CHAPTER 1298: CHAPTER 1299: THE BET IS TOO SMALL, LET’S MAKE IT 10 TIMES BIGGER

Upon hearing Young Master Mu speak, everyone now saw that right from the beginning, this had been a conspiracy set by Young Master Mu. No, a scheme in plain sight.

Chu Fengmian is now caught in a dilemma, whether to advance or retreat, either choice is a loss.

If Chu Fengmian retreats, it’s just a matter of reducing some momentum, but if he advances and really bets with Young Master Mu, he’ll fall into Young Master Mu’s trap.

Ten thousand Contribution Points are enough to bankrupt Chu Fengmian.

This open scheme was possible because Young Master Mu was confident of victory, so no matter how Chu Fengmian chose, there was no hope of winning.

"Young Master Mu, truly Young Master Mu."

Some martial artists looked at Young Master Mu with admiration.

After all, someone from the Mu family, a master of psychological tactics, a martial artist most needs a heart that moves forward without hesitation. If Chu Fengmian backs down today, it could even affect his Dao heart in the future.

At that time, it would impact Chu Fengmian’s future path of cultivation.

"Dare not gamble? But the stakes are too small, if we’re betting, let’s bet big."

Chu Fengmian suddenly spoke up after hearing Young Master Mu’s words.

As soon as he spoke, quite a few martial artists looked at Chu Fengmian with a bit of pity.

"It’s doomed."

Even a few of Chu Fengmian’s supporters couldn’t help but shake their heads and curse silently.

After all, Chu Fengmian is still a newcomer, a junior, a bit too young, not steady in mind. At this time, gambling with Young Master Mu is seeking one’s own doom.

Now Chu Fengmian has indeed taken the bait from Young Master Mu, unable to resist the provocation.

As for Chu Fengmian’s words about the stakes being too small, in everyone’s view, it’s just Chu Fengmian making boastful remarks, merely to save face.

"Too small a stake?"

Hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Young Master Mu was overjoyed. His original goal was just to suppress Chu Fengmian’s momentum, hopefully affecting his Dao heart, which was his true intent.

But now Chu Fengmian came out with such words, it’s like giving him an opportunity, also pushing Chu Fengmian towards a dead end.

This opportunity is something Young Master Mu naturally won’t miss. Now that Chu Fengmian has put it out there, if he retreats now, it would be an enormous loss of face.

"Such big talk, if a mere ten thousand Contribution Points is nothing to you, then tell me the stakes, whatever you wager, I’ll match it!"

Young Master Mu seized the chance, speaking with a laugh.

As soon as he spoke, he forced Chu Fengmian onto a dead end. Now even if Chu Fengmian didn’t want to gamble, there was no reason not to.

The face-off has already been stripped bare, so however much impact he can have on Chu Fengmian, he will take it, preferably causing Chu Fengmian to be disgraced in the Holy Dragon Secret Realm, unable to keep his footing.

"If we’re to bet, let’s make it big, ten thousand Contribution Points aren’t enough to fill the gaps between the teeth. Forget it, since you don’t have much wealth, let’s multiply it ten times, tenfold to a hundred thousand Contribution Points."

Chu Fengmian looked at Young Master Mu and suddenly spoke.

With this statement, it multiplied by tenfold, a full one hundred thousand Contribution Points.

"A hundred thousand!"

Upon hearing the figure, everyone took a deep breath.

A hundred thousand Contribution Points are equivalent to a hundred thousand Jade Dragon Pills, even if converted to Holy Dragon Great Pills, it would be a thousand pills.

Not to mention an ordinary disciple, even an Inner Sect Disciple couldn’t produce such wealth, and even among True Disciples, not many could put forth a hundred thousand Contribution Points at once.

"A hundred thousand Contribution Points?"

Even Young Master Mu’s face changed; he didn’t expect Chu Fengmian’s opening bid to be a hundred thousand. However, after glancing at Chu Fengmian, Young Master Mu revealed a bit of a cold smile.

It’s nothing but making a bluff.

Trying to scare him away directly?

Even Young Master Mu would have to bankrupt himself to come up with a hundred thousand Contribution Points. He absolutely refuses to believe that Chu Fengmian can bring out such a fortune.

A martial artist from a seventh-tier continent, how could he possibly have such wealth?

"A hundred thousand it is then, I’ll gamble."

Young Master Mu sneered, looking at Chu Fengmian.

"But to gamble, you need to put forward a hundred thousand Contribution Points. Otherwise, thinking you can catch a wolf with bare hands, it’s not that easy. If you can produce a hundred thousand Contribution Points, I’ll gamble with you."

"If you can’t produce it, then just honestly apologize to me, no more bluffing here."

As Young Master Mu finished speaking, everyone present exchanged glances.

Produce a hundred thousand Contribution Points in wealth?

This number to them is astronomical, not to mention a thousand Contribution Points already being astronomical.

Let alone multiplying this figure by ten, how can Chu Fengmian bring it out?

"Too rash, trying to outsmart himself."

One after another, eyes turned to Chu Fengmian, and among the crowd, many shook their heads.

A thousand Contribution Points they might believe Chu Fengmian could produce, but a hundred thousand? They didn’t believe Chu Fengmian could produce it.

In their view, Chu Fengmian raising the stakes to a hundred thousand Contribution Points was just a bluff to try and scare Young Master Mu away, but now it pushed him to the brink instead.

Now, if Chu Fengmian can’t produce it, there’s no need to gamble; he will already be disgraced.

"It’s just a mere hundred thousand Contribution Points, how could I not produce it?"

Chu Fengmian laughed in response to Young Master Mu’s words, and suddenly, ten Qian Kun Gourds appeared in front of him.

Seeing this scene, everyone looked at each other.

Is it possible that Chu Fengmian really can produce it, and it’s not just bluffing?

Even Young Master Mu’s expression started to change; this seemed different from what he expected.

Bam!

The ten Qian Kun Gourds all opened, and the intense fragrance of elixir pills wafted out. Inside these ten Qian Kun Gourds were neatly arranged, exactly one hundred thousand Five Element Great Pills.

"What are these? They don’t seem to be our Holy Dragon Secret Realm’s Five Element Great Pills."

A martial artist noticed that the pills inside the Qian Kun Gourds appeared to be different from the Jade Dragon Pills that Young Master Mu had just shown.

"These are Five Element Great Pills, elixirs from the Five Element Heaven. In terms of value, they are on par with the Holy Dragon Great Pills."

Some well-informed martial artists slowly spoke.

"How does this person have so many Five Element Heavenly Pills?"

"Five Element Heaven?"

Suddenly, everyone was reminded of an idea.

The Blood Prince.

Only the Blood Prince could possess such astonishing wealth. Since Chu Fengmian killed the Blood Prince, he must have also acquired his fortune.

"No wonder this person has such a big mouth, he truly possesses heaven-shocking wealth!"

At this moment, everyone suddenly understood that Chu Fengmian wasn’t merely boasting, but indeed had such a substantial capital.
