Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty Chapter 333: Both Brothers Have Issues Upstairs

Edson didn’t return to his own shed; instead, he turned a corner and headed straight for Lu Xiao.

Seeing Edson approaching Lu Xiao, the scene quieted down once again.

"Mr. Lu Xiao, I heard you placed a two billion US dollar bet on yourself?" Edson didn’t beat around the bush and directly inquired.

Lu Xiao glanced at Edson and then smiled, shaking his head, "No, the rules don’t allow betting on oneself. It was my girlfriend, to show her support, who placed the bet on ."

A muscle twitched on Edson’s face.

Lu Xiao, do you believe what you’re saying?

Your girlfriend, to show her support, used twenty billion US dollars?

I, Edson, have lived for seventy to eighty years and have never seen such support with twenty billion US dollars.

"So that’s how it is, then, Mr. Lu Xiao. But you should know, even if you make it to the finals, your opponent will still be ."

It wasn’t that he looked down on Lu Xiao; the gap was just too large.

No matter how powerful a Third-tier Heavenly Man is, they can’t cause even the slightest damage to a Fourth Rank.

Even if, by so miracle, Lu Xiao’s talent allowed him to achieve Fourth Rank before the finals, it would still be of no use.

Heavenly Man and Mutant are not the sa; a Heavenly Man’s strength progresses step by step.

After becoming a Fourth Stage Heavenly Man, one must continue to train to grow stronger.

Take Liuli Hong, for example. When Liuli Hong first reached the Fourth Rank, his strength was about the sa as that of an average Fourth-stage Mutant.

Only as Liuli Hong’s training ti increased did he beco more formidable.

Lu Xiao is not a Mutant, so he’s dood to never be like Chen Fei, reaching the peak as soon as he enters the Fourth Rank.

"I’m aware of that."

"Mr. Edson, you’re quite nice to even remind ," Lu Xiao replied half-mockingly.

"But don’t worry, twenty billion US dollars to my girlfriend is just pocket change. Losing it wouldn’t be a big deal," Lu Xiao responded with a chuckle.

Edson felt terrible; this little bastard Lu Xiao was definitely spouting nonsense.

But he couldn’t figure out what exactly Lu Xiao was thinking.

"Mr. Edson, you don’t think I’m planning sothing, do you?" Lu Xiao suddenly asked back.

Edson rolled his eyes — isn’t that obvious?

"Or are you planning on pulling what Reno did during the finals?" Edson suddenly thought of a possibility.

After Reno fought with Farman, he imdiately declared his withdrawal. To stabilize the crowd, the Superpower Alliance chose to refund the bets.

Was Lu Xiao thinking along these lines?

But... it would be pointless.

Lu Xiao spread his hands and didn’t reply further, leaving Edson to his speculations.

I have no obligation to clarify things for you.

"Next up, please have the Third Stage contestants ready."

"The first match, Lu Xiao versus Joel Vince, please co up to the arena." At that mont, the announcent echoed through the venue once again.

Lu Xiao waved at Edson and headed toward the ring.

On the platform, Joel Vince’s expression turned fierce the mont he saw Lu Xiao.

"Lu Xiao, rember, the one who will defeat you is , Joel Vince!"

Lu Xiao: (#°Д°)

I rember, your brother Sol Vince seems to have said the sa thing.

It really runs in the family, both brothers have got a screw loose in the head.

"Joel, take down Lu Xiao!"

"Lu Xiao, that bastard, bet two billion on himself; he must have so powerful trick up his sleeve. Joel is definitely going to lose."

"That’s true, but I don’t understand what this trick could be."

"So trick, Lu Xiao couldn’t beat Mr. Edson even if he had a stepmother."

Below the stage, various shouts and discussions intertwined.

Lu Xiao squinted his eyes and motioned with a crook of his finger towards Joel. Since it’s co to this, let’s make it quick.

Joel didn’t waste any more words. The Fire Elent erupted from his body, and an orange-red glow gathered around him.

The next mont, Joel’s body turned into a giant fireball as he lunged at Lu Xiao.

Clearly, Joel was very confident in his close-quarters combat abilities.

Most Fire Elent Mutants attack from a distance, but Joel chose to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

But to be fair, fighting up close while wrapped in a large amount of Fire Elent does have its advantages — especially against those fragile Mutants. Once they get up close, it basically ans defeat.

"I’m a Heavenly Man, you fool," Lu Xiao shook his head. Playing close-quarters combat with a Heavenly Man, aren’t you just asking for a beating?

Did you really think Heavenly Man’s invincibility within the sa rank was just a bluff?

If you attacked from a distance, you might manage to struggle with a Third Stage Heavenly Man, but up close, you’re just handing your head over.
