Chapter 611: Chapter 396 Wayne Malvin Just Won’t Admit Defeat_2

The main event finally began, with Wayne Malvin betting on one of the Tier-5 "Hundred Illusion Butterflies" to win, while Owen Bertram strategically bet on the opposite outcome, placing his wager on another Tier-5 "Elephant-Tortoise Insect". It seemed as though the cumbersome and flightless Elephant-Tortoise Insect was naturally at a disadvantage against the Hundred Illusion Butterfly. However, inexplicably, after a while, the Hundred Illusion Butterfly’s initial advantage began to falter, and despite several attempts, it failed to regain control and ultimately lost the match!

The moment the Hundred Illusion Butterfly hit the arena floor, a huge uproar resounded throughout the Insect Arena. Cheers erupted from those who had bet successfully, commingling with the sounds of regretful swearing from those who had lost. However, despite the excitement, the clamor of the day came to an end.

Consequently, all the noise outside appeared to fade away for Wayne Malvin. His eyes were lost in a daze, the only thought left in his mind: Owen Bertram truly has me at a disadvantage... whenever I encounter him, I fail...

The bets he lost tonight added up to nearly seven million Spirit Jade, indeed a hefty sum. But his family would still be able to cover it. However, this realization of "Unfavourable encounters with Owen resulting in Defeat" weighed heavily on Malvin’s mind.

Moreover, the whole seven million - even if his father, master of the Central Prison and the Commander Lord, could afford such corruption, such a gratuitous loss would undoubtedly hurt. It was as though he was on the precipice of a calamity and could possibly be... severely punished!

Earlier today, he had the status of Lord Algernon in the Fifth Great Domain, the second on the B-list; yet he needed to be disciplined by his own family... This was humiliating!

As the Insect Arena came to a close and the audience gradually began to disperse, the lucky winners gathered at the betting counter, waving their tickets and shouting, their faces brimming with joy.

The noise brought Wayne back to reality. Lifting his head, he saw Owen Bertram pulling up a chair and sitting by the window, looking down at him with a smug look of victory on his face.

Hate surged within Wayne, his resentment toward Owen filled to the brim. With a jump, he landed in the middle of the arena!

The twelve giant Array pillars in this arena had already dimmed, and the Insect Arena match was naturally over, as every launch consumed a large amount of Spirit Jade.

"I bet my life on this!" Wayne pointed at Owen Bertram: "If you have guts, come down and fight! If I win, you’ll pay off my six million in debt, and if I lose, my life is yours!"

The heavens’ chosen of the same ranking panicked: "Why does it have to come to this..."

However, Owen Bertram sneered: "You are stooping so low".

Owen had already won, what use would your crummy life be to him? Moreover, if you die, the debt will be written off. Wouldn’t that cheat the Insect Arena out of six million, which will essentially be bad debt?

Everyone knew that even if Wayne Malvin really lost, in consideration of Colby Dominic’s honor, Owen couldn’t actually kill him. However, if Owen Bertram lost, the six million spirit Jade he just won would have to be paid out.

But Wayne Malvin wouldn’t let up: "Just say if you dare or not! You’re the first on the A-list, I’m second on the B-list, aren’t you up for this bet?"

The gamblers who hadn’t left yet saw the forthcoming action and were suddenly intrigued, gathering around the arena, chattering and laughing.

After weighing pros and cons in his mind, Owen Bertram stepped down and walked into the arena, instructing his servant: "Activate the Array and put the cost on my account."

The twelve Array pillars hummed and burst into light once again, enveloping the entire arena.

Owen Bertram, looking at Wayne Malvin across the arena, declared: "This battle is to teach you a lesson on behalf of Lord Liam! But rest assured, since I have stepped in, I will abide by everything you’ve said!"

Wayne Malvin, disregarding everything, roared and lunged with his sword, alongside which was a Tier-5 Flying Sword, powered by the Bright Jade Sword Heart!

Owen Bertram stood his ground and proudly declared: "I’ll just stand here and allow you to use all your methods. If you manage to make me move a single step, I’ll admit defeat — so as to avoid being accused of bullying you!"

He raised his palm and swiftly brought it down, the Infinite Sword equipment raining down, surrounding Wayne’s flying sword, forming a Sword Stele, suppressing the Flying Sword underneath it heavily.

When Wayne energized the Bright Jade Sword Heart and tried to resonate with the Flying Sword to break free from the shackles, despite trying several times, the Sword Stele was completely immovable.

Wayne, frustrated, let out a deafening roar. As he clenched his fists, a shining Battle Armor enveloped him. Made to mimic a Demon Beast, the Battle Armor not only greatly increased his defense, but every part of his body also turned into a weapon.

He leaped into the air and pounced towards Owen, reaching out his palm like a dragon claw, grabbing at Owen’s head.

Owen looked up and flicked a sword qi from his fingers.

Whoosh——

The sword qi flowed like a cloud, swiftly circling around Wayne. Wayne’s armor, which was of Tier-5 and crafted with a great amount of precious materials and beast souls, making it excessively expensive, cracked under the effect of Owen’s sword qi. Before Wayne could even reach Owen, his armor fell apart due to extensive damage and fell off.

Owen stood still as ever: "This is the best your father could prepare for you? It’s a disappointment. He has held the position of the Central Prison Commander all these years and has failed to accumulate any worthy items."

Wayne grasped a talisman in his palm, taking the shape of a carp, and as soon as it appeared, a profound Dao melody began to resonate around him. He injected spiritual energy to activate the Jade Talisman. With a thunderous sound, a huge phantom fish with a dragon’s head and a fish’s body appeared above Wayne’s head.
