Chapter 972: Answer the Challenge

son.While Ou Yang Lan was just an outsider, she was ultimately kicked out.Facing her unruly younger siblings, Ouyang Lan had grown accustomed to it. She didn't argue with them, and instead came to ope...At the same time, everyone else present also saw the contents of the battle declaration.

As a prominent tycoon in Hong Kong, Gao Jiajun naturally knew of Beigong Jing's prowess.

Over the years, he has personally witnessed countless grand masters coming to challenge him, only to be defeated and scattered like fallen flowers, some dying, others injured. In short, no one has been able to withstand him.

Now Bei Gongjing has directly issued a challenge to Ye Bufan, and he immediately said nervously, "Xiaofan, you must not agree!"

In his eyes, though Ye Bufan performed extremely powerfully, he was still a little young after all.

In 10 years, he might be able to surpass Bei Gongjing, but he is definitely not his opponent right now.

Zheng Huafie chimed in, "That's right, boss. You mustn't be impulsive. Bei Gongjing is truly formidable."

No one else spoke, but all eyes were on Ye Bufan, eagerly awaiting the final outcome.

Zheng Huabing swallowed nervously. He was incredibly anxious, fearing Ye Bufan would be afraid to fight and run away. Then he would have no chance for revenge.

Ye Bufan glanced at the crowd and smiled faintly: "Why are you all so nervous It's just a small Bei Gongjing. There's nothing to make a fuss about, I already said I would take care of him."

Then he grabbed a pen and, in bold strokes on the tactical board, wrote two powerful characters: "Engage!"

He tossed the tactics to Zheng Huabing: "Go back and tell Bei Gongjing and Zheng Huayang, tomorrow at noon, I will meet them for battle."

"Ye, I hope you keep your word."

Zheng Huabing was filled with joy, leaving Gao's house happily and excitedly with a successful tactical plan.

He had just left, and Gao Jiajun stomped his foot and said, "Xiaofan, you were too impulsive."

Zheng Huafie also wore a worried expression: "Boss, Bei Gong Jing did say to allow you to hire people. I think we should still invite some experts from China."

Ye Bufan smiled at her: "What, you don't believe me"

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that Bei Gongjing is too powerful. His cultivation of magic has reached the pinnacle."

"Don't worry, I won't lose."

Ye Bufan was indeed extremely confident. If the opponent were a martial artist at the peak of the Heavenly Rank, he might have to consider it, but a spellcasting master was a completely different story.

He practiced a cultivation technique, and in terms of magical arts mastery, he was no worse than the top magic masters. Therefore, he had absolute confidence in this battle.

Moreover, he still had one trump card up his sleeve. He hadn't used the mid-grade spirit stones in his hand yet, which could further improve his cultivation. At that time, he would be even more invincible.

"Alright, everyone, you've all had a long day, so go back and rest. I need to make time for some cultivation too."

Seeing that things were settled, no one said anything more.

Gao Jiajun prepared a separate room for him to practice, Rudolf and the others guarded outside, and Ye Bufan began his closed-door training.

The Zheng family, Zheng Huayang saw Zheng Huabing brought back the battle book, suddenly a surge of ecstasy.

Since Ye Bufan dared to accept the challenge, his death knell has sounded.

He summoned his butler and said, "Immediately mobilize all the media on Hong Kong Island. Spread this story everywhere, make sure everyone knows that my godfather will have a decisive battle with Ye Bufan on Tianlei Mountain."

Yes, master.

The housekeeper agreed with a nod and immediately arranged for it. It was already late afternoon now, and they had to make the most of their time to achieve the effect Zheng Huayang desired.

Zheng Huabing said with some bewilderment, "Big brother, is it necessary to make such a big fuss"

Of course it's necessary. I want the entire Hong Kong Island to know about this battle, and let everyone see the strength of the Zheng family. That way, in the future, no stray cats or dogs will dare jump out and provoke us.

Zheng Huayang said this, but in his heart he had another thought.

Today's financial war, the entire Hong Kong upper class is watching Gao and Zheng family's stocks, so his crushing defeat doesn't need to be publicized, everyone knows it.

Now, to salvage the Zheng family's reputation and secure their position on Hong Kong Island, all hopes rest on Bei Gong Jing.

This is why the bigger this matter gets stirred up, the better. By having Bei Gongjing slay Ye Bufan, Zheng family's prestige can be re-established.

As the first family on Hong Kong Island, the Chengs' efficiency is still extremely high.

Just an hour after the news that Beigong Jing would challenge Ye Bufan at Tianlei Mountain spread, it began to circulate throughout Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island immediately erupted in excitement.

"What's going on I heard Master Beigong Jing is challenging someone named Ye Bufan to a duel. What qualifications does that guy have, how could he possibly be Master's opponent"

"I heard it was Master Bei Gong Jing who issued the challenge, and that kid actually accepted! Isn't he courting death"

To my knowledge, the master hasn't formally challenged anyone to a duel in ten years. This is the first time.

"Yes, back when Master Bei Gong Jing advanced to the ranks of Law Mastery, he struck down a Heavenly Rank martial artist with a bolt of lightning. Since then, no one has dared to defy his majesty..."

I have to say, Bei Gongjing's popularity in Hong Kong is incredibly high. For a time, the only topic everyone in the city was discussing was the battle between Bei Gongjing and Ye Bufan.

Compared to the general public, members of the upper class have access to more information.

The feud between the Gao family, Huang family, and Zheng family was well-known throughout high society.

A few days ago, Ye Bufan led people directly to Huang Tianling's door. Since then, Huang Tianling has disappeared, shifting everyone's attention to this sudden young man.

Subsequently, Ye Bufan brought a large group of people to make a scene at Dihao Club, smashed Zheng's venue, and directly confronted Zheng Huayang, and then left safely, attracting even more attention.

To know that on Hong Kong Island, directly confronting the Zheng family is unprecedented.

To their surprise, Ye Bufan then caused a commotion at the Zheng family, it is said that he even killed an elder with a Heaven Rank cultivation. Afterward, Zheng Huayang was so frightened that he wouldn't leave his house.

At first, people thought it was just a highly skilled martial artist. However, the stock price of Gao's family soared while Zheng's family's stock plunged to the bottom.

People instantly realized this young man was far more complex than they initially thought.

Now that he directly challenges Beigong Jing, everyone's interest is piqued.

Even some have rushed to Tianleishan overnight, seizing advantageous positions for viewing the battle tomorrow.

For such a major event, the gambling industry naturally wouldn't miss out. Moreover, Hong Kong has always been known for gambling, with legalized casinos big and small numbering in the dozens.

Of course, the first thing to do when opening a market is to carefully assess the strengths of both sides. After much deliberation among the bosses of several major casinos, the final odds were finally set.

Bei Gongjing won, with odds of 1.5 to 1, and Ye Bufan won with odds of 2 to 1.

It has to be said that the odds are set with extreme caution, after all, this is the first time the two sides have clashed, and there is little reference material available.

Beigong Jing has a great reputation and is more likely to win.

But Ye Bufan, knowing that Beigong Jing was the backer of the Zheng family, still dared to move against them. He must not be a simple character. Therefore, this bet is more secure.

The odds opened immediately causing a huge response, with people starting to bet more or less.

Although that so-called Beigong Jing is quite famous, Xiao Fan will definitely win. I have faith in him.

"Of course, I think Xiao Fan can win too."

I'm putting all my money on Xiao Fan, making those casinos bankrupt.

The news reached the Gao family, and women like Su Ruyu and An Yimo expressed their support for Ye Bufan and prepared to place bets. However, they suddenly discovered that they had no money on hand.ff the stage and being completely naked.Even with a thick skin, his face flushed hot. He hurriedly took out a set of clothes from his storage ring and put them on before instantly vanishing.Ye Bufan l...
