Chapter 1058 Betting On A Winner
Back at the Department of Justice, Jared’s body was shining with golden rays. Then, a visible dragon-like aura circulated in the room before it entered Jared’s body again.
Jared had his eyes shut tight, trying hard to control and guide the Power of Dragons. Although he was already in possession of the power, he found it difficult to control it, so he had to do everything within his capacity to tame it.
The Power of Dragons kept flowing around within him, sucking away all the spiritual energy Jared already had. Jared harnessed his Focus Technique to create a powerful suction force from within his elixir field to absorb the Power of Dragons, but it seemed to Jared that the Power of Dragons had a mind of its own.
It kept stubbornly resisting the siphoning force coming from the elixir field and refused to comply.
Just as Jared felt his elixir field was running out of power, the Dragon Ring on his hand suddenly gave off a bright light that lasted for a long time.
The light pierced through the surrounding, shining directly on the Power of Dragons, causing it to submit to Jared’s attempt to control it. Before Jared did anything else, the Power of Dragons had already gone into his elixir field.
Jared continued employing his Focus Technique, and his elixir field began internalizing the Power of Dragons. Suddenly, Jared felt that he was elevated to a whole new level.
He felt his body was shooting through levels of barrier with the help of the Power of Dragons. The degree to which it enabled him to score so many breakthroughs was unfathomable.
When the first ray of sunshine broke through from the window into the room, Jared had finally finished the whole session of imbibing the Power of Dragons
He opened his eyes again, still unable to believe how energized his body was feeling. Within just a day, he had broken through to the fifth phase of the golden elixir. He could feel that the golden elixir in his body had got marked improvement.
From the aura that he gave off, it was unequivocal that he had become a Top Level Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Knock! Knock!
“Mr. Chance!” Theodore shouted from the door. “It’s the big day today!”
“Coming!”
Jared sat up and opened the door.
Theodore was amazed when he felt the aura coming from Jared.
“Mr. Chance! This is incredible!” he praised.
Although Theodore was not highly skilled himself, someone like him was still able to sense that the oomph from Jared was no child’s play. Jared had undergone a tremendous improvement just within a day, so much so that his aura was completely different.
Jared smiled when he saw how shocked Theodore was. Actually, even he himself did not expect the Power of Dragons to be so powerful.
“Let’s get going.”
After that, the two headed for the arena.
By the time they reached, a multitude of onlookers had already gathered at the stage the Warriors Alliance had put up just for this fight.
Among the spectators were all the luminaries from the martial arts world in Jadeborough as well as those from other places.
Some of them even bet with one another on who would emerge as the winner of this combat.
“Who’s interested in placing a bet? Ten times payout for every unit wagered on Jared Chance, and one for every unit for Mr. Edgar!”
A loud voice blasted over and over again from the loudspeaker.
Since Edgar was acknowledged as a prodigy in the martial arts world, there was a higher possibility of him winning. Considering the fact that he trained under Derrell and that the Deragon family were a family of immense influence, Edgar had a higher chance of victory, and hence the payout for his bet was lower.
“Mr. Edgar for me.”
“Me too.”
An overwhelming majority of people bet on Edgar, while only a handful wagered on Jared winning the contest.
Colin, who had been watching all this, was gritting his teeth in frustration. “Foolish punks! They’re in for a painful loss. Mr. Chance is gonna win, and Edgar will lose for sure.”
“Col!” Leviathan called out to his son. “I’m betting on Mr. Chance!”
