NOVPUBThe first battle was won by the Bloody Lizard. Wang Yuan bet three billion and earned one billion seven hundred million. He was so ecstatic he couldn't close his mouth, continuously calling everyone "big brother," oh how sweet it was!
The second match was a brawl between two big dogs, one was golden, and the other was black.
Lin Tian said, "Bet on the black dog to win."
Wang Yuan, holding onto seventy million, steeled his heart and bet the six billion he had in his hands.
The outcome was satisfactory. Lin Tian was right, and Wang Yuan earned another billion or so. Now, he had eight billion in his hands.
The third match was between the Tiger Mastiff Beast and a giant white python.
"Your Tiger Mastiff Beast will definitely win,"
Lin Tian said confidently.
This time, Wang Yuan held nothing back, betting all eight billion, not even keeping enough for taxi fare.
The white python was strong, covered with scales, and twenty meters long, its tail whipped around like a steel flail, continuously striking the Tiger Mastiff Beast from a distance.
Initially, the Tiger Mastiff Beast was hit several times, but it managed to seize an opportunity, bravely charging towards the white python despite the risks of being struck.
The Tiger Mastiff Beast was hit another two times, but it endured and got close to the white python.
After that, the Tiger Mastiff Beast unleashed its fury, and the white python was in a sorry state.
The steel teeth of the Tiger Mastiff Beast were particularly sharp, easily biting through the python's scales.
Scales fell off in pieces, scattering everywhere, leaving snake flesh all over; the white python had turned into a bloody python.
If the battle continued that way, the white python would surely die in combat.
In the end, having no choice, the owner of the white python struck the gong to admit defeat.
This time, many people noticed the prowess of the Tiger Mastiff Beast, so even though Wang Yuan bet eight billion, the odds were low, and he only earned two billion. Now, Wang Yuan had ten billion in hand, double what he had when he arrived.
However, this wasn't all his money, as half of it belonged to Lin Tian.
Although the Tiger Mastiff Beast had decisively beaten its opponent, it was also covered in wounds. Wang Yuan went down to check and quickly arranged for someone to treat it.
In the following matches, Lin Tian predicted all the outcomes correctly, and Wang Yuan earned a fortune. At this moment, his assets had reached sixteen billion.
The last match was between Huang Batian's Diamond Bear and a reddish-brown lion.
This battle had no suspense at all; everyone bet that the Diamond Bear would win.
Even the owner of the reddish-brown lion was secretly frustrated, wishing he could chop off his own hands.
Damn, such bad luck, to have drawn this Diamond Bear!
Must've forgotten to bring toilet paper to the restroom!
The owner of the reddish-brown lion was rational, conceding on the spot, so the Diamond Bear won without having to fight.
Lin Tian was somewhat displeased; he wanted to gauge the strength of the Diamond Bear, but didn't get the chance, feeling quite helpless about it.
Meanwhile, Feiyan was even more shocked. After ten bouts, with the last being an anomaly, Lin Tian had correctly placed bets on all others.
This judgment, it's too incredible!
Even Sister Ling doesn't have such discernment!
After the ten beast battles concluded, almost three hours had passed, and there was a three-hour break to allow people and beasts to rest. Then at seven o'clock, the next round of competitions would continue.
The Tiger Mastiff Beast wasn't too badly injured; as long as some medication was applied, it would be fine, so Wang Yuan was not worried.
Feiyan had already found Lin Tian a nice restaurant, a high-level VIP room offering both Chinese and Western cuisines, skillfully prepared, which Lin Tian greatly enjoyed.
After dinner and a brief rest, the competition resumed at 7 p.m.
Twenty battle beasts had already narrowed down to ten, and the second round, still determined by draw, pitted pairs against each other, ten advancing to five!
Quickly, a staff member approached Wang Yuan to draw lots.
As Wang Yuan was heading out, Lin Tian jested, "Wash your hands before you go, wash them well, lest you draw Huang Batian's King Kong Bear, then you won't even find the tune to cry!"
Lin Tian had only said it casually, but Wang Yuan took it seriously. He really washed his hands over and over again, making sure they were perfectly clean before leaving. 𝓃ℴ𝓋𝓹𝓊𝓫.𝒸𝓸𝓂
About fifteen minutes later, Wang Yuan returned, delighted. His luck had held; he hadn't drawn the King Kong Bear, but a black rhinoceros instead.
Rhinoceroses are herbivores, not carnivores. It was a mystery how the owner of the black rhinoceros had managed to train it into a battle beast.
Lin Tian closely observed the black rhinoceros with his Subdue the Heavens.
It was three meters long and one meter six tall—no different from a normal rhinoceros.
The only difference was the placement of its two rhinoceros horns on its head.
Normally, a rhinoceros's horns are staggered, one higher and one shorter.
But on this rhinoceros, the horns were side by side and equal in length. Most importantly, the horns were black and seemed very strong and forceful.
Wang Yuan, who had been looking for a long time, couldn't conclude anything. He came up to Lin Tian and asked, "Brother Tian, can my Tiger Mastiff Beast win?"
"It can win, but it's going to take some time," Lin Tian said indifferently.
The rhinoceros's advantages over the Tiger Mastiff Beast were its thick skin and immense strength.
However, its disadvantages were also clear: too heavy, too clumsy, not nimble.
The rhinoceros's only weapons were its two horns. As long as the Tiger Mastiff Beast could dodge the rhinoceros's horns with its agile body, it could remain undefeated.
But given the rhinoceros's thick skin, to defeat it, the Tiger Mastiff Beast would surely struggle.
After hearing this, Wang Yuan was very pleased. Winning was all that mattered; a longer time didn't matter.
The battle was about to start, the first match being between a giant black dog and a large crocodile.
In the previous match, the giant black dog had fought the golden big dog. Lin Tian had advised Wang Yuan to bet on the black dog, and Wang Yuan had made some money.
But this time, Lin Tian advised Wang Yuan to bet on the large crocodile.
As it turned out, Lin Tian was right again, and Wang Yuan made another profit.
In the second match, a tiger fought against a hyena as big as a rhinoceros. Lin Tian advised Wang Yuan to bet on the tiger, and again they profited.
The third match was between the Tiger Mastiff Beast and the black rhinoceros.
As soon as the battle began, the black rhinoceros, armed with its seemingly indestructible big horns, charged madly at the Tiger Mastiff Beast.
The Tiger Mastiff Beast realized it couldn't withstand the horns head-on. Leveraging its agility, it dodged the rhinoceros's horns and jumped to its back, biting down hard.
The Tiger Mastiff Beast's teeth were incredibly sharp, capable of biting through steel bars as thick as a thumb.
Although the rhinoceros's skin seemed catalyzed by something to be extraordinarily tough, the Tiger Mastiff Beast still managed to tear off a chunk of flesh.
"Good!"
Wang Yuan excitedly shouted, cheering on his battle beast.
Another intense twenty minutes passed, with the Tiger Mastiff Beast desperately leaping to the sides of the black rhinoceros, avoiding its horn attacks.
The rhinoceros fiercely aimed its horns at the Tiger Mastiff Beast, but it was not as agile as the Tiger Mastiff Beast, and the outcome...!
