Arbuluo didn't wait too long, just about half a stick of incense ti, and Gu Sheng's figure reappeared in the cave residence, covered in blood, and he cursed at him: "Are you fucking sick?"
You said you'd hamr him until his strength was down to one-tenth!
Though he knew Arbuluo's words were a bit exaggerated, he never expected it to be sheer blowing hot air. That human race combat cultivator didn't have a trace of injury on his body, and his speed after mana burst was extrely fast. On the contrary, his heavily injured body couldn't evade it, struggling with the opponent for a while and ended up getting slashed several tis.
If at his peak, Gu Sheng naturally wouldn't lose so quickly. His strength was comparable to Arbuluo, and if Arbuluo couldn't defeat him, he probably wouldn't either, but he could at least hold on for a while and wouldn't be defeated so embarrassingly.
As a result, he was slashed a few tis by the opponent, covered in blood, without even being able to figure out the opponent's background.
Arbuluo ignored Gu Sheng's curses, only furrowing his brows in thought, and after a long while, he exclaid: "So he really didn't use his full strength!"
When competing against Lu Ye, he had this feeling that Lu Ye's strength was gradually increasing along with the display of his Savage Beast Transformation.
The opponent didn't seem eager to decide the outco, but more inclined to temper himself in such a contest.
This isn't surprising, as many strong individuals who are confident in their own abilities would do the sa when facing suitable opponents. When Arbuluo first challenged the ranking, he did the sa, enjoying every battle with powerful opponents because they were difficult to find.
The most obvious evidence was the unusual saber skills the opponent used, which were strong enough to injure even him, who practiced ancient thods, yet the opponent didn't use them right away. It wasn't until he sensed that his strength was no longer advancing that he began to use heavy attacks, keeping a balanced state before that.
The opponent being able to do this undoubtedly ans his limit is higher and stronger than his own.
Arbuluo's eyes brightened...
All this ti, he had been deeply tapping into his own Moon Jade potential. If not for this, with his foundation, he could have long started preparing for the Sun Blaze ascension. He could feel there was potential yet untapped, but without a suitable opponent, he couldn't fulfill it.
But now, with the appearance of that human race combat cultivator, he saw a glimr of hope. If the opponent could be so strong, why couldn't he?
A sound ca from the side; it was Gu Sheng falling on the bed, old injuries not healed, and new ones added. Gu Sheng felt utterly exhausted, especially since he noticed so strange power entwining his wound, hindering its recovery.
In the Moon Jade Combat Field, countless cultivators were shaken. For no other reason than the era of Gu Sheng and Arbuluo dominating the Moon Jade Ranking had ended. Ever since these two ca to the Asura Field, they took turns occupying the top spot, and no one else qualified.
Until today, just monts ago, they were replaced by an unknown human race combat cultivator.
This person first fought Arbuluo, and after an intense battle, Arbuluo was defeated and voluntarily surrendered, then went on non-stop to fight Gu Sheng again... the battle with Gu Sheng was cleanly won. The observing cultivators saw it clearly; Gu Sheng seed severely injured, unable to exert strong strength.
The human race combat cultivator who could defeat Arbuluo in his pri could naturally defeat a heavily wounded Gu Sheng.
A new era had arrived. Countless people wanted to uncover the identity and background of the new top ranker, but unfortunately, with Lu Ye having just arrived at the Asura Field not long ago and not having many deep interactions with others, the information gathered was pitifully little.
anwhile, in the cave residence, Lu Ye, after a brief rest, received a ssage from Walnut, inviting him to et at the treasure vault's grand plaza.
Lu Ye grew expectant at once.
Having battled in the combat field for so long, it was finally ti for the division of the spoils.
He took out the Asura Authority Token, and with a thought, he appeared in the treasure vault.
He had just steadied himself when he heard a familiar voice from beside him: "This way!"
Lu Ye turned his head and saw Walnut jumping and waving to him, standing next to a dignified-looking woman.
He had seen this woman before; every ti Walnut entered the combat field, the woman was always with her, so the relationship must be extraordinary.
Lu Ye stepped forward, nodded to Walnut, and then looked at the woman.
Walnut introduced, "This is my ntor."
Lu Ye's heart tightened; Walnut had Moon Jade cultivation, and her ntor was certainly Sun Blaze.
The woman smiled and said, "I am Nan Lian."
Lu Ye bowed in greeting, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
Nan Lian smiled with pursed lips, "You're quite impressive." She had been in the combat field for many years and had never t soone so pleasing to her eyes. Thanks to Lu Ye, she was now quite affluent. Of course, that was secondary; the main thing was experiencing during the betting process with Lu Ye the unprecedented pleasure of spending extravagantly, either dramatically increasing her wealth or losing everything. This greatly helped polish her state of mind.
Walnut excitedly said at the side, "Guess, Fellow Daoist, based on the Asura Pact's agreent, how much control over the Asura Seal you got this ti?"
Lu Ye saw her expression and knew he reaped quite a lot, so he casually guessed a number: "One million?"
Walnut laughed delightedly, holding up three fingers like tender spring onions: "Three million six hundred seventy thousand plus!"
This is still because her starting capital was too small, and there weren't enough people betting on the final confrontation; otherwise, she would have won even more.
Looking over Lu Ye's various contests, the one she won the most from was undoubtedly the confrontation between Lu Ye and Arbuluo. In that match, apart from a few eccentric individuals who bet on Lu Ye, only she and her disciple did so. Almost everyone else placed their bets on Arbuluo.
After all, who would have thought that a human race combat cultivator, whom no one had ever seen, could force Arbuluo to concede?
The Asura Seals Lu Ye received amounted to more than 3,670,000, which ant her overall earnings were double that figure since the agreent was a fifty-fifty split.
Of course, the Asura Seals couldn't be traded directly, so Lu Ye could only gain control of these Asura Seals.
"What would Fellow Daoist like to buy? I can go get it for you now," Walnut asked.
"Please help exchange for so treasures that can enhance the quality of Magic Source," Lu Ye replied.
Walnut understood; such treasures were basically needed by cultivators above the Moon Jade level. Lu Ye's request was very normal, and she nodded, "Then, Fellow Daoist, please wait here for a mont."
With that said, the master and disciple pair disappeared.
Lu Ye waited quietly on the side.
Not long after, Walnut and her disciple reappeared, handing a storage ring to Lu Ye, "I exchanged a few at random, Fellow Daoist, please check."
"No need," Lu Ye said, putting away the storage ring. With the Asura Pact in place, Walnut couldn't play any tricks, unless she had a death wish.
While speaking, Walnut pulled out another item and handed it to Lu Ye, "This is a gift from my master."
Looking at it, Lu Ye found it to be a large piece of Green Moon Spirit Marrow. He had seen it before while exploring the treasure vault and vaguely rembered the price being over 380,000. The piece in front of him seed larger than the one he saw before, roughly estimated to be at least 500,000 Asura Seals.
After a brief pause, Lu Ye accepted it, "Thank you very much."
Although there's a saying that one shouldn't accept rewards without rit, Nan Lian had consistently bet on Lu Ye with her disciple, and the Asura Seals she earned were far more than her disciple's. Giving a piece of Green Moon Spirit Marrow as a token was nothing.
Knowing this, Lu Ye did not refuse, as his need for such treasures was massive. Having an extra piece could save him a lot of trouble in the future.
Nan Lian smiled warmly, "No need, thanks to you, I'm quite wealthy now."
She didn't shy away, speaking the truth directly.
"Fellow Daoist, do you have so ti?" Walnut asked from the side.
"Why?" Lu Ye looked at her.
Walnut giggled, "If you have ti, Fellow Daoist, I could invite you for a drink." Soone like Lu Ye was rare to encounter, and her master had advised her to connect if possible because one day they might need a favor.
Lu Ye thought for a mont and said, "After the recent battle, I'm quite exhausted...," indicating no interest in drinking, especially not with two sowhat unfamiliar won. It would be awkward if they had nothing to talk about.
Walnut nodded, "Next ti then, whenever you're free, just give a shout."
Lu Ye had no objection.
Walnut and her master bid farewell and left, but before leaving, Nan Lian seed to rember sothing and turned back to Lu Ye, "By the way, if you have spare ti, you might want to visit the Reward Hall. You might find sothing worthwhile, but if you do go, I advise you to change your identity to avoid resentnt."
Reward Hall...
Lu Ye was certainly familiar with this place. It was where cultivators in the Asura Field published various reward tasks, with the rewards being Asura Seals. However, cultivators couldn't set the price, as the reward amount was determined by the Asura Field based on the task's difficulty, preventing so cultivators from transferring Asura Seals in this way.
Because if they could set the price, a cultivator could post a very simple task and then set a very high reward, letting their own people take it.
Why is Nan Lian suggesting he go to the Reward Hall? And to change his identity...
Yet, Lu Ye felt that she bore no ill will towards him; in fact, she was appreciative and admiring because he had helped her win a lot of Asura Seals.
After so thought, Lu Ye decided to visit the Reward Hall, since he had nothing else to do for now.
As for refining those newly acquired, quality-enhancing Magic Source treasures, with his Talent Tree, it was hardly any trouble at all.
He didn't rush to the Reward Hall but instead returned to his own cave residence first.
Since Nan Lian advised changing his identity, he might as well comply. After all, he was quite experienced with such matters.
