"Although the soul banknotes have been converted into Soul Power stored within your soul, if you do not absorb it, you will not feel anything," Zhao Tian said.
"Mhm," Mu Rufeng nodded upon hearing this.
Next, he tentatively absorbed ten points of Soul Power.
Instantly, a refreshing sensation spread throughout his body, and he could feel that his soul seemed to have improved a bit.
Although it was just a little, he could sense this change.
"Indeed, it is a magical power." Mu Rufeng opened his eyes, his face wearing a faint smile.
"If Mr. Mu wishes to absorb some more, that's not a problem, you can go upstairs to open a rest room, it is quieter there, and absorption is faster," Zhao Tian suggested.
"That's not urgent, let's go have some fun first," Mu Rufeng said with a slight smile, and then headed towards the Corner Cage Area.
Soon, Mu Rufeng arrived at the first corner cage.
However, this corner cage was empty, and there were only ten in the entire Corner Cage Area.
At present, five were occupied with battles.
People surrounded each cage, and Mu Rufeng approached the nearest one, which also had the largest crowd.
Inside was a Level 5 Abnormality along with a Level 5 abnormal creature.
The two were engaged in a ferocious hand-to-hand combat.
"Long Hu, if you lose this time, I'm going to twist your head off."
"Beast Ghost, come on, eat up that guy."
A group of abnormalities was shouting loudly at the edge.
"This Beast Ghost and the abnormality are both quite strong," Mu Rufeng remarked as he watched the combatants.
"Naturally, that abnormality must be the challenger, challenging the Ghost Beast, if he wins, he will receive one-tenth of the wager placed on the Ghost Beast."
"If he loses, well, there's not much to be said, everything will belong to the house," Zhao Tian explained.
"Oh? You're saying you can play like that?" Mu Rufeng's eyes lit up.
"Yes, but very few people do that," Zhao Tian said.
"Is it still possible to place a bet now?" Mu Rufeng inquired.
"As long as the fight isn't over, you can place a bet, Mr. Mu, do you see that screen over there? You just need to release Soul Power and tap one of the contestants."
"The amount you want to wager is the amount you release. Right now, it seems to be just a matter of victory or defeat; both are still evenly matched with odds of one to one."
"As soon as there is a decisive change in the situation, the betting channel will be closed immediately," Zhao Tian explained.
Mu Rufeng did not speak and immediately used the "You Die, I Live" Skill.
Immediately, powerful energy emerged, but Mu Rufeng did not let his aura leak out, preserving his original presence.
[Strength]: 9364.3 (851.3+8513)
[Spirit]: 8244.5 (749.5+7495)
[Constitution]: 8222.5 (747.5+7475)
At this time, Mu Rufeng looked again towards the combatants.
Seconds later, he suddenly placed a bet of ten thousand Soul Power on the Ghost Beast.
Just then, a prompt sounded in Mu Rufeng's mind.
[Detected host entry into the instance, cheat loading successful]
[Please choose one of the following three cheats for the host to employ]
[1, Luck Bursting: Your Luck Value will be multiplied by ten]
[2, Gambling Skill MAX: Your overall gambling skills will become the best in the world]
[3, Unlucky Streak: You can decrease any target's Luck Value by ten times]
"This..." Mu Rufeng was slightly startled inside.
The cheats this time seemed, well, quite nice.
Almost without any hesitation, Mu Rufeng directly chose the first option, Luck Bursting.
This was going to multiply his Luck Value by ten times.
He glanced at it and immediately saw his Luck Value skyrocketing to 260 points.
An ordinary person only has around five, this was actually 52 times that.
But that wasn't all, Mu Rufeng then took out the "Gamblers' Dice" and rolled it.
[Rolling result is 6 points, Luck Value +6]
In an instant, Mu Rufeng's Luck Value soared another sixty points to 320.
Mu Rufeng then bet all the remaining ninety thousand Soul Power he had on the victory of the Beast Ghost.
"Mr. Mu, who are you betting on?" Zhao Tian asked.
"I'm betting on the Ghost Beast. If you want to make some money too, bet on the Ghost Beast," Mu Rufeng said.
"The Ghost Beast? Okay, then I'll bet ten... hundred," Zhao Tian bit his lip and wagered a hundred Soul Power on the Ghost Beast.
"I don't have much Soul Power left on me," Zhao Tian said, looking at Mu Rufeng, and immediately explained.
"Heh, if you want to earn more money, throw all that you have into it," Mu Rufeng said with a laugh.
"Mr. Mu, how much did you bet?" Zhao Tian did not reply but instead asked.
"I wagered a hundred thousand," Mu Rufeng said indifferently.
"A hundred... hundred thousand?" Zhao Tian was somewhat shocked.
She had truly never seen someone bet a hundred thousand Soul Power on their first wager.
"Mr. Mu, are you crazy?" Zhao Tian couldn't help but exclaim.
"Heh," Mu Rufeng chuckled, offering no reply.
Seeing that Zhao Tian was not willing to bet it all, Mu Rufeng did not continue to talk. After all, it was her own lack of grasp at a chance to get rich; no one else was to blame.
Although Mu Rufeng did not know who would ultimately win, as long as he placed a bet, whoever he bet on would certainly win.
Time gradually passed.
Inside the corner cage, the two collided once again.
This time, it was not evenly matched; for some reason, Long Hu was directly knocked flying.
Before people could react, they saw the Beast Ghost's previously severed tail regrow, and then it smashed heavily onto Long Hu's head.
