Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 46 Xun Wenruo's Intention

The news of Nan Feihuang's challenge to Yu Tianheng quickly spread throughout the Heaven Dou Royal Academy thanks to the deliberate efforts of certain individuals, attracting widespread attention.

After all, Yu Tianheng is a genius known throughout the school. Although he is currently only in the Tianzhi Class, his strength has already met the requirements of the Tiandou Class. Moreover, he is younger than everyone in the Tiandou Class, while the so-called geniuses in the Tiandou Class are all over eighteen years old. In addition, Nan Feihuang is also the son of Xuanbing Douluo, and it is said that he inherited his mother's heaven-defying talent.

Such a duel between the two naturally attracted a lot of interest, and even the senior students from the Heavenly Battle Class were prepared to come and watch.

Nan Feihuang also learned that Yu Tianheng's current level was level thirty-one. To be honest, he was a little disappointed.

No wonder he was only level 39 when he first appeared, around 19 or 20 years old, just two levels higher than Dai Mubai who was 15. While his cultivation speed wasn't slow for his age group, it wasn't particularly fast either.

He's probably on par with Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, and Hu Yanli from the Five Elements Academy.

It really does live up to his reputation as the number one beast spirit in the world.

"Bet placed! Yu Tianheng vs. Nan Feihuang, Yu Tianheng wins at odds of 2.65, draw at odds of 3.05, Nan Feihuang wins at odds of 2.80!"

A flamboyant man had already set up a stall; clearly, he was the one who had leaked the news, intending to make a quick buck.

"Hey Oslo, you're gambling with Tianheng, aren't you afraid of being poisoned by Yanzi?" Ye Lingling said irritably.

"Hehe, isn't this a sign of my trust in our captain? Look, Nan Feihuang's odds are higher than the captain's. Sister Yanzi is overjoyed," Oslo laughed. "Lingling, why don't you place a bet too? Your support-type soul master cultivation is so difficult, consuming far more resources than ours. Wouldn't it be great to make some money?"

"I never gamble, and besides, I don't have any money." Ye Lingling resolutely refused. Admittedly, her cultivation resources were extremely depleted, and the physique of a support-type soul master was much weaker than that of a power-attack or agility-attack type.

Therefore, after each special training session, she needs a longer period of medicinal bath to recuperate her body in order to avoid leaving any hidden injuries.

This left her with very little pocket money. Although her mother joined the Heavenly Dou Empire and obtained a noble status, she couldn't withstand this kind of spending.

Ye Lingling had long ago developed a good habit of saving money.

"I've placed Miss Ye's bet. Here are 200,000 gold soul coins. I'm betting everything on my prince to win. If I lose, it's all on me. But if I win, you just need to give me the principal. All the winnings will go to Miss Ye." A gold soul coin card was slapped in front of Oslo.

It was Xun Yu, and the 200,000 gold soul coins were given to him by Nan Tianchen. Although it was only one-fifth of Nan Feihuang's, it should be more than enough for him to earn in three years.

Xun Yu immediately staked all his resources on it.

"Two...two hundred thousand gold soul coins?" Oslo looked at Xun Yu in shock. It wasn't that no one had placed bets before, but usually it was only a few hundred or a few thousand gold soul coins. Some wealthy nobles might bet tens of thousands.

This is the first time someone has spent 200,000 in one go. After all, nobles spend a lot of money to please even more powerful nobles, and they also have their own enjoyment of food, drink, and entertainment. Their income is high, but their spending is also high.

Not everyone is like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, able to pull out millions of gold soul coins without batting an eye.

Is this guy so confident in his prince that he's not afraid of things going wrong?

You must know that although His Highness has achieved great things at a young age and reached level 28, he is still one soul ring short of Yu Tianheng. Moreover, at such a young age, he must have devoted all his energy to cultivating his soul power.

Battles aren't just about soul power; combat experience and skills are also key to victory.

A person with only soul power but no practical combat experience and little training in combat skills, facing Yu Tianheng, who possesses the strongest beast martial soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, and is a regular in the Soul Arena, it's obvious to anyone with eyes to see who is superior.

"Why are you like this?" Ye Lingling looked at Xun Yu in confusion.

It's one thing for this person to place bets, but why place them in her name? If they lose, she doesn't have to bear the consequences, but if they win, all the benefits are hers. What's the point?

"I don't have any particular thoughts. You're the first person to call me by my name, so I'd like to express my gratitude," Xun Yu said.

Ye Lingling shook her head. "There's no need for that. Calling someone by their name is just normal etiquette. I don't deserve such a reward. Take back your Gold Soul Coin Card. Even if you still want to place a bet, you can place it in your own name."

"Hehe, it's admirable that you don't covet money, young lady." Xun Yu smiled. "If you don't want it, I will donate the money I win to the academy in your name to buy medicinal herbs for the bath. Everyone can use them. The only condition I will propose to the school is that you have priority use rights. Of course, whether you use this right or not is up to you."

After Xun Yu finished speaking, he left without giving Ye Lingling a chance to reply.

"Why is this person talking so self-righteously?" Ye Lingling said helplessly. "Besides, he's far too confident, as if his prince is a sure winner. Tianheng is not a easy opponent."

"Who cares? Haha, two hundred thousand gold soul coins! As long as Tianheng puts in a good job, I'll be rich!" Oslo was still immersed in his dream of getting rich.

At this time, Nan Feihuang had returned to his dormitory to rest for a while and closed his eyes to meditate and cultivate.

The door opened, and Xun Yu walked in, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "My lord, I have a favor to ask of you."

Nan Feihuang opened his eyes. "So formal? Wenruo, given our relationship, we can just say what's on our mind. There's no need for this."

"My lord, I fell in love at first sight with Miss Ye Lingling, whom I met today, and I want to pursue her," Xun Yu said frankly.

Upon hearing this, Nan Feihuang laughed and said, "Oh, what's the use of telling me? If you like it, go after him yourself. I never meddle in other people's relationship problems, whether they break up or stay together, and I won't stop you."

"Right now, all I care about is the immortal herb. You can handle your personal matters yourself. I can't help you with matters between men and women. Just don't seek out a 100,000-year-old soul beast to transform into human form, or I'm afraid I won't be able to resist destroying her soul ring and soul bone in the future."

"Well, my lord, don't worry, Miss Ye is definitely a real human being. I don't need your help, I only have one request. Although I've enrolled in the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, I'm only your companion, not a true noble. I'm just a commoner who has just escaped slavery. That's far inferior to Miss Ye. Could you give me a noble title from the Kingdom of Gulei?" Xun Yu wasn't usually one to care about fame and fortune, but at this moment, in order to be a good match for Ye Lingling, he had no choice but to be shameless.

Nan Feihuang said with difficulty, "Wenruo, it's easy to give you a noble status, and I'd be very happy to do so. But under what name? In terms of rank, you're not yet eligible for the title of noble. In terms of contributions to the Kingdom of Gulei, you're not even ten years old and haven't done anything significant. I can't convince the court either. This world isn't a place where I can control everything just because I'm the crown prince."

"Rest assured, my lord, I will not make things difficult for you. Once I have rendered a small service to the kingdom, I will be granted the title of baron, which will convince everyone in the court." Xun Yu said confidently. It was just a matter of making a contribution; it was no problem for him.
