Chapter 1010: Knowing When to Stop

"Winning, winning!" Xia Tianqiong cheered up, and she gloated as she looked at that man.

That man hadn't expected the turnaround to be so fast. Although he felt a bit embarrassed, he still put on an act and said, "It's just a few Spirit Stones; this young master doesn't care!"

"How did you know the Black Iron Python would win?" Xia Tianqiong secretly sent a voice transmission to Ye Liuyun. She thought Ye Liuyun had tampered in secret.

Ye Liuyun sent her a voice transmission explaining: "That Azure Hawk originally had an injury on its left wing; though it looks imposing, it's actually bluffing, hoping to win quickly as soon as it steps onto the stage."

But the Black Iron Python had been cautious from the start, and its physical body was sturdy. So as long as it could withstand the first round of attacks, its chances of winning were great. Moreover, it had discovered the Azure Hawk's weak spot.

Xia Tianqiong thought it over and indeed it was as Ye Liuyun said. So she admired Ye Liuyun even more, looking at him with a face full of admiration.

Seeing Xia Tianqiong's adoring expression, that young master grew even angrier, secretly determined to outshine Ye Liuyun.

Soon, the servant delivered the Spirit Stones that Ye Liuyun and Xia Tianqiong had won, principal plus interest.

"It doubled!" Xia Tianqiong exclaimed happily.

"Just ten thousand Spirit Stones!" that young master began to sneer: "What's there to show off about? It's merely this young master's meal money!"

Ye Liuyun frowned upon hearing that. This guy is really annoying, is he bored out of his mind?

Even a clay figure has a bit of fire.

He fiercely directed his Golden Pupil at that man, releasing soul pressure through the Golden Pupil, which made the man tremble all over.

The nearby servant, seeing this, immediately reminded Ye Liuyun: "Sir, fighting is prohibited in the spectator seats!"

"You should make that trash shut his mouth first!"

Ye Liuyun did not withdraw the pressure.

Xia Tianqiong thought Ye Liuyun was about to cause trouble, she tugged his sleeve and used Divine Sense to send a voice transmission reminding him not to act rashly.

"This kid is clearly lower in realm than me, yet his soul power is so strong? Impossible, he must be using some treasure!"

At that moment, sweat beaded on the man's forehead, yet he didn't believe Ye Liuyun possessed such strength.

His realm is four levels higher than Ye Liuyun's, so how could he be inferior?

The servant indeed followed Ye Liuyun's instructions, reminding that man: "Young Master Cheng, you're a regular here and know the rules. If you keep provoking others, don't blame us for kicking you out!"

Young Master Cheng, at this moment so shocked he couldn't speak, could only blink his eyes.

"Sir, please also observe the rules!" the servant again advised Ye Liuyun.

Young Master Cheng's provocations were all seen by him. Seeing that Ye Liuyun only released a pressure warning without striking, he spoke to Ye Liuyun politely as well.

Ye Liuyun likewise immediately withdrew the pressure. He also didn't want to cause trouble here.

"Phew!" Young Master Cheng's body instantly relaxed as he exhaled.

He glared hatefully at Ye Liuyun, but dared not utter another harsh word.

"You're really handsome! You strike at the slightest disagreement!" Xia Tianqiong looked at Ye Liuyun admiringly.

Ye Liuyun shrugged his shoulders: "Finally, it's quiet now!"

"Shall we bet on the next match?" Xia Tianqiong had tasted success and found betting quite interesting.

"We'll see!" Ye Liuyun also needed to first see the competing ferocious beasts and assess them.

After he sees the ferocious beasts, if he feels confident, he will place a bet.

Xia Tianqiong naturally listened to Ye Liuyun.

The two of them are the same; they never put away the money they take out, continually rolling over their bets.

But each time he bets, Young Master Cheng always bets against him, and each time it's a hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones.

However, Ye Liuyun and Xia Tianqiong have won five times in a row, and the betting pool has grown to three hundred twenty thousand. Young Master Cheng, on the other hand, has lost five hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones in a row.

The people around were looking at Young Master Cheng, snickering and pointing at him.

He too held his breath, refusing to believe Ye Liuyun could guess every round correctly.

Actually, Ye Liuyun doesn't bet every round; he only bets when he feels confident.

As for matches between ferocious beasts of comparable strength, he won't bet.

"Wow, if I'd known you were this good, I would have bet more!" Xia Tianqiong looked at the Spirit Stones she had won, regretting she had bet too little.

Ye Liuyun, however, set aside twenty thousand top-grade Spirit Stones, and also had Xia Tianqiong set aside twenty thousand top-grade Spirit Stones.

"This is our principal and ticket money. The rest can be freely bet!" Ye Liuyun told Xia Tianqiong.

Upon hearing that, Xia Tianqiong set aside another twenty thousand top-grade Spirit Stones. "Then I'll keep a bit more; later I'll treat you to a meal when we go out!"

Ye Liuyun was also amused by Xia Tianqiong's action.

"Haha! Great, later when we go out to eat, you'll treat!"

He actually found Xia Tianqiong interesting, wanting to eat together, and ended up using this method!

Xia Tianqiong also blushed, her face still carrying a hint of pride.

Next, Ye Liuyun took Xia Tianqiong and placed bets another five times; the Spirit Stones Ye Liuyun won had already reached nine million six hundred thousand. Xia Tianqiong also earned just under nine million.

"Really uncanny!"

"Betting so accurately, yet there are still idiots opposing him! Do they have too much money and nowhere to spend it?"

The surrounding people were all shocked, chattering, and wanted to follow Ye Liuyun's bets.

Even for the wealthy, nine or ten million Spirit Stones is no small sum—who wouldn't be tempted?

Meanwhile, Young Master Cheng over there had already lost one million, and was being mocked; his face had turned livid from anger.

Today he not only lost face, but also lost money, and could no longer stay.

"Hmph!"

He snorted coldly, stood up, flicked his sleeves, and directly left the Beast Fighting Arena.

Ye Liuyun sensed his killing intent and guessed he wouldn't let it rest.

He secretly chuckled, estimating that someone would soon come to deliver resources to him!

Xia Tianqiong saw the smile at his corner of his mouth and also guessed his intention: "Don't you want to look into that guy's background first?"

I don't care who he is! Anyone who dares to strike at me is as good as dead! Ye Liuyun said nonchalantly.

Alright! I know you're capable!

Xia Tianqiong also smiled, knowing Ye Liuyun's abilities, and didn't worry for him. Instead, she started worrying about the bet.

Still betting? If we win another round, we'll be close to twenty million!

The attendants behind them all grew nervous upon hearing that.

Now a crowd of people behind them all want to follow Ye Liuyun's bets—this isn't just about the two of them winning twenty million!

If things go badly, the casino's manager will blame him.

Ye Liuyun, however, smiled and put all the remaining spirit stones back into his storage ring.

Thanks for your hard work!

Saying that, he took out twenty thousand spirit stones and handed them to the attendant beside him.

Then he said to Xia Tianqiong, "Let's stop betting; we'll quit while we're ahead."
