Chapter 464 – All-In

Lan Xuanyu said, “Then between you and Huihui…”

Tang Yuge said, “I can promise you that I won’t take the initiative to act against him anymore. Ever since that time when we were in that dangerous situation and he called me ‘sister’, I can’t hate him anymore. Blood is thicker than water. No matter what, no matter how much I hate that man, I can’t put all of this on Huihui. After all, I’m his half-sister.”

Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath. “Alright, then as long as you can do it, you’re welcome to join the first years.” As he spoke, Lan Xuanyu extended his right hand towards Tang Yuge.

Tang Yuge reached out and shook her hand. Her pale face had a tinge of redness, and she looked much better. Then, she said seriously, “Thank you.”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head. “What are you thanking me for? We’ll be on the same side from now on. Oh right, since that’s the case, can you wait a few days before announcing that you’re joining the first years ? At least wait until we’re facing the fifth years.”

Tang Yuge was stunned for a moment, but when she saw Lan Xuanyu’s eyes darting around, she knew that he was up to no good again.

“Alright.”

After Tang Yuge left, Lan Xuanyu paused for a moment and a strange smile appeared on his face. He didn’t head back to the Blacksmith’s Association but went straight back to his dorm.

Eternal Sky City.

Wang Tianyu stood in front of a wooden house and looked at the distant sea of clouds.

“Lan Xuanyu’s team have won, and it was Dong Qianqiu and Lan Mengqin who went up. Lan Xuanyu didn’t participate. His tactics were very accurate. By relying on strong control and the ice and snow’s restrictions on speed and electricity, they won without any suspense.” The voice came from a man not far behind Wang Tianyu.

If Lan Xuanyu was here, he would definitely recognize that this was the president of the Blacksmith Association that had lent him 50 purple emblems.

“He placed the 50 purple emblems he borrowed on the first years and earned 25 purple emblems. This junior is really bold and meticulous! Impressive, much better than us at his age.”

Wang Tianyu said, “Pay attention to how he is going to invest.”

“Yes, Teacher,” the president replied respectfully.

Wang Tianyu said indifferently, “I want to see if this boy will continue to be greedy or if he can control his emotions. This is very important. A person’s temperament is more important than his talent, especially since this boy is the target of everyone’s attention. I hope he doesn’t disappoint me.”

“Yes.” The president knew in his heart that this test would determine whether Lan Xuanyu would be able to receive more resources and grooming from the academy in the future.

From the looks of it, everything that he did was well appreciated by the Inner Court, especially when he declared everyone would go together or nobody does.

Although from his point of view, the first years were very naive, were they treating the seniors as mud? However, it had been a long time since Shrek had such courage and cohesiveness.

Youngsters nowadays were really daring!

“Change of tactics, someone else will go up ?” Lan Mengqin looked at Lan Xuanyu in surprise. “Are you sure?”

Lan Xuanyu said, “I’m sure. Don’t ask why, you guys will understand later. I can guarantee that our opponents this time will be replaced. We will change our participants this time. Hui Hui, Bing Tianliang, and Liu Feng will be fighting.”

That’s right, Lan Xuanyu had changed his tactics and arrangements at the last minute. According to their original arrangements, he, Yuanen Huihui, and Dong Qianqiu would be fighting. Their opponent would be the third years’ number one, Tang Yuge. But at this moment, he had changed their formation.

“Our battle strategy needs to be rearranged too,” Lan Xuanyu said with a smile. He wasn’t stupid. Although Tang Yuge didn’t say anything, he could tell from her expression and request that she had lost her confidence and hope in the third years. She must have been greatly shaken in some aspects. And there was only one thing that could shaken her so much, and it was naturally their preliminaries, for deciding who would be going up.

Hence, when he separated from Tang Yuge, he immediately determined that Tang Yuge would not be the one representing the third years to fight. Their opponents had changed. And the only one in the entire third years that Lan Xuanyu was afraid of was Tang Yuge. As for the others, they all had their own weaknesses.

The odds were already made public the day before the match.

The first years’ winning odds were 1:0,7. The third years’ winning odds were 1:0,7. Both teams had the same odds.

That’s right, the first years had defeated the third years before, but that was under the premise that the other party couldn’t wear their Battle Armor. It wasn’t a secret that Tang Yuge was already a six-ring Soul Emperor, and many people knew about it. Hence, the third years had a high chance of defeating the first years.

Even so, this was already the highest payout for the first years in the last 100 years. This was a challenge that skipped two years, a challenge of three against one.

It was only when night fell and the night before the competition that Lan Xuanyu quietly arrived at the center.

“I want to bet.” He was wearing a mask, a hat, and a green Shrek Academy uniform.

“Which side? How much?” The person in charge of the Gambling Center was also from Shrek Academy. Seeing Lan Xuanyu’s mysterious appearance, he couldn’t help but laugh.

However, he quickly stopped laughing. Following a series of “Hua La” sounds, a large pile of purple emblems appeared before him.

“75 purple emblems, on the first years,” Lan Xuanyu said without hesitation.

The corners of the teacher’s mouth twitched. “Why are you wearing a mask? Do you think I wouldn’t recognize you?”

Lan Xuanyu smiled apologetically. “Teacher, I’m not trying to hide it from you, I just don’t want others to see it!”

“Think about it carefully! This is 75 purple emblems, not a small amount. If you lose, you will lose everything. Are you sure you want to bet like this? Are you that confident?” The teacher kindly reminded.

“Please help me quickly. I am confident,” Lan Xuanyu urged.

The teacher looked at him with a strange look in his eyes and then began to help him with the procedures. Seventy-five purple emblems, with the odds being 1:0,7, that would be more than 50 purple emblems! If he really won, the number one tycoon in the Outer Court would probably be this kid, right?

After settling the procedures, the odds for the first years dropped from 1:0,7 to 1:0,5, and the odds for the third years increased to 1:1.

At this moment, there were only about 10 hours left until the start of the second day.

Lan Xuanyu sneaked back to his dorm like a thief and he was actually a little nervous. This time’s bet was definitely too big. He would never have done this at first, but after determining that Tang Yuge would not make a move, he had made this choice and arranged the most suitable lineup for this battle. Even if Tang Yuge went up, they still had a chance.

Bing Tianliang and Liu Feng’s abilities did not belong to the five elements and would not be restrained by Tang Yuge, while Yuanen Huihui’s strength was the closest to Tang Yuge’s. Three against one, their chances were not small. Hui Hui was already close to the peak of the five-ring realm and his strength had improved greatly. Bing Tianliang was also at rank 48 and his soul power cultivation was also one of the best in class.

Of course, this was just in case. According to his judgment, if it wasn’t Tang Yuge, then he was almost 100% sure that he would win this match.

“Betted everything?” Wang Tianyu’s brows furrowed. “What a greedy boy.”
