Free Web NovelThe second Skill Stone was number 2 next to number 3, still a Three-Star Skill Stone.
Two minutes later, failure.
"Continue."
The third one, a minute and a half later, failure.
"Continue."
Zhang Ben Sanlang suddenly chuckled, "It seems Yan Junior is quite sensible."
Mingxi didn't even glance at him, took a glass of red wine from a passing waiter's tray, took a calm sip, and then: "Ptooey!"
She spat the wine back into the glass.
She placed the red wine back onto the stiff waiter's tray.
She smiled at the stiff waiter, "Would it be convenient to make me a cup of green tea? Preferably a very strong one."
The waiter, while making a quick exit, politely replied, "Of course, please wait a moment!"
Silence, like death, once again descended upon the long table.
The experienced gamblers had never seen such a close-quarters confrontation.
This new prodigy who had just entered Immortal University was a bit too fierce.
They had never seen this way of rebutting people.
And how should one put it?
It seemed very Advanced Level.
"Hahaha."
Zhang Yike started to irritate Zhang Ben Sanlang's nerves again, "Junior, you're the best."
He gave Mingxi a thumbs up.
Mingxi smiled, "You're not bad either, Senior."
Calling Zhang Ben Sanlang "San Gouzi" showed Mingxi respected him as sharp-tongued.
"I can't compare to Junior's generosity and composure."
"Just so-so, Senior's 'Dao Fa Zi Ran' is more admirable."
"Haha."
Others: "..."
How did they start praising each other?
Everyone looked at Zhang Ben Sanlang's ashen face.
The happiness of those two was truly built upon this one's suffering.
The atmosphere after the Skill Stage opened was always tense and exciting, but this unexpected tension and excitement was truly a first for them.
"Chengying."
Emerald Green suddenly let out a low cry.
Mingxi nodded, looking at the dealer whose expression was a mix of bewilderment and shock, with a hint of daze.
"It's ready."
Yes.
Emerald Green had already learned Skill: Lin Zhen Mo Qiang.
The reason the dealer had such an expression was because he understood; a Huiyin Sparrow, presumably his pet, a small Flight-type Transcendent creature, was perched on his shoulder.
It could emit sounds that only specific individuals could hear.
It was equivalent to a secret voice transmission.
So when Emerald Green spoke, the Huiyin Sparrow had already translated it for the dealer.
Upon hearing Mingxi's words, the dealer was still in a state of shock, "Are you sure? According to the agreement, once the pet begins verification, if the verification fails, you will be categorized as a cheater, not only required to pay all Skill Stone fees, but also bear the full table payout."
Full table payout meant that regardless of the outcome, everyone who bet on this table would receive the corresponding odds payout.
Mingxi nodded, "I'm sure."
Emerald Green said nothing, waiting expressionlessly for the dealer to verify.
Everyone else was also stunned at this moment.
"What does that mean? Chengying Demon蛟 learned Skill: Lin Zhen Mo Qiang?"
"Which number is this?"
"Four."
"So Lucky Red won!"
"It hasn't been verified yet, maybe it's a false alarm?"
"There's no false alarm here, only cheaters."
"If it's a cheater, that would be great, I bet on eight!"
The dealer once again took out the previous Skill Detector and began scanning Emerald Green.
Unlike when the instrument was completely still just now.
"Beep beep beep!"
Fast and dense alarm sounds came, and the top of the instrument began to light up red.
"Holy crap! It really worked!"
Everyone gasped.
However, the verification was not over.
The Skill Detector was only the first step of verification; actual demonstration was still required.
Only successful demonstration counted as truly successful verification, which was also to prevent people from cheating by interfering with the instrument.
The door to the transparent glass space beside the long table opened, and Emerald Green entered. According to the instructions, it activated the Skill: Lin Zhen Mo Qiang against the obstacle set up in front!
"Bang!"
The obstacle was destroyed.
The broadcast sound from the transparent space itself rang out: "Using skill, Superpower attribute Intermediate Level skill Skill: Lin Zhen Mo Qiang."
The dealer took a deep breath and announced, "The dealer wins Lucky Red, base amount 6, consumed 4, bonus 2."
The bonus was the base amount minus the consumed portion.
He then looked at Mingxi, "Please, dealer, choose the bonus you want from the remaining Skill Stones."
"Cuihua, you choose."
Although Emerald Green's luck was not as good as Little Silver Flower's, it was much stronger than hers.
Emerald Green casually chose number 1 and number 4.
Number 14 was Little Human's birthday.
The isolation covers for number 1 and number 4 were opened, revealing the Skill Stones inside.
"Damn! One Four-Star and one Five-Star!"
"What luck!"
"Awesome! Truly awesome! So awesome!"
"Stop being awesome, we've all lost our shirts!"
...I should have followed Qian Bingning and Zhang Yike earlier, but I had a brain fart and followed a 'destroy'! That's truly messed up!
Mingxi took the two Skill Stones; she didn't plan to exchange them for star coins. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Wouldn't it be better to keep them to improve Emerald Green's proficiency? Only a fool would want star coins!
The dealer watched as she put the ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ two best quality Skill Stones from this table into her spatial item, swallowing the words he was about to utter.
"As expected of Junior's pet, I knew it wouldn't disappoint us, we're rich!" Zhang Yike smiled so wide his teeth were showing.
The odds for Lucky Red on this table were 3 times, meaning he and Qian Bingning had net profited over 30 million in just ten minutes.
Even for people like them who weren't short on money, they wouldn't find star coins too hot to handle.
On the other side, Zhang Ben San Gouzi was having a hard time.
His yin-yang eyes glared coldly at Mingxi, and his thin lips curled into an even colder, sinister smile, "Yan Junior is truly amazing."
"So amazing, you must continue, right?"
Mingxi wanted to 'ptooey' again, but decided against it. The green tea from Green Field Star was really good.
She wouldn't waste it.
She ignored the clown, called out to Little Silver Flower and the other two, and walked towards table 14.
Zhou Li'an followed like a spirit behind her; although he hadn't spoken the whole time, he had always been there.
Skill Table 14 had the Skill Stone for Teleportation.
Pass.
Although Emerald Green wasn't unable to learn it, it hadn't shown any talent in spatial abilities yet, and relying on a Skill Stone to break through was a bit risky.
Skill Table 18 had the Ice attribute Advanced Level skill Ice Burst Bomb.
Another pass.
Skill Table 19 had the Grass attribute skill Hypnotic Powder.
Still a pass.
Mingxi led the gradually disappointed three towards Skill Table 22.
Skill Name: Tremor
Attribute: Ice
Level: Beginner
Base amount: 4 stones
"Whoa!"
Mingxi was excited.
Tremor, an Ice attribute Beginner Level skill, a control skill that makes the opponent's body continuously tremble, with a small probability of incontinence, not very damaging but extremely insulting, and absolutely effective.
Hmm.
Unfortunately.
Only the trembling was absolutely effective.
"Yueyue, go!"
