Chapter 780 - Wager
Before the match began, the audience began to place their bets.
Everyone came to the Dark Arena for two reasons. The first was to earn rare materials and top-tier equipment. The second was to watch an exciting battle.
As soon as the two battle teams stepped into the dueling ring, everyone began searching for information regarding the team members and placing their bets based on what they found.
The audience was shocked by what they found.
“Why does this Asura Battle Team consist of members from a small Guild?”
“Just who established the Asura Battle Team? Have they lost their mind? Aside from Aqua Rose, who has some fame, the other members are nobodies! So what if they’re somewhat famous in Star-Moon Kingdom; do they think they can win the competition with such low standards? Are they taking the Dark Arena seriously? Or can the Asura Battle Team not afford to hire even a few famous experts?”
“With such a battle team, the Glorious Lions would find it hard to lose even if they wanted to. It seems the Glorious Lions will win their third match in a row.”
Once the audience members read what information had been collected on Zero Wing, they couldn’t believe their own eyes.
Although Zero Wing was not weak, it was not particularly strong, either. Black Flame was the only notable figure in the Guild. However, there was no sign of Black Flame. Moreover, none of the members had even set foot into the Realms of Refinement.
Their equipment might rank at the top in their kingdom, but what did that matter in the Dark Arena?
The Dark Arena was the hub for God’s Domain’s top powers. Top-tier equipment in a kingdom was nothing in this place. One could see this much just by looking at Glorious Lions’ leader, Everlasting War.
Everlasting War wore a complete Level 35 Fine-Gold Set Equipment, the current-best Set Equipment in God’s Domain. It was significantly stronger than a Level 30 Dark-Gold Set Equipment. Everything else the man wore was Level 35 Dark-Gold Equipment as well. He was also fully equipped with Tier 3 Gemstones.
As for Zero Wing’s members, they had not replaced their equipment since Level 30. They were no match for Everlasting War.
“They dare call themselves Asura with such members? This is a joke. If Black Flame made an appearance, the show might be interesting, but it seems that Black Flame has allowed his Guild members to venture off on their own. Bet on the Glorious Lions. Although many will bet on them as well, a small profit is still profit.”
Many among the audience could not help but sigh with disappointment at the lost chance to make a fortune. However, Gentle Snow’s excitement grew as she watched this development.
“Hehe! Sure enough, none of them know about that incident!” Zhao Yueru giggled as she watched the other audience members place their bets on the Glorious Lions.
“Alright, stop laughing. We only discovered it by coincidence,” Gentle Snow strictly reprimanded her companion.
Although plenty of information about the war in the Stoneclaw Mountains had leaked, most of this information came from independent players who had watched from afar. At such a great distance, nobody had been able to get a clear recording of the apex battle between Zero Wing and the Flower of Seven Sins. Moreover, only a few of the Star Alliance’s upper echelons knew about the Flower of Seven Sins striking out against Zero Wing. The other Guilds had no idea about the assassination attempts. They only knew that the Star Alliance had hired experts to deal with Zero Wing’s upper echelons.
