Six o'clock, the curtain lifted on the Soto City Great Soul Fighting Arena.
Shadows poured in.
Today, the Soul Fighting Arena released insider information, saying the Shrek squad actually had a bet with the Bloodthirsty Demon Organization.
And tonight was the last night of the bet.
There would be extremely thrilling battles!
"Director, it's just past six, and I didn't expect the crowd has doubled compared to yesterday, even people from nearby cities have rushed over. We've exceeded the maximum capacity, and the numbers are still rising!"
The Soul Arena's data supervisor was continuously reporting the situation!
"Get me more temporary seating, cram in as many people as possible!!"
At this moment, the person in charge of the Soul Arena gave the orders.
"Chief, what do you think? Look..."
In a certain room, a rotund figure in red was rubbing his hands eagerly.
"This piece of information is very valuable, take these 300 Gold Coins for yourself."
The Chief took out a bag of Gold Coins from a drawer.
"300 Gold Coins!! Then I won't be shy!!"
The corpulent figure's eyes lit up at the mention of 300 Gold Coins and joyously left the office with the bag of Gold Coins.
However, he didn't know that this wave of news directly brought in nearly three million Gold Coins for the Soul Arena.
The Soto City Soul Arena had a maximum seating capacity of thirty thousand.
But the business conditions have been declining each day, and even a sold-out event only drew just over ten thousand people, typically only four to five thousand.
With a regular ticket costing ten Gold Coins, such a grand Soul Arena would usually only bring in forty or fifty thousand Gold Coins a day, a hundred thousand at a full house.
But it was driving the Chief crazy.
However, tonight's news sent the attendee numbers skyrocketing to forty thousand.
That is to say that just from regular tickets alone, the income was four hundred thousand!!
That's an increase of three hundred thousand compared to usual times.
Three hundred Gold Coins exchanged for three hundred thousand in revenue, what a windfall.
He was now considering whether to move all the Bloodthirsty Demon's fights to the central arena.
During this period, he also discovered a curious thing, that is, the Bloodthirsty Demon Organization seemed never to appear on stage at the same time.
According to this, he could completely move the opposite party to the central platform.
A ticket for the central platform costs 100 Gold Coins.
This could be another big profit.
The Soul Arena wouldn't need to worry about a financial crisis anymore!
"Thump thump thump!"
Suddenly, a rapid knocking sound came from outside the door.
"Come in! What is it, raising such a fuss? Is there a fire?!"
Hearing this urgent sound.
The Chief spoke with annoyance.
The person entering was a clerk from the front desk, a fairly attractive woman dressed in uniform.
"Director Ao! It's terrible! A major incident has occurred!!"
The woman, who was a clerk, said, looking a bit pale.
"Even though you're a manager, what could be so alarming that you're making such a scene? Tell me."
Director Ao said leisurely, sipping the freshly brewed tea, with a look of annoyance.
After all, she was a manager, why did she behave as if she had never seen the world before.
"Director Ao, just now, the Bloodthirsty Demons joined the Dou Huang Battle Team, becoming the reserve member of the Dou Huang Battle Team!"
A Soul Arena Team usually consists of seven members, but one substitute can be added.
The substitute can normally compete, only needing to match the substitute's badge with the battle team's badge at the Soul Arena.
Crash!!
Director Ao's cup slipped from his hand, falling straight to the ground.
"What! Are you saying that the Bloodthirsty Demons became the reserve for the Dou Huang Battle Team? Is this true?!!"
Director Ao, coming back to his senses, asked with immense pleasure in his heart.
Because he smelled an opportunity!!
"Yes, yes! And, and..."
The clerk hesitated.
"And what? Spit it out!"
Director Ao asked impatiently.
"And that person said that the Dou Huang Battle Team will challenge the Shrek squad tonight. If the Shrek squad doesn't respond, regardless of which team the Dou Huang Battle Team faces, he will place a bet of ten million on the Dou Huang Battle Team's victory! He said, his patience will only last until ten o'clock!"
The clerk reported.
"What!!"
Director Ao shot up from his seat like a spring.
Ten million!!
The Dou Huang Battle Team all had the best Soul Ring configurations.
With the addition of the Bloodthirsty Demons, which ordinary team could win? The opposition was guaranteed to win!!
If the Soul Arena lost ten million, that would be a serious incident.
Now, it's too late to shut down the betting!
Because tonight, there were as many as forty thousand people present.
Almost half of them had bought some more or less.
As for disqualifying the Dou Huang Battle Team's right to compete,
There's no reason to do that.
The other party didn't break any rules!
Besides, could someone who could shell out ten million be anyone simple?
"Chief Ao, what should we do now?"
The beautiful manager asked, her face full of confusion.
"What else can we do but to find the leader of Shrek? This challenge match has to involve them!!"
Chief Ao replied at that moment.
Ten million, their Soul Arena couldn't afford such a loss.
And once this news spread, others would surely bet on the Soul Fighting teams as well.
The lowest ratio was one to one.
When that time came, it would be a huge loss for their Soul Arena.
"Yes!!"
With that, the two headed in the direction of the private box where Shrek was located.
"Brock, where have you been?"
In the exclusive VIP box on the second floor.
Both Flander and Wuji were there.
Flander was asking at that moment.
"Hmph, how does it concern you where I go?"
He snorted coldly and spoke directly to Flander.
"You!!"
Flander's heart burned with anger upon hearing those words.
All the other little monsters were there, and he, Flander, was the dean after all. His old friend was deliberately making things difficult for him!
It was really a case of no good deed going unpunished.
Their current relationship was as awkward as borrowing and repaying money.
Previously, the Master had pleaded with Flander to lend him some money. Out of brotherhood, Flander had given all he had, only to have one request for repayment turn into hatred, to the point that they couldn't even be brothers anymore.
Flander truly felt bitter inside.
"I'm back. Has the registration started yet?"
At that moment, the door to the box opened, and a head popped in.
"Fatty, where have you been? Why did it take you so long to come back!"
Mubai said irritably, looking towards the fatty.
Nothing much, just had some stomach trouble and went to the toilet.
Ma Hongjun scratched the back of his head and said with a smile.
"The Master is back; they'll probably start registration soon."
Oscar commented.
"Knock knock knock!"
The very second after the fatty came in, a sound came from the door.
"Who are you?"
The person by the door asked with confusion.
The fatty beside him just froze on the spot.
Thousands of thoughts raced through his mind!!
"Who is the leader of Shrek Academy?"
At that moment, Chief Ao asked.
It was all over; could it be because of some misinformation he had previously provided, they had come looking for the Master?
But those words had come directly from the Master's mouth.
There couldn't be a mistake!!
The fatty beside panic ensued!!
Indeed, he was the one who provided the inside information.
The main reason was that he was recently out of money to visit brothels.
He just wanted to make some small changes! Initially hoping to trade for a few dozen gold coins, he never expected that the manager would be so generous as to give him three hundred gold coins!
"It's me!"
The Master looked out the window, standing with his hands behind him and turning his back on Director Ao and the others.
He unconsciously exuded an air of authority.
"Sir leader, I am the manager of the grand soul fighting arena. May I speak with you privately about something?"
Despite the Master's haughty attitude, Director Ao had to bear it since he was the one seeking assistance.
"Oh? The manager of the Soul Fighting arena? Then just say what you need to right here."
The Master glanced at Director Ao, still sounding aloof.
