Chapter 241: Chapter 201: The Golden Throne’s Hidden Rewards: [Winged Dogman Legion] and [Heart of the Earth]

"What? Is there a problem?" Zhang Yi’s tone remained perfectly calm.

But in Hu Jinxin’s eyes, Zhang Yi’s attitude—sitting high atop the Golden Throne, looking down on him as if he were nothing—was utterly infuriating.

Hu Jinxin roared, "You ask what’s the matter? I’m telling you, from this moment on, no one in heaven or on earth can save you! Unless you get on your knees right now and beg for my forgiveness! Otherwise, you can just watch as I slaughter every last member of your Clan in the Divine Realm!"

Seeing that Zhang Yi still had no reaction, seemingly dismissing him with contempt, Hu Jinxin slammed his hand on his personal terminal. He pulled out five Five-star Divine Domain Cards and roared viciously, "I’m wagering five Five-star Divine Domain Cards to immediately challenge you for that Golden Throne!"

Immediately, the five Divine Domain Cards he produced flew into the space between them.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret. What a shame. I was hoping this hot-tempered but seemingly weak Hu Jinxin would stall for more time. That would have blocked the genius students from other provinces—ones I’ve already gathered intelligence on—who were close behind.

After all, because of their initial positions, the geniuses from the other provinces had arrived at the Golden Throne area a moment too late. Although they were only a few seconds behind and had missed their chance, that didn’t mean their pride would allow them to believe they were unworthy of it. But who could have guessed that his placid expression would only provoke Hu Jinxin instead?

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yi composed himself, his gaze falling upon the five Five-star Divine Domain Cards Hu Jinxin had wagered for the challenge. Since the challenge is inevitable, I might as well see just how much power this guy actually has. This is the same person who started sending harassing messages right after the provincial exams and is now acting so arrogant.

When the other geniuses saw Hu Jinxin, who had been blocking their path to Zhang Yi’s Golden Throne, finally make his challenge with five Five-star Divine Domain Cards, they had no choice but to temporarily shift their focus, however reluctantly. The geniuses from the other provinces of the Yanhuang Federation turned to look at the other Golden Thrones where challenges with more lopsided power dynamics were underway, or cast their gazes down toward the Silver Thrones.

[Do you accept the challenge for the Golden Throne from student Hu Jinxin?]

[Challenge Wager: Five-star Divine Domain Card x5.]

[Yes/No]

A prompt instantly sounded from his personal terminal. Zhang Yi saw the exasperated look on his opponent’s face, a look that screamed his desire to settle everything in a single God War. He could tell this wasn’t an act.

Zhang Yi was in no hurry. After all, I have a full five minutes to decide. I might as well use this time to see what kind of Five-star Divine Domain Cards he’s put up as his stake.

As Zhang Yi shifted his gaze, the five Five-star Divine Domain Cards his opponent had wagered came into view.

Common Five-star Divine Domain Card: [Large Kobold Tribe Miners x3,000];

Uncommon Five-star Divine Domain Card: [Winged Kobold Legion x2,000];

Common Five-star Skill Card: [Giant Demon Bloodthirst Skill];

Rare Five-star Skill Card: [Land of Chaos];

Precious Five-star Divine Domain Card: [Heart of the Earth];

Zhang Yi scanned the cards. Three of the five had little value. Only [Winged Kobold Legion x2,000] and [Heart of the Earth] were of any real worth.

The first, [Winged Kobold Legion x2,000], contained a very special type of Kobold. These special Kobolds were born with leathery wings, giving them the ability of temporary flight. Unlike ordinary Kobolds who fought on the ground with weapons, Winged Kobolds preferred to fly high with stones and drop them on their enemies. But while Winged Kobolds had an extra pair of leathery wings, their melee combat strength was no different from that of their ordinary counterparts. Their only praiseworthy trait was that they were one of the few types of Kobolds that could fly.

Seeing this card made Zhang Yi think of Hong Tianyi. Hong Tianyi’s Kobold Clan didn’t have any Winged Kobolds yet. If I get my hands on this card and just dangle it in front of Hong Tianyi, he’ll definitely buy it off me for a high price!

As for the other card, [Heart of the Earth], it was the same type as the [Earth Crystal] card Zhang Yi had seen before. Both were Divine Domain Cards capable of directly expanding a Divine Realm’s area. And no Lord of the Divine Realm would ever complain about having more space in their domain.

After reviewing the five Five-star Divine Domain Cards Hu Jinxin had wagered, Zhang Yi took out five of his own to match the bet. These included the three Five-star Divine Domain Cards he had purchased upon entering the University Alliance Training Camp on Instructor Li Qiantian’s advice: [Rugged Ore Vein], [Wind Speaker’s Blessing], and [Solid Barrier]. To make up the five, Zhang Yi had to add a knowledge-type Five-star Divine Domain Card and a resource-type Five-star Divine Domain Card from his own collection. These two were the least valuable cards in his stored collection. Losing them would have little impact on the future development of his Divine Realm.

As Zhang Yi finalized his decision and his thoughts returned to the present, Hu Jinxin’s taunts once again reached his ears, "No way, no way? Don’t tell me someone’s been thinking for this long and can’t even cough up five Five-star Divine Domain Cards?"

Hu Jinxin saw Zhang Yi scrutinizing the five cards he’d put up but not making a move and assumed Zhang Yi had gotten cold feet. Greatly pleased, Hu Jinxin taunted him again, the acne on his face looking all the more hideous as his features twisted into a sneer.

Zhang Yi snapped out of his thoughts, having no desire to waste any more words on such a contemptible clown. Otherwise, his opponent would surely drag him down to his own intellectual level and then beat him with experience.

Zhang Yi calmly raised his hand and selected "Yes"!

The next moment, five Five-star Divine Domain Cards of his own flew from his hand. It was the best possible rebuttal to Hu Jinxin.

[Challenge agreed upon by both students!]

[All conditions of the University Alliance Training Camp have been met. Challenge initiated! Connecting to God War...]

[God War Duration: Three Days (Reality to God War Time Ratio: 1:24)]

[Battlefield Generated: Hilly Terrain]

[Preparation Time: Three hours (Divine Realm time)]

[Combatants: Zhang Yi (Donghuang Province) vs. Hu Jinxin (Zhongjing Province)]

[Force Deployment: 10,000 Clan members per side]

[Victory/Defeat Conditions: The God War ends when one side’s number of combat-capable Clan members falls below 20%, or when both parties agree to a ceasefire.]

With both sides having wagered five Five-star Divine Domain Cards, the God War officially began!

In the center of the Starry Hall, five screens that had previously been dark were now lit up. As the God War between Zhang Yi and Hu Jinxin for the Golden Throne began, a sixth screen flared to life. Every time a screen lit up to display a battle for a Golden Throne, it drew the attention of a large crowd of instructors.

The students already competing for thrones of various tiers had no time to look back. If they had, they would have discovered that the instructors who led them here had now all gathered together on the main platform to watch the spectacle of their battles for the thrones.

As the God War began, Zhang Yi’s consciousness swiftly entered his Divine Realm. This was the first time Zhang Yi had ever attempted to log into his Divine Realm directly. He was at a weak point between Subspace and reality, and he was doing it without the aid of a Divine Domain Connection Pod.
