"That's what I think. I won't set up the formation now. Wait until you enter the Tianmeng and see if you can make some formation mages. Then it will be cheaper to ask them to set up the formation."
Gu Shuo rolled his eyes. He hadn't entered the Tianmeng yet, but he was already thinking about it. However, for the sake of the sect, he had no objection and nodded:
"Okay, I'll try my best."
"You asked me to set up the formation. Do you have something to tell me?" Bei Wushuang suddenly remembered that it was Gu Shuo who asked him to set up the formation.
"Oh!" Gu Shuo also remembered it, took out a palm-sized flying boat from the storage ring, handed it to Bei Wushuang and said, "Take a look."
"High-quality flying boat!"
Bei Wushuang's eyes suddenly widened, he stretched out his hand to grab it, and looked at it carefully: "This flying boat of yours is the top of the best. It not only has defensive capabilities, but also offensive capabilities."
"Well, I bought it in disguise at Xingyue Trading Company. It's the best."
"Where did you get so many spiritual stones? Oh, the treasure of the Dragon Palace. By the way, how much benefit did you get? Forget it, I won't ask. But you should be careful in the future and don't reveal your wealth."
"I see!"
The three of them talked about the future again. This future was based on Gu Shuo being able to enter the top 100 and become a disciple of the Tianmeng. Otherwise, even if Gu Shuo can travel twice and obtain middle-level skills and Taoist skills, Qingyun Sect will not be able to keep it. Only by becoming a disciple of the Tianmeng can the four major sects in the North be afraid. Then, Bei Wushuang suddenly stood up:
"Okay, don't go anywhere these days. Just practice here and strive to break through to the next level. We are leaving, and we can't waste your time here."
Then without waiting for Gu Shuo to respond, he put away the formation flag and left in a hurry with Tan Shijun. But that night, all the monks knew the news, and no one went out for a while. They were all practicing in their rooms.
Gu Shuo is naturally also practicing. In addition to capturing life particles every day, he also devotes an hour every day to comprehend the secrets. Don’t even think about the secret of wind, there is no such environment.
But he has the secret of killing that Zhou Tianbaolu instilled in him. In fact, it is more than the secret of killing. Gu Shuo is currently at a low level, but he understands those things that are deposited deep in his consciousness. There are too many things that he cannot comprehend. It is estimated that killing There are all kinds of ways and realms. After all, those powerful monks who had mastered Zhou Tianbao's treasure were of all realms. And his secret of killing was just a step away, approaching quickly.
The rest of the time is training. Holding the water and fire spirit stone, he continued to practice. But he knew in his heart that even if he practiced continuously, he would not be able to break through. After all, he had just broken through to the fifth level of the Golden Core. Even with such continuous practice, it would still take about two months for him to break through to the sixth level of the Golden Core. Heavy. The Tianxuan Competition will be officially held in six days.
The day before the competition, Sun Yi called all the players for a mobilization meeting. After the mobilization, everyone did not leave. Instead, Sun Yi held a banquet for everyone. At the banquet, everyone chatted about various aspects of the Tianxuan Competition.
The Tianmeng is very reasonable. The main purpose of the Tianxuan Competition is to recruit disciples. Of course, it also promotes the prosperity of cultivation, but that comes second. So the emphasis is on survival of the fittest.
The Tianmeng announced a ranking, because Gu Shuo's cultivation level was the lowest, but he ranked first in the Northland Competition. Therefore, among the 1,220 Jindan players, Gu Shuo ranked 1,211th. The remaining nine are the nine golden elixirs of the North.
There is nothing wrong with this ranking in the eyes of almost everyone.
Your fifth-level golden elixir ranks first in the North. Can you imagine how weak your golden elixir in the North is?
If not placed at the end of the crane, where should it be placed?
Liang Wei and others were very angry, but Gu Shuo looked at it openly and said with a smile: "Isn't this bad?"
Liang Wei said with a dark face: "What's so good about this? Junior Brother Gu, we have been underestimated, underestimated."
"Calm down, calm down!" Gu Shuo patted Liang Wei on the shoulder: "Isn't it bad to underestimate us? Our opponents will underestimate us because of this, which becomes our advantage. Maybe all ten of us will pass the first place. A round is no longer a round trip.”
Everyone looked stunned, and then looked weird, with both unwillingness and joy.
"And...who among you has been out these days?"
Everyone shook their heads and practiced in Huangyuan. Gu Shuo shouted to Bei Wushuang not far away:
"Sect Master, is there any gambling in this Tianxuan Competition?"
"You want to bet?" Bei Wushuang looked stunned.
"Yes, it seems that we have it. Sect Master, please tell me."
Everyone also looked over with interest. Bei Wushuang said: "I really took a look. These casinos all set odds based on the strength rankings announced by Tianmeng, plus their own analysis. For example, if you win The odds of winning first place are one thousand to one. How about it, do you have any ideas?”
Sun Yi and others also looked over curiously. There is also a trace of expectation in the eyes. Although it feels impossible, there is still a trace of illusory expectation in my heart.
Gu Shuo shook his head quickly and read the information. Really not sure. If he were asked to bet on himself being the first, it felt like there was no chance, but it also felt like throwing spiritual stones into it. Half and half.
This is no longer a gamble.
It’s not easy to earn some spiritual stones by yourself.
"Sect Master, let's put this aside first. Are there any bets for a single game? For example, my first game."
"Yes!" Bei Wushuang said: "I paid special attention to it. You also know that the Tianxuan Competition is about the survival of the fittest. So the first round is a competition to eliminate the weak.
Divide one thousand two hundred and twenty players into two groups. The first group ranked first to 610th according to Tianmeng’s analysis. The second group is from 611th to 1220th place. Then the first place will hit the 611th place, and the second place will hit the 612th place. Do you understand? "
"Understood!"
What's not clear about this? Gu Shuo's face showed joy: "So, our ten opponents are the ten weakest in the first group, right?"
"Yes!" Bei Wushuang nodded.
Gu Shuo looked at Liang Wei and others happily: "Are you confident? Our current class is the strongest in history, because our golden elixirs have all understood the killing intent. I have also read the information. Facing the first group With the last ten people, we may not have a chance of winning."
Everyone nodded excitedly.
Hua Su raised her hand and said, "Sect Master, Sect Master, are we also taking pictures from behind?"
Bei Wushuang nodded and said: "Yes, we in the North are looked down upon by the whole, and so are you."
The ten fusion realm monks also became happy. You must know that some of them have realized the intention, and those who have not realized the intention have also realized the potential.
Because of the clan war this time, they have a deep understanding of murderous intent.
The ten fusions are also dreaming that they can win, thus breaking the record of a round trip in the Northland, and will definitely leave a mark in the history of the Northland. Moreover, after returning, he will be vigorously cultivated by the sect and the resources will be tilted.
"Sect Master, let me tell you my odds for a single game first. Are the odds out?"
"It's out. Tomorrow is the big competition. Not only is your opponent out, but the odds are also out. Your opponent is Zhang Lingshan, a disciple of the Zhang family of the central family, Jindan Perfection."
Information about Zhang Lingshan immediately flashed into Gu Shuo's mind.
Zhang Lingshan, perfect golden elixir. The golden spirit root, the ninth level of Kaidan, the Taoist practice is the ram's horn sword technique, and the sword power is perfect. He is also proficient in palm techniques, switching to cutting palms, which are as sharp as a knife.
Gu Shuo felt that he could win.
"Odds, Master, odds."
"One to ten."
"Tsk, I must buy this. Sect Master, which one has the best reputation?"
"Of course it's Tianmeng."
"Is Tianmeng still gambling?"
"certainly!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Where can I buy it?"
"This is very simple. Tianmeng Casino attaches great importance to contestants like us. If you want to buy, they will provide door-to-door service. But there is a rule, that is, those of us in the North, including those of us who do not participate in the competition, cannot buy Bei If the local player loses, he can only win by buying.”
"Of course this is a winning proposition, Sect Leader Sun, I'll buy it."
"Okay, I'll ask the people from Huangyuan to invite people from the casino." Sun Yi arranged for a disciple to notify the manager of Huangyuan. At this time, Liang Wei, Hua Su and others also began to inquire about their single-game odds.
Gu Shuo sat there speechless, checking his worth.
There are really too many spirit stones, which are the entire family fortune of the White Bone Sect. There are tens of billions of ordinary spiritual stones, of which 20% are high-grade spiritual stones, 30% are medium-grade spiritual stones, and the rest are low-grade spiritual stones.
There are also water and fire spiritual stones.
Gu Shuo took stock and found that he had broken through to the fifth level of the golden elixir and had consumed a lot. Now he still had about 90 million of the water and fire spirit stones left. It is estimated that when he breaks through to the golden elixir and completes it, he will have less than 40 million left. look like. From the first level of the golden elixir to the perfection of the golden elixir, it will consume about 70 million water and fire spiritual stones. What about breaking through from the golden elixir to the next realm?
These water and fire spirit stones are obviously not enough. According to the estimation that each state requires ten times the consumption, the next state may require 700 million water and fire spirit stones.
You can't just gamble, you'll lose nine points. Therefore, he must keep the water and fire spirit stones that he has cultivated to the perfection of the golden elixir. In this way, he can only use 40 million water and fire spirit stones.
By the way, if I bet on water and fire spiritual stones, will the ones accompanying me also be water and fire spiritual stones?
If it is, I will bet on the water and fire spirit stones, and the ordinary spirit stones will not move. You can't move too many spiritual stones to show that you are so rich. It can be explained that he has the Water and Fire Spiritual Stone. After all, he traveled on the ancient road and got the treasure of the Dragon Palace. But don’t take too much. Just use 20 million.
I bet 10 million on myself to win the championship, and if I lose in the end, I will lose. I am confident that I can win back from a single game. What if you want to win?
A thousand times the odds.
Ten million water and fire spiritual stones each means ten billion water and fire spiritual stones each.
It's not too late to bet. As long as I win tomorrow, the odds of winning will definitely change. While he was thinking about this, a manager from Huangyuan walked in with two people.
One of the two people is a middle-aged man and the other is a young man. The middle-aged man came in and said with a smile, without any pride of the monks in the middle of the country, only the kindness of a businessman:
"I have met all of you Taoist friends and geniuses. My surname is Huang. Do you want to place a bet?"
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Gu Shuo. It was Gu Shuo who started this matter, and Sun Yi and others also had confidence in Gu Shuo. To be honest, they really had no confidence in others. They all wanted to see how much Gu Shuo had bet, so that they could judge Gu Shuo's confidence and decide how much they would bet.
That spirited monk surnamed Huang immediately locked his eyes on Gu Shuo: "Is this genius Gu Shuo?"
"Tsk!" Gu Shuo rubbed Yahuazi. These people really worked hard for each player: "Huang Daoyou, because I have water and fire spiritual roots, I need water and fire spiritual stones very much. If I have water and fire spiritual stones, If I win the bet, can Tianmeng Casino settle the bet with water, fire, and spirit stones?"
"No problem!" Monk Huang nodded immediately without any hesitation.
Gu Shuo couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Great!"
The monk surnamed Huang said with a smile: "Our casino only uses spirit stones for settlement, but we can pay different spirit stones according to the requirements of the guests. Of course, if you want a special spirit stone, you must also use that kind of spirit stone when you place a bet. .”
Gu Shuo immediately took out a storage ring and handed it to the monk named Huang: "Here are 20 million water spirit stones and 20 million fire spirit stones. Well, they are all low-grade."
Speaking of this, Gu Shuo couldn't help but sigh. He had obtained so many water and fire spiritual stones, but he didn't even have a middle-grade one. This shows how precious the attribute spiritual stones are.
However, at this time, the entire hall was silent, and even the monk named Huang opened his mouth. It's not that he has never seen spirit stones before, he has seen spirit stones with more attributes than this. But I really didn't expect that a Northland monk, who was still a small golden elixir, would have so many water and fire spiritual stones.
As for the others, they were even more shocked and confused.
Water, fire and spiritual stone.
Even the four major sects in the North have not fallen behind so much, okay?
After smacking his lips, the well-informed monk surnamed Huang reacted first, with a more friendly expression: "Fellow Taoist Ancient Master, how do you want to place your bet?"
"Ten million low-grade water spirit stones and ten million low-grade fire spirit stones. Bet that I will come first."
"The final number one in the Tianxuan Competition?" The monk surnamed Huang's voice suddenly rose.
"Yeah!" Gu Shuo nodded.
"Are you serious?" Brother Huang confirmed again.
"seriously."
"Okay!" Brother Huang was happy. In his opinion, this was Gu Shuo's free gift of spiritual stones, and they were also water and fire spiritual stones: "What about the remaining ten million water spiritual stones and ten million fire spiritual stones?"
"Betting on a single game, I win."
"good!"
The monk surnamed Huang immediately took out the jade slip specially designed for Tianmeng Casino, conveyed the information, and then handed it to Gu Shuo. Then he looked at everyone:
"Fellow Taoists, how do you place your bets?"
Sun Yi took a deep breath. He was shocked by Gu Shuo's generosity.
How much confidence does this require?
Squeezing out a smile: "Fellow Daoist Huang, let us discuss this."
"Okay, I'll wait outside." The monk surnamed Huang smiled and left with the other two people.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Sun Yi immediately raised the formation flag and set up an isolation formation. Then he stared at Gu Shuo and asked, "Gu Shuo, how confident are you?"
"Winning first place in the Tianxuan Competition is not guaranteed."
