Chapter 245: Astonishing Grand Prize! Life-Changing!
At the second-rate force, True Martial Sect.
This year, thanks to the battle videos of the Heavenly Origin Saint Master, they had made a fortune selling recording stones.
Today, countless disciples of True Martial Sect were not cultivating.
Instead, they gathered in groups, excitedly discussing the ongoing lottery live broadcast.
New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.
The higher-ups of True Martial Sect did not interfere.
They were also watching.
The first lottery draw ceremony had captured everyone’s attention.
Everyone hoped to win a prize.
Outside True Martial Sect, Hua Yunfei and several senior brothers were gathered.
All were outer disciples with only the early stage of Qi Refining cultivation.
They were typical novices in the cultivation world.
At this moment, watching the live broadcast, they were shouting loudly.
“I haven’t won. Out of the five numbers, I only got two right. It feels like even the consolation prize is hard to get.”
“Brother Zhang, you have much better luck than me. I bought ten numbers, but those ten Mystic Turtles never came out of the pool. It nearly drove me crazy!”
“I don’t know who said online yesterday that the two Turtles piled together would definitely be hungry today and run fast. I bought these two numbers for all my five tickets, and ended up with a huge loss!”
“Brother Li, it’s a bit outrageous that none of these ten Mystic Turtles came out of the pool. Next time, just tell me the numbers you bought, and I’ll buy them in reverse. Maybe I’ll win!”
“Junior Brother Hua, why are you so quiet? What are you thinking?”
The excited group looked at Hua Yunfei with strange expressions.
Hua Yunfei quickly forced a smile and said, “I just feel the lottery is too unreliable. The Mystic Turtles even started fighting. Winning the lottery is too difficult.”
Hearing this, the senior brothers laughed, “The fun is in the excitement!”
“Spending two low-grade spirit stones for a chance to win tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones isn’t something you get every day.”
“Give it a shot, and you might become a Deity Transformation expert in a hundred years!”
“Junior Brother Hua, you didn’t buy a ticket, did you? To be indifferent about the lottery is truly admirable.”
Hua Yunfei didn’t explain.
He...
Had actually lied.
He thought the chances of winning were low, so he didn’t want to buy a ticket.
But at the last moment before the deadline, hearing his senior brothers’ discussions, he couldn’t resist buying a ticket at random.
He thought, what if he won?
Even if it was just a consolation prize, he could earn eight low-grade spirit stones.
But when the live broadcast started.
Hua Yunfei was shocked.
The number on the back of the first Mystic Turtle that reached the peak was on his random ticket!
And the second…
Third…
Fourth…
Fifth Mystic Turtles that reached the peak also had numbers that matched his ticket.
This left Hua Yunfei astonished.
If he got one more number…
Wouldn’t he then win a consolation prize?
Most importantly, if he had already matched the first five numbers.
What about the remaining five numbers?
Would they all be correct too?
But as soon as this thought arose, Hua Yunfei dismissed it.
It was simply impossible.
As a mere outer disciple with average talent, he couldn’t have such luck.
He only hoped to match one more number.
Earning eight more low-grade spirit stones would allow him to buy a few more pills for cultivation.
The lottery live broadcast continued.
The Heavenly Origin Holy Maiden, his idol.
With a light laugh, she announced the sixth number,
“Number 1! The sixth Mystic Turtle to reach the peak circle has number 1 on its back!
“Congratulations to the cultivators who bought number 1!
“You are one step closer to the grand prize.”
As soon as the Holy Maiden finished speaking, the barrage on the screen exploded again.
“Oh my God, number 1! I specifically skipped number 1 when picking my numbers, so frustrating!”
“I’ve got five out of six numbers correct, feeling like the second prize is waving at me!”
“I haven’t matched any of the six numbers, this luck is unbelievable!”
“Indeed, it feels like winning the lottery is so difficult. Is there really someone who will win the first prize?”
Hua Yunfei’s senior brothers around him were instantly filled with sighs.
It was clear that they had all been eliminated.
One of them enviously said, “I just saw on the barrage that someone has already matched five numbers.”
Everyone showed expressions of longing.
That’s luck.
And Hua Yunfei also echoed.
But the hands hidden under his sleeve had started to tremble.
As a cultivator, even if he was only at the Qi Refining Realm, he shouldn’t be unable to control his hands, unless he was extremely excited.
And Hua Yunfei’s trembling hands were because he had matched all six numbers!
The consolation prize was already his.
But his heart was storming.
Could it be that he really won the grand prize?
Not to mention, if he won the fourth prize, with over a hundred high-grade spirit stones.
For someone in the Qi Refining stage, it would be an astronomical amount.
If he won, with such vast resources, he would definitely stand out among the countless outer disciples.
Hua Yunfei eagerly continued to watch.
At this moment, the main group of Mystic Turtles had reached the peak, attracting the attention of all cultivators.
It was now the final moments of the draw.
As the last few numbers could appear in just a few breaths.
Countless cultivators didn’t even dare to blink, afraid of missing out.
“The seventh… the seventh Mystic Turtle has number 6 on its back!
“Congratulations to those who chose number 6!
“The eighth one has also arrived!
“The eighth Mystic Turtle at the peak has number 79 on its back!
“The ninth Mystic Turtle has number 41 on its back…”
At this point, only one Mystic Turtle remained.
The final number of the first lottery draw was about to be decided.
Even those who had already been eliminated and didn’t even get a consolation prize were feeling their hearts race.
What would the last number be?
Would someone win the grand prize?
Hua Yunfei’s hands under his sleeve were clenched into fists.
His eyes, strained from the effort, had large bloodshot areas.
No other reason…
He had matched all nine numbers.
He never expected that just by trying his luck.
He would actually win…
And match all nine numbers.
Now, Hua Yunfei had won the second prize.
According to the number of spirit stones in the prize pool, if only he were the only one to win the second prize, he would receive twenty-five thousand high-grade spirit stones.
Twenty-five thousand high-grade spirit stones!
Even for a Golden Core cultivator, It would take nearly a hundred years to earn that amount.
After all, a Golden Core cultivator earns only about one or two hundred spirit stones a year.
From this comparison, one could imagine how enormous the second prize was.
At this moment, Hua Yunfei’s heart was in complete disarray.
He was even more filled with anticipation for the higher first prize...
If he won the first prize, he would receive nearly 180,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Then he might even have a chance to achieve Nascent Soul!
Countless cultivators were waiting for the final lottery number.
But at this moment, a gale swept across the peak.
Those Mystic Turtles that were about to enter the circle, which were not even at the Qi Refining Realm, could not resist and were directly blown away, falling down the mountain.
This scene shocked all the cultivators watching.
Gales at a height of three thousand meters were not uncommon.
But a gale sweeping across the peak at the final moment and clearing it was indeed dramatic.
The heartbeats of many cultivators accelerated once again.
The anticipation was immense.
Hua Yunfei could even hear the pounding of his own heart.
It was evident how tense he was.
Which Mystic Turtle would be the last to enter the circle?
What number would it have?
The barrage on the screen had stopped.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, a Mystic Turtle quickly crawled from the rear mountain towards the golden-tailed spirit fish.
Looking at the number on the back of this Mystic Turtle, countless cultivators were astonished...
“Isn’t this the 49th Mystic Turtle that didn’t go in a straight line and took a detour at the beginning?”
“Oh my God, it actually came from the back of the mountain.”
“It perfectly avoided that recent gale, it’s simply unbelievable!”
“As expected, you can’t be sure of the outcome until the very last moment of the draw.”
Under the incredulous gazes of countless cultivators, the 49th Mystic Turtle rushed into the circle.
At that moment, the entire Great Yan Province was in an uproar.
The barrage exploded.
Countless cultivators stood up.
“Damn, I was watching the 55th Mystic Turtle about to enter, but it got blown away by the gale, and my consolation prize is gone!”
“I won, I won, I matched seven numbers, I won the fourth prize!”
“I did win a consolation prize, but I bought fifty tickets, so it’s a huge loss!”
“I was so close. Next time I’ll definitely win!”
“I want to know, did anyone win the first prize?”
At this moment, the live broadcast displayed all the winning numbers.
Comparing the numbers, cultivators who won were extremely excited.
Those who didn’t win were deeply disappointed.
They felt their luck was just a bit short.
They believed they would win next time.
Next to Hua Yunfei, the surrounding disciples were all sighing.
“If only I had two more numbers, I would have won a consolation prize. It’s too bad. I’ll definitely make up for it next time.”
“I had considered the numbers 96, 36, 39 before, but didn’t buy them. If I had, I would have won the fourth prize.”
“Indeed, you should follow your intuition when buying lottery tickets. It seems to have a higher success rate!”
At this moment, Hua Yunfei could no longer hear what his senior brothers were saying.
Because his heart was filled with overwhelming joy.
He didn’t match the last number.
Hua Yunfei won the second prize.
But the second prize far exceeded his expectations.
Twenty-five thousand high-grade spirit stones were enough for him to do nothing but cultivate to the late stage of Golden Core Realm.
It also allowed him to freely study any knowledge he wanted in the Immortal Net Cloud Classroom.
Moreover, it would let him bid for several suitable treasures in the Immortal Net Auction House, allowing him to stand out among the outer disciples.
Hua Yunfei knew.
At the moment he won, his previously ordinary path in cultivation would become drastically different.
His life trajectory would become extraordinarily brilliant.
At this moment, Hua Yunfei felt immense gratitude toward the Heavenly Origin Saint Master who created the lottery.
It was the Heavenly Origin Saint Master who changed his life.
In his excitement, Hua Yunfei’s Immortal Net Little Spirit Communicator chimed in, “Congratulations, you have won the second prize…
“The prize will be distributed within an hour!
“The winning list will be announced soon…
“Would you like to remain anonymous?”
