"The drawing of lots begins."

When he heard the emcee say these four words, No. 98 deliberately cast his eyes on Huo Yuhao, who was sitting in a wheelchair and was shorter than the others. His lips moved slightly, and his mouth shape seemed to say:

Pray.

Huo Yuhao smiled, very strangely - yes! It's time to pray, pray that you don't draw me.

The method of drawing lots is very simple. There are six small balls in a huge crystal ball. Each small ball has a magnet. There are also two magnets in each of the three areas inside the crystal ball. When the crystal ball rotates, the

Those who are sucked together will become the opponent in today's game.

The two balls No. 96 and No. 98 have been adsorbed in two areas respectively, which means that the two will never meet in today's game. The other four balls are all at the bottom.

"Okay, let me turn on today's lottery crystal. Turn!" Master of Ceremony A Jin pressed a button under the crystal ball, and suddenly, the crystal ball started to rotate slowly.

As its speed increased, the four small balls below were gradually thrown up and rotated rapidly. Only the three places with grooved magnets remained motionless.

Soon, the first small ball was sucked out and into the only empty area among the three areas.

"Okay, District 3, No. 88. I have to say, mysterious soul master No. 88, you are lucky. You have not met two powerful soul masters that we have evaluated as level six."

He Caitou was the first to be pulled out. The gaze of Soul Master No. 98 fell on Huo Yuhao again, as if to say, the chance of you encountering us is even greater.

At this moment, with a "swish", another small ball was sucked up. This time, the small ball was adsorbed in the area where No. 96 was located.

"No. 37, vs. No. 96. First area."

No. 37 suddenly looked dejected. He asked himself, if he met He Caitou, he might still be able to compete. But when he met No. 96, who had been recognized as a sixth-level soul master, he had no chance at all.

.

"Okay, the fifth one has also come out. No. 66, versus, No. 98, second area."

The eyes between Huo Yuhao and No. 98 suddenly became weird. When they looked at each other, what Huo Yuhao saw was the ferocious smile on the other person's face, but what No. 98 saw was a trace of helplessness on Huo Yuhao's face.

Naturally, there is no suspense about the last draw - No. 85, vs. No. 88, third area. He Caitou drew a soft persimmon.

"Okay, the draw is over. Next, there is a quarter of an hour for all the distinguished guests present to raise their bets. Only the distinguished guests present have such treatment. This opportunity cannot be missed, it will never come again. The quarter-hour timer starts. Also please three

The soul mentors participating in the competition are in place. The next five hours will be hard for you, but the final winner will receive the rare metals prepared for you in the center of the competition stage. The value of these rare metals is inestimable, because

They are simply not available in the market. There are fifty four kinds per person, five kilograms each."

After the lottery ended, the entire golden hall immediately became busy. From the lottery positions, many people can evaluate something, and it is undoubtedly the most confident to place bets at this time. Of course, the bets placed within these fifteen minutes will be in

The odds were also much lower than when I placed bets before. But even so, the venue still became busy. The thirty-six temporary betting spots were full of people.

He Caitou came to Huo Yuhao's side and pushed his wheelchair towards Area 2. Number 98 also followed.

"Boy, you're dead. Giving in now is your only chance to survive." No. 98 said proudly, "It's people who do it, but God is watching. I made you arrogant, and I got you lucky enough."

Hahaha."

Huo Yuhao turned to look at He Caitou, frowned and said, "Am I as arrogant as him? No. 98, are you so sure that you can defeat me?"

No. 98 snorted coldly: "If I can't even win against you... hum."

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Why don't we also make a bet? Originally, this game existed just for gambling."

A trace of doubt flashed in No. 98's eyes: "Boy, do you still dare to bet with me? What are you betting on?"

Huo Yuhao said: "Let's bet on your carving knife. If you lose, the carving knife belongs to me. I don't want your life either. You see, how easy to talk, how gentle and how tolerant I am."

"Want my carving knife?" No. 98 was not a fool. Looking at Huo Yuhao's smiling face, he didn't seem to be worried at all. He couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart - this guy is not pretending to be a pig.

Eat tiger?

"What are you betting on me with? Unless you also have a list of engraving knives, otherwise, you have no qualifications to bet with me."

Huo Yuhao said: "I don't have a list of engraving knives, but I have a soul guidance device, do you think it will work?" As he said that, he reached into his arms and took out a soul guidance device that was like a breastplate.

The mortal blessing given to him by Jing Hongchen.

"Brother, take it and let him feel it." Huo Yuhao handed Hongchen Blessing to He Caitou beside him.

He Caitou came to No. 98 holding the Blessing of the Red Dust. Everyone was a soul mentor and had a certain ability to identify soul guides. He Caitou just exposed the core array of the Blessing of the Red Dust to him and gave him a look.

Then he injected a little soul power into it, released a trace of the world's blessing, and returned the soul guide to Huo Yuhao.

No. 98's eyes instantly became dull. That was...

Miniature core array?

The bigger the soul guide, the better. Especially for the core array, the smaller the soul guide, the easier it is to carry. The Blessing of the World is only a few centimeters thick in total. If the core array embedded in it is too large,

How to wear it thoughtfully?

The same core array is ten times more difficult to make using micro-carving than normal production. Generally speaking, only soul engineers of level seven or above will try to make it. Although I just took a look at it, No. 98

However, they discovered that there were at least five or more miniature core arrays exposed by Hong Chen Blessing, and each one looked extremely complicated, definitely not that kind of experimental product. This was at least an eighth-level soul guidance device! And it

The aura is so strong that the value of the miniature core arrays inside alone is difficult to estimate. This is because every high-level soul master has his own special way of making core arrays. If you can learn some, it will be very useful for the Chinese.

For a soul master, it is simply a treasure.

No. 98 never expected that Huo Yuhao would take out such a precious thing to bet with him. Of course, he also believed that the value of his listed carving knife was not lower than that of this eight-level or above.

Soul guide.

Greed began to boil in his heart, and he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao was also looking at him, his eyes were calm, even with a hint of contempt.

Could it be a trap? He has been pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. Is this to lure me into taking the bait and win my ranking knife?

Although No. 98 was a little proud, he was definitely not stupid. Otherwise, he would not have been able to cultivate his soul master to this level before he was thirty. After careful consideration, he decided to reject the bet, even though it would weaken his momentum.

You're at a disadvantage, but it's better than losing yourself on the list, which is more important than your life.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed a detail. Huo Yuhao's right hand, which was placed on the armrest of the wheelchair, seemed to grasp the armrest a little too hard, and his knuckles were slightly bluish-white.

Soul engineers all have one thing in common, that is, they have good eyesight. Otherwise, how can they make delicate soul guidance tools? Seeing his right hand tightly grasping the armrest, No. 98's heart moved again. If this guy is not sure at all,

To win against me, you just want to use this bet to overwhelm me in terms of momentum?

Thinking of this possibility, No. 98 couldn't help but observe Huo Yuhao carefully. Soon, he discovered another detail. Huo Yuhao's other arm, which had never moved, seemed to be trembling slightly. His arm

Deep in the seemingly calm eyes, the eyes were also flickering, and the eyes looking at him were somewhat chaotic. Although it was not obvious, No. 98 still noticed it after careful observation.

"Okay, I'll bet with you." A confident smile appeared on No. 98's face.

Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment: "You really want to bet with me? I just lack a list carving knife. Thank you very much."

No. 98 looked at him playfully and said, "Are you really confident that you can win against me? I can't see you. Boy, since you want to die, I will help you today."

Huo Yuhao said coldly: "Just bet. If you have the ability, make the bet public and let the Xishui Alliance testify for us. Otherwise, what if you lose and cheat?"

The thought that he had already recognized in his heart coupled with greed made No. 98 think that Huo Yuhao was a stern person. He showed a sneer and said: "Okay, then let the Xishui Alliance witness how you did it."

Give that soul tool to me. Come here." He stretched out his hand and said hello to the master of ceremony, A Jin, who was on the stage not far away.

Ah Jin hurriedly came over. He was just a master of ceremonies, how could he dare to offend the most noble soul master of the Sun and Moon Empire!

"Sir, what are your orders?" Ah Jin asked flatteringly.

With a cold snort, No. 98 said: "My opponent and I are going to have a bet on which of us can win. You, the Xishui Alliance, will be the notarizer."

"Ah? Okay!" Ah Jin's eyes lit up. As the gold medal emcee of the golden hall, he knew very well what the VIP audience liked to watch. Only by having fun can the gambling atmosphere be better stirred up, especially in a situation like this.

While placing a bet.

He quickly asked about the situation of Huo Yuhao and No. 98, immediately picked up the amplified soul guide, and said loudly on the stage: "Dear guests who are placing bets, please wait a moment. There is an interlude. I have to

I want to tell you all to facilitate the judgment of all distinguished guests. Just now, the two powerful soul masters No. 98 and No. 66, who we are about to compete in, decided to have a two-person bet. The soul of No. 98

What the mentor used as a bet was his carving knife. And what Soul Master No. 66 used as a bet was a powerful soul guide. We will immediately ask the chief referee of this game to judge these two items.

, to determine the value of the bet. Of course, this bet is completed from now on, and neither party must regret it."

No. 98 snatched the loudspeaker soul guide from his hand and said loudly: "My bet is the carving knife, so I will still use it later in the competition."

After saying this, he gave Ah Jin the amplified soul guide again. When he looked back at Huo Yuhao, he found that he had lowered his head and there seemed to be sweat dripping from his temples.

"Second brother, why don't you forget it?" He Caitou whispered in Huo Yuhao's ear.

"Forget it? No, it's too late, it's already been announced." No. 98 had very good ears and heard his words clearly, and immediately stopped him loudly.

At this time, the three referees sent by the Xishui Alliance for this game have already appeared on the stage. The referees have changed again. Because this is the final top six battle, the referees who come this time are all seventh-level soul masters. Everyone has a face

They were all covered with veils. Obviously, they all had a certain status in the outside world and were afraid of being recognized by acquaintances.

The three referees walked to the stage and came directly in front of the two men.

No. 98 took out his carving knife and handed it over. Under such a spotlight, he was not afraid that these people would dare to embezzle his carving knife, not to mention, he had a profound background.

His dark blue carving knife is obviously one size larger than ordinary carving knives, and there is a faint rust on it, but it doesn't look like real rust. The carving knife is simple and elegant, with a dragon-shaped relief on each side, and it feels cold.

Just look at it with your eyes and you can feel how extraordinary this carving knife is.

Among the three judges, the one in the center carefully took the carving knife with both hands, and his eyes suddenly showed a hint of surprise: "This is... the dark blue dragon?"

No. 98 said proudly: "Yes, it is my dark green."

The referee turned around, took the loudspeaker soul guide handed over by Ah Jin, and said solemnly: "The bet for contestant No. 98 is the Dark Azure Dragon Carving Knife. This is a ranking carving knife. The Dark Azure Dragon Carving Knife

The knife ranks fifty-ninth on the list of carving knives. It has dual attributes of darkness and wind. Any soul guide made with it will have these two attributes. Its weight is three times that of ordinary carving knives to ensure stability.
