Baichao City, a certain study room.
Qi Kai played with the pen that was not dipped in ink, looking bored.
"Oh, it's boring!"
"Teacher, it's true. You leave your disciple here, and you don't know where to go to be happy."
Qi Kai complained: Let me see if there is anyone worth paying attention to. The Hundred Dynasties War has not started yet. Where can I pay attention? "
"What we have to deal with every day is how many points the team of that country has obtained..."
"Tsk, annoying!"
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Dong dong dong..."
Qi Kai glanced impatiently, "Come in!"
You don't need to think about it to know that today's summary is here. From the moment I came to Baichao City, I have only done this one thing.
Sure enough, I saw someone push open the door and walk over with a stack of paper in his hand and a flattering smile.
"Master Qi, this is today's summary, please take a look."
The person put the paper on the table and said.
Qi Kai put his hands on the table, resting his chin on his hands, glanced at her, and responded calmly: "Yes, I understand."
"Hey, okay."
The man stepped aside with a smile on his face, showing no intention of leaving.
Qi Kai raised his eyes and looked at him, "Is there anything else?"
In the past, people would leave after putting things away, but today they stood aside and waited, obviously something was wrong.
"Master Qi, I do have something to report."
The other party smiled.
"Then tell me."
Qi Kai rolled his eyes. Didn't he see that the young master was very annoyed now?
"Also, just talk, don't grin."
Upon hearing this, the other party immediately stopped smiling and looked much more serious.
"Hey, good!"
He said slowly: "Sir, actually something happened in the city today. There was a dispute between the two teams when they were getting points..."
What he was talking about was of course the bet between Huang Qiaoqian and Zhou Tong. It was something outside the rules that they couldn't decide on their own. They could only report it and let the most powerful person in Baichao City, Qi Kailai, decide. .
After hearing this, Qi Kai suddenly became more energetic and said, "The life-and-death bet is a bit interesting!"
"How often do you see this kind of thing? Just follow the instructions."
He looked at the other person and said.
Things like life-and-death bets are common in the martial arts world, but this has never been heard of in Baichao City. Maybe no one dares to challenge the rules.
But the other party looked embarrassed and said: "Master Qi, after all, this is in the city of Baichao. Before the war of Baichao begins, it is not suitable to see blood..."
"Then what do you think it's good to see?"
Qi Kai raised his eyebrows and said: "That is the rule in this city. The bet recognized by both parties is obviously outside the rules. What is there to hesitate about?"
The other party listened, but was not moved at all. He still looked embarrassed, "Sir, if this sets a precedent, more people will imitate it in the future, and there will be many disadvantages!"
Qi Kai frowned, thought about it, and realized the same reason. He clicked his tongue and said, "So why did your Qin State set this rule in the first place? You didn't expect that such a similar follow-up would happen?"
"The entire tube is dug and buried."
"bother!"
Listening to the complaints, a big bead of sweat could not help but drip down the man's forehead. In the entire city of Baichao, he was probably the only one who dared to complain about Qin like this.
Who would let someone come from the Daoyuan Sect? With a high family background, no one would blame him even if he said he was not from Qin.
If he said that, his head would be hanging on the city gate the next day.
This is the State of Qin, which has terrifying intelligence and investigation power, and can detail what you are eating tonight.
Qi Kai thought for a moment and said: "Well, in this city, doesn't the score mean everything?"
"Let the Shu team collect enough points before the Hundred Dynasties War begins, and then give them this chance."
"In this way, even if others know, they won't say anything, right?"
The other party thought for a while and nodded, "It's feasible! So, Sir, what is the appropriate score value?"
Qi Kai: "..."
"You have to ask me all this, so what do you need?"
His expression clearly showed impatience and some anger.
The other party was startled and said cautiously: "Because it is important to cause trouble, we dare not make this decision without authorization."
"I bore you so much, I apologize!"
"But you still have to ask."
He looks so much like him. I know I'm wrong, but I just won't change it.
Qi Kai rubbed his brows and was completely speechless. He finally knew why the teacher wanted him to sit here while he ran away to be happy.
These people, at best, do what they are told, but at worst, they are pedantic and incapable of being flexible. They will be like this for the rest of their lives.
But... life is precious. Wouldn't it be too perfunctory to set a number at random?
"Forget it, you're just giving away your own life anyway, so don't blame me for being cheap!"
Qi Kai made up his mind and said directly: "Deal 10,000."
"If the people of Shu can gather up to 10,000 points in these few days, let her kill them!"
"Not only that, you also have to be a guarantee for the Kingdom of Shu to prevent others from disrupting the execution of the bet!"
…
On the other side, in the hotel lobby, by the window.
Su Chen and Yin Jiao were sitting here drinking.
Just as he was speaking, Su Chen suddenly raised his eyebrows and glanced out the window as if nothing had happened, "I can't hold it in anymore so soon."
Hearing this, Yin Jiao calmly drank the wine in the glass, "In the past, anyone who dared to jump like this would have been completely wiped out by me."
"Why don't you let them dance like this now?"
Su Chen smiled, "Thousands of years of silence haven't softened your temper?"
"How can it be?"
Speaking of this, Yin Jiao's golden eyes looked a little lonely, "That's why I said, in the past."
"It's been a thousand years, and I haven't been able to take action properly. I don't know how much of the bloodiness I still have left."
It's also due to the difference between the lower realm of cultivation and the lonely cultivators that it can kill at will.
But what's the point?
Su Chen raised his wine glass towards it and said, "This is because your state of mind is insufficient, your blood has been wiped out, and it's because you can't control it freely."
Yin Jiao filled the glass with wine and clinked glasses with him, "Now that the matter has come to this, what's the use of talking about it?"
Su Chen smiled, "So, please bear with me."
Yin Jiao responded drunkenly.
On the street outside the window, Atuomu, who thought he was well hidden, didn't know that he had been discovered. When he saw the two people sitting in front of the window and drinking, he suddenly became angry.
"Damn, it turns out they are in the same team!"
Ah Tuomu was so angry that he punched the wooden stake on the lawn next to him. No wonder Su Chen helped Huang Qiaoqian and the others to speak up. They turned out to be in the same group!
But then, he couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart. If it was a group of people, wouldn't it be impossible to find an opportunity to strike?
Ever since he begged the referee and was disturbed, he had been resentful of falling in love with Su Chen.
Private fights are not allowed in Baichao City, so go outside the city!
This is the usual way. If things cannot be solved in the city, go outside the city and do everything on your own.
If you can't kill him, you can give him a lesson to relieve his anger.
Anyway, Su Chen is the only one here, so if things don't get serious, everything will be fine.
However, this was just his previous thought. When he saw Su Chen and the person standing behind Huang Qiaoqian drinking together, he knew that this idea could not be completed!
Just as he was about to go back unwillingly, he glanced at him and couldn't help but be startled, "Referee?"
He saw that the referee of the arena not long ago was now looking for Su Chen and the others.
A bad premonition arose in his heart.
"Could it be..."
Atuomu murmured, seeing that they were already talking, but from his position, he couldn't hear the conversation at all. He gritted his teeth and, risking exposure, quietly moved closer.
Poor him, he didn't know he had been discovered.
In the restaurant, Su Chen glanced at it and laughed in his heart, but he didn't care.
Because the referee in front of him brought pretty good news.
"It's worth ten thousand points. It seems that the points in Baichao City are quite valuable."
When Yin Jiao heard the news brought by the referee, he smiled and said, but the laughter sounded a bit teasing.
The referee was speechless as he listened. That was a human life, and 10,000 points was already very cheap.
But in Yin Jiao's view, the price was too high, and the life of the damned person was not worth so many points.
The referee said: "This is the answer I got after asking for instructions."
"We adults also thought that the person took his own life, so we set this amount. It is very reasonable."
Yin Jiao sneered slightly: "What is your highest reward score in the arena?"
"very."
The referee was startled and a little confused, but he still replied truthfully.
"How long will it take to raise ten thousand?"
Yin Jiao glanced at him with golden eyes, "It's quite simple to say, just open and close your lips."
After being said this, the referee suddenly became a little angry and said with a cold face: "You can't accept it, you can just forget it."
"You can't even earn these points, and you still want to take people's lives. It's ridiculous!"
After saying that, the referee rolled his sleeves and left angrily.
"boom!"
Yin Jiao put down the wine glass heavily, and a cold look appeared in his eyes. How dare a mere mortal dare to talk to him like this.
court death!
Su Chen said calmly, "Calm down."
"..."
Yin Jiao was silent for a moment and finally calmed down. Obviously, Su Chen's words were more effective than anything else.
"It's only worth ten thousand points, so it's not a lot."
Su Chen said: "The Hundred Dynasties War will start in nearly ten days, so there is plenty of time."
"But... we can't count on the three of them."
Yin Jiao knew who the three people he mentioned were indeed the truth. He was not strong enough to count on them at all.
"Okay, that's it for today."
With that said, Su Chen put down his wine glass and pointed out the window.
Yin Jiao understood and nodded cooperatively, "Okay!"
Outside the window, A Tuomu squatted under the window and heard everything they just said. The turmoil in his heart could not be calmed.
Is Zhou Tong still destined to die after all?
The Hundred Dynasties War has not yet begun, and they are about to lose one person. This kind of thing has never happened in all the Hundred Dynasties Wars!
If this was reported back to Beiliao, what awaited them would not be a celebration banquet, but the king's wrath!
"No, we must find a way to stop it!"
Ah Tuomu left with a heavy heart, not noticing at all that two figures were leaning against the window edge, one on the left and one on the right, looking at him.
"It's almost done for him to hear."
Yin Jiao said calmly.
"It doesn't matter, the more you know, the heavier your heart will be, and you will only feel that you are powerless."
Su Chen's eyes were sarcastic, "Get ready to feel the dimension-reducing blow from the immortal cultivators to the martial cultivators."
"What are you going to do?"
Yin Jiao looked at him and asked.
Su Chen raised the corner of his mouth and said to it, "Brush your points!"
