In the Bitao Martial Academy, almost every day there were disciples challenging each other to fights, and the venue was almost always the Practice Battle Arena.
And with each challenge, a large number of disciples from Bitao Martial Academy would gather to spectate. Eventually, those watching felt that merely observing the duels was not that interesting, so some disciples started to use their cultivation resources to wager against one another. As a result, this trend of betting grew more and more popular, attracting nearly all the academy's disciples to participate.
Some disciples thus "lost their fortunes," squandering all their cultivation resources, while others "struck it rich overnight," winning a great deal of cultivation resources.
