Chapter 832 Your grandmaster was a gambler with terrible luck when he was young.
"My two friends, you are both very skilled at gambling. What would you like to play next?" Xiao Ye No. 1 tried to remain calm and pushed out a small pile of chips from the mountain of chips in front of him.
"Whatever, I know how to do it all," Long Xiaoyao said smugly. In his youth, he had traveled all over the continent; how could he not know how to gamble?
"We'll follow the dealer; whatever you play, we'll play," Moon said with a smile.
Xiao Ye No. 1 smiled, nodded to the dealer, and chose a mainstream gameplay style on the mainland.
The crystal card quickly landed on the table.
Xiao Ye No. 1 wore a lazy smile, as if to say that he had enough chips to offer and that they could kill him in one fell swoop.
Long Xiaoyao chuckled, feeling sorry for his grand-disciple. Back when the two Holy Dragons dominated the continent, they had wreaked havoc in the underworld.
Although he himself wasn't very good at gambling, the guy sitting across from this kid was Moon.
The one who devised the plan among the two Holy Dragons back then.
However, since Moon returned to Shrek Academy, he hasn't been seen playing anymore.
In the more than one hundred years that followed, Long Xiaoyao rarely saw Mu En away from Shrek Academy for too long. Even when he was on a mission, he would usually come and go in a day.
Moon's gambling skills have been kept secret for nearly a hundred years. My grand-disciple, you are lucky today!
Long Xiaoyao thought to himself with schadenfreude, playing his cards haphazardly.
Mu En glanced at Long Xiaoyao and roughly guessed what his old friend was thinking. He was playing his cards so casually that his teammate ate the card he had just played, giving the dealer an opportunity.
Xiao Ye No. 1 was a little confused. These two who were so fierce just now were fighting amongst themselves? What's going on?
They actually managed to get the right to play their cards, so just you wait and see!
Xiao Ye No. 1 seized the opportunity, giving the opponent no chance to take advantage, and won the game.
"Hey! Are you even good at this? Have you forgotten how to play after all these years of not playing cards?!" Long Xiaoyao's lips twitched violently as he watched Xiao Ye No. 1 happily take all the chips in front of him.
Moon also pushed out the chips in front of him, and with a wave of his left hand, a gold card appeared that said "Exchange Chips".
Two new piles of chips, like small mountains, quickly fell in front of the two men.
"Don't mess things up this time. Your luck is so bad and your card skills are terrible." Mu En gave Long Xiaoyao a disdainful look.
"Tsk." Long Xiaoyao obediently took the cards. Wasn't he just trusting Mu En's strength and putting some pressure on him?
It seems this old man's card skills have really declined significantly!
"My two friends, big shots shouldn't fight amongst themselves, that's a big no-no," Xiao Ye No. 1 said with a smile, though he didn't underestimate the two people in front of him at all.
It was only because that guy in the black robe attacked randomly that he got a chance; otherwise, he would have been the one killed.
Without Long Xiaoyao's interference, Mu En quickly cornered Xiao Ye No. 1 once again.
Xiao Ye No. 1 is discarding cards at a slower and slower pace, sometimes needing to think for a while before putting down his cards.
Two minutes later, Xiao Ye No. 1 watched as Mu En pressed down his last three cards, and decisively put his own cards together on the table.
"This round is over, next round," Xiao Ye No. 1 said straightforwardly.
"Hehe, kid, I won't hold back!"
Long Xiaoyao happily took one of the three small mountains in front of Xiao Ye No. 1, scooped it up with both hands from the pile of chips, and let the chips fall between his fingers.
"Young man, you have two more chances," Mu En said with a smile, pointing to the two small mountains of chips in front of Xiao Ye No. 1.
Xiao Ye narrowed his eyes slightly. These two dared to gamble so big with him, which meant they must have a lot of money. In addition, their gambling skills were slightly better than his. They were definitely not from the Mingdu family.
None of the major families in Mingdu, whether they were family heads or outstanding successors, could outmaneuver Ye Nanxiao, who had transformed into Mu Shiyi.
Most of the royal family members are good-for-nothings, and their card skills are terrible. The remaining two or three are complete novices.
Could these two be powerful figures from some sect in this competition?
If so, then their purpose in approaching you is worth considering.
But the prerequisite is that this bet must be won.
Looks like we need to get some backup.
While the dealer was still shuffling the cards, Xiao Ye No. 1 grabbed three chips and placed them in front of him, muttering to himself.
The two looked at each other, puzzled by Xiao Ye No. 1's perplexing behavior.
"My true form, please possess me!" Little Leaf No. 1 silently chanted in his heart.
A moment later, Xiao Ye No. 1 went offline, and the real main account came online.
Ye Nanxiao glanced at the current situation, quickly reviewed Xiao Ye No. 1's memories, and gestured, "Please, both of you."
"Haha, it's not a foul for you to call for backup when facing two opponents. Come on, let's continue," Moon said with a laugh.
Ye Nanxiao's smile faded slightly, appearing somewhat stiff.
Did the other side see through my mental connection?
impossible?
Even the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm couldn't see through the characteristics of these soul skills. Who are these two people in front of us?
Taking advantage of the opportunity to draw the cards, Ye Nanxiao glanced at the two of them very subtly, and suddenly he noticed something.
Both of them had dragon patterns on their robes.
Dragon-type martial spirits enjoy high popularity on the continent and are worshipped by the vast majority of people.
Everyone believed that dragon-type martial souls were born noble and powerful.
The two people in front of me likely possess dragon-type martial souls.
Why do I feel a sense of familiarity with these black and white dragon-type martial souls?
"Xiao'er, be careful. The cultivation levels of these two are very high. I can't see through them yet. We may need to rely on the power of the Frozen Flower."
The Snow Emperor's voice suddenly rang in Ye Nanxiao's mind.
The frozen flower tied around Ye Nanxiao's neck emitted a faint light, its power merging into Xue Di's body to help her cross the connection.
Ye Nanxiao understood that Xue Di needed time, so he focused all his attention on the card game in front of him.
This hand of cards uses three cards to determine the winner.
If cheating isn't involved, then it all comes down to luck for both sides.
Ye Nanxiao's luck held firm, and he won the match without much pressure.
Seeing his newly acquired mountain of chips fall back into Ye Nanxiao's hands, Long Xiaoyao angrily wanted to ruffle his beard, only to find that he had returned to his youthful state.
"That little brat! He's infuriating! Doesn't he know how to respect his elders?!"
Moon threw the cards in front of him into the discard pile and said, "You're still as lucky as ever, ever since you were little."
This time, Ye Nanxiao understood.
The identities of the two people in front of them suddenly became connected.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Xue'er, don't bother, these two are acquaintances."
"Um?"
Xue Di stopped casting her spell and carefully observed through visual sharing.
"Grandmaster, Elder Mu, why have you two suddenly become younger?" Ye Nanxiao asked helplessly, pulling out a silencing bead from his hand.
Long Xiaoyao chuckled, "Kid, the card table is a battlefield, and I won't hold back!"
"Where did you learn this gambling talk from?" Ye Nanxiao laughed.
"Hehe, Nanxiao, this old man was a gambler when he was young, and a gambler with terrible card skills." Mu En didn't hesitate to expose Long Xiaoyao's secrets.
Upon hearing his past mistakes exposed, Long Xiaoyao could no longer sit still. He slammed his fist on the table and angrily exclaimed, "Old man! You have no martial ethics! How could you make fun of my rare defeat!"
Yes, even in her anger, she didn't forget to defend herself.
Mu En ignored Long Xiaoyao's voice, flipping the two chips in his hand. "Nanxiao, you continue. It's been a long time since I've played."
Ye Nanxiao was caught in a dilemma: to move or not to move, so he had no choice but to shuffle the cards himself.
However, his pocket money was taken over by Long Xiaoyao, and the card duel became between Long Xiaoyao and Mu En.
Ye Nanxiao: Life is tough, time to shuffle the deck and pour tea!
"Look, old man! Even though I've been away from the card game for decades, I'm still invincible!" Long Xiaoyao grabbed the cards that Ye Nanxiao had dealt.
Moon casually picked up the cards, glanced at them, and then threw out a high card.
"Wow! You're going to play big cards right off the bat? You're going to go down with it, aren't you!" Long Xiaoyao retorted, throwing out his own big cards.
Ye Nanxiao sat on the side watching with trepidation. This was hardly a game of cards.
Why is soul power being used to play cards?
Mu En's eyes flickered, and he pulled the cards next to Ye Nanxiao over, dividing them into two piles.
Long Xiaoyao laughed loudly, reached out and grabbed a pile of cards from a distance, and with a wave of his hand, the cards in his hand landed on the table in an orderly fashion, like troops being deployed.
"When it comes to strategy games, this old man has never fallen behind in recent years!"
Moon smiled calmly, and the cards in his hand automatically arranged themselves, just like a battle formation.
Ye Nanxiao exclaimed "Eh?" War chess was a mainstream chess game on the mainland, similar to the Chinese chess he knew. But wasn't this a card game? And these crystal cards could be used as war chess pieces?
Symbols representing chess pieces appeared on the back of the crystal cards, and the two quickly created a makeshift chess set.
The nature of the card game suddenly changed. One by one, crystal cards with engraved symbols fell onto the table. Amidst the surging of two soul energies, Ye Nanxiao vaguely saw soldiers standing on the battlefield.
Soldiers stood ready, their movements a blur of blades as they ran across the battlefield.
Ye Nanxiao looked around and saw neither of the two old rascals. He had been drawn into the game from a god-like perspective as an observer.
"Is he going to give me a lesson?"
Ye Nanxiao found a corner and squatted down. In a battle between two armies, they shouldn't attack the referee, right?
Fortunately, Xiao Ye No. 1 had booked the entire gambling table, and the two old rascals played chess quietly, so they didn't attract attention in the noisy underground world.
Ye Nanxiao watched three rounds, and his master lost all three rounds.
Long Xiaoyao angrily kept touching his chin; his beard was gone, and he could only manage to pull out a few strands.
Mu En smiled and looked at Ye Nanxiao. "Did you understand it?"
Ye Nanxiao nodded blankly. Although he hadn't fully understood it yet, he had memorized the three rounds of combat. He just didn't quite understand Elder Mu's intention in doing so.
"You're no longer a soldier; you're going to become a general. Of course, what I mean is, it's better to be prepared, hahaha."
Ye Nanxiao blinked his dry eyes. Was it really better to be prepared?
