Chapter 1495: Chapter 1486: A One-Sided Situation
As Ye Chenfeng stood on the platform, he immediately felt the flow of the Spiritual Qi River within his meridians becoming sluggish, until it was completely restricted by the rules on the platform.
At this moment, Ye Chenfeng couldn’t elevate even a trace of spiritual energy in his body; all he had left was his pure physical strength.
Of course, facing Ye Chenfeng, Jiang Motian’s Spiritual Qi River was also restricted.
The referee on the platform, seeing Ye Chenfeng stepping up, announced to the audience, "Now everyone can place their bets on the contestant they favor."
Before each martial arts bout begins, the referee always leaves two minutes for the audience to place their bets.
Just now, Ye Chenfeng and Jiang Motian had not concealed their aura, so before they stepped onto the platform, most people present sensed that Ye Chenfeng’s strength was at the middle stage of the Divine Thought Realm Second Heavenly Layer, while Jiang Motian’s strength was at the late stage of the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer.
In each row of the audience stands, there was a staff member responsible for collecting the Spirit Stones for bets, and when the referee announced the betting, the audience stands became lively once again.
"I think the person at the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer will win this match. I bet thirty Middle Grade Spirit Stones on the person at the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer to win."
"I think that’s not necessarily the case. Didn’t you see the last match? Strength isn’t everything here; what’s tested is the strength of the physical body. I bet twenty Middle Grade Spirit Stones on the person at the Divine Thought Realm Second Heavenly Layer to win."
"That person at the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer dares to stand on the platform and boast, which proves he’s confident about winning. I bet fifty Middle Grade Spirit Stones on the person at the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer to win."
"I bet ten Middle Grade Spirit Stones on the person at the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer to win."
...
The sound of bets being placed echoed through the audience stands, with most betting on Jiang Motian to win, and only a small crowd betting on Ye Chenfeng, as Jiang Motian’s earlier boasting made most people present feel his confidence.
In the audience seats, Bai Xiaorou was closely watching Ye Chenfeng on the platform, while Zuo Feibai had a cunning smile on his face. He took out one thousand High Grade Spirit Stones from his storage ring and bet directly on Ye Chenfeng to win, as Zuo Feibai saw this as an opportunity to make a profit.
Wu Lifen glared at Zuo Feibai with displeasure and shouted, "Zuo Feibai, you still have the mind to bet now? Are you so sure our ancestor will win? That kid dares to stand on the platform, which proves he’s very confident in his physical strength."
Zuo Feibai casually replied, "Don’t worry, Wu Lifen; let’s just watch how our ancestor performs!"
After all the audience placed their bets, the referee on the platform said to Ye Chenfeng and Jiang Motian, "Now that the betting is closed, there is a stele in each of the four corners of the platform. You just need to hit the stele with force, and it will display your current physical strength. Of course, you can choose not to test and start fighting directly."
In this pure physical body platform match, although physical strength is the most important factor to win, one’s speed is also very important.
The four stele standing at the corners of this square platform are specially made by Sunset Island to test physical body strength. Generally, others cannot feel the physical body strength directly.
These four stele are for the convenience of martial artists. Some cultivators not participating in the fight can also use the stele to test the degree of their physical strength.
However, generally, no one would let their opponents know their physical strength before the match, but Jiang Motian, full of confidence, wanted to make Ye Chenfeng completely defeated. He was eagerly anticipating Ye Chenfeng’s surprised expression after seeing his strength.
First, it’s a psychological torment, and then Jiang Motian would physically torment Ye Chenfeng, leaving him no chance to admit defeat and directly send him to meet the King of Hell.
Jiang Motian walked up to one of the stele, saying, "Let me test my physical strength!"
With a surge of power in his body, Jiang Motian swung his right fist swiftly at the stele. With a "bang!", the stele shook slightly, and soon, eight bold characters appeared on it: "Creation Realm First Heavenly Layer Peak".
At the moment these eight characters appeared on the stele, many people present held their breaths instantly.
Physical strength at the Creation Realm First Heavenly Layer Peak?
Isn’t Jiang Motian’s strength only at the late stage of the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer?
Suddenly, intense discussions erupted again among the audience.
"How is this possible? How can someone at the late stage of the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer have a physical strength comparable to a master at the Creation Realm First Heavenly Layer Peak?"
"Is there still any suspense in this match? The person at the late stage of the Divine Thought Realm Third Heavenly Layer is definitely going to win."
...
Wu Lifen, the young master of Sunset Island, looked extremely solemn after seeing Jiang Motian’s physical strength and said, "Zuo Feibai, it seems our ancestor is going to lose for sure. I must notify my father now!"
Wu Lifen took out a jade token from his chest and, with a "bang!", crushed it.
This jade token was to directly contact his father, Wu Yidong.
Zuo Feibai also took out a jade token and said, "Yes, if the ancestor wins this match, it would be troublesome if that old man from the Hall of Sea Gods goes crazy. I must also notify someone."
Zuo Feibai crushed the jade token in his hand, contacting the old ancestor Zuo Deyuan of the Yunxian Sect.
...
On the platform.
The referee, after seeing Jiang Motian’s physical strength, paused for two seconds and then looked at Ye Chenfeng, asking, "Do you need to test your physical strength?"
Ye Chenfeng’s face remained expressionless, while Jiang Motian, who had been waiting to see Ye Chenfeng scared stiff, felt extremely displeased seeing that Ye Chenfeng showed no reaction. He muttered to himself, "This kid must be completely stunned from fright; it must be so."
Jiang Motian twisted his arms and shouted, "Kid, what’s wrong? Are you thinking of backing out now? You better act like a man, as you have always been just an ant in my eyes."
Ignoring Jiang Motian, Ye Chenfeng said to the referee, "I don’t need to test."
As soon as Ye Chenfeng spoke, those who bet on him to win became crestfallen, while those who bet on Jiang Motian to win let out excited jeers, believing Ye Chenfeng didn’t dare to test because he knew his physical strength couldn’t match Jiang Motian’s.
The referee on the platform, seeing that Ye Chenfeng didn’t need to test, said, "During the match, if an opponent admits defeat, the match must end immediately. Do either of you have any other questions?"
After both Ye Chenfeng and Jiang Motian indicated no issues, the referee announced, "The match begins!"
Jiang Motian’s body continued to gather strength, feeling the explosive power beneath his muscles, his smile growing more exuberant. His voice was icy as he shouted, "Kid, are you scared? Are you regretting? Actually, you’re just an extremely foolish person."
Arrogantly pointing at Ye Chenfeng, Jiang Motian continued, "If I were you, I would rather act like a coward earlier, because from the moment you stepped onto the platform, it was destined that you would die here. I won’t give you the chance to admit defeat."
Ye Chenfeng pulled the Black Xuan Sword from his back, and with a "bang!", it was planted into the ground beneath the platform.
Is Ye Chenfeng afraid? Does Ye Chenfeng regret? Is Ye Chenfeng a foolish person?
After being transformed by the Seven Colored Divine Spring and the body-strengthening wine, Ye Chenfeng’s physical strength now matches that of a strong person at the Creation Realm Third Heavenly Layer Peak. Does he fear Jiang Motian?
Does Jiang Motian want to leave no chance for Ye Chenfeng to admit defeat?
Similarly, will Ye Chenfeng give Jiang Motian the opportunity to surrender?
