Number 266

The mantis and the fox fought for a few minutes longer until Ning was sure it was enough time for the match to be full of bets.

Then, he ordered the mantis to defeat the wolf.

In the most uninteresting fashion, the mantis swiped its claws at the wolf and defeated it.

Even then, many people jumped up and down as they clapped at the end of his match.

"Evacuate the stage," the referee ordered, and Ning walked out of the stage. 

Along the way, one of the staff handed him a piece of paper that looked exclusive to the arena and had two numbers written on it.

106 and 33.

"What is this?" Ning asked the girl.

"Your earning," the girl said.

"I earned… 106?" Ning asked, unbelievingly.

"No, no, that's the match number. You earned 33 Pearls. You can go get it cashed in if you are going to leave," the girl said.

"Oh no, I still want to fight," Ning said, slightly surprised at how much he had earned.
