Chapter 638 Not Deadly
Let me introduce you.
Xiao Weiqing said, "Let's see if we can find out any information about Qi Hao."
The information from the Holy Land mentions that Qihao has participated in fighting competitions as a contestant, once three years ago and once four months ago.
"Mr. Qin, this way please."
The two came to the back of the crowd.
Ade pointed to the virtual figure that appeared in mid-air and said:
"Mr. Qin, these are the contestants who participated in today's exhibition match, a total of 64. Their records are listed above, including the number of matches they played and their win rate."
Xiao Weiqing glanced at them and saw that most of them had participated in 20 or 30 games, a few had participated in more than 40 games, and none had participated in 50 games. Their win rates varied.
"What kind of event is this exhibition match?"
Xiao Weiqing asked.
Ad replied in a low voice, "It's a non-lethal fighting match."
"Just not fatal?"
Xiao Weiqing was shocked. When did a match that wasn't fatal become an exhibition match?
"That's right, Mr. Qin. It's not necessarily fatal, but it can't be guaranteed 100%. In fact, at least 20% of the participants die in the exhibition matches every day."
Xiao Weiqing nodded slightly and asked again, "Since there are exhibition matches, are there any other matches?"
"some."
"The champion of each day's exhibition match will receive a spot in an unrestricted fighting tournament."
"Unlimited?"
Ad explained, "It means that both sides can use any means necessary, as long as they defeat or even kill their opponent."
"Unrestricted combat sports competitions are held once a month, and the mortality rate is over 50%."
Xiao Weiqing's eyes narrowed. A 50% chance of death? Who are these people participating in the competition?
What reward is there for the winner?
If there were no irresistible rewards, would anyone really not value their own life?
If you really don't care, why bother coming to the Land of Ashes to eke out a living?
Speaking of rewards.
Ade's eyes lit up slightly, and he immediately said:
"Mr. Qin, the rewards for the no-holds-barred fighting competition are undoubtedly generous, including money, treasures, and everything in between. More importantly, there will be a change in status."
"What changes?"
"Becoming a permanent resident of the Land of Ashes means you won't have to pay any taxes or fees, and you'll become a superior being. Humans, demons, and machines will all recognize this status, and you'll receive the protection of the three races' Undying Realm experts."
"If Mr. Qin is interested, you can come and take a look tomorrow night. The no-holds-barred fighting tournament will be held tomorrow night."
Xiao Weiqing asked, "Can we just come directly?"
"Mr. Qin, a certain fee needs to be paid."
"How much?"
"Wireless fighting tournament, general admission ticket, 2 each."
Ade operated the communication device in his hand a couple of times, and the virtual interface of the fighting arena appeared, showing a standard circular fighting arena.
The so-called "regular tickets" are just the seats in the outer rings.
"How much does a seat there cost?"
Xiao Weiqing pointed to the inner circle of the fighting arena and asked.
"Tickets for the inner field range from 2 to 5," Ade said slowly. "There are also 10000 VIP boxes, each costing 10 cosmic coins."
"That's really not cheap."
Xiao Weiqing's lips curled up.
"Mr. Qin, it's absolutely worth the price. One ticket lets you see 15 life-or-death battles, and each one costs only 7 universe coins."
"Only 15 games?"
"The exhibition matches can produce about 30 players a month, so there must be at least 20 or 30 matches in the unrestricted fighting tournament."
Xiao Weiqing asked.
Ade shook his head and explained softly, "Mr. Qin, that's true, but in reality, not every winner of an exhibition match is willing to participate in the no-holds-barred fighting tournament. In addition, some winners are injured, so there aren't 30 people in the no-holds-barred fighting tournament."
"I see."
"I'd like to watch tonight's exhibition match. Where can I buy tickets? How much do they cost?"
Ade bowed respectfully and said, "Mr. Qin, I can help you buy the tickets. I don't know what kind you need, but the tickets for the exhibition match are only one-tenth the price of the unlimited fighting match."
"If Mr. Qin really enjoys watching combat sports, you could consider getting an annual membership. This would not only save you money, but also give you other privileges."
How much does an annual membership cost?
"150 million a year."
"What kind of privileges?" Xiao Weiqing asked curiously. 150 million universe coins, another outrageous demand.
"Annual members can watch any competition, whether it's an exhibition match, a no-holds-barred fighting match, or even the ultimate fighting match at the end of the year, which is a match that even experts at the Immortal Realm will come to watch."
Xiao Weiqing raised an eyebrow. "Are there really that many people watching the match? Even Undying Realm experts are here?"
"That's for sure. You'll understand once you experience it tonight."
"The fighting arena now has more than 5 members, and with the addition of the demon race and the mechanical race, the total number of members exceeds 10."
"Okay, you can help me get one."
Xiao Weiqing nodded.
Ade was overjoyed upon hearing this. "Okay, Mr. Qin, how would you like to pay? Here..."
"I understand, but I don't have that much cash. Is this okay?"
Xiao Weiqing opened his palm, and several milky-white stones appeared.
"Originium?"
"Yes, please wait a moment."
Ade said excitedly, unable to hide his joy, knowing he could earn a lot from this deal.
Ad took the Originium, turned and left, but after taking a few steps, he turned back.
"Mr. Qin, excuse me, could you please show me your ID card?"
"Take it."
Xiao Weiqing handed the identity token to Ade, not afraid that Ade would dare to play any tricks.
Ade left.
A few minutes later.
Ade returned to Xiao Weiqing's side with a happy expression.
"Mr. Qin, your ID card indicates that you are now a VIP member of the fighting tournament. You are given 10 fighting coins, which you can use for betting."
Xiao Weiqing stroked his identity card. "How much is 10 fighting coins?"
"Mr. Qin, it's a 1:1 exchange."
"Can I exchange it for Cosmic Currency?"
Ade chuckled awkwardly, "This one as a gift won't do."
"However, you can gamble, and the winnings can be exchanged for cosmic coins normally."
Xiao Weiqing sneered, "That's interesting. You guys are trying to get me into a habit, aren't you?"
Ade felt a little embarrassed when he realized he'd been exposed; he'd just made a profit on this deal.
This is a common practice in fighting arenas; otherwise, why would they give away 10 fighting coins for no reason?
"Alright, the exhibition match is about to start, take me to see it."
The crowd in the hall began to converge in a certain direction; clearly, the competition was about to begin.
"Yes."
"Mr. Qin, please follow me. We'll use the VIP lane; we don't need to squeeze in with them."
Ade led Xiao Weiqing upstairs and through another passage.
This passageway was larger and more spacious than the main hallway, but there were very few people there.
It's just a few minutes' walk.
Xiao Weiqing arrived at the door of a private room numbered 2101.
"Mr. Qin, please. The private room is fully prepared, with food, drinks, and entertainment all available. We hope you have a great time."
After saying that, Ade withdrew.
