Chapter two hundred and eighty seventh green competition
Huge profits are tempting, and the influence of the three major underground forces in Mingdu is almost all over the country, so they naturally want a share of the pie. This piece will bring them huge profits every year. This is because the country has a monopoly on this industry and uses rare metals as a strategy
Materials are not allowed to be exported.
The three major underground forces named this competition: Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition, which complements the Continental Young Senior Soul Master Elite Competition.
After weighing the situation, Huo Yuhao chose the Xishui Alliance, which had the strongest overall strength among the three underground forces, but was vaguely suppressed by the other two forces. As for why, only he himself knew.
The venue for the Xishui League's preliminaries is a high-end hotel in the city center. One of the reasons for choosing this place is that it is close enough to the Mingyue Hotel and there is no need to walk too much. After all, Huo Yuhao is not good at walking now. If the journey is too far, it will
He is a burden. It can't be Wang Donger pushing him around the city...
Qingse Hotel, a hotel with a very distinctive name, is only one kilometer away from Mingyue Hotel and only two kilometers away from the Sun and Moon Empire Palace. It is in an absolutely prime location. However, the name of this hotel is often called wrong.
It's easy to mistake it for a sex hotel, but that's why it got its name. This is Xishui League's property, and no one knows whether the Xishui League headquarters is here.
On the surface, Qingse Hotel does not look as big as Mingyue Hotel, with only five floors above ground, but those who are familiar with it understand that its real strength is reflected underground.
Standing at the front entrance of the hotel were four strong men over two meters tall, wearing tight-fitting black suits, looking at the flow of people passing by with cold eyes.
Before Huo Yuhao and the others came near, a strong man in black had already come forward and blocked their way with a raised hand.
"The hotel is closed to the public today, please leave."
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly while sitting in his wheelchair and said, "We are here to participate in the Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition."
The strong man in black was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face softened obviously. The status of soul masters in the Sun and Moon Empire is much higher than that of other countries. It is never a wise choice to offend a soul master, even if the other party is not high level.
.
"Sorry, Mr. Soul Master, the preliminaries have begun and will end soon. You are late." The strong man in black said with regret on his face, but his expression was a little more respectful. Maybe it was because of He Caitou
The mystery exuding from his body also affected his mood.
Huo Yuhao said with regret: "That's such a pity. Originally, I thought that I could represent the Xishui Alliance in the finals and help you win the championship. Do you think this is good? I will use 100,000 gold soul coins.
, I bet that I can qualify today. Anyway, there is not much time now. If I can’t qualify, wouldn’t you give me a sum of money? But if I qualify, it means that Xishui League has a good soul.
Mentors participating in the competition are very beneficial results for you, aren't they?"
The big man in black was stunned: "One hundred thousand gold soul coins, are you sure?" Gambling in the underground world is by no means a secret. Without the tacit consent from above, such a large-scale competition would not be possible. Therefore, this underworld
The big man in clothes did not shy away from it, but he was frightened by the amount of money Huo Yuhao said. Even some nobles rarely made such a large sum, and they still bet on themselves. Isn't he afraid that Xishui Alliance will use secret operations to obtain his money?
?
Huo Yuhao nodded seriously and said, "I believe in the fairness of the Xishui Alliance. If you can't make the decision, you can ask the higher-ups for instructions."
"Please wait a moment." The expression of the big man in black became more respectful. He gave Huo Yuhao a simple salute and then walked quickly to the door of Qingse Hotel. After exchanging a few words with his companion at the door, he quickly entered the hotel.
Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing an elegant white gown came out of the front door of Qingse Hotel. Seeing the four Huo Yuhaos standing outside the hotel, he quickly stepped forward and said with a smile on his face: "My subordinates
People are ignorant, distinguished guests, please come with me." As he said that, he had already made a gesture of invitation.
Huo Yuhao was a little surprised by his straightforwardness. After nodding, Wang Donger pushed him into Qingse Hotel.
The interior of Qingse Hotel is indeed very green, and the layout is very simple. There is no clue that this is the number one underground force in Mingdu, nor that it is a very important stronghold of the Xishui League.
The layout of the entire hotel has a moist feeling, and there are white porcelain decorations everywhere - white porcelain floors, white porcelain walls, and all colors are mainly white and red.
Seeing this, Wang Dong'er, who was pushing the wheelchair, couldn't help but secretly curse in her heart. Are those red arrangements foreshadowing blood? Then what are these white porcelains? Blood in the whiteness?
After entering the hotel, the middle-aged man stopped and said, "Dear guests, I wonder who is going to participate in our Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition?"
Huo Yuhao said: "My eldest brother and I are both going to participate." As he said that, he pointed to the cabbage beside him.
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "I wonder what you call these two gentlemen?"
Huo Yuhao said: "My eldest brother's name is Tang Si, and my name is Tang Wu."
A gleam flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes. Of course he could tell that this was just a random name and could never be his real name.
But what he didn't know was that the two names Huo Yuhao were not randomly chosen. The ancestor who founded the Tang Sect was named Tang San. Naturally, they couldn't add others to it, so the two names Tang Si and Tang Wu came into being.
name.
The middle-aged man did not ask further questions. Many soul masters have special hobbies, and many people have scruples about participating in competitions held by underground forces. There are many people who use pseudonyms, and this competition organized by underground forces can win them over.
It is definitely not based on names. It is very important not to inquire into the privacy of powerful soul masters. Only profit can keep them.
"Because the competition has started for a while and will end soon, so time is a bit tight. Can you please show your identity as soul mentors. I will arrange the competition for you immediately. Also, you mentioned the betting just now.
.."
Huo Yuhao raised his hand, and Wang Donger behind him had already taken out a dark gold card and handed it over.
"This is the black gold VIP card of Ruiqianzhuang that is common in mainland China. Xiaona, you will follow this one up to place your bet later." Huo Yuhao said lightly. After saying that, he raised his right hand slightly, and the middle-aged man only felt a flash in front of his eyes.
Hua, there was already a short dagger in Huo Yuhao's right hand. A white light suddenly lit up, and the fierce sword energy instantly rose into the sky, making a sharp roar in the air.
He Caitou was even simpler. He raised his hand and released a huge soul cannon, aiming the muzzle at the middle-aged man.
Cold sweat suddenly dripped down the middle-aged man's forehead. He hurriedly said: "You two calm down, confirmed, completely confirmed."
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and said: "Since you said time is tight, then take us there quickly." As he said that, he slowly put away the White Tiger Dagger in his hand.
No matter when, he would carry this mother's only relic close to his body. He is no longer the young boy he was before, and he has specially studied the White Tiger Dagger. He later discovered that it turned out to be a level five near-body soul guide.
, comes with a soul skill called Devour. When the opponent's attack intensity does not exceed the range of the White Tiger Dagger, it can devour it and turn it into its own attack power for the next hit.
Back then, when he first went to the Star Dou Forest, he relied on the characteristics of the White Tiger Dagger to survive the attack of the ten-year-old soul beast.
While wiping cold sweat, the middle-aged man led Huo Yuhao and the others to a soul-guided elevator inside the hotel lobby. He then said a few words with a soul-guided communicator, and then led the four of them into the elevator.
ladder.
The elevator kept going downwards and stopped after about ten seconds. When the door opened again, a noisy sound mixed with a breath of drunkenness and wealth came to my face.
Completely opposite to the simplicity of the green hotel lobby, the splendor of the hotel's underground world dazzled everyone's eyes. There was gold everywhere, even the mirror, as if the underground world was entirely made of gold.
The middle-aged man led the four people out of the elevator, first passed through a gorgeous rotunda, and then entered a door directly in front.
There were two guards at the door. After seeing the middle-aged man, they immediately opened the door and invited them in.
Entering the door, they seemed to have entered another world directly. The light here was not as strong as outside and seemed much softer. However, the size of the area made Huo Yuhao look surprised in his eyes.
This is a circular domed hall. The top of the hall seems to be neatly and regularly outlined by countless golden lines. The huge dome provides enough light for the entire hall. Rows of seats extend downward neatly.
, there is a circle of upward escalators surrounding it. At the end of each soul guide escalator, there is a circular room suspended in the air. It is completely invisible to the naked eye how these rooms are suspended in mid-air.
There are a total of eighteen such suspended rooms and soul-guided escalators. They form a faint circle.
In the middle of the hall, there is a circular platform with a diameter of thirty meters. Although it is not as wide as the competition stage of the Continental Youth Advanced Spirit Master Elite Competition, it is still quite amazing. Don't forget, this is the underground world.
At this time, there were dozens of metal tables placed on the competition stage, and the light of the soul guide flashed from time to time. There were also some metal tables placed around the round stage, with a total of more than one hundred. Some metal tables were placed at this time
Already vacated.
The circles of sapphire blue velvet chairs on the periphery were full of people. They were all quiet and attentively watching the people busy on the metal tables in the center. A conservative estimate is that there are more than two thousand people watching.
.It can be seen from their clothes that everyone is either rich or noble.
Huo Yuhao already knew from Nana that those who could watch the battle in person were the big bettors, at least those who bet more than 10,000 gold soul coins. Ordinary people could only choose to place bets at the outskirts of these underground forces if they wanted to place bets.
Just one sub-division attracted hundreds of soul masters under the age of thirty to participate. The appeal of this underground black market competition is quite impressive!
"Excuse me, how many people are there in the Xishui League participating in this competition?" Huo Yuhao asked the middle-aged man who was leading the way.
The middle-aged man said respectfully: "We have a total of 264 soul masters competing here. If we add two more, it will be 266. Some soul masters have already finished their production. Today is
In the qualifying round, you can pass the qualification review by making a third-level soul guide. Of course, it must be within a certain period of time. You see, there is an hourglass on every soul guide's desk. However, now, it is far from the last one to appear.
It's only half an hour before the soul master finishes production, which is about half an hour. I don't know if you two can still make it."
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, with a hint of arrogance at the corner of his mouth: "That's enough." He was not himself now, but playing another person. From this moment on, he had obviously made an emotional adjustment.
"That's good."
Huo Yuhao asked again: "What is your original business here? An auction house?"
A trace of vigilance flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes: "You haven't been to our golden hall before?"
Huo Yuhao curled his lips disdainfully: "Of course I haven't been here before, we nobles..." He paused at this point, with a look of vigilance in his eyes as well. But this change made the middle-aged man relax.
Come down.
Smiling slightly, showing some elegance, the middle-aged man said confidently: "That's such a pity. We are indeed an auction house here, and it is the largest auction house in our Mingdu. Let me tell you quietly, even the royal family
Someone once came to participate in our top auction. If you are free in the future, please come and you will definitely receive our VIP treatment."
While they were talking, they had already arrived near the center of the playing field, but were stopped by someone.
Two middle-aged men wearing the same clothes as the guides blocked their way. After a brief exchange, one of the two middle-aged men said: "The contestants can go in, and the rest of the crowd will go out and wait. The next step is to proceed immediately.
Note."
Wang Donger raised her eyebrows slightly, but Huo Yuhao waved his hand and said: "Xiaodong, Xiaona, you go out first. Xiaona goes to place a bet. I don't know how many times the bet can be doubled today."
The middle-aged man said calmly: "If you bet on the exact number of people who qualify, it can be doubled ten times. You can also bet on the multiple of the number. The odds are different."
Huo Yuhao said in astonishment: "I just said I would bet on the two of us qualifying!"
The middle-aged man said calmly: "There is no such gambling method, this is just a qualifying competition. But the bet you mentioned must be completed, otherwise, you will not be allowed to participate."
Huo Yuhao was stunned and said: "You have never said this before." (To be continued)
