Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2005: A Net Gain of One Million Contribution Points!

"With odds of ’one to seven,’ you bet two hundred thousand contribution points on yourself... which means you can get back one million four hundred thousand contribution points, and after subtracting the principal, you net one million two hundred thousand contribution points!"

The steward of the Life and Death Hall, ’Asaiah Nigel,’ took Wyatt Barnes’s crystal card, casually tossed it to the Copper Flame Elder responsible for hosting the bet, and then looked deeply at Wyatt Barnes once again:

"Even if you return forty thousand contribution points to me... today, you’ve netted a million contribution points!"

"In the history of our Fire Worship Sect, you are probably the first Holy Land disciple to earn a million contribution points in a single day!"

As Asaiah Nigel spoke, he couldn’t help but sigh.

"It was all thanks to Elder Nigel lending me the contribution points... Without that, I might not have earned even ten thousand contribution points, let alone a million. So, I still have to thank Elder Nigel."

Wyatt Barnes humbly smiled.

"You don’t need to thank me."

Asaiah Nigel shook his head, "If you hadn’t pawned that bow here, I wouldn’t have been able to lend you two hundred thousand contribution points... I just never expected that you would actually kill Wade Yorke and become today’s biggest winner!"

As he finished speaking, Asaiah Nigel’s gaze at Wyatt Barnes became even more complex.

Although, when Wyatt Barnes first pawned the bow, he vaguely sensed Wyatt’s confidence, he didn’t take it seriously.

Now it seems that perhaps from the very beginning, Wyatt Barnes knew he was destined to win!

At the same time, not only were the faces of the three Copper Flame Elders of the Life and Death Hall who came to their senses first extremely ugly, but the majority of the Holy Land disciples present also looked very grim.

Many of the Holy Land disciples clenched their fists tightly, their faces taut, as if their eyes would pop out.

"Three thousand contribution points... My three thousand contribution points just went down the drain like that?"

A thin Holy Land disciple slumped in the audience, his eyes vacant, looking like he had lost all will to live.

"Just three thousand contribution points and you’re yelling? I lost nine thousand contribution points! That’s my entire fortune! Damn it! Damn it!!"

Next to him, a burly Holy Land disciple nearly roared.

At the same time, his gaze shifted to the corpse lying on the ’Death Duel Arena,’ and he spat fiercely, "A true disciple, a Saint Immortal Realm powerhouse... actually killed by an ordinary elite disciple. Useless! Useless!!"

This Holy Land disciple’s outburst towards Wade Yorke’s corpse immediately sparked a fuse, completely igniting the anger of the Holy Land disciples who had bet on Wade Yorke.

"Truly disgraceful! A true disciple, dead at the hands of an ordinary elite disciple... In the history of our Fire Worship Sect, there’s never been such a useless person!"

"Not only in our Fire Worship Sect, but in the history of the other two sects, there’s never been such a useless person!"

"And to think you’re the son of the Fifth Elder of the Northern Qi Sect... You’re really embarrassing your father!"

"Both brothers, one after the other, died at the hands of Wyatt Barnes, it’s truly undeniable... If the Fifth Elder of the Northern Qi Sect, ’Russel Yorke,’ knew that his eldest son was also so useless, he’d probably be so enraged he’d vomit three liters of blood, right?"

"Wade Yorke, you’re a piece of trash, a loser! You made me lose so many contribution points, why didn’t you just die earlier?!"

...

A group of Holy Land disciples erupted, like a flood, unchecked and uncontrollable.

Various insulting words spewed from the mouths of the Holy Land disciples, utterly ignoring the ’respect the dead’ sentiment, as they vented their anger and dissatisfaction with Wade Yorke.

"Did Wyatt Barnes really win?"

There were also a few Holy Land disciples who had bet some contribution points on Wyatt Barnes, who, after returning to their senses, looked excited.

"If I had known Wyatt Barnes would win, I would have bet more on him!"

"Come on! Don’t be greedy! It’s enough that we didn’t lose like others... Don’t you see how many people wish they could tear Wade Yorke apart? They must have lost a lot of contribution points!"

...

While a few Holy Land disciples whispered to each other, they also went to find the Copper Flame Elders in the Life and Death Hall to collect the contribution points they won.

"Brother Wyatt, congratulations!"

Mats Davidson jumped into the air, approaching Wyatt Barnes to offer his congratulations.

"Brother Mats, go collect your earned contribution points."

Wyatt Barnes laughed.

Hearing Wyatt’s words, Mats Davidson immediately felt a bit embarrassed.

It should be known that he had bet on Wyatt mainly to repay a favor he owed Wyatt; he had even prepared to lose the hundred contribution points.

Yet unexpectedly, Wyatt actually killed Wade Yorke and claimed the final victory!

This means he earned an additional six hundred contribution points for no reason.

"Brother Wyatt, congratulations!"

At the same time, Kori Willow also approached Wyatt Barnes with his congratulations. He was beaming as if something incredibly joyous had happened.

"At least I didn’t let you down."

Facing Kori Willow, Wyatt Barnes displayed a friendly smile, "Go collect your contribution points... You earned quite a bit!"

"It’s all thanks to Brother Wyatt."

Kori Willow laughed.

He was not only happy because he earned more than twenty thousand contribution points, but also because those who doubted him earlier were now looking at him with envy and jealousy.

Previously, he bet three thousand five hundred contribution points on Wyatt Barnes and was doubted by many, with some even speaking rather harshly.

And now, those people fell silent as Wyatt Barnes killed Wade Yorke.

For a moment, he felt triumphant!

"Wyatt Barnes!"

At the same time, Asaiah Nigel, the Life and Death Hall manager who had just received the crystal card from a copper flame elder, raised his hand and handed the crystal card to Wyatt Barnes, "Here are one million contribution points, the prize from your bet today."

"Thank you, Elder Asaiah Nigel."

Wyatt Barnes expressed his gratitude while accepting the crystal card.

After taking the crystal card, his gaze fell upon it. With the infusion of Holy Power, the crystal card revealed its balance:

One million contribution points!

For Wyatt Barnes, who had just entered the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect, one million contribution points were undoubtedly a massive fortune.

"One million contribution points! Wyatt Barnes has actually earned one million contribution points!"

As Wyatt Barnes received the crystal card, the gazes of many Holy Land disciples fell upon him.

Those eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.

"One million contribution points... those were originally our contribution points!"

Many Holy Land disciples felt their hearts bleeding as their contribution points now became someone else’s possession, leaving them both unhappy and helpless.

After all, the other party didn’t rob them of their contribution points but won them fair and square.

Initially, they had the chance to place bets on Wyatt Barnes.

But, because they didn’t believe in Wyatt Barnes at all, they missed the opportunity to earn a hefty sum of contribution points.

"It’s all Wade Yorke’s fault! It’s all Wade Yorke’s fault!"

Soon, most Holy Land disciples shifted their gaze to Wade Yorke’s corpse, cursing him vehemently.

In their view:

It was because Wade Yorke was killed that they lost so many contribution points.

"Brother Wyatt!"

Wyatt Barnes had just donned a brand-new Holy Land disciple’s robe, completely concealing his ’Nine-Clawed Dragon Warrior’ features when a voice reached him, causing him to lift his head immediately and look in the direction of the voice.

At a glance, Wyatt Barnes saw Kori Willow walking through the air from afar, arriving instantly before him.

"Brother Kori."

Wyatt Barnes greeted Kori Willow with a smile and cast a friendly nod towards Reuben Willow beside him.

"Thank you."

Now, Reuben Willow, facing Wyatt Barnes, had lost all his previous arrogance and proactively thanked Wyatt Barnes.

The reason for his gratitude was naturally because Wyatt Barnes had helped him earn a fortune!

The reason for Reuben Willow’s change was because of the strength Wyatt Barnes had displayed earlier.

Today, when he first arrived at the Life and Death Hall, even though his cousin had advised him to bet on Wyatt Barnes, he didn’t believe Wyatt Barnes could be a match for Wade Yorke.

However, the strength that Wyatt Barnes later exhibited completely shocked him.

Especially Wyatt Barnes’s final sword technique left him unable to catch a trace!

He naturally understood what that meant.

It meant that if Wyatt Barnes wanted to kill him, a ’Saint Immortal Second Transformation Martial Artist’, he would be defenseless!

He had no confidence in blocking the sword that slain Wade Yorke.

Therefore, facing Wyatt Barnes now, Reuben Willow’s attitude experienced a dramatic change.

"I bet ten thousand contribution points and earned sixty thousand contribution points..."

Reuben Willow then looked at Wyatt Barnes and said, "Give me your crystal card, and I’ll transfer thirty thousand contribution points to you as a ’thank-you gift’!"

As the saying goes, never hit a smiling face.

Moreover, Reuben Willow was Kori Willow’s cousin, so Wyatt Barnes returned with a polite smile, "Brother Reuben, that’s what you earned, there’s no need to give it to me... If you must be grateful, thank Brother Kori."

"I think if it weren’t for him, you wouldn’t have bet on me."

As Wyatt Barnes spoke, he appropriately looked at Kori Willow.

"Don’t worry. I’ll give half of the remaining thirty thousand contribution points to Brother Kori... My ’thank-you gift’ to you won’t affect that point."

Reuben Willow added.

Upon hearing Reuben Willow’s words, Wyatt Barnes’s impression of him improved, but he insisted on declining Reuben Willow’s kind gesture, "Brother Reuben, I’ve already earned one million contribution points today... those thirty thousand contribution points don’t mean much to me."

"Perhaps you could take thirty thousand of the sixty thousand contribution points you’ve earned and give the remaining thirty thousand to Brother Kori, how about that?"

In the end, Wyatt Barnes offered a suggestion to Reuben Willow.

Seeing Wyatt Barnes so insistent, Reuben Willow finally had no choice but to comply.
