Chapter 42: Chips

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

For example, he learned that a rich young lady fell for a poor boy and insisted on marrying him. In the end, not long after, that poor boy’s limbs were broken and he was thrown to the Cangyang Lake.

He also heard that the son of a certain wealthy man once hid his identity and pretended to be poor in order to find his true love.

Perhaps it was because the son of that wealthy man had a misunderstanding about poverty.

He felt that with a few hundred thousand yuan in his savings and a car worth more than a hundred thousand yuan, he was already considered poor.

In the end, the girl he got together with only wanted his money.

Meanwhile, Wang Yi listened with interest and found the stories quite interesting!

“Next, I have an urgent piece of news! I have news that a disciple from the Daoist temple of Tianzuo City has stepped into the peak of the Battle Warrior Rank at the age of 23 years old. The peerless prodigy is called Hua Changyan.”

“She secretly learned techniques from the top-secret manual of the Daoist temple and cruelly assassinated her mentor, Grandmaster Hua Sheng. After her deeds were exposed, she was injured by the dean, Zong Tianlin, with the Heaven Imprisoning Finger. Only less than 10% of her strength remains.”

“She has already fled from Tianzuo City yesterday. She fled towards the 13 Southwest Cities of Langya County City!”

“The Daoist temple of Tianzuo City has issued a reward! Anyone who provides the location of Hua Changyan and if the authenticity of the information is confirmed, they’ll be able to choose a high-grade secret manual from the Daoist temple!”

“Meanwhile, anyone who can capture Hua Changyan alive and send her to the Daoist temple in Tianzuo City can choose a top-grade secret manual from the Daoist temple!”

“The secret manual can only be learned by the person who received the reward. If it’s used for other purposes or leaked, the Daoist temple of Tianzuo City has the right to take it back!”

Wang Yi sighed slightly and couldn’t help but feel a little regretful. This person had reached the peak of the Battle Warrior Rank at the age of 23 years old. He could be considered a genius!

Meanwhile, the driver’s eyes lit up as he said excitedly, “A high-grade secret manual? If I encounter this genius and receive the reward, I’ll let my son study it. I’ll simply have to enjoy the rest of my life after that!”

Wang Yi pursed his lips and teased, “Uncle, don’t waste your breath!”

“It’s fortunate that you didn’t encounter him. Otherwise, it would be hard to say if you would be able to live the rest of your life, let alone enjoy your life!”

The driver couldn’t help but be taken aback as he felt a chill run down his spine. He scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. “Yes! Yes! Thankfully, I didn’t meet him!”

Then, the driver stepped on the brakes and stopped the car by the side of the road.

Wang Yi looked out of the car window and saw a huge building that was not inferior to the Tuling Dojo. It stood there like a sleeping beast.

However, unlike the Tuling Dojo, there were clearly more people here.

The expressions of the pedestrians were either excited, depressed, calm, or expressionless. They were like zombies!

They vividly portrayed all the aspects of life!

A huge plaque that was completely carved from Night Flower Stone was erected on the top floor of the giant beast-like building.

Xu Family Battle Arena!

Wang Yi could not help but chuckle. It was as if the Xu family was afraid that others would not know that this business belonged to their family.

Wang Yi opened the door and got out of the taxi. Then, he stood by the road and looked at the Battle Arena.

The Silver-Winged Cloud Leopard also jumped out of the taxi. It stood up and swayed its small head as it walked behind him.

“Hello! The total fare is 13 yuan. You just gave me 100 yuan, so I’ll return you 87 yuan!” The driver said as he counted the change.

“There’s no need for that. Take the change as the fees for listening to your stories!”

As soon as Wang Yi finished speaking, the man and leopard walked toward the Battle Arena.

The driver could not help but be stunned when he heard this. He looked up again and saw no sign of Wang Yi.

He held the change in his hand and was very happy. This was an unexpected fortune.

Nowadays, ordinary workers could only earn 1,000 to 2,000 yuan a month. This trip was equivalent to the rest of his daily salary.

Meanwhile, Wang Yi did not care about the other party’s reaction and followed the crowd to the Battle Arena.

“Have you heard? The Blood Hand Butcher Luo Wen has already achieved ten consecutive victories yesterday. Those who bet on him have made a huge fortune!”

“That’s nothing. Yesterday, the Sick Demon Li Sanpeng went crazy and killed the Bone Crusher Li Ning, who is ranked 35th. That battle was truly terrifying. Basically, everyone bet that Li Ning would win, but in the end, many people went bankrupt and some even jumped off a building!”

Wang Yi shook his head as he listened to the conversation between the passers-by.

Did they want to win? It was impossible!

These gamblers were just like crops that were raised by the Xu family.

They might allow these gamblers to win a little. [f these gamblers could stop in time, they could make a small profit.

However, most people would be caught up in it and be chopped up by the Xu family!

For example, the huge commotion that person had mentioned was clearly a trap by the Xu family!

They had arranged for two martial artists with very different strengths to fight.

The gamblers would naturally bet on the stronger person, even though the odds would be lower.

Thus, the banker made use of the gamblers’ mentality and used the life of a martial arts warrior to ruthlessly cut a bunch of chives.

Of course, if too many people bet that the weaker warrior would win, the winner would be the stronger warrior.

As the saying went, nine out of ten gambles were lies. Only the Xu family was the eternal winner!

After walking into the Battle Arena, Wang Yi was a little surprised. It was not in the style of an underground boxing ring.

Instead, it was more like an ancient palace. It had a golden roof, a red door, and a golden pillar with a dragon coiled around it. This antique style made people feel comfortable.

In the main hall, waiters kept walking past. They were dressed in ancient palace attire, making it really feel like they were in an ancient palace.

Wang Yi could not understand why a place that was similar to an underground boxing ring would be so elegant.

All the gamblers followed the rules and walked to a reception area to line up.

Since he had nothing to do, Wang Yi followed the stream of people and joined the long queue.

However, the efficiency at the front desk seemed to be very good. After a while, it was Wang Yi’s turn.

“Sir, how many chips do you want to purchase?”

Behind the counter, a beautiful girl in palace attire asked with a professional smile.

Wang Yi suddenly realized that this was the place to exchange money for chips.

Although Wang Yi was here to look for trouble, there was no need to make things difficult for the girl in front of him.

After all, the other party was just working. Meanwhile, he was looking for someone from the Xu family.

Furthermore, although he was furious that the Xu family had suppressed the Su family, he still followed the rules.

This made Wang Yi willing to attack the Xu family under the rules.

Swoosh!

With a thought, the black leather bag containing five million yuan instantly appeared in his hand from the system space.

Then, Wang Yi threw his bag on the counter. Under the girl’s surprised gaze, he said, “I’ll exchange these!”

The girl opened the purse’s zipper, and her mouth fell open in shock.

Exchanging five million yuan for chips at one go wasn’t that big of a deal. After all, there were people who exchanged larger amounts of money.

However, what really surprised the girl was that she had never seen anyone come with so much cash.

This was because the customers who came here would basically use their cards no matter how much money they exchanged for chips. When they left, they would exchange their chips for cash and transfer the money to their accounts.

The girl was put in a difficult position, but her professional smile remained unchanged. She smiled and said, “Sir, I’m sorry. Please wait for a moment!”
