"Instructor, is this your waiting room??"
Luxurious.
Unprecedented luxury.
It was just like an imperial palace.
Everything one could ask for was available.
Compared to the VIP room they were in before, it was like comparing a palace to a slum!
To think that such a place existed in the small Soto City's Soul Fighting Arena, it must be for the exclusive use of the royal line!!
Just who is the instructor!!
"Mm-hmm, we'll just wait here tonight, and there's a special passage when it's time to go on stage, so no need to go back to the public waiting area."
Ye Feng said.
"Instructor, the daily rent for this place must be very expensive, right?"
Yufeng caressed the genuine leather sofa.
It was soft to the touch, and her eyes twinkled with the light of money!
It was even better than what she had at home.
"Not bad, just ten thousand gold coins a day."
Ye Feng spoke.
With twenty million gold coins now in his possession, spending ten thousand a day did not perturb him at all.
It's like if you had two thousand dollars, would you care about spending one dollar on something?
In your view, it's a trivial amount of money.
Furthermore, renting for a week for seventy thousand gold coins, he earned far more just from sweeping through the Soul Fighting Arena records.
"Just??"
Upon hearing this, everyone felt inexplicably short of breath.
The wealthiest among them would probably be Osslor and Yu Tianheng.
However, both of them only received ten thousand gold coins a month for living expenses from their families.
Other people, like the slightly less fortunate Ye Lingling and the Shi Mo Shi Mo brothers, only received a few hundred to a thousand gold coins a month for their living expenses.
Truly the instructor.
Wealthy as can be.
"Instructor, today the Bloodthirsty Demon is joining our Dou Huang Battle Team. Although he's just a substitute, I guess he's supposed to play tonight, right?"
At that moment, Yu Tianheng turned to ask.
"Mm-hmm, of course."
Ye Feng nodded.
"Then how do you plan to arrange it, Instructor?"
Dugu Yan also asked.
With the addition of the Bloodthirsty Demon, the Dou Huang Battle Team had eight people, meaning one had to sit out.
"I was just about to discuss this with you all."
Ye Feng said.
Everyone gathered closer, fully attentive.
Through the days they have spent together, they came to see their instructor as nothing short of a godlike figure.
Truth be told, they had never admired anyone before, until they met the instructor.
Handsome, insanely strong, and easy to talk to!!
"After the Bloodthirsty Demon joins, the Dou Huang Battle Team will need to readjust both tactics and formation. We'll keep only one defense-type Soul Master. Tonight, Shi Mo, you'll stay; however, this change is only for tonight. If any of you have concerns, feel free to speak up."
Ye Feng announced his decision.
Having two defense-type Soul Masters indeed made things more stable.
But stability was not what they needed tonight.
They sought speed!!
"I have no problem with it."
Shi Mo said.
The instructor had his reasons for arranging things this way, and it was only for one night, so it wasn't a big deal.
It was a good opportunity to rest.
"We don't have any problems either."
At that moment, they all nodded.
If Shi Mo, who was staying behind, had no issue, then naturally they had no problems either.
"Alright then, I'll go report the lineup now. If anyone wants to make some easy money, let me know!"
Ye Feng revealed a uniquely mischievous smile.
"I'm going in with a hundred thousand!"
Yu Tianheng directly took out a card!
With the Bloodthirsty Demon joining their Dou Huang Battle Team, there was no reason to hold back this time!
"I'm in for fifty thousand!"
"Fifty thousand!"
"Twenty thousand!"
...
They certainly knew what the instructor was referring to.
"Each of you is pretty clever."
Ye Feng revealed a smile.
He collected all their cards.
This too could be considered something he left for them after his departure.
It had to be said, the group had been quite sensible during the days they had spent together.
"Instructor, when will the Bloodthirsty Demon come?"
Dugu Yan was seen standing up and asking this question.
In a flash, everyone turned to look at Ye Feng.
They really were too eager to meet this mysterious guest.
"Him? He'll be here in a while."
Ye Feng left this message and then went out.
Soon the biggest screen in the soul fighting arena cleared all other messages.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the lineup for the last team battle taking place in the grand soul fighting arena has now been released! It's our Dou Huang Battle Team versus the Shrek squad!"
First, the screen showed the seven members of Shrek squad.
The next second, a 'VS' with electric effects appeared in the middle.
On the other side, the portraits of Dou Huang Battle Team Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, Shi Mo, Osslor, Yufeng, and Ye Lingling were displayed.
At the forefront was a black question mark on a profile picture!!
"Damn it, can the Soul Arena act a bit more professional instead of pulling these stunts all the time!"
"Right, just tell us if it's the Bloodthirsty Demon!!"
...
The audience below, frustrated by the Soul Arena's teasing, started to grow angry.
They immediately began shouting profanities.
"Keng Qiang~~"
A sound like that of a cell phone starting up rang out.
The next second, the question-marked portrait was replaced by the figure of someone wearing a red mask!!
In an instant, the entire place erupted with excitement!!
It really was the Bloodthirsty Demon!!
He had joined the Dou Huang Battle Team.
To be honest, when they had first heard this news, they had been unwilling to believe it!!
How could the Bloodthirsty Demon possibly join some outsider's battle team?
They were exactly seven people.
They ought to have formed their own team.
And yet!!
Today, numbers two through seven had disappeared.
Only the Bloodthirsty Demon alone had fought seventy-nine battles.
Smashing the Soul Fighting record on the Continent!!
"Bet on the Dou Huang Battle Team to win with this amount for me!!"
At that moment, Ye Feng took out a slip of paper.
These were the amounts each member was betting tonight.
"Sir, you... you want to bet more than five million?"
The waiter was stunned by the number.
"What, is that not possible?"
Ye Feng asked.
"It's possible, but the odds for the Dou Huang Battle Team are one to one, and Shrek squad is one to one hundred; I still suggest you think it over, sir."
Because of the one-to-one-hundred odds offered,
many punters who had intended to bet on the Dou Huang Battle Team tonight had changed their minds at the last minute.
One to one hundred, after all.
If Shrek turns out to be the dark horse tonight, they'd make a fortune!!
After all, that kid called Tang San wasn't weak.
Although he didn't defeat his opponents with punches alone, those strange little things he used were quite effective.
What if they won?
"No need, just place the bet for me."
Would he bet on Shrek? He would have to be insane to bet on the opposition winning!
The Soul Arena knew Shrek was likely to lose, which is precisely why they set a one-to-one-hundred ratio to attract punters.
Indeed, a gambler's psyche always yearns to take a risk, to turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.
In reality, as they keep taking risks, they end up with nothing!
"Alright, sir, please hold on a moment."
The servant was then seen trembling slightly as he swiped the card.
Immediately afterward, he reported the news straight to Chief Ao of the Soul Arena!!
As expected, the man leaped up in excitement once more!!
