1463 Families Should Stay Together! (2)

Olivia took out all her money to bet on w.a.n.g Teng, along with the money her mother gave her.

Now, the entire Cavendish family had boarded w.a.n.g Teng’s s.h.i.+p.

Families should stay together!

Elsewhere, at the same timeWu Xingyun, Old Han, and the others placed their bets on w.a.n.g Teng too. They didn’t have much money, but that didn’t stop them from spending all their fortune.

Even Lin Chuhan, who was traveling with the Battle Hearth Mercenary Team, had secretly bet all her money on w.a.n.g Teng. Her trust in him was immense.

It was a pity that her team was completely unaware.

They didn’t understand the young hero; all they knew was his strange performance during the elimination round.

That wasn’t enough for them to place their hard-earned UCs on an unknown person.

Isah and some of the mercenaries had even placed bets on Ling Yangxu.

After all, the latter’s performance was more outstanding in their eyes.

They weren’t the only ones who thought along those lines. Most had made bets, some on w.a.n.g Teng and others on Ling Yangxu.

It was just like a football match. The audience felt they understood a team well, and would feel tempted to bet on them.

Of course, there were those who wanted to become rich overnight. Most people just wanted to earn some money.

Unfortunately, winning wasn’t guaranteed. Their fortune could dissipate, to then commit collective suicide

Much to everyone’s surprise, w.a.n.g Teng’s clone in Zone 7 reached first place. The original holder of the top position was a talent from the Rodriguez family called Carpenter.

It was the Rodriguez’ turn to feel frustrated. They had taken great pains to groom those talents; they hoped they could make a spectacular debut in the League of Talents.

Who would have thought that w.a.n.g Teng would mess up their plan.

Second place would never be as eye-catching as first place. The chances of them entering the Seven Stellar Academies would be lower after descending to the second spot.

Zone 2.

Everyone was focusing on w.a.n.g Teng and Ling Yangxu.

However, being the parties concerned, those two didn’t know what was going on, so they kept on killing star beasts at their own pace.

w.a.n.g Teng searched for the Parkers but he couldn’t find them.

Five days pa.s.sed. It was getting closer to the end of the elimination round.

w.a.n.g Teng’s rank in Zone 2 had risen to no. 13. The climb was significant.

Ling Yangxu remained in first place.

This gap made people worry. Not much time was left. Is w.a.n.g Teng able to catch up?

“w.a.n.g Teng is quite unlucky. He hasn’t met any of the Parkers people for a while.”

“Hmph, making use of others is just a shortcut!”

“Ignorant. He only knows how to use brute force. Shortcut? w.a.n.g Teng is using his brain!”

“Being brainless is scary!”

“Why are you blaming others when you’re an idiot?”

“Do you think anyone can duplicate w.a.n.g Teng’s tactics? His concealing method is powerful, and is able to kill star beasts without anyone noticing. Can others do this?”

“Hmph. Let’s see what he’ll do if he doesn’t meet another warrior from the Parkers soon.”

“Wait, a warrior from the Parkers met Ling Yangxu!”

Above a plain in Zone 2jagged bolts of lightning ripped across the sky. Lightning element star beasts danced across the horizon.

Ling Yangxu and the Parkers’ fellow met there; both had their eyes on a Thunderhorn Antelope herd.

The group of beasts was huge. The creatures roamed the plains, nibbling on various lightning-element spiritual gra.s.s, unaware of the imminent danger.

The two figures hovered in the sky while exchanging glances. Compet.i.tiveness flashed in their eyes.

The Parkers’ fellow held Zone 2’s third place. He was a strong contender for the first position.

Hence, none of them would allow the other to attack the gigantic antelope herd.

The latter held a giant battle blade in each hand. Flames surrounded them, forming a glow on their edges. He lunged forth with powerful thrusts, the tips of his blades aimed at the grazing creatures.

The Thunderhorn Antelopes weren’t feeble herbivores with no combat abilities. Their lightning talent was formidable; that is why they immediately noticed the violent Force fluctuation in the sky. All the herd was alerted.

The antelopes bleated.

Grunts were heard as sparks of lightning started flas.h.i.+ng fiercely on their two sharp horns.

Lightning cracked like whips, illuminating the antelopes faces.

Then, the bolts congregated to form a spike that streaked across the sky, heading straight for the Parkers’ warrior.

Bang

Explosions roared like a hundred cannons, shaking the earth and shattering the sword attack launched by the Parkers fellow.

There were many antelopes; their combined attack was terrifying.

“What?” The warrior was shocked.

The antelopes cried again.

Another grunt was heard. Lightning started gathering once more, reading another attack for the human enemy.

The warrior from the Parkers was appalled. He wanted to evade the attack.

But, just at that moment

Ling Yangxu blinked. He raised his long purple spear high in the air, attracting lightning Force for a move of his own. It cracked in the air surrounding the weapon.

Boom!

The long spear went down in a stabbing motion, sending a web of lightning at the Thunderhorn Antelopes.

Above him was a lightning net, while below was the Thunderhorn Antelope’s attack. Basically stuck between a rock and a hard place.

“You!” The warrior’s expression changed. His face turned gloomy, but there was no time to waste. He hurried to escape the attacking range.

It was too late, though. The antelope’s attack coming from below reached him, piercing a b.l.o.o.d.y hole in his abdomen.

Swoop! Boom!

The Parkers’ warrior shuddered. Black smoke and blood spurted out from his mouth.

If he wasn’t bald, his hair would have stood on end.

Ling Yangxu suddenly stopped the lightning net from falling and said calmly, “I’m sorry. I didn’t see you.”

“Pfft!” The Parkers fellow widened his eyes in disbelief, staring bitterly at the other contestant while vomiting another mouthful of blood. Although unwilling, he gave up and disappeared from Zone 2.

“Erm”

“Who said Ling Yangxu doesn’t know how to use his brain?”

“Oh my!”

“I didn’t expect him to pull such a sneaky move. I mean, he looks so righteous!”

“Don’t you think that the Parkers guy is pitiful? He didn’t clash with w.a.n.g Teng, but he met an equally evil Ling Yangxu.”

“Gasp, I can feel the pain just by looking at the wound!”
