"What the f * ck! My spiritual stones! "
A howl that sounded like a pig being slaughtered resounded throughout the entire casino.
The fat man struggled to stand up from the ground. His small eyes were wide open and full of anger. Especially when he saw that his spiritual stone ticket had been absorbed and that behind Ling Xian's name, there were two million spiritual stones, he became even more angry.
Then, the entire gambling house began to scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"What the f * ck! What the f * ck! My spiritual stones! "
"That's the two million spiritual stones I got from selling my ancestral land!"
"I don't want to live anymore! That's all I have!"
The fat man screamed his lungs out. Both of his hands slammed onto the round board as tears and snot rolled down his face. He was full of anger.
Initially, he planned to go bankrupt and bet everything he had on Le Wu Ya in hopes of making a fortune. Who would've thought that his feet would shake and he would place all his money on Ling Xian. Why wouldn't he be angry?
What made him even more tearless was that he had never heard of Ling Xian's name!
On the round board, there was no introduction of him and no spiritual stones were placed on him. What did this mean?
It meant nobody had high hopes for Ling Xian. Yet at this moment, he mistakenly placed two million spiritual stones on Ling Xian. This made him extremely angry!
His screams of pain attracted everyone's attention.
After seeing the two million spiritual stones behind Ling Xian's name, they all understood what happened. Then, they all chimed in, their voices full of laughter.
"Haha, he placed all his money on this person. No wonder the fat man is so angry."
"This is so interesting. This Ling Xian didn't even have a single spiritual stone. I cannot believe he gained two million now."
"This fat man sure is unlucky. I don't think he wanted to bet on Ling Xian."
A man laughed, "Fat man, tell me, who did you want to bet on?"
"That goes without saying. Of course it's Le Wu Ya, the number one on the Heaven's Favorite Monument. "
The fat man wanted to cry but no tears came out, "But I placed all my money on this Ling Xian. Have any of you heard of this person?"
Everyone slowly shook their heads when they heard this, and they indicated that they'd never heard of this name.
This was normal. Though Ling Xian did a few great things, they were either limited to the East Domain or he didn't leave his name behind.
Therefore, very few people knew of him. Coincidentally, no one here had ever heard of him.
"Holy sh * t! My spirit stones have gone down the drain just like that! "
Seeing that everyone was shaking their heads, the fatty became more and more indignant. He felt that the two million spirit stones he had exchanged for would be like a stone sinking into the ocean. It wouldn't even make a ripple.
"Haha, don't be so pessimistic. Who knows, maybe this Ling Xian will win first place!"
A man laughed loudly. It was obvious that he was mocking them.
Hearing this obvious irony, everyone laughed out loud.
What kind of joke was this?
Though Ling Xian appeared on the disk, he didn't even have an introduction. How could he become the world's number one?
Don't joke around, that's impossible!
At least, that was what everyone thought.
"Holy sh * t! This is all I have! "
The fatty wanted to cry but no tears came out. His beady eyes were full of anger and he wanted to smash this disk. To put it more accurately, he wanted to erase Ling Xian's name.
But, no matter what, he couldn't do it.
The casino had a rule. Once you place your bets, you cannot back out. In other words, he was powerless and could only watch as his two million spiritual stones went down the drain.
"Two million spiritual stones. Let me see Ling Xian's odds."
A man looked at Ling Xian's name and laughed, "It's one to 100. Fatty, if he wins first place, then you will earn a lot. You will earn 100 times more!"
"Bullsh * t!"
The fatty was full of anger, "You think I don't know? The higher the odds, the more hopeless this person is. This means that he is the most hopeless out of the two hundred or so people! "
Hearing this, everyone laughed and chimed in.
"Who knows. Maybe he is being low key and will win first place and shock the world!"
"Haha, if it's up to me, let's bet on him. Le Wu Xia's odds are only one to two. Even if he wins, you will only be able to double your bet. If he wins, you will earn 200 million spiritual stones! "
"You'd better hurry up and pray that he'll win in the end. Although, that's impossible. Haha."
Everyone chimed in. They didn't believe Ling Xian could win first place, but they also found the fatty's misfortune funny.
This made the fatty even more angry. But he also understood that there was no turning back. He could only accept his fate.
"Aye, so unlucky. I slipped."
The fat man sighed deeply and glared at Ling Xian's name. Then, he turned around and left.
"Yours Truly's sorrow is truly like a river flowing against the current!"
…..
The Palace of Heaven's Favorites was located at the extreme north of the central plains. It was a palace that was floating in midair. It looked majestic and was flowing with energy.
Below the palace, countless silhouettes gathered. It was crowded and extremely lively.
Today was the day the Palace of Heaven's Favorites opens.
All gazes were fixated on the grand palace and were full of heat. The participants, in particular, were full of anticipation.
After waiting for half an hour, the palace's door suddenly opened. Then, golden light poured down and engulfed everything within a hundred miles.
"The Palace of Heaven's Favorites opens. Anyone who is above the original level and younger than 100 years old can enter!"
A loud voice arose. Like thunder, it reverberated throughout the world.
Three white-clothed old men walked out together. They were as heavy and heavy as mountains, emitting a terrifying aura.
After that, the crowd below boiled over. Immediately, silhouettes pierced through the sky and headed towards the palace's door at an extreme speed.
At this, the three elders merely glanced at them before retracting their gaze.
It was obvious that these people had the right to enter the Palace of Heaven's Favorites.
There were also quite a few people who wanted to take advantage of the situation and muddle their way through. Unfortunately, those people had just flown in front of the old man when they were sent flying with a slap.
This chilled everyone's heart. They didn't think the three elders would have such sharp eyes and terrifying capabilities.
Just like that, everyone who tried to sneak in disappeared. Only the Heaven's Favorites who had the right to enter flew into the Palace of Heaven's Favorites.
After some time, everyone who wanted to enter had already entered. The area below became much emptier.
At this, the leading elder nodded softly and said in a bright voice, "Is there anyone else who wants to enter?"
At this, the entire place was silenced. Nobody answered.
The opening of the Palace of Heaven's Favorites was a big event. Everyone arrived early to wait. Who dared to be late? Therefore, all the participating Heaven's Favorites had already entered.
"Very well, since nobody is answering, then close the door."
The elder stroke his beard and turned around to close the door.
However, right at this moment, a clear laughter that was slightly apologetic and helpless slowly came from afar.
"Sorry, I am late. Please make an exception."
