Chapter 2801
When Yih witnessed the unfolding scene, he couldn’t help but feel a swell of emotions. He never imagined that the Hall Master of the Heavenly Dragon Hall would resort to using the ring for business dealings!
If he hadn’t been ousted from Demon Emperor City, he certainly wouldn’t allow Kai to engage in such antics. After all, what was the issue of lacking spirit coins? He could easily have handed over a billion or even eight hundred million without a second thought!
“I’m going up first! I’ll go first!”
A lean man, barely at the first rank of the Combined Body realm, rushed forward, handing over a million spirit coins before darting toward the ring!
“Hey buddy, with your first-grade strength in the Combination Realm, aren’t you just asking for trouble?”
Someone shouted out!
“A first-grade Combination Realm fighter looking for trouble? This guy must be desperate! I’ll go up and knock him out of the ring!”
The skinny man climbed the stage with an air of confidence!
Kai observed this monkey-like character, feeling a wave of disbelief wash over him!
This was truly a situation where people risk their lives for money!
For the sake of riches, he was willing to throw his life away!
Everyone knew that in the ring, life and death were not to be taken lightly!
“Let’s bring up the next contestant…”
Kai remarked to Liu Ruyan after glancing at the skinny challenger!
“Kid, what’s that supposed to mean? Are you looking down on me?”
“I’m still on the stage! We haven’t even started our match yet!”
“You’re letting the next person come up when I’m still here, you are…”
The skinny man fumed, his words spilling out in frustration as he confronted Kai!
Growing impatient, Kai didn’t let him finish. With a casual motion, he slapped out!
The guy soared a dozen meters before landing outside the ring!
Fortunately, Kai hadn’t struck him with full force; otherwise, the thin man would have ended up lifeless!
The crowd erupted in laughter at the sight, finding it absurd that someone at the first level of the Harmony Realm thought they could compete on the stage!
Before long, a second-ranked Harmony Realm practitioner stepped up and immediately launched an attack on Kai!
Yet Kai barely acknowledged him and simply said, “Next…”
As soon as Kai’s words left his lips, he slapped the second-ranked cultivator away as well!
In this manner, over ten challengers attempted to face Kai, only to be sent flying with a single slap each time!
Eventually, the audience began to calm down and fully grasp the situation!
“Wow, this guy is actually play-acting as a weakling, but his strength is far beyond that of a second rank in the Combined Body realm.”
“I see now why he’s so confident in letting people bet a million spirit coins against him!”
“Thank goodness I didn’t step up; I would have been humiliated!”
Whispers ran through the crowd, and no one dared to take the stage any longer!
Seeing this, Kai called out loudly, “Just half a million spirit coins to compete with me!”
“After all this fighting, I’m quite exhausted, completely out of energy!”
Kai feigned exhaustion, panting heavily for effect!
Watching Kai’s antics, Liu Ruyan couldn’t help but chuckle!
She hadn’t anticipated that the typically fierce Kai could display such a humorous side!
At that moment, Liu Ruyan found herself liking Kai even more!
Moreover, his charm and wit left a lasting impression on her…
“Well, since no one dares to compete anymore, I’ll just collect these bets!”
Kai declared, placing all fifty million spirit coins and other resources into his storage ring!
“Mr. Chen, today’s haul is quite impressive!”
The Third Elder chuckled!
“An impressive haul indeed! We can finally buy a mansion, so you and the Ichthus Demon Emperor won’t have to squeeze into a tiny room anymore!”
Kai replied with a smug grin!
Amid envious glances from the onlookers, Kai and his companions gathered their spirit coins and resources and began to depart!
However, they had barely taken a few steps when a man suddenly jumped out, blocking their path.
