There were no words to describe the fury in Golden Ox's heart.
He was about to explode from anger.
Golden Ox had a rough understanding of Qin Yu's strength. Although Qin Yu had only used the Allheaven Steps and Astral Killing Formation when he challenged the major forces a year ago, Golden Ox knew that Qin Yu still had trump cards up his sleeves. At the very least, he hadn't used that saber strike yet.
However, Golden Ox could also tell that Qin Yu had comprehended something during the battle … Therefore, he was even more certain that Qin Yu had obtained the 'inheritance' from that place. It wasn't a long time ago, and he was trying to comprehend that inheritance during the battle!
Based on Golden Ox's estimation of Qin Yu, Qin Yu's strength was indeed not bad. He should have some confidence in defeating the Dao Ghosts of any realm in the outer city of Eternity … Even if he wasn't as strong, with Hao Junchen around, he would at most be beaten up.
To be honest, Golden Ox couldn't wait for Qin Yu to be beaten up and humiliated … However, this time, the influx of battle spirits made Golden Ox somewhat worried.
The strength of battle spirits wasn't something that the Heavenly Ghosts could compare to. Once a battle spirit was interested in playing with Qin Yu … Qin Yu wouldn't have a good ending … Qin Yu might even be toyed to death by the battle spirits.
Therefore, Golden Ox changed his mind and let Xiao Niu take the lead to challenge Qin Yu. This way … Qin Yu would retreat in the face of difficulties, and he could also humiliate Qin Yu. This was the best of both worlds.
But now, Qin Yu's words had completely disrupted Huang Jinniu's plan … It could be said that Qin Yu's words had rendered Huang Jinniu powerless …
Not to mention Qin Yu's strength and how many people he could defeat, if there were too many Soul Blood Essence Stones, there would definitely be battle spirits participating in this battle. Moreover … they would definitely bid for the final spot.
It wasn't that they believed that Qin Yu truly had the strength to fight his way to the end. Rather, they held a playful attitude. As long as Qin Yu could defeat the several dozen people in front of him, they wouldn't mind defeating Qin Yu. This way, not only could they deter all the Heavenly Ghosts, they could also earn a large number of Soul Blood Essence Stones. Why not?
"You overestimate yourself, you're simply courting death!!"
Golden Ox roared in a low voice. He was a little restless. He still wanted to get clues from Qin Yu to go back, but Qin Yu was simply courting death. How could Golden Ox not be anxious?
After pondering for a long time, Golden Ox suddenly turned to look at Hao Junchen and said, "How many Soul Blood Essence Stones do you have?
Take them all out and compete to be the first to challenge this boy. Otherwise, this guy will die without a doubt! "
Hao Junchen also recovered from his shock. He naturally knew the consequences of Qin Yu's words. Hearing Golden Ox's words, Hao Junchen's face stiffened. He said, "I've already divided my Soul Blood Essence Stones among the four of them … I don't have many Soul Blood Essence Stones on me right now … I'll immediately send someone to get some." After saying this, Hao Junchen hurriedly stood up.
"It's too late!" Golden Ox said in a low voice.
Not to mention how many Soul Blood Essence Stones Hao Junchen could gather, even if he did, the first challenge spot would have already been auctioned.
"Then what should we do?" Hao Junchen was startled.
"If this boy is killed, can we collect his remnant soul?" Golden Ox whispered.
Hao Junchen looked at Golden Ox doubtfully. "You mean to say that you want to recreate a Heavenly Ghost?"
This kind of situation did exist, but the success rate was not high. One reason was that being killed meant that the remnant soul would be shattered again, and the next time it would be condensed … it was hard to say whose remnant soul would be the dominant one.
Golden Ox did not speak. He did not want to recreate a Heavenly Ghost body for Qin Yu, but wanted to obtain Qin Yu's memories … Only in this way could he find clues to return.
"Let's talk about this later. I'll go gather some Soul Blood Essence Stones first." Hao Junchen pondered for a moment, but was still unwilling to let Qin Yu die in battle. He hurriedly left.
At the same time.
After a short period of silence, the entire arena exploded.
"What an insolent person. Does he think that the countless Dao Ghosts of Eternal Life Outer City can do nothing to him?"
"How insolent must he be to say such arrogant words??"
"What kind of background does this person have?
He's actually so arrogant. Not only is he provoking the Eternal Life Outer City, but he's also provoking the battle spirits of the inner city … He's really courting death!! "
"How ignorant is this person to say such arrogant words at such a special time??"
"Do you think … there will be a battle spirit???"
Not only the arena, but even the people outside the arena were in an uproar. Ridicule and mockery formed a sound wave that rushed into the sky. It could be said that no one was optimistic about Qin Yu's chances, and all of them thought that Qin Yu was extremely ignorant.
Just as the crowd was not optimistic about Qin Yu's chances, Qin Yu looked at the thousands of restless Heavenly Ghosts in front of him, and then swept his gaze across the huge arena. He raised his voice and said, "Since you can't select a hundred people, then let's start the bidding for the first challenge …"
Everyone was dumbfounded. What … what was this?
Wasn't this a challenge?
Why did it become an auction??
"Today, I want to see what qualifications a mere early-stage Dao Ghost has to challenge any Dao Ghost of any realm!!"
A cold voice rang out. A late-stage Dao Ghost released his aura and walked in front of Qin Yu.
"Scram, he's mine!" A peak Dao Ghost pushed the late-stage Dao Ghost away.
"I'm the fourth young master of the Chu Clan, Chu Shan. He's mine …" Another Dao Ghost also released his aura and said loudly.
"The Chu Clan is nothing … I'm …"
Just like that, the thousands of Dao Ghosts in front of Qin Yu turned the sky upside down. Three hundred Soul Blood Essence Stones was a huge sum for any Heavenly Ghost.
Because of the battle a year ago, everyone had a rough understanding of Qin Yu's strength. They were extremely confident that they could defeat Qin Yu, so … why would they back down?
Moreover, if they backed down, wouldn't they be giving up the three hundred Soul Blood Essence Stones?
It had to be said that the reason everyone was so crazy was most likely because of the battle a year ago.
In other words, Qin Yu had already calculated the current situation. This was also the reason why he had only used the Allheaven Steps and the Astral Slaughter Formation at that time. It was to create a misconception. Otherwise, how could he have defeated those people a year ago with just the Astral Slaughter Formation?
However, even so, there were still people who were watching from the sidelines.
"Since everyone is fighting over it, let's start the auction for the first spot. The highest bidder will be the first challenger. The starting price is ten Soul Blood Essence Stones!"
"I'll bid twenty!" A Dao Ghost roared.
"Thirty …"
"Ninety!"
The price soared wildly under everyone's dumbfounded gazes.
"A bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well. You're being led by the nose by a mere early-stage Dao Ghost. Do you think you're on the same level as us Battle Spirits?
Scram, I'll test this person's strength first. If anyone isn't convinced, you're welcome to fight! "
