Chapter 580

【Stream Village Xiao Rui】93x

Truly worthy of the predicted finals.

The odds have already shot through the roof.

Even Yuan Zhao and Jiang Die, who have the loudest cheers, only have 3x odds.

It's just that these odds are only valid for now.

With every round, the odds will drop.

After all, the variables are greatest right now.

Although Yuan Zhao is strong, there's still a chance of an upset.

Zhao Chi's odds are 88x.

In other words, if you invest 2 gold coins now, once Zhao Chi wins, you'll get an extra 176 gold coins, and your original 2 gold coins will be returned as well.

Of course, if he doesn't win, then those 2 gold coins are definitely gone.

However, Zhao Chi didn't hesitate at all.

This time, he had come for the championship in the first place.

The odds were high anyway, so he might as well place a bet.

Right now, he only had 23 gold coins on him in total.

Then he'd bet it all on himself.

【Sorry, the maximum bet amount is 20 gold coins】

There's a limit?

Then 20 gold coins it is.

【You are placing a finals bet. Bet target: "Stream Village Zhao Chi 88x", bet amount: 20 gold coins. When the target wins the championship, you will receive 1760 gold coins. Confirm?】

Nothing to hesitate about.

Confirm!

【Bet placed successfully】

After exiting the system, he found that he was the last one to finish.

The three of them were all waiting for him.

"Sorry, it was my first time betting and I wasn't familiar with it, so I wasted some time."

Zhao Huai shook his head: "No worries. Who did you bet on? Yuan Zhao?"

Zhao Chi smiled: "You know Yuan Zhao too?"

Zhao Huai was stunned: "Huh? Of course I know him. He's the celebrity of your cohort, the whole academy should know, right? After getting second place at the start of the semester, a lot of people were surprised, they all came to me to confirm the news about you."

"There's such a thing?"

Zhao Huai and Zhao Jiao were also at Lord Eighth Academy.

Both of them were one cohort above Zhao Chi, so they were also his seniors — one senior brother, one senior sister.

Zhao Huai said: "That stuff isn't important, but today I reckon the champion is pretty much him. But that one called Jiang Die is from the Jiang family, her strength should indeed be very strong too. So I bet 1 gold coin on each of them."

Zhao Jiao said: "You're the rich one. I only bet 50 silver coins."

Lu Hong said: "Hehe, so you guys bet the same way too? I also bet on both sides, put 10 silver coins on each of them. No matter who's champion, I'll make something."

Zhao Chi scratched his head: "Me too."

Zhao Huai said: "I bet on you for the first two rounds. I figured you should be fine."

Lu Hong also laughed: "Me too, and I bet on you for three rounds. I think you'll definitely make the top 16."

Zhao Chi smiled: "Thanks for your trust. I'll fight well."

Zhao Jiao said: "Alright, let's go inside, go sign in, and have those two draw lots to match opponents while we're at it."

The four of them stopped joking and followed the crowd through the back door.

It was only a few dozen meters, yet Zhao Chi spotted 4 betting stations.

Looks like this industry is quite developed.

Entering the virtual training hall, there were even more people here than outside.

It really was like watching a concert or a football match, packed shoulder to shoulder.

But most of them walked straight into a few corridors.

The number of people registering wasn't that many.

Zhao Huai pointed at the service counter.

"Today you two will have to go register yourselves. Just say you're here for the competition sign-in and need an opponent match."

"Okay, thanks, Brother Huai." Lu Hong expressed his thanks.

"Thanks." Zhao Chi also waved.

The two waited in line for a while, and it was their turn.

"Are you here for the competition?"

Before Zhao Chi could speak, the staff member asked proactively.

"Yes." Zhao Chi nodded.

"Open your system, I'll connect you for the opponent match."

Zhao Chi connected his system.

The staff member said slowly: "... Stream Village Zhao Chi, matching... Number 39! Your match will begin at 9:30. Don't be absent then, or you'll be judged as forfeiting. The match lasts only 30 minutes. Once time is up, the winner will be decided by score."

"Okay, thanks."

"No need to thank me. You only need to sign in and match for the first time; after that it'll all be automatic. Check your system notifications for the details, don't miss them."

"I understand. Thank you."

"You're welcome. Next!"

At the same time, he received the message.

【Match Result】

【Number】 39

【Time】 9:30

【Duration】 30 minutes

【Arena】 Arena 3

【Opponent】 Xiao Rui of Xili Village

Xiao Rui?

Fighting him in the first match?

Isn't this a coincidence?

To be honest, although he didn't know Xiao Rui's background, he probably wasn't weak.

After all, with the Xiao family's support, he should be much stronger than ordinary people.

Similar to Cao Feng's positioning.

Lu Hong asked, "Zhao Chi, which match are you in?"

"9:30, Arena 3. You?"

Lu Hong said, "I'm earlier than you. I'm in Arena 4, starting at 9. My opponent is Liu Neng, whose odds were pretty good just now. Looking at his odds gives me confidence. Too bad I didn't bet on myself just now."

Zhao Chi smiled and said, "Good luck."

Zhao Huai also walked over and asked about their situations.

Zhao Jiao said, "Don't talk about it here. There are too many people. Let's go inside and talk."

Zhao Huai agreed, "Alright, let's go inside."

Still through a corridor.

Not long, just over ten meters.

But as they walked, the noise behind them faded away, and instead, sounds came from ahead.

The competition arena they entered this time was still that enormous virtual arena.

One couldn't see the edge at a glance.

All kinds of terrain were present.

Zhao Chi saw quite a few people nearby.

The number should reach over a thousand.
