Wang Teng always felt that this was a rare item so he was surprised that Chen Shu, who was an advanced stage mining engineer, was able to find it.
It looked like he did have some skills.
This makes things harder.
If there was only one ore with spiritual items inside, he wouldn't have anything to bet.
Damn it!
He dug a hole for himself to fell into.
The other party was so luck!
Wang Teng couldn't do anything now. He activated his Eyes of Essence and glanced around him.
"You won't be able to turn the tides this time. Not only will I recover what I lose, but I'll also earn more!" Chen Shu sneered when he saw how quiet Wang Teng was.
Wang Teng ignored him. He continued scanning the ores.
Ores with spiritual items inside were hard to find. Its was rare even in a big gambing den like the Ju Cai Rock Gamble.
An Lan wasn't an easy person to bully so he refuted instantly.
"Why are you so impatient? We haven't chosen our ore. Be careful or you might lose like the previous time after acting all arrogant at the start."
"Hmph, when the ore is cut, you won't be so conceited," Chen Shu smirked.
"Huh?"
Wang Teng suddenly gasped softly. There was an almost unnoticeable tinge of happiness in his eyes.
I found it! It's here!
I'm so glad I found it. I almost miss it.
Wang Teng lamented in his heart.
He didn't ask An Lan to pay this time. He stood up and wlaked to a corner. After digging through a pile of ores, he finally found one the size of a goose egg.
"How much is this?" Wang Teng turned and asked the owner.
"Pfft!" Chen Shu burst out laughing. "Are you kidding? That's the lowest grade leftover bit. This ore must be less than ten thousand GQC. Are you using that to bet with me?"
"Wang Teng, are you betting which ore is smaller?" Andrais was speechless.
An Lan was flustered too.
Wang Teng got stranger with each move. The first ore was still a few thousand kilograms but this was just a less than 10 kilograms?
"How much is this?" Wang Teng ignored them and asked the owner again.
"Erm, you can give me 8000." The owner finally came up with a price. He stared at Wang Teng strangely.
Wang Teng paid without any hesitation and completed the transaction.
"Cut it. I chose this piece," Wang Teng said to Chen Shu. He went back to his seat while playing with the ore in his hand.
"Alright, since you have a death wish, I'll fulfil it." Andrais signaled to Chen Shu.
Chen Shu was confident. He gave the ore he chose to the master cutter and asked for him help to cut the ore.
"Wait." Wang Teng suddenly opened his mouth at this moment.
"What? Are you afraid and want to back out?" Andrais sneered. "It's too late."
"Hmph, you're thinking too much." Wang Teng scoffed, "Do you dare to increase the bet?"
"Increase the bet?!" Andrais squinted. He stared at Wang Teng, wondering what he had up his sleeve.
"That's right. Let's add another bet on top of our current one," Wang Teng said. "The person who lose will have to give the other party the content of the ore."
Andrais' gaze flickered.
Why did he suddenly come up with this request?
Did he notice something?
Where did he get his confidence from? Why is he placing this bet?
Many thoughts flashed through Andrais' mind. He couldn't understand what Wang Teng was thinking.
"I won't continue if you don't dare. A small bet is no fun," Wang Teng said indifferently.
Huh? Could it be that he's scared and want to use this method to anger me so that he can run away? This thought popped up in Andrais' mind.
In the end, he said in a low voice, "Alright, since you want to play, I'll accompany you."
"Words means nothing. Let's sign a spiritual contract," Wang Teng said.
Andrais hesitated again. Wang Teng didn't look like he was trying to run away. Instead, he seemed to be setting up a trap for him.
But, he had already agreed. He couldn't take back his words instantly. He had his ego.
"Come, bring the spiritual contract," Andrais shouted.
The owner took out a spiritual contract and both parties wrote down their rules and signed their names.
The contract took effect immediately.
More and mor people crowded around them as their bets grew larder. Even the manager of the den and the mining engineers were alerted.
Wang Teng smiled. He sat on his seat nonchalently and savored his tea quietly.
The master cutter started dissecting the ore.
Buzzzzz
The sound of the cutter echoed in the air.
The ore was small so the master peeled off the outer layer very quickly.
There was an entire piece of green wood element energy stone inside.
The moment the ore was cut, the dazzling green glow blossomed and reflected gently on everyone's faces.
"What a thick wood Force. This is at least an eight-level energy stone!"
"It's a pity that it's so small."
"It's still expensive. No wonder they chose this ore."
…
"Oh no, Wang Tengm we're going to lose," An Lan wailed.
Chen Shu gave a look of contempt when he heard their discussion. He sniggered and said, "The real value is not in the energy stone, It's what's within it."
"Within it!" Everyone was stunned.
"Oh my, is that a spiritual herb I see?"
