"That's right, we're just playing around. Let's learn from each other."
The few men subconsciously explained. Facing the young girl, all of them had a face full of flattery and flattery.
"Is that so?"
Shen Yun glanced at them coldly and snorted in disdain. "Alright, I'm here. How are we going to learn from each other? Is it still a hundred martial crystals per round?"
Seeing the cold look on the young lady's face, the corners of the men's mouths twitched. They smiled awkwardly with different expressions on their faces.
Shen Yun was beautiful. Breathtakingly beautiful. However, they were arrogant!In their own empire, in their own city, they were the proud sons of heaven. When had they ever been mocked like this?
"Hehe!Since Miss Shen Yun wants to gamble, then I'll play along with you. As for the stakes, I think we need to change it. "
A fair-skinned man walked up and said with a smile.
"Gambling? That's too vulgar. Let's bet on something new. Hehe!"
Another man also stood up with a sinister smile on his face. His eyes squinted slightly, revealing a lustful light.
"Hehe!"
The few of them laughed and glanced at Shen Yun with evil intentions.
"Hmph!"
Shen Yun's pretty face darkened again. She snorted and said disdainfully, "You can't even afford a hundred martial crystals. It seems like you're really poor!"
As soon as these words came out, the smiles on their faces froze. Such a brilliant retort instantly caused the crowd to burst into cheers.
"Hmph!I'll go with you! "
A man stepped forward with a slightly gloomy face.
In their hearts, their pride and reputation were the most important. Everything else was built on that.
"Hmph!"
Shen Yun glanced at him and the corner of her mouth curled up into a disdainful smile. "Within the limit of ten million gold coins, each of us will choose a raw stone. Whoever has the highest value will be the winner!"
In terms of the art of looking at stones, she only admired one person. That was her great-grandfather, the Earth Level Master of Looking at Stones, Shen Ping!
"Alright!"
The man immediately agreed.
Following which, the two of them started to choose their ores. Both of their eyes were shining brightly, emitting a dazzling radiance. It was so bright that one could not look at them directly.
About an hour later, both of them picked out an uncut stone.
That man came from the Regretful Cloud Empire. Whether it was his Eye Technique or his experience with the Phase Stone, he was flawless. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was already an Earth Grade Master.
Now, he had chosen a piece of raw material worth over eight million four hundred thousand gold coins. It was shaped like a mountain, with a height of one meter and a width of half a meter. The entire raw material was surrounded by visible Qi, which indicated that it was not an ordinary material at first glance.
After all, this was an ore worth eight million Martial Crystals, which was worth more than ten Martial Crystals!
"Not bad, Brother Xi's selection of stones is indeed skillful!"
A few men surrounded him. Their eyes lit up as they scanned him carefully. After a while, all of them cupped their hands at him with smiles on their faces.
Obviously, the stock of this raw material had definitely exceeded its original price.
"Haha!"
The man was very pleased with himself. He kept cupping his hands at them, and his face was full of arrogance.
However, Shen Yun's choice seemed a little shabby compared to his. It was only worth two million seven hundred thousand gold coins. It was shaped like a cedar tree and looked like a bonsai. It was only about half a meter tall. Although it looked extraordinary, the Spiritual Qi surrounding it was far inferior to that of the man with the surname Xi.
Between eight million and two million, it was obvious which was more valuable.
"Very good, haha!"
Glancing at the price, the man's mouth twitched. He squeezed his face into a hideous smile.
To them, although a hundred Martial Crystals was a lot, it was nothing compared to their status and the dignity of their clans. And now, what they had lost was not just a hundred Martial Crystals, but the strength of their clans, or even the empire!
Many pairs of eyes scanned the two uncut stones. Out of trust in Shen Yun's ability, no one said a word. However, the frown on their faces revealed their worries.
Shen Yun could not lose. If she lost, it would mean that the Golden Empire had lost!
"Elder Yu, you can start now."
Shen Yun ignored him and called out to Yu Xiao.
"Okay."
Yu Xiao furrowed his brows as he walked over. With a single grab, the piece of ore belonging to the man surnamed Xi appeared in his hand.
"Sha Sha!"
A faint layer of Martial Energy burst out and covered the entire uncut stone. In an instant, the soil on the uncut stone was peeled off layer by layer.
After a while, a sparkling corner of the uncut stone was revealed.
It was a piece of Martial Crystal!
After peeling it off, Yu Xiao continued to cut the uncut stone.
Then, pieces of Martial Crystals were peeled off one after another. There were already seven pieces of Martial Crystals floating in the air. The one-meter tall uncut stone was now the size of a washbasin.
This was the core of the uncut stone, and it was also the most important part. There might be nothing inside. Maybe there was only a piece of Martial Crystal, or maybe there was a piece of Spiritual Iron!
This was the standard of an Xiangshi Master!
This was because a large piece of uncut stone would definitely contain Martial Crystals. The vibrations emitted by the Martial Crystals would mess up one's judgment. One would have to rely on his Eye Sorcery and experience to determine the authenticity of the Martial Crystals.
At this crucial moment, the man was a little nervous.
After all, although the Eye Sorcery could see through the truth, it could not really determine what was inside. Even a Heaven-grade Xiangshi Master was the same.
No one could be a hundred percent sure!
Hence, the competition of Xiangshi Masters relied on three main factors: Eye Sorcery, experience, and most importantly, luck!
"Sha Sha!"
The soil was peeled off layer by layer, and the uncut stone was getting smaller and smaller. Heavy breathing could be heard from the crowd.
"Little Ball, is there anything inside?"
Feng Hao was standing in a corner, his purple eyes staring at the uncut stone for a long time. The situation inside the uncut stone was blurry, and he could not see it clearly. He could only ask the little fellow in his arms.
"Squeak!"
The little ball lay at his collar, wrinkled its pink nose, shook its head, and burrowed back in.
"Hehe!Interesting. "
Seeing Little Ball shake its head, a strange smile appeared on Feng Hao's face. He looked at the man with a faint smile.
Little Ball's judgment was unquestionable. Although it might not be able to determine the grade of the Spiritual Iron in the uncut stone, it was definitely 100% accurate.
