Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"As I wish?"

Xue Wuhen was taken aback, his eyes narrowed into slits as he looked at Xiao Yi with a playful expression, "Kid, you're not actually thinking about participating in the dueling arena, are you?"

In his eyes, Xiao Yi must have lost his mind.

The duels within the Combat Pavilion were a matter of life and death.

However...

All of this, in Xiao Yi's view, was exactly what he desired.

Wasn't this a great opportunity to make money?

Winning ten consecutive matches would yield one-tenth of the prize, and winning a hundred matches in a row would grant him all the wagers.

Such a streak of victories may be difficult for others.

But to Xiao Yi, it seemed as simple as reaching into a bag and taking what he needed.

Xiao Yi said indifferently, "Don't you just wish for me to join the duel in the Combat Pavilion?"

Xue Wuhen frowned and said, "Kid, do you really prefer to die rather than yield to me? Don't forget, this is my turf, and if you really get on the dueling ground, killing you wouldn't be any harder than crushing an ant!"

"I'll also tell you, you're forcing me into the duel now, but later you will be kneeling and begging me to leave!" Xiao Yi said with a cold laugh.

"Hahaha..."

Xue Wuhen straightened his body, his tangible gaze fixed on Xiao Yi as he said deliberately, "Little bastard, since you're so bent on courting death, I'll grant your wish!" Xue Wuhen shouted to someone behind him, "Bring someone here, prepare a token for this foolhardy kid, and take him to the Earth Character Pavilion!"

Among the four pavilions of Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang, the Earth Character Pavilion is where the Golden Core Realm powerhouses fight.

Xiao Yi's cultivation level was of the Golden Core Realm; naturally, he was directed to the Earth Character Pavilion.

A strong member of the Combat Pavilion approached, took out a token, and said, "Please state your name, or you may use a nickname as a substitute!"

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "One Punch!"

"One Punch?"

The servant was momentarily startled, looking at him in confusion, "Does this name carry any special meaning?"

Xiao Yi glanced at Xue Wuhen behind the servant and said deliberately, "Who can withstand my undefeated punch?"

With those words...

A sense of arrogance and confidence was like an invisible storm, crushing everything.

Hiss!

The servant holding the token trembled violently, and the token almost fell to the ground.

"Who can withstand your undefeated punch? That's quite the bold claim. You're not considering yourself Xiao Tianjiao, are you?"

Xue Wuhen mocked incessantly, his face full of disdain and impatience, as he waved to the servant, "Take him to the Earth Character Pavilion and arrange his fight!"

"Yes!"

The attendant immediately led Xiao Yi to the Earth Character Pavilion.

As for Ye Heng, he was taken by Xue Wuhen to the VIP area and was not allowed to place bets on the way.

This left Ye Heng quite helpless.

Meanwhile...

Xiao Yi had already been led by the servant to the prep area of the Earth Character Pavilion, where hundreds of powerhouses were meditating with their eyes closed.

Each of these people was a Golden Core Realm existence, and every one of them was exceptionally indifferent, only giving Xiao Yi a glance when he appeared before slowly withdrawing their gaze.

"Please prepare a mask for me!" Xiao Yi said. Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

"Please wait a moment!"

Shortly after, the servant brought over a silver mask.

As soon as Xiao Yi put on the mask, the servant said, "The Pavilion Master has given special instructions that as long as you don't cry halt, we can keep arranging opponents for you. He regards this as a special favor to you!"

Xiao Yi nodded, stood up, and walked toward the dueling arena.

Within the VIP area.

Xue Wuhen sat in a bold manner, with his legs crossed and relaxedly tasting his fine wine, his eyes narrowing into slits as he gazed at Ye Heng beside him who seemed somewhat apprehensive, "Kid, if you hand over those billions to me now and have your master kneel and apologize to me, I might consider sparing you both!"

Ye Heng gave him a look and said, "You better think about how you're going to beg my master to leave the dueling ground later on!"

"Oh? It seems you have quite the confidence in your master!" Xue Wuhen said with a laugh.

Ye Heng replied, "My master is invincible in battle!"

"Invincible? Hahaha..."

Xue Wuhen shook his head, chuckling disdainfully, "Then let's just wait and see!"

Xue Wuhen snapped his fingers.

Boom, boom, boom!

The grand gates on both sides of the dueling arena burst open, and at the same time, a graceful woman appeared in the center of the arena and announced loud and clear, "The combatants for this battle: on the left side, our Barbarian King. The other is a newcomer; his name is quite unique, called One Punch. According to him, the meaning behind this name is 'Who can withstand my punch undefeated'!"

The rules of Earth Character Pavilion are different from those of Huang Xuan's pavilions.

Here, they don't publicize the combatants' cultivation levels, but rather let people guess based on their feelings.

"..."

The vast Earth Character Pavilion fell silent.

Then a burst of roaring laughter erupted, "Hahaha, isn't this kid way too arrogant? Who gave him the courage?"

"I've seen the arrogant, but never this arrogant!"

"Barbarian King, beat him to death!"

In the middle of the dueling arena.

The Barbarian King snickered continuously, standing at a towering height of three meters, reportedly a strong man from a barbaric tribe living in remote forests. His hands kneading each other, producing a crackling sound that was loud and clear, he said coldly, "Kid, I'll let you have the first punch!"

"Oh!"

Xiao Yi nodded agreeably.

He threw a punch that seemed casual and light.

Full of mockery, the Barbarian King remarked, "Your punch is so slow, and your power so weak, are you trying to tickle me?"

However...

The smile on his face suddenly vanished.

It wasn't that the fist had hit him, but just the force of the punch approaching.

Whoosh!

The Barbarian King didn't even have time to scream before being blasted away by the force of the punch, without even being touched by the fist itself!

Thud!

The Barbarian King slammed hard against the Array and rebounded back onto the ground, completely knocked out cold.

Hiss!

The strong ones who were previously mocking Xiao Yi collectively fell silent.

They all stared stupefied at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi looked up at the graceful girl and said, "Next!"

The graceful girl had already received instructions, to continuously provide him with opponents as long as Xiao Yi didn't call a stop.

Previously, the Barbarian King was only at the fifth layer of the Golden Core Realm; this time, the challenger was at the sixth layer.

And then...

Bang!

The Seventh Layer of the Golden Core Realm.

Bang!

The Eighth Layer of the Golden Core Realm.

Bang...

Even when a fighter of the Ninth Layer of the Golden Core Realm stood before Xiao Yi, he was brutally smashed away, with none even capable of forcing Xiao Yi to throw a second punch.

Just like the name he chose—Who can withstand my punch undefeated?

As Xiao Yi continued to challenge.

His winning streak was rapidly increasing.

Ten rounds.

Twenty rounds.

Thirty rounds...

Without realizing it.

Xiao Yi's consecutive victories had reached fifty, meaning that Xiao Yi could now take half of the total bets placed in each of his following battles.

You should know...

Due to his continuous victories, and so far no opponent being a match for even one of his punches, Xiao Yi's reputation soared. More and more powerful figures came to place bets in his name. Now, for every battle of Xiao Yi's, the Combat Pavilion had to pay out at least two to three billion Silver, and that's not even including the half of the chips Xiao Yi now claimed with each battle.

Inside the VIP room.

Xue Wuhen was drenched in cold sweat, his hands tightly gripping the armrests, his face pale, listening to the reports from his subordinates: "What did you say?"

"P-Pavilion Master, now with every battle One Punch fights, we have to pay out around one hundred and fifty billion total. Moreover, as his share of the winnings grows greater, more and more people come to bet on him. If this continues, we're doomed..." The attendant's face was full of despair and bitterness.

"You little bastard, you're forcing my hand!"

Xue Wuhen's face turned an iron blue, his eyes filled with fierce light, he gritted his teeth and ordered, "You, go fetch Ghost General immediately..."
