Now the eyes of the person in charge of the Sea Ghost really did turn completely black.
Even if you beat him to death, he couldn't possibly pay the amount Gu Xi mentioned! And if this matter gets reported to the higher-ups, then today's challenge is over.
Not only are they not doing their jobs well, but the customers who come here are going to cause a huge uproar.
It would be a great loss if so many deep-sea creatures held a grudge against the Shanghai Ghost.
"So? Have you made up your mind?" Gu Xi asked casually, since she wasn't in a hurry. If she couldn't succeed today, she could try again tomorrow.
Sea Ghost Leader: "We...we can't possibly use that many gold coins on our own."
"Hey, that's not a problem at all!" Gu Xi pointed to the audience seats over there.
“I’m a challenge participant and can’t participate in the audience betting. You can use these 1,000 gold coins to bet on us winning, and then you’ll have the gold coins.”
After hearing Gu Xi's words, the person in charge of the Sea Ghost was startled.
"No, that won't do. We have rules that prohibit Sea Ghosts from engaging in arena business."
"You've been doing this for so long, you must know a few deep-sea creatures, right? Why don't you have them do this for you? What, do I have to teach you this kind of thing?"
Gu Xi's words seemed to open a window for Hai Youling.
Yes, it knows several deep-sea creatures, and it lets them...
Before Hai Youling could fully open the skylight, Gu Xi said something else.
"Oh, by the way, before you do something like this, remember to report it to your superior and say that you have no other choice."
The sea ghost asked naively, "Why?"
"What else could it be! Of course it's bad to break the rules like this! If you get caught and thrown out of the Sea Ghost Clan, wouldn't I be ruining your life!"
Upon hearing this, the sea ghost closed the skylight; its lines flowed, and its voice was strangely moving.
"You are the most honored guest ever!"
They really considered everything for it!
Gu Xi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Go quickly."
The leader of the Sea Ghost was about to drift away when Gu Xi suddenly called out to it before it left.
"By the way, how much did we win in the bet? If it's less than 10,000, you'll have to add more money."
The person in charge of Sea Ghost was full of confidence: "Don't worry!"
These words weren't just directed at Gu Xi, but also at the creature itself. After all, it had just witnessed the Ice Shield Fish's power and couldn't imagine it losing.
Shortly after the Sea Ghost leader left, another announcement came from within the space that the challenge was about to begin.
The Sea Ghost receptionist, who had just been thawed, stayed behind with trepidation and began explaining the details and procedures to Gu Xi and Ai Si.
After a series of procedures, it was Ai Si's turn to appear.
Gu Xi stood on tiptoe, intending to pat Ai Si on the shoulder to remind him to be careful, but Ai Si was too tall, so he could only poke Ai Si's shoulder with his finger.
"Ais, it's all yours now!"
Ais glanced nonchalantly at the lower middle arena. "Pfft! I won't kill it."
Gu Xi nodded with relief: "It's good that you know."
Ais deliberately made himself an ice step, which appeared when he stepped on it and disappeared when he left.
The shouts from the crowd ceased the moment he stepped onto the field. Whispers gradually began to circulate.
"That's the Ice Shield Fish?"
"Never heard of it?"
"One ice, one fire, this is going to be interesting."
"They're all SS-rank, so the fight is bound to be fierce."
"I wonder if the Sea Ghost's territory can withstand the attack?"
"What's there to worry about? They're obviously new here. There are SS battles all the time in the Sea Ghost's territory, and there have never been any accidents."
"After waiting for so long, I hope for something intense."
...
Ai Si continued walking down, speaking to Gu Xi through her mental energy:
