Chapter 30: Hundreds of Thousands of Eco Points an Hour! One Against 3,000!
The instant that line of text appeared, the surroundings fell silent.
“Damn it, Tenth Heaven of the Innate Realm?”
“My money!”
“Pfft, all my money’s gone!”
“Damn that brat, he came here just to swindle us, didn’t he? He must have bet on the other guy to win and then come up here to get beaten on purpose!”
“I object! I demand a full investigation into this kid!”
…………
In an instant, all the gamblers saw red. Large numbers of Anger Traits burst out, and dazzling white light orbs scattered all over the ground.
Even Xiao Xuan could not help clicking his tongue at the sight.
There were so many. If the place were not this crowded, he definitely would have swept them all up.
“Both sides, get ready! The fight begins!!”
At that moment, the referee also shouted into his microphone.
BOOM!!!
The instant his words fell, Xiao Xuan turned straight into a streak of violet lightning and began racing madly around the entire arena platform at terrifying speed.
“What is he trying to do?”
The Grandmaster on the other side instantly felt his pupils contract violently.
He stared at Xiao Xuan in full vigilance, but Xiao Xuan was simply too fast. His eyes could not catch Xiao Xuan’s figure at all.
Finally, as the ring of violet lightning rapidly contracted, a fist suddenly appeared right in front of his chest!
BOOM!!
Before he could even react, a terrifying force slammed into his chest. His entire body was sent flying backward on the spot, smashing straight through the arena barrier before crashing heavily into the distant wall!
At that moment, everyone below was dumbstruck.
“He won!!”
At last, one person was the first to react, and in the next instant, most of the people present burst into excited cheers.
That meant their money had been saved!
At the same time, Xiao Xuan glanced at his system interface.
【Ding… Congratulations. You picked up a large number of Traits and obtained 5,578 Eco Points!】
A prompt sounded.
The reason he had circled the platform earlier was precisely to collect every Trait on it.
Fortunately, the harvest was not bad.
“These Traits can last for three hours. For this many to accumulate in three hours is already decent.”
“But if I win one match, it takes seven or eight minutes.”
“The real problem is that everyone else is too slow.”
“These Grandmaster-level platforms still aren’t enough!”
Naturally, Xiao Xuan was not satisfied with that number.
If every platform were reserved for him to collect from, he naturally would not think that way. But the problem was that with so many Traits around, he could only pick them up by challenging the platforms one by one.
“Silverwing, does this colosseum have some kind of fast-combat zone?”
“Or a platform where large numbers of people fight together?”
Puzzled, Xiao Xuan asked Silverwing.
“Replying to Master, those who are confident enough can generally open a Multi-Person Arena, which means one person challenges many.
“However, to open a Multi-Person Arena, you need to put up Stakes. After all, people will not come for free!”
Silverwing replied respectfully.
Hearing that, Xiao Xuan’s eyes lit up immediately.
“Then can this kind of Multi-Person Arena hold hundreds or even thousands of fighters?”
Xiao Xuan hurriedly asked.
“Yes. As long as the Stakes are high enough, an arena with no participant limit can theoretically be established!”
“Eighty years ago, a prodigy once opened a Grandmaster-level arena with no participant limit in the colosseum!”
“That one battle attracted more than seventeen hundred participants!”
“And the Stakes he offered were a weapon worth one hundred million.”
“Unfortunately, that genius overestimated himself and ended up losing!”
“Because a great many prodigies of the same level came to challenge him! There was even a High Purple talent among them!
“If Master wishes to set up such an arena, you only need to tell me! I can establish it directly on the colosseum’s official website!”
Silverwing spoke respectfully to Xiao Xuan.
When he heard that, Xiao Xuan immediately smiled.
“Set it up. Of course we’re setting it up! As for the weapon, use my Thunderflame Frenzy Saber as the Stakes.”
“Right, set up one first where anyone at or below the Fifth Heaven of the Grandmaster Realm can participate!”
Xiao Xuan directly issued the command to Silverwing.
“Yes, Master. Your request has already been submitted!”
Silverwing’s respectful voice sounded instantly.
…………
Xiao Xuan then simply stood quietly on the platform and waited.
Yet no one came to challenge him.
Because his registered realm was only the Tenth Heaven of the Innate Realm, challengers were not allowed to exceed that level unless Xiao Xuan himself agreed to lift the restriction. Since Xiao Xuan said nothing, naturally no one came looking for a beating.
Finally, ten minutes later, Xiao Xuan’s Multi-Person Arena was approved.
“Announcement, announcement! A martial artist has opened a Multi-Person Arena! Prize Pool: 500 million!
“Creator: Purple Thunderflame
“Realm: Tenth Heaven of the Innate Realm
“Number of challengers: No limit
“Challenger realm: At or below the Fifth Heaven of the Grandmaster Realm
“Challenge entry fee: 100,000. Upon victory, the Prize Pool will be divided according to contribution.
“The match platform has been established in Colosseum Sector 251! All those who wish to watch, please head there immediately!”
In an instant, the huge announcement resounded throughout the entire first and second zones!
Five hundred million was not a small sum, though it was not unimaginably large either.
What Xiao Xuan had not expected, however, was that there was actually an entry fee as well.
And all of the entry fees went to him.
If a thousand people came, then would that not mean he would make one hundred million?
At that moment, Xiao Xuan even felt that he had set the Prize Pool too low. If he had made it bigger, he might have attracted even more people!
But the instant news of his Multi-Person Arena appeared, the entire dueling grounds exploded into an uproar!
“Damn it, Tenth Heaven of the Innate Realm, challenging an unlimited number of opponents at or below the Fifth Heaven of the Grandmaster Realm?
“Who is this Purple Thunderflame? Could it be that another prodigy above Mid Silver has come to our place!?”
“No idea, but I’m definitely going to watch a spectacle like this! I can’t miss a fight that he is guaranteed to lose! This is free money!”
…………
…………
For a time, all the martial artists who had come here to strike it rich surged in great waves toward the sector where Xiao Xuan was.
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!!
At that same moment, Sector 251, where Xiao Xuan stood, began to change.
The ground around the platforms rapidly rose.
The raised earth gradually formed an even larger arena.
Once the matches on the other platforms finished, they were immediately halted as well.
In the end, all the platforms, together with the empty ground in the middle, connected into one gigantic arena.
That arena had already reached a diameter of more than three thousand meters.
If no one minded being packed together, it could hold several million people.
Of course, that would be far too crowded.
…………
And just then, one martial artist after another began stepping onto the arena.
Almost all of them were Grandmasters.
Naturally, there were also a few at the Tenth Heaven of the Innate Realm who had come up as well, hoping to claim a share of the contribution.
As long as they won, they would most likely at least recover their costs. After all, with a Prize Pool of 500 million, as long as the total number of participants did not exceed one thousand, people could generally break even.
And if someone managed to land even a single hit on Xiao Xuan, the amount they received would multiply severalfold.
Needless to say, if by some miracle they actually defeated Xiao Xuan.
That was why quite a few people confident in their own strength had chosen to join this match.
They could still afford 100,000.
“A mere Tenth Heaven of the Innate Realm, and he dares to open this kind of cross-realm arena? This kid has nerve, I’ll give him that!”
“He has nerve, and he has money too! Five hundred million! Even a Martial King would feel real pain taking out that much!”
“And this brat is just handing it away for nothing!”
“Don’t underestimate him. What if he’s some monstrous genius?”
“A monstrous genius? Didn’t you see who those people in the front are?
“The one carrying the giant axe on his back—he’s one of Nanhai University’s Top Hundred geniuses!”
“That’s only because he’s still in his third year. If he were already in his tenth year, he’d have a shot at the top ten!”
“At the same level, even the three most talented among them could only barely defeat him. Let alone trying to cross five minor realms to do it!”
“And even if he beats one of us, there are still so many of us here. If each person launches just one round of attacks, we can still bury him!”
…………
The martial artists on the arena were all discussing it among themselves.
As for Xiao Xuan, once he saw that the number had already reached one thousand, he smiled. That was at least one hundred million in income already!
Of course, the most important part was that if he beat all one thousand of them into Severe Wounds, then at the very least, that would mean one thousand Blue Traits!
That would amount to hundreds of thousands, perhaps even over a million Eco Points!
After all, the value of a single Blue Trait ranged from 100 to 9999.
And one arena session lasted about an hour, which should be enough for him to deal with them all.
Hundreds of thousands in an hour—this speed was truly terrifying!
Yet what made Xiao Xuan even happier was that the number was still rising!
By the time registration closed, the total number had actually reached three thousand!
