A Shocking Gamble
Shen Tuming had indeed succeeded.
Ye Fei wouldn't care about the others, but he was the one who brought Zhang Huzi in. Now that Zhang Huzi was being humiliated, he couldn't ignore it.
Ye Fei said indifferently, "Shen Tuming, what are you trying to do? Tell me. No matter what it is, I'll accept it!"
"Great. As expected of the loyal Northern Sea Sword Monarch. Unfortunately …"
Shen Tuming smiled. He was clapping just a moment ago, but in the next moment, he said viciously, "Unfortunately, you're the same as these rogue cultivators. You're all lowly people. People like you don't deserve to be a prodigy!"
Boom!
Everyone was shocked.
Only then did everyone realize that Shen Tuming was waiting here not to befriend Ye Fei, but to provoke Ye Fei.
Humiliating Zhang Huzi was also part of Shen Tuming's plan. He knew that Ye Fei was loyal and wouldn't let his friend be humiliated without standing up for him.
This way, no matter what challenge Shen Tuming proposed, Ye Fei wouldn't have a reason to refuse. Because if he refused, Ye Fei wouldn't just lose his reputation.
"As expected of a smiling tiger. Shen Tuming's words immediately put the Northern Sea Sword Monarch in a difficult position." Many warriors were afraid of Shen Tuming.
"Haha, so that's how it is. The Northern Sea Sword Monarch is out of luck. Originally, there were rumors that Shen Tuming would be promoted to prodigy this year. In the end, Ye Fei came out of nowhere and pushed Shen Tuming down. Shen Tuming is obviously trying to snatch the position."
Some of the knowledgeable warriors could roughly guess Shen Tuming's plan.
The warriors of Beiyuan Country were even more energized and started cheering for Shen Tuming. If Shen Tuming could pull Ye Fei down from the prodigy position, it would be a heavy blow not only to Ye Fei, but also to Beiyang Country.
"How about it, Northern Sea Sword Monarch? With so many people watching, wouldn't it be too disappointing if we don't make a bet?"
Shen Tuming didn't disappoint. Seeing that Ye Fei was almost done, the smile on his face suddenly turned cold.
"What do you want to fight?" Ye Fei asked coldly. Only then did he realize how treacherous Shen Tuming was. He actually used Zhang Huzi and the others to force him to accept the challenge.
This person was indeed a smiling tiger!
Ye Fei had no choice but to accept this challenge. He did not expect to use this battle to change the status of rogue martial artists, but he had to let those self-righteous genius martial artists know.
Even the weakest martial artist could not be easily insulted!
"It's very simple. Since we can't fight in Quicksand City, then let's bet on stones. As for the stakes, we'll bet on your position as the chosen one!" Shen Tu Ming revealed a sinister smile. This was the moment he had been waiting for.
All the martial artists present were shocked.
Although they had vaguely guessed this, no one had expected Shen Tuming to be so direct. The moment he opened his mouth, he wanted to snatch Ye Fei's position as the chosen one.
"You've done so much just for the sake of the Sky-Pride position?" Ye Fei was suddenly enraged. Just because of a false reputation, Shen Tuming could freely humiliate others?
These high and mighty genius martial artists were simply too much.
"That's right! Your Heaven's Pride Seat! I've won! You must swear to leave Quicksand City immediately and not enter the Heaven Forsaken Grounds! Of course, your Heaven's Pride Seat shall belong to me as well!" Shen Tuming's smile was extremely radiant, as though he had Ye Fei in his grasp for sure.
He was also confident that as long as he could force Ye Fei to give up his position and lose the opportunity to enter the Heaven Forsaken Land, then no matter how hard Ye Fei worked in the future, he would be left far behind by the other kings who had entered the Heaven Forsaken Land.
At that time, Ye Fei would not be able to become a chosen one again. It would be a problem for him to survive this blow and become a titled warrior, Wu Jun.
On the other hand, he, Shentu Ming, could use this opportunity to trample Ye Fei to death and make him unable to rise again. Furthermore, he could use his fame to rise to the ranks of the geniuses. At that time, Fu Renjie, Lin Tianjiao, and Song Yu would all be left far behind in terms of fame.
After all, he, Shen Tuming, had once trampled on Ye Fei to become a chosen one. Who in the Northern Region could compare with him?
"How about it? Do you dare to accept this bet?" Shen Tuming arrogantly took a step closer to Ye Fei.
"Why wouldn't I dare?!" Ye Fei could not back down, nor did he want to back down. He could lose to anyone, but he did not want to lose to someone as arrogant as Shen Tuming.
"Xiao Cao, are you confident?" Although he agreed readily, Ye Fei was actually a little worried. After all, Shen Tuming had come prepared and he had accepted the challenge hastily.
"Squeak!"
Within the beast mark, Xiao Cao puffed up his cheeks and waved his fists with all his might. He looked as if he wanted to cheer for Ye Fei. Ye Fei was suddenly emboldened.
With Xiao Cao's treasure in his hands, he had nothing to be afraid of.
"If you want to fight, I will fight! If you lose, I will not be bothered to accept your apology. I will take your spatial ring. Brother Zhang, do you have a problem with that? "Ye Fei turned to look at Zhang Huzi.
"I will listen to the King of Swords." Zhang Huzi was very straightforward.
"You want to take all the treasures on me?" Shen Tuming's expression turned ugly. Everyone knew that the most precious thing on a warrior was their spatial ring. Basically, warriors would habitually store their most valuable treasures in their spatial rings.
If he lost, then he, Shen Tuming, one of the Ten Great Kings, would follow in the footsteps of that idiot Song Zhong and be robbed clean by Ye Fei.
"Very well, King of Swords of the North Sea, I, Shen Tuming, accept your bet!" Shen Tuming continued to smile, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Seeing that Ye Fei had agreed to Shen Tuming's bet so rashly, the old man in charge of the stone-cutting suddenly frowned. He was secretly worried for Ye Fei.
The warriors present did not know, but the old man who had been in Qi Zhen Pavilion for many years knew that Shen Tuming was not only an expert in stone-gambling, but also the hidden young master of Qi Zhen Pavilion.
Now, Ye Fei wanted to stone-gamble with Shen Tuming in Qi Zhen Pavilion. No matter how one looked at it, this was a very dangerous thing to do.
But in Qi Zhen Pavilion, the old man had no way of reminding Ye Fei of this matter. Seeing that Ye Fei had taken the bait and agreed to the bet, a cold light flashed in Shen Tuming's eyes. He glanced at the manager of Qi Zhen Pavilion.
The manager strode over and cupped his hands in a seemingly impartial manner. "Since the two young masters want to stone-gamble, then Qi Zhen Pavilion will naturally do its best to help. Men, gather all the top quality raw materials here for the two young masters to choose from."
"Yes, sir!"
A large group of workers immediately gathered the raw materials of Qi Zhen Pavilion. The manager cupped his hands again. "Young masters, who will choose first?"
"Humph, let the one who only knows how to make friends with lowly people choose first." Shen Tuming had an arrogant look on his face. Since Ye Fei had taken the bait, there was no need for him to be polite. After all, the one who would win this time would be him, Shen Tuming. This was not because he was the young master of Qi Zhen Pavilion, but because Shen Tuming was confident in his own abilities.
"Forget it, men do not fight with dogs. Let's wait for a certain dog to choose first, then I will choose," Ye Fei said coldly, his body exuding confidence.
