Chapter 72 Causing a Sensation
Lei Ting threw in two thousand Yuan Force pills again, her net-worth was quite high, shocking Tuoba Ye.
Unfortunately, Tuoba Ye couldn’t take out other treasures, which he had on him, to exchange for the Yuan Force pills, otherwise, he could still bet some more and profit more Yuan Force pills. Some treasures which he had could easily attract others’ attention and suspicion if he brought them out.
Even if he didn’t use the Yuan Force pills for cultivation, they could still be used to exchange for other treasures, later on.
Tuoba Ye was a new member of the sect, the things he lacked the most were Yuan Force pills. If he had them, he could use them to purchase necessary resources.
“Lei Ting, do you still have Yuan force pills?” Tuoba Ye finally planned to borrow from Lei Ting.
He had wagered altogether eleven hundred fifty Yuan Force pills but they were still too less.
“I usually carry only two thousand Yuan Force pills, why do you ask?” said Lei Ting.
“Ah! Nevermind.” Tuoba Ye was a little disappointed but didn’t nag about it.
“Leader, are you still thinking of waging on yourself?” Lei Ting was somewhat astonished.
Tuoba Ye said: “Of course, I want to stake it all!”
“If you really are thinking that, I can help you.” Lei Ting said seriously.
“Really!? You have a way?” Tuoba Ye was astonished.
“How much Yuan Force pills do you want?” Lei Ting asked.
She was baffled with herself, she originally had the intentions to trick Tuoba Ye but now, she seemed to be helping him.
What was going on, she was unable to make head or tail of it.
“The more the better!” Tuoba Ye had full confidence on himself.
“All right. I will try to get them before the tournament begins tomorrow.” Lei Ting took her leave immediately.
Once the tournament began, the bettings on the champions.h.i.+p would close up, so she was somewhat anxious.
“Why am I being anxious for him?” Lei Ting shook her head, not wanting to think of this issue.
Tuoba Ye felt grateful to Lei Ting, even if she couldn’t get the Yuan Force pills, solely her intentions were enough.
Tuoba Ye continued cultivating and only stopped his cultivation on the first glimmer of light the next day.
Yang Bin and others were there to welcome him when he just exited the cabin.
“Leader, you woke up so early!”
“You guys are much early. Let’s move quickly to the tournament area.” said Tuoba Ye.
“Leader, I have already made arrangements. Over one hundred people of the Mythic group will go to the tournament to cheer you and others will remain behind to take care of the medicinal gardens.” said Yang Bin.
Tuoba Ye nodded his head: “The arrangements are not bad, let’s do that.”
Over one hundred people cheering him was enough, Tuoba Ye didn’t like being ostentatious.
Moreover, the tournament was held at the central area of the Immortal Clouds valley which could hold hundred thousand spectators, at most. If all the outer sect disciples went then there wouldn’t be enough s.p.a.ce.
“Leader, where is miss Lei Ting? How about we invite her?” Yang Bin asked.
“Lei Ting went to gather Yuan force pills, she should be able to hurry up before the tournament begins. We will leave first.” said Tuoba Ye.
Every year, the year-end great tournament was the most lively event at the Immortal Clouds valley; rankings among the million outer sect disciples would be decided through it and even the seniors of the Pill Cauldron sect paid attention to this event.
Reportedly, the Pill Cauldron sect’s elders will appear personally to be the judge, if some outer sect disciples caught their interest then those elders would take them as disciples once they became inner sect disciples.
The qualified partic.i.p.ants for the year-end great tournament would display everything they had, in the hopes of getting a good ranking.
In comparison to the last hundred years, the partic.i.p.ants today were the strongest; not only were there some old outer sect disciples, there were also some powerful new outer sect disciples who had the potential to be dark horse.
And Tuoba Ye was one of the new outer sect disciples who had the most potential to become the dark horse. With Lei Ting’s proclamation all around, his reputation had become extremely big.
Just because of this, the betting odds for him to win was extremely high. Actually, other than those champions.h.i.+p favorites, the betting odds for other outer sect disciples to win the champions.h.i.+p was very high, in order to make more profits.
Even so, majority of people still wagered ruthlessly on champions.h.i.+p favorites like Bi Yuntian.
Naturally, their betting odds were very low but everyone were still wagering on them. Those that wagered on Tuoba Ye were just taking chances, so they didn’t wager much in fear of losing their bets.
Not long after, Tuoba Ye and others reached the area.
The place was very crowded and lively.
“Quite a lot of people, it seems we are late, it won’t be possible to find a good seat.” Yang Bin was depressed: “Next time, we should send people to occupy seats at night, otherwise we won’t be able to cheer for our leader.”
Seeing people everywhere, Tuoba Ye also frowned.
He could see that the majority of the people were in groups, they were clearly divided according to their groups and they naturally wouldn’t let someone else take their seats.
“Isn’t this Tuoba Ye? Don’t you have a seat?” Duan Tianmeng said, smiling.
Although he was defeated by Tuoba Ye, he was not afraid at this moment.
Pill Cauldron sect had dispatched several inner sect elders for this tournament, so who among these outer sect disciples would dare to act recklessly.
“Could it be you prepared seats for us?” Tuoba Ye laughed.
“We have seats but they aren’t for you.” Duan Tianmeng said coldly.
“Then let it be.” Tuoba Ye didn’t want to cause trouble.
He could see that Duan Tianmeng wanted to infuriate him, and he would be out of luck, if he let his anger break out.
Seeing Tuoba Ye not taken in, Duan Tianmeng didn’t continue arguing.
He walked in the crowd and said loudly: “The one who proclaimed to win the champions.h.i.+p, Tuoba Ye is here!”
This loud voice immediately attracted the attention of hundred thousand outer sect disciples towards Tuoba Ye.
Touba Ye's reputation was very big but they hadn't seen him before and only heard about his appearance from others.
Not long ago, top ten groups all proclaimed that Tuoba Ye wanted to win the champions.h.i.+p. This event had made Tuoba Ye notorious and so everyone was interested in him.
Seeing Tuoba Ye, many outer sect disciples began discussing: "Look, that is Tuoba Ye, he entered the sect only this year and he is also only about ten years old, but he unexpectedly is so arrogant.”
"Reportedly, Tuoba Ye defeated Duan Tianmeng and Leng Yidao, he is a dark horse!"
“Dark horse, many powerful new disciples have appeared this year, that Tuoba Ye might barely enter the top five among them which is not too powerful. Look at his odds and you will know that the probability of him winning the champions.h.i.+p is very low.”
……
Tuoba Ye heard these comments but he didn't pay any mind to them.
However, Yang Bin and others couldn't endure it: "That Duan Tianmeng is too hateful! Unexpectedly making leader become the focus point of discussions."
"Doesn't matter." Tuoba Ye really didn't take it to heart.
In this world, strength speaks, anything you say is okay, if you are powerful.
So long as Tuoba Ye won the champions.h.i.+p, all these discussions would naturally be over and these spectators would conversely start to admire him.
Right at this time, Lei Ting appeared: "I made in time."
"Lei Ting, how much Yuan Force pills did you gather?" Tuoba Ye asked.
"Time was too tight, so I could only collect twenty thousand Yuan Force pills!" Lei Ting said, smiling.
"That is sufficient! We will first go to wager them and then find seats to observe the tournament." Tuoba Ye said: "Lei Ting, these Yuan Force pills can be considered to be borrowed by me and after the tournament ends, I will return them to you. Thank you!"
There was still half an hour left before the tournament began so they needed to hurry up.
"Leader, what are you still being polite for!?” Lei Ting said indifferently.
Twenty thousand Yuan Force pills were a big amount to Tuoba Ye, but it was not worth raising an issue to Lei Ting.
Yuan Force pill fell under the lowest level Spirit pills and it was not even regarded as a rank one Spirit pill. Its value was not high and it had some value only because it was the most basic currency used.
A rank one Spirit tool required over thousand Yuan Force pills and rank two Spirit tool required over ten thousand.
So long as one became an inner sect disciple, they will know that Yuan Force pills really didn't have much value.
Tuoba Ye also didn’t continue to be polite, he then went to wager personally.
There were many spectators who were paying attention to Tuoba Ye and they all followed him. Among them were Duan Tianmeng, Leng Yidao, Lu Junfeng, Lu Haicheng and so on.
"Tuoba Ye, you are not going to wager on yourself, right?" Lu Junfeng said, smiling.
"Who I wager on, is it any of your business? Get lost!" Tuoba Ye said coldly.
He didn't have any good words for his enemies, not rus.h.i.+ng to attack them was good enough.
As he was scolded, Lu Junfeng's whole body trembled with anger: "Tuoba Ye, you are so unbridled, let's see until when you will continue to be so."
"That is my own problem, does it have any relation to you?" Tuoba Ye said coldly.
Lu Junfeng didn’t speak anymore so as to avoid looking for trouble.
But he didn't leave either, intending to see Tuoba Ye's wager.
Walking to the betting area, Tuoba Ye took out the twenty thousand Yuan Force pills, which Lei Ting had just given him, and said: "I want to wager on Tuoba Ye winning the champions.h.i.+p, twenty thousand Yuan Force pills!"
"Ah! What are you saying?" The person in charge of receiving bets was shocked.
"Is there a rule which says you can't wager on yourself?" Tuoba Ye said flatly.
Being able to open betting booths at the Immortal Clouds valley meant their background was not simple, hence, Tuoba Ye's tone wasn't ice-cold so as to avoid offending too many people.
"You can, of course you can! You are certain you want to wager twenty thousand Yuan Force pills?"
"This is twenty thousand Yuan Force pills, you can check it!" Tuoba Ye didn’t wish to talk much.
That person checked for a while, then he made a record and gave a receipt to Tuoba Ye.
The betting process was really simple.
Those people who had followed Tuoba Ye, seeing Tuoba Ye actually wager twenty thousand Yuan Force pills on himself, were all stupefied.
After a moment, those people rejoiced thinking it was sure to be Tuoba Ye's loss.
"Tuoba Ye, you still think you can win the champions.h.i.+p!? You have just squandered these twenty thousand Yuan Force pills!" Leng Yidao laughed.
Tuoba Ye was calm: "It is only twenty thousand Yuan Force pills, it doesn't matter even if I lost it."
Seeing Tuoba Ye so indifferent made those people who wanted to see a scene, a little disappointed.
"Is this Tuoba Ye really foolish or does he really have the chance to win the champions.h.i.+p?" Many people started guessing.
Those that had comparatively big courage fished out Yuan Force pills one after another, with the thoughts of taking risk, and wagered them on Tuoba Ye.
The people in charge of bets were very happy, Tuoba Ye's odds rate was very high precisely to draw in more people to bet on him. Like that, those people that opened the betting booths will make even more profits.
Only somewhat unfortunate was that from beginning to end, there were not many people who wagered on Tuoba Ye. Adding all of them didn’t even surpa.s.s fifty thousand Yuan Force pills and among that, Tuoba Ye and his companions had wagered twenty six thousand Yuan Force pills.
Seeing people continue to bet on Tuoba Ye, they looked forward to continue this momentum and make some more Yuan Force pills until the final second.
