Chapter 680: Bloody Martial Combat

What, you still have two shares?

Upon hearing that, the shopkeeper couldn't help but be a little startled, then quickly composed himself.

Then he calmly said: "If we suddenly put out such a large amount, it will definitely affect the price. So the other two shares must have their price reduced accordingly!"

"Haha!" Du Yan laughed: "I certainly understand that! But who said you have to sell them all at once?"

Du Yan immediately gave him advice: "First sell two shares to stir up competition. Naturally there will be people who can't buy, sparking their interest. Then you say you'll go elsewhere to get more stock, and after a while sell the other two shares. I guarantee the price won't be affected."

Then he again spoke solemnly: "Originally, I planned to sell these two shares at another Yi Cheng. I mentioned it to you because I see you value loyalty."

No problem, if you can't handle it, I won't force you. Just travel a bit more. Besides, we're always traveling around anyway.

Du Yan is absolutely a seasoned veteran of voyages; the shopkeeper could tell after just a few words.

He even guessed that these Honored Rank bloods were what Du Yan had obtained from elsewhere. As for the hunting squad reported earlier by the steward, the shopkeeper simply didn't believe it.

What kind of hunting squad could kill a single Honored Rank ferocious beast out of a herd?

However, facing Du Yan this veteran, he really had a headache. One thing he was quite certain of: once Du Yan left, he would definitely not return.

This stuff can be sold just as well in another Yi Cheng.

The key is Du Yan's advice is good. He can buy it first, then sell it in batches.

Thus, he ultimately bought the other two shares at the same price as well.

Ye Liuyun seeing this practically wanted to bow down and worship Du Yan the old drunk.

"This guy, full of nonsense, actually sold this blood at double the price."

If Ye Liuyun had to spout that much nonsense, he felt he couldn't even make it up.

After they walked out of the VIP room, Ye Liuyun appeared somewhat excited, but Du Yan remained calm as ever.

He accompanied Ye Liuyun to meet up with Wu Qingcheng and the others, then led them out of the Chamber of Commerce, found a well-known restaurant, and went in to eat.

Only after they sat down in the private room did Du Yan and Ye Liuyun start laughing uproariously.

"How much money did you make? You're this happy!" Wu Qingcheng asked, puzzled.

When they first met, Wu Qingcheng asked. But Ye Liuyun and Du Yan didn't tell her, only saying they'd talk later.

Now seeing them both so happy, she also guessed they must have gotten a good price.

"Today we ought to have a good meal to reward Du Yan!" Ye Liuyun laughed.

Then he told Wu Qingcheng: "That blood sold for double our estimate! This is all thanks to Du Yan!"

"Ah?"

Hearing Ye Liuyun say double the price, the others were also shocked!

Everyone looked at Du Yan, waiting for his confirmation.

He pretended to be deep in thought and nodded, causing everyone to be surprised again, opening their mouths wide.

"Just some little tricks, what's there to make a fuss about!"

Du Yan, however, began to feign humility.

But after a moment, he couldn't hold back either, laughing as he recounted his deceitful exploits, and everyone listened, full of admiration.

When the food and drinks arrived, Ye Liuyun and the others frequently raised their glasses to toast him.

Once Du Yan was happy, he began to tell everyone about his years of experience in deceiving others, letting these people gain much insight.

They ate this meal while talking and laughing for a long time; even Lei Ming and Long Nv, etc., couldn't eat anymore before leaving the restaurant.

After coming out, they headed straight for the Martial Arena.

The design of the Martial Arena is also relatively simple, with tiered seating in a ring around the outside and a fighting platform in the middle.

Anyone wishing to enter the Martial Arena must also pay ten top-grade Spirit Stones.

Ye Liuyun paid the Spirit Stones, led everyone to a relatively open spot, and sat down.

He planned to watch a few matches first to understand the situation before deciding.

Their group numbered quite a few, and as soon as they entered they already attracted considerable attention.

Moreover, they were all unfamiliar faces, and with many beautiful women among them, for a while many male Martial Cultivators forgot to watch the fights, turning aside to stare at the beautiful women.

Wu Qingcheng and the others attracted attention wherever they went, so they had already developed the habit of looking straight ahead, not glancing sideways, and basically ignoring others' gazes.

Once they sat down, they began to watch the spectacle attentively.

On the field, two Martial Cultivators at Yin Yang Yi Chong were fighting.

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil could see clearly that these two had already expended over half of their True Essence, yet they refused to yield. Their strikes were swift, precise, and ruthless, each hoping to kill the opponent with a single blow.

Not long after Ye Liuyun and the others sat down, one Martial Cultivator's True Essence was exhausted, and just as he was about to concede, his opponent seized the chance and punched him to pieces.

Anyone could see that the Martial Cultivator who wanted to concede no longer had the strength to continue fighting.

Ye Liuyun and the others also didn't expect the opponent to be so ruthless as to directly kill him.

Su Miaoyin and the other women all gasped in shock.

The surrounding spectators, stimulated by this bloody scene, burst into cheers.

"Great job, Lin Sen, win one more round and you'll have ten straight wins!"

"Lin Sen, I've bet on you for ten straight wins, you better not chicken out!"

Near Ye Liuyun and the others, many people loudly shouted at the victorious Martial Cultivator.

Lin Sen in the arena had already wanted to withdraw. After all, his True Essence was exhausted, and even an hour of recovery might not restore much.

But seeing him try to leave the fighting arena, the surrounding spectators again began to curse loudly, causing an uproar.

Lin Sen's face couldn't hold up, so he had to return to the preparation area, restore his True Essence, and wait for the next fight.

Ye Liuyun observed his True Essence recovery speed for a while and also shook his head helplessly.

"Lin Sen, even after an hour, can't recover even half of his True Essence; the next battle will be dangerous for him."

Du Yan knew Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil had the ability to see through things; hearing Ye Liuyun say that, he ran straight to the betting area, placed ten top-grade Spirit Stones, and bet on Lin Sen losing.

At that moment, there were again two Martial Cultivators on the field, having prepared to go into battle. One was a big‑headed person, looking extremely formidable. One was a short person, appearing very agile. Both were at the Yin‑Yang Second Layer realm.

Before they fought, the Martial Arts Arena would always leave time for the audience to place bets.
