Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Heavenly Dao Umbrella, Seven Kills Annihilation

Chapter 48 The Shy Golden Retriever, the Championship Battle

"All in! Xiao Jiang, you're right, all in is a kind of wisdom!"

With a wave of her hand, Qian Renxue took out all her wealth.

Jin Yue'er followed closely behind.

Jiang Nian smiled, wondering what his odds would be this time.

Should I continue to suppress myself?
still···
After the first round of the competition, there is still half an hour to recover soul power.

Although it might not be fair to Jiang Nian, he didn't care.

The little bit of soul power I expended can be easily restored by eating a couple of herbs that help me recover it.

After the three of them staked everything on the bet, they managed to scrape together 105 million gold soul coins.

The two of them had each earned 20,000 gold soul coins, which Jiang Nian had somewhat forgotten about.

As gamblers placed their bets, his odds weren't as low as expected; instead, they became the median for the game.

"Twice? That high? Why is no one betting on Jiang Nian anymore?"

"Are you stupid?! How much soul power can he recover in half an hour? Even if he recovers completely, Jiang Nian will probably be besieged by the other nine people. Who told him to perform so brilliantly in the first match?"

"That's true... I didn't expect that Hu Bian from the Black Tiger Sect would have the lowest odds... and Ling Rou is also a top contender for the championship."

"It's a pity about Tuoba Jun. Level 39... If the event had been postponed for a month or two, he might have been the undisputed champion."

The audience whispered among themselves, discussing which contestant would win. Although Jiang Nian was also highly regarded, they all seemed to guess that the other nine would gang up on him.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Inside the private room, Jiang Nian got up to open the door after hearing the knock, but Jin Yue'er stopped him and opened it herself.

squeak~
A chubby man walked in and froze when he saw the girl with pigtails. Then, when he looked at Qian Renxue with her full head of blonde hair, he couldn't help but gasp.

Damn! I heard this morning that Brother Nian brought two girls over, but they weren't this well-dressed...

Zhao Bai composed himself and stepped forward.

"Brother Nian."

Jiang Nian nodded, but then his next sentence almost made him choke.

"Sister-in-law Nian?" Zhao Bai tentatively looked at Qian Renxue. As someone who was highly skilled at reading people, he could naturally tell who was higher in status between the two women.

"Huh?!" The little golden retriever's mind went blank for a moment, and a strange mix of emotions surged and intertwined in his mind.

Her pretty face suddenly turned bright red, so pink it looked like it was about to bleed.

The adorable scene made Jiang Nian unable to resist taking a second look.

Qian Renxue noticed his gaze and became even more shy, covering her face and turning away, seemingly lost in thought.

Jin Yue'er glared at Zhao Bai, snorted coldly, and sat down on the sofa next to him. If looks could kill, this little fat boy would have been reduced to ashes by now.

Zhao Bai shuddered and gave an awkward laugh.

"Cough cough... It's not what you think." Jiang Nian rubbed his temples, somewhat speechless.

The people here are so precocious. How old is he?

But... how old were Oscar's parents when they had their child...?
All I can say is, this little cow is flying in an airplane, she's really something else!

"Oh, I see."

"I clasp my hands in greeting; I was mistaken."

Zhao Baile chuckled, and after observing Qian Renxue's expression once more, he was immediately certain.

Since Brother Nian doesn't want to talk about it, then let's not discuss it.

······
"Brother Nian, this is a soul tool for restoring soul power. Use it now."

"Is this what you came for?" Jiang Nian asked curiously.

“Yeah.” Zhao Bai pinched his nose; he didn’t want his good buddy to suffer a loss.

There's plenty of time now. If all else fails, we can call in a support Soul Saint to help Brother Nian recover his soul power.

"I appreciate your kindness, but I've already fully recovered."

Zhao Bai: "?"

After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and smiled, "Brother Nian, if you need anything from me, just let me know."

"I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, Zhao Bai quietly left, feeling that if he didn't leave soon, he would be glared at to death. Qian Renxue was still in Hongwen, and Jiang Nian also looked at Jin Yue'er's eyes with some embarrassment.

She was pouting, clearly not in a good mood.

"That...Xiao Jiang..."

"Don't mind him, Fatty's just talking nonsense," Jiang Nian interrupted casually.

Qian Renxue felt a pang of disappointment when she saw his nonchalant attitude.

After giving him a disgruntled glare, his initial tension and anticipation instantly plummeted.

"Hmph, I know!"

Hmm...it would be best to know.

He didn't want to be hung up by Bibi Dong.

There are also a thousand streams...

Sigh, I just wanted to cultivate myself into a god in peace and quiet, I had no other intentions!

Of course, it will happen again in eight years.

Jin Yue'er lowered her head, somewhat annoyed.

That chubby guy was outspoken, but he was, after all, Brother Nian's friend.

but!

Why not take her with you?
Am I really that uncompetitive?
I glanced down, then stole a look at Sister Xiaoxue.

Ha~ Weakling!

"Sister Yue'er, what are you doing?"

"Huh? I...I was thinking about something..."

···
Half an hour later.

Jiang Nian calmly stepped off the stage, without continuing to tread on the void.

As soon as he stepped onto the stage, he noticed that all nine people were staring at him.

Jiang Nian showed no fear, calmly surveying the group of people.

"Dude, your name is Jiang Nian, right? I'm curious, how old were you when you broke through to Soul Venerable?" Tuoba Jun's expression showed a hint of resentment, but his words were still polite.

"I am not very talented, but I broke through to the Soul Venerable level at the age of sixteen."

After he finished speaking, a hint of arrogance still lingered on his face.

This speed is not slow even on the entire continent, and there is a glimmer of hope for him to break through to Soul Douluo or even Title Douluo in the future.

Jiang Nian gave him a strange look, somewhat reluctant to discourage this sect that was the future Spirit Hall.

"What? Are you intimidated by me?"

"No... I just felt it wasn't necessary." Jiang Nian shook his head, too lazy to answer.

This continent has never lacked geniuses; only those who grow up can become famous and leave their mark on history.

A project that fails halfway through may only become a topic of sighing and lamentation in some small town at mealtimes in the future.

"Hmph! Then please, Brother Jiang, go down first."

After saying that, all nine of them activated their martial spirits simultaneously.

Not one of them was of poor quality; they were all seeds of Soul Saints and Soul Douluos in the future.

In particular, Ling Rou of the Sparrow Bee Sect and Hu Bian of the Black Tiger Sect are both four-ring Soul Sect members.

They tacitly agreed to take action against Jiang Nian first, without even needing to communicate.

"Here it comes! Jiang Nian is going to take on nine opponents! We look forward to creating another miracle."

"I've completely bet on Tiger Flattened Egg! I'm Little Flattened Egg's loyal subject!"

"Is it because my sister Rou isn't pretty, or her legs aren't long enough?!"

The familiar yellow Zizi floated beneath Jiang Nian's feet. Ling Rou, an agility-type Soul Master, took a step forward in high heels. Her alluring and sexy figure was quite mismatched with the clothes she was wearing.

Cute and charming.

"Handsome young man, how about I treat you to a meal after this is all over?"
