CHAPTER 768: CHAPTER 471: FIGHT!

So this means the guild doesn’t make any profit at all? Not exactly, because everyone participating in the betting has to pay a certain fee, which, though not much, adds up to a huge amount of Combat Points with enough people. Once back in the guild, they use other methods to control the balance of the Adventure Coin currency across the guild... It’s a vast system, and Sui Yi didn’t ponder over it too deeply—all he needed to do was to ascertain the specific details of the fighting match.

"Where’s the fighting match taking place?"

"At the end of the passage on the left..."

When Sui Yi had finished all the procedures, he stood up and walked towards the portal at the end of the left corridor, noticing many people moving back and forth there.

At the end of the corridor, the lighting was too dim to see clearly, and it was silent and soundless, leaving what lay beyond a mystery...

Following a few others, Sui Yi stepped through that dim door...

Whoosh!

A wave of hot air hit her face, carrying strong scents of alcohol, various barbecued foods, or the smell of sweat... The intense odors mixed with the roiling and noisy crowd, packed together and resembling a frenzied bar, but in fact, it was a huge fighting arena.

The Underground Martial Arts Arena.

This was the main hall area, with only one fighting stage,

There happened to be two people engaging in combat on the stage, while the crowd around them was shouting. Sui Yi only needed a glance to gauge that the strength of the two combatants was about on par with Yhan Qingwu and the Flower Demon...

The fight was fierce, with severe injuries already, but neither was willing to back down.

The scent of blood was strong, but the surrounding crowd seemed even more excited.

This fighting arena was certainly dangerous, yet the Flower Demon hadn’t mentioned it. Had she forgotten? It was more likely that she did it on purpose.

Because it was too dangerous. For Sui Yi, it was fine, but for Gong Jiu, who had his head filled with thoughts of aggressive shortcuts, he would definitely opt for fighting matches to advance in levels. It was manageable at levels G and F, but once at levels E, D, or even C, accidents might occur.

Moreover... with a quick glance around, Sui Yi noticed that many people had been giving her hostile and almost naked stares as she walked by.

It was pretty direct.

Some people were already getting up and coming towards her.

But Sui Yi had already reached the front desk of the hall’s administrator.

"I need to apply for a fighting match"

"If it’s a Ranked Combat match, please go to the combat management room on the left and use the computer to enter the combat system to select an opponent. If it’s a personal combat match, you can come here with another person and we’ll arrange a fair combat agreement,"

Personal? That must be like the two people we just saw.

Sui Yi nodded, "Thank you."

She entered the management room, where computers were mounted on the walls; there were about a hundred machines, with forty to fifty people operating them. She picked an unoccupied one, inserted her Suo Emblem, and booted it up.

The screen’s information was easy to understand. Sui Yi fiddled with it for a bit and quickly learned how to operate it. Soon after, she chose to submit an application for three G-level Ranked Combats, and there was an option to choose either ’immediate’ or ’awaiting’. ’Awaiting’ meant waiting for the system to select the strongest member from all the G-level guild members for combat—as long as the other party agrees. ’Immediate’ was the quickest. The selection would only target members present at the London Region’s arena at the moment, but the opponent might not necessarily be G-level. If the G-level present were too weak, the intelligent system could skip over them and match you with an F-level member instead.

This type of arrangement was the most dangerous, which was why few people chose immediate combat...

But Sui Yi looked at her watch and selected immediate combat, then...

She submitted combat applications for all five levels: G, F, E, D, C.

The system issued three red warnings which Sui Yi confirmed. The system stopped reminding her and finalized the arrangements...

In under three seconds, details for fifteen combats appeared, with no doubt about the opponents, including their names and levels.

The earlier ones were fine...but among the three C-level matches, two opponents were B-level.

It was hard to say whether she was lucky or unlucky.

Sui Yi just furrowed her brow and selected confirm.

"Your Ranked Combat arena is now being prepared. Please proceed to combat room number 15 for the G-level, where the first match will begin in three minutes. All subsequent matches will be held in room number 15 as well,"

The other Ranked Combats were scheduled similarly, with fifteen matches spreading across five combat rooms...

Sui Yi retrieved her Suo Emblem and shut down the system.

And headed towards combat room number 15.

At that moment, someone in room number 15 had already leapt onto the stage laughing and shouted at the burly white man who had just stepped down, "Ham, seems like my luck’s better than yours, some newbie rookie challenged me, easy two Combat Points for grab!~"
