Chapter 329 - A Bet
...Duanmu Peak, on top of the mountain...
The other two Peak Leaders of the Qinglong Sacred Area could no longer sit tight as they uttered a roar, "Feiyang Sacred Area, what do you guys mean? Do you guys really plan to acquire all of the geniuses?"
"Humph! Your Peak Leader Duanmu promised to give Jiao Zhe to the Feiyang Sacred Area. Are you going back on your words now?" The Peak Leader of the Feiyang Sacred Area snapped.
The two Peak Leaders of the Qinglong Sacred Area held their breaths; even the newly arrived Peak Leader was startled as he gazed at Peak Leader Duanmu.
"My words are as solid as a thousand gold. Jiao Zhe is yours!" Peak Leader Duanmu spoke in a calm tone. A result of five hundred and ninety-nine Dao-Seeking Fish was indeed impressive, but he was extremely confident that these bunch of Peak Leaders of the Feiyang Sacred Area will be regretful to the max after Qin Nan took his turn.
"Duanmu——"
The three Peak Leaders of the Qinglong Sacred Area were left speechless.
They could still accept giving up on Jiao Shiyi, but this Jiao Zhe was someone who had attracted five hundred and ninety-nine Dao-Seeking Fish; a rare talented genius, How could they give up so easily?
The words of the Peak Leaders were made clear to the envoys below too, who were immersed in a chatter.
"HAHAHA! Jiao Zhe belongs to our Feiyang Sacred Area!"
"What the f**k, how is that possible? Why would Peak Leader Duanmu give him to you guys?"
"What’s going on? Why would Peak Leader Duanmu give up on a genius like Jiao Zhe!"
"……"
In comparison to the uproar taking place at the Duanmu Peak, the dojo encapsulated within the barrier was relatively quiet. The geniuses were utterly stunned by the sight before them, and were left speechless on the spot.
"Jiao Shiyi, see that?"
Jiao Zhe slowly rose from the ground and spoke.
"I——"
Jiao Shiyi’s face turned pale.
He had not expected his elder brother to attract five hundred and ninety-nine Dao-Seeking Fish, ninety more than him!
What shall I do now; do I really have to obey every word Jiao Zhe says from today onward?
"I, Jiao Shiyi, am a man of my words, and I’ll never regret what I said!"
Jiao Shiyi’s figure trembled as he said while clenched his teeth, as if the words were forced out from the gap between his teeth.
It was impossible to imagine what his life would be without Jiang Bilan, but he had already uttered an oath just then. Despite the pain in his heart, he had no choice but to fulfill his promise!
"Bilan!"
Jiao Shiyi turned around and glanced at Jiang Bilan, but before he said anything, he realized that Jiang Bilan’s gaze was focused on Qin Nan’s figure, which made him feel that he was suffocating, as if his soul was being grabbed by a giant hand.
"Sigh!"
Jiao Zhe shook his head and let out a sigh after seeing this.
The crowd collected their thoughts and glanced at both Jiao Zhe and Jiao Shiyi with utter respect. Although they were not clear on the conflict between these two brothers, their results were enough to conquer the scene, causing them to feel slightly jealous.
"Damn it, my turn now!"
"Let’s see how many Dao-Seeking Fish I can attract!"
"……"
The geniuses turned incredibly passionate, as they took turns taking the trial with great anticipation.
As for Jiao Shiyi, he continued to stare at Jiang Bilan, whose gaze was locked onto Qin Nan’s figure.
