Chapter 373 Gambling Frenzy

Lin Mu's hands were bleeding and his face was pale. He looked at Xing Yun on the stage and forced a smile.

In this competition, Xing Yun made many concessions to him, but even so, he could not beat Xing Yun without using two consecutive sword skills.

Although he hid a lot of strength, who could know whether Xing Yun was hiding his strength?

To outsiders, his hands were bloody and his injuries were serious. Xing Yun was pale and sat on the ground. Both of them seemed to be trying their best. But in fact, Lin Mu did not use all his strength, and Xing Yun probably did too!

However, after this game, Lin Mu finally had a bottom line in his heart.

Xing Yun's strength is mainly reflected in his sword moves. He can instantly send out dozens of sword moves at once! This is an incredible skill!

In addition, Xing Yun's control of the situation is also perfect, and Lin Mu is also amazed. From beginning to end, he has been seizing the initiative, but at the last moment, the initiative still fell into Xing Yun's hands!

It was with this momentary advantage that Xing Yun forced him off the stage with a wave of sharp attacks.

Xing Yun's performance in sword moves was stunning and impressive. Lin Mu even suspected that Xing Yun had hidden unknown sword moves!

Xing Yun also had an advantage in flying swords. The two top-grade flying swords were extremely sharp, and the sharpness made him smack his lips. He had never seen such sharp flying swords.

What made Lin Mu even more helpless was that Xing Yun, a pure sword cultivator, actually had a micro-magic weapon-level defensive magic weapon!

Whether it was attacking or defending, Xing Yun was at ease. Until now, only Lin Mu forced him to show some of his true strength, but this part of his strength deeply shocked all the Tianxiao Realm cultivators.

"Xing Yun is really too powerful!" Many cultivators couldn't help but sigh.

"Sweep, sweep everyone!" A spiritual Silence cultivator was very excited.

"It's a pity for Lin Mu!" Some people felt unfair for Lin Mu.

"Lin Mu deserved to lose!" Someone gloated: "He bullied some weak people before, but when he met the real strong man Xing Yun, he was beaten down!"

Some cultivators who bet on Lin Mu immediately retorted angrily: "Didn't you see that Xing Yun won in a very thrilling way? If Lin Mu hadn't been besieged by Xing Yun's two flying swords at the last moment, could Xing Yun have won? He had exhausted his spiritual power at that time!"

"That's right, who can force Xing Yun to this point."

"In the next competition, I believe Lin Mu will be able to counterattack!" Feng Hou also joined in and said firmly: "He won't keep losing!"

Some Jindan stage cultivators were also amazed.

"Who is this Xing Yun?" Cai Heng, the head of Wanjian Sect, frowned and looked at the head of Tianjian Sect beside him.

The head of Tianjian Sect also had a puzzled look on his face: "It is said that he is a casual cultivator, but how can a casual cultivator have such powerful strength? How can he perform such a shocking sword move? Although he won this battle in a mess, he did not use sword skills!"

Cai Heng was thoughtful, and several ideas flashed through his mind, but they were all denied one by one, and then he gave up helplessly.

"Xing Yun is too mysterious!" The heads of the other major sects also praised him.

In front of the hall, Wushuang Zhenren said with regret: "It's a bit strange that Lin Mu lost."

Turning around and looking at Yinxin, Wushuang Zhenren seemed to have realized something: "Could it be that he deliberately admitted defeat? Didn't he already comprehend two consecutive sword skills before? Could it be that he was in a good state at the time and didn't really comprehend it?"

Yinxin looked indifferent, without sadness or joy, and said lightly: "This competition is not the final battle. Temporary victory is nothing. Lin Mu can also enter the top four. Everything will be clear at that time."

Wushuang Zhenren nodded with a smile.

At this time, Qiu Wei landed, stood on the high platform, and announced loudly: "Xing Yun won this competition!"

The audience burst into cheers and discussions again, and it was very lively.

Lin Mu looked calm, put away the Xuanjin Sword, and flew back to Yinxin and the others.

Taking out Shengsheng Hematopoietic Pill and Hehe Hemostatic Pill, Lin Mu, with the help of Luo Yan, hurried to heal his wounds. With the help of these two healing medicines, Lin Mu's bleeding stopped and his wounds gradually healed. The effect of the medicine was excellent, but it would take a few days to recover.

The competition between masters was extremely dangerous and it was very easy to be seriously injured. Even if Xing Yun showed mercy, Lin Mu was still seriously injured.

The competition between Lin Mu and Xing Yun was a peak battle that attracted all the attention. The competitions of other people had ended one after another. Lian Shu won again. When he returned to the front of the hall, the others decided to leave.

Before leaving, Lin Mu glanced at the southwest corner of the square intentionally or unintentionally, and met Sikong Pan's smiling eyes. After the two nodded slightly, Lin Mu hurriedly left with Yin Xin and others.

After this competition, he wanted to show his strength against Xing Yun, and improve his level as soon as possible.

Looking at Lin Mu's leaving back, Sikong Pan smiled and retracted his gaze.

As he said to Lin Mu before, Lin Mu lost this competition just right, which was perfect.

He was confident that he could make a lot of money in this gambling game!

What made him even happier was that Lin Mu had forced Xing Yun to this point without using his sword skills. If he showed all his strength, there was a great hope of defeating Xing Yun!

By then, compared with Xing Yun, who also went to the Tianxiao Realm, he could earn a huge amount of spiritual stones and gain both fame and fortune! Xing Yun, however, could not even defeat the cultivators of the Tianxiao Realm, and his reputation was ruined! In comparison, he would definitely be able to win back a city and firmly gain the upper hand!

Of course, all this is closely related to Lin Mu. Lin Mu carries all his hopes and is decisive!

In this bet, he also operated according to the assumption that Lin Mu could win the first place.

No matter what, even if Lin Mu loses in the decisive battle, he must win Lin Mu over!

Now it seems that Lin Mu's hope of counterattack is at least 50%!

After that, Sikong Pan began to adjust the odds of all the players with a smile on his face.

Among the remaining twelve cultivators, the odds of all of them began to soar!

Lin Mu's odds soared from 50 times before to 100 times now!

But the increase in the number of cultivators betting on him was not much.

Because the odds of others increased more!

For a cultivator like Luo Chen, the odds are as high as 500 times!

But no one is betting on him. He has only won one game by chance now, and there is no hope of entering the top four, let alone taking the first place. No one is stupid, and there are not so many spiritual stones that can be thrown away at random!

There are many cultivators who hope to enter the top four, but many people are betting crazily!

Xu Hai, the odds are as high as 300 times!

There are also many cultivators betting on him.

Gu Yun, the odds are also as high as 300 times, and there are also many cultivators betting on him!

The 300-fold odds make everyone crazy!

Getting rich overnight is not a dream!

If the odds of these few people are reasonable, but the odds of the remaining two people are incredible. I don’t know what the white-clothed cultivator is thinking.

Chu Zhen’s current record is nine wins and one loss, ranking second, but the odds are as high as 400 times!

Many people are crazy and scramble to bet on Chu Zhen.

But the crazier thing is yet to come. Sikong Pan actually raised the odds for Xing Yun!

Before, the odds for Xing Yun were ten times, and they had always been kept very low, but now they have suddenly soared twenty times, reaching 1 to 200!

Two hundred times the odds!

It's still Xing Yun!

Everyone thought that Sikong Pan was crazy, absolutely crazy.

He dared to offer such odds.

Many people thought that Sikong Pan was negligent when changing the odds, and they could not help but ask repeatedly, but they all got affirmative answers.

The onlookers were completely crazy, and some cultivators who had no intention of participating in the gambling game before were all eager to try, squeezing outside the black crowd, also waiting to bet on Xing Yun!

Sikong Pan and the blue-robed cultivator Dongfang Tanxiao, the green-robed cultivator Ye Xingchen, the three were busy recording the jade slips, and they were very busy.

"I'll offer 10,000 spiritual stones, and take Xingyun!"

"I'll offer 30,000 spiritual stones, and take Xingyun!"

"I'll offer 60,000 spiritual stones, and take Xingyun!"

Most of the cultivators, without exception, took Xingyun!

At this time, the dense crowd was suddenly separated, leaving a path, and a cultivator in green robes walked forward slowly.

Sikong Pan was surprised for a while, and when he looked up, he saw that the person who came was actually a Jindan stage cultivator. After a little surprise, he regained his composure and asked, "What do you want?"

Behind Sikong Pan, the blue-robed cultivator Dongfang Tanxiao looked at the person who came, and his mind turned secretly. He knew this person, he was the late Jindan elder of Wanjian Sect, Gu Hai!

Gu Hai looked at Sikong Pan and said with a smile: "I'll offer one million spiritual stones, and take Xingyun!"

"One million!" Everyone couldn't help but take a breath.

Ye Xingchen, a cultivator in green robe, whispered quietly: "This is too cruel! If Xing Yun really wins, he will have to pay him 200 million spiritual stones!"

"Two hundred million spiritual stones!" Ye Xingchen groaned in grief, feeling his heart bleeding.

He and Sikong Pan have already signed an employment agreement. From now on, Sikong Pan will be his young master. Although he knows that the young master is very rich, he still thinks that the young master's change of the odds is too crazy! It's just giving away spiritual stones!

Dongfang Tanxiao also felt that it was not right. Gu Hai bet a million low-grade spiritual stones at once, which was too cruel!

With so many spiritual stones, to participate in the gambling game, Gu Hai was either just looking for trouble or really wanted to make a fortune!

Like everyone else, he stared at Sikong Pan closely, wanting to see how he would do it.

Sikong Pan smiled, his expression did not change, and said to Gu Hai with a smile: "Of course you can. Please give me one million spiritual stones!"

Sikong Pan's performance made Gu Hai find any flaws. Such a calm performance also surprised him. He wanted to deliberately find fault and test this person. After all, this person's performance was far beyond that of ordinary spiritual solitude cultivators. His demeanor was elegant and noble. Even when he stood in front of Sikong Pan, he felt inferior and looked much more miserable. But when he saw Sikong Pan smiling, he didn't know why a chill suddenly appeared in his heart.

His intuition told him not to act rashly!

With a smile on his face, Gu Hai took out a storage bag, handed it to Sikong Pan, and said with a smile: "One million spiritual stones, all here."

Sikong Pan had a faint smile on his face. He checked the number of spirit stones in the storage bag, then put the storage bag away and said with a smile: "It's exactly one million. I'll open the jade slip for you now."

While speaking, Sikong Pan took out a special blue jade slip and left a spiritual mark in it, recording the number of spirit stones that Gu Hai bet, the date of the bet, and the odds at the time. Then, he handed the blue jade slip to Gu Hai and said with a smile: "If Xing Yun finally wins the first place, you can come to me with this jade slip to receive 200 million low-grade spirit stones!"

"200 million low-grade spirit stones!"

As soon as these words came out, tens of thousands of onlookers burst into cheers and praises, and were very excited.

Everyone went crazy in an instant, and took out spirit stones to bet.

A gambling frenzy began to spread!

It's getting more and more intense!
