Grand Ancestral Bloodlines-Chapter 1716 Different Forms

The giant flaming woman's body shook and trembled. This time, it wasn't because she was trying to take her axes back. She realized at that moment that there was no point. The strength gap between the two of them was so enormous that there simply was no chance at all.

If Ryu was simply cultivation realms above her own, then she would be able to accept it. In that case, this was just the way of the Nether Plane. She had been different forms of a slave before, this arena was just one form of it. Selling her life and death to make others money and allow her to improve, that was the kind of line she had been walking for a long time.

However... she had always thought herself to be no weaker than those top geniuses, she just lacked a chance and an opportunity.

But Ryu crushed all of that. She fell to her knees, her head lowering and her raging blue flames died down, almost looking like hair right after it was soaked through.

"Good," Ryu said plainly. Then, without much fanfare, his eyes flashed and a portal appeared around the flaming giant woman, taking her into the world of his Heavenly Pupils. fre enovelkiss.com

The moment this happened, everyone in the arena stood to their feet, their hearts beating out of their chests.

Heavenly Pupils!

They were both shocked and accepting of the reality at the same time. It was no wonder. There wasn't a single existence that wielded Heavenly Pupils that wasn't an absolute monster. Even those ranked outside the top ten were no exception. There were only a few dozen Heavenly Pupils passed down through the generations, and each one was a monstrous existence of its own.

For those people, climbing cultivation Realms to do battle wasn't a surprise, it was a requirement.

When Elise got the news, she frowned. She should have known, she knew that she should have known. Like she had said before, how the hell could a Dragon travel with a normal male companion? They had to be a monster worthy of their companionship.

She took a breath. 'This is fine as well, though. Even if the Dragon doesn't fight, wouldn't this be a huge opportunity nonetheless? Who wouldn't want to see the might of Heavenly Pupils.'

She bit her lip for a bit, thinking of what to do. Then, she looked up.

"Send out a Peak True Sky God."

The butler's eyes widened, but this time he didn't refute.

What surprised them, though, was that none of it mattered.

Every time they sent out another expert, Ryu would take his time, dragging out the fight and seemingly using the opponent to sharpen himself. Then, when he was done with them, he would directly kill them.

By the time he made it to 10 consecutive victories, the remuneration jumped from 10,000 Nether Crystals to 20,000. The ten thousand increment jumps became a mainstay until one reached 20 consecutive victories, whereupon it would jump up by 100,000 Nether Crystal increments.

The reality was that these rules were set in place mostly as an unattainable dream, to stoke the flames of the crowd a bit and get them excited. In truth, the betting arena had never thought that they'd have to use these incentive models at all.

It could be said that Elise was sharp. By the time Ryu started clearing the 10,000 increment challenges, his opponents were already Perfect Sky Gods. And yet, the result was much the same.

Soon, he made it to 20 consecutive victories.

By this point, Elise was truly feeling the weight of it all. Although Ryu had made 100,000 Lower Nether Crystals by this point, what was that to the life of a True Sky God? Let alone a Perfect Sky God?

Just raising someone to the Fragmented Sky God Realm would likely take a few dozen Nether Crystals depending on their talent. Beyond that, the changes were astronomical. It wouldn't take less than 10,000 to raise a False Sky God and it would certainly take more than 100,000 to raise a True Sky God.

Of course, this money was spent over time, so it didn't feel as exaggerated. But when it was laid out like this, it truly wasn't worth it at all.

The trouble was that Ryu had already killed 10 Perfect Sky Gods and he showed no sign of stopping. This was enough to cost the betting arena upward of 10 to 20 million Nether Crystals. In fact, for experts at that level, they would already begin counting their spending habits with Middle Nether Crystals, making it worse.

In the end, she had no choice but to stop it here.

There was a reason she had let it get as bad as 10 deaths of that caliber. If she didn't let Ryu vent some of his frustration and allowed it to fester, they could suffer an even more severe blow.

Essentially, she let Ryu kill those 10 Perfect Sky Gods so that he wouldn't continue to seek trouble with them when she cut off the well of funds. She didn't even say anything about Ryu taking the giant woman even though she was one of their prized fighters. She could only hope that this advertisement would help them recoup the loss in the future.

She walked out with an embarrassed smile on her face.

"Young master is truly a king amongst men," Elise spoke, and her beauty caught the attention of many as she stood high above on a platform. "I'm sorry to say that Perfect Sky Gods are no match for the young hero, and our Transcendent Sky Gods are usually booked well in advance. As compensation, I can directly give the young master 10,000,000 Lower Nether Crystals. I hope this is enough."

Ryu looked up at her and smiled. This girl was smart. Since she had said as much, there really was no need.

"Alright, I accept," he nodded.

BOOM!

At that moment, a Fire Giant landed in the arena. When others looked up, they found an enormous hole in the chain protecting everyone.

Ferouge grinned wildly. "Your eyes. I want them."
