Chapter 504: A New Gamble
In the VIP room, several old guys were arguing about which Shaoyang and Malthus were stronger, judging from the strength shown by the two of them at present, Malthus was two years younger and stronger than Shaoyang in terms of talent, even Ernest did not refute this, Malthus in two years will definitely be stronger than the current Shaoyang.
"It's true that your disciple is more talented, but now the competition is for the combat power of the moment, not the potential of the future, no matter what, you will lose the bet between us. At first, Ernest had not boasted so decisively about Haikou, but he was provoked by Hoyle and others, and unconsciously became convinced that Shaoyang would definitely win.
Before, they made a lot of bets, and Ernest not only bet against Hoyle, but also with others, more or less.
Shaoyang's strength was beyond their expectations, so the previous bet, as long as Shaoyang can enter the top ten, Ernest's loss is not big, and once he enters the top three, Ernest will make a lot of money, if he wins the championship again, Ernest's harvest, even these people present will be envious, and judging from the current situation, the probability of Shaoyang winning seems to be really higher.
In the ring, under the bombardment of Shaoyang Wind magic, Malthus was at a disadvantage, and most of the time he was passively beaten.
"Since you're so sure, why don't we raise the stakes a little more? Instead of worrying that Malthus would lose, Hoyle offered to increase the stakes.
"Okay, bet on it, whoever is afraid of whom. Ernest decisively agreed, thought for a moment and proposed a new bet, "I haven't given any good gifts to my two disciples yet, it just so happens that you don't have two wind and water magic crystals with good quality, just bet on them, do you dare." ”
The magic crystals that can make the existence of the two great elders as a bet will naturally not be ordinary magic crystals, Ernest did not say it explicitly, but almost everyone here knows that what he wants is those two magic crystals, and Hoyle has three magic crystals in the late stage of the Holy Domain in his hands, in addition to the wind system and the water system, there is also a fire system, and almost all the vice presidents of the Gods and Demons Academy know it.
The late-stage magic crystal of the Holy Domain needs to be obtained by killing the late-stage demonic beasts of the Holy Domain, and the strength of the demonic beasts of that level is not as easy to kill even if they are not as strong as those who are at the peak of the holy realm.
It's not easy to get one, let alone a specific attribute, two Sacred Realm late-stage magic crystals, Shaoyang and Cao Chong can't use them yet, and when they break through to the Sacred Domain, they can use them immediately, and they don't even need to worry about replacing the staff until their strength reaches the level of a great elder.
Ordinary Sanctuary Magic Crystals, Hoyle can not care, but he only has three Sacred Domain Late Magic Crystals, and he originally planned to exchange them for a Thunder Magic Crystal of the same quality to Malthus.
The number of thunder attribute magic crystals is scarce, and the value is higher than that of the four basic attribute magic crystals of earth, fire, water and wind, the higher the quality, the greater the gap, and the two basic attribute Sacred Realm late-stage magic crystals in Hoyle's hand may not be able to exchange for a thunder attribute magic crystal.
Coincidentally, Hoyle knew that Ernest happened to have a late-stage magic crystal of the thunder-attribute sanctuary in his hand, and after glancing at Ernest, he understood that the reason why the other party proposed such a bet was to make a plan to use the late-stage magic crystal of the thunder-attribute sanctuary to bet.
"Then I want the thunder attribute magic crystal in your hand. Hoyle felt that he could accept the bet, at least he would have to find the rest of the Thunder Crystals.
The value of the bets on both sides is about the same, and the important thing is that Malthus is obviously still at a disadvantage, but Hoyle dares to bet heavily on him, which is by no means arbitrary.
The others couldn't help but get their minds active, Malthus probably still has some strong hole cards, so that Hoyle is so confident and confident, and a few who are good friends with Hoyle or can't see Ernest make a lot of money in the previous game also need to participate in the new bet.
These people were all involved, and even if each bet was not as good as his and Hoyle's, it added up to two or three times as much, so much that Ernest had to think about it carefully.
If Shaoyang fails to win the championship, not only will all the bets won in the top three be lost, but the losing bets will also make him feel distressed.
"How can such an interesting gamble be without us? Haha, Shaoyang is our Chinese child, so I naturally want to support him. "A senior elder from the Ji family took a bet on Ernest.
The Magicians Guild also has a great elder here, who happens to be from Paul's faction, in terms of seniority, he is the ancestor of Paul's teacher, I don't know if he is optimistic about Shaoyang, or because of Paul's good relationship with Shaoyang, he also supports Shaoyang and takes another bet.
Everyone else came forward to help, and the high-level of the God and Demon Academy beside Ernest naturally couldn't help but speak, and also helped Ernest take a person's bet, and in the end, there were still two bets left without anyone to help, Ernest gritted his teeth and took them himself.
In the VIP room, there are still people who have not participated in the new gambling contract, but judging from the number of people who support both Shaoyang and Malthus, they are actually more optimistic about Malthus, who is being chased by Shaoyang.
After Ernest took all the bets, he thanked the three people who shared part of the bets for him, and then continued to watch Shaoyang and their game with a cold face.
In the ring, it was obvious that Shaoyang had the advantage, but those people were more optimistic about Malthus, not because Shaoyang did not perform well, but because it was Hoyle who really made them change their minds.
Although he was unhappy, he had to admit that most of the battles with Hoyle in the past were lost by himself, so those people supported Malthus because they were not optimistic about themselves, which made Ernest very depressed.
Among the several bets, in addition to the three magic crystal bets of Ernest and Hoyle, the value of the other ones is not low, such as the inner armor of the high-grade holy weapon, the spirit fruit that can increase the spiritual power of the magic saint, dozens of cubic space rings, etc., every thing, that is, the existence of these great patriarchs, will be very important.
Originally, these people watched the freshman challenge, unless their own disciples played, they didn't care who won or lost, and some of the previous bets were just jokes, but now they are different, adding many high-value bets, not only making the people involved in the gambling contract excited, but even those who did not participate in the game, some of them pay some attention.
Of course, Shaoyang didn't know what was going on, after he played, he didn't have time to sweep with his spiritual sense, and all his energy was focused on how to defeat Malthus, especially after using magic, he had to be distracted and chant magic spells, and it was impossible to pay attention to the world outside the ring.
