46: Chapter 46 I'm so lucky today

His straightforward action actually left Elder Fu slightly stunned.

He looked at the two of them, somewhat hesitant.

It wasn't that there hadn't been stakes on the Heavenly Pride Platform before, but they were usually just some Medicinal Pills or weapons. This was the first time someone had brought their entire net worth as a stake.

However, looking at Chun Xiaobai's arrogant and punchable face...

The more he looked, the angrier he got.

This type of Disciple was clearly just a newcomer to the Sect looking for attention. Now that he couldn't win, he wanted to back down and was intentionally trying to make others retreat by making it difficult.

He puffed out his beard and nodded directly, saying, "Since it is your own decision, then fine, we will do as you wish."

"But let's be clear beforehand, once the stakes are set, there is no backing out!"

"Ah??!"

Chun Xiaobai immediately wore a look of terror.

In reality, he was blooming with joy inside.

"Th-th-this..."

"What 'this' what? Hurry up!" Lu Mang's face blossomed with joy.

"Damn it, my luck is really good today! Someone actually came to deliver their fortune on their own!"

Originally, no matter how he looked at Chun Xiaobai, he felt annoyed. Now, he only found the kid exceptionally cute, like he was seeing his own long-lost father of three hundred years.

"Since you kid are so proactive in delivering your fortune to my door, then fine. Later, I'll spare you from lying in bed for a few months."

Seeing this, Bai Jiner was anxious and wanted to go up to persuade Chun Xiaobai, but was grabbed by Fang Yuan beside her.

"Junior Sister Bai, don't be anxious!" Fang Yuan lowered his voice, his eyes full of excitement.

"Even if you don't trust the Mountain King's combat power, you must trust his sneak attack ability! We've seen it those two times before, haven't we?"

Chun Xiaobai, on the other hand, had a pained expression as he reluctantly handed the three Storage Pouches in his hands to Elder Fu, acting as if he were truly cutting off his own flesh.

Elder Fu took the Storage Pouches, and seeing his frustrated appearance, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"Today, I'll let you, this ignorant brat, learn a good lesson!"

Afterwards, he looked towards Lu Mang.

Lu Mang "whooshed" and unhooked the Storage Pouch from his waist, slapped it directly into Elder Fu's hand, and then strode towards the arena in the center of the Heavenly Pride Platform.

"Sigh!"

Chun Xiaobai let out a heavy sigh, then dragged his feet, following behind with a listless and dejected appearance.

His appearance caused the surrounding Disciples watching the excitement to cover their mouths and giggle.

Meanwhile, Fang Yuan in the crowd was so excited that his eyes narrowed into slits, and he immediately raised his arms and shouted.

"Mountain King, go! Mountain King, mighty!"

"Uh!!!"

The people around were stunned and turned their heads to look.

What Mountain King?

Could this guy be an emperor from some Mortal kingdom?

"Uh..."

Fang Yuan only then realized he had shouted out of habit and quickly corrected himself.

"Chun... Senior Brother Chun, go! Senior Brother Chun, victory is yours!"

Afterward, he nudged Bai Jiner beside him with his shoulder, signaling her to quickly cheer along as well.

Bai Jiner, however, was full of nervousness at this moment; she was in no mood to cheer.

In her view, Chun Xiaobai was barely capable of even Qi Induction, and this opponent was a Disciple ranked in the top fifty of the heavenly pride list, a true Genius. How could he win just by relying on sneak attacks?

The two arrived at the center of the martial arts stage and stood still.

Chun Xiaobai still wore that miserable expression as if his parents had died.

No choice; in order to get rich in one go on this Heavenly Pride Platform, he had to play the grandson first.

If he accidentally scared these guys away, where else would he go to make a fortune?

He had two major trump cards: the Sky-Tearing Hand and the Heaven-Treading Step. As long as he didn't run into a Disciple at the Foundation Establishment Stage, he had full confidence that he could pin these so-called "Geniuses" to the ground and rub their faces in the dirt.

After all, he was, at the very least, a proper Qi Refining Middle Stage Cultivator.

Most importantly, his pure single-arm strength had now reached nearly ten thousand jin!

If he still couldn't beat them with this, how could he survive in this Immortal Realm in the future?

How could he restore the majesty of the Mountain King?

"Are you ready?" Lu Mang rolled up his sleeves, raised the tiger-head long saber in his hand, and asked with a grin.

Chun Xiaobai followed suit, pulling out a tattered long saber from his Storage Pouch, and nodded nervously.

"Can we wait a little longer?"

"Wait?" Lu Mang sneered, assuming he was just scared. "Coming to this Heavenly Pride Platform, there is no opportunity to wait! I'll beat you down early, and I'll get rich early!"

As he spoke, he stomped his foot, his burly figure rushing out like a cannonball, the long saber in his hand drawing a fierce arc as he slashed down at his head!

"Ah!!"

Chun Xiaobai let out an exaggerated cry, then, without thinking, turned and ran.

"Hahahaha..."

His cowardly appearance immediately drew a burst of uproarious laughter from the onlookers among the Disciples below.

However, seeing this scene, Fang Yuan in the crowd had eyes shining with light, and he became even more confident.

That's right, that's right!

This is the rhythm!

The two unlucky guys before, weren't they tricked exactly like this and finally pinned to the ground by the Mountain King to be rubbed into the dirt? He clenched his fists and roared excitedly in a low voice.

"Senior Brother Chun, go!"

Elder Fu watched the two on the stage, one chasing and one fleeing, circling the platform endlessly, his old face twitching.

This guy was really just here to make a fool of himself!

"Kid, you run quite fast!"

Lu Mang shouted while chasing, but he wasn't in a hurry, just like a fierce tiger toying with its prey, enjoying the thrill of the other party struggling in fear.

However, as he chased, he realized something was wrong.

Don't look at him as big and rough; his mind was relatively delicate.

He suddenly discovered that no matter whether he sped up or slowed down, he always maintained a fixed distance from the guy in front; he couldn't touch even the hem of his clothes.

Chun Xiaobai caught his slightly furrowed brow and knew clearly that this guy had obviously seen the problem.

He immediately stopped operating the Heaven-Treading Step, intentionally pausing his figure slightly to reveal an opening.

Lu Mang grabbed this fleeting opportunity, instantly casting aside the doubts in his mind. He suddenly flipped the long saber in his hand and fiercely slashed out a blade aura towards Chun Xiaobai's back!

That blade aura carried a piercing sound as it cut through the air, gradually enlarging in mid-air, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a blood-colored spirit blade over three meters long!

"Damn! Finally saw someone using a Spell!"

Seeing this, a flash of excitement crossed Chun Xiaobai's eyes. He immediately gathered an invisible force onto the blade, suddenly turned around, and held the long saber horizontally in front of his chest.

Clang!

The blood-colored blade aura slashed fiercely onto the back of his saber, instantly erupting with a deafening bang!

However, it was just a loud bang; Chun Xiaobai's body didn't even sway.

"This... doesn't seem to be very good either!" he muttered to himself.

However, in order to prevent the opponent from seeing through the flaw, he took advantage of the impact force before it had fully dissipated, sliding his figure backward sharply. His feet dragged across the arena, leaving markings over ten zhang away, before he "barely" stabilized his figure.

Those onlooker Disciples only saw Chun Xiaobai being sent flying by Lu Mang's slash and immediately erupted into thunderous cheers and shouts.

"Senior Brother Lu, go!"

"Senior Brother Lu, mighty! Hack him to death!"
