The Divine Urban Physician

When they heard this, they were all astonished and looked at Ye Chen in disbelief.

Ye Chen maintained a calm expression on his face, and it did not appear that he was forcing himself to act that way.

How was this possible?

Ye Chen’s reaction was unusual.

Not only did this individual not seem to care about the situation, but he even took the initiative to inquire about the bet?

Was this person truly foolish?

They regarded Ye Chen with peculiar expressions, and a strange feeling began to arise in Bai Shan’s heart. He sensed that Ye Chen was not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

This was too abnormal!

However, he did not dwell on the thought. Even if Ye Chen possessed unique insight, so what?

The corners of Bai Shan’s mouth twisted into a trace of a cold smile.

Without wasting any time, Bai Shan’s gaze sharpened, and an invisible pressure emanated from him, subtly pressing down on Ye Chen. He spoke in a deep voice, ”Ordinary bets are not even a game for us. To strengthen our bonds of friendship, let’s have an even higher bet today. What do you say?”

Ye Chen smiled coldly. He was fully confident that the object the Demon Emperor referred to was indeed the one he had chosen.

Why was this the case?

An ordinary person’s spiritual sense might not detect the differences between spiritual beasts.

However, was Ye Chen an ordinary person?

He possessed the Mental Demon Body, and the quality of his soul power was significantly stronger than that of typical cultivators. Furthermore, his soul power had already exceeded the level of a Sealed Gate realm expert!

With such a formidable spiritual sense, Ye Chen had completely figured out the abilities of these spiritual beasts.

Ye Chen disregarded Bai Shan’s pressure and nodded slightly. ”No problem. Let us commence then.”

After stating this, he casually picked up the spirit wine beside him and took a sip. He then picked up a piece of demonic beast meat with his chopsticks and placed it in his mouth, wearing a relaxed expression.

This time, they were genuinely taken aback, and the atmosphere suddenly turned silent.

Soon, their expressions shifted slightly, as if they had realized something. Their eyes darkened, and they regarded Ye Chen with a fierce glare.

”Brother Ye, while this is merely a game, you must treat it with seriousness. After all, if you go back on your word, it will be unbecoming of you. Such a person will certainly not be welcomed in our Southern Region. We might even have reasons to question your identity and interrogate you. Do you understand this?”

Ye Chen looked at the man with disdain in his eyes. He found the threat in his words to be laughable.

Interrogation? If these individuals truly attacked Ye Chen, he would not be overly concerned. With his current strength, these people were merely weaklings he could easily eliminate.

However, there was no necessity to create a conflict at this moment.

He swiftly waved his hand and placed the bag containing the Southern Region Saint Stones that Ge Qing had provided him on the table. With a cold smile, he remarked, ”You appear to be worried that I cannot afford it?”

”There are one hundred Saint Stones in this bag. You need not worry that I will not repay this trivial amount. However, I am uncertain if you dare to put up your own bet against these one hundred Saint Stones.”

When they heard this, their faces contorted with anger. Their eyes locked onto Ye Chen. The spiritual energy enveloping their bodies surged, and the atmosphere instantly turned frigid.

How could they not be infuriated?

When their eyes landed on the bag Ye Chen had placed on the table, greed flashed across their eyes.

Ye Chen casually withdrew one hundred Saint Stones, so they could easily imagine how astonishing Ye Chen’s wealth was.

If he were an ordinary person, it would not be worth their time to risk killing him for his treasures. However, the wealth Ye Chen displayed had already captured their interest, and they were contemplating whether it was worth the consequences.

As their auras intensified and their killing intent grew stronger, focusing their pressure on Ye Chen, a commanding shout suddenly rang out.

”Enough!”

The group was momentarily stunned. They retracted their auras and turned to face the source of the voice.

It was Bai Shan’s voice.

Bai Shan fixed his gaze on Ye Chen. His expression flickered several times before he smiled and said to Ye Chen, ”Little brother, we have underestimated you. Very well, we shall proceed with this bet!”

As he spoke, his gaze swept fiercely over his subordinates. The others could not help but tremble.

Bai Shan understood that since Ye Chen could effortlessly produce this amount, there had to be a formidable force behind him.

If an ordinary genius were to disappear in the Southern Region, it would be easy to conceal. However, what if it were from the top-tier forces in other regions?

If that was the case, the Southern Region might need to pay a huge price to account for the loss of that genius.

Without further ado, Bai Shan took out a bag and placed it on the table. He then glared at the few people standing behind him, commanding, ”What are you still standing there for? Present the stakes. Do not bring shame to the Southern Region. Do you wish for Little Brother Ye to look down upon you?”

In the end, they steeled their resolve and placed their bags of Saint Stones on the table!

Bai Shan nodded in approval. As he savored the wine, he raised his hand toward the arena, releasing a beam of light. He shouted loudly, ”Begin!”

Moments later, the light landed on the arena. The five spiritual beasts, who had previously been calm, suddenly reacted. They raised their heads and neighed as they charged forward with great fervor.

These spiritual beasts had undergone specialized training, so they naturally responded to the stimulation of the technique.

Everyone looked at the stage, their eyes brimming with excitement.

The one at the very front was the holy spiritual beast that Bai Shan had selected. Its speed was incredibly swift, almost akin to lightning!

The other spiritual beasts lagged slightly behind, but still managed to keep pace.

As for the Dark Ray Beast that Ye Chen had chosen?

It slowly trailed behind the spiritual beasts, running unsteadily. In comparison to the other spiritual beasts, it resembled a tortoise crawling.

Moreover, as the speed of the spiritual beasts increased, the distance between them widened even further.

One of them chuckled at Ye Chen. ”Brother Ye, you truly possess good taste.”

”We were taken aback by your bold words earlier. We assumed you had a deeper understanding of spiritual beasts, but now?”

”You might not realize that displaying wealth is not seen as courageous, but rather foolish in the eyes of people from the Southern Region. Hahahaha!”

”Do not say that. Observe that dark ray beast. It is running at quite a pace. It was almost halfway behind the other spiritual beasts, right? Who knows, there may even be a chance to turn the tide!”

In response to their remarks, Ye Chen merely sipped his drink and paid no mind to their words.

The spiritual beasts had already covered two-thirds of the racetrack, and the dark ray beast still lagged behind the other spiritual beasts by more than half the distance.

The few of them exchanged glances and could not help but silently signal Bai Shan.

Bai Shan understood that these individuals were inquiring whether he intended to intervene.

Their trump card required a certain amount of preparation time. If they did not act soon, it would be too late to utilize it later.
