It would be suicidal of him if he signed up to fight but he could not help himself. After all, his abilities were limited.
If he had not won the previous bet, his total fortune would not even have amounted to five million.
How could 150 million not sway him?
Marth was the same as well, but he was always more composed and rarely showed his emotions.

Jack turned to glance at the two of them. Even if he did not ask, it was easy to tell what they were thinking.
Seeing the look Jack gave them, the two of them felt bashful. It was as if their greed was written all over them and
exposed to others. Their awkwardness made them feel lost, not knowing what to do.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJack laughed and said, "There's no need to be like this. That kind of reward would persuade anyone, after all.
However, you need to know your place. If you're impulsive, you'll end up paying a price you can't afford..."
The two of them nodded vigorously, and Lourain sheepishly replied, "I know it's a bit of a joke to have these
thoughts too, that I don't really know my place. I just couldn't help myself. It's a hundred fifty million, and it's much
more than what I have in total. If I had those spirit crystals, I'd be able to greatly improve myself!"
Despite being abashed, Lourain was sure of what he said.
He felt like he was stuck between regular warriors and above-average warriors at that moment, not improving the
way he expected. He was stronger than the average warrior but could not be considered elite just yet, much to his
disappointment.
These thoughts intensified after they came to Violet City. It was like a fire that was about to burn his whole body up,
and it felt horrible.
Violet City was not somewhere warriors like him could amount to much.
Ever since he stepped into Violet City, whether it was the Capture Hall, Killing Hall, or even just hearing about the
other challenges, Lourain felt easily swayed by temptation. However, he did not dare to try. He did not even dare to
sign up.
He was just too weak. Only warriors that were firmly in the upper echelons would have the guts to sign up. The
Capture Hall would normally not threaten anyone's life as long as they were fast enough to dodge any attacks.
With a bit of luck, they would survive. Even if one could not get enough Life Points to get any treasures, he would at
least have signed up.
Lourain and Marth had just been spectators the whole time, silently watching others attempt the challenges.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSure, they were unharmed as they sat in the stands, but it felt suffocating. Because of that, Lourain started to falter
when faced with such a huge reward.
Even though Marth had remained quiet standing by the side, Lourain could feel that Marth felt just the same way.
The two of them were caught in an awkward spot. They were not strong enough, but they were not willing to watch
on like regular warriors. Still, they did not dare to challenge anything like the stronger warriors did. This stifling
feeling grated on their nerves.
Jack raised an eyebrow and said, "I know what you're both thinking, but your lives are more important, I'd say. You
need to understand proper order. If you have that reward, you can end up leveling up yourself."
