Wang Teng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Even Cao Jiaojiao couldn't take it anymore. It was too embarrassing.
Wang Teng said in disdain, "Look at how scared you are. If I were Cao Hongtu, I would have thrown you to the wall."
"Pfft!"
The surrounding people burst out in laughter.
They couldn't take it anymore.
Too vicious!
This young man's mouth was simply poisonous.
An Lan laughed and looked at Cao Guan with a weird gaze.
"You!" Cao Guan was stunned for a moment before he reacted. His face turned red and he was fuming.
Cao Jiaojiao's face turned slightly red. She scolded Wang Teng in her heart for being shameless. How could he say such things to her?
Adris's mouth twitched. He felt that Cao Guan was embarrassing him, but he still stood out and said coldly, "Stop talking nonsense. Are you playing or not?"
"Sure, since you want to lose money, I'll play with you." Wang Teng nodded calmly.
"You want me to lose money? You're thinking too much." Adris pointed at an old man beside him and sneered, "This is an advanced ore-finder. With him here, do you think I will lose?"
"Advanced ore-finder!"
An Lan could not help but be taken aback, and then his expression turned ugly.
"You asked an advanced ore-finder for help? That's not fair."
"What's not fair? Who doesn't ask an ore-finder for help? If you have the ability, you can find one yourself. I won't stop you." Adris said.
"That's right. If you have the ability, you can find one too." Cao Guan was secretly happy. It was as if he could already see Wang Teng losing everything.
He hated Wang Teng to the extreme. He was humiliated time and time again. Since he couldn't get back his face, he could only rely on Adris.
Cao Jiaojiao shook her head and looked at the inconspicuous old man in surprise.
She didn't expect him to be an advanced ore-finder!
With an advanced ore-finder, Wang Teng had no chance of winning.
Wang Teng didn't even look at the advanced ore-finder and said impatiently, "Are you playing or not? If so, lead the way. If not, I'm leaving."
"Young man, you are very confident." The senior prospector chuckled.
"Okay, come with me." Adriss was also afraid that Wang Teng would run away, so he stopped talking nonsense and led the way.
Wang Teng still didn't look at the advanced-stage mine explorer. He just followed behind Adriss.
An Lan immediately caught up and asked, "Wang Teng, that's a high-level Ore Seeker. Are you confident? If you can't, we can just retreat. It's not embarrassing."
"What's wrong? Are you scared?" Wang Teng smiled faintly.
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm just afraid that you'll lose your pants." An Lanfeng was speechless.
"Don't worry. Isn't he just an Advanced Prospector? When the time comes, I'll let him know that there is always someone better than him," Wang Teng said calmly.
An Lan looked at him suspiciously. Could it be that Wang Teng still had some trump cards?
"Wang Teng, do you know how to search for ores?" Yuan Gungun's voice suddenly rang in Wang Teng's mind. It had seen Wang Teng act like this too many times. Every time, he would do something unexpected in the most unlikely of circumstances. It couldn't help but wonder if Wang Teng had mastered the art of searching for ores.
"It's a secret," Wang Teng said.
"Tsk, if you don't want to say it, then forget it." Yuan Gungun didn't say anything else. Basically, every time he said something like this, it meant that Wang Teng was confident enough that it didn't need to worry about anything.
Soon, they arrived at the gambling den. There were many gambling dens set up by the major powers gathered here. There was not just one, but dozens of them.
The profits involved in gambling were unimaginable. Without a certain amount of power and background, no one dared to set up a gambling den. If they weren't careful, they would be wiped out completely.
And because of the powerful forces behind these gambling dens, even if there was no lack of strong people who came to gamble, they still did things according to the rules.
Adriss stopped, pointed around, and said, "You can choose any of these gambling dens. Otherwise, you'll say that I'm bullying you because you're new."
Wang Teng looked around. He didn't recognize any of them.
An Lan signaled with his eyes and transmitted his voice, "Let's choose this Gathering Wealth Gambling Den. This is a branch set up in Imperial City by a big force in the universe that controls many mines. I don't think they'll dare to cause trouble."
"Gathering Wealth?!" Wang Teng looked at this uncouth name and couldn't help but twitch his mouth. He transmitted his voice, "This is a branch of a big force in the universe? It's not some small gambling den? Are you serious? "
An Lan coughed and said, "Gathering Wealth, gathering wealth. They opened gambling dens to make money. Although it's simple and uncouth, the meaning is straightforward. There's nothing wrong with it."
"Why not call it Wang Cai?" Wang Teng said faintly.
"…" An Lan was speechless.
Do you think it's a dog?!
Wang Teng stroked his chin and said, "Why don't we cooperate and open one in the future? We'll call it Wang Cai."
"… You're really a f * cking genius."
An Lan didn't say this out loud. He just complained in his heart.
"Let's call it Gathering Wealth," Wang Teng said to Adriss.
"Okay."
Adriss led the way into the Gathering Wealth Gambling Den.
These gambling dens looked like storefronts from the outside, but in reality, they all had large courtyards behind them. Large amounts of ores were piled up in the courtyards.
"Please wait a moment. You'll need proof to enter the backyard." A clerk stopped them with a smile.
These gambling dens were very strict. It wasn't that they looked down on anyone, but without a certain amount of wealth, they wouldn't be able to afford anything even if they went in. It was a pure waste of time.
Adriss was familiar with the process. He directly showed his identity.
The clerk saw that he was from the Pyrax family and didn't need proof of wealth. He directly let them in.
When it came to Wang Teng's side …
Wang Teng glanced at An Lan and found that he was also looking at him.
"Why are you looking at me? Prove it for him," Wang Teng said.
"Me?" An Lan pointed at his own nose and seemed a little surprised. Wang Teng was already so rich as a Master of Three Daos. Did he still need him to prove it?
"I don't have money. Of course you have to do it," Wang Teng said matter-of-factly.
The clerk still had a smile on his face and waited quietly.
Adriss, Cao Guan, and the others looked at him with disdain. "You dare to bet with me without money?"
"Don't worry. I won't be the one to lose in the end anyway. Why would I need money?" Wang Teng said.
"…"
Adriss and the others were all furious. They were angered by Wang Teng's casual words.
"Then I'll wait and see how you beat me. But you should think of a way to get in first," Adriss sneered.
"You don't have to worry about that. It's our business whether we can get in or not," Wang Teng said.
An Lan had no choice but to pay a deposit of 200 million before he was allowed to enter.
The so-called proof of funds was just a deposit that would be returned when they came out.
100 million per person. Wang Teng's money was paid by An Lan.
"Customers, please come in." The clerk gestured and no longer stopped them.
Cao Jiaojiao, Cao Guan, and the others also paid a deposit before they walked into the backyard.
The backyard of the Gathering Wealth Gambling Mine was surprisingly large and was divided into different areas. There seemed to be a difference in grade.
All kinds of ores were piled up in different corners of the yard. They were of different sizes. The big ones weighed tens of thousands of kilograms while the small ones were only the size of a fist.
"There's no need to look at the rest. We'll go straight to the A-grade area. There are at least hundreds of millions of ores there," Adriss said.
"Up to you." Wang Teng nodded.
Within the yard, there were beautiful clerks in charge of receiving customers and explaining. There were also mining masters helping to clear the ores. There were even mining masters. They were in charge here and had high statuses. They rarely came out.
Most of the guests here were either people of high status or people with great strength and wealth.
Wang Teng glanced around and immediately saw many universe level and domain lord level warriors. There were even a few unfathomable beings that seemed to be sector lords.
A mere gambling mine's backyard actually had so many warriors. It was unbelievable.
No wonder the gambling mine had a threshold. If any normal person could enter and offend these warriors, it would be the gambling mine losing face.
It was obvious that this Gathering Wealth Gambling Mine was a high-end business.
Most of these warriors were followed by mining masters. They would occasionally ask for the mining masters' opinions before buying the ores.
As for how Wang Teng discovered them, it was because of the attribute bubbles that dropped beside them.
Wang Teng didn't hesitate and picked them up one by one.
[Ore Locating Skill * 300]
[Ore Searching Skill * 500]
Mining Technique * 450
… …
"The levels of the mining masters here are obviously much higher than the ones outside. They drop more attribute bubbles." Wang Teng muttered to himself.
In just a short moment, he had picked up thousands of points of [Ore Finding] attributes, and his Ore Finding Master level had also risen all the way, from Intermediate to Advanced in just a moment's time.
Even after advanced, as he picked up more and more attribute bubbles, Wang Teng actually broke through to master level.
In his mind, countless knowledge, experiences, and other understandings regarding the Ore Seeking Technique appeared. They were integrated into his memory, and he mastered them all.
In just a short while, Wang Teng had truly become a mining master.
[Prospector]:
200/10000 (Master)
"It doesn't seem that hard." Wang Teng muttered to himself.
However, the mining master level was indeed quite high. Master level required 10,000 points. If he reached the grandmaster level, wouldn't he need tens of thousands of points?
Fortunately, mining master attributes were easier to obtain compared to alchemists and blacksmiths. It didn't take much effort, so Wang Teng didn't care about it.
After Wang Teng became a mining master, he began to itch to test his skills again. Previously, he was only an intermediate mining master, but he could see that there was red star copper hidden in the stepping stone. Now that he had reached the master level, what kind of attainments and abilities would he have?
Wasn't Adriss, that Mine Explorer, a high-level one? Just now, he looked so arrogant.
It was time to teach him a lesson.
Not long after, Adris and the others had chosen a piece of ore that weighed more than 10,000 kilograms under the guidance of the high-level mining master.
"We've already chosen. Why, haven't you started yet? The ore here isn't that easy to choose. If you can't see it, just admit defeat. When I cut out this piece, you'll pay the price, "Adris said calmly.
