However, most people just scoffed at them.
“I think you're just ignorant; that's Lord Jiang Wang.”
“You're probably going to say that, according to common sense, Jiang Wang's strength is a bit unbelievable.”
“You said it yourself, common sense, but can Jiang Wang's strength be defined by common sense?”
“The answer is no; he is beyond common sense.”
Those who praised Jiang Wang naturally unleashed a powerful barrage of words.
Their faces always wore happy smiles.
Because they believed that the strong contestant they had chosen was Jiang Wang.
They had already spent a lot of money betting on Jiang Wang, convinced that he would win.
Although, given Jiang Wang's strength, winning the bet might not earn them much money.
Earning ten yuan from a hundred was already pretty good.
But if someone invested ten thousand or even a hundred thousand directly, the returns would be enormous.
Gambling addicts are not to be imitated, but Jiang Wang is truly strong.
“But what if Jiang Wang chickens out? Remember, that's the Dragon Clan.”
“It's not just about him as an individual; he's now the leader of an entire force.”
“If he provokes the Dragon Clan, he's going to be in trouble.”
Indeed, everyone present was well aware of how troublesome the Dragon Clan was.
Thinking of this, the people present fell into silence.
Undeniably, there was indeed a risk involved, and a significant one.
For the sake of the Paradise World, perhaps Jiang Wang would intentionally lose to the Dragon Clan?
“No, Jiang Wang would never do that; he will defeat everything with his strongest form.”
“I'm going to increase my bet; Jiang Wang will win within one minute.”
“Jiang Wang will definitely kill the old dragon in a second.”
At this moment, such voices came from the crowd.
“No way, Winner, are you betting so big?”
“One minute? Those are both experts at the fifth level of Void Shattering Realm!”
“And they are both extremely powerful, capable of challenging opponents above their level.”
“The battle will inevitably turn into a prolonged one; what are you talking about one minute? Are you kidding me?”
Some people felt that Winner's bet was a bit irrational.
“Heh, the bet is placed, just watch me make money.”
Winner smiled, seeing all the expressions of the people present.
In fact, several people had already shown expressions of desire.
This was Winner's bet; this guy had bet on the Martial Arts Tournament several times.
And each time, he had won steadily, like a prophecy, accurately guessing the result every time.
Some even suspected that he had some inside information.
However, after learning about his series of achievements, people understood.
This guy relied on excellent luck.
However, some people just didn't believe in luck; they thought it was all nonsense.
“I'm going to bet against you; luck can't always be on your side.”
“Bet everything; the old dragon will take care of Jiang Wang.”
Some people just wanted to challenge the son of luck, truly courting death.
Chapter 1017: Semifinals
Amidst this intense discussion, the semi-finals began; the Martial Arts Tournament had truly reached its final stage.
The previous matches had been several matches a day, but now the matches were slightly longer.
Because the duels between experts were sometimes truly difficult to resolve.
Experts at the fifth level of strength might fight for several days, which was very normal.
Because at this level of strength, as strong individuals, their weaknesses or loopholes had been filled.
In other words, everyone would have their strengths, which were their advantages, perhaps close combat, perhaps long-range attrition.
But in any case, there should be an advantage, a point that could be used as a weapon in battle to create an advantage.
At the same time, everyone would have their shortcomings and weaknesses, which was of course natural.
Experts at the fifth level of strength would naturally target their weaknesses and carry out a series of improvements.
Exploit strengths, make up for weaknesses, the higher the level, the higher the standard of the strong, and the stronger the combat power would naturally be.
And the most important point was "comprehensiveness"; everyone developed comprehensively, trying to make themselves perfect.
So, in this case, the strength levels of both sides were similar, and there were basically no obvious weaknesses.
Various shortcomings had also been made up for in every possible way; in this case, the duration of the battle would continue to lengthen.
Like ordinary people's battles, they might exchange a few rounds, and then they would almost determine the winner.
As long as they hit the opponent's vital point, then the opponent would fall, and they could win.
But for Void Shattering Realm experts, this was difficult to achieve.
Because for experts, the so-called fatal injuries might not matter at all.
Most people could use their power to accelerate recovery.
For ordinary people, a broken heart would be a fatal situation, but for high-level Void Shattering Realm experts.
As long as the handling was appropriate, then this was not a problem at all.
A broken heart could be restored, and if the brain was rotten, the soul could restore the body.
This was the ability of Void Shattering Realm experts, and that was why their battles would last for a long time.
But for Jiang Wang, he didn't take that old dragon Li seriously at all.
The competition was held, and as agreed before, they came to a special venue within the Paradise World.
Because Old Li had requested before the competition not to fight in a dream.
He suspected that Jiang Wang had used cheating methods in the dream to defeat so many experts.
But the fact was that the point about cheating had been discussed many times.
And most importantly, Old Li had made plans to throw the match directly, to lose directly to Jiang Wang.
He hoped to use his defeat as a reason for the Dragon Clan to have a reason to start a war.
In fact, this reason could be arranged in a large pile at will, which was not very meaningful.
Arranging his defeat here was just for convenience.
“Hehe, Lord Jiang Wang, let's begin.”
The dragon Old Li smiled at Jiang Wang, showing an unusual power on his body.
They, the Dragon Clan, were very powerful, possessing many super secret techniques inherited from ancient times.
Although secret techniques were not necessarily stronger the older they were.
Because with the changes of the times, secret techniques would also accelerate their updates.
It was like five thousand, ancient swords and spears, which were certainly very strong.
Placed in modern society, they could probably kill many people; cold weapons still had room to survive.
But in the new era, weapons would also have different appearances.
Machine guns, missiles, and even strategic weapons, weapons that could destroy cities in an instant, were numerous.
Secret techniques were like these "weapons"; updating was a matter of course.
But there were indeed some secret techniques that were stronger the older they were.
After all, ninety million worlds were all about possibility.
No matter what happened, there would be a possibility of it happening.
Without being polite, perhaps there was indeed some incomparably powerful secret technique in the ultra-ancient era.
But would the Supreme Consciousness pass down this invincible secret technique? Of course not.
The reason why this super powerful secret technique was lost was probably also because of the arrangement of the Supreme Consciousness.
Powers that threatened the existence of the Supreme Consciousness and might cause irreversible effects on the ninety million worlds would all be locked up.
The Dragon Clan was a very ancient race; it seemed that dragons were already active in ancient times.
So they should have a lot of secret techniques inherited from ancient times, and their power was very good.
But the fact was that the Dragon Clan was extremely rigid, but their attitude towards secret techniques was very peculiar.
They were very willing to carry out a series of magical modifications to these ancient secret techniques.
So, seemingly ancient secret techniques had probably undergone thousands of magical modifications.
In other words, their secret techniques had always kept pace with the times.
Now, the dragon Old Li was presenting a human appearance.
To be honest, this was a special transformation secret technique, and the effect looked very good.
