"What the hell?" Bai Cangfeng look at his phone in shock.
"Holy fuck I'm rich." Jiang Yu said in joy.
"But how?" Nanyu said in disbelief.
"I can't understand either." Jiang ShaoXu said.
"What happened?" Zhao Manyan asked curiously.
"Someone send me 500M Yuan saying I won them in bet. But I didn't bet." Jiang Yu said.
"Me too"Jiang ShaoXu said.
"Same here" Bai Cangfeng said.
"Is this some kind of prank?" Nanyu asked.
"500M huh? maybe someone owe each of you 250M Yuan and put that money on bet. Even after giving 500M to each of you, that person must have earned 1B Yuan." Zhao Manyan explained, he is cursing himself from yesterday for not betting on his team. He has fantasized all scenerios in which he could have made profit.
"Not 250M but Chen Xiao do owe 100M Yuan to each of us." Jiang Yu said.
"Well you have it now. He must have bet on our team." Zhao Manyan said.
"I'm going guys bye." Bai Cangfeng rushed to buy Soul Grade Wind Seed. His family has also send him some money to buy an equipment but a nothing can be compared with a soul grade seed.
Jiang Yu and Nanyu also left.
AFTER FEW DAYS (12B, 38PLS)(Chen Xiao)
"This headache... is killing me." Chen Xiao muttered.
"So you are up sleeping princess." Jiang ShaoXu teased and start peeling an apple.
"Yes Poison witch.... ouch" Chen Xiao countered only to get flick on his forehead.
"I was waiting for you to wake up but now I think you were more attractive while sleeping." Jiang ShaoXu complaint.
"So how long have I been unconscious?" Chen Xiao asked.
"2nd match is going on." Jiang ShaoXu replied.
"Advisors didn't let you participate?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Nope, the opponents are weak and advisors want as many members in good condition as possible for next match." Jiang ShaoXu explore.
"So who are fighting currently?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Captain, Nanyu, Mo Fan, Mu Ningxue and Jiang Yu are fighting. Those are still not in good condition but Nanyu bought a Soul Grade Plant Seed and Jiang Yu upgrade his Rock Golem, it's very unlikely we will lose." Jiang ShaoXu said.
"Who is our next opponent?" Chen Xiao asked.
If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
"It's either South Korea or Japan." Jiang ShaoXu replied.
"Here" Jiang ShaoXu put a slice of apple in Chen Xiao's mouth.
"That's not poisonous, right?" Chen Xiao asked jokingly.
"Eat up already." Jiang ShaoXu
"Strawberry" Chen Xiao demanded and Jiang ShaoXu put a strawberry in his mouth.
"Grape"
"Peach"
"Leechi"
"Pineapple"
"Orange"
"Watermelon"
"There is no watermelon." Jiang ShaoXu said.
"Then bring one." Chen Xiao demanded.
"How about a punch?" Jiang ShaoXu threatened.
"No, it seems I'm full." Chen Xiao step back.
"So you finally awake." Bai Cangfeng entered the room.
"So you can see." Chen Xiao joked.
"Don't talk nonsense, anyways, team won the match." Bai Cangfeng released the breaking news
"Tell me something I didn't predicted." Chen Xiao said.
"I bought a Soul Grade Wind Seed and my wind Element is at Level 2." Bai Cangfeng said with a grin.
"Don't tell me you bought an average Soul Grade Seed." Chen Xiao said.
"What do you mean by average? everyone doesn't have that much to put in a single resource, not to mention I also have fire element to support." Bai Cangfeng reasoned.
"Whatever" Chen Xiao said.
'What should I do? I just wake up from a good sleep. What is the best way to refresh? Umm.... good grief, I'm as good as a prisoner here. Only thing left is cultivation.' Chen Xiao thought.
I have Cultivation Tool, Elemental Tool, Magic Accelerator everything is same as when I was a Mid Tier mage except of the time. But now I only need to focus on Space Element.
"Hello! we are still here don't go blank on us." Bai Cangfeng said, annoyed.
"What were you saying again?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Forget it." Bai Cangfeng left.
THIRD MATCH
Today, we will be fighting against Japan. Their condition is not much better than us. So, we do stand a chance against them.
Me, Ai Jiangtu, Jiang Yu, Jiang ShaoXu and Bai Cangfeng will be fighting them.
"Chen Xiao, I'm warning you, no need to push yourself too hard. Otherwise forget about participating in remaining tournament." Feng Li warned.
"I will do everything in power to win this match." Chen Xiao said completely ignoring Feng Li's warning.
"Hahaha... that's spirit boy. Do your best out there, think nothing of Feng Li's warning. I will make sure you stay on team." Pang Lai said, Feng Li said nothing to go against Pang Lai.
"Japanese team also sustained quite injuries in their match against South Korea, we might have upper edge this time." Song He said.
"Who we should send advisor?" a Japanese woman asked, she is having headache from early morning because of today's match.
"Should we send our best ones or just try to analyse their strength. Many of team members haven't recovered from last match." a Japanese man advised.
"We will analyse, it's very unlikely we will win even if we send our strongest ones. Chinese team is no longer a joke. If they happened to send those 4 (Ai Jiangtu, Chen Xiao, Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue), we will lose with great casualties." a Japanese woman made the final decision.
We entered the arena.
"It seems like they are not taking us seriously." Ai Jiangtu said as Japan didn't send their core team.
"Isn't that a good thing?" Jiang ShaoXu said.
"Seems like South Korea gave them a tough fight." Bai Cangfeng said.
"Chen Xiao, Captain, you both don't need to fight. We will take care of them." Jiang Yu declared.
"Then you have the honour." Ai Jiangtu said.
"Level 2 Aerial Wings: Wing Sword and Shield" Bai Cangfeng have a sword and a shield and a pair of wings behind him. Now his offense, defense and mobility are in perfect balance. He launched at the wind mage of Japanese team.
"Contract Summon: Come forth Night Rakshasa, Don't let them caste spell."
"Soul Deception: Mind Control"
In less than 30 minutes, opponents were on their knees.
"The winner is Chinese team." Refree announced.
"It seems we underestimated rest of them. Other team members are weak but only in comparison to those 4." a Japanese man said.
"Well done everyone, now rest well." Song He said.
"One more match and after 1 week, the 2nd round will start. None of you will want to be exempted from 2nd round which is Treasure Hunt, so try not to get in trouble. Otherwise, you will lost your chance to get your hands on treasure which will you have lot of trouble finding them anywhere else in the world." Feng Li said.
AFTER FEW DAYS
Thanks to one of the best medical staff employed here my condition is better now.
Our fourth match was against Mexican team which was also in bad shape after their former match. We easily won.
Everyone else have also recovered completely and are making strategies to gain most treasure.
"You look a lot better now than the first time you arrived." a nurse complemented.
"Thanks to your hardwork." Chen Xiao thanked.
"You were lucky, if it wasn't for tournament. You would have to spend at least 1B to get treatment and hospitalised for at least one month but here the best medics from all over the world are gathered who are second only to Pantheron." nurse said.
"I'm indeed lucky having you taking care of me. Someone as experienced, professional and kind." Chen Xiao complemented.
"Butter me all you want, you are not leaving this place unless your advisors don't allow you. Anyway, what in the world you got attacked by to get in this condition." nurse said.
"A Dark Swordmaster, inferior monarch." Chen Xiao boasted.
"No wonder, even after 3 Advance Tier healing spells you are still not completely healed." Nurse said and left when saw Jiang ShaoXu entering the room.
"Are you hitting on that nurse?" Jiang ShaoXu asked suspiciously.
"Nope instead that nurse was hitting on me." Chen Xiao joked.
"So, why did you call me?" Jiang ShaoXu asked.
"I need your help." Chen Xiao said.
"What kind of help?" Jiang ShaoXu asked.
"I have a plan for Treasure Hunt, if we work together we will earn a lot of resources." Chen Xiao said.
"So what's the plan?" Jiang ShaoXu asked.
"When we enter the treasure hunt area. You will control the broadcasting eagles and use them to find me. I will cast 'Lightning Pillar' every 5 minutes. Then we together will find treasures using those eagles." Chen Xiao explained the plan.
"Why wouldn't I just keep the the treasures for myself?" Jiang ShaoXu asked with while showing cunning grin.
"Do you really think, you are so lucky that only you will find those treasures and no one else or are you confident in winning against anyone you face and secure the treasure." Chen Xiao mocked.
"Fine fine I understand, why don't we gather everyone?" Jiang ShaoXu asked.
"More people means less share." Chen Xiao reasoned.
"Then it will be just two of us." Jiang ShaoXu asked.
"Yup" Chen Xiao replied.
"You got the deal. But the share will be 50-50" Jiang ShaoXu demanded.
"But I will be the one fighting. You will have only supporting role." Chen Xiao try to do reasoning.
"Tell me Chen Xiao, in your peak condition, how much effort you will have to put to defeat an average national team?" Jiang ShaoXu asked.
"Not much." Chen Xiao replied.
"But I will have to put a lot of effort to control the broadcasting eagles. In short I will be doing more work. So, we should at least have equal share." Jiang ShaoXu reasoned.
"But that will be only applicable for the resources we will earn together. Not for those, we will earn individually." Chen Xiao demanded.
"Fine" Jiang ShaoXu agreed.
"Let me put a seal on your soul, so I will be able to find you." Jiang ShaoXu said.
