Chapter 109 is still an instant kill.

"Are you afraid?" Xu Jie questioned.

"I'm just not interested in someone I've already defeated," Chu Han sneered.

The surrounding New Students immediately began whispering: "Xu Jie is a junior with Fifth-Stage Extreme strength. Isn't it a bit disgraceful to challenge a New Student?"

"Exactly. There's no Face in winning, and losing would be even more humiliating."

Xu Jie's Face turned blue and white as he immediately defended himself: "What do you know? Chu Han's combat power rating is 699, and he's already entered the overall rankings. He's not a normal New Student at all! He's a Genius rarely seen in a century. Why shouldn't I challenge him?"

Although Xu Jie was a bit flustered, his strength was undeniable.

His words carried a powerful Aura of Yuan Qi, instantly suppressing the surrounding New Students into silence.

Seeing that Chu Han remained unmoved, Xu Jie gritted his teeth and threw out a chip: "If you dare to accept the challenge, I'll bet 10,000 credits with you! If you win, my 10,000 credits are yours. If you lose, you give me 10,000 credits! How about it?"

Chu Han's heart stirred slightly upon hearing this; credits were exactly what he urgently needed.

Since Xu Jie was rushing to deliver credits, he seemed to have no reason to refuse.

Why not take this opportunity to fleece Xu Jie thoroughly?

He raised an eyebrow and said, "10,000 credits is too little. If we're betting, let's bet 50,000. Do you have that much?"

"50,000?!" The entire crowd instantly went into an uproar.

50,000 credits was an astronomical figure for a New Student; most New Students couldn't earn that much even if they worked themselves to death for a year.

Even for a junior senior and Battle Team vice-captain like Xu Jie, it was a significant sum, equivalent to several months of his credit income.

Xu Jie's Face instantly became incredibly ugly; he hadn't expected Chu Han to actually dare to raise the stakes further.

Who gave him the courage?

If a New Student owed 50,000 credits, their entire campus career would be ruined!

At this moment, all eyes were focused on him, and Xu Jie had no way to retreat.

As a third-year senior and the initiator of the challenge, he absolutely could not back down.

He gritted his teeth and said, "50,000 it is! But I see you've just entered the school; I'm afraid you can't produce 50,000 credits, can you?"

"If you don't dare, then forget it." Chu Han turned to leave.

"Fine! I agree!" Xu Jie roared, "If you lose, you'll owe me 50,000 credits! The school has notaries, I'll see how you try to back out!"

"No problem," Chu Han sneered and agreed.

"Good! At two o'clock this afternoon, I'll wait for you at the school's Central Arena!"

Xu Jie left behind those words and departed with his group.

Chu Han also left the scene because he was too much of a focus.

And this massive gamble instantly set the entire Capital Martial Arts University ablaze.

"Dragon Roar Battle Team Vice-Captain challenges the New Student top scorer!"

"50,000 Credit Massive Gamble!"

This news spread rapidly through Campus Forums and communication groups, reaching the top of the campus hot search list within just an hour.

The school higher-ups did not stop it; instead, they tacitly allowed this public challenge.

In the world of Martial Artists, strength is respected, and such a contest was itself a form of tempering.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the area around the school's Central Arena was already packed with people.

The spectator seats surrounding the arena were completely filled, and many Senior Students had even skipped class specifically to watch.

Some people were even setting up private betting pools; Xu Jie's odds were set at 1 to 2.

While Chu Han's odds directly reached 1 to 20!

A full ten-fold difference.

Most students bet on Xu Jie to win; in their eyes, a Fifth-Stage Extreme Senior Student fighting a New Student was simply a guaranteed profit.

This was also the attitude of most students toward this match.

Only a few people bet on Chu Han, mostly with a "take a gamble" mindset, without investing too much.

However, the students of the Body Tempering Academy were exceptionally active. A burly Senior Student directly slapped down 10,000 credits to bet on Chu Han winning, leading a group of Body Tempering Academy students to follow suit.

"Are you guys crazy? You're actually betting on a New Student to win?" someone asked in confusion.

That Senior Student from the Body Tempering Academy sneered: "What the hell do you know? Chu Han is one of us from the Body Tempering Academy, Dean Qiu Zhan's Personal Disciple! He's a ruthless guy who stepped onto the 30th floor in the Ladder Trial. That Physical Body strength will crush Xu Jie like it's child's play!"

As soon as these words came out, some of the surrounding people were momentarily stunned.

30th floor of the Body Tempering Academy's Ladder?

That was a height that many Senior Students couldn't reach!

For a moment, many people began to waver and secretly changed their bets, causing the odds to suddenly drop to 1 to 15.

But most people still firmly believed Xu Jie would win.

"Brother Han, I've bet all the credits you gave me, as well as all the assets of myself, Bai Wei, and Qingyue on you! You must win!"

Zhao Feiyu was cheering from the side.

"Didn't I tell you to borrow from your sister? Why didn't it work?" Chu Han asked in a low voice.

Zhao Feiyu shook his head: "My sister doesn't have many credits on her either; she's used them all up recently."

"That's a pity."

If all of Zhao Feifei's credits had been bet on him, they would have surely won a huge sum of money.

"Xu Jie is here."

The crowd parted as Xu Jie arrived at the arena surrounded by a group of people.

He held a long-handled great axe, and his entire body radiated the Aura of a strong expert.

"I should go up now."

Since Xu Jie was in position, he wouldn't waste any more time.

Leaping onto the arena, Chu Han and Xu Jie stood facing each other.

"Bets are closed! Bets are closed!"

Shouts came from below the stage.

At this time, another figure appeared on the arena.

This was a teacher in his thirties or forties, whose strength had already reached the Sixth-Stage Extreme.

He said to the two of them, "I am the notary for this match. Hand over your student ID information to me, and this bet will be officially established."

"Fine!"

The two didn't waste words and both handed their student IDs to the teacher.

The Yuan Qi inside Xu Jie's body circulated frantically, and his Fifth-Stage Extreme Aura erupted without reservation. Air currents surged around him, making him look full of momentum.

"Chu Han, don't think you can sneak attack me like you did yesterday," Xu Jie said, staring intently at Chu Han.

"The result today won't change at all," Chu Han sneered.

"Being stubborn is useless. Today I'll let you know that the gap between a New Student and a Senior Student isn't something that can be made up for by a combat power rating!" Xu Jie condensed dense Yuan Qi in both hands, preparing to launch an attack.

Chu Han stood in place with a calm expression and said indifferently, "Make your move, I'm in a hurry."

His composure, in Xu Jie's eyes, was blatant contempt.

"You're looking for death!"

Xu Jie roared, and brilliant flames suddenly erupted from his body as he raised his battle-axe high and cleaved down toward the top of Chu Han's head!

"Blazing Mountain Splitting Axe!"

The giant axe was augmented by flames, carrying terrifying heat that caused the surrounding air to begin to twist and distort.

With the arena as the center, the area within a hundred-meter radius was enveloped by a wave of terrifying high temperature.

"So strong! Is this Xu Jie's true strength?"

"Chu Han is in danger; the opponent is a Fifth-Stage Extreme expert!"

Exclamations came from the crowd below the stage.

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Xu Jie's eyes. He went all out from the start, aiming to decide the victory in a single strike.

At this moment, Chu Han made no movement. In Xu Jie's eyes, he was already scared stupid by his own power.

"Even if you admit defeat, you'll still have to take this axe strike."

Xu Jie roared inwardly.

At this moment, Chu Han moved.

Facing Xu Jie's axe strike, he didn't use any fancy moves; he simply slowly extended his right fist.

His fist carried a majestic momentum as it met Xu Jie's giant axe.

Boom!

As the fist and axe collided, a startling Yuan Qi explosion instantly erupted on the arena.

Under everyone's shocked gaze, Chu Han's fist shattered Xu Jie's giant axe like dry weeds and rotten wood. The force of the punch penetrated the flame shroud and instantly slammed into Xu Jie's chest.

Crack!

Accompanied by the sound of breaking bones, Xu Jie's body was instantly sent flying backward like a cannonball.

He slammed heavily into a large tree a hundred meters away from the arena.
