The cruel reality was plain for all to see. They could not help but wonder if Jackie really was crazy.
The discussions around him did not affect Jackie at all. Two and a half minutes quickly passed by, and he raised an
eyebrow, feeling like there was no reason to hesitate any longer. He turned to look at the caretaker, pointing right
at the Thousand Feathered Beast.
Since he did not know the skill level of the other four beasts and what they were called, he would pick one he was
familiar with. Even if he had estimated the Thousand Feathered Beast to be at the second or third among the five
beasts, putting it at above average, Jackie did not mind. It would not affect anything at all.
The caretaker was different from the others. He did not care about Jackie's status or background. He was just a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcaretaker who upheld the rules. After Jackie made his choice, the other four figures turned into energy,
disappearing into the air. Only the Thousand Feathered Beast remained, slowly solidifying. Its rainbow-colored
feathers reflected the light intensely. It seemed like they were looking at a rainbow-colored phoenix.
Jackie raised an eyebrow, remembering that the Thousand Feathered Beast’s natural skill was called the Deadly
Plume!
Only, he did not know how much the Thousand Feathered Beast had mastered Deadly Plume. After the choice was
made, the caretaker kept the black scroll and walked forward to make an announcement for all the warriors.
“You have an hour to make your choice. The black iron bet is different from the normal betting. The upper limit for
a black iron bet is a million spirit crystals, and the lowest bet you can place is fifty thousand. Anyone who wants to
bet can head to the betting area with your spirit crystals. We will announce the odds right now. The beast is one to
two! The warrior is one to seven!”
The moment that was said, the spectators were in an uproar. Everyone had their eyes widened. It was the first time
they had seen such high odds!
The difference between the two odds was three times more. Those odds could be absurd in the real world. It looked
like even the caretakers felt like Lucius’ chances of winning were incredibly slim. Otherwise, there was no way the
odds would be so high.
If a lot of people bet on the beast, Hundred Beast City would probably lose a lot of money. They had set the odds so
ridiculously possibly because they did not think that Lucius would win!
Hearing those odds, Jackie’s lips twitched in exasperation. Even if he had never taken part in any battles, his aura
should not be that weak.
Was there a reason for the odds to be so high?
However, that suited his intentions perfectly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince his odds were one to seven, then he just needed to bet a million on himself. After that, he would be able to
get seven million spirit crystals for free after winning the black iron bet! Thinking about it made him happy. The
more Arne laughed, the happier he was. He suddenly felt like even the caretakers were starting to get lovable.
He deliberately said loudly, “Everyone, did you hear that? It looks like even the caretakers feel that Lucius’ acting
absurdly. That’s why they set the odds so high. They just want to attract more people to bet on Lucius to make
more for themselves!”
Normally, high odds are meant to even out the betting pool. They could not have everyone placing their bets on
one side. That way, Hundred Beast City would not lose that much if one side won. Pulling Jackie’s odds so high was
meant to attract more warriors to bet on Jackie.
