As if this was the end of the world, Mo Gu felt a throbbing sensation under his feet. An unbearable pain immediately struck out like lightning, his face instantly turning pale.

"You..." Mo Gu fell to the floor with gritted teeth. His finger pointed at Long Fei as he stared with eyes of hatred.

"Yes my... Brother Mo, are you okay?" Long Fei crouched down while putting on a worried expression, but at the same time, the smile on his lips could not be hidden. It had caused a deep trauma for Mo Gu.

Everyone on the scene was even more shocked. They all gasped with their mouths wide open, there was a series of 'ugh!' sounds!' among the men who simultaneously held onto their cells*, it was as if the pain Mo Gu was experiencing was also contagious. Even the women could not help but shut their mouths with terrified expressions.

"It must have hurt."

"Yes, it's very, very sick."

"I wonder if his little junior is okay? Sighs... Poor guy."

The crowd sighed, various public sympathies were leveled at Mo Gu.

.....

"Lo-Long Fei! You baj*ngan despicable! How could you use such a cheating technique?!" Mo Gu got up with great difficulty, yet his legs were still continuously trembling nonstop. The overwhelming sensation of tingling is still clearly felt beneath the cell.

"What do you mean cheating? Big brother Mo, the technique I used is really fair and precise. Although big brother's cultivation base isn't bad at all, the attacks you unleash can injure this junior to a great extent. So this junior can only retaliate as a form of self-defense." Long Fei said while putting on a plain face.

That makes sense!

Everyone agreed with Long Fei's logic. After all, Mo Gu who attacked first, there was no harm in fighting because it was just self-defense.

Even if Long Fei used such a dirty, inhumane trick and was even so despicable as a cultivator, he could not be blamed for this.

But of course, Long Fei would not admit that his technique was cheating, 'Although 'Flying Dragon Kick' was a slightly dubious skill, under Lao Tzu... It will be right and fair.'

"You... You...!" Mo Gu was furious after hearing this.

He originally came here for the selection of apprentices at the Zongjin Pavilion. It was at that moment that he met Long Fei. Not only did he fail to humiliate his target, he was now the one who was humiliated.

How could he withstand all this hatred?

Must end! It must end now!

Mo Gu swore to heaven if he did not kill Long Fei after all this was done, he would stop being human!

"Sister Mo, are you okay?" Qiao Ying hurriedly propped up Mo Gu anxiously.

"You scum! Why are you being so cruel?" He directed his gaze towards Long Fei and angrily shouted.

"Ti-it's okay sister, thank you." Mo Gu gasped for breath as he replied.

Long Fei paid no heed to Qiao Ying as he said, "So big brother Mo, is there anything else you want to say? I'm in a hurry. Or maybe, you want to feel my Dragon Awakened once again?" Long Fei asked with a faint smile.

At this moment, Mo Gu who was still extremely arrogant after hearing that sentence was instantly stunned. His expression slightly changed when he felt his crotch turn cold.

"I-I warned you! Don't fool too many people!"

"Haha, I now want to deceive more people! All right well, you can ask for any game, I'll follow it with pleasure." Long Fei Sahut.

"Humph! In that case, do you dare to compete alchemy with me? The loser will do whatever the winner says. How's it?" Mo Gu grinned happily after hearing Long Fei's words, 'God bless me!' Mo Gu was grateful in his heart.

"They're going to fight!" The crowd took a deep breath, they became even more excited than before.

"Hey why shut up? Are you scared? If it's afraid, why not just give up and kneel down to this young master?" Mo Gu provoked him with a mocking tone.

"Then bebit—"

"Wait a minute!"

Mo Gu had not finished speaking when Long Fei suddenly cut in.

"Place bets! Anyone who wants to support one of us will get a part of the advantage if one of us both wins the game. Come on, come on, a rare opportunity not to be missed! You will not find a spectacle like this anywhere except when there is a certain event! Payment is only valid for 10 low-tier Spirit Crystals, we do not accept cash! Wait what else? Don't hesitate brothers and sisters, I guarantee that this spectacle will be very interesting."

Swiss swiss swiss...

The ten large sheets of paper he bought from the system spread out among the crowd, in which it was written "Mo Gu", "Long Fei" on his left and right sides.

"Hmmm this is interesting! I'll bet on Mo Gu for 1,000 low-tier Spirit Crystals!" One of the unknown people advanced forward and placed his spatial ring onto Mo Gu's table.

"Me too! I will bet 10,000 low-tier Spirit Crystals for Mo Gu!" The other person suddenly became interested and his voice shocked the audience.

Isn't that too wasteful just for a bet?

"Humph! A group of poor people! I, Ling Tian from Qingyun Sword Peak bet 100,000 low-level Spirit Crystals on brother Mo!"

'F! F*ck! F*ck! I'm going to die!' Long Fei was overwhelmed after hearing that number.

This... This is more than expected!

He was originally just a fad about making that plan, but it might be a little difficult. The goal was to attract the attention of the public, who knew anyone would be willing to spend a little money to cover the 200 Spirit Crystals that had been lost before.

But now that the amount was at stake, Long Fei realized that 200 losses were just a speck of dirt on top of a lump of gold!

"Haha, is that all that brother Ling has? I, Mei Xieran of the Sovereign River Cicada bet with 10,000 medium-level Spirit Crystals for Brother Long!" A soft and gentle voice yet filled with blades echoed.

A woman with peerless beauty suddenly appeared. His expression showed contempt for Ling Tian.

'Haha! I'm rich! I'm rich!' Meanwhile, in Long Fei's mind going crazy, his heartbeat could not stop beating so quickly accompanied by a gasping breath, he seemed to be almost out of breath.

Do not stop there, the bet still continues well.

"10,000 low-level Spirit Crystals!"

"100 intermediate-tier Spirit Crystals!"

"50,000 low-level Spirit Crystals!"

.....

The battles became more intense, and innumerable space rings piled up like mountains. Each of their chosen names had a frightening amount.

Mo Gu earned a bet of 500,000 low-level Spirit Crystals and 12,000 medium-level Spirit Crystals.

While Long Fei obtained 300,000 low-level Spirit Crystals and 10,000 medium-level Spirit Crystals.

This was a huge sum for academy disciples like them, especially Long Fei. He had never dreamed of obtaining this amount through such an easy means, not to mention that the amount had already surpassed the salary of an outer circle disciple from the top list.

How could he possibly calm down after all this?

.....

"Don't fool too many people!"

This is an old Chinese idiom that refers to one's behavior in order not to act beyond one's own limits, or to act in such a way that would harm one's side.
