The girl in purple turned around and looked at Linlong. "You? Who are you? "
Looking at this arrogant young man, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
"Second Miss Su, he is Linlong of the Lin family," someone behind her said.
"Oh, it's you." The girl in purple suddenly realized who Linlong was. If it was half a month ago, she wouldn't have known who Linlong was. However, it was different now.
This was because Linlong's name and his arrogance had spread throughout the entire Chuxi Town in the past few days.
After all, he defeated and seriously injured his brother in his own family, and then destroyed the other party's plot. In the process, he was still very arrogant. It was impossible for such a person to not be heard of by the people of Chuxi Town.
The girl in purple looked at Linlong curiously. She really couldn't understand what gave Linlong such confidence. She had heard of Linlong's strength. He was only at the peak of the seventh level of Martial Warrior. He had never been to the rune dojo and was not an alchemist. How could such a person compete with her, who had reached the peak of the eighth level of Martial Warrior, in runes?
So, she found it very funny. In order to make sure she didn't hear wrong, she had to ask again, "Excuse me, are you speaking?"
"Of course it's me, Second Miss Su." Linlong smiled slightly and then said something that surprised everyone again. "I want to bet with you on runes. I wonder if you dare?"
"Why not?" Linlong's seemingly boastful words made the girl in purple a little angry. She stared at Linlong and said, "I'm not interested if the stakes are too small."
"Okay, I'll bet two Profound Qi Pills on the jade on your neck," Linlong said.
His words stunned the people around him. Usually, the stakes were gold and silver. The highest was a pill like the Profound Qi Pill. They had never seen someone bet on the other party's jewelry.
The girl in purple was also surprised, but she said without thinking, "No."
This jade was left to her by her grandmother. Although it didn't have any function, she didn't want to use it as a bet even though she didn't think she would lose.
"That's a pity. You won't have the chance to lose to me." Linlong shook his head.
"Hmph, big words. But why should I bet with jade? Can't I use the Profound Qi Pill? The purple-clothed girl snorted coldly. "Two bets, two bets."
"Profound Qi Pills? I have plenty of them. I'm not interested in them." Linlong shook his head.
What do you mean by Xuan Qi Pills? Do you think Xuan Qi Pills are cabbages in the market? Do you think you can get as many as you want?
When they heard Lin Long, everyone present wanted to give Lin Long a good beating. As far as they were concerned, Lin Long was boasting without limits.
Of course, only Zhang Zhi and Little Butterfly didn't think so, because the most powerful alchemist in Black Wind City had already agreed to refine Profound Qi Pills for Linlong for free. Under such circumstances, it could be said that Linlong could have as many as he wanted.
"Okay, then I will use this piece of jade to bet with you." The purple-clothed young lady was furious.
She had already made up her mind. After she won this round, she would continue gambling until she won all the Xuan Qi Pills on Linlong. At that time, she would see if Linlong would still have the face to ask for as many Xuan Qi Pills as he had.
Of course, most importantly, she did not think that she would lose.
"Alright, since Second Miss Su has agreed, let's start the bet." As he spoke, Linlong stood up from his seat and walked towards the square table where the purple-clothed young lady was.
His calm appearance and the disdainful look in his eyes made the surrounding youths want to poke a few holes in his body. They really did not know what gave Linlong such strong confidence.
"Second Miss Su, please." After sitting opposite the purple-clothed young lady, Linlong stretched out his hand and said politely.
"Hmph." The purple-clothed young lady did not fall for his trick. After a cold snort, she focused her attention on the sand table.
The others were the same. Although they felt that Linlong was simply overestimating himself, the way the sand table's runes dueled still made them pay 120% of their attention.
Everyone looked nervous. Only Linlong was still relaxed as he sat in his chair, as if this battle had nothing to do with him.
Idiot. After secretly mocking him, the purple-clothed young lady began to mobilize the divine sense in her body and formed a hand seal.
Could it be that Linlong could not activate the runes at all? Was he doing this just to attract the attention of Second Miss Su? At this moment, such a thought even emerged in the minds of the surrounding people.
At this moment, the sand at the bottom of the sand table near the purple-clothed young lady suddenly bulged slightly. After a few breaths, a shining golden rune emerged from the bottom of the sand table.
This rune was an inch long and an inch wide, and the constantly flashing golden light made it look extremely mysterious.
Looking at this rune of hers, the purple-clothed young lady could not help but look at Linlong proudly.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to mock Linlong, a blue rune that was no different in size from the golden rune suddenly appeared on the opposite side of the sand table.
Everyone was stunned by this scene.
This was because they did not see Linlong make any hand seals at all. Could it be that the runes on the sand table could be activated without any hand seals?
They could not help but have such a thought that they had never thought of before.
Even the owner of the Runes Battle Hall, a middle-aged man in his forties, widened his eyes in disbelief.
After a long while, the purple-clothed young lady stammered, "You … How did you get this rune?"
At the same time, everyone's eyes were focused on Linlong. They were looking forward to hearing the answer from Linlong.
"Practice makes perfect. When you're as familiar as you can be with the runes on the sand table, you'll naturally be able to summon them at will," Linlong said.
This sentence should have been very easy to understand, but it sounded very mysterious to everyone's ears. For a moment, everyone was racking their brains to think about Linlong's words, but they could not come up with anything.
How could they know that the reason why Linlong could easily find the rune was because he was familiar with the sand table runes as a powerful runemaster in his previous life? He could draw out any structure of the sand table runes in his mind with his eyes closed.
Sand table runes were tools that runemasters with a certain level of strength used special methods to construct runes and hide them in the sand table to practice controlling runes.
To all those who practiced controlling runes, it was just a game. However, it was not easy to play this game well. It required proficient skills and a strong divine will.
Of course, this was not difficult for Linlong at all.
It could be said that in terms of understanding and mastery of sand table runes, he was a scholar, while the young men and women in front of him were just fledglings who had just entered school.
Because of this, coupled with his strong divine will, he could activate the runes hidden in the sand table without anyone noticing.
After a few breaths, Linlong looked at the similarly dazed young lady in purple and could not help but say, "Second Miss Su, if you don't make a move, the runes will collapse. Are you going to admit defeat?"
"Ah … Of course not!" The young lady in purple quickly replied after regaining her senses.
Playing tricks. She could not help but curse in her heart. In her opinion, Linlong must have another method, just like her.
As for his words, he was simply bluffing.
"Alright, let me teach a lesson to an arrogant fellow like you." Feeling that she had lost her composure because of Linlong, she gritted her teeth and said hatefully.
