Chapter 519: Chapter 341: Magnetic Pole Potential Slash_2
Zhao Manying said softly, "I told you before, she was just humiliating herself."
Su Ziyou nodded and exclaimed, "Xinghuo, seeing your strength with my own eyes, I find it even more exaggerated. Even though I’m a Legendary, I might not even have a ten percent chance against you."
He felt both astonished and shocked.
In fact, not just Su Ziyou—everyone present today, those Legendary beings, all felt threatened.
Everyone couldn’t believe that the strength of a Super Mutant could be so immense.
This was beyond their comprehensive limits.
The comment from the ADC, "The top beneath the Heavenly King," now seemed entirely accurate with no exaggeration.
Ji Xinghuo lay semi-reclined on the sofa, stretching his arms, and said to Su Ziyou, "If I didn’t have the strength, how would I dare to make a betting agreement with Li Xuan?"
"That’s true..." Su Ziyou nodded.
Zhao Manying was playing with her phone when she suddenly said, "Xinghuo, your odds have dropped."
"Let me see."
Ji Xinghuo moved closer to her, and saw that the odds from his showdown with Li Xuan had dropped from 1:18 to 1:16, evidently influenced by the recent fight video with Kelly, and it seemed likely to drop further.
"Let it drop. Most of our capital is already bet," Ji Xinghuo said indifferently.
Upon arriving in Ivangrad, Zhao Manying’s team had started taking action.
Their combined capital of ten billion Ya Yuan was divided into more than two thousand bets, each amounting between three to eight million, staggered over different intervals and placed in dozens of international company markets, with over 90% already wagered.
"You bet on yourselves?" Su Ziyou caught on.
Ji Xinghuo nodded.
Su Ziyou was shocked; most people didn’t favor Ji Xinghuo. In online polls, Ji Xinghuo’s support was only at 3%, and he himself didn’t think Ji Xinghuo could win the fight against Li Xuan.
As a Legendary, Su Ziyou was very aware of the Heavenly King’s prowess.
Yet Ji Xinghuo still bet on himself. After thinking for a moment, Su Ziyou suddenly said, "I’ll also place a few billion on it."
"On whom?" An Yitian asked from the side.
"Of course on Xinghuo," Su Ziyou smiled. "It’s not a lot of money anyway. Consider it support for Xinghuo. If we win, it’s a huge gain."
"Brother, we should also bet on Ji Xinghuo," the usually quiet An Zhisu suddenly said softly.
"Good, we’ll place thirty billion Ya Yuan," An Yitian didn’t hesitate and turned to Ji Xinghuo with a smile, "Whether we can cash in big this time depends on you."
"Congratulations on your financial freedom."
Ji Xinghuo lifted his glass and took a sip.
Even at the current odds, a thirty billion bet could return nearly five hundred billion—a considerable fortune even for Legendary beings and greatly beneficial for cultivation.
"Not really free," An Yitian exclaimed with regret, "It’s not Ether Crystals, after all. A few hundred billion can only buy some cultivation resources. Those top treasures, even with a few trillion, you can’t buy them; otherwise, Li Xuan wouldn’t be forced into a betting showdown with you."
"Yeah..." Su Ziyou also felt it deeply.
Legendary beings seldom lack money.
Especially those listed in the Legendary charts, money is but an external object to them.
What they lacked were Alien Species, expansion artifacts, Apocalypse Level weapon equipment, and Ether Crystals.
As they chatted at the banquet and it neared its end, Su Ziyou finally spoke up, trying to probe, "Xinghuo, if you win your fight against Li Xuan, what do you plan to do with that ’Absolute Hit’?"
Ji Xinghuo was not surprised.
Since getting to know Su Ziyou today, he had been especially enthusiastic towards him, all for the sake of Absolute Hit.
Which Mutants at the banquet tonight wouldn’t want it?
Including Princess Sofia, the reason she hosted this shooting exchange was likely also to forge a closer relationship and seize the advantage when transacting the "Absolute Hit" later.
"I haven’t decided yet."
Ji Xinghuo’s vague answer fended off the inquiry.
Su Ziyou looked disappointed but didn’t press further.
After the banquet, Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying returned to their room to rest. After washing up, they nestled together, and Zhao Manying looked up and said, "Xinghuo, your ’Absolute Hit’ will attract more and more inquiries, you should plan ahead soon."
"I understand."
Ji Xinghuo nodded, though he hadn’t really decided either.
Ji Xinghuo and Man Ying both didn’t need Absolute Hit, the best way was to trade, to exchange with others for an equivalent Star-falling Species.
But such a Level trade was hard to come by.
"Let’s talk about it after I beat Li Xuan," Ji Xinghuo didn’t think much further, he took out the chip given by Kelly and read its content with his phone.
There wasn’t much information in the chip.
It mainly introduced "Magnetic Pole Potential Slash," a Star-falling Species that synchronizes its magnetic field with the planet’s magnetic field, elevating the magnetic potential energy to an extremely high level and releasing energy instantaneously, accompanied by a high-temperature electric current in one strike.
If Magnetic Pole Potential Slash attacks using a blade as a carrier, it can exert greater destructive power.
It could also be released barehanded, but the power would be somewhat reduced.
How strong it actually was, the chip didn’t describe it; it should be that even Kelly’s own information channels were unclear.
She had gotten the insider information from the Xinxiang Consortium.
This Star-falling Species was located in the eastern part of the True Dragon Dynasty, an area known as "Donghuang Sea," comprising a vast sea with innumerable islands, with the largest island comparable in size to the entire Earth or even larger.
Among these, an island was ruled by the "Whale Dragon Family," who would stably produce a Magnetic Pole Potential Slash every few years.
"Donghuang Sea, Whale Dragon Family."
Ji Xinghuo clicked his tongue.
Just hearing these names, one could tell that the Whale Dragon Family was part of the ruling class of the True Dragon Dynasty, pure True Dragon people.
The status and power of the True Dragon Family depended on their True Dragon bloodline.
On Earth, there was little information about Whale Dragons, possibly no one had even seen them, except for a name, there were no pictures or descriptions.
The Star Realm Department didn’t have more information either.
Zhao Manying also finished reading the data and shook her head, saying, "The territory of the True Dragon Dynasty is so vast, this Donghuang Sea is at least a million kilometers away."
She was just guessing; the extent of the True Dragon Dynasty’s territory remained a mystery to Earthlings.
After all, the Orion Arm in the Star Realm corresponds to the 26th Star Zone, mostly under the rule of the True Dragon Dynasty.
The entire Star Realm consists of 45 Star Zones, corresponding to 45 Galaxy Star Regions.
Roughly, it could be assumed the True Dragon Dynasty ruled one forty-fifth of the Star Realm and the corresponding one forty-fifth of the Milky Way.
Distance wasn’t an issue.
The key was, to go to the Donghuang Sea meant entering the True Dragon Dynasty, and it was very likely to encounter the Dynasty’s strong figures on the way, which could easily cause trouble.
Moreover, once they reached the Whale Dragon Family, how would they acquire Magnetic Pole Potential Slash?
"Use Absolute Hit to trade?"
Ji Xinghuo suddenly had this idea, "Forget it, I’ll think about these matters after I advance to Legendary." He removed the chip and stopped thinking about it further, focusing his attention on the unmatched beauty held in his arms.
Soon, the room was filled with the breath of spring.
The next day, Ji Xinghuo and his company only got out of bed when the sun was high up, and after reluctantly being treated to a lavish lunch by Princess Sofia, they left the Royal Hunting Ground and returned to Ivangrad.
In the afternoon.
Ji Xinghuo went to the headquarters of the Global Marathon organizing committee, confirmed his registration, and picked up his number and equipment.
Then he continued sightseeing in Ivangrad with Zhao Manying.
However, they had bad luck today as they were recognized a few times, immediately attracting a crowd of onlookers.
Ji Xinghuo had no choice but to fly away with Zhao Manying, cutting their sightseeing short.
That night, Ji Xinghuo rested and recharged, even going to the hotel’s Cultivation Room to run until late into the night before returning to his room to rest.
July 25th.
Today was the day of the Global Marathon.
In the morning, Ji Xinghuo came alone to the starting point, located on the eastern shore of the Bosphorus Strait, which was already packed with people, and the racetrack on the streets at the starting point had been cleared, with residents who came to watch the race crowding both sides.
When Ji Xinghuo descended from the sky and landed at the starting point of the Global Marathon, most of the reporters and spectators at the scene did not recognize him.
Suddenly someone shouted, "He’s Ji Xinghuo, I’ve seen him before!"
Instantly, all cameras turned towards Ji Xinghuo, and the live broadcast switched to him, being transmitted worldwide.
The host excitedly announced, "Ji Xinghuo has arrived!"
