longsword with a flip of his hand, his True Yuan Power surged throughout his body, and simultaneously, he directly emitted a Triple Sword Force.
