Chapter 2797
The tile tank observed as Gao Qijie brought his palm down, seemingly without any resistance from Wajang. With a heavy heart, he closed his eyes, bracing for the inevitable demise of the general!
However, just as Gao Qijie’s hand was about to make contact with Wajang, an unexpected and powerful suction force yanked Wajang’s body backward, causing him to crash heavily outside the ring!
The icy frost encasing Wajang shattered upon impact, restoring his ability to move!
Gao Qijie, taken by surprise, paused momentarily, then furrowed his brow and scanned the crowd. “Who intervened to save this guy?” he demanded.
It was clear to Gao Qijie that someone had secretly aided Wajang; otherwise, he would have perished! But now that Wajang lay outside the ring, it meant he had already lost, and Gao Qijie could not take further action against him!
Wajang, filled with confusion, turned to the crowd behind him. His gaze landed on Kai, lingering there for a moment!
The aura of the suction force that had just saved him felt strikingly similar to Kai’s presence, and it even seemed to carry the essence of the beast race within it!
While Wajang suspected that Kai was the one who had rescued him, he remained silent. After all, admitting this would mean offending the Gao family!
Kai’s choice to remain inconspicuous was clearly a tactic to avoid confrontation with the Gao family, so Wajang refrained from mentioning him.
Gao Qijie, now visibly furious, surveyed the crowd, noting the lack of acknowledgment from anyone. With a fierce expression, he declared, “Now that Wajang has lost, all these spirit coins and resources rightfully belong to me.”
“I’ll use these to up the stakes with an additional 10 million spirit coins for the next round. Who dares to step up and challenge me?”
“The one who just made a secret move, if you have the guts, come up here and face me…”
Unaware of the identity of Wajang’s savior, Gao Qijie issued this bold challenge, hoping to lure the mysterious benefactor into the spotlight!
The crowd exchanged glances, but no one dared to ascend the stage. After all, if they couldn’t handle the tile tank, who would risk facing Gao Qijie?
Curiosity buzzed among the spectators; they were eager to identify the hero who had secretly aided Wajang!
“Mr. Chen, it’s your turn to fight, no need to feign modesty any longer…” The Third Elder smiled at Kai!
Kai had attempted to sneak out, but the Third Elder had already caught on!
“I’ll step up to ensure I can afford a bigger house…”
With that, Kai slowly made his way toward the ring.
Gao Qijie waited impatiently, ready to taunt the crowd when he noticed Kai emerging from the audience, advancing steadily toward the ring!
Seeing Kai approach the stage left Gao Qijie in shock; he realized that Kai was merely at the second level of the Combined Body Realm and had the audacity to challenge him?
The tile tank, observing Kai’s approach, became increasingly convinced that it was indeed Kai who had come to his rescue!
The crowd below, astonished, turned their attention to Kai!
“Who is this guy? How does he dare to step up with such limited strength?”
“This kid is bold; he’s only at the second rank of the Harmony Realm, yet he’s challenging a third-rank cultivator. Is he out of his mind?”
“He’s either desperate for money or just foolish; who does he think he is?”
“This is turning out to be quite the spectacle; I can’t wait to see what happens!”
The murmurs of the crowd echoed, with everyone anticipating that Kai would face severe humiliation and likely be thrown from the ring!
Or perhaps he might even meet his end in the arena!
Despite the allure of spirit coins and resources, no one was willing to risk themselves without a fight.
Meanwhile, Liu Ruyan and a few others watched from the sidelines, grinning in anticipation, eager to see the unfolding drama!
