Urban Dominating Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1117 - 1110: Death Battle Platform

Early the next morning.

Sunlight spilled down from the horizon, illuminating the entirety of Celestial Cyan City.

At the center of Celestial Cyan City, a massive blue stone plaza had already gathered thousands of figures, and the number continued to grow.

This plaza was circular, surrounded by stands, and at the center was a huge stone platform constructed from hard ore.

This was the famous Death Battle Platform of Celestial Cyan City!

Within Celestial Cyan City, fights between cultivators were forbidden; otherwise, they would be captured by the gold-armored guards of the Marquis's Mansion. The majority of cultivators entering Celestial Cyan City did not dare provoke the Marquis's Mansion.

If there were grievances between cultivators, they could fight on the Death Battle Platform.

Once on the platform, life and death were no longer considered, and the battle continued until one party fell off the platform or was killed.

Yesterday, one of the three major families in Celestial Cyan City, the Yuan Family, had gone to the Bai Family to propose marriage. Soon after, it was reported that Yuan Ming, the Yuan family's eldest son, was to duel a young man sent by the Bai Family on the Death Battle Platform.

If Young Master Yuan Ming won, he would marry Miss Bai Shuang. If the young man won, the Yuan and Bai families would cease hostilities for a few years.

However, as the news spread, it evolved to say that the victor would marry Bai Shuang, one of Celestial Cyan City's three great beauties.

Yuan Ming was the strongest among the young cultivators of Celestial Cyan City, while Bai Shuang, as one of the three great beauties, was also immensely famous, coupled with a mysterious youth.

These combined conditions caused an explosive reaction in Celestial Cyan City.

Therefore, even before the hour of the Dragon, the stands around the Death Battle Platform were already crowded with thousands of cultivators. Who wouldn't want to witness the prowess of the strongest of the younger generation in Celestial Cyan City? After all, the Yuan family's eldest son had once calmly escaped from the hands of an Immortal Venerable ranked figure on the wanted list of the Royal Capital.

Moreover, these cultivators wanted to see the identity of the youth daring enough to challenge Yuan Ming.

Outside the Death Battle Platform, the betting was already open, and Yuan Ming's odds of winning were as high as ninety percent.

As the hour of the Dragon approached, the stands were almost full, and such a level of excitement was indeed intense.

Apart from the many cultivators in Celestial Cyan City, there were several spacious stands among them with people already seated.

This duel, aside from the direct participants from the Yuan and Bai families, also had attendees from the Marquis's Mansion of Celestial Cyan City and another of the three major families, the Tao Family.

The three stands were occupied by people from the Marquis's Mansion, Tao Family, and Yuan Family, as this battle concerned the future direction of Celestial Cyan City.

"The people from the Bai Family should be coming as well."

"I wonder what kind of person is going to fight Yuan Ming, daring enough to challenge him."

"Yes, even the older generation's experts aren't a match for Yuan Ming."

"I've wagered two thousand spirit stones on Yuan Ming. It's almost half my fortune; I hope Young Master Yuan doesn't let me down."

"I also placed three thousand spirit stones on Young Master Yuan."

"I bet one hundred spirit stones on that mysterious youth. If he's bold enough to accept the challenge, he must have some skill. What if he wins?"

"..."

Even before the duel began, the stands were already filled with numerous discussions, and many eyes kept glancing towards the Yuan Family's stand.

The eldest son of the Yuan Family, Yuan Ming, was sitting on a chair, wearing a fiery red robe, his eyes slightly closed, with a calm expression. His handsome side profile had mesmerized many female cultivators present.

At this moment, outside the battle arena.

The entire Bai Family, with Qin Yang, Bai Qingtian, Fatty Bai, Bai Shuang, and others, had already reached the entrance of the Death Battle Arena.

Outside the Death Battle Arena, in front of the imposing city walls, a huge betting board had already been set up.

Qin Yang stood at the entrance of the Death Battle Arena, looking up at the massive betting board.

On the board were two spiritual power beams; one longer than the other by nine times.

Beside one of the beams was "Young Master Yuan Ming," while the other displayed the words "Mysterious Youth Qin Yang," indicating that the Death Battle Arena had already obtained Qin Yang's name.

"Brother Qin, a betting pool is set up in the Death Battle Arena before every fight, with a minimum bet of a hundred lower grade spirit stones and a maximum bet of a hundred thousand lower grade spirit stones."

Beside Qin Yang, Fatty Bai explained.

"Haha, it seems not too few people are betting on Young Master Yuan to win."

Qin Yang smiled lightly as he glanced at the betting board, where nearly ninety percent of the bets were on Yuan Ming to win, with only ten percent on the mysterious youth Qin Yang.

However, this also indirectly reflected Yuan Ming's significant reputation in Celestial Cyan City.

Those betting on Yuan Ming to win would receive double their spirit stones back, whereas a win by the mysterious youth Qin Yang would yield five times the spirit stones. If both were defeated, the bookmaker would win it all.

"Let's go, I'll place some bets too."

Saying this, Qin Yang walked to the betting area, with the entire Bai Family following alongside him.

"Fellow cultivator, may I ask, who would you like to bet on to win? How much would you like to wager?"

A maid in a red dress looked at Qin Yang and asked.

"Ah, bet on the mysterious youth Qin Yang to win."

Qin Yang smiled slightly, looking at the mysterious youth beam, then tossed out a storage bag.

The maid in the red dress took Qin Yang's storage bag, scanned it with her divine sense, and immediately showed a trace of astonishment in her eyes.

"Ten thousand?! Fellow cultivator, are you really betting a hundred thousand lower grade spirit stones on that mysterious youth?" The red skirt maid asked in surprise.

"Yes."

Qin Yang nodded with a smile.

"Okay, please register your name."

The maid in the red dress handed two Spirit Jade Tokens to Qin Yang, one was a Death Battle Arena voucher, and the other was a bettor's credential.

Qin Yang nodded, and with spiritual power flowing from his fingers, swiftly signed his name on both Spirit Jade Tokens.

"Qin Yang?!"

The red skirt maid looked at the name appearing on the Spirit Jade Token and was instantly taken aback, then glanced at the group from the Bai Family behind Qin Yang.

"You, are you that mysterious youth... Qin Yang?"

The red skirt maid's face momentarily froze.

"Hmm, is it not permissible to bet on myself to win?"

Qin Yang smiled slightly and asked.

"Yes, of course, please keep them safe."

The red skirt maid slowly withdrew the shock on her face and exchanged one of the tokens with Qin Yang.

In past life-and-death duels on the Death Battle Platform, not a few cultivators have wagered their entire fortune on themselves before the match started. If they won, they'd make a huge profit; if they lost, they might have already perished, so this practice wasn't rare among cultivators.

"Brother Bai, let's go."

Qin Yang secured the Spirit Jade Tokens and glanced at Fatty Bai.

"Hehe, wait, Brother Qin, I want to bet too. I bet two thousand spirit stones on Brother Qin."

Fatty Bai grinned and then looked at the red skirt maid, directly tossing her a storage bag.

Upon seeing this, the red skirt maid nodded and handed two Spirit Jade Tokens to Fatty Bai as well. After registering his name, Fatty Bai took one of the Spirit Jade Tokens.

"Haha, Brother Qin, this is all I've got, but it will all be worth it soon."

Fatty Bai grinned; others didn't know Brother Qin's prowess, but he had witnessed Brother Qin slay an Immortal Venerable rank expert. Though Zhuo Bufan and the Wind Thunder Wolf King fought hard and were heavily injured, they were far from average. While Yuan Ming was formidable, he probably wouldn't be Brother Qin's match!

"Sister Bai Shuang, father, aren't you going to bet?"

Fatty Bai glanced at Bai Shuang.

Upon hearing this, Bai Shuang's cool and attractive face paused slightly. To be honest, she had never participated in betting in her life; it felt like gambling.

"Alright, I'll place a bet as well."

Bai Shuang nodded. Although it wasn't in her character, Qin Yang was fighting for her. Betting was also a way to boost Qin Yang's confidence. Bai Shuang took out her storage bag and placed a bet of thirty thousand spirit stones, almost all her fortune.

"I also believe that young friend Qin Yang will definitely emerge victorious. Our Bai Family bets a hundred thousand spirit stones."

Bai Qingtian said solemnly.

After completing their bets, Qin Yang and Bai Qingtian, along with the entire Bai Family, entered the Death Battle Arena.

"The people from the Bai Family have entered; the betting is closing."

"That person just now is the one about to duel Yuan Ming, Qin Yang. He looks even younger than Yuan Ming."

"Yes, he and the Bai Family placed massive bets of spirit stones in such confidence; I'll bet a little as well, five hundred spirit stones, given that he offers a fivefold return."

"..."

As Qin Yang and the Bai Family proceeded toward the arena, several dozen cultivators who had yet to enter scrambled to place their bets before making their way into the Death Battle Arena as well.
