Chapter 446: Gambling in the Final

The Rigoga team walked into the venue.

Feiying looked at Kiryu first-class and said, "I'll go first." โ€

Playing the semi-finals today, the finals will be held tomorrow at the latest, and although Feiying doesn't know why Kiryu is first-class and challenges so many participating teams last night, he must take into account his physical condition.

Not only Kiryu is first-class, but the others must also be in good shape to cope with the next decisive battle.

The strength of the Toguro team is recognized by everyone, and the winner of the year 50 years ago was Toguro.

Flying Shadow said, "Let's start now, I'm going to fight alone until the end." โ€

"It's really arrogant" in the youkai of the Imperial Plus team disdain.

Since the appearance of the Urahan team, only Kiryu first-class has really shown his true strength, and the others have won too easily, and it is easy for people to look down on them.

"Don't be so excited," said the handsome young yokai in the Rigoga team, "Why don't we have a way to roll the dice to determine the opponent?" โ€

He has a pair of dice in his hand, with the names of the members of the Urahan team and the Rigoga team written on them, and the sixth side is written "Freedom".

"If there is freedom, you are free to choose your opponent."

"The name on the dice, no matter how many times it appears, must be played as long as you are alive."

"Yes," Flying Shadow nodded.

The referee presided over the test: "Since there is no objection between the two sides, then ...... There will be a one-on-one battle for a total of five battles, and the battle will be decided by rolling the dice. โ€

The first time the dice are thrown, two six-sided dice spin and roll on the ground.

Most people are staring nervously at the dice, and if there is one opponent that the Rigoka team does not want to encounter, it must be Kiryu first-class.

As for the Urahan team, the last thing they want to play is definitely Kuwabara.

The dice stopped, and the flying shadow VS Kintaro Mo.

The referee also announced: "The first battle, Flying Shadow VS Magic Kintaro!" โ€

She raised her hand and quickly fell: "Let's go!" โ€

After saying that it started, the referee quickly backed away from the ring.

Kintaro is a monster who looks like a strong sumo wrestler.

"Sea urchin head dwarf! Let the horses come! โ€

Flying Shadow stood still.

Below the ring.

"The winner has been decided," Kurama said calmly.

"Hmm" Kiryu nodded first-class, agreeing with Kurama's judgment.

The strength of Feiying and Kurama has recovered well, and their strength has improved a lot compared to when they first met.

However, compared to the steady improvement of Urahan Yusuke, they are only recovering their strength.

Above the ring, Kintaro laughed and mocked: "What, don't you dare to move?" Then let me do it first! โ€

"Didn't you notice?" Flying Shadow asked.

"What?"

Kinetaro found that Flying Shadow's hand seemed to be grasping something familiar, a very thick arm, which looked very similar to ...... Own?

He turned his head quickly, and his left arm was empty.

"Bastard!"

Kintaro angrily rushed towards Flying Shadow and smashed his fist into Flying Shadow, the fist hit Flying Shadow accurately, but it was like a punch in the air!

"Idiot, are you hitting the air?" The voice of the flying shadow came from above Kintaro's head.

Kintaro wanted to respond, but his brain couldn't react, and it was pitch black in front of him.

Winter!

The heavy corpse fell to the ground, and the flying shadow half-crouched on Kintaro's head drew his sword, and in an instant he appeared on top of Kintaro's head and killed him instantly.

"Shadow Player wins!" The referee shouted.

There was a commotion at the scene, and the strength of those monsters was generally not as good as that of Kintaro Magic, and he couldn't see Flying Shadow's movements clearly, and he didn't understand why Flying Shadow suddenly disappeared, and then Magic Kintaro fell to the ground and died.

The dice were dropped on the ground again.

The referee looked at the dice and said loudly: "Spade Taro VS Kiryu first-class"

When Kiryu's first-class name was mentioned, the youkai of the entire venue erupted in unison: "Kill Kiryu first-class, kill that bastard!" โ€

Acknowledging the strength of Kiryu's first-class is one thing, but it doesn't conflict with expecting Kiryu's first-class to be killed.

Kiryu stood in the ring first-class, his right hand pressed the knife at his waist, and quietly watched the spade taro below.

On the side of the Riyu plus team, Spade Taro asked, "Grievance, can I prevent that guy's tricks?" โ€

So far, Kiryu first-class has not shown a state of combat overload, and has been at ease.

Manipulating the weather and creating flames like volcanic eruptions is completely beyond their perception in terms of strength.

The old man of the Li Yujia team complained that the master was silent: "......"

"Just Flames and Slashes"

The resentful master said: "As long as the first move is not killed, when your body remembers his attack, you will win." โ€

"That's right," Spade Taro swallowed, accepting the result for the time being.

Spade Taro tugged at the corners of his mouth and put on a relaxed expression.

"Game on!"

"Let's attack first," Spade Taro beckoned to Kiryu first-class.

"Then you're welcome" Kiryu raised his right arm, and Reimaru condensed in his index finger.

"It's just Reimaru" Spade Taro breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Kiryu didn't pull out that knife, his strength shouldn't be strong, and he could really breathe a sigh of relief.

Poofโ€”โ€”!

The spirit pill was launched, and it instantly pierced through Taro Spade's head, opening his forehead and the back of his head.

Winter, the corpse fell to the ground.

Spade Taro transforms into a monkey corpse.

Falling to the ground with the corpse was the audience that overturned the river and the sea and scolded: "What kind of garbage is this? โ€

"I was killed in one move, and I even let others attack first?"

โ€œRNโ€ฆโ€ฆ Woohoo......"

The referee reacted quickly this time and shouted, "Kiryu's first-class player wins!" โ€

She found herself less and less present in this battle, and the fighting style of the Urahan team was to end in an instant, often without realizing that the opponent of the Urahan team had fallen to the ground.

The most fortunate thing is probably that the opponent of the Urahan team did not choose to surrender this time.

Kiryu walked out of the ring first-class, Kuwabara clenched his fists: "Haha! Just kill it! โ€

Kurama was thinking, "Spade Taro, there seems to be some secret technique." โ€

Roll the dice again.

Freedom VS Tibetan Horse.

In other words, in the next battle, the Rigoga team can choose the contestants at will to maximize the possibility of victory against the Tibetan horse.

Flying Shadow said, "Zangma, deal with the opponent as soon as possible." โ€

"Hmm" Kurama nodded, jumping into the ring.

"Team Rigoga has selected the contestants for the third game!" Xiaotu finally found a sense of participation as a host: "It's a Lipu Island player!" โ€

"Then, the third game, Lipu Island VS Tibetan Horse, start!"

Not long after the battle in the ring began, Kurama was trapped.

Little Rabbit broadcast in real time: "The surrounding of the arena is shrouded in a net woven with silk threads, and the Tibetan horse players seem to be unable to move!" โ€

In the ring, Rippo Island faced the immobile Tibetan horse and took out a jade box: "We all came out of fairy tales, and the stupid death of Spade Taro is not unjust, but his strength is too weak, but I am different." โ€

"In fairy tales, if you open the jade box, you will become an old man, but the jade box in my hand will make you younger, and it will not work for me...... I hate people who are taller than me and more handsome than me! โ€

Lipu Island put the jade box on the ground, and he smiled strangely: "I'm going to make you a child, no, no, no...... Directly into an embryo. โ€

He opened the box: "I suggest that after you die, the name on the tombstone should be changed to something else, I know a fierce big monster also called Zangma, although the two of you have the same name, but your strength is very different." โ€

The jade box opened, and the smoke enveloped the entire ring, but it was just right that no trace escaped.

"It's an enchantment," Flying Shadow said.

Kuwabara asked, "Kiryu, what do you mean by that guy saying he came out of a fairy tale?" โ€

"The story of Taro Urashima," Kiryu said, "There was a man named Taro Urashima who was fishing on the beach, and then he rescued a turtle, and the turtle took Taro Urashima to the Dragon Palace for a few days in order to repay his kindness, and when he left, he gave Taro Urashima a box and told him not to open it." โ€

Then, Urashima Taro returned to the shore and found that hundreds of years had passed, and his relatives had died, and he couldn't hold back his curiosity and opened the box, and a puff of smoke came out, and Urashima Taro became a late old man.

"Actually, I haven't been able to read this story" Kiryu summed up the story in two sentences, rubbing his chin: "Is it trying to express, don't be nosy?" โ€

tomato

repay the favor, how can you let the benefactor leave his family, and then return after hundreds of years.

Moreover, there are countless magnificent treasures in the Dragon Palace, and you can give some gold and silver at will, but you can give a box that will make people old, no matter what, it will reveal a bad taste.

"That's the story!" Kuwabara clenched his right hand into a fist and gently tapped the palm of his left hand: "I remember!" This story tells us not to be too curious. โ€

"Huh? How do you tell not to be too curious? Kiryu asked.

Sang explained as a matter of course: "Since Taro Urashima was instructed not to open the box, if he didn't open it, he wouldn't become an old man." โ€

"Kuwabara, your brain is really ......"

If you follow the direction of a child's thinking, this is true, if you don't have a strong curiosity and don't open the box, you can live in peace.

But according to the logic of normal people, Urashima Taro should not rescue the turtle, after all, Urashima Taro was doing good deeds from the beginning, but in addition to checking in and playing in the Dragon Palace for a few days, the next story turned abruptly into punishment, loved ones died, and suddenly appeared hundreds of years later, and then opened a box and became old.

A fairy tale that can be told in just a few words, there is nothing worth delving.

But the self-proclaimed island of Lipu has something to explore about in it.

In the smoke, the demonic aura of the Tibetan horse became weaker and weaker.

"Hahaha!" Rip Island laughed: "Look at me stomping you flat!" โ€

After a few seconds, the smoke gradually turned into a torrent, but the demonic aura of the Tibetan horse was rising rapidly, reaching a terrifying level in the blink of an eye.

Kiryu's brows twitched slightly, and he actually felt a trace of pressure in the breath of the hidden horse, which he hadn't felt at all before.

The slender palm poked out of the smoke, and with a flick of it, the smoke and the barrier were shattered.

The figure of the Tibetan horse was also successfully revealed.

Silver-haired fox ears, tall and tall, with a cold face.

The whole body exudes an extremely evil demonic aura that makes people tremble.

"You...... You're a demon fox and a hidden horse! "Rip Island sat on the ground.

But the Tibetan horse just shook his hand, and the surging plants and vines occupied most of the ring like a waterfall, engulfing Lipu Island.

"Forgot to ask about the secret of the smoke," Kuroma said with a firm look, looking at the audience, where Kiryu was gesturing to him with a "don't keep your hand" gesture.

The vines dispersed, and Rippo Island turned into a boar monster.

"It seems that the identity that came out of the fairy tale is fake," Kiryu said, "Someone wants to play this psychological tactic." โ€

The psychological tactics of the Riyuga team played well, but it was a pity that the opponents they encountered were too strong and the tactics did not work.

Zangma jumped out of the ring, a puff of smoke overflowed from Zangma's body, and he gradually changed from the appearance of a demon fox to a human Tibetan horse.

Whoosh โ€“

A cloth package flew in, and Kuroma subconsciously raised his hand to catch it, and looked at Kiryu first-class who threw the package over.

"The fruit of the past life is poison to others, and it is very effective for you."

"Thank you," Kurama nodded.

The fourth dice are rolled.

This time, it's Death Wakamaru VS Freedom, and when it comes to Kiryu's first-class side, the contestants are freely selected.

"Ahh

It's the dead young master Wakamaru! โ€

The audience erupted in screams like never before, and the vast majority of them were women.

"Young Master Wakamaru is so handsome!"

"Kill all the Urahan team!"

"That...... Young Master Wakamaru, don't kill the Tibetan horse, is it okay? โ€

"What, you watery poplar woman!"

Referee Bunny was taken aback by the unprecedented upsurge of support, and she didn't understand how scary her fans were in the monster world.

"Let me go!" Urahan Yusuke clenched his fists.

Everyone had no objections, but Wakamaru, who had stepped into the ring, looked at the Urahan team, and finally stopped in Kuwabara's face: "It's okay for anyone to come, as long as you don't let that ugly monster with a failed face come up." โ€

"What do you say!

Kuwabara yelled: "What do you say! Who is the ugly bastard? โ€

Kuwabara yelled at the ring, "I'm going to beat your face into a pig's head!" โ€

"Young Master Wakamaru, kill that ugly monster."

"With the perfect body, let's kill that ugly bastard."

The screams of the female monsters made Kuwabara's anger rise in his heart.

"Urahan, I'm going to play this game!"

"Uh......" Urahan Yusuke nodded, "Okay, be careful." โ€

"In the fourth game, Kazuma Kuwabara VS Death Pill! Begin! โ€

Dead Wakamaru is a youkai with long blue hair, a handsome face, and a sword at his waist.

The referee announced the start, a thin veil clutching in his hands.

"You can decide the winner in an instant," Wakamaru said, "Your face, I feel a little uncomfortable after looking at it for a long time." โ€

"Bastard, you dare to ...... to the beautiful men of this century"

Kuwabara held the aura sword and rushed towards Death Wakamaru, but Death Wakamaru shook the tulle in his hand and dragged Kuwabara like a bull to crash into it, and in the next moment, Kuwabara's figure disappeared without a trace.

"Dead as a pill!"

"Dead as a pill!"

"Dead as a pill!"

Because of the victory of Death Wakamaru, the record of the Urahan Yusuke team was broken, and this time it was not only the female audience who was shouting and screaming, but also the male audience chanting the name of Death Wakamaru.

Watching the strong team being defeated, an irrepressible sense of refreshment rose in their hearts.

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ What about the Kuwabara people? โ€

Only people in the same camp would worry about Kuwabara.

Dead Wakamaru said firmly: "Then you have to ask my Death Feather Cloak, it will open a passage from another dimension, maybe the end of the world, the Demon Realm, or the ...... of another dimension."

The referee immediately announced: "Since the whereabouts of the Kuwabara player are unknown, the dead Wakamaru player wins!" โ€

"Then in the next game" Wakamaru took out the dice: "Who should fight me?" โ€

Dead Pills VS Freedom.

It's a self-selected person again, waiting with a smile.

"I'm on!" Urahan spoke again, and this time no one stopped him from getting into the ring.

Recuperating, Urahan Yusuke, who has never fought, faced the death pill, and it was a hard battle at the beginning, and the difference in strength between the two sides was not obvious.

Death Wakamaru prepares to repeat the old trick and sweep Urahan Yusuke away with the Feather Cloak of Death, but Urahan reacts faster and uses Reimaru to knock the Feather Cloak of Death into the air.

The battle was fierce ahead, fists and blood splattered, but Kiryu's first-class attention was not in the ring, but on the top of the martial arts venue.

Wearing sunglasses, Toguro Ryodi looked down at Kiryu first-class.

"Urahan Yusuke, win!"

The battle was over, Kiryu turned his head to look at the ring, and Yusuke Urahan, who was wounded, walked down from the ring slowly.

The handsome youkai has been beaten into a pig's head, lying motionless in the ring.

There is only one last resentful man left in the Riyuga team.

The dice are thrown again, after bounce a few times.

"Tibetan Horse VS Resentful Lord"

There was no demonic loss in the previous battle of Zangma, and he easily walked into the ring to face the resentful master.

The Urahan Yusuke team really doesn't have any psychological burden, except for Kuwabara, who doesn't know where to be teleported to at the moment, and Urahan Yusuke, who just won a miserable injury, Kiryu is first-class, Feiying, and Kurama, all of them are in good shape.

The three of them are extremely strong, and they are still in a wheel battle, and they are sure to win.

Under the attack of Kurama's gorgeous rose petals, the battle with the Rigoga team quickly came to an end, and this team was able to successfully enter the semi-finals not because of their strength, but because they were not attracted by the Jade of the Four Souls, and luckily escaped from Kiryu's first-class hands, and did not become a learning point.

The Urahan team successfully reached the finals, and the clamor has decreased a lot.

Kuwabara finally hurried back, and upon closer questioning, he learned that he had been teleported directly to the dock of the island.

"Urahan, injured?" Kuwabara saw Urahan Yusuke, who was covered in blood, and asked worriedly, "How are we doing?" โ€

Urahan Yusuke gave a thumbs up: "Win all and enter the finals!" โ€

"Haha, I knew you could!" Kuwabara laughed, raised his hand and kept patting Urahan's shoulder, patting him coughing non-stop.

Kiryu stopped Kuwabara's reckless act of beating the wounded: "Let's heal the wounds first, Toguro against the Five Evil Teams, I'm afraid the speed will be faster than we thought." โ€

Because today's battle is developing too fast, and the Toguro team has the final interpretation of the Dark Martial Arts Association, it is highly likely that the final will be played today.

"But Urahan looks like this......"

"I'll help him with his treatment."

Kiryu changed her skin first-class and transformed into a snow girl in full view of everyone.

He opened his mouth and blew out a stream of frost, and Yusuke Urahan's injuries healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Kuwabara pointed at Kiryu first-class, and took three or four steps back: "Kiryu, you, you, are you a woman?" You're a Snow Maiden! โ€

"I'm a mage with the power of a hundred ghosts, and I can turn into a snow girl, isn't it normal?"

"Not normal at all!" Even Feiying couldn't stand the shouting.

However, they also learned that Kiryu has first-class abilities that have never been used, and this power is very strong!

Or has all the battles so far forced him to use all his strength?

When they arrived in the audience, the monsters who were shouting scattered just now immediately closed their mouths and lowered their heads to pretend to be ostriches after seeing the five people coming.

Xiao Hades, Peony and others watched everyone coming, and immediately surrounded them, only Feiying's sister Snow Girl looked at Kiryu hesitantly: "That, are you also ...... Sister? โ€

"No, I'm not!"

"Hahahaha!" A very untimely laugh came from the side.

Peony patted her thigh and laughed.

Kiryu squeezed out a stiff smile first-class: "Peony ......"

"Ahh Be! โ€

Peony reacted and stood up straight.

"I just suddenly thought of something very funny" Peony raised his palm and said sincerely: "Really, you believe me!" โ€

"Hey, young!"

Everyone sat down, and in the final preparations, Kiryu looked past the little Yama, and then struggled to bypass the peony with a bulging head like a string of sugar gourds, and saw a small man with a cloth covering his face.

The little man noticed Kiryu's first-class gaze and asked, "Boy, what are you doing with me?" โ€

"I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person."

"Hmph" The little man turned his head unhappily: "Delay my battle to see the Huyulu team, it's almost over." โ€

"Finished fighting?"

Kiryu reacted first-class and immediately looked at the ring.

It's almost over.

Brother Huyu stood alone in the ring.

With one punch, a contestant of the Five Consecutive Evil Team was blown out of the upper body.

In the real sense, it was blown up, from the position above the navel, and turned into blood foam!

Then the second person appeared on the stage, and then was punched by Brother Toyu Lu.

It seems that Toyu is also pursuing efficiency and solving opponents in the fastest way.

Five battles ended at breakneck speed, leaving only the flesh and pieces of flesh full of the ring, and the long cheers of the youkai, they loved the refreshment of this kind of flesh and blood.

"The conference has temporarily decided that the finals will be held in the afternoon, and the Toyuro team and the Urahan team are invited to prepare."

With the referee announcing the end, the morning's fight ended here.

Kiryu took out his phone and glanced at it.

The battle, which began at eight o'clock, was now just half past nine.

The task of the semi-finals of the semi-finals was completed, but Kiryu was slow to get the Fantasy Demon Taming Manual, and the final final mission did not appear.

Something went wrong?

"Have faith? Face that monster," the masked little man asked Kiryu first-class.

Kiryu turned his head around, but he couldn't see the little man, but he was attracted by a string of "sugar gourds", he reached out and gently pushed the "sugar gourd" away, Peony hugged his head and screamed in pain, and his body leaned back with the "sugar gourd" bag on his head.

"I haven't hit, I don't know."

He was telling the truth, and the atmosphere froze.

"However, I may not be able to beat him," Kiryu said, "I'm afraid of everything else, but I'm not afraid of death, and I have more lives." โ€

"Is that so?" The little masked man nodded.

Kiryu looked at the little Yama who was holding a pacifier on the side and pretending to be an invisible person as if nothing happened: "Hey, little Yama!" โ€

"What's wrong?" Little Yama replied reluctantly.

At this time, he was really afraid of being borrowed by Kiryu first-class spiritual treasures.

If you don't borrow it, Kiryu first-class, Urahan Yusuke and others may die, and after the victory of the Toguro team, the consequences are unimaginable, but if you borrow it...... Lend Kiryu first-class, that is, borrow but not return!

Kiryu leaned closer and whispered, "I heard that there are bets on the banker, what are the odds?" โ€

The masked little man in the distance and the peony with the "sugar gourd" on his head flashed a look of "I know" in his eyes, and then rolled his eyes very tacitly.

"Indeed, I've heard of it too" Xiao Yama nodded: "At present, the odds of Hu Yulu winning seem to be 1 to 1, and the odds of your Puhan team winning are 1 to 10"

Kiryu's first-class eyes widened.

"Help me press!"

"You want to press yourself to win?" Little Yama asked.

"I'm not sure that my team can win" Kiryu shook his head: "If the Yulu team wins, it will be profitable and not lost." โ€

"You call it match-fixing!" Peony sat up, used his "sugar gourd" to imitate a unicorn, and poked Kiryu first-class in the face, but Kiryu first-class did not move like a mountain, but Peony's tears of pain flowed: "Woo woo~"

"I'm not done yet!" Kiryu said: "Although I will make a steady profit and not lose money, but I want to fight more, if I win, 100 million, become 1 billion, right?" โ€

"Yes," Hades nodded, he had no idea about human currency.

The masked little man exclaimed: "Where did you get 100 million!" โ€

"Huh?" Kiryu raised his right hand and pinched his ear with his little finger: "Of course, I earned it by my own ability." โ€

"It's earned by deducting the master's tuition."

"What do you say! Dwarf! โ€

"You stinky boy dare to call me a dwarf, you don't want to live anymore?!"

Xiao Yama hurriedly persuaded the two to fight at the venue, and he also accepted Kiryu's first-class commission, taking all Kiryu's first-class belongings, 136 million, and pressing Kiryu's first-class team to win.

It wasn't until one o'clock in the afternoon that the final began.

[Goal: Final (Defeat the opponent, win), Reward: Toyu Ludi's Muscle Demon Qi Skills, Failure Punishment: Death]

Or is it the first time that such a failure penalty has occurred, that is...... Probably die?

"Kiryu, let's go!" Kuwabara was already walking down, beckoning to Kiryu first-class.

"It's coming!"

Kiryu stood up with his knife in his hands.

He didn't know who he was saying to him, "I'm going to win." โ€

Peony, who was sitting on the left side of the little Yama, covered his swollen head, and shouted to Kiryu, "You must win!" โ€

Although he holds a grudge, he must not let his spiritual detective die.

Little Yama looked at the masked man on his right: "As expected, Kiryu is going to fight to the death with Toguro, which is what the two of them are looking forward to." โ€

Although he is a general, Urahan Yusuke's strength is completely insufficient to deal with Toguro, so only Kiryu has a first-class fight with Toguro Lu.

"After all, it's my apprentice," the diminutive figure said, "Although that kid has been deliberately struggling with me when he was fighting, I know very well that I am no match for him...... His only problem is that the aura is too scarce, and that shortcoming has been solved. โ€

"Do you think he'll be able to beat the fool? Phantom Sea! Little Hades was surprised.

The masked man was none other than the Master of the Phantom Sea who had come to watch the battle, she was not really hard-hearted, and she could turn a blind eye to her disciple's life-and-death battle.

The masked cloth didn't mean much, and Xiao Hades knew that Kiryu must have guessed the identity of Phantom Sea a long time ago, but he didn't want Phantom Sea to worry too much, so he pretended not to recognize her, and even deliberately quarreled with her.

Xiao Hades knew Kiryu's first-class strength, but he didn't expect Phantom Sea to give such a high evaluation.

"That kid has a lot of cards, and Toguro dealt with him...... Heh, I'm afraid it's going to be very troublesome, never underestimate that kid......" Phantom Sea sighed: "After all, he is the most talented person I have ever seen, no matter how many years you have to cultivate the technique successfully, he only needs a moment to learn and master it." โ€

"What a terrible evaluation" Xiao Yama looked down the ring, "I also think Kiryu will win." โ€

"Why?" Phantom Sea asked rhetorically.

She has confidence in Kiryu's first-class because she has seen Kiryu's first-class methods, and she has a guess in her heart, but Xiao Hades's self-confidence comes from a little inexplicable.

Xiao Hades pouted on his pacifier and gritted his teeth and said: "Because that bastard will definitely not suffer, he dares to spend 130 million to bet on himself to win, then he will definitely win!" โ€

He seemed to recall the scene when he was beaten by his father until his skin was open for stealing treasures from the spirit world to pay Kiryu's first-class salary.
