"Boy, did you hear what the vice-president said? If you cannot prove your identity as a 'ninth-grade alchemist', the Alchemist Guild will take away the alchemist badge you are wearing."
Xiao He looked at Duan Lingtian, his eyes full of amusement.
What a joke!
No matter what, he would not believe that such a little kid could be a ninth-grade alchemist...
Eyes fell on Duan Lingtian one after another.
More people were waiting to see Duan Lingtian make a fool of himself.
"You don't believe that I am a ninth-grade alchemist?"
Duan Lingtian looked around and asked calmly.
Although no one responded, everyone's questioning eyes said everything...
"Is your name 'Xiao He'?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Xiao He again, a cunning glint flashed across his eyes, but Xiao He didn't notice it.
"Yes, I am Xiao He."
Xiao He raised his head, extremely arrogant, and did not take Duan Lingtian seriously at all.
"If I make a bet with you, do you dare?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Hmph! I'm not interested in betting with you."
Xiao He sneered. Although he didn't know what kind of medicine the other party was selling, he could become a "ninth-grade alchemist" at the age of twenty, so he couldn't be a fool.
"Haha... A twenty-year-old ninth-grade alchemist, the most talented alchemist of the younger generation in the Chixiao Kingdom? He deserves his reputation in vain!"
Duan Lingtian chuckled, with a calm expression on his face, but anyone could tell that Duan Lingtian was mocking Xiao He for being "cowardly".
"Boy, don't change the subject... Didn't you listen to what the vice-president said? If you can't prove that you are an alchemist, you must hand over your alchemist badge!"
Xiao He looked at Duan Lingtian with a look like 'Stop pretending, I've seen through you a long time ago'.
"When did I change the subject? The bet I made with you was to comply with the request of the Vice President. What I want to bet with you is that if I can prove that I am a ninth-grade alchemist, you will lose five hundred to me.
Ten thousand taels of silver. On the contrary, if I can't prove it now, then I will lose you five million taels of silver... How dare you?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Xiao He calmly.
Five million taels of silver?
Wow!
The bet that Duan Lingtian mentioned can be said to have stirred up thousands of waves with one stone...
The onlookers were all in an uproar!
Even the vice-president of the Alchemist Association, 'Ye Lun', looked at Duan Lingtian with great interest...
Is he really a ninth-grade alchemist?
However, if he is really a ninth-grade alchemist and has obtained the badge of the Alchemist Guild through certification, why doesn't the Alchemist Guild where he registered report this matter to the 'General Assembly'?
Ye Lun has too many doubts in his heart...
"Five million taels of silver?"
Xiao He was stunned.
Five million taels of silver was nothing in his eyes.
If he wants it, the Xiao family will definitely satisfy him...
After all, he is a 'genius alchemist' trained by the Xiao family, and sooner or later he will become a 'seventh grade alchemist'.
However, it has only been more than a year since he became a ninth-grade alchemist. Even if he is refining elixirs, he still accepts tasks in the Alchemist Guild and earns 'points' from the Alchemist Guild.
Now, he only has more than three million taels of silver given by his family.
"Why, don't you dare?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Xiao He and laughed, "So, you also think that I should be a ninth-grade alchemist... Now, should you take back your previous doubts about me and admit that I am a ninth-grade alchemist? At the same time,
You must admit that I am a more talented alchemist than you! You, the most talented alchemist of the younger generation in Chixiao Kingdom, are just in vain!"
Ever since Xiao He appeared, Duan Lingtian could tell what kind of person he was...
Xiao He is proud and arrogant.
And now he took advantage of this and forced Xiao He to accept his bet in full view of the public.
He believed that with Xiao He's proud personality, he would never admit that he did not dare.
"Haha... what a bullshit genius alchemist, he's just a coward!"
Duan Lingtian continued to add fuel to the fire, dismantling the last line of defense in Xiao He's heart...
Ye Lun took a deep look at Duan Lingtian.
Is this boy in purple clothes really confident?
"Okay, I promise you! But can you come up with five million taels of silver?"
Xiao He finally agreed and looked at Duan Lingtian with a sarcastic smile.
In his opinion, what this young man said just now must be deliberately trying to embarrass him...
Now, he will expose the other party's lies!
Can you get five million taels of silver?
For a moment, the eyes of the crowd fell on Duan Lingtian.
They were also frightened by the bet Duan Lingtian mentioned just now...
Five million taels of silver is something that not everyone can easily come up with!
Even for a ninth-grade alchemist, it would take at least decades to earn so much money...
"Are you sure you agree?"
When Duan Lingtian heard Xiao He's words, he was not in a hurry to take out the banknotes. He wanted Xiao He to completely fall into his trap, so that Xiao He could no longer regret it.
"Why, are you scared?"
Seeing Duan Lingtian like this, Xiao He naturally thought that Duan Lingtian had a guilty conscience. He laughed, looked around, and then looked at Ye Lun, "Vice President, today, you and everyone present will bear witness..."
"I, Xiao He, made a bet with this ignorant boy. If he can prove that he is a ninth-grade alchemist, I will lose five million taels of silver to him! If he cannot prove that he is a ninth-grade alchemist, I will lose to him
I have five million taels of silver!"
"Of course, the premise of this bet is that he can get five million taels of silver!"
Speaking later, Xiao He added another sentence...
The meaning is simply that if Duan Lingtian can't come up with so much money, the bet will be meaningless.
In his opinion, what he did was enough to expose Duan Lingtian's conspiracy.
"Of course I can get the money...but I'm afraid you can't get it."
Duan Lingtian smiled lightly when he heard Xiao He's words.
"I can't take it out? Boy, I am the 'genius alchemist' cultivated by the Xiao family. Five million taels of silver is just a matter of my words. I understand, this is just your excuse, because you
You can’t afford five million taels of silver, so you say that on purpose, right?”
The expression on Xiao He's face became even worse, and the only trace of worry in his heart disappeared. He was convinced that Duan Lingtian couldn't afford so much money. All this was done deliberately by Duan Lingtian in order to prevent him from accepting the bet and let him
He was embarrassed and embarrassed in public.
"What, you were exposed by me? You have nothing to say?"
Seeing that Duan Lingtian seemed a little hesitant, Xiao He sneered, "If you don't have so much money, don't pretend to be fat! If you know the truth, stop talking nonsense and hand over the badge you are wearing."
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "As long as you can take out five million taels of silver and give it to the vice president as a 'bet' for safekeeping... I will naturally take out my five million taels of silver and give it to him as well..."
Vice President. It's a pity that you probably can't afford so much money..."
The smile on Xiao He's lips completely froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Boy, you're not done yet, are you? Okay, I will hand over the five million taels of silver to the Vice President now... Vice President, I have
There are three million taels of banknotes in it, and I can borrow the other two million taels from you first, is that okay?"
When Xiao He raised his hand, a large stack of banknotes appeared out of thin air and handed it to Ye Lun.
As the genius alchemist of the Xiao family, Xiao He is also the only one among the younger generation of the Xiao family who possesses the 'Na Jie'.
Ye Lun frowned slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything. He took Xiao He's banknote and nodded.
"Boy, did you see that? This is my bet, what's yours?"
Xiao He looked at Duan Lingtian, arrogant and sneered, just waiting to see Duan Lingtian make a fool of himself.
"It's ridiculous! He also said that he is a descendant of the Xiao family, and he only has five million taels of silver, and he has to borrow it from others... tsk tsk."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but laugh.
"Stop talking nonsense, where's your bet?"
Xiao He's face darkened, and a desire to kill the other party suddenly arose in his heart.
This kid is so difficult!
"Look, this is my bet... Although I am a nobody, I can only borrow five million taels of silver, but I don't need to borrow it from others."
Duan Lingtian deliberately reached into his arms, took out all the silver notes in the ring, and handed them to Xiao He, "Vice President, this is my bet. Please help me count it..."
Ye Lun's expression froze and he took Duan Lingtian's banknote.
After counting for a while, he nodded, "Yes, it's exactly five million taels of silver notes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Lun's eyes were extremely complicated. He vaguely realized that all this was a trap set by the boy in purple, and he was just waiting for Xiao He to get into it...
He took advantage of Xiao He's pride!
This boy in purple clothes was so terrifying, he completely took advantage of Xiao He's weakness.
Although, now he can almost confirm that this purple-clothed boy should be the 'fish that slipped through the net' of the Alchemist Guild, and he should indeed be a 'ninth-grade alchemist'...
But he still looked forward to the scene where the young man proved himself.
"Wow! It's really five million taels of silver. Who is this young man?"
"Even Xiao He couldn't come up with five million taels of silver notes at the moment, so he had to borrow it from the Vice President... But he took out five million taels of silver notes with just a few moves. It's really incredible!"
"Since he can get so many banknotes and take the initiative to make this bet, is he really a ninth-grade alchemist?"
"Now that things have come to this point, do you think he might be so kind as to give money to Xiao He?"
"If he is really a ninth-grade alchemist, that would be incredible. An eighteen-year-old ninth-grade alchemist is definitely a 'first' for our Chixiao Kingdom!"
"It seems that we are lucky enough to witness that sacred moment with our own eyes."
…
The crowd of onlookers grew larger and larger, and everyone who entered the Alchemist Guild gathered around.
Some uninformed people, after learning the ins and outs of the matter from those around them, looked at Duan Lingtian and Xiao He with great interest, waiting for the most critical moment to arrive...
These two people.
One is the famous ‘genius alchemist’ in Chixiao Kingdom!
