Hearing the discussions around them, Rudy's eyebrows remained furrowed, barely relaxing. His lips twitched as he turned to look at Fane. Fane remained the same as usual, without a change in his expression.
There were some things that Rudy had not wanted to say, but he could no longer stand it. He looked at Fane and did his best to lower his voice, "Do you think a betting area is good or bad for the warriors?"
Fane raised an eyebrow, thinking about it for a while before he replied in a low voice, "It's more bad than good, but there are obviously many benefits for Hundred Beast City. With a fifty thousand limit, the warriors might participate in the bets, but it won't cost them their whole fortunes.
"Then, the warriors can continue placing bets. Since it's gambling, there are definitely winners and losers, but I'm sure that there are definitely more losers than winners. A lot of spirit crystals must have been taken by Hundred Beast City. They probably manage to accumulate tens of millions every day..."
Saying that, Fane had a look of envy in his eyes. If he was able to earn so many spirit crystals every day, then he would not need to be worried about the ninthgrade crystals at all. After all, no matter how expensive the ninth-grade crystals were, each of them should only be around 100 million at most.
Rudy frowned, "Why does Hundred Beast City need so many spirit crystals? Could Hundred Beast City have someone who needs spirit crystals to train with?"
Fane did not answer him immediately after that question, and instead thought for a while before saying, "Who knows? It's a possibility, but it's not definitive. I have my own guesses. Every large array needs a lot of spirit crystals releasing energy to be used. I'm guessing that the spirit crystals are meant to maintain the Whirling World. Of course, that's just a guess. I don't know if it's true or not."
Rudy suddenly widened his eyes, saying emotionally," It's very possible. I feel like what you said should be the truth. How could I not think of that before? There are countless cities in the Whirling World.
"There are multiple arrays in every city. Since they are arrays, they naturally need power. The power can be absorbed naturally, but if the consumption is too big, the ambient energy might not be enough to sustain the arrays.
"They would need large amounts of spirit crystals!
Spirit crystals are basically storages of pure energy after all. That guess should be right."
Rudy could not stop himself from looking up into the sky. There was a gentle breeze in the air, and the sky was full of clouds. They could not even see the hot sun.
Ever since they entered the Whirling World, he had never seen the sun or the moon at all, but night and day were clearly separated. There had been a lot of things happening, so Rudy never had the time to wonder how the Whirling World truly operated.
Fane raised an eyebrow, patting Rudy on the shoulder as he nodded forward, "Let's put those thoughts aside for now. Lesley seems to have already made his choice n
At that moment, Lesley seemed quite anxious. It looked like he was incredibly conflicted, but no matter how conflicted he was at that moment, it could not help Lesley pick out the weakest beast at all.
He had to bet on his luck. Even though the beasts all looked different, there was no way to use that to determine how strong they were. Some beasts were half the height of a normal man but were able to kill high-grade disciples in just one move.
