Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Gamblers Must Be Bold

Goo Yuexing’s brain couldn’t quite catch up, betting on Lu Xiao to win the Master Group championship?

Has Liuli Hong gone mad?

With Lu Xiao’s third-tier level, how could he win the championship? Swap his head for a trophy?

"It’s not Liuli, you don’t really believe Lu Xiao’s bullshit, do you? Fourth Rank is simply impossible!"

Over the phone, Liuli Hong couldn’t help but snort, "Nonsense, if Lu Xiao could reach Fourth Rank that quickly, I, Liuli Hong, would gladly call him grandpa."

"Then why are you telling me to bet on him winning the championship?" Goo Yuexing was somewhat confused.

What’s the deal, Liuli Hong, you think I have too much retirement money, that you want me to bleed cash?

"Don’t you know what kind of person that kid Lu Xiao is? Would he do anything if he wasn’t sure he’d succeed?"

"Since he says he’s participating in the Master Group, he’s clearly eyeing the money from an upset at the betting odds."

"No need to guess, Chen Fei will also compete, and in the end, Lu Xiao and Chen Fei will meet in the finals, and then Chen Fei will lose..."

After hearing Liuli Hong’s words, Goo Yuexing couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Fuck, that actually makes sense.

And the likelihood of this happening is pretty big.

Chen Fei making it into the finals is practically a certainty; a Fourth-order Metal Control Mutant, that’s an existence even Liuli Hong might not be able to beat.

As for Lu Xiao, he will surely sweep through to the semifinals.

To put it bluntly, there’s only one variable: it all depends on whether Lu Xiao encounters another third-tier or a Fourth Rank in the semifinals.

If he meets a third-tier, everything could work out; but if it’s a Fourth Rank, there’ll be no play.

So, Liuli Hong asking me to bet on Lu Xiao winning the championship indeed has some appeal.

This time in the Master Group, there are only two possible winners, either Lu Xiao or Chen Fei.

According to the usual betting rules, the lowest odds will not be less than 1.2.

In other words, as long as the funds are arranged properly, you can make a surefire profit. For instance, by betting ten million on Lu Xiao and fifty million on Chen Fei.

If Lu Xiao wins, ten million will turn into at least a billion; if Chen Fei wins, then there’s neither profit nor loss.

"How much are you betting?" Goo Yuexing swallowed and asked Liuli Hong.

"I still have a hundred million in principal," Liuli Hong chuckled.

The bet at the Civilization Book Club that Lu Xiao would survive hadn’t been settled yet; a hundred million was already his bottom-line capital.

"How are you allocating it? Twenty million on Lu Xiao and eighty million on Chen Fei?" Goo Yuexing continued to ask.

Liuli Hong laughed, are you kidding me here?

"We’re gamblers! Gamblers must have guts! Why bother with allocation, I’m putting the entire billion on Lu Xiao!" Liuli Hong roared.

Goo Yuexing took a deep breath, true to being Fourth-order big shots, they’re full of confidence.

Not like me, I can only spread my bets.

If I put everything on Lu Xiao and he doesn’t win the championship in the end, that would be a disaster.

"Enough talk, I’m off to sleep, can’t stay up late at my age." Liuli Hong didn’t continue bantering with Goo Yuexing and hung up after saying this.

...

Paris, nine in the morning, Lu Xiao had just finished freshening up when he heard the email notification sound from his phone.

Upon opening it, he saw it was a competition certificate sent by Goo Yuexing, with the group listed as the Master Group.

"Nice." Lu Xiao snapped his fingers, the first step was completed.

"Actually, Lu Xiao, I think there’s another most important point about this, which is whether you can match with a third-tier player in the semifinals," Chen Fei suddenly said from beside him.

She had been busy with Lu Xiao all of last night and had forgotten to bring up this issue.

"Third-tier or Fourth-order, it doesn’t matter," Lu Xiao waved his hand dismissively.

Chen Fei: ???

How can it not matter? If you’re matched with a Fourth-order, you won’t be able to make it to the finals.

If I can’t throw the match in the finals, how are you going to win the championship?

But the next second, Chen Fei thought of a way.

"You’re not thinking of having me take out your semifinal opponent in advance, are you?" Chen Fei asked with widened eyes.

That’s not impossible, but it’s easy to be discovered.

The organizers could easily deem the match invalid due to procedural irregularities and cancel Lu Xiao’s qualification to compete.

Lu Xiao shook his head, "No need for that."

"Then what else can you do?" Chen Fei didn’t understand, as Lu Xiao seemed full of confidence, but obviously, the chance of being matched with a third-tier was only an endless cycle of 33.333 percent.

"Because, I have this." Lu Xiao pulled out an exquisite box.

The box was given by Victoria, and inside the box was a Mutated Crystal.
