his clan being thrown through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shouted and rushed to Zhao Dengtian’s side like a gale of wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cough…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>cough…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Dengtian twitched slightly on the ground, and his face was ashen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked like he was trying to get up, but he kept failing to do so no matter how many times he tried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan shot a cold glare at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan activated the Arch of Heaven, forcibly suppressing his Vital Qi that was on the verge of going berserk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder checked Zhao Dengtian’s injuries, breathing a sigh of relief when he found that the young man wasn’t in any mortal danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder then took out some medicine and made Zhao Dengtian take a dose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder then turned around and glared threateningly at Jing Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a menacing step toward the younger man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You b*stard!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You dared to harm the young master!” “That’s enough!” a cold voice cut in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager of the Extreme Combat Association walked briskly toward them and shot the elder an icy glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder halted his steps immediately after hearing Ran Qi’s voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mouth was twisted in a snarl of frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath before slowly regaining his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just take Zhao Dengtian back for treatment.” Ran Qi’s voice sounded rather cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Zhao Dengtian had just done violated the rules of the Extreme Combat Association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Zhao Dengtian hadn’t already been injured, there was no way that Ran Qi would have just let it slide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one was ever allowed to provoke an association contestant like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Dengtian notwithstanding, even the Patriarch of the Zhao Clan—Zhao Dengtian’s father—behaved himself well when he was in the association’s vicinity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder picked up Zhao Dengtian and left without saying anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My stones…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>my Spiritual Stones…” Zhao Dengtian mumbled softly as he was carried out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was in a daze, but he was clearly still thinking about the 20,000 Spiritual Stones that he had lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan only turned back to the manager once the elder had taken Zhao Dengtian away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan, please come with me,” Ran Qi said with a gentle voice, looking at Jing Yan again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the hall on the first floor, the rowdy crowd gradually calmed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had all been watching when Jing Yan sent Zhao Dengtian flying with a swing of his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no doubt in anyone’s mind that Zhao Dengtian was a true Seventh Heaven warrior, yet Jing Yan had still made short work of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no longer any need to doubt what Jing Yan was capable of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of the gamblers had suspected that Li Tianfu deliberately lost the fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those people were forced to change their minds when Zhao Dengtian’s limp form hit the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they still couldn’t fathom how Jing Yan had become so powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were unable to figure out just how Jing Yan, a Seventh Heaven warrior, had been able to defeat Li Tianfu, a terrifying adversary at the Ninth Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could have racked their brains all they wanted, and they still wouldn’t have been able to figure it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Congratulations, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan, for winning the battle,” Ran Qi said to him with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were in the same room where Ran Qi and the president had been sitting just moments ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the president had vanished before Jing Yan came in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It was a hard match, but well, I did still win.” Jing Yan shrugged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would have been hellish for him if he had lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The martial system you used left quite an impression, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve practiced Moon-Freezing Triple Waves as well, but the force that I can summon with it pales in comparison to what you did with it.” Ran Qi’s eyes were intent as she examined Jing Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was very puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she hadn’t heard the president comment that the martial system wielded by Jing Yan was none other than Moon-Freezing Triple Waves, she would have probably thought it to be some other Top-grade martial system that just happened to resemble Moon-Freezing Triple Waves somewhat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s hardly worth mentioning,” Jing Yan said as he waved dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew what Ran Qi was doing—she was fishing for information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was probably wondering why the power of Moon-Freezing Triple Waves had been formidable enough to be on par with, or even exceed, common Top-grade martial systems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then again, Jing Yan was under no obligation to let her know that he had modified the art before he used it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment, he wanted nothing more than to reap his reward, which he could use to purchase the Nine Yin Fruit that he needed for recuperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan knew just how dire his current situation was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he delayed any longer, he might end up unable to continue cultivating for a very, very long period of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ran Qi grinned and didn’t probe any further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The battle that you have participated in is over, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan, and you’re the winner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your odds were at one to 22, and you placed a bet of 5000 Spiritual Stones on yourself, meaning that you won 110,000 Spiritual Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would you like the stones in physical form, or would you prefer them in the form of a Spiritual Stone Gold Card?” Ran Qi continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hundred and ten thousand Spiritual Stones was not a small sum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pile would have been so huge that it would have required several crates to carry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Jing Yan were to take them in physical form, he would have had to hire a carriage to haul them all back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why Ran Qi asked if he wanted them in physical form or in the form of a gold card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gold card that Ran Qi mentioned was a card for storing Spiritual Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The card was usable in all of Lan Qu Province.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was something that could be used at any Extreme Combat Association or trade organization under the City Lord’s Office in all of Lan Qu Province.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll take the gold card,” Jing Yan said after a moment of thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hauling around that many Spiritual Stones in physical form would be ridiculously showy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gold card would be a far more convenient choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In that case, here are two gold cards, with all 110,000 Spiritual Stones in them.” Ran Qi took out two golden cards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cards had been crafted using some kind of golden crystal, and they shimmered beautifully in the light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan took the cards, and he needed only to probe using a bit of his Vital Qi to find out the amount contained within the cards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first card had 100,000 in it, and the other card held the remaining 10,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spiritual Stone Gold Cards came in fixed amounts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally speaking, they came in forms containing 10,000, 50,000, and 100,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a type that contained one million as well, but that type was very rarely seen anywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jing Yan was very excited as he held the two cards in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was worth noting that even when he made it to the Precelestial rank all those years ago, he had never had so many Spiritual Stones on his person before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hundred and ten thousand Spiritual Stones was not a small sum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any of the three major clans in Dong Lin City would have considered that to be an enormous amount of wealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A staff member came and presented 5200 Spiritual Stones in physical form to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five thousand of those were the bet that Jing Yan had originally placed, while the remaining 200 were the reward Jing Yan had been given for participating in the battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that many Spiritual Stones on his person, he would probably be able to purchase enough Nine Yin Fruits to neutralize the effects of the Soul Crystal’s power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll take my leave then, manager.” Jing Yan cupped his hands to Ran Qi and excused himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he had the Spiritual Stones with him, Jing Yan didn’t intend to hang around any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slung the package containing 5200 Spiritual Stones over his back and left the room right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>is this for real?” Zhong Yuxiu, a warrior of the association with a lithe figure and pretty face, felt rather dazed as she looked at the sack she held in her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It contained 1150 Spiritual Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Yuxiu had heeded Jing Yan’s advice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While betting was still open for his match with Li Tianfu, she had wagered every Spiritual Stone she had on Jing Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Jing Yan had won, she had reaped an astonishing reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her colleagues had laughed at her when Jing Yan and Li Tianfu began to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was now clear who had been the fool.\u003C\u002Fp>",1504,"2026-06-03T10:25:51.540Z",1,"novelbin.me","a98165541b45aa8fecaa4290a2727c769383c6737a269c852c1ad54b77bb9d40","the-sword-god-of-the-universe-chapter-50","the-sword-god-of-the-universe-chapter-48",2108,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sword-god-of-the-universe-cover.jpg"]
