Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lying on the laboratory’s table, Chen Xiaobei flushed out the toxin in his body while going through the transformation. Today was also the day of the Go Compet.i.tion. Before it started, the Red Envelope Group flooded with excitement.

Wei Xiaobao: Time for bets! Time for bets! Let’s see who can become the champion of this Go Compet.i.tion! Yan Ziqin’s odds are two to one! Fan Xipin’s odds are three to one! Huang Longs.h.i.+’s odds are five to one!”

“Eh? All these people are legendary Go players!”

While chatting with them, Chen Xiaobei went online to do some research about the people that Wei Xiaobao had just mentioned.

Bull Demon King: Wei Xiaobeo! There’s a high chance that either one of them is going to become the champion today! Do you possess the skillful young blood that is needed to defeat them?

Wei Xiaobao: Yes! Bull Demon King’s odds are ten thousand to one!

Bull Demon King: d.a.m.n! You know that I have no idea how to play Go! Are you trying to make fun of me?

Wei Xiaobao: Bull Demon King, the champion of this compet.i.tion will be born from the three people that I mentioned just now. No one will place anymore bets even if I open more options for others!

Monkey King: Include my Bro Bei in it and I will bet on him!

Wei Xiaobei: Erm… G.o.d Chen is extremely unpredictable… I don’t dare include him into my bet… I will lose all my money if he becomes the champion later!

Yan Ziqin: Master Wei, I don’t like what you just said! G.o.d Chen is born in modern society! Even if his Go skills are good, I don’t think he is good enough to compete with us!

Fan Xipin: Ain’t that right?! All of out skills are lost in time! All we need to do is to surprise him with some of the unseen strategies and he would fall off his chair!

Huang Longs.h.i.+: I’m not trying to brag here. I don’t think G.o.d Chen can defeat me even if I let him move ten steps ahead of me!

Monkey King: Come! Come! Come! I will become the dealer this time! If you think G.o.d Chen is going to lose in this compet.i.tion, I welcome you to come place your bets! For me, I bet that he is going to win in this compet.i.tion!

Yan Ziqin: Fine! Though we don’t have any valuable items with us, we still want to place our bets!

Huang Longs.h.i.+: You are right! We are pretty confident that we can beat him in this compet.i.tion! No matter what, this is a bet we have to make!

Fan Xipin: Count me in too!

Wei Xiaobao: Monkey King, why are you doing this to yourself? I know that your relations.h.i.+p with G.o.d Chen is really good but I really don’t think that he is going to win this compet.i.tion! I’m going to bet as well!

Everyone: Let me bet… I’m going to bet too… Monkey King! I think all the fur on your body would be gone by the end of this compet.i.tion!

Monkey King: Come! Come! Come! I’m no Monkey King if I’m afraid of you guys!

“d.a.m.n! My bro, Monkey King is bold as f*ck! He is going to lose everything he ever had if I lose this compet.i.tion! Zaar, how far are we from our destination?” asked Chen Xiaobei.

“Soon! We will reach our destination in five minutes!”

“Great. I hope my strategy will work out smoothly… I don’t want Monkey King suffer because of me!”

Shen Gongpao: @Chen Xiaobei! Come out! I know that you are reading our chat quietly!

Chen Xiaobei: s.h.i.+xiong Shen, how can I help you?

Shen Gongpao: Do you still remember the thing that you told me three days ago?

Chen Xiaobei: I said a lot of things three days ago… What are you talking about?

Shen Gongpao: That day, you said that everyone is no match for you when it comes to Go! You even betted that you would become the champion in this compet.i.tion!

Chen Xiaobei: Yes! I did say something like that!

Shen Gongpao: Great! Hats off to you for keeping your promise! I believe that you won’t break your promise, right?

Chen Xiaobei: Never! What do you want to bet?

Shen Gongpao: I want to take away a Spiritual Item from you if you can’t win in this compet.i.tion!

Chen Xiaobei: I have a lot of Spiritual Items with me. Which one do you want?

Shen Gongpao: The black saber! The black saber that is crafted with the Demonic Black Dragon’s bones!

Chen Xiaobei: Pfft! It seems like you have quite a big appet.i.te over there! Everyone knows that the material that was used to craft this black saber is extremely valuable and it’s built by mu Sifu! What are you going to bet with me? I hope the bet that you have to offer matches my black saber’s value.

Shen Gongpao: I have this book called Primordial Jade Divine Incantation! This is one of the best skills one can ever learn in the heavens! I believe this item is as valuable as your black saber!

Monkey King: Shen Gongpao, are you insane?! G.o.d Chen already has a Scripture of Heaven and Earth with him and your Primordial Jade Divine Incantation is not nearly as powerful as his! Why would he want to bet with you?!

Chen Xiaobei: No! I’m totally fine with it! As long as it is as valuable as my black saber!

Monkey King: It’s true that the Primordial Jade Divine Incantation is extremely valuable but one cannot learn two similar skills! It’s useless to you even if you have it with you!

Chen Xiaobei: It’s useful to me!

Clearly, Chen Xiaobei was not going to learn this skill. He was going to ask Xiangyu, Bei Xuan’s disciples, friends, and families to learn it. The reason why Chen Xiaobei could not teach them the Scripture of Heaven and Earth was because this skill could be only pa.s.sed down to the disciples of Jieism. In other words, if Chen Xiaobei won the Primordial Jade Divine Incantation book, he would become the new owner of this skill by default! And he was free to teach this skill to anyone around him.

Shen Gongpao: Great! Our bets are now set in stone!

Chen Xiaobei: Fine! Since s.h.i.+xong Shen is really looking forward to this bet, I shall make sure everything goes smooth from this moment onwards!

Shen Gongpao: Nice! I will announce our bet to the group in a while. The first match of this compet.i.tion will be held in ten minutes time! The winner will get to advance to the next round and the loser will be disqualified!

Chen Xiaobei: No problem!

A few minutes later, the iteneary of the compet.i.tion was sent to Chen Xiaobei.

“Eh? I’m going against Huang Longhsi in the first round? It seems like Shen Gongpao has given me ‘special care’!”

Wei Xiaobao: d.a.m.n! G.o.d Chen’s luck is pretty d.a.m.n bad today! He is going to lose this round since his opponent is Huang Longs.h.i.+. Monkey King! Get ready to lose your entire bet!

Monkey King: It’s still too early to say that!

Huang Longs.h.i.+: You know what G.o.d Chen… I’m not going to bully you! I will let you make a few moves before me!

Chen Xiaobei: Thank you elder. I shall do what you say then!

Fan Xipin: Hehe… Such a gentleman! By doing that, G.o.d Chen is not going to suffer from a terrible loss!

Shen Gongpao: Still, an amateur like him will never beat Huang Longs.h.i.+!

Chen Xiaobei: It’s better for you not to draw conclusions so quickly! Othewise, you might have to slap your own face later!

Shen Gongpao: Hmph! You?! There’s no way you can make me slap my own face!

“Mr. Chen! We are here!”

Zaar stopped his car in front of a tall skysc.r.a.per.

They then took the elevator to the top floor.

When the door was opened, they had arrived at the place where Chen Xiaobei wanted to go.

Chen Xiaobei let out a long breath and looked around the room.

“Whether I win in this compet.i.tion or not, it’s all up to you guys now!” said Chen Xiaobei while gleefully rubbing his hands.
