A few others talked around them. "That's good. Nice bet! It gets things done and makes one of them happy."
The sharp voice sounded again, "Okay. I am betting with Dong Wushang. My sword for his blade. The souls of my sword and his blade will be merged as one. It will be hidden in the firmament. When the right person finds it, it is the winner's credit."
The heavy voice responded, "Deal!"
As the heavy voice sounded, Ye Xiao felt shocked, as if the man who had that voice was invincible and overwhelming.
The suppression from the power of the blade suddenly struck on him.
He was frightened.
Before this, Fierce Blade Li Wuliang was the most capable blade user in Ye Xiao's heart. However, Li Wuliang was at most second from now on. Maybe Li Wuliang was far from the first from now on. The man who had that heavy voice had a marvelous capability not only in sword art but also in cultivation—it was way beyond what Ye Xiao could imagine. To compare him to Li Wuliang was definitely humiliating the former.
Not to mention Ye Xiao, if Li Wuliang knew Ye Xiao compared him to such a powerful figure, he would fight Ye Xiao for it. It was a humiliation to the art of swordplay to compare him to such a great figure! He would have to kill whoever made such an absurd comparison!
The Bird Man who sounded a bit wretched talked again, "I bet with a one day fight against Chief. I bet he can pass it. Ji Mo, will you accept it?"
"F*ck y…" The voice who Ye Xiao hated to hear was sounding. It seemed the man was shocked. "You asshole! I will rip your hair off tomorrow!"
"Just tell me if you dare!" Bird Man was provoking him. Apparently, he was quite confident. He just wanted Ji Mo to accept it.
"Only cowards will say no!" The man responded, "Since you want to be beaten so bad, go to the Chief and prepare for the punch!"
"I also bet with Ji Mo the young man can pass. If I win, Ji Mo go fight against Chief Xie one whole day! No retreat! Can't end the fight earlier! It has to be one full day!"
"What's the matter with you two? Why are you all f*cking with me?" The man sounded upset, "Don't we just want to have some fun from this? Why are you doing this to me? Do you really have to?"
The others laughed together. Somebody said, "Cut the bullsh*t. Just tell us if you dare! Don't you always say that you are the bravest among us?"
"Deal!" Ji Mo gritted his teeth and said, "I am sure this young man will fail! Why wouldn't I dare to bet? Since when did I see things wrong?"
At this moment, Master Tianji's voice sounded again, "All deals are set. Nobody changes. Let the Heaven's Will be the witness. Ring the bell and it's done! Whoever violates it will be considered losing all bets!"
The others exclaimed. They were shocked. "Holy hell! Wizard, aren't you vicious! We are just playing! You actually used Heaven's Will on this?"
Master Tianji seemed smiling. "What a fun game. We must make it a big one. Otherwise, somebody will certainly repudiate the bet. That would be boring."
"That's true." The others laughed. "We never repudiated anything after all. Hmm. Ji Mo must be quite annoyed now…"
"Hahahaha…" People laughed loudly.
Meanwhile, one man was also laughing so loudly with them. He was so happy that his face looked like a blossoming flower!
It was certainly Ye Xiao who was laughing so happily!
Apparently, that elegant and mystic Master Tianji must also be a wicked person since he suddenly made that game so serious. Although Ye Xiao didn't know what the Heaven's Will Witness meant, he knew it must be something advanced. It must be something that made sure Ji Mo couldn't refuse to do what he should after losing the bet!
As long as he lost, he would have to do as he promised. That Chief was unknown to Ye Xiao, but he must be quite powerful. It must be a torture to fight against him!
It was such a delightful thing for Ye Xiao to know that Ji Mo would suffer!
What was more important was that the bet was all about him. As long as he passed the trial, Ji Mo would lose it!
Although he was yet to know what the trial was, he knew he had to win! He had to pass it!
He was thrilled and fully motivated now. The East-rising Purple Qi was running beyond the limited rate. Maybe he concentrated more than ever at the moment, but the voice from inside the stele became clearer!
The sharp voice sounded, "Kiddo, come up earlier and beat the guy up hard!"
The heavy voice sounded too, "I would love to lose the bet if it gives you the chance to come up earlier and beat him up to death."
The man who bet with gold scale spoke, "He may not be able to succeed though… Back in the old days, Chief was such an incredibly talented person… That thing we set up is simple, but it is impossible for ordinary people to pass."
"You stupid!" Another man said, "Then you bet he can't do it?"
"I do," the prior answered.
The latter said, "Fine!"
"Wait! This isn't right. You guys are doing this against me! How can you do this? No!" The man named Ji Mo sounded full of grudge, "This is unfair! You should give me all your stakes if I win!"
"Good dream! Guys, let's beat him up in advance now! Have fun!"
- Bang, bang, bang… -
"Mercy… Please…"
Another wave of laughter echoed out. The sound inside the stele stopped after that.
Ye Xiao was shocked.
A long time after the voice inside the stele disappeared, he finally returned to himself. Apparently, it was so unbelievably mysterious to him.
Some men who must be bored of their lives… eight or nine men… making bets together, gambling, having fun from it… They were making bets about whether he could achieve certain success.
[Since when did I become so awesome… I didn't know that…] Ye Xiao touched his own face. He was stunned. [Those guys… any one of them is powerful enough to dominate a huge piece of land in the world, yet they stay together to bet because of me? Even if they are truly bored… that is still too flattering… I am so stressful!]
The men who bet he couldn't pass were just having fun and making jokes, except that man Ji Mo… He truly didn't believe Ye Xiao could do it. That bothered Ye Xiao.
"Even if only to let you lose the bet! To let you be beaten up hard!"
"I have to refine the stele."
