The tall female and short male couple had already been swiftly removed by the Staff mber of the gambling arena.
Mingxi and Golden Yuanbao's opponent in the second match was a pair of brothers wielding twin broadaxes and two King-rank Transcendent creatures, Jueyan Lions, with both Fire and Demon-type attributes.
It's worth ntioning that both Jueyan Lions were adorned with various Item Crafter tools that enhanced and strengthened their abilities.
For example, there were sensory bracelets that could detect the opponent's energy fluctuations.
Another example was the Fire Elent Ring, which could increase the power of Fire-attribute skills.
And so on...
If not for Mingxi's current eidetic mory and knowledge base as vast as the sea, she wouldn't have recognized the two Transcendent creatures in front of her as Jueyan Lions.
Looking at their 'gold and silver-adorned,' 'jewel-encrusted' appearance, one might have thought they were pampered canaries of so wealthy magnate.
Aside from the taboos ntioned earlier, 9 Slaughter 18 Deaths was otherwise completely uninhibited.
Items, potions—as long as you had them, you could use them freely.
It was clear that the gambling arena, or rather, Li Lianzhi, had invested heavily; not to ntion the items that ard the Transcendent creatures to the teeth, the Jueyan Lions' dual Fire and Demon-type attributes were quite effective against Lightning and Flight types.
Golden Yuanbao hadn't used any Demon-type skills in the previous match, so no one knew it was actually a three-attribute Transcendent creature.
Once its Demon-type was exposed, its and her identities would be obvious.
After all, there was only one Transcendent creature with Demon, Lightning, and Flight attributes in the entire alliance currently.
Although Golden Yuanbao had a pair of easily noticeable demon horns, it wasn't as if there weren't other types of Transcendent creatures with horns.
"They actually sent out the Twin Suckers brothers in the second match."
"These two brothers love to torture and kill young, beautiful Beast Tars on the battle stage; that woman better truly have strength, otherwise she's going to be miserable."
"By the way, why do you call them the Twin Suckers brothers? They clearly use twin broadaxes; what does that have to do with 'sucking'?"
Hearing this question, many people laughed obscenely.
"Little brother, you clearly haven't seen the Twin Suckers brothers' battles before. Just watch, you'll know why soon enough. Hehehe..."
Mingxi naturally couldn't hear what so people in the audience were saying.
"Both sides in position, battle begin!"
The referee's emotionless voice once again fell.
This ti, Mingxi didn't dodge; instead, she quickly threw out a Defense Bubble Ball.
The Defense Bubble Ball was a relatively common defensive item on Green Field Star, as its main material was a unique tal ore from Green Field Star called Bobo Gold.
The Defense Bubble Ball's grade ranged from F to SSS, with the specific grade determined by the quality of the materials and the Item Crafter's ability.
The one Mingxi threw was an SS-rank, and it was also a version improved by Chiyu.
Alas.
With a celestial beast at ho, what she lacked least now were potions and items.
An SS-rank Defense Bubble Ball was enough for her to rest easy until the end of the second match.
Unless the twin broadaxes of the brothers opposite were SSS-rank offensive weapons.
"Fla Jet."
"Shadow Stitch."
The two brothers charged straight towards Mingxi while commanding their Transcendent creatures.
Mingxi, anwhile, calmly took out a rocking chair and lay down, casually pulling out a handful of lon seeds to leisurely snack on. This scene made the audience's eyelids twitch.
The Twin Broadaxe brothers were even more exasperated.
They were so angry they wanted to spring up on the spot.
Disregard.
Blatant disregard!
"Bitch!"
The brothers' eyes widened in rage, and their twin broadaxes chopped down heavily from four directions.
The montum was strong, and the attacks were even more fierce.
The whooshing sound, the bulging biceps.
"Boom boom boom boom!"
Four loud bangs.
"Crack crack crack..."
Don't misunderstand, it wasn't the Defense Bubble Ball shattering, but soone cracking lon seeds with even more vigor.
"How is this possible?!"
The brothers looked at the perfectly intact Defense Bubble Ball, then at their trembling, reddened arms gripping the twin broadaxes, falling into deep doubt about their worldview.
The twin broadaxes in their hands were specially customized by an SS-rank Item Crafter of the underground gambling arena based on their physical condition.
Whether it was for chopping bones or cutting at, the effect was excellent.
Since switching to these two weapons, they felt even more invigorated in killing and arson.
But now, they couldn't even break a re Defense Bubble Ball.
In the exclusive top-floor private box, Li Lianzhi, who also witnessed this scene, sat at a luxurious long table. At this mont, he no longer had the disheveled appearance from being crushed and beaten by Mingxi earlier.
He was back to his elegant and noble elite deanor.
As he cut the mousse cake on the table with a dissecting knife, an unknown liquid, either beast blood or human blood, lingered on the blade, slowly seeping into the cream and quickly rendering it a beautiful pink.
He picked up a piece and put it into his mouth, slightly pursing his lips, which curved into a faint smile, as if savoring the deliciousness of the cake.
Then he frowned slightly.
He raised his hand, and the figure hidden in the darkness behind him bowed and approached.
"Today's cake tastes... sour."
"I'll have soone deal with the pastry chef imdiately."
Li Lianzhi 'hmm'ed, "Don't waste the ingredients; just turn him into dessert."
"Yes."
The attendant standing by the table quietly listened to their conversation, maintaining a calm facade, but the cold sweat constantly seeping from his back and his slightly trembling hands and feet all betrayed his nervousness.
Li Lianzhi seed not to notice the attendant's emotions.
He looked up at the battle stage below, casually picked up a high-stemd glass nearby, and gently swirled it, his movents as elegant as if he were holding a fresh red rose.
Crimson liquid traced a cold arc along the rim of the glass.
But it was not as cold as the smile on his lips.
"Another item? An SSS-rank Defense Bubble Ball, perhaps... That's really... rich! Are you nervous?"
He suddenly crushed the high-stemd glass.
The attendant didn't realize he was «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» speaking to him; by the ti he did, a sharp glass shard had already pierced his carotid artery!
"Hiss... hiss..."
The attendant's eyes widened, clutching his constantly bleeding neck, gasping for air like a fish out of water.
"Thud."
The attendant's lifeless body fell, his unseeing eyes filled with unresigned death.
"Drag him away, feed him to Xiao You."
"Yes."
"Who do you think she could be?"
"Your subordinate does not know."
"I, however, think she greatly resembles soone..." The brown pupils behind Li Lianzhi's glasses flickered with extre, icy coldness.
"Ming—Xi—"
Mingxi didn't know her cover had been blown.
Of course, she was ntally prepared for this exposure.
Unless she used 【Genetic Simulation】, given what she and Golden Yuanbao had shown, it was only a matter of ti before they were recognized.
"Shadow Stitch."
"Fire Pillar."
These two Jueyan Lions still had so tricks up their sleeves; at least their coordination was excellent, with one controlling and the other attacking.
Moreover, their skills also seed to co in pairs.
When one Jueyan Lion's skill was on cooldown, the other would seamlessly follow up.
