Chapter 122 - 122

Chapter 122: Chapter 122 Zhou Peng likes to gamble. Especially this kind of battle and hegemony gambling method is even more liked. However, he never bets on others and will always bet on himself. In ten gambles, nine are fraudulent. Only oneself is the most trustworthy. The chance of there being no inside story in this kind of hegemony battle is zero. Manipulating a battle casually can earn unimaginably huge profits. To put it nicely, the hegemony battle promotes actual combat cultivation. To put it bluntly, it is just a casino. Everything is centered around interests. Zhou Peng was truly surprised that the Thousand Machines Sect would establish such a place. Asked by Zhou Peng like this, Lin Yan immediately said, "Anyone can participate. However, regardless of life or death, even if one dies, the Law Enforcement Hall will not interfere. One is responsible for all consequences. If you have an enemy, it is best not to participate in this kind of hegemony battle. It is very likely that assassins will be hired." "But how could you have an enemy just after arriving at the Thousand Machines Sect?" Lin Yan scratched his head and grinned foolishly. In fact, he was overthinking. Then he asked, "Do you want to participate?" "Yes." Zhou Peng did not deliberately hide his eagerness for battle and victory. Lin Yan was shocked. He didn't expect Zhou Peng to have such an idea. You know, the disciples who participate in the hegemony battle are all very powerful. Occasionally, some inner sect disciples will even appear. Not to mention their cultivation and strength. A year ago, Zhou Peng was only at the ninth level of Gathering Spirit. No matter how powerful he was, he couldn't be the opponent of those disciples. Thinking of this, Lin Yan's eyes suddenly widened. Looking at Zhou Peng, his heart was suddenly shaken. "I actually can't see his cultivation level?!" "How is it possible?" Lin Yan has reached the second level of Tempering Gang. It is impossible for him not to be able to see Zhou Peng's cultivation level. If Zhou Peng has not practiced a technique to hide his strength, then it can only mean one thing. His cultivation level has surpassed the second level of Tempering Gang and reached a level that Lin Yan cannot see. Surpass the second level of Tempering Gang? How is it possible to break through the second level of Tempering Gang in a year? Lin Yan showed a shocked expression. Chang Feng and Fang Kui around him also noticed Zhou Peng at the same time. Their expressions were all stunned. "What level of cultivation are you at now?" Lin Yan couldn't help asking. "The fifth level of Tempering Gang." Zhou Peng said faintly. As soon as the words fell, Lin Yan and the others were extremely shocked. Breaking through from the ninth level of Gathering Spirit to the fifth level of Tempering Gang in a year is simply a freakish existence. When Yi Qianhan heard Zhou Peng tell his strength, there was a strong longing in her eyes, a longing for becoming stronger... "The fifth level of Tempering Gang, the fifth level of Tempering Gang,..., good." Lin Yan was extremely excited. He chuckled and said, "Come with me." At first, Lin Yan didn't want Zhou Peng to go and die. But now that he knew that Zhou Peng had the strength of the fifth level of Tempering Gang and powerful techniques, he definitely wouldn't have a problem in one or two battles. Thinking that he had a friend who could participate in the hegemony battle by his side, he was extremely happy from the bottom of his heart. When they came to the registration office, Lin Yan directly handed in Zhou Peng's black wooden plaque through the window. The staff inside was stunned for a moment and whispered a sarcastic remark, "A disciple of the Yellow Gate dares to participate in the hegemony competition. He really doesn't want his life." Although sarcastic, he still submitted Zhou Peng's information and waited for an opponent to be arranged. Zhou Peng had a calm expression and was not affected by the sarcasm. He would slap them hard with victory later. After registering and arranging, Zhou Peng received a small stone plaque. There was a string of numbers engraved on the stone plaque. It should be the contestant's number. Then he asked again, "Where can I place a bet?" Lin Yan happily led Zhou Peng to the betting window. He first bet a thousand merit points on Zhou Peng himself. Then he asked, "How much do you want to bet? I'll pay for you." "No need. I also have merit points myself." Zhou Peng smiled and walked to the window. He took out his black wooden plaque and said, "7500 points bet on contestant No. 0231." The staff quickly deducted all the merit points in the black wooden plaque and then handed it to Zhou Peng. The hegemony competition pays out according to the odds ratio. Zhou Peng's opponent list hasn't come out yet, so currently no one knows what the odds are. However, betting 7500 merit points at once is really a big bet and it shocked Lin Yan beside him. 7500 merit points is a large sum. Zhou Peng has so many merit points just after coming for a few days. Lin Yan looked at Zhou Peng in disbelief and asked stupidly, "How many tasks have you completed?" "Two." "Two?" Lin Yan became excited again and asked, "Were it you who completed killing Huang Xie and killing the thousand-year-old snow demon?" Lin Yan and a few others often go in and out of the Merit Hall and have heard about recent events. Thinking that Zhou Peng accumulated 7500 merit points from two tasks, they immediately thought that he completed these two tasks. He is an old hand at tasks. He knows very well the danger coefficients of these two tasks. Unexpectedly, Zhou Peng completed it alone. The degree of shock in his heart was like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami surging. Looking at Zhou Peng, his heart was extremely excited. Thinking of repaying him again, Lin Yan gave a wry smile and thought to himself, "It seems that I will never have a chance to repay him in this lifetime." What does someone at the fifth level of Tempering Gang need his help with? Zhou Peng smiled knowingly. He put his arm on Lin Yan's shoulder and said, "Brother Lin, there are still many things I don't understand about the Thousand Machines Sect. I still need your care in the future." Lin Yan chuckled and said, "No problem." Several people sat in the stands and waited for the competition to come. After half an hour, the voices in the venue gradually quieted down. An extremely powerful old man walked into the arena and looked around with his eyes. Immediately, the venue was so quiet that there was not a single sound. One could hear a pin drop. The old man is the referee and his strength is unfathomable. Rumors say that he has reached the Void Entrance Realm, but no outer sect disciple dares to confirm it. The old man announced some competition precautions, rules, and then announced the start of the competition. Immediately, a huge black stone slab appeared in the air. It was even bigger than the black stone slab in the Merit Hall. The names of the contestants on it kept rolling and finally stopped. The opponent lists also appeared. In less than half a minute, the odds for each opponent list were displayed. The betting window was immediately crowded with people. "Zeng Xiang, with a strength of the first level of Tempering Gang, a disciple of the Heaven Gate." As soon as Lin Yan saw Zhou Peng's opponent, he immediately said. The smile on his face was like a blooming flower. He said faintly, "A sure win." Chang Feng and a few others were stunned at the same time. Looking at Zhou Peng, they didn't say a word. "Brother Lin, this is my black wooden plaque. From now on, as long as it's my competition, you bet all on me and bet on me to win." After finishing speaking, Zhou Peng handed the black wooden plaque to Lin Yan and walked towards the contestant rest area. "What?" Lin Yan and Chang Feng were stunned at the same time. Looking at Zhou Peng who had already walked out, their hands trembled slightly. They said in unison, "Does he want to fight all the way to the end?" Fight all the way to the end. There is such an option in the hegemony competition. As long as the contestant is willing, he can stay on the arena and wait for other challengers. However, in recent decades, there has never been such a person. To fight all the way to the end, one must have an unimaginably powerful strength. Even a contestant at the ninth level of Tempering Gang probably can't do it. The consumption of qi and physical strength is a headache. Zhou Peng naturally understood. However, when he knew about this rule, he smiled inwardly. The tasks in the outer sect Merit Hall are too weak. He searched but didn't find tasks to go to those dangerous microspaces. He wanted to enter the inner sect disciples earlier and receive some tasks that are helpful for his own upgrade. In the morning, he was still thinking about using three months to accumulate 100,000 merit points in exchange for inner sect disciple qualifications. Now he has another idea. Gamble, gamble boldly. 100,000 merit points are enough for one night. "Brother Luo, that kid Zhou Peng has participated in the hegemony competition." "Hmph, courting death." Luo Sheng's face showed a sneer. Then he said again, "Go find the inspection envoy and find a way to make me face him." "Understood!"
