81: Chapter 81 Collect Interest First

Chen Long finally understood Yue Shu's meaning.

As the top institution in the East District, the immense pressure and fierce competition at Huaxia University could be easily imagined.

To test themselves and plunder resources.

The arena gambling matches at Huaxia University were an important part of this; both parties who stepped onto the stage were always responsible for the consequences, and naturally, they would exhaust everything and go all out.

That's right, responsible for the consequences!

What Yue Shu wanted was not just to teach Chen Long a lesson, but to make Chen Long pay an unimaginably painful price.

The teachers in the audience also saw the signs.

— "Isn't this too ruthless?"

— "If one has the strength, one can do this."

— "The Chen family deserves it, but Yue Shu is too impulsive."

The teachers had different opinions on Yue Shu's actions, but no one would stop the battle between Yue Shu and Chen Long, because this was the rule of the arena gambling matches.

At the same time, they looked at Yue Shu's mentor, He Longting.

He Longting looked back at them, smiled, and waved his hand: "Don't look at me, look at the Pet Beast battle on the stage, watch the battle!"

On the battle stage.

The Storm Dragon had absolute control over the sky; turning a breeze into a roaring gale was like moving its own arm, used with ease.

The Fear Sand Terracotta's swarm of scarabs was crushed by the wind pressure.

The disintegrated sand grains spread flat on the ground, not dancing with the gale, as if they had been deliberately abandoned.

The flames in the Hell Demon's hands continued to extend.

The orange flames turned into a solid substance, emitting a thick, foul odor, and condensed into a sulfurous giant sword over ten meters long.

The Hell Demon leaped into mid-air and swung the sulfurous giant sword.

The Storm Dragon's broad membranous wings vibrated, and two gusts of wind merged with the fierce gale, rising into two gray-white tornadoes that attacked the Hell Demon from both sides, tearing its sulfurous giant sword to shreds.

The Hell Demon's sturdy body was knocked back by the tornadoes.

The Fear Sand Terracotta's torso was wrapped in ancient linen bandages, which were covered in incantations, floating and dancing in the gale.

The bandages suddenly stabbed toward the other side of the battle stage.

The Fear Sand Terracotta steadied itself with the ancient linen bandages, and incredibly long, deformed arms extended from the openings on both sides.

At the ends of its arms were not fingers, but two ritual scythes polished from obsidian, symbolizing harvesting and sacrifice.

It slashed at the Storm Dragon from a distance.

An illusory black shadow of the Grim Reaper swept through the air, its scythe blade swinging toward the Storm Dragon, as if reaping its life.

The Storm Dragon's dragon eyes flashed slightly.

A strong light surged on its deep blue body, and powerful wind energy emerged around it, transforming into a solid barrier with an invisible wind wall, crushing all outsiders attempting to approach.

The Storm Dragon swung two more tornadoes onto the battle stage.

The tornadoes headed straight for the Fear Sand Terracotta.

Chen Long controlled the Fear Sand Terracotta to respond; its ancient body disintegrated into countless flowing, pale quicksand mixed with gold dust and bone powder.

The sand grains flowed and slid endlessly, yet maintained a fixed outline, completely ignoring the chaotic dancing of the tornadoes.

"Calamity Sacrifice!"

Chen Long decided to activate his S-rank Beast Taming Talent.

The immense Contract Power wove into an illusory robe, and the crown of thorns symbolizing calamity was placed upon Chen Long, causing his appearance to shift toward that of a living dead, and his aura became terrifying.

The Fear Sand Terracotta and the Hell Demon received a huge boost.

The Fear Sand Terracotta activated the talent Calamity Sacrifice!

The ancient torso hovered above the ground, the ominous aura growing stronger, leaving behind ritual runes burning with ghostly blue flames wherever it passed, which lingered for a long time.

The Hell Demon activated the talent Hellfire!

The burning flames turned dark red, with black substances drifting from the fire, like evil Souls screaming while being roasted.

The auras of the two Pet Beasts climbed steadily.

The Hell Demon raised its palm to cover its mouth, and the moment its palm moved away, a dark red fireball erupted, rushing toward the Storm Dragon like a meteor flying in reverse.

The Storm Dragon's sharp claws were surrounded by cyclones.

The moment it swung its claws, the cyclones burst out, the released terrifying power dismantling the dark red fireball, and carrying the scorching hellish evil fire, it smashed toward the Fear Sand Terracotta.

The Storm Dragon roared to the sky and rushed into the clouds.

It flew at high speed around the battle stage, and the strong wind it stirred up was miraculously separated from the storm below, the two distinct and separate.

"Quick, stop her!"

The people from the Dragon Tiger Club shouted anxiously.

Chen Long's heart also trembled wildly; while controlling the Fear Sand Terracotta to turn the ominous aura into a shield to resist the hellish evil fire, he also controlled the Hell Demon to launch a powerful skill to interrupt the Storm Dragon.

Skill, Abominable Judgment Flame!

The Hell Demon opened its arms as if embracing the world.

The hellish evil fire burned intensely, the flames not going upward but downward, pouring energy into the earth beneath its feet.

The opposite side of the battle stage was like a boiled shrimp, erupting with columns of hellish evil fire like a volcanic eruption, turning the entire battle stage into Hell and continuously invading the sky.

Yue Shu, however, only curled her lips in a cold sneer.

The powerful airflow pushed out in all directions, and blue light shadows emerged in her ink-colored eyes, which were the same as Yue Yun's, instantly taking control of the roaring, surging wind and waves in this world.

In the Domain of wind, she alone was the master!

The strong wind driven by the Storm Dragon became even more fierce, every wisp of wind energy constantly exploding, turning into new gales at its command.

The storm connecting heaven and earth descended.

It carried a wind pressure like Mount Tai, blocking the Hell Demon's skill, trapping it and the Fear Sand Terracotta in the gray storm, like beasts imprisoned on an island by a natural storm.

The wind around the Storm Dragon was another color.

The counter-rotating storm was bright and brilliant, like a clear, washed-blue sky, making one ignore the hidden murderous intent.

The Storm Dragon descended rapidly like a lead weight.

The counter-rotating storm followed behind, like a millstone covering the gray storm, its natural twisting force instantly tearing the battlefield apart.

The continuously erupting columns of hellish evil fire were crushed inch by inch, melting into the storm millstone to become a new force, applying new pressure to the Hell Demon and the Fear Sand Terracotta.

Chen Long's face was terrifyingly gloomy.

The Fear Sand Terracotta struggled to maintain its body in the storm millstone, its state, already scorched by the hellish evil fire, appearing even more depressed, and now enduring the massive baptism of hellish evil fire, it was in unbearable pain.

While shaking violently, the Fear Sand Terracotta accelerated the burning of the ghostly blue flames, spawning more ritual runes.

Skill, Calamity Curse!

The ritual runes gathered into a bundle, like a rushing, endless river, ominous and decaying, pouring toward the Storm Dragon.

The Storm Dragon did not dodge at all.

A magnificent radiance surged from its dragon body, its ferocious dragon head opening and closing to gather powerful airflow, rotating at high speed to compress it into air bombs with explosive and immense power, which kept increasing.

Chen Long felt incomparable palpitations.

Not just him, even those fourth-year students felt wary, and the level of importance they placed on Yue Shu in their hearts rose once again.

Chen Long's face showed fear: "I surrender!"

However, it was already too late.

The compressed air bomb shot out from the Storm Dragon's mouth, tearing the air wherever it passed, leaving only visible ripples.

The air bomb landed and bloomed with dazzling radiance, its immense power tearing everything apart, and invisible waves of air rose rapidly.

The Storm Dragon flew against the current, its sturdy dragon body passing through the air waves to reach the ground, opening its bloody maw to bite the Fear Sand Terracotta.

Bang!

The severely injured Fear Sand Terracotta was unable to resist, shattering into dust in the Storm Dragon's terrifying bite, releasing an immeasurable ominous curse.

The Storm Dragon endured the impact of the curse, its dragon head stained with the pallor of Death Qi, its dark purple dragon tongue rotting rapidly, and foul, stinking, diseased saliva flowing from its mouth; its state plummeted rapidly.

However, no one dared to underestimate it.

Even the Hell Demon, which was in good condition, dared not attack to test it.

Because the Storm Dragon had indeed slain the Fear Sand Terracotta!

The Pet Beast space belonging exclusively to the Fear Sand Terracotta shattered, and Chen Long's Soul space was instantly subjected to unimaginable devastation.

He was unable to stand, as if his spine had been removed.

He collapsed on the ground, tears and snot flowing, clutching his head and wailing in pain, wishing he could dig his brain out alive.

The teachers' expressions changed repeatedly, but only He Longting was full of appreciation, even faintly proud.

"Do not forget what you have done..."

Yue Shu recalled the Storm Dragon, which was being tortured by the curse, back to the Pet Beast space, and looked down from a high position at Chen Long, who was acting like a madman.

"I want you to pay it back a thousand times over!"
