I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 801 - 537: Utterly Terrifying

The challenge for Peng Changye and Xia Liang surprisingly started with entering the water tank filled with piranhas, leaving everyone present stunned.

Immediately afterwards, the glamorous hostess randomly selected two audience members from below to tie up the hands and feet of the two challengers.

The ropes used for binding were hemp ropes, which would tighten even further when exposed to water.

In no time, the two audience members completed the binding of the challengers, who were then lifted into the air above the water tank by machine.

Then, there was a countdown shown on the big screen.

The audience on site began to count along with the countdown.

"Ten! Nine! Eight! Seven..."

When the countdown reached one, the ropes on the challengers were cut, and they fell directly into the water tank, which was simultaneously sealed with a lid.

The lid of the water tank was connected to a pipe, and it was filled with piranhas.

At this moment, those piranhas were swimming chaotically around the glass tank.

All the audience members were holding their breath, their eyes unblinking as they focused on the people inside the water tank, their emotions seemingly infected, making them afraid to breathe deeply.

Xia Liang remained calm even after entering the water tank, and finally, when the minute was up, the pipe above the tank opened, releasing dozens of piranhas, sparking countless splashes.

All the audience members were so frightened by this scene that they shuddered, and some even jumped up in shock.

Inside the water tank, the two challengers started making moves, attempting to untie the ropes on their wrists.

They were very clever; despite the urgency of time, both challengers coordinated smoothly, untying the ropes without causing much splash.

Because right next to them were numerous piranhas swimming around wildly; if they were to touch a piranha or if a piranha felt threatened, it would be game over.

If even one piranha started attacking and bit a person or another fish, as soon as there was blood in the tank, the piranhas would go completely berserk, attacking indiscriminately within the water tank.

One second, five seconds, ten seconds...

All the audience members silently counted within their hearts, and at fifteen seconds, both challengers had untied their hands and were now working on their feet.

However, just then, a pipe suddenly injected fresh blood into the tank from outside.

All the audience members were shocked by this unexpected scene. Everyone knew what the injection of fresh blood into the tank signified—the piranhas inside could smell the blood and would be driven to madness.

It meant that those inside the tank could very well become piranha feed.

Almost as soon as the blood was injected into the tank, most of the audience stood up in tension, desperately wanting to press their eyes against the tank to watch the situation inside.

In the instant fresh blood was injected, the water inside the tank was immediately stained red, whereby the piranhas went insane, swimming frantically in the tank and starting to bite each other.

The water in both tanks quickly turned muddy.

At that moment, Peng Changye bit onto a special potion inside his mouth at the moment the blood entered the tank.

This potion was specifically designed for piranhas; upon being bitten, it immediately integrated into his body, causing the piranhas to instinctively avoid his body.

To enhance the dramatic effect, Peng Changye began to struggle rapidly within the tank, making the water muddy instantly.

On the other side, Xia Liang directly used the top-level Magic Escape Art!

The ropes on his body were instantly untied; with just a thought, he could escape quickly from the tank, however, Xia Liang chose not to do this; he remained casually within the tank.

As the name suggests, Magic Escape Art enables the user to escape various dangers, under any adverse conditions.

Even when facing frenzied piranhas, the escape itself could instantly take effect, preventing the piranhas from coming into contact with the person using the escape art, allowing them to coexist safely; of course, even without it, the piranhas couldn't breach Xia Liang's defenses, thanks to the Golden Bell Shield Iron Cloth Shirt, so there's no need to fear.

However, the audience outside was unaware of this situation; everyone saw the water turning muddy within the two tanks, with people struggling, and shouted tensely.

Some even wanted to rush out from their seats but were pushed back by the security guards in the aisle.

"Hey, are you fucking blind? Hurry up and save them, or they'll be eaten by the piranhas, and not even bones will remain!"

A member of the audience screamed hoarsely at the security guard who pushed him back to his seat.

The guard remained calm and said, "Please trust in the performers' skills, and believe that our staff will immediately take rescue measures if the performers are in danger."

In the face of the apathetic guard, that audience member ultimately sat back in his seat unwillingly.

More and more audience members nervously clutched the armrests of their seats tightly, their eyes almost bulging out as they intensely watched the tank's movements.
