The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast

Chapter 643 480: Huai Shoucheng's Duel Bet (Part 3)

It's happening! It's finally happening!

Everyone knows that now, just as Lin Guang has entered school and his foundation is still shallow, this might be the time when the gap in strength between Huai Shoucheng and Lin Guang is at its smallest.

The further in time, the fewer opportunities there will be.

If the other party truly wants to reclaim the stage, they would undoubtedly choose this moment, after all, he has nearly two years of development advantage over Lin Guang, with his own tier already at Four-Star, and his Spirit Beast has also broken through to Tier Four.

However, while his momentum is indeed extremely powerful at this moment, his Dao Marking far exceeds that of his peers, making him an undisputed prodigy, the opponent he faces is still Lin Guang.

The video of that stunning "Welcome Battle" at the opening ceremony has already gone viral on the school forum.

Unless someone has been in seclusion recently or on assignments in places where the Ether network doesn't reach, it's impossible not to know about it.

Can a suppression below Six-Star really overwhelm him?

"?"

Remyu was also stunned, as if a big question mark popped up above her cute head, she couldn't help but scratch it.

Is this even the same level that you challenge?

Huai Shoucheng ignored Remyu's doubts, coldly said: "I know what you're thinking."

"In normal circumstances, I admit I would be no match."

"So... a one-on-one, with no rules."

His entire body exuded a surging aura, eyes filled with suppressed rage, he said somberly: "Aside from the Body-Protecting Spiritual Artifact, I will use a combat-type Six-star Divine Object and a few other Spiritual Artifacts, and you can't use other external objects."

This statement spread out, causing an uproar around.

To be able to cooperate with a Six-star Divine Object, it must be at least a fine Tier Five, even a perfectly graded Spiritual Artifact, more likely Tier Six, and even then, there are no set numbers.

Truly performing well could indeed threaten an ordinary Six-star True Master going bare-equipped.

But damn it, what True Master isn't wealthy, who would be bare-equipped?

To limit Lin Guang from using anything?

"?!"

"Are you crazy? Who would fight you like this?"

"What do you mean..."

Another uproar erupted around.

"So, as compensation—"

Huai Shoucheng shouted in a low voice: "As long as you win, the Divine Objects and Spiritual Artifacts I brought up are yours, and you don't need to provide any other stakes."

"For you, winning brings reward, losing brings no punishment."

"How about it, do you dare to bet?"

The crowd's eyes reignited with excitement.

This is getting interesting now.

Just for a point of contention, without affecting life or future, and as long as he wins, the Divine Objects and Spiritual Artifacts are handed over?

We must understand, the number of Spiritual Artifacts a Spirit Master can carry is limited, it's not about having more.

And using a Six-star Divine Object as a Mid and Low-Star Spirit Master is like a child wielding a sledgehammer, even for a prodigy, it's extremely difficult to handle.

In other words, the more artifacts Huai Shoucheng brings, the bigger discrepancy Lin Guang's Domain might catch, and then he might be blissfully sent off.

But if he brings fewer, it may be like the previous Qing Cheng during the "Welcome Battle", who despite having something that could threaten Lin Guang, still couldn't find the opportunity.

At this moment, Lin Guang's gaze slightly wavered, while Vishdair's eyes had already shown a look of interest.

—Just a fight after all.

Nothing would be lost if they lose, winning would bring great rewards?

She turned her eyes and suddenly spoke: "If you bring some disposable trinkets on stage, or say, if the good stuff gets destroyed, we wouldn't benefit even if we win you, right?"

Huai Shoucheng seemed prepared: "An agreement can be signed, even if the Spiritual Artifact is damaged, as long as you can win against me, I will bring out another identical one."

A diamond-shaped crown flashed across Lin Guang's forehead, rapidly reading the information carried in the spiritual power in the air.

—Huai Shoucheng's reaction does indeed seem as those anonymous on the forums predicted.

Their analysis is quite logical.

Most prodigies are proud and ambitious.

Even if the challenge requires external help, at least they have the guts to challenge and to throw a punch.

Conversely, if today ended with him slipping away defeated, who knows how the forum's public opinion would turn.

These geniuses, those renowned alumni and seniors across the Great Xia Nine Provinces after graduation, even the True Masters, and giants will see his joke.

This is not just about his personal dignity, not as simple as the Huai Family's honor.

On a larger scale, it even extends to the conflicts between aristocratic families and civilians as one of the three pillars of Zhen Sheng City in Fenghai Province.

He can't retreat, nor does he want to.

And from Huai Shoucheng's emotions shown and caught by Lin Guang, this point can be indirectly verified.

Courage, determination, anger, the desire to challenge, the winning and losing mentality, a sense of shame, a hint of unease... and a part seemingly directed at someone else aside from Lin Guang but still mixed with resentment.

All this fits Lin Guang's imagined persona of Huai Shoucheng, but there were no hints of scheming or even a hint of foreboding intuition warning him.

Is this guy not planning any covert ambush?

Would he really be this open and straightforward?

But with so much good stuff being offered right to his mouth, naturally, it wouldn't make sense to let it go.

"I understand."

Lin Guang slightly curled his lips, calmly replied, "We accept your challenge."

"Time? Place?"

"Ten days later, Sky Arena."

Huai Shoucheng seemed to know he wouldn't refuse, took a deep look at Lin Guang.

"I'll draft the agreement and send it to you later."

The next moment, he clenched his fist and turned to leave.

Most of the onlookers wore expressions of excitement and satisfaction.

There will indeed be a spectacle to watch next.

"Another duel?"

"The fifth one since school started, right?"

"This time is different, the specifications are higher than before combined!"
