Chapter 109 Pre-War Bet
Three days flew by.
On this day, people from all over the city rushed to the Colosseum. Everyone knew that there would be a wonderful battle between fortune tellers today.
"Have you heard? Both parties participating in this exhibition are quite influential!"
"Of course I have heard of it. One side is Jie Xie, the number one of the younger generation in Mi City, and Leng Qianxue, the son of the richest man. The other side is the mysterious master of the City Lord's Mansion!"
"I just don't know what kind of experts our city lord, who hasn't appeared for many years, will send out!"
"I know. According to reliable information, the one who is fighting this time is the city lord's illegitimate son!"
"What? Is your news true?"
"True, truer than gold!"
Just as people were talking, a melodious singing voice was heard in the distance.
"Open~the~market!"
The sound immediately attracted everyone and everyone rushed there.
At this time, high in the sky, Jin Moran was taking Lu Ming and A Le to the Colosseum, and the situation below immediately caught A Le's attention.
"Commander Jin, what happened down there?"
"Nothing, just a bet on your match today."
When he heard about the betting, Ah Le's eyes lit up.
"What are the odds?"
"You two are not as famous as Leng Qianxue and Xie Gao, so your odds are three to one."
"Three to one? Not bad!"
Ah Le's eyes lit up. "I can't miss this kind of sure money. Commander Jin, come down quickly. I want to place a bet."
"If you really want to place a bet, you can do so at the Colosseum. This place is set up for the common people who cannot enter the Colosseum."
"All right!"
Soon, Lu Ming and A Le arrived at the Colosseum. At this time, the entire Colosseum was full of people waiting to watch the challenge.
The arrival of the two caused a heated discussion.
"Look, they are the two contestants sent by the city lord!"
"It's bad. Judging from their appearance, they are too young. They may not even be 10 years old!"
"It's over now. I bet 3 gold coins on them!"
Many people felt disappointed and regretted when they saw the young faces of Lu Ming and A Le.
"No way! You don't even know their strength, but you still bet so much?"
The person who bet on Lu Ming and his team to win said with a wry smile: "They are participating in the battle on behalf of the city lord!"
“Who would have thought they were so young!”
“I originally thought I could give it a try and turn my small courtyard into a mansion, but now it seems that I’m more likely to be homeless!”
The entire grandstand area was noisy.
"No, I want to place a new bet and try to recover my losses!"
Many people chose to place their bets again and ran towards the betting area.
After Ale landed, he looked around for a place to place his bets.
“Where can I place my bets?”
Jin Moran had no choice but to take him to place bets. Just as A Le was about to leave, he saw Lu Ming sitting in the waiting area without moving, and immediately called him.
"Go!"
"You guys go ahead, I'm not interested in placing bets!"
Ah Le immediately pulled him up: "You must go!"
"why?"
"If you don't go, how can I have the money to bet!"
Lu Ming was speechless for a while: "Do you think of me as an ATM?"
"How can I do that? This is an opportunity to make money. I can't leave you and make a fortune on my own!"
Lu Ming and A Le were dragged to the betting area by A Le, and they took out all their savings, a total of 120 million gold coins!
Just as the two were about to place their bets, a staff member at the Colosseum suddenly spoke.
"The odds for both sides of the battle have changed. The odds for the Temple of Destiny are 1:1.5, and the odds for the City Lord are 1:5."
Originally the odds for Jie Xie and his team were 1:2, while those for Lu Ming and his team were 1:3.
But now the odds suddenly changed because when the people in the Colosseum saw that Lu Ming and the other man were so young, they lost confidence in them and increased their bets on Jie Xie and the others.
A Le and Lu Ming are both smart people and they figured everything out in an instant.
Ah Le's face looked unhappy: "Lu Ming, they are looking down on us!"
Lu Ming looked calm and didn't care what others thought of him.
"You don't have to be angry. It's better to change the odds. This way we can win more!"
Ah Le's mouth curled up unconsciously: "Yes, this way we can win more money."
He squeezed to the betting area and shouted, "I bet 120 million, the city lord's side wins!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene suddenly became quiet and everyone looked towards Ah Le.
120 million gold coins is definitely a huge investment, not to mention that it is a bet on the unfavored city lord.
Soon someone recognized Ah Le's identity: "He is the contestant who will participate in the challenge, Ah Le!"
"He actually bet on himself to win. Is he young and ignorant of the immensity of the world, or is he confident in his own ability?"
Everyone was talking quietly.
The staff member in charge of collecting bets looked at A Le with some doubt at this time and did not accept the bet immediately.
Ah Le's face darkened: "Why, I can't place a bet?"
The staff member quickly explained: "Of course, but are you sure you want to bet 120 million?"
"Sure!"
Seeing this, the staff immediately accepted the bet of 120 million.
But at this moment a mocking voice sounded.
"You guys really dare to bet, aren't you afraid of losing everything?"
Lu Ming and A Le's faces turned cold at the same time and they looked in the direction of the voice.
"It turns out to be him!"
The one who spoke was Leng Qianxue, who was seen walking towards them slowly.
Ah Le looked unhappy: "What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Is this hard to understand? I mean you are doomed to lose!"
Looking at the other party's arrogant look, Ah Le said in a deep voice: "Humph, you are the losers!"
Leng Qianxue was confident: "You will definitely lose, I said!"
He ordered his followers: "Put a bet of three million on me to win!"
"Yes, Master!"
When Ah Le saw the other person like this, his eyes rolled.
"Leng Qianxue, since you are so confident that you will win, do you have the guts to bet with me?"
"What's there to be afraid of? But do you two have any money?"
Looking at Leng Qianxue's contemptuous look, A Le clenched his fists. He really didn't have much money now.
Ah Le took a deep breath and said, "Let's not gamble with money, but with our lives. Do you dare?"
Leng Qianxue frowned slightly: "I am the son of the richest man, how could I gamble my life with someone like you."
"Humph, if you're afraid, then you're afraid. Why do you have to be like this?"
"I don't want to bother with you. See you on the battlefield later."
After Leng Qianxue finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait!"
Just as Leng Qianxue was about to leave, Lu Ming spoke up to stop her.
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll bet with you!"
"You?" Leng Qianxue looked at him with disdain.
"Do you have money?"
"I don't have money, but I have soul crystals!"
As Lu Ming spoke, he took out a bag from his arms.
"There are 50 soul crystals in here, worth 300 million gold coins. Do you dare to bet?"
When Ah Le saw Lu Ming taking out the soul crystal, he quickly said, "Lu Ming, you can't do that."
“It’s not worth it!”
Lu Ming smiled at him: "We are sure to win anyway, right?"
Ah Le thought so too, and then said arrogantly to Leng Qianxue: "Do you dare to accept the bet?"
