Yue Yang’s seemingly crazy intention to use the Thorny Flower to go to Star’s Domain in order to Refine and do missions caused the warriors in the Mercenary Guild to start betting.
The odds of Yue Yang being able to use the Thorny Flower to successfully clear the obstacles and finish the Refinings, was 10,000 to 1.
However, no one dared to bet on his success.
No one there was an idiot. Everyone there was more willing to throw gold coins into the violent, stormy sea than to place a bet on this kind of crazy act that would never succeed. No one would bet on someone’s success in Refining, even if the odds were above 100 to 1, guaranteeing that they made no loss. The third type of bet was that Yue Yang would be able to sustain the Refining process for more than 10 minutes, and the odds on that were also as high as 50 to 1. Seeing this, Yue Yang’s eyes shone with a greedy light, but the Mercenary Guild prohibited him from betting on himself, causing Yue Yang to sigh inwardly about his penniless life.
If they had allowed him to take part, then Yue Yang would have definitely bet all his money on his success in clearing the obstacle and Refining, with the odds of 10,000 to 1. In the blink of an eye, he could have become a millionaire.
"Who said he can’t sustain for 10 minutes? I have a method." Once Ye Kong said this, everyone was startled for an instant, before they immediately started heckling him.
"You’re crazy too!" There were some who directly judged Ye Kong to be crazy as well.
"No way, you’re preparing to let him challenge the ‘Twelve Zodiac Temples’? For goodness’ sake, is there anything more crazy than this on Earth? I thought that my writing a letter to the Princess to ask for her hand in marriage all those years ago was already crazy enough, but I never thought that there would be someone more crazy and foolish than me…" A mercenary captain muttered to himself despondently and no one knew when the wine cup in his hand had already dropped on the ground.
"I’d rather go steal a giant dragon’s egg than go and challenge the Twelve Zodiac Temples." A thief’s face was filled with terror, and ‘If anyone makes me challenge it I’ll go commit suicide’ was written all over his face.
"Are the Twelve Zodiac Temples that scary?" Yue Yang’s knowledge of the twelve zodiacs temples was limited to Saint Seiya, only knowing that the twelve zodiac temples were protected by 12 Gold Saints. It couldn’t be that this level of the Tong Tian Tower’s Twelve Zodiac Temples also had Gold Saints in them?
"Scary? How can you use a puerile word like scary to describe it? That’s terrifying, extremely terrifying." Many warriors became dizzy at Yue Yang’s words.
"Nn?" Yue Yang inwardly thought, it couldn’t be that there really were Gold Saints inside there?
"The Twelve Zodiac Temples are the continuous missions in Star’s Domain, because you need to clear the obstacles 12 times, thus it’s called the Twelve Zodiac Temples. These Gold-ranked continuous missions are Tong Tian Tower’s highest difficulty level, no one under Level 5 has ever completed the Twelve Zodiac Temples. The record for humans was set over 10,000 years ago, when an anonymous warrior broke through to the 9th Temple, this pioneering work was also the pinnacle of human ability, after this nobody was able to catch up to this standard. In the last 1000 years, the highest level that has been cleared is the 5th Temple. In the last 100 years, only up to the 3rd Temple. In the last decade, no one has managed to clear the 1st Temple… The Twelve Zodiac Temples, in each Temple, there will definitely be a Golden King Beast guarding it, ordinary beasts that see it are all scared to the point that they become unable to move. It’s impossible to beat the Golden King Beast, much less break through to the next Temple." When Ye Kong mentioned the Golden King Beast, his lips started trembling. Yue Yang suddenly realised, it was because 2 years ago this fellow had ambitiously challenged the Twelve Zodiac Temples, but ended up suffering a crushing defeat, thus landing him in his current dire straits.
