At the same time, Wen Tianqing, who was walking onto the arena, also smiled bitterly.
How could he be so unlucky to encounter Li Lingtian in the third round? Was he courting death? A few days ago, Li Lingtian had left a shadow in his heart at the peak of Cloud Dragon Stream.
“Young noble Ling Tian.”
“Young noble Ling Tian.”
Countless Warriors in the plaza cheered. This competition had become the focal point of Li Lingtian’s popularity.
“Tian ‘er? What do you think?”
Qin Susu looked at Li Lingtian and Li Xiaoxiao’s expressions and asked in confusion. She thought that Li Lingtian was having trouble facing a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
In fact, in their hearts, no matter how powerful their son was, he would not be a match for a Wu Zong. This was the iron law of the Divine Martial Continent.
Li Lingtian’s Warrior Spirit defeating a Warrior King was already a heaven-defying feat. Such a thing had never happened in the Divine Martial Continent.
It was very normal to challenge someone of a higher cultivation level within a cultivation level. However, if it was beyond a major cultivation level, there was almost no chance of such a challenge.
” It’s impossible for a Tier Nine Warrior Spirit to compete with a Tier One Warrior Ascendant.”
“His luck has reached its end.”
” It’s already considered lucky for a Warrior Spirit to defeat a Martial King. If a Warrior Spirit were to defeat a Martial Grandmaster, this world would be too crazy.”
“If he can defeat Wu Zong, my name will be read backwards.”
“Look at how excited they are. When they are defeated, they will know what a true genius is.”
Countless youths who were jealous of Li Lingtian were discussing animatedly. When they saw countless young ladies cheering for Li Lingtian, they naturally attracted the envy of countless proud sons of heaven.
It was not just them, but all the Warriors were not optimistic about Li Lingtian. After all, this was a competition that surpassed two realms.
It was like a match between an adult and a baby. There was no suspense at all and Li Lingtian was not afraid at all.
“Brother Zhang, how about a bet of one million spirit stones?”
” Chenghao, let’s make a bet. I’ll take the top-grade Profound Armament in your hand and my Zhiyun Silk Banner. What do you think? ”
” I bet that Li Lingtian will lose.”
” I’ll bet on Li Lingtian’s failure too.”
” I’ll join too. I bet on Li Lingtian’s failure. One million.”
” I’ll bet five million on Li Lingtian’s failure and your superior-grade Profound Armament.”
All of a sudden, everyone started betting on Li Lingtian’s failure. Even though Li Lingtian had made a name for himself recently and had won two rounds, he was now facing a Martial Ancestor Realm Warrior Spirit.
” No way. I’ll bet on Li Lingtian’s failure too. Do you think I’m a fool for such a good thing? A Warrior Spirit versus a Warrior Ascendant? Dream on.”
” Yeah, forget it. I’m not betting anymore. It’s clearly a Martial Arts Grandmaster who used his pressure to crush a Warrior Spirit. What’s the point of competing?”
If Wu Ling defeats Wu Zong, I’ll give each of you a million.”
Some Martial Arts Grandmasters were also discussing this matter. In the hearts of all the martial artists, the iron law of the Divine Martial Continent was something that no one could break.
This was already a rule, the law of heaven and earth. A Warrior Spirit relied on countless heaven-defying luck and treasures, as well as skills and weapons to defeat a Martial King. However, no matter how powerful a Warrior Spirit was, it was impossible for him to defeat a Martial Grandmaster.
“Don’t you dare to bet? I bet that big brother Ling Tian will win. Ten million spirit stones.”
Tang Zi, who was on the stairs, saw countless martial artists betting on Big Brother Ling Tian’s failure. She was instantly angry, but her face remained expressionless.
He spoke to the powerhouses who had started the bet before he asked for seven million Spiritual Stones from Tang Qingyue and Tang Zicheng. Together with the three million that Li Lingtian had given him previously, he had exactly ten million Spiritual Stones.
“10 million. Little girl, don’t cry if you lose.”
” That’s right. Your fiance is indeed not bad. However, he doesn’t have much confidence in facing a Martial Arts Grandmaster.”
A few Martial Arts Grandmasters said with a smile. They naturally knew Tang Zimeng and were extremely excited about the ten million Spiritual Stones.
“Hmph, as long as big brother Ling Tian wins, you guys will have to pay me 60 million spirit stones.”
Tang Zimeng said fiercely. Her jade-like hands clenched into fists and she pretended to be fierce. She did not know that not only was she not fierce, but she was also very cute.
She knew better than anyone else that big brother Ling Tian would definitely win because she had already taught Wen Tian Qing a lesson last time.
If she was facing other Martial Grandmasters, she would not be so confident. However, she was 100% confident that big brother Ling Tian would be able to face Wen Tianqing.
” Alright, we won’t go back on our word. Even if Li Lingtian wins, I can still earn four million from here. Haha.”
The few Martial Arts Grandmasters looked at the storage pouches in front of them. They were all betting on Li Lingtian’s loss. Only Tang Zimeng was betting on Li Lingtian’s victory.
The square was bustling with activity. Countless people were discussing Li Lingtian’s failure, and only the young men and women who admired Li Lingtian were still cheering for him.
However, they were not confident. After all, this was a Warrior Spirit facing a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Wen Tianqing did not look happy at all when she saw countless Warriors believing that Li Lingtian had failed. On the contrary, her expression turned even uglier. The higher he climbed, the worse his fall would be.
Failure was already destined, but all the martial artists thought that he would win. Wasn’t this forcing him to his death?
Li Lingtian shook his head with a consoling expression on his face. He gave Li Suifeng and his wife a comforting look.
Then, he walked towards the arena at a moderate pace. His footsteps were confident, and his face was calm. There was no change in his expression, as if he was doing something very casual.
Soon, Li Lingtian arrived at the arena. He stood there calmly amidst the astonished looks of countless Warriors.
“Young Master Wen, please, don’t disappoint me.”
Li Lingtian spoke calmly as the smile on his face deepened. His tone was like an elder guiding a junior, causing everyone in the plaza to be stunned.
Who was the real Wu Zong? How could a Warrior Spirit teach a Martial Arts Grandmaster a lesson?
“Young Master Wen, defeat him.”
“Defeat him, defeat him.”
” Defeat him! Defeat Li Lingtian!”
“Young noble Ling Tian, young noble Ling Tian!”
“Young noble Ling Tian, young noble Ling Tian!”
Instantly, two camps appeared in the square. Countless genius disciples hoped that Wen Tianqing could defeat Li Lingtian so that the beauties would not be so mesmerized by Li Lingtian.
Meanwhile, countless young ladies were cheering for Li Lingtian, leaving the powerhouses on the steps dumbfounded. What was going on?
How could a Warrior Spirit Realm disciple be so popular?
Wen Tianqing felt more and more pressured. The shouts behind him were like a curse that forced him to die.
Li Lingtian, on the other hand, appeared calm and relaxed in his eyes. His body exuded a mysterious aura, just like the aura of heaven and earth that appeared on the mountaintop that day. It was suffocating.
“All!”
With a loud roar, all the shouting warriors in the square stopped and looked at Wen Tianqing in confusion. The super genius of the Wen family had become like this.
However, what happened next stunned them. All the super experts who came to take the steps were extremely surprised.
“I admit defeat!”
Wen Tianqing bowed to Li Lingtian and spoke seriously. He then spat out a mouthful of blood. Even though his face was pale, he was much more spirited after spitting out the blood. He had finally walked out of Li Lingtian’s shadow..
