"Kid, did you hear what the Vice Guild Master said? If you can't prove your identity as a Grade Nine Alchemist, the Alchemist Guild will take back the Alchemist Badge you're wearing."
Xiao He looked at Duan Lingtian with eyes filled with ridicule.
What a joke!
No matter what, he wouldn't believe that such a little kid would be a Grade Nine Alchemist …
Numerous gazes descended onto Duan Lingtian.
Even more people were waiting to see Duan Lingtian make a fool of himself.
"None of you believe that I'm a Grade Nine Alchemist?"
Duan Lingtian glanced at the surroundings and asked indifferently.
Although no one replied, the questioning gazes of everyone explained everything …
"You're called Xiao He, right?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Xiao He, and a trace of a crafty light flashed within his eyes, but Xiao He didn't notice it.
"Yes, I'm Xiao He."
Xiao He raised his head and was incomparably arrogant, completely not taking Duan Lingtian seriously.
"If I make a bet with you, do you dare?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Humph! I'm not interested in making a bet with you. "
Xiao He sneered. Although he didn't know what Chen Xi had up his sleeve, since he was able to become a Grade Nine Alchemist at the age of 20, he naturally wouldn't be an idiot.
"Haha … A 20 year old Grade Nine Alchemist, the most talented alchemist in the younger generation of the Crimson Sky Kingdom? You don't deserve your reputation! "
Duan Ling Tian chuckled with a carefree expression, but anyone was able to discern that Duan Ling Tian was ridiculing Xiao He for being a coward.
"Kid, don't change the topic … Didn't you hear what the Vice Guild Master said? If you can't prove that you're an alchemist, then you must hand over your Alchemist Badge! "
Xiao He looked at Duan Lingtian with an expression that seemed to say 'Stop pretending, I've seen through you since long ago.'
"When did I change the topic? The bet I made with you was because I agreed to the Vice Guild Master's request. What I want to bet with you is that if I can prove that I'm a Grade Nine Alchemist, then you'll lose 5,000,000 silver to me. On the other hand, now that I have no proof, I will also lose five million taels of silver to you … Do you dare? "
Duan Lingtian looked at Xiao He calmly.
Five million silver taels?
Whoosh!
Duan Lingtian's bet was like a stone that stirred up thousands of ripples …
The crowd was in an uproar!
Even the Vice Guild Master of the Alchemist Guild, Ye Lun, looked at Duan Lingtian with interest …
Could he really be a ninth grade alchemist?
But if he was really a grade nine alchemist and had passed the certification to obtain the Alchemist Guild's badge, then why didn't the Alchemist Guild he registered himself with report this matter to the headquarters?
There were too many doubts in Ye Lun's heart …
"Five million silver taels?"
Xiao He was stunned.
Five million taels of silver was nothing in his eyes.
If he wanted it, the Xiao Clan would definitely satisfy him …
After all, he was a genius alchemist that was heavily fostered by the Xiao Clan, and he would sooner or later become an existence that would become a grade seven alchemist.
However, he had only become a grade nine alchemist for a little over a year, and even if he refined pills normally, he would accept assignments from the Alchemist Guild to earn points from the Alchemist Guild.
Now, he only had the three million plus silver that his clan gave him.
"What? You don't dare?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Xiao He and laughed. "So, you think I should be a grade nine alchemist as well … Now, shouldn't you take back your words of questioning me and admit that I'm a grade nine alchemist? At the same time, you have to admit that I'm an even more genius alchemist than you! You're the most genius alchemist in the Crimson Sky Kingdom's younger generation, but you only have an undeserved reputation! "
Since the moment Xiao He appeared, Duan Lingtian was able to discern what kind of person he was …
Xiao He was arrogant and looked down on everyone.
And now, it was precisely because of this that he was forcing Xiao He to accept his bet under the gazes of everyone present.
He believed that with Xiao He's arrogant personality, he would absolutely not admit that he didn't dare.
"Haha … What bullshit genius alchemist, you're only a coward!"
Duan Lingtian continued to add fuel to the fire, destroying the last line of defense in Xiao He's heart …
Ye Lun glanced deeply at Duan Lingtian.
Could it be that this violet-clothed youth was really confident?
"OK, I promise you! However, can you take out five million taels of silver? "
Xiao He finally agreed and looked at Duan Lingtian with a face full of ridicule.
As far as he was concerned, this youth's words earlier were surely to intentionally embarrass him …
Now, he would expose Xiao He's lies!
Five million taels of silver, can you take it out?
For a moment, the gazes of the surrounding crowd all descended onto Duan Lingtian.
They were also shocked by the bet that Duan Lingtian spoke of earlier …
Five million silver wasn't something that anyone could casually take out!
Even if it was a grade nine alchemist, wanting to earn so much silver would at least require tens of years of time …
"Are you sure you agree?"
When Duan Lingtian heard Xiao He's words, he wasn't in a hurry to take out the silver notes. He wanted to let Xiao He completely fall into his trap. This way, Xiao He wouldn't be able to go back on his words.
"What, you're scared?"
Seeing Duan Lingtian acting like this, Xiao He naturally thought that Duan Lingtian was feeling guilty. He laughed out loud and looked at the surroundings before looking at Ye Lun, "Vice President, today, you and everyone here will be the witnesses …"
"I, Xiao He, will make a bet with this ignorant kid. If he can prove that he is a grade nine alchemist, I will lose to him five million silver! If he can't prove that he is a grade nine alchemist, he will also lose to me five million silver! "
"Of course, the prerequisite for this bet is that he can take out five million silver!"
As he finished speaking, Xiao He added another sentence …
The meaning was that if Duan Lingtian couldn't take out so much silver, then the bet was meaningless.
As far as he was concerned, doing this was enough to expose Duan Lingtian's scheme.
"Of course I can take out the silver … But, I'm afraid you can't."
When Duan Lingtian heard Xiao He's words, he lightly smiled.
"I can't take it out? Kid, I'm a 'genius alchemist' that the Xiao Clan is heavily nurturing. Five million silver is only a matter of a word from me. I understand now, this is just an excuse. Because you can't take out five million silver, you deliberately said this, right? "
The expression on Xiao He's face became even more serious. The last trace of worry in his heart vanished without a trace. He firmly believed that Duan Lingtian couldn't take out so much silver, and that all of this was done intentionally by Duan Lingtian. The goal was to make him not dare to accept the bet and make him lose face and be embarrassed in front of everyone.
"What, you've been exposed by me? You have nothing to say? "
Seeing that Duan Lingtian seemed to be slightly hesitant, Xiao He sneered, "If you don't have so much silver, then don't puff yourself up at your own cost! If you're sensible, then don't speak any more nonsense and quickly hand over the crest you're wearing. "
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed as he indifferently said, "As long as you can take out five million silver and hand it over to this Vice Guild Master as the 'bet' for safekeeping … I'll naturally take out my five million silver and hand it over to the Vice Guild Master as well. But unfortunately, you probably can't take out so much silver … "
The smile on the corners of Xiao He's mouth completely froze, and he said in a low voice, "Kid, are you done yet? Fine, I'll hand over five million silver to the Vice Guild Master right now … Vice Guild Master, I have three million silver in my hand, and I'll borrow the other two million silver from you first. Is that alright? "
With a raise of his hand, a large stack of silver appeared out of thin air, and he passed it over to Ye Lun.
As the genius alchemist of the Xiao Clan, Xiao He was the only person in the younger generation of the Xiao Clan that possessed a Spatial Ring.
Ye Lun's brows slightly twitched, but he didn't say anything in the end. He received the silver from Xiao He and nodded.
"Kid, do you see this? This is my bet, where's yours? "
Xiao He looked at Duan Lingtian with his head held high as he sneered repeatedly. He was waiting to see Duan Lingtian make a fool of himself.
"Laughable! You still say you're a disciple of the Xiao Clan, but you still have to borrow from others to gather a mere five million silver … Tsk tsk. "
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but laugh.
"Cut the crap, where's your bet?"
Xiao He's face sank, and a desire to kill Duan Lingtian suddenly arose within his heart.
This kid is too difficult to deal with!
"Look carefully, this is my bet … Although I'm a nobody, I don't need to borrow from others for a mere five million silver."
Duan Lingtian intentionally extended his hand into his bosom and took out all the silver from his Spatial Ring, then he passed it over to Xiao He. "Vice Guild Master, this is my bet, please help me count it …"
Ye Lun's expression froze as he received Duan Lingtian's silver.
After counting it for a while, he nodded. "Not bad, it's precisely five million silver."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Lun's gaze was incomparably complicated. He faintly realized that all this was a trap set by the violet-clothed youth, and he was just waiting for Xiao He to fall into it …
He'd used Xiao He's pride!
This violet-clothed youth was too terrifying; he'd completely used Xiao He's weakness.
Although he could almost confirm now that this violet-clothed youth ought to be a fish that slipped through the net of the Alchemist Guild's Main Guild, and ought to indeed be a Grade Nine Alchemist …
But he still slightly anticipated the scene of the youth proving himself.
"F * * k! It's really five million silver! Who's this youth? "
"Even Xiao He was unable to produce five million silver in a short amount of time, and had to borrow from the Vice Guild Master … But he withdrew five million silver with a wave of his hand, it's truly unbelievable!"
"Since he's able to produce so many silver and took the initiative to make this bet, could it be that he's really a Grade Nine Alchemist?"
"Things have already come to this, do you think it's possible for him to be so kind as to give money to Xiao He?"
"If he's really a Grade Nine Alchemist, then it's too unbelievable. An 18 year old Grade Nine Alchemist is absolutely a first in our Crimson Sky Kingdom!"
"Looks like we're fortunate enough to witness that sacred moment with our own two eyes."
...
The surrounding crowd of spectators grew larger and larger, and so long as it was someone who entered the Alchemist Guild, they would all gather around.
Some people who didn't know the ins and outs of the matter from the people around them, and they looked at Duan Lingtian and Xiao He with interest, waiting for the most critical moment to arrive …
These two people.
One was the famous genius alchemist of the Crimson Sky Kingdom!
