Chapter 1092: Free competition
Mo Qi and Brother Yuan glanced at Ye Zhongming and didn’t care about him. It was as if Ye Zhongming was just a stranger. They continued to brag about their betting results as if they had become gods of gambling.
Only Bo Ge greeted Ye Zhongming, but his expression wasn’t very good.
Gao Yi and Zhao Xiangxue looked at their boss and felt like something had happened.
“So, if you should stop if you are unlucky. Don’t continue, or you will be like Bo Ge!”
Brother Yuan behaved like a boss and lectured Zhao Xiangxue.
There were many beauties here. He couldn’t offend those strong ones. Those he could get, like the female attendants, weren’t his type. Only cold people like Zhao Xiangxue, who looked pure, attracted him.
With Brother Yuan and Mo Qi’s judgment, they guessed that his young girl might even still be a virgin!
Two years had passed in the apocalypse, and such girls were even rarer than level-nine mutated lifeforms.
“You lost?”
No matter what, Bo Ge treated them well. He might have tried to flirt with Zhao Xiangxue, but at least he wasn’t arrogant. This gave Ye Zhongming a good impression of him. When he heard that he lost money, he asked.Bo Ge smiled awkwardly, “Unlucky, unlucky.”
Ye Zhongming looked at Bo Ge suspiciously and felt like he was too nice to those people.
The faction behind him might be weaker than Mo Qi and Brother Yuan, so if he couldn’t offend them, couldn’t he hide? Why did he have to lower himself?
However, as they were strangers, Ye Zhongming only had such a thought and didn’t think about helping him.
“He already said he is unlucky, so why are you asking?” Brother Yuan was annoyed, and those words caused Gao Yi to clench his fist.
“Aiya, the people sending me my spoils are here!” Brother Yuan pointed and saw a beautiful attendant. She smiled and passed the few of them, handing him a bag of crystals.
“I am quite lucky today and earned nearly a hundred level three crystals!”
Brother Yuan’s voice was really loud, and he attracted some attention. When others heard how much he had won, they looked envious. After all, if you were lucky, these crystals were two three-star potions, and even if you were unlucky, it would be one bottle. Although it wasn’t much, it was a decent income.
Bo Ge’s expression was even worse when he saw the bag.
But at this point, an attendant walked over with a tray. On it were many black bags. These bags were the same as the ones she gave to Brother Yuan, just bigger.
“This is your income; please take a look.”
Brother Yuan and the others were confused, “Did you get this wrong? We…”
“Give it to me.” Ye Zhongming interrupted them. He passed his tag. The attendant glanced and smiled as she handed him the few bags. She even winked at him when she left.
“Yours?”
Brother Yuan. Mo Qi and even Bo Ge were in disbelief.
“Boss won it!” Zhao Xiangxue was delighted. When she didn’t fight, she had the attitude of a little girl.
“Won?” Bo Ge asked instinctively, “How much?”
Ye Zhongming thought about it, “Around six hundred level three crystals?”
Everyone was silent when they heard it, but Mo Qi and Brother Yuan’s expressions weren’t good. They bragged that they had won a lot and realized that they didn’t even earn a fifth of what he got. Their faces felt like they were slapped.
Brother Yuan wanted to leave, but he was still interested in Zhao Xiangxue. “Since you won, then how about we have a game?”
He was still thinking about Li Qiang’s words and replied casually, “What game?”
Brother Yuan heard that he replied and was delighted, “We can add matches in Gory Red Arena. The most exciting one is called Free Competition.”
Brother Yuan explained, and Ye Zhongming understood what it was.
Free competition was an extra round where evolved could head down to challenge an opponent that Five Ring Money arranged for them. Another way is for evolved to battle each other like a duel. Just that this duel was flexible; it could be one against one or a team battle.
Five Ring Money wasn’t a charity. They purposely allowed such competition so that they could benefit.
Ye Zhongming thought about it and knew this free competition would become more popular.
Everyone would head on an adventure, so how do they split the items? What if they have conflicts? What if you get sneak-attacked? What if you envy what others have?
All this can be solved through the free competition.
The people who fight can take revenge or show off their strength. Those watching can get visual and mental satisfaction. Five Ring Money can get crystals. It benefited everyone.
Of course, it wasn’t good for the side who lost. They would lose money outside and lose their lives inside.
“So we should have a free competition?”
Ye Zhongming smiled at him, and before he replied, he shook his head, “You can’t.”
He was so firm, as if he was talking about the sun rising the next day.
The three of them were stunned. Mo Qi and Brother Yuan laughed loudly.
They thought Ye Zhongming would avoid it, giving them face. Who knew that before Brother Yuan officially challenged him, he would say that… He can’t.
This felt as amusing as a three-year-old kid telling an adult he couldn’t beat him.
They didn’t understand where he got his confidence from.
Bo Ge was shocked and didn’t expect Ye Zhongming to say that. He tried to explain, but he felt like there was nothing he could do.
“Kid, I have been long annoyed with you. Let’s go down and play?”
Brother Yuan might have been arrogant before, but he became very serious when it came to a battle.
Even if he felt that Ye Zhongming was trash.
He thought about Ye Zhongming’s diss and also how he continued to be in a daze. That underestimation and his being ignored made him furious.
What he didn’t know was that Ye Zhongming was thinking about the free competition. He wanted to con Five Ring Money and even earn a huge sum. The bright path ahead of him was spreading wide for Ye Zhongming.
