Returning To The Cultivation World Through A Game Chapter 72

"And I want us to bet our entire fortune. Do you dare?" He added.
Hearing what she said, Qin Tian thought it might be because Luo Shen told her some things. She probably told her that Du Fang wouldn't win.
But that woman is also smart. She obviously believed a lot in Luo Shen, and after hearing Luo Shen's words, she then used that thing to challenge Du Feng.
Du Feng who came over with a confident expression immediately hesitated when he saw the confidence on Gong Yuxian's face. Especially after hearing that Gong Yuxian wanted to bet their entire fortune, he was even more hesitant.
He wasn't stupid, he understood that something was wrong.
He then looked around to see who could beat Du Fang. But when he looked around, all he saw were people's gazes at him.
Those people stared at him with expressions waiting for his answer.
He may have hesitated, but his arrogance made him feel uncomfortable.
"What, are you afraid?" Gong Yuxian continued speaking.
Du Feng finally gritted his teeth. "Who's afraid, but I think our stakes are still not enough."
"I not only want all of your wealth, I also want you to be mine." He said as he looked at Gong Yuxian with a savage expression.
Gong Yuxian immediately showed an angry expression as soon as she heard Du Feng's words.
She pointed at Du Feng with trembling hands.
"Du Feng, you're too far."
Even though she was sure that she won, the request that Du Feng put forward irritated her greatly.
"What, are you afraid?" Du Feng repeated Gong Yuxian's words. He smiled in satisfaction as he saw Gong Yuxian's expression.
"Hmph." Gong Yuxian snorted. "Bullshit. But if you lose, I want you to kowtow every time you see me." Said Gong Yuxian.
"..."
Qin Tian, who heard their argument, couldn't help but grumble. "If I have the ability now, I will marry them off."

Du Feng clearly liked Gong Yuxian while Gong Yuxian hated Du Feng for their hostility.
But they have several things in common, one of which is their good looking appearance. Both of them are handsome and beautiful.
If Du Feng was the protagonist of a novel, Gong Yuxian would definitely be conquered by him.
After the bet was approved, Gong Yuxian left immediately.
But Du Feng still couldn't stand still. He kept looking around. He even spread his spiritual sense to the people there. Many looked displeased, but no one dared to protest.
Of course, Qin Tian was not silent. While Du Feng was spreading his spiritual sense, he was doing the same.
His spiritual sense infiltrated Du Feng and Du Fang's storage rings, and he then absorbed the cultivation resources they had.
Until the time the competition finally started, he had managed to absorb 15,000 spiritual energy from their storage rings.
...
Dong... Dong... Dong...
The drum sounded three times in the colosseum.
After which, ten stone platforms suddenly appeared in the middle in the colosseum.
And the ten stone platforms had a formation covering them.
Whooss...
After which, a middle-aged man with a large body suddenly appeared above the colosseum.
The man did not let go of his aura but only his presence that turned the entire colosseum into silence.
He then stared at where the participants were.
"There are ten stone platforms here. Each of you climbs onto one of them according to the final number of your participant number." He says.
After hearing his words, the participants immediately walked over to the stone platform that matched their participant number. The competition rules were already explained when they registered, so no one was confused when they heard the middle-aged man's words.
Qin Tian's participant number was 6789, so he headed for stone platform number 9.
Actually there were quite a lot of players among the audience. But because their cultivation was still low, they couldn't join this competition.

But until now they still hadn't found Qin Tian. In order to see the identity of a player, the other player must look at the person's face. But because there were too many people around Qin Tian while Qin Tian also covered his head with the hood of his robe, they ended up not realizing his existence.
Of course, he would probably be discovered soon if he didn't cover his head. Even though there were some people with white hair there, if he showed his youthful face, he would definitely immediately attract the attention of the people there.
...
As soon as all the participants boarded the stone platforms, the middle aged man flying above spoke once again.
"I will mention the rules of this competition one more time."
"First, all of you will fight each other until only one survives. And the one who survives will advance to the next round."
"You don't need to hold back when fighting. Strike your enemies as if you want to kill them."
"But don't worry, none of you will die. If you can't hold on anymore, the formation will send you out."
"This is all I want to say, now you can start the fight."
Dong... Dong... Dong...
The previous drum sound rang once again.
After that,
Boom... Boom... Boom...
Eruption after eruption erupted above each of the stone platforms as the people released their auras.
After that, people started attacking each other.
Each of the stone platforms had about 1000 participants.
Although the stone platforms were quite large, they were still not large enough to accommodate the strength of cultivators who could span a wide area.
The Dragon Palace had clearly set up a battlefield like that to make the fight even more chaotic.
Only moments after the battle had started, there were already numerous screams of pain on each of those stone platforms.
When the weak met the strong, they only ended up being beaten.
Qin Tian still pretended to be weak, but he avoided strong cultivators. Especially cultivators in the Spiritual Master realm.
There were three Spiritual Master realm cultivators on the stone platform where he was.
And these three were people who had previously followed Du Fang.
They act aggressively and attack whoever comes in front of them.
Du Feng clearly still couldn't calm down, so he ordered his followers to act aggressively to find a dark horse that might beat Du Fang.
....
"Wait a little more." Qin Tian said to himself.
He waited until there were fewer participants on the stone platform.
With the fight being so chaotic, it only took half an hour before 950 people were eliminated. Those who remain are the strongest of all. Their cultivation starts at the seventh to ninth layer of Spiritual Warriors.
After there were only 50 people left, Qin Tian then took out his bow.
And he also took out an arrow. It was one of his ten remaining mortal weapons.
After which, he then looked at one of the three cultivators of the Spiritual Master realm. It was a young man fighting with a spear.
"Well, you will be my first target." Said Qin Tian as he put the arrow in his bow.
He couldn't continue to hide his strength if he wanted to win that competition.
Of course, he also didn't plan on being low-profile forever. There will be times when he leads a group of people to defeat enemy after enemy.
"Huh." He exhaled a breath.
After which, he then jumped into the air.

Tale of Family - Book 1 - WIP
The world is peaceful in 2063. Fusion reactor and Diamon battery had taken care of the energetical problem. Countries were stable. Automation was everywhere. Life wasn't hard anymore, at least not in the United States of Europe. Summer break is about to start and, finally, Zoe will turn 18 and be able to play the game, Binding Fate. A simple video game, a vrmmo, but what swam under its surface wasn't simple. Power, fame and money were but the tip of the iceberg... State: Hiatus because I've an idea for another story. Quick F.A.Q. : - Yuri/female homosexual relation? Yes.- Yaoi/male homosexual relation? Maybe.- Explicit Sexual Content? Maybe.- Full Fledged Tragedy? No. Never, ever ever.- Body Modification/Body Horror? Yes. (Note: what one person think is body horror can be acceptable for someone else. If you want to see to what length I can go, read a bit of The Other Labyrinth. However, I won't go as high as quickly in the body mod/horror, so relax.- Gore? Hell yeah! I love gore! spraying blood and viscera etc...- Torture? Hurgh... maybe? Idk. Not at the start at the very least.- Memory loss/erasing? No, or at least not permanently. I basically hate this trope because it's like taking out all the character grow from a character, destroying everything that makes them what and who they are. so no.- Overpowered protagonist? You will see mufufu...- Will characters stay relevant seeing how numerous they are? YES, MOTHERFUCKING YES, I hate when characters relevance decay over time for no good reasons ^^'- Plot Armor? First of all, a definition: "Sometimes referred to as "Script Immunity" or a "Character Shield", Plot Armor is when a main character's life and health are safeguarded by the fact that he's the one person who can't be removed from the story. Therefore, whenever Bob is in a situation where he could be killed (or at the least very seriously injured), he comes out unharmed with no logical, in-universe explanation." (courtesy of https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlotArmor I love you guys ^^) So now that this is said, do my characters have plot armour? No, because I always have an in-universe explanation, even if you don't know it yet ^^ Something is illogical or don't make sense? Read more, the answer is surely in the story ^u^- Balanced system? If you want to crush numbers and have a perfect equation balancing all the system, that's not the story for you. The system is more like a living being, and the rewards aren't forcibly tied to the level of the player. In fact, the system is purposely unbalanced ^^' Author's note: My goal here is to write a slow-paced story revolving around the bonds linking the characters, be them family, friends or lovers. Fight will be part of it, but I intend to build an actual interesting world before making truly large-scale battle happen, because the bigger a battle is, the larger its causes and effects are. I also aim at telling a story about how the characters actually help each other becoming stronger, more stable and happier. I particularly despise the lone MC type that becomes so powerful that every other character of the current setting become irrelevant beside being hostage targets, so this will not happen. I also like crafting, arrays, blacksmithing etc... so there may be crafting. Another thing I like is management game like sim-city or the like, so this while also appears, keeping in mind that I like MC's that make people around them stronger... For the tropers around here, a list of tropes that I like to use (note that I may not use all of them ^^) (this list will be updated as I dive deeper and deeper into our dear trope wiki.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BodyHorror- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SealedGoodInACan- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/YouAreNotAlone- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ZombieAdvocate (In particular since I see a lot of things that aren't human as worthy to live and to live with)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EvenEvilHasLovedOnes- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EvenEvilHasStandards- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HeelFaceTurn- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CorruptTheCutie (Note: being corrupted don't mean you're a villain, only different than before.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DefectingForLove (Of course.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/VillainousRescue- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InterspeciesAdoption (For the same reasons as zombie advocate, since I love family stuff)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrokenBird (to go with corrupt the cutie if it's a girl)Cover: "The Bard" by John Martin, 1817.

Saints and Suffering: A Naruto Fanfiction
Synopsis: Naruto and Sasuke were unable to defeat Kaguya the first time around, and suffer immensely for their failure. They travel back in time to right their wrongs, but struggle with the repercussions of their failure and the unintended consequences of their actions. Author's Note: This is fanfiction, I am a first time author, and I make no claims nor guarantees to quality. I have another story floating around in my head, but I am writing this first in order to practice my skills and gain feedback. Please feel free to give constructive criticism, I will try to read and respond. No guarantees to upload schedule or speed will be made. I work a full time job, and I am not particularly fast at writing, though maybe speed will increase as I become more practiced with my storytelling. This work will essentially be my playground moving forward; I'm going to write about scenarios that tickle my fancy, and the overall story may suffer from it. I will endeavor to keep continuity though. I have an outline that I am working on, and there is an overall arc to the story already. Furthermore, as of the beginning of this novel, my intention with this novel is to explore negative emotions and use my writing as a form of meditation/therapy. When I am sad, I will write sad things, and when I'm happy, the story will be happy. Lastly, there will be religious undertones every once in a while. Hopefully nothing too heavy handed though.
