Chapter 207: It’ll Be Enough As Long As We Don’t Lose

Fang Ning said gleefully, “Sir, don’t think that you’re that awesome. If I summon the Celestial Dragon, even without moving a finger, I’ll be able to Mangle you.”

The System said, “Oh, Mr. Multi-Millionaire, let me give you a reminder. If you summon the Celestial Dragon, I won’t care anymore. If you don’t control it during the possession period, it will automatically massacre all who threatens the reproduction of the people of China. According to the rank of threats, of course I am no threat to it.”

Fang Ning was suspicious, “What’s the use of reminding me of this? If it wants to massacre, then let it massacre. Wouldn’t that be good?”

The System said, “That snake demon wife and mother-in-law are included in the criteria…”

Fang Ning was astonished, “How can that be? I’ve never heard of a dragon killing snakes? Don’t they belong to the same family?”

The System said, “If I transform into a Dragon, of course that won’t happen with the True Dragon Clan. Everyone has rationality. However, that Celestial Dragon is not a living spirit, it is the supreme totem of China, it was created for worship by the people who breed clans. Its thoughts are very simple. Whoever snatches the territory of the people living in China, needs to be destroyed. It doesn’t have so many thoughts of coexistence like you humans do.”

Fang Ning said helplessly, “Alright, I’ll summon it after I successfully learn the Dragonization Ability.”

While Fang Ning was conversing with the System, the green insect to the side let out a sly smile. Its continuous eating for five days and five nights finally came to an end.

The System reminded, “That little insect seems like it has some kind of crooked thoughts.”

Fang Ning only just noticed its expression, and wondered, ‘This fella is on the side of righteousness, could it be that its alignment could still be hidden?”

The green insect coughed twice and stood akimbo, “Hey, you Great Azure Dragon. Seeing as how you were kind earlier to give me two plates of delicacies, I will magnanimously not settle the score with you for the incident about you scolding me previously. However, you must arrange a thousand songs for me, and every song must have got to do with good food.”

Fang Ning felt relieved. This fella could only think of a retaliatory idea like this?

He opened his mouth to say, “Oh, you like to sing? Seeing how much you ate, I don’t think it exceeded 30 million. I will give the remaining 30 million to you first. When you go back to the Association of Spirit Kings, spend the money to let them find a professional to arrange songs for you. I don’t know much about modern songs, and I have to leave the country to attend to some matters.”

The System reminded. “Hey, Mr. Multi-Millionaire, your math is wrong. The Truth Department gave us 300 million. Since you said you would give it 30%, then it should be 90 million instead. You still need to give it another 60 million… I cannot backtrack and breach my promise.”

Fang Ning said, “Nonsense, you say I’m not squaring up right? 100 million is my commission… I pulled the strings in the middle. It’s 30% can only be deducted from your share of 200 million, so that brings it up to 60 million, no problem.”

The System said, “… You really know how to drill into loopholes. I like it.”

The Great Green Insect did not know about the two’s heartless calculations. It only startled after hearing Fang Ning’s words, “You want to chase me away?”

Fang Ning said seriously, “Yes, I will be participating in a competition to deal with a very difficult opponent. It is a matter of great importance, and I will have no time to take care of you. It would be better to let your Insect Mother and Father look after you.”

The green insect stood up, feeling slightly worried. In any case, that person let it eat its fill, his injury was rather serious.

It asked in concern, “Great Azure Dragon, seeing how injured your soul is, are you sure won’t you just end up dying at that time?”

Fang Ning took out a bank card and placed it on the table, his face dignified and righteous. “You don’t have to worry about that. A wise man among humans used to say, true warriors are those who dare to confront the miserable life and face dripping blood. Even if my soul is heavily wounded, I will not run away from a challenge.”

Seeing his stalwart figure and upstanding stature, the Great Green Insect was rendered speechless for a moment…

It initially wanted to demonstrate its healing abilities to intimidate him and get back the face she lost.

However, after hearing his words, it understood. Even if it completely recovered its might, this person would never yield. All the True Dragons it saw before were arrogant and supercilious, but they were only conceited because of their own might. Only this one here was truly born prideful.

Looking at how shaken this Great Green Insect’s face was, he felt incredibly satisfied in his heart. It was no wonder everyone loved to act so much. He said lightly, “Alright, I’ve informed the people from the Association of Spirit Kings to come and pick you up. Take that card and use it. I’ll ask the butler to transfer you another 30 million. Remember from now on, living in this world, you must be able to earn your own keep.”

After saying, Fang Ning let the System seize his body. With a ‘swoosh’, he stepped on his flying sword and flew towards the sea…

Leaving behind the Great Green Insect, who was dazedly looking at his disappearing silhouette.

It had a very vacant expression… It looked towards the dishes that were served again, but it did not have any appetite for once.

After a while, there was indeed someone from the Association of Spirit Kings who came to pick it up.

It had a downhearted expression, and was about to follow everyone out moodily.

Gui Er’s thoughts were sharp, and he opened his mouth to ask, “Insect Leader, is there anything on your mind?”

The Great Green Insect floated while saying casually, “Oh, I heard that Great Azure Dragon say he was going to fight in some sort of competition. Can I go there and take a look?”

When Fang Ning responded to the challenge letter, he already received the date and time of the competition, and had to enter through the small island in the Pacific ocean, same as last time. The alloted time was 8pm that night. There were still 6 hours left, which was more than enough.

The return letter given by the other party said that recently, the GASATO were gradually easing their control. A few important, large countries were all starting to undergo varying degrees of support towards Extraordinaire Arena competitions.

In the span of just five days, a number of rich and famous people from all around the world had already been invited. There were also several Powerhouses, and their appearance fee was much higher than the last time.

When the System heard of it, he became extremely anxious. In just ten minutes, he once again reached the southern part of that pacific ocean island and looked out, the same as he did last time.

The System deliberately controlled his speed for fear that he would fly beyond the limit, but he was still much faster than Xue Feng’s flying sword.

“Learning from past experiences, we should first search for that hidden divergent space arena entrance,” said Fang Ning.

Just as he was speaking, the System controlled his body with a ‘whoosh’. He landed on the beach and picked up a large crab. The crab was blue and red with a hint of yellow with a stout end. Something that the green insect, if it saw it, would definitely want to grill it to eat.

“Please let me go, Master Dragon God. Your presence is too dazzling, your dragon aura is too oppressing, this little one cannot bear it. I’ll just open the door for you…”

After speaking, the large crab very quickly disappeared, and reappeared at a portal that was slightly glittering.

“Oh, Sir System’s memory is as amazing as ever. I just remembered what this crab said the previous time, it wanted to try changing into a crab.”

In Guifang Country, at a high altar somewhere.

At this time, under the high altar, a bunch of boys with high noses and wide eyes were tied up and all unconscious.

An old man wearing a sackcloth sat on the altar.

“Master, the match with that Vigilante A is in four hours, are you preparing to leave now?” By his side, a middle-aged man opened his mouth to ask.

“Hm, the things I said, have you all remembered them?”

“The little ones remember them well. The competition starts at 8 pm. At that time, we will immediately start the blood sacrifice. We guarantee that Grand Tutor’s power will flow endlessly.”

The old man’s face flashed with a smile, and he shook his head, “It’s a shame that the sacrificial offerings we can obtain here are too little. It is a harsh land after all. Although the land is not small, the population is too sparse. If one day we can enter southern China, in any other bustling land, there would be more than ten times the amount of sacrificial offerings than this place. However, it is too dangerous there, so I am not able to go there just yet. It would be good if there is an invite from a small country with a good population.”

“When Master kills that critically wounded Dragon God, your name will shake the heavens. You will definitely be able to achieve your ambitions. There will be lots of small countries with large populations in southern China.” the middle-aged man said in flattery.

The old man stroked his beard and laughed somewhat smugly, “It is impossible to kill him. After all, he is a True Dragon. It will be enough if we don’t lose. I believe when the time comes, the fellow cultivators there will open the gate of convenience for me.”

The middle-aged man nodded his head, “With our blood sacrifice, Grand Tutor will definitely gain the upper hand.”

Time trickled by, and it was finally 7:50 pm.

Vigilante A was currently standing on the footbridge of the newly mended spherical arena platform. Fang Ning breezily used the System View to look. It was different from last time, the auditorium seats were barren, and only some seats placed near the entrance were filled with people. At first glance, there seemed to be only six to seven hundred people.

Where was the promised audience? Was it just these few hundreds of people?

At this moment, a staff member explained, “Please do not be surprised, everyone. In reality, the ticket we sold this time is five times the previous record; there are four hundred thousand people who bought tickets to view the competition from the Arena. The appearance fees for the Masters is also five times more than before, at one hundred million USD. However, they are now outside the spherical arena, and will watch the competition in real-time through a big screen.”

They were all people who got scared… The main audience who attended were all rich and powerful people or celebrities. All of them cared dearly for their lives. Since there were too many possibilities in the future, as long as they stayed alive, it was possible that they could live a long life…

Fang Ning understood very well. Although this arrangement was slightly cheating, if no problems arose, then there would be nothing wrong. However, if there was a problem, who would dare to stay and watch from the front-lines? He predicted that in the future, this place could only be used as the competition arena of Basin-level competitors.

At 8 pm sharp, Vigilante A steadily walked into the spherical arena and saw his opponent, an old man dressed in a sackcloth, the Wise Grand Tutor.

There was no host in the arena. They could only hear the sounds from the big screen trailing from the outside.

“Ladies and gentlemen, a very good evening! Bringing to you live from the Arena, the Extraordinaire Arena Competition! On one end we have the King of the Dark Tournament, The Eastern Dragon God, and on the other, the Wise Grand Tutor from Guifang Country! The first time His Excellency The True Dragon appeared on stage, he used an amazing Heavenly Sword Technique to beat his formidable opponent N’gun. Today is his second time on stage, and we look forward to the continuation of his brilliant splendor from the first time!”

“The Wise Grand Tutor of Guifang Country, although his name is not renown, he is equally astounding. He rose up suddenly after receiving the prophecy in the grasslands. After slaughtering a military revolt single-handedly, he broke through to become a Grade-A Powerhouse. Following the Dragon-clan Power Level standard recently circulated in China, that makes him Pond-level now. Since he is at the same power level as the Eastern Dragon God, I believe the competition this time will be a blood-pumping classic!”

Outside the spherical arena was an outdoor stadium. Currently, the stadium was filled with rows of temporary seats. The place was completely filled with no end in sight.

The staff did not lie. Currently, every seat in the stadium was occupied. Everyone was staring up at the big screen in front of them, their hearts thrumming in excitement.

These seats were distributed in a 40×20 array. Each array had a separate large electronic screen in front of them which was showing the host’s introduction before the competition.

On the seats at the eastern side of the large stadium, there were around thirty to forty spectators. Judging by the way they dressed and talked, it seemed like they were all Chinese.

They had all kinds of different identities. There were quite a number of powerful and influential people among them, but most of them were still rich celebrities from all around the country. Vigilante A’s fame was too wide. Even extraordinary and high-class people all heard about him before.

Now that the Truth Department started to loosen the restrictions they had on Extraordinaire Arena competition, they could go overseas to watch such competitions without having to hide their actions.

Just as the organizers declared, this competition attracted a far larger amount of people than last time. To be able to fit four hundred thousand people, one could only imagine just how large the stadium had to be.

When Vigilante A appeared on stage, several Chinese immediately cheered in unison. For most people, they only heard about the Dragon God. The people who had personally laid eyes on him were incredibly little. Most people could only feast their eyes on intelligence videos.

Those who had inside information did not cheer, but were rather worried.

“The Venerable Dragon God is injured, I wonder if he can retreat unscathed.” someone said in concern.

“He should be able to get away safe and sound. We’ve investigated that Wise Grand Tutor before. He isn’t a contestant who has strong, explosive power. If the Dragon God cannot take it, he will be fine as long as he forfeits in time.”

“How can the Venerable Dragon God forfeit in front of hundreds of thousands of people? He will only fight till the end. This battle is worrying. The old saying is correct, ‘The stiffest tree cracks the easiest’.”

At this time, in another direction not far from the stadium, a group of dark-skinned, short stature boys were gathered together. They were currently facing the direction where the Chinese were gathered.

They were people from Kochi, and they had good relationships with the people from India. Even before the start of the new era, they already had a deep sense of camaraderie, and they both viewed China as their common enemy.

Now, when they heard from India that the Venerable Dragon God’s soul received a critical injury, and hearing the cheers of the Chinese inside the stadium now, their faces all spread in disdainful smiles.

“What Eastern Dragon God. He’s just struggling to stay alive. He’ll reveal his original form soon enough.” They continued to discuss in hushed voices, and all stared towards the big screen, hoping to see the scene they were waiting for.

‘Please give me a monthly ticket.’
