Chapter 3082
They could not possibly enter the Whirling World relying solely on their skills. Yet, with those rules in place, the stronger warriors could bring a weaker alchemist with them, traversing the cities of the Whirling World.
Right after he figured that out, Arne made his choice on the stage as well. Of the five beasts in the air, he pointed at the one in the middle.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Fane was stunned when he looked at it. He had not looked at the five beasts earlier since he was wrapped up in his thoughts. Now that he looked over, Fane was surprised to notice that he only recognized one out of the five beasts, and the one Arne picked happened to be the one he recognized.
"It's a rockwind snake," he remarked.
Fane let out a snort as a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes. At that moment, the masked caretaker announced that the betting area would be opened. Everyone interested in placing bets could head over.
Fane silently stood up and brought Rudy to the betting area. Fane and Rudy both took out a million spirit crystals each and betted them on the beast. No one was surprised at Fane's choice at all, seeing as these two men were both at odds. It would be far too strange if Fane bet on Arne. After placing the bets, Fane did not plan on going back to the spectator stands at all with how noisy it was. He did not want to listen to all the noise and constant discussions.
Fane pulled Rudy to a corner of the betting area. "Let's just wait here. The battle should be ending quite soon. Then, we can just get our spirit crystals and head to the middle."
Rudy looked at Fane curiously. Even though Rudy felt like Arne would lose, he did not think that he would lose that quickly. However, Fane's words seemed to imply that Arne would not just fail to win the first round but would lose terribly as well.
Fane immediately knew what was on Rudy's mind when he saw Rudy's expression. He laughed as he explained patiently, "That guy chose a rockwind snake, a beast much stronger than a frostfire wolf.

Rudy immediately understood after Fane's explanation. That was why Fane was so sure that the battle would end very quickly. If the rockwind snake was stronger than the frostfire wolf, then Arne was about to lose horribly!
There was not much reason to
return to the stands, and they would not need to listen to those discussions. The results were just as Fane said. The battle had only lasted for less than five minutes before the results were out.
Arne had been bitten by the snake, and its venom spread throughout his whole body. Arne suffered from a horrendously painful death, spasming on the stage for a long time before he succumbed.
The disciples from the Deer Pavilion were thrown into chaos. Too much had happened on that day. They had lost two chosen disciples and lost a lot of spirit crystals to boot.
When Fane activated the black iron bet, all of them had bet at least half a million on the beasts. Their spirit crystals were lost to that.
With Arne's black iron bet, they had betted on Arne as well. After all, there was no way they could bet on the beast since they were from the same clan. Even then, they lost!
