Chapter 197 Hundred Victory Arena
Liu Ye's face turned stiff when he heard that.
The royal rooms of Yuxing Tower cost 50,000 mid grade stones per night. Since there are four people here, it will cost 200,000 mid grades spirit stones per night for Liu Ye.
Not to mention, the Battle Tournament hasn't started yet. Therefore, Long Ming and his fellow sisters probably going to stay here for more than a week.
' Ended, My year's worth saving vanished. I can't even ask Father now as he already gave me too much last time.' Liu Ye felt his heart was bleeding, but his smile didn't diminish.
" Of course, Brother Long doesn't need to remind me that. After all, we are all brothers." Liu Ye smiled. But that smile was uglier than crying.
" Sister Yi, Please book for royal grade rooms for a week." Liu Ye looked at the receptionist and spoke.
" Very well, Young Master Liu." The receptionist woman was shocked when she saw Liu Ye acting like a licking dog before a handsome young man.
' To think there will be a day when Liu Ye suffering and paying money for others. Who is this young man?' The receptionist was naturally happy inwardly when she saw the evil Liu Ye was suffering.
" En?"
Long Ming was speechless when he felt a small thread of Fragrant Yin Qi comes from the receptionist to his body.
' Tsk, Tsk, Just look at this young master. Just by showing my face, I can harvest the Fragran Yin Qi.' Long Ming flicked his hair as he laughed in his heart.
" Beautiful Sister, I am Long Ming, the True Disciple of Four Seasons Valley. These are my fellow disciple sisters." Long Ming closed his paper fan as he greeted.
" Ahaha, I see, It's Young Master Long. I hope you enjoy your time in Yuxing Tower." The receptionist smiled and handed Long Ming four tokens.
" Each royal grade room is protected by powerful formations, and only this magical token can open your room."
" As long as you stay in the room, even a Nine Transformation of Soul Realm cultivator would have difficulties breaking it and entering."
" But I guess the runic formations can't stop a veteran Array Formation King, right?" Long Ming chuckled. The receptionist was startled as she smiled wryly.
" Young Master Long sure knows how to joke. A King grade Array Formation cultivator is much rarer than King grade Alchemist or Blacksmith. Unless Young Master truly offended some powerful figure…"
" Haha, Indeed. I am just joking. Beautiful Sister, No need to be serious."
Long Ming laughed as he waved his hands, making the receptionist sigh in relief.
But hearing the word 'beautiful sister', the receptionist blushed, sending another wave of Frgarnt Yin Qi to Long Ming.
" Well?"
Long Ming shook his head in amusement when he saw that. But suddenly, he winced in pain as he felt someone pinching his waist tightly.
" Brother Long, I guess we better be checking the rooms before checking this 'beautiful sister', right?" Mu Qinglian spoke with a smiling face. However, the cold aura around her made everyone chuckle.
" Senior Sister Mu is certainly right." Long Ming rubbed his waist as he sighed.
" I shall call a servant to show you your rooms." The receptionist returned her professional attitude.
When Long Ming opened the door, he was amazed by the interior.
" Interesting. For cultivators, cultivating one day here is the same as ten days outside. But spending such a hefty amount of spirit stones, it's only worth it." Long Ming looked at the True Qi Gathering Formation as he nodded.
Not to mention, he also saw a place for alchemy and blacksmithing. The formation was connected to the deep underground fire vein like Four Seasons Valley.
However, Long Ming felt that unless he adjusts the Refining Room according to his method, an average person could only refine rank three pills at maximum. The flames of fire vein won't be able to support a higher rank pill than that.
' But I have the Azure Flame Royal Body, so I don't need to worry about that." Long Ming shook his head.
After checking into the room, Everyone again gathered outside as Long Ming looked at Liu Ye.
" Brother Liu, Since it's my first time in Holy Qilin City, How about you take me and visit some popular places?" Long Ming smiled.
" Little Brother, I need to consolidate my cultivation. So, I won't be joining you." Meng Zhi shook her head.
" Yeah, I am also pondering about the teachings of sword dao you gave me yesterday. So, I am also going to cultivate." Ming Yuexin spoke.
Mu Qinglian felt it was a nice opportunity for her and Long Ming to hang out together. However, seeing Liu Ye with them, she can't bring herself to ask Long Ming for a private trip.
' We are already here. It won't be too late for us to be alone.' Mu Qinglian thought inwardly. " Well, I am also going to rest. So, I shall pass."
Long Ming was speechless when he heard that. Girls, where is your excitement?
Just because you guys probably visited Holy Qilin City doesn't mean everyone did.
" Very well, I guess I am going to travel with Brother Liu alone." Long Ming clicked his tongue as he looked at Liu Ye. " Brother Liu, let's go."
" Yes."
Liu Ye cursed in his heart when he heard that. ' Damn it, All the girls are staying. Shouldn't you also stay behind and take some rest? Why are you so energetic?'
" Brother Long, How about we go to the Hundred Victory Arena?" Liu Ye looked at Long Ming as he asked.
" What's that?" Long Ming became interested.
" It's a fighting arena. Many cultivators of the Holy Qilin Empire come here to compare their powers and techniques with each other." Liu Ye explained.
" If you win one hundred fights consecutively, You will gain the right to choose between three great rewards of the Hundred Victory Arena."
" Three great rewards?"
" First is the True Blood and Marrow Paste of a Rain Serpent of Ancient Lord Realm. Second is a Blessed Treasure of the Heavenly Emperor Heaven Light. The third one is a true Imperial Battle Technique, Nine Illumination Sword Art."
Long Ming was shocked when he heard the prices. " Well? I guess the Hundred Victory Arena is pretty generous, isn't it? But why haven't someone got the treasures already?"
" The last winner of Hundred Victory Pavilion appeared two hundred years ago." Liu Ye laughed. " Brother Long, Don't you think it's easy for someone to win one hundred victories consecutively."
" Not to mention, if you win too many matches, the Hundred Victory Pavilion would naturally make situations to make you lose."
" So, As usual?" Long Ming had long known about such tactics. However, seeing there are winners in the past means Hundred Victory Pavilion won't cheat too much.
It was like an ancient colosseum, with a big arena in the middle. Long Ming could hear the booming cheers and noises of thousands of people from inside.
" Normal entry fees, 500 mid grade spirits tones. Special seats, 2000 spirit stones, and top grade seats are 5000 spirit stones per person." Long Ming smacked his lips when he saw the price.
" I guess with such prices, the revenue of Hundred Victory Pavilion must be several millions of High grade spirit stones per year."
" Brother Long, the power behind the Hundred Victory Arena connected with the Rain Dragon Commerce and Central Province. Even the Imperial Family only collects hefty taxes and puts blind eyes on other things." Liu Ye spoke in a hushed voice as both of them entered the arena.
But of course, since Long Ming had a walking ATM like Liu Ye, he didn't bother to pay the entrance fees.
He could see the enter building divided into 5 parts. The most expensive and heated battle happened in the middle arena while the chapter and less exciting ones happened in the side ones.
" Hurry up! The bets are open! 3:1 odds this time! Can Silver Knife win against the powerful Angry Bull? Hurry up and bet!"
" This Angry Bull already won 10 battles already. However, The Silver Knife is a newcomer with a fast dagger technique." Liu Ye rubbed his palm as he and Long Ming got their top grade seats.
" I guess it will be better to bet on Angry Bull."
" Is killing is prohibited?" Long Ming looked at Liu Ye.
" In normal matches, yes." Liu Ye nodded. " However, the fighters can sign for life and death matches and no one can interfere. Not to mention, the identity of the fighters remains hidden, so…"
Long Ming couldn't help but appreciate the business mind of the creator of Hundred Victory Arena.
" Interesting, Let's look at the match."
In the arena, two people got up. One had a buff body and iron bracers around his fist, wearing a red angry bull mask. His nickname was Angry Bull.
Meanwhile, his opponent was a person wearing a faceless silver mask, with two crescent daggers swirling in his palms.
" Angry Bull and Silver Dagger! The fight begins NOW!"
