This was Feng Feiyun's first time in a place like this. He looked up and saw many cultivators in immortal robes.
Many jade tokens were hung on the walls of the gambling palace, and all kinds of gambling odds were recorded on them.
"Li Xiaonan will enter the second round, fifty to one."
"Xiyue Lanshan will enter the second round, ten to one."
"Mu Xingzi will become the champion, ten to ten."
"Beiming Potian will become the champion, three to one."
…
…
The betting odds were dazzling to the eyes.
The employees of the gambling hall were also constantly changing the jade tiles on the walls. Because they had received different information, the odds would naturally change as well.
"The young lord of the Dark Zone, Mu Xingzi, killed forty-three people on the Yellow Fighting Platform. Two of them were kings of the young generation, but they were all killed by him. Their blood dyed the fighting platform, shocking everyone."
"Looks like the odds for Mu Xingzi to become the champion will change."
As expected, after the news came, the clerk of the gambling palace took off the jade plate of Mu Xingzi and put up a new one.
The odds were ten to one, but now it was eight to one.
Feiyun sat on a chair in the gambling hall and listened to the discussions of the cultivators around him. He learned a lot about the groom competition.
Ningshuai squeezed into the crowd at this time and shouted: "I'll bet one thousand spirit stones on Prince Hongye becoming the champion and another thousand on Beiming Potian becoming the champion."
That was two thousand spirit stones, a monstrous sum that attracted many people's attention.
The gambling hall quieted down for a while.
Just who was this Big-headed Buddha?
Was he a prodigy from the Buddhist sect?
A girl with bright eyes and white teeth said sweetly, "Mister … Mister, the payout for Prince Hong Ye is 1: 4, and the payout for Beiming Potian is 1: 3. Even if the payout changes in the future, the payout won't change. Are you sure you want to bet on them?"
"I'm sure!
Gambling is all about speed and accuracy. If I wait any longer, their odds will be even lower and I'll be losing big time. "Ningshuai vowed.
Ningshuai took the two tickets and excitedly walked over. "You don't want to play?"
Feng Feiyun smiled: "You're so sure that they can win?"
"Of course, I've calculated it thoroughly before taking action.
Why don't I bet on Li Xiaonan?
It's because I know that he wants to marry the fourth daughter of the Yin Gou and isn't interested in Princess Luofu.
Why don't I bet on Dongfang Jingshui?
That's because I know that Dongfang Jingshui is only participating in the Fuma Battle because he wants to fight. This madman has no intention of becoming first place. "
"Prince Hongye and Beiming Potian are different. One of them is interested in Princess Luofu while the other is interested in the Divine King position. They will definitely fight for it, so their chances of winning are naturally higher." Ningshuai was quite pleased with himself and added.
Feng Feiyun gently rubbed his nose: "Not a bad analysis.
But you're wrong about one thing. "
"What is it?" Ningshuai asked.
"Experts like Li Xiaonan and Dongfang Jingshui won't allow themselves to lose even if they aren't interested in Princess Luofu or the Divine King position.
It's fine if they don't participate, but once they do, they will definitely win. This is the heart of an expert. "Feng Feiyun said.
Ningshuai pondered for a bit before saying: "Makes sense, makes sense."
He then ran back into the crowd and bet one thousand spirit stones each on Li Xiaonan and Dongfang Jingshui.
After he returned, Feng Feiyun shook his head: "Not worth it, not worth it."
"Not worth it again?
Didn't you say that Li Xiaonan and Dongfang Jingshui would go all out? Why are you saying it's not worth it after I bet? "Ningshuai was a bit angry, feeling that he was tricked by Feng Feiyun.
Feng Feiyun slowly said: "Look, the odds for Prince Hongye are 1: 4, Beiming Potian is 1: 3, Xiaonan is 1: 3, and Dongfang Jingshui is still 1: 3."
"You've bet a thousand spirit stones on each of them. That's a total of four thousand spirit stones. However, only one of the four of them can become the champion of this battle.
Even if Prince Hongye wins, you'll only be able to get back four thousand spirit stones, which is considered breaking even.
But if the other three win, you won't even get back your capital. "
Ningshuai stood there stiffly and cursed: "What the fuck do I have against you?!
You tricked me like this. No wonder that pretty girl smiled at me shyly when I went to place my bet. I f * cking thought she was interested in me! "
Ningshuai directly pounced towards Feng Feiyun, wanting to strangle him to death.
Feng Feiyun's figure flashed and appeared right behind him. He crossed his arms and smiled: "Who told you to bet on someone else and not me? You don't trust me at all!"
Ningshuai sobbed: "I'll lose even more if I bet on you."
Prince Hongye and Li Xiaonan were half-step Giants, the top of the younger generation. Ningshuai naturally bet on them instead of Feng Feiyun.
"Sigh!
Let me teach you what it means to win without losing. "
Feng Feiyun walked towards the counter and took out a spirit stone: "I want to bet on Feng Ergou, one spirit stone.
Beauty, what are the odds? "
Ningshuai sneered, thinking that Feng Feiyun was too stingy. How much could he earn with one spirit stone?
The odds that could be hung on the walls of the gambling palace were mostly for young talents with illustrious reputations. At the very least, they were at the level of a king among the younger generation.
Feng Ergou was too unfamiliar, so he wasn't qualified to be on the wall. No one wanted to bet on him, not even the odds were registered.
But since someone wanted to bet on him, the gambling hall would naturally register the odds for him.
There were people in the gambling hall who checked and found that the name Feng Ergou was indeed participating in the competition. After some evaluation, they came to a conclusion, "1: 30."
The appraisers here were experienced. Even though they knew that Feng Ergou had no chance of passing, they didn't dare to make the odds too high. If something unexpected happened, the gambling hall would go bankrupt.
The girl with bright eyes and white teeth held the jade token in her hand and said: "Mister, the odds for Feng Er Gou to pass the first round is 1: 30. In other words, if you bet one spiritual stone and win, you will get 30 spiritual stones."
"This is only the first round, yet the odds are so high."
Feng Feiyun smiled and took out 10,000 stones: "I want to add another 10,000 stones."
"Boom!"
Many of the cultivators in the gambling hall turned their attention to him.
Ten thousand Spiritual Stones was a rather large sum. Only major forces like the four great clans could easily fork out such a sum.
The girl was frightened. It wasn't that she hadn't seen such a large amount of spirit stones before, but she couldn't believe that someone would bet so many spirit stones on Feng Ergou. "One … ten thousand spirit stones … this …"
Feng Feiyun's bamboo hat added to his mystery.
Feng Ergou's odds were too high, 1 to 30. If this mysterious person won by accident, then the gambling hall would have to pay 300,000 stones.
What did 300,000 Spirit Stones mean?
Even the ancient Beiming Clan wouldn't be able to take out so many stones in such a short time.
Ningshuai finally understood Feiyun's scheme. In the beginning, he bet one spirit stone on Feng Ergou. The people from the gambling hall wouldn't take it seriously since it was a small amount. Thus, they set the payout to one to thirty.
However, if Feiyun were to bet 10,000 stones on Feng Ergou right from the start, then the people in the gambling hall would pay more attention to him. The payout wouldn't be too high either. Even if he won, he wouldn't earn much.
Treacherous!
Cunning!
Even if the gambling hall wanted to change the odds, they would have to wait until Feng Feiyun made his bet. If they couldn't even take this risk and went back on their word, then they wouldn't be able to become the number one gambling hall at the capital.
The higher-ups of the gambling palace were all alarmed, and all of them felt a headache coming on. They all guessed that this Feng Ergou must be an expert, otherwise, no one would bet ten thousand spirit stones on him. It was too late to back out now, so they could only try to stop Feng Ergou from passing the first round.
After Feiyun bet 10,000 stones, Feng Ergou's odds immediately changed from 1: 30 to 2: 1.
Even so, many people still went to place their bets.
Feng Feiyun had already left the gambling hall. After a while, Ningshuai happily followed him out.
Feng Feiyun curiously asked: "Don't tell me you also bet on me?"
"Haha!
Of course, I bet 5,000 stones. But I'm smarter than you, so I bet that you'll be number one. That's a good friend, right?
Trust in you, right? "Ningshuai's face was full of smiles.
The odds for Feng Ergou to pass the first round were now 2 to 1. There was no more profit, so Ningshuai naturally wanted to bet on something.
Feng Feiyun smiled: "What are the odds for Feng Ergou to be number one?"
"Not much, not much at all, 1 to 20."
Ningshuai stretched out two fingers and smiled: "If I win, I'll earn 100,000 spirit stones. Oh god!
Oh my god! "
Feng Feiyun suddenly stopped and coughed: "Umm … here's the situation.
Let's not talk about whether or not I'll be number one … "
"It's fine, it's worth the risk with such high odds." Ningshuai smiled.
"What I want to say is … even if I get number one, my identity will be exposed by then. My real name is Feng Feiyun, but you're betting on … Feng Ergou …"
But you bet on … Feng Ergou … "Feiyun said apologetically.
Feng Feiyun also wanted to bet on himself being number one since the odds would be higher. However, for safety's sake, he decided to bet on himself passing the first round. He needed to win spirit stones before his identity was exposed.
"Why … didn't you tell me earlier?"
Ningshuai was stunned on the spot. His body was about to erupt in flames: "You fucking did it on purpose!"
Ningshuai almost took out the Blood-being Exalted Pot. This time, he was tricked by Feng Feiyun too much.
