78: I wish I could be like Chu Tianyi.
This voice that suddenly rang out naturally drew the attention of both Zhao Ming and Wang Jinze.
When they turned their heads to look, they saw a burly young man dressed in black athletic gear standing right in front of them!
On his arms, there were flame tattoos that were not covered by his clothes.
Without a doubt, this burly young man was none other than Wang Linhu, currently ranked sixth on the hidden dragon ranking!
Although Wang Linhu had previously been defeated by Wu Xuangu, causing his own ranking to slide from third place all the way down to sixth, no one would ever question his strength.
After all, among the current New Students at Modu Beast University, Wang Linhu was still among those at the very pinnacle of the pyramid.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Wang Jinze finally reacted: "Of course, no one is sitting here. If you want to sit, just sit."
"Thanks."
Wang Linhu nodded slightly and then sat down directly.
Zhao Ming blinked and asked curiously: "Are you also here to watch the duel between Lin Yuan and Yuan Liean?"
"Why? Can't I come?"
Wang Linhu smiled and then asked: "By the way, how is Song Lan's injury?"
"It has recovered quite a bit; I estimate it won't be long before it can be discharged."
Zhao Ming said: "Your relationship with Song Lan... seems pretty good?"
"Yeah, I'm its friend."
Wang Linhu said calmly: "In many things, we are like-minded."
"I was also present the day Song Lan was injured."
"To be honest, I really wanted to stand up for it, but unfortunately... I don't have your friend's courage."
Wang Jinze, who was to the side, shook his head and said: "This isn't your fault. If you had attacked Yuan Liean, you would definitely have drawn the targeting of Wu Xuangu."
"At the end of the day, it's just that my own strength isn't enough."
Wang Linhu gave a bitter smile and spoke as if mocking himself: "If I had strength like Chu Tianyi, why would I be so hesitant and fearful?"
Among the New Students at Modu Beast University, Chu Tianyi had already become a legendary existence.
You have to know, when climbing the hidden dragon ranking, Chu Tianyi had never once been defeated.
Moreover, he could almost be said to have risen to the top by stepping on the Ranking Hunters.
Whether it was the second-ranked Shen Cang or the third-ranked Wu Xuangu, all of them were his defeated opponents and were never taken seriously by him.
He also didn't care at all what the Ranking Hunters had done.
To Chu Tianyi, the Ranking Hunters were merely obstacles existing in front of him.
Since they were obstacles, he just needed to sweep them away.
His gaze, from beginning to end, was only on that top position of the hidden dragon ranking!
And Chu Tianyi had truly and certainly achieved it.
He used his own strength to prove to everyone who was the most powerful existence among all the New Students at Modu Beast University!
Just then, Wang Jinze suddenly changed the subject and asked abruptly: "Then who do you think will win today's duel?"
Wang Linhu smiled and said indifferently: "I bet ten million on Lin Yuan. What do you think?"
After hearing Wang Linhu's answer, the corners of Wang Jinze's mouth couldn't help but twitch violently.
"Even if you really believe Lin Yuan can win, you can't bet that much all at once, right?"
At this moment, Wang Jinze felt like cursing in his heart.
No wonder the odds for Lin Yuan were so high; it turned out this guy had actually bet ten million.
Although the betting pool he opened was aimed at all New Students, ten million was a significant amount in the entire betting pool, enough to raise the odds by at least one point.
However, after hearing this, the smile on Wang Linhu's face became even brighter: "If I don't bet more, how can I make more money?"
"If I haven't guessed wrong, this betting pool was opened by you, right?"
"The little tricks you and Lin Yuan are playing, others might not see, but that doesn't mean I can't see them."
"However, thanks to you, I've made quite a bit of money."
"So, this time... I'm betting you can win again. I hope you won't let me down."
Wang Jinze cursed inwardly, dammit, this kid looks boorish, but I didn't expect him to be so insidious.
He and Lin Yuan were eating meat, and this guy actually wanted a share of the spoils.
However, fortunately, not many people had the vision of Wang Linhu, otherwise this business really wouldn't have been profitable.
Just then, Zhao Ming suddenly said: "Hey, look everyone, Yuan Liean has already gotten on the arena!"
After he said this, the eyes of Wang Jinze and Wang Linhu immediately looked toward the direction of the arena.
They saw a tall figure with long arms had indeed already stepped onto the arena.
Wang Jinze said in surprise: "The duel hasn't started yet, has it? What exactly does this guy want to do?"
At this moment, everyone in the audience couldn't help but focus their gazes on Yuan Liean.
"He is Yuan Liean? He looks quite imposing."
"Nonsense, this guy is known as the number one fighter of the Ranking Hunters. Many New Students who provoked this organization were dealt with by this guy."
"So, this Yuan Liean is very strong?"
"Of course, without some strength, how could he be the face of the Ranking Hunters? If he really wanted to climb the rankings, it wouldn't be impossible for him to even break into the top ten of the hidden dragon ranking."
"Hiss... so scary? Doesn't that mean Lin Yuan doesn't have a chance of winning at all?"
"That's not necessarily true. This Lin Yuan is also a ruthless person. To challenge Yuan Liean, he went on a twelve-game winning streak, climbing from the 312th place on the hidden dragon ranking all the way to 32nd."
"Yeah, and in the last few battles, he could almost be said to have achieved overwhelming victories in all of them."
"Damn, in that case, this duel is really worth watching."
Just as the crowd in the audience was discussing it.
Yuan Liean on the arena suddenly raised his head, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings calmly.
Although his eyes had no ripples, they seemed to hide a cruel beast waiting to devour people.
Finally, Yuan Liean spoke, his voice low like muffled thunder: "I know that everyone came here today to watch the duel between me and Lin Yuan."
"You want to know who is stronger and who is weaker between me and Lin Yuan!"
"But I can tell you now..."
"The person who wins in the end will definitely be me!"
"And I also hope that after this duel, more people will be willing to join us, the Ranking Hunters, to work with us to maintain the dignity of the organization and our own interests!"
"And that there won't be... anyone else stupid enough to come and provoke the dignity of us, the Ranking Hunters!"
