After hearing Yun Zheng's words, everyone was unable to react for a while. When they came to their senses, almost everyone showed an expression of doubt about life.
Four hundred million rubies?
Are you kidding me?!
Nearly 95% of their disciples had never seen such a large amount of red jade. For a moment, they were overwhelmed by an indescribable emotion.
Isn't Junior Sister Yun Zheng asking for too much?!
Everyone couldn't help but turn their attention to Yan Kongye, wanting to see how he would react. As expected, his handsome face stiffened slightly, and he also seemed to be in disbelief.
Some people whispered, "I think Junior Brother Yan will be furious and severely reprimand Junior Sister Yun Zheng for her behavior. Two hundred million rubies was already a sky-high price, and now it's gone up to four hundred million!"
"I didn't expect Yun Zheng to look so harmless, but when it comes to Hong Yu, she's absolutely ruthless."
"Actually, I think Junior Sister Yun Zheng wants Junior Brother Yan to give up..."
One disciple saw things more clearly and said with a smile, "Why would we care? It all depends on Junior Brother Yan's wishes. If he wants to continue challenging Junior Sister Yun Zheng at the exorbitant price, then he can give her the 400 million red jades. If he doesn't want to, he can just refuse with a clear conscience."
At this moment, the elite disciples were also shocked by the "400 million rubies" that Yun Zheng mentioned. They looked at each other in confusion.
"If Junior Brother Yan isn't stupid, he probably won't agree."
Wo Gaoyang said confidently: "Junior Brother Yan is definitely not stupid!"
At this time, Yan Kongye's stiff expression faded, replaced by an expression of contentment. He smiled with a bit of evil charm and seduction.
"I'll give it to you."
When many people present heard this, it was as if they were slapped hard in the face, with loud and intense slaps.
Wo Gaoyang was stunned: "?!" He really gave it to him? Did Junior Brother Yan have a brain burn?
The Fengyun team members who were also in the arena showed some envy. Their Cloud team was indeed extraordinary, and they had Bai Lianye under control.
This pit cost them 600 million red jades.
Mo Jing sighed, "Ayun is so rich now!"
Feng Xinglan's eyes showed a hint of envy, and he nodded and said, "That makes sense."
At this moment, Yan Kongye took out a storage ring from the storage space, and under the envious eyes of everyone, he threw the storage ring from bottom to top to Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng caught it with one hand, carefully looked at it with her spiritual sense, and found that there were indeed 400 million red jades.
She lowered her eyes, feeling quite complicated.
Even if Bai Lianye is the great-grandson of Lord Yan of the human race, it is unlikely that he would possess 600 million rubies in just over a year!
Six hundred million red jades, what does that mean? That's enough to support a large family's cultivation for three years.
Bai Lianye is so determined to challenge her, what is his intention?
"Zheng Zheng."
Yan Kongye jumped back onto the stage. He was still standing in the same position as before, looking up and meeting Yun Zheng's eyes.
"This time, I won't lose to you easily."
Yun Zheng clasped her fingers slightly around the storage ring, then put it back into the space. She looked at Yan Kongye calmly and sent him a voice message: "You promised before that you would answer the two questions I asked after you lost. So, before this competition, please answer me first."
Two questions?
Yan Kongye remembered, and Zheng Zheng asked him: Who is he? And what is his purpose in coming to the Holy Ruins this time?
Yan Kongye looked at Yun Zheng with deep eyes, and spoke to her in a tone that was three parts distracted and seven parts cold.
"To be honest, I don't know what I am. Maybe... I'm just a pawn being played with by others. Zheng Zheng, when you heard this question, did you feel sorry for me?"
He seemed to be talking to himself, not giving Yun Zheng any time to react. At this moment, his shimmering black eyes narrowed slightly, and he answered the second question slowly:
"The reason I came to the Holy Ruins is for you."
Yun Zheng was somewhat surprised by these two answers. Bai Lianye's identity was still unknown, but this also indirectly proved that he had someone above him protecting him. And he came to the Holy Ruins for her this time...
Could it be related to her parents?
The two men's eyes met again, and they could sense a bloody atmosphere about to descend.
Everyone also noticed something subtle. They both seemed to be serious, and the change in their aura became obvious.
At this moment, the two of them were no longer treating each other lazily, but were like enemies at the moment before a decisive battle.
The Great Elder's brow furrowed slightly upon seeing this scene, a mixture of confusion and surprise. The auras emanating from both of them indirectly reflected one thing: their powers were far greater than their actual cultivation levels.
Yan Kongye is a very talented person, and this little girl named Yun Zheng is no less talented.
On the stage_
The steward looked at the two of them with a strange expression on his face. His mood just now was really up and down.
Four hundred million rubies... one really dares to call, and the other really responds.
The steward composed himself, looked at the two of them seriously, and said in a deep voice, "Are you two ready?"
"Okay." They both answered at the same time.
The steward shouted, "Then the challenge is officially--"
"start!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the two of them moved at the same time.
This time, Yan Kongye was not knocked out of the ring immediately, but started fighting with Yun Zheng.
He had green spiritual power in his palm and moved nimbly towards Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng raised her palm to block.
With a loud 'boom', the power of the two exploded into a loud noise.
They both took a few steps back.
Yun Zheng's eyes turned cold, and she summoned a silver sword with her bare hands. She gripped the hilt with her five fingers, channeling the dark elemental spiritual power within her body.
As she turned her wrist, a faint black light appeared on the silver sword, emitting a dangerous aura of death.
Everyone was slightly surprised. They didn't expect that Junior Sister Yun Zheng was actually a dark elementalist!
Both the dark and light elements are extremely rare in the Holy Ruins.
Yan Kongye smiled and raised his hand to summon a long sword. The blade was cold and sharp, emitting icy spiritual power, which should not be underestimated.
Before anyone could react, the two men, like two ghosts, quickly raised their swords and clashed with each other.
With a clang, the two swords collided, and the boy and girl, who were dressed in the same clothes, had crazy fighting spirit in their eyes.
Just then—
The two separated at the same time, the girl's black hair fluttered lightly, and she raised her hand and slashed with the sword.
"Dark Spinning Curse Blade!"
In an instant, a black sword blade fell to the middle and instantly split into countless black sword blades. The dark pressure exploded and attacked the young man in an unstoppable manner.
"Ice Slaughter!" The young man seemed to be unconcerned. He raised his hand and swung the sword in his hand. The sword blade released layers of strong wind.
"boom--"
The swords of both exploded again, causing the entire arena to tremble.
