Chapter 2749 - 2752: Madman: Challenging the Undefeated Ferocious Beast

"Don’t worry, Miss Mu, I will be careful."

Ling Xiao looked at the Earth Dragon Beast and activated the Tai Chi Eye; he intended to observe the Earth Dragon Beast carefully before initiating the challenge.

By knowing yourself and the enemy, he wouldn’t put his life at risk due to negligence during the fight later.

"A martial artist with a cultivation level at the Yin-Yang Realm Eleventh Layer of Hell, Late Stage, challenges the Earth Dragon Beast. If he wins, he will be rewarded with ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones.

If a martial artist below the Late Stage challenges and wins, they will receive a reward of one hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones!

As everyone present knows, although ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones are equivalent to one million low-grade spirit stones,

in reality, unless truly short of money, no one is willing to exchange middle-grade spirit stones for low-grade ones."

The middle-aged man’s voice slowly rose, full of temptation.

Of course, this temptation naturally came from the generous rewards.

"Wow, one hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones! That’s even more enticing than ten million low-grade spirit stones!"

"Isn’t it? Nowadays, a martial artist with a First Turn Eleventh Layer Hell cultivation level typically only has a few hundred, at most a few thousand, middle-grade spirit stones.

If they actually win, that would truly be a fortune."

"Hehe, you also need to have a life to spend it. Haven’t you heard? Ninety-nine people have already died under the Earth Dragon Beast’s sharp claws."

Everyone knows what one hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones mean.

But the problem is using one’s life as a wager; without some confidence, who would dare?

Currently, Ling Xiao requires a large amount of middle-grade spirit stones for his cultivation.

If he doesn’t take this hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones, they would just go to waste.

Moreover, he could also get Xiao Jin released, making it a win-win situation that he naturally wants to achieve.

Thinking of this, he stood up and loudly declared, "I will challenge the Earth Dragon Beast!"

His voice was loud and clear; although the Battle Beast Arena was chaotic and noisy, his voice still reached almost everyone.

People were attracted by this voice and turned their heads to look at Ling Xiao.

It’s him!

It’s that arrogant guy!

Is he going to challenge the Earth Dragon Beast?

Most people here knew of Ling Xiao.

After all, Ling Xiao had directly participated in the lower disciple promotion to mid-level disciple, and the mid-level disciple promotion to high-ranking reserve selection competition just after joining the Demon Dragon Sect.

And in those two selections, he consecutively defeated the Thirteenth Prince, Liu Yan, Alexander Yin Mountain, Red Demoness, and others.

Especially during the high-ranking reserve selection, he fought alone against twenty-nine people and still achieved victory.

This was understandably deeply impressive to them.

But although Ling Xiao was strong, these martial artists were not weak, and some had cultivation levels even stronger than Ling Xiao.

Yet, they still didn’t dare to risk their lives unless there was a sixty or seventy percent chance of winning.

Even so, ninety-nine people had died in battle, indicating that the Earth Dragon Beast’s actual combat power might be stronger than it appeared.

Ling Xiao was merely a martial artist with a First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm, Eleventh Layer Hell Intermediate Stage cultivation level; how could he defeat the Earth Dragon Beast?

Even martial artists with the same cultivation level didn’t dare to challenge it easily.

Otherwise, why would the Battle Beast Arena offer such generous rewards?

Yun Luan and his group saw Ling Xiao stand up, and their previously depressed and angry mood improved.

"Hehe, this idiot, we were just thinking about how to deal with him, and now he’s seeking death on his own!"

"It’s just a pity; I wanted to see how Brother Mo Ying would torture this kid, but it seems there won’t be a chance."

"Hehe, perhaps he’s gone mad with poverty. One hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones is indeed not a small amount, but to risk one’s life just for these spirit stones, only such a pauper would do that."

A few high-ranking disciples discussed, all concluding that Ling Xiao’s action equated to seeking death.

At this moment, Ling Xiao finally turned his head to look at Yun Luan and his gang.

Ultimately, he locked his gaze on Yun Luan.

Without a doubt, Yun Luan seemed to be the leader of these people; they all listened to him.

"Honored high-ranking disciple, since you are so capable, why don’t the two of us go down and have a little duel?

No need to be responsible for life and death!"

Ling Xiao’s voice was still loud, still full of confidence.

Earlier, Yun Luan and his group’s voices were deliberately loud as if afraid others wouldn’t hear them.

Because they intended to deliberately insult Ling Xiao.

And now, Ling Xiao’s words were also heard by them all.

This hot potato was kicked to Yun Luan by Ling Xiao.

Yun Luan’s expression became somewhat awkward, gritting his teeth as he said, "This is a Battle Beast Arena, not a ring!"

Although those were his words, saying such words showed he was afraid.

Because the Battle Beast Arena never prohibited duels between martial artists.

"Hehe, a coward; I gave you a chance to teach me a lesson, yet you don’t dare to take it!

Besides barking like a dog, what else can you flaunt?"

Ling Xiao’s words were thick with sarcasm.

This turned Yun Luan’s face beet red.

It made him want to crawl into a hole immediately.

Feeling the mocking, disdainful gazes around him, he was both embarrassed and humiliated, and he was angry.

But he truly didn’t dare to go up against Ling Xiao one-on-one in public.

Because he feared death.

The fact that Ling Xiao defeated the Third Sect Elder wasn’t fake.

"It’s simply self-humiliation!"

Mu Qing lightly chuckled without even looking back, "What nonsense Ten Demon Sons, it’s just a self-boasting title, utterly boring."

The Red Demoness clapped her hands excitedly at this moment, "Wow, as expected of the man I admire; Ling Xiao, you’re too dominant, too incredible!"

Honestly, she didn’t dare to defy Yun Luan.

But today, with Ling Xiao and Mu Qing here, she wasn’t afraid of that Yun Luan at all.

Compared to Ling Xiao, Yun Luan was like a jumping clown.

At this moment, Ling Xiao no longer paid attention to the endlessly embarrassed Yun Luan and leapt directly into the arena.

Ten meters of height posed no danger to him.

"Are you ready?"

The middle-aged man asked.

"I’m ready!"

Ling Xiao nodded.

The middle-aged man then backed away to the arena, and from a distance, chanted a curse spell, removing the seal on the Earth Dragon Beast.

At the instant the seal was lifted, the entire audience felt an overwhelming Dragon Power coming toward them.

Some of the weaker individuals even fainted on the spot due to this Dragon Power.

If they reacted this way, then Ling Xiao, who bore the brunt, felt the terror of this Dragon Power even more.

This feeling made him quite uncomfortable.

However, he neither fainted nor took a step back.

On the contrary, cold murderous aura began to emanate from him.

"Roar!"

The Earth Dragon Beast seemingly sensed the killing intent emanating from Ling Xiao and roared at him, obviously a threat, a scare tactic.

Although the Earth Dragon Beast’s intelligence wasn’t fully developed, it had basic wisdom.

At the very least, it understood that the young man standing before it was its opponent for this match.
