Douluo Continent: A new system every month, starting by tricking Tang San.

Chapter 65 Yu Xiaogang signs the agreement, this is the treatment my master deserves!

Throughout the conversation, the person in charge maintained a smile and appeared to be gentle and refined.

But Yu Xiaogang found it particularly disgusting and hypocritical.

If you want money, just ask for money, don't pretend to be some kind of good person.

Little did he know, he himself was the same kind of person.

Knowing he was in the wrong this time, he didn't say much.

"Why should we have to bear the cost of ticket refunds for the audience? Shouldn't that be the responsibility of your Arena?"

Although Yu Xiaogang felt a little guilty, he still forced himself to remain calm and said those words.

He also guessed roughly what was going on, because of Tang San's explosive performance in the Soul Arena.

Some audience members requested refunds.

This is indeed Tang San's problem, and there's no way to refute it.

But one hundred gold soul coins are just too many.

If I were to give it all away, I would be giving away all the savings I've accumulated over the years.

"Hehe, that's how it is."

The person in charge smiled, then surprisingly took out a piece of white paper and began to read.

"The agreement for participating in the Soto Grand Arena is very clear."

"Any loss in the Soul Arena caused by personal reasons shall be compensated by the individual."

"As you've probably seen, many audience members have chosen to get refunds because of your disciple."

"Therefore, you will need to bear this loss."

"Of course, our Soul Arena isn't heartless; we greatly admire talent like your disciple."

At this point, the person in charge smiled again.

But this time, the smile didn't seem like a professional fake smile; it seemed more like he genuinely couldn't hold back his laughter.

"Out of concern for you, I am willing to pay 20% of the compensation costs out of my own pocket."

"In this way, you only need to pay eighty gold soul coins in compensation. What do you think?"

Yu Xiaogang's face flushed red and then turned green.

Although what the person in charge said was perfectly normal.

But it sounded somewhat uncomfortable to him.

What does it mean to greatly admire someone like Tang San?

Isn't this just blatant sarcasm?

Seemingly aware of Yu Xiaogang's thoughts, the person in charge spoke again slowly.

"Perhaps you are unaware of this, but your disciple's reputation has already spread throughout the entire Soto Grand Arena."

"To put it another way, he's currently very popular."

"If we continue to participate in the Soul Battle in the next few days, we will definitely attract a lot of popularity."

A person's sudden popularity is not necessarily due to their strong abilities.

Being able to create viral content can also lead to widespread popularity.

As long as someone watches, that's enough.

The arena prioritizes whether tickets can be sold.

As for whether the audience applauded or cursed.

That's not related to their relationship.

"What do you mean by that?"

Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly, sensing a hidden meaning in the words of the person in charge.

"If you'd like, the next week."

"Continue to have your disciples participate in the Soul Battles at the Soto Grand Arena."

"As for the opponents in the Soul Fighting mode, they are all within the normal range of strength."

"However, we can arrange for him to face a weaker opponent, so that your disciple can win."

"But the other half might be slightly stronger, which is also for the sake of balancing the win rate."

"At the same time, the Battle Arena will increase its promotion, and will receive 5% of the Battle Arena's revenue over these seven days."

"I can make it up to you in my personal capacity."

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.

Five percent of the profits, even if it's just from the Soul Arena, is still a considerable amount.

"However, you still need to pay the compensation of eighty gold soul coins."

As he spoke, the person in charge took out another agreement with the words written in black and white on it.

It was pushed in front of Yu Xiaogang.

The latter glanced at it twice, saw that it was the same as what the other party had just said and had no objections, so he directly picked up the pen and signed it.

"Clatter—~!"

Yu Xiaogang reluctantly pulled a money pouch out of his soul tool.

He counted out twenty gold soul coins and put them back in his pocket, then threw the remaining eighty gold soul coins on the table.

"We'll be back at the Soto Arena on time tomorrow."

This could be considered his private stash of money; there were one hundred gold soul coins in one money bag.

After taking out twenty coins, there were eighty coins left.

Consider it compensation to the Arena.

"I'll be waiting for you both anytime."

The person in charge stood up and escorted Yu Xiaogang and Tang San to the door.

He even personally opened the office door for them.

They were seen off very politely.

At the entrance, the two men in black who had been there before were still standing guard on either side.

The person in charge whispered a few words in their ears.

Their attitude towards Yu Xiaogang improved dramatically instantly.

"These two will escort you to the entrance of the Soto Arena, so please don't hesitate to come."

Yu Xiaogang nodded with great satisfaction.

This is the treatment that a master like me should enjoy.

It satisfied his vanity.

Tang San's complexion returned to normal.

As expected, it has to be a teacher.

As long as there are teachers, there is no problem that cannot be solved.

Escorted by two men in black, they were taken directly to the entrance of the Soul Arena on the first floor through a special internal passage.

"Please take care, both of you."

Yu Xiaogang waved his hand casually, without even turning his head.

He pulled Tang San and walked outside.

Tang San needs to rest well tomorrow as he has to participate in the Soul Battle.

"Smack—~!"

However, not far from the Great Soul Arena, a hand suddenly landed on Yu Xiaogang's shoulder.

The latter felt a sudden tightness in his chest and became tense.

For such a trivial matter, would the Great Soul Arena really go back on its word and kill someone to silence them?

Even a rabbit will bite when cornered.

Yu Xiaogang is not someone who can be bullied easily!

"Hey guys, how about tickets for tomorrow's Soul Arena?"

"20% off!"

"I have inside information; there's going to be a really exciting show tomorrow."

Yu Xiaogang's face immediately darkened!

What the hell was that he was just a ticket scalper at the Soto Arena?

These people are always appearing and disappearing mysteriously in the streets and alleys near the Great Soul Arena.

They specifically target people to sell tickets they've obtained.

Moreover, it's cheaper than buying tickets at the regular Soul Arena.

Yu Xiaogang casually wiped the cold sweat from his forehead; this ticket scalper had really scared him half to death.

"What exciting program?"

Yu Xiaogang originally planned to leave directly.

But he always felt that the exciting show the ticket scalpers were talking about seemed to be related to Tang San.

Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Tang San was completely petrified and stood frozen to the side.

Didn't the teacher say that he should be taken to the hospital immediately?

How come I can even strike up a conversation with a ticket scalper?

They don't need to buy tickets as participants!

But at this moment, Yu Xiaogang was watching the ticket scalper in front of him with great interest.

These people are outwardly hostile to the official ticket office of the Grand Arena.

But in reality, the two sides often cooperate behind the scenes.

The resources available to ticket scalpers far exceed what most people imagine.

The publicity effect they can achieve.

It's even more useful than some dedicated tools.
