Chapter 1018: Purple Crystal Coin Warrior Jin Miaolin
"Luck that happens too often is no longer just luck." The Heavenly Spirit Emperor Tianyang looked at him meaningfully, waved his large hand, and sent Tang San and Qiu Zixuan back to the front of their respective resting areas.
Tang San landed from thin air, and the elders of the Blue Golden Tree Clan had already rushed out from the resting area. Almost instantly, Tang San was thrown into the sky by them.
Victory is victory, no matter how it's achieved. The fact that the Clan Leader of the Blue Golden Tree Tribe, the hope in their hearts, made it into the repechage of the competition for the throne, was cause enough for celebration. Although a repechage round robin would make it even harder to create a miracle, it still meant three battles, three victories into the repechage! They could brag about this for a full year. When had the Blue Golden Tree Clan ever been so glorious? One must trace back to the era of the Tree Ancestor for such splendor.
Even now, Ning Chenen's eyes still carried a trace of daze. Seven seed contestants, and yet one more was eliminated in such a manner. Qiu Zixuan was truly wronged! It would have been better to give the second draw to oneself, certainly could've knocked this guy down until he was searching for his teeth on the ground.
Looking at Tang San with a smile all over his face, for some reason, he kinda felt a grinding pain in his teeth with hate. This guy was just too bizarre.
Purple Crystal Coin Warrior, this was really a Purple Crystal Coin Warrior!
If the first two matches could be attributed to the Sword Saint Demon Emperor Statue's assistance in helping Tang San win, making his title not so resounding, now, with the victory secured by the Black Tortoise Shield purchased with Purple Crystal Coins, his title had been solidified.
"Purple Crystal Coin Warrior—" In the spectator stands, someone was already calling out loudly. In an instant, who knows how much envy and admiration arose. But there was also cheering for Tang San.
After all, the feeling of "If I were there, I could do it too" made many spectators think that Tang San had become their spokesperson.
Clearly with such a weak strength, but still able to defeat the opponent, it turned out that with enough money, one could indeed become powerful!
What Tang San didn't expect was that after the Competition for the Throne ended, a craze for earning money arose in the Demon Monster Land. Earning big money, becoming powerful, becoming a Purple Crystal Coin Warrior became the motto of many monsters and spirit creatures with lesser talents.
The voice of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox rang out, "Next group."
Thoughts were pulled back to the present, as two figures leapt into the arena.
The Big Cat had naturally been watching the previous match and was in the waiting area for battle; at this moment, it felt bewildered. It fought desperately, exchanging life and blood for victory, and every victory was so hard-won. But why could some seem to win so easily?
Against the Heavenly Earth Sword, it admitted that it could not stop it at all. If it had drawn Qiu Zixuan, it would have had no choice but to admit defeat, because not admitting defeat meant death. With the speed of the Heavenly Earth Sword, unless the Emperor Judge was prepared to rescue from the start, it could very well be over in an instant.
But there, someone else had blocked it with a shield bought at an auction that wasn't even that expensive. This made it feel a bit lost.
How could this be? Why is this happening?
Is the world really so unfair?
However, Big Cat wasn't one to blame heaven and others. Moreover, with the first round ending so quickly, it felt more pressure because it had drawn the number four. Meaning in the second round, it would be up for battle.
Taking a deep breath, the Big Cat leapt forth, flying up to the competition stage from the waiting area. Meanwhile, in the City Lord's Resting Area, a door also opened, and a towering, robust figure also soared out, flying into the competition arena.
When Big Cat saw its opponent, in that instant, its blood seemed to boil over.
Tang San was right; he truly bestowed luck upon himself, incredibly encountering this inevitable opponent in the elimination match.
Both entered the arena at the same time, with Tianyang Spirit King having set up a barrier already.
Big Cat, with the God-killing Sword in hand, had its fighting spirit skyrocket to the peak in a mere moment. Its eyes bore vertical pupils, emitting a chilling murderous intent that frenziedly burst forth, making the air around its side of the field seem to thicken.
In the City Lord's Resting Area, Tang San had been let down by the elders of the Blue Golden Tree Clan. He gestured for the elders to return to the resting room, but he did not follow, instead standing outside, watching the competing sides within the battle arena.
When Big Cat entered the arena, he actually felt somewhat nervous because he knew what Big Cat was about to face.
Yesterday, he had secretly visited Big Cat and amongst the items he gave it was the Lucky Lotus Seed that the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox had ordered subordinates to deliver to him.
The Lucky Lotus Seed wasn't that significant for Tang San; he already possessed luck control power equivalent to an Eight-Tailed Sky Fox. The seed could only bolster it a bit. But for Big Cat, who had no luck control ability of its own, the luck that the Lucky Lotus Seed brought was bound to cause an explosive increase.
The reason Tang San did not use his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye's ability to boost Big Cat's luck was that it would surely be detected by the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox, which would bring trouble to Big Cat. However, the Lucky Lotus Seed was different; it's a matter of the world's luck, without any man-made traces. As long as Big Cat carried it in its storage item, it would work wonders, making wishes come true.
Thus, today's seemingly coincidental drawing of lots was actually inevitable for Big Cat. It ultimately drew the opponent it wished to face. That being, an existence that exerted a mountainous pressure over the entire Lion Demon Clan.
Without overcoming this mountain, the Lion Demon Clan would never have a chance to rise. The previous Golden Lion King perished in a challenge against this very being.
Finally, Big Cat's wish was granted, as it encountered this being in the third match of the elimination round. How could Tang San not be nervous for it?
At this moment, Big Cat's opponent, with an equally icy stare, looked back as if gazing upon a dead man.
This opponent was roughly the same height as Big Cat, over three meters tall, with a robust and imposing frame covered in dark gold fur. Looking more like a monster than a human, but this did not mean it wasn't strong—those who knew of its existence understood how terrifying its strength could be.
This being had a title, the Ferocious Tiger King. Yes, from the Tiger Demon Clan. Also, the current ruler of the Tiger Demon Line, the contemporary Tiger King.
The White Tiger Great Demon King existed beyond the bounds of any tribe; its true descendants, those who inherited its White Tiger Bloodline, were only Su Qin and Pretty Girl, mother and daughter. But the White Tiger Great Demon King had a different relationship with the Peacock Demon Clan. Although it was the patron saint of the Tiger Demon Clan, since there was only itself as a White Tiger, the Tiger Demon Clan did not recognize its human-bloodline descendants. Thus, even as an Emperor, the White Tiger could not pass on its mantle to Su Qin. Su Qin herself, because of the purity level of her bloodline, couldn't advance her cultivation base to higher realms, with Demon King being her peak.
After leaving her homeland for many years due to her relationship with the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor, Su Qin had yet to return, and thus the White Tiger Great Demon King had always lacked a successor.
The Ferocious Tiger King became famous 500 years ago, next to the White Tiger Great Demon King as the strongest in the Tiger Demon Line, and the most powerful current member of the Golden Tiger Line.
The previous Golden Tiger who lost in battle a few days ago was its own brother. Compared in cultivation base, however, they were not on the same level.
The Ferocious Tiger King's most glorious record was once challenging the White Tiger Great Demon King. Tiger Demons, due to the existence of the White Tiger Great Demon King, were not allowed to have another Emperor, as there was no vacancy for an Emperor's position. Therefore, it chose to challenge the White Tiger Great Demon King. Although it failed, it managed to retreat unharmed from the claws of the White Tiger Great Demon King.
