Pursue to Sword Summit

Chapter 113 - Large-value bets

Hearing that Lin Mo had bet on the participant, everyone looked at the competition table, and saw that Lin Mo was suppressing a Fourth-rank Sect, but his opponent was a A fifth-grade sect, which was completely out of their expectations.

"Is this kid crazy? He actually bet on a loser. I think he has a lot of money." A man beside him shook his head and laughed.

"I think he and the Mad Zhou are the same, otherwise how would he help the Mad Zhou? He doesn't seem like a rich man, if he loses now, he would regret it for the rest of his life." The other man similarly didn't believe that Lin Mo could win.

This was a one-sided battle, the difference in strength between the two parties was just too great. Although there was only a single stage difference between Fourth-rank Sect and A fifth-grade sect, just this one stage, was like a chasm that no one could pass. The difference in strength was too great.

Even the Mad Zhou had a look of disbelief. After he found out who Lin Mo was betting on, he shook his head and said: "Why did he choose such a person? He will definitely lose."

Because it was simply impossible for him to win, he immediately took the gold coins and placed them in the money drawer. Without even asking Lin Mo, he directly reported the number, "Fifty-six gold coins for Immortal Sword Sect's Lin Mo."

After that, the Gambling Officer quickly wrote down the bet and gave it to Lin Mo. Lin Mo took the bet and put it away, while the Mad Zhou quickly went forward and said: "Benefactor, how could you be so daring? That Immortal Sword Sect is only a fourth stage, his opponent is a fifth stage, he has no chance of winning at all."

Lin Mo laughed: "Whoever can be sure that he won't win, isn't there something good to say? Everything is possible, I just believe that he can win. "

The Mad Zhou shook his head and laughed bitterly: "Although I do not believe, but since Young Noble is so sure, I wish Young Noble victory in the beginning, I will take my leave first."

With that, Mad Zhou took his daughter and left, because he no longer had any means to get the money. Even though benefactor helped him, but now that he had bet all of his money on a participant that he could not win, he still could not get any help.

Lin Mo saw that he was about to leave, but held him back and said: "Why are you leaving now, don't you want to wait for me to win before leaving? You won't get your winnings if you go now. "

Mad Zhou laughed bitterly: "Benefactor, thank you for your good intentions, but I do not believe that I can win this time round. I still want to go back and think of a way to win.

But Lin Mo still insisted on holding him back: "You can't leave, if you leave, even if I win, I won't be able to find you, so, no matter if I win this time, I will definitely help you get a doctor, what about it?"

Lin Mo's last words moved Mad Zhou, his only hope now was Lin Mo. In fact, when he returned, he could only accompany his own wife and did not have any ideas. Now that Lin Mo was willing to help him, he was obviously extremely excited.

"Thank you benefactor, please accept my respect for your great kindness." could not stand such etiquette and hurriedly grabbed hold of him. He did not want him to kneel down, so when Mad Zhou was forcefully held down by Lin Mo, he naturally could not kneel.

Lin Mo immediately laughed: "This is killing me, I still want to live for a long time, you just wait here to watch the competition, I will come and find you after the competition is over."

Mad Zhou nodded his head and said: "I will wait here for benefactor, I'm not going anywhere."

Lin Mo patted the little girl's head again, and said with a cordial smile: "You stay here with your father, in a while I will ask the doctor to treat your mother's illness."

The little girl very sensibly nodded her head and even said crisply, "Thank you, big brother."

Only then did Lin Mo return to the side of the Third Elder Lao Yuewu and Qin Xinyin. Lao Yuewu had long seen the situation on Lin Mo's side, and laughed: "Did you bet all my money on you?"

Lin Mo chuckled: "The Third Elder's foresight is like a god, of course I have to bet on myself, that way I won't dare to lose, if I lose, I would have to compensate the Third Elder with 50 gold coins."

Lao Yuewu shook his head and laughed helplessly: "I think you never thought of losing, of course I think highly of you, but the atmosphere on the stage has changed, and there are many uncertain factors that will affect the outcome of the competition, so you have to be careful."

Lin Mo nodded his head: "I will be careful."

This was the Great Clan Elder of the Lingyun Sect, whose status was only second to the Sect Master of the Cloudsoaring sect. When he walked to the front desk, the tens of thousands of people below immediately fell silent.

In the entire kingdom, who didn't know that Li Feilong was an existence that could surpass the King of Great Ming Country? His appearance could be said to be the most honorable appearance in the Great Ming Country, so who would dare to make a sound?

Li Feilong gave off a transcendent aura, wearing white clothes, a snow-white beard, snow-white long hair, and a tranquil and peaceful appearance.

Lin Mo could not help but exclaim in his heart, the power and aura of the Great Clan Elder of the Lingyun Sect was truly extraordinary, he himself did not know if he could even reach such a high level, how strong would it be if there was an even more powerful Sect Master behind him, Li Gu Yi?

Li Feilong walked to the front of the stage and looked at the tens of thousands of people below him. Everyone was completely silent, afraid that even the slightest sound would affect Elder Li Feilong's mood.

Although Li Feilong's voice sounded very gentle, as if he did not use much strength to speak, the experts could immediately hear the fierceness in his words. Although Li Feilong's voice didn't sound loud, but even if the person was over a thousand meters away, Li Feilong's voice still echoed in their ears.

Everyone was celebrating the arrival of the competition. After Li Feilong and the others went into a frenzy, they waved their hands to signal for everyone to stop, and the tens of thousands of people immediately stopped talking, as though they were being controlled by someone.

This was the respect everyone had for Li Feilong. As long as he showed them anything, everyone would listen to his commands, no one would dare make the slightest mistake. If there was, even if he was fine, the people around him would probably teach him a lesson.

Li Feilong continued to speak, "Today, Lingyun Sect will host Peppermint's first day of competition."

After saying that, Li Feilong slowly retreated, and immediately after, an old man walked out from the judge's seat. This person was Lingyun Sect's Royal Tomb.

Because the competition on the first day was only a preliminary competition, the elder who presided over the competition today was merely Lingyun Sect, so Li Feilong, as the overall host of the competition, announced the start of the competition.

Although it was only the Outer Sect Elders, and no one dared to make a ruckus, they were not as excited as Li Feilong. After all, the level difference was too big, and everyone started to whisper to one another.

Wang Ling stepped forward and said loudly, "I will now announce the names of the disciples from each sect according to the order in which the competition begins. After each sect's disciple hears their own names, they will enter the arena."

Wang Ling began to read out the names of the disciples in each group according to the competition form pasted on the wall. As he read out the names of these young disciples, one after another, the young disciples went up onto the stage. After finding the competition area on the stage, they faced each other as they looked at their opponents.

The young disciples went up on stage one by one, and only after a hundred participants had entered the stage, did Wang Ling finally stop reading. These hundred participants were the first batch of participants to start the competition, and among them, fifty were to be chosen for the second round of the competition.

Neither Lin Mo nor Qin Xinyin were on the list for this round, so they did not go up. However, they were also very concerned about the participants on stage;

From the appearance of every participant, Lin Mo had a general understanding of the strength of these hundred participants. Everyone was at the ninth level of Body Tempering and early stage of Qi Nurturing, so it could be said that they were evenly matched, because the strength of the disciples who were invited by the Lingyun Sect wouldn't be too far off.

On the surface, Lin Mo's strength was only at the Tempered Body 8th Level. This kind of level was basically at the very last, and going up would only be accompanied by training. Of course, this was only on the surface, it gave off the feeling of being someone's sparring partner.

Lin Mo felt a little relaxed in his heart. With his current strength, taking down all these opponents was not a difficult task, so he was not particularly worried, instead, it was Qin Xinyin who was a little nervous, because her strength was only at the early stage of Qi Cultivating Stage. Although she had already entered the Qi Cultivating Stage for a period of time, there were a few experts among them who had already broken through their middle stage of nourishing qi.

If she were to meet an opponent with middle stage of nourishing qi in the next battle, Qin Xinyin wouldn't have any confidence at all, but fortunately, there weren't many of these experts, and only three of these hundred experts were closely followed. She hoped that she wouldn't have to face this kind of expert so early.

Qin Xinyin said worriedly: "This year's participants are much stronger than the previous one, there are even a few with middle stage of nourishing qi. I wonder how many rounds I'll be able to make this time."

Lin Mo knew that she was feeling a little apprehensive in his heart, so he consoled her, "Aren't you also much stronger than last year? Since you were able to enter the top twenty last year, I believe that you will definitely be able to reach a higher ranking this year. "
