Before I Died, I Forcibly Kissed The Heroine
Chapter 317: The Blood-Loss Bai Zhi, Yu She’s InvitationInside the beast arena, the audience was restless. “What’s going on now?”
“The match should have ended already. We should be leaving the stage. Why is there no movement for half a day?”
“This beast battle is really quite unusual.”
The audience whispered to each other. Having watched so many beast battles, this one was the most “special” they had ever seen.
Firstly, it was the strength of the ferocious beasts.
Except for the number one beast king, the strength of the other ferocious beasts was also top-notch, even using tactics and strategies. The process was thrilling and kept everyone on edge.
Moreover, it was the first time that a member of a different race participated in the slaughter.
At first, nobody paid attention to the thrown-out dog clan member. A mere low-ranking member at the Foundation Establishment realm should have become prey for the ferocious beasts directly. But to everyone’s astonishment, that hound tribe member turned out to be the final winner!
The mysterious flame that instantly killed the Lion King still haunted everyone’s hearts!
“What background does that hound tribe member have?”
“Could it be that the beast arena arranged this just to confiscate our spirit stones?”
“Hush, how can you say such things? Are you tired of living?”
The influence of the Eagle Clan and the Lion Clan was not to be trifled with. Compared to these “Wilderness Nobles,” the strength of other clans seemed insignificant.
“But just now, they said the match result was canceled. Shouldn’t they return our spirit stones?”
“Yes, indeed. Since the results are nullified, the betted spirit stones should naturally be returned as well.”
Some people started to make a fuss.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMany of them had bet everything they had on this match, but the outcome left them empty-handed. Now, their spirit stones were withheld by the beast arena. According to reason, after deducting some fees, the remaining spirit stones should be returned to them. However, the lack of any movement for such a long time made everyone uneasy.
Dong.
Just then, a gong rang, and the audience fell silent.
Only to see several guards enter the beast arena, carrying away the corpses of the ferocious beasts and quickly cleaning up the area. Then, one after another, low-roaring ferocious beasts were led in.
At the same time, the screen above lit up again, displaying the numbers for betting.
“The matter from the previous match hasn’t been clarified yet, and they want us to bet again?” The crowd was instantly stunned.
“Another beast battle starting? Two matches in a row?”
“Are we supposed to place bets again?”
The audience furrowed their brows. The rules of the beast arena were extremely strict. They held a beast battle every three months; this was an unchanging tradition.
But now, they were going to hold two matches consecutively, which felt peculiar to everyone. At this moment, someone noticed something unusual and pointed to the screen above, saying, “There were clearly six ferocious beasts, so why are there seven symbols on top?”
People around looked up.
On the screen, apart from the numbers of the six ferocious beasts, there was also a symbol of a soaring eagle.
As if… it represented the Eagle Clan?
“Look, who is that?” With a gasp, everyone’s gaze turned to the center of the arena. Then, they all froze in surprise.
Through the opened gate, a pale-faced man walked slowly into the arena.
“Bai, Bai Zhi?!”
“He wouldn’t be participating in the slaughter like the dog clan, would he?” The audience’s throats were dry. This was a heir of the Eagle Clan, with a noble status and high standing. Now, he was going to enter the arena himself?
This was simply unbelievable! The audience fell into silence for a moment. Unlike the lowly status of the dog clan, this involved the entire dignity of the Eagle Clan!
What was Bai Zhi thinking?
Bai Zhi was also feeling depressed at this moment. Standing in the middle of the arena, he felt the gazes of the surrounding audience pressing down on him, making him feel uncomfortable.
“Break free!” Bai Zhi gritted his teeth inwardly.
It’s impossible to say that he didn’t hate it in his heart. Being treated as a ferocious beast for people’s entertainment, had he ever endured such humiliation?
But soon, the hatred was replaced by deep helplessness.
There was no way around it; he couldn’t afford to offend Su Shi. When one’s strength and background were inferior to others, they could only bear even the greatest humiliations. No one would care about the thoughts of a weakling.
Moreover, Xing Ke’s attitude served as a warning to Bai Zhi.
Xing Ke was usually arrogant and unrestrained, especially affectionate towards Yu Ren’er. However, in the face of Su Shi, this “love rival,” there was not even a trace of hatred, only flattery and awe.
This was enough to show the Lion Tribe’s attitude! It was not something he could afford to provoke. Bai Zhi could only swallow his pride.
Apart from losing face, the beast arena also suffered significant losses this time.
Six Golden Core realm ferocious beasts were killed, but not a single spirit stone was earned.
This matter would definitely lead to accountability within the clan, and Bai Zhi anticipated that some people would make a big deal out of it.
Regardless, after today, his status within the clan would undoubtedly be greatly diminished.
Now, Bai Zhi could only hope that the betting in this round would be intense and could compensate for the losses in the previous round. He looked up at the screen in the sky, and his expression gradually solidified.
He saw that the betting quantities on top were all blank!
In the previous round, many people had used up all their savings, and they hardly had any spirit stones left.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMoreover, this match was rushed, and with the Eagle Clan participating personally, there was an inexplicable strangeness to it. Most people were still observing and had no intention of placing bets.
At this moment, the betting quantity below the Eagle Tribe symbol fluctuated. Someone placed a single low-grade spirit stone.
Bai Zhi looked up and saw Su Shi standing on the viewing platform, coldly eyeing him.
Clearly, this was his doing.
Humiliation.
Naked and blatant humiliation.
Bai Zhi clenched and then relaxed his fist, trying hard to force a smile.
He couldn’t afford to offend him! Thinking back to his previous actions, Bai Zhi was filled with regret. If he had known Su Shi’s identity, he wouldn’t have dared to provoke this formidable figure!
Until the betting closed, no one else placed a bet. A single low-grade spirit stone hung conspicuously on the screen.
In addition to that, he also had to wager six ferocious beasts!
Bai Zhi’s expression became extremely unsightly.
Today, he would suffer significant losses!
Su Shi withdrew his gaze and turned to walk toward the entrance. He had no interest in watching Bai Zhi fight with the ferocious beasts. Just as he and Yu Ren’er were leaving the beast arena, they heard someone calling out from behind.
“Su Shengzi, please wait.” Both of them stopped and turned around to see Yu She walking towards them briskly.
“Sister She, is there something you need?” Yu Ren’er seemed a bit wary.
Su Shi concealed a smile at the corner of his mouth. It seemed that Yu Ren’er believed his explanation and truly thought he had intentions toward Yu She. Yu She smiled and said, “I’ve heard about Su Shengzi’s reputation for a long time. Since this place is not far from the Snake Valley, if Shengzi could come and visit, I believe my father would be delighted.” As she spoke, her bright eyes continued to appraise Su Shi without blinking.
Before Su Shi could respond, Yu Ren’er stepped in between them.
“We’re not going.”
Yu She: “….”
