Some matters cannot be changed even if you work hard at it.
Dongfang Shuo understood this clearly in his heart.
Since things have already happened, he could only leave it to fate.
Moreover, he had been working hard to make changes, but he was still stuck in a little city like Martial Mountain City.
Just let things take its course!
He was currently feeling like a cracked pot being thrown out. Nothing mattered anymore, so could it get any worse? He had been suppressed to the furthest and lowest ranked location by Dongfang Xiong, so how could it get worse?
Upon thinking up to this point, Dongfang Shuo smiled and felt relaxed. âWhat other location can be worse than this?â
So Luo Tianâs entry has been confirmed.
Bai Xuan smiled.
The sect leader of the Spirit Gathering Sect smiled. Wang Li also smiled.
The person who smiled with pure joy was Wu Feng!
He felt elated as he stared at Luo Tian in coldness and said, âTrash, I will make you kneel down and call me daddy in a bit. If you make this daddy happy, I might even spare that dog life of yours, hahahaâŠâ
The crowd also broke into a discussion.
âThat kid is really participating? Heâs not afraid of death?â
âI thought that I was going to be at the bottom of this competition. With him present, I feel so much better! HahahaâŠâ
âSince he is someone Elder Bai hates, then we need to disgrace him as much as possible. If Elder Bai is satisfied with our performance, we might even make it into the Bai family. Hahaha⊠This kid is basically our lucky star!â
Those people watching the show were treating Luo Tian like a joke who doesnât know how death is spelled. They were waiting to watch him get humiliated on the stage and then end up kneeling in front of Wu Feng and calling him daddy. Just thinking about this scenario made them full of anticipation for the competition.
Some of the disciples in the competition started making their own plans.
They had always wanted to make a good impression in front of Bai Xuan, but had never found a good opportunity. It was good that Luo Tian had appeared. As long as they give Luo Tian a miserable beating, Elder Bai will definitely be happy about it. This was a very good opportunity for them to put on a good show!
The sect leaders of the eleven sects were all contemplating something.
If Luo Tian kneels in front of Wu Feng, he will definitely be stepped on by Wu Feng. If this does happen, Wu Fengâs influence in Martial Mountain City will soar. The Spirit Gathering Sectâs influence will also soar up by association.
They, the other eleven sects, would have become indirect helpers.
Moreover, Bai Xuan will place more emphasis on Wu Feng after the slap, and the Bai family will put in the resources to groom him. This will place all other sects in a disadvantageous position because it was they that tried to cause trouble in this situation.
Upon thinking of these matters, the sect leader of the Four Seas Sect gave the order, âIf anyone encounters Luo Tian, kill him directly!â
The sect leader of the Soaring Sky Sect also ordered, âWe canât let Wu Feng match up against Luo Tian, or else Wu Fengâs influence will increase like crazy. You guys need to kill that kid ahead of Wu Feng. That way, the humiliation of him being slapped will not be able to be washed away, and the Spirit Gathering Sectâs influence wonât increase by much.â
âDisciples understand!â
âDonât worry, sect leader. I may not be able to handle Wu Feng, but I am more than enough for a piece of trash with a shattered dantian.â
âAs long as I encounter him, I can finish him off with a single move.â
They didnât put Luo Tian in their eyes.
To them, Luo Tian was equivalent to a soft persimmon that could be pinched, beaten, and humiliated however they wanted to!
At this time, Luo Tianâs name was written on a slip of paper and placed inside a box.
The judges started discussing the competition matters.
Luo Tian started walking toward the Gambling Pavilion at this moment.
âKid, youâre not trying to run away, right?â
âYouâre finally getting scared? Iâm telling you straight up â itâs too late!â
âIf you donât compete today, you will still have to die for me on the stage!â
âKid, I put a lot of money for you to lose, so please donât disappoint me.â
Wherever Luo Tian went, there would be people mocking him.
Luo Tian pretended he didnât hear them.
He went up to the betting window and said, âCan I ask if itâs possible for me to place a bet?â
âHahahaâŠâ
Just when Luo Tian finished speaking, Ah Si, who wasnât too far away, started laughing out loud. âYou stupid trash, why would you place a bet? Do you think you can live past today?â
âThereâs no way he can live past today.â
âIf he can live past today, I will rip off my own head for you all.â
âKid, you can go ahead and lose in peace. It would be even better if you could stick around for a few more matches so that we can win even more. HahahaâŠâ
Many gamblers around Ah Si started mocking Luo Tian.
Luo Tian pretended not to hear them and waited for the Gambling Pavilionâs worker to respond.
âOf course, you can make a bet. How much do you want to place?â
Luo Tian didnât reply to the question and asked once more, âDo you accept goods as collateral? I will even take half the market price.â
The girl working for the Gambling Pavilion politely smiled before replying, âMy apologies, but we cannot do that.â
âOhâŠâ
Luo Tian was a little disappointed by the response. If the Gambling Pavilion could accept material goods as collateral, he would be able to bet a little bigger. He then took out all his xuan coins from his pocket, a total of 160, and handed them over. âIâll bet all of this on myself winning.â
The girl had a stunned expression and momentarily couldnât react. âYouâre betting on who?â
Luo Tian replied, âOn myself, Luo Tian!â
The girlâs eyes clearly revealed her shock as she suddenly became a bit excited. âAre you sure you want to bet on yourself?â
This was the first time someone had bet on Luo Tian winning.
Even though he was betting it on himself, she was still a bit excited by it.
Luo Tian nodded, âIâm sure!â
The young girl worker immediately issued Luo Tian a receipt like she was afraid he would regret it and change his mind.
Luo Tian didnât take it and said, âI want to bet on myself winning all matches.â
The girl worker froze for a second before saying, âI will immediately change it for you.â
After making sure the changes were correct, Luo Tian put away the ticket receipt.
All the people behind him were dumbstruck.
They stared at Luo Tian like idiots, thinking Luo Tian was the ultimate idiot.
Ah Si suddenly started laughing once more while pointing at Luo Tianâs nose. âHahaha⊠He actually bet on himself winning all the rounds! Shit must have entered his brain! Hahaha⊠Kid, can you even survive the first round? Yet you bet on yourself winning all the rounds? Are you not afraid that people will laugh so hard that they laugh their teeth off?â
âHahahaâŠâ
âHahaha⊠this is so funny! So many xuan coins were wasted just like that!â
Luo Tian was too lazy to look at the others. He only glanced at Ah Si, and his mouth curved into a cold smile.
The moment Luo Tian turned around, the steward of the Gambling Pavilion reported to Dongfang Shuo about what had just happened. âYoung master, should we let him pledge the goods he has in possession? Maybe the kid really has something good on him, which will allow us to reduce our losses.â
Dongfang Shuo looked at the ground floor of the building and noticed Luo Tian had a calm look on his face. He couldnât figure out what Luo Tian was thinking, so he waved his hand, âDonât do it. It looks like this kid isnât as simple as he looks.â
