"Three days later, the leader of the Battle Dragon Hall will engage in a battle to the death with Liu Xin of the Dragon Country!"
After Liu Xin accepted the challenge on the Divine Network, this news swept through the Dragon Country and the global martial arts world like a hurricane!
On one hand, in the past ten years, no martial artist above the God of War realm had publicly issued a death challenge on the Divine Network!
Therefore, this battle to the death was hailed as the Divine War of the decade!
On the other hand, the Battle Dragon Hall was currently renowned in the global underground world, and its leader was a legendary figure!
Since his debut, he had never appeared in public, always wearing a ghost mask. No one knew what he looked like, how old he was, what country he was from, or how strong he truly was – he was shrouded in mystery!
And this time, he would publicly challenge the veteran two-star God of War, Liu Xin, to a battle to the death, which was completely out of character for him!
"Who do you think will win this Divine War?"
As the battle to the death between Jiang Wuming and Liu Xin thoroughly fermented in the global martial arts world, someone initiated a poll on the homepage of the Divine Network with three options.
1. Battle Dragon Hall Leader wins.
Reason: The Battle Dragon Hall leader has never been defeated since his debut, and no one in this world knows his true strength. Even the Divine Network's assessment is based on his past performance.
2. Liu Xin wins.
Reason: Liu Xin is the ancestor of the Liu family, a martial arts family in the Dragon Country. He has been a two-star God of War for many years, and his ranking on the two-star God of War list has steadily risen in recent years, proving his strength is constantly improving. It is rumored that he is a dominant existence among two-star Gods of War, almost invincible in this realm!
3. I will only watch the result.
An hour after the poll was initiated, Liu Xin's victory had 60% of the votes, the Battle Dragon Hall leader had 30%, and 10% chose to be spectators.
The voting results of the first hour showed that martial artists from the global martial arts world were more optimistic about Liu Xin's victory!
This was because they believed in the authority of the God of War List – the ranking difference between the Battle Dragon Hall leader and Liu Xin was too great!
And since the God of War List was introduced, only one person had defeated an opponent by crossing more than ten ranks on the list.
Jiang Zhan.
The man once hailed as the pride and future of the Dragon Country's martial arts world, a monument for martial arts geniuses of his generation!
In addition to voting, martial artists from all over the world engaged in heated debates on the Divine Network to prove their votes were correct.
"Are those who voted for the Battle Dragon Hall leader to win all imbeciles? Or are you doubting the authority of the Divine Network and the God of War List?"
"The ranking difference between the two on the two-star God of War List is too large. The Battle Dragon Hall leader cannot win. He will die in this battle to the death and end his legend!"
These were the statements from Liu Xin's supporters, using the Divine Network as their banner to dictate the narrative, as if their words were the absolute truth.
"Heh, those who support Liu Xin think they are smart, but have you ever considered that the God of War List ranking is public? Why did the Battle Dragon Hall leader, knowing his ranking on the two-star God of War List is so much lower than Liu Xin's, issue the challenge himself? Do you think the Battle Dragon Hall leader would risk his life for a subordinate?"
"The Battle Dragon Hall leader is one of the most mysterious existences on this planet. Even the Divine Network might not fully grasp his true situation – who can guarantee he hasn't hidden his strength?"
These were the statements from the Battle Dragon Hall leader's supporters, logical and well-founded.
While both sides were arguing fiercely, the Divine Network staff publicly issued a statement: The Divine Network is a public platform specially established by the Battle God Hall for global martial artists. All officially released information is absolutely true. The Divine Network's assessment of the strength of global martial artists comes from multiple aspects, including the martial artists' past achievements, national martial arts institutions, etc., and is absolutely fair.
Eight hours after this statement was released, the voting ratio on the Divine Network regarding this battle changed again. Liu Xin's victory had reached an astonishing 70%, while the Battle Dragon Hall leader had only 20%.
In addition, some people reposted the odds from major global betting institutions for this match.
Liu Xin wins odds: 1 to 1.3.
Battle Dragon Hall Leader wins odds: 1 to 2.5.
According to these odds, those betting on Liu Xin would only yield a 30% profit, while those betting on the Battle Dragon Hall leader would yield a 250% profit – a huge disparity. Major global betting companies were firmly convinced that Liu Xin would win!
After this betting market was released, the debate escalated.
Based on the available information, this battle would be without suspense, and the Battle Dragon Hall leader was bound to lose!
Liu Xin's supporters were more confident.
favorites often lose, it's a betting rule, the Battle Dragon Hall leader must win!
The Battle Dragon Hall leader's supporters also solidified their views from other angles.
By the evening of the next day, the influence of this battle had been completely amplified. Not only the global martial arts world, but people from all countries, regions, and levels were paying attention. Both authoritative media and online platforms were hotly discussing this matter!
This directly led to the battle to the death between Jiang Wuming and Liu Xin becoming the most influential battle in the history of the global modern martial arts world!
...
The Military Region's Jinling War Zone Compound.
Upon hearing the news of this battle, Ye Rui specially returned to his parents' residence.
Just as Jiang Wuming had visited that day, Ye Wentao was not at home as he was inspecting grassroots troops. Only Ye Rui's mother, Wang Hong, was present.
"Mom, have you heard that the Battle Dragon Hall leader is standing up for my aunt's son by challenging Liu Xin, the martial arts family of Dragon Country?"
After entering the two-story building that symbolized status and prestige, Ye Rui eagerly asked his mother, Wang Hong.
"I've heard. Heh... I thought his cryptic words that day had some purpose, but it turns out he wants to have a martial duel!
Even if the leader of his organization can win that match, so what?
What impact will the result of the match have on the Yuan family?
This is like you said, he's simply dreaming!
Besides that, I heard he has a very good relationship with that good-for-nothing from the Qin family back then, and even saved his life, which is why the Qin family was willing to support him.
Now that it's revealed he's a member of an extraterritorial force and is using people from extraterritorial forces to engage in a battle to the death with martial artists from the Dragon Country, it's like throwing shade at the Dragon Country's martial forces. He might even lose his relationship with the Qin family because of this, which is like seeking his own death!
However, since he suddenly came looking for your dad, when he's cornered, he'll likely come to your dad and other members of the Ye family again, seeking to protect himself.
This way, he will bring trouble to our family and even the entire Ye family again. He's such a jinx!"
Wang Hong nodded first, then commented on the matter with a look of disdain.
In her opinion, if it weren't for the Qin family's support for Jiang Wuming back then, Jiang Wuming would have been crushed by the Yuan family long ago and wouldn't have been able to make it this far.
And if Jiang Wuming lost the Qin family's protection, and the Yuan family or even the Gu family behind them retaliated, Jiang Wuming wouldn't survive even with ten lives!
At that time, Jiang Wuming's only way out would be to seek protection from the Ye family!
And she knew that Ye Wentao had a very good relationship with Jiang Wuming's mother, Ye Jinmei, and would likely be willing to protect Jiang Wuming, even striving to have Jiang Wuming return to the Ye family!
"Mom, you worry too much," Ye Rui said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Wang Hong asked, confused.
"According to the information I've gathered, the most authoritative website in the global martial arts world initiated a poll for this battle, and the voting rate for the Battle Dragon Hall leader to win has fallen below 20%. This indicates that most people do not expect him to win!
In addition, the odds offered by major global betting companies are also extremely optimistic about Liu Xin winning!
Under such circumstances, if nothing unexpected happens, the leader of his Battle Dragon Hall will surely die in this battle!
And according to the information I've investigated, the Battle Dragon Hall completely relies on that Battle Dragon Hall leader. If the Battle Dragon Hall leader dies in battle, the Battle Dragon Hall will fall apart like loose sand.
At that time, the hostile forces that the Battle Dragon Hall has provoked will surely retaliate fiercely!
As the instigator, he may not only be assassinated by the hostile forces of the Battle Dragon Hall but also killed by the enraged members of the Battle Dragon Hall in their anger!"
Ye Rui said with excitement, not caring about Jiang Wuming's life or death, but rather hoping for Jiang Wuming's quick demise.
Because, in that case, his and Wang Hong's concealment of Ye Wentao regarding Jiang Wuming's visit would become a permanent secret!
More importantly, as long as Jiang Wuming died, he would not bring trouble to their small family, nor would it affect his engagement with the girl from the Gu family!
The Ye family is unwilling to intervene, and my conscience is clear.
On this day.
They did not know what the young man meant by these words, and by the time they understood, it would be too late!
