Although Wang Lei proposed betting on the ownership of the island, the rules of the island emphasize fairness, and Lin Xu could not take away Wang Lei's island ownership in return.

Because the size difference between the two islands is too great, Lin Xu's original island was only 100 meters long and wide, while the island owners usually start with islands that are at least 1,000 meters long and wide, and some even have 5,000 meters long and wide.

Therefore, the island space does not treat the ownership of the two island owners as an equal stake, but rather calculates the difference in territory between the two parties and wagers with stakes of equivalent value.

If Lin Xu were to wager his own island, he would only be able to obtain a territory of the same size.

Of course, because his territory has multiple superimposed features, its value may be "slightly higher," but Wang Lei and others certainly don't know that.

However, for island owners, especially those who are commoners, the value of any piece of land is immeasurable.

Only by owning land can one have the possibility of development, more resources, and a higher status.

Therefore, few island owners are truly willing to gamble with the island itself.

Upon hearing Lin Xu's suggestion, Wang Lei's expression froze.

The other students also gasped in shock.

What is Lin Xu trying to do?

Is this a gamble that involves risking everything, including one's dignity, to go all in?

Is this kind of courage and boldness something a normal person possesses?

Is he really that confident in his third talent?

The students subconsciously felt that the information in their textbooks was indeed fake.

Wang Lei's expression also twitched; he hadn't expected Lin Xu to respond in this way.

"you……"

Lin Xu looked at Wang Lei with a half-smile and chuckled:

"What's wrong? Is Brother Wang Lei really like the other classmates say, a good-for-nothing who only knows how to lick boots and doesn't even have the ability to trust his own judgment?"

"What I've brought out is truly valuable stuff. Although my island is only 100 meters long and wide, all this soil and the island's foundation must be worth at least several million, right? With so much money, you can get it with just a small bet. Doesn't Wang Lei dare to reach out and touch it?"

Wang Lei's expression shifted repeatedly, showing a mixture of greed, hesitation, and guilt.

He was naturally envious of Lin Xu's land, even if it was just a small island, it was still a floating island!

For ordinary civilians, expanding an island is extremely difficult; it requires many opportunities to increase territory.

And since Lin Xu's bet was so simple, Wang Lei didn't think Lin Xu could really win.

However, he was not a particularly powerful figure. Even if he were to put his island territory on the gambling table, even in a sure-win situation, he would still feel uneasy.

At this moment, he gritted his teeth and looked at Lin Xu hesitantly. Could this top student really have a chance to turn the tables?

But he didn't believe it!

Lin Xu is good at studying and has strong abilities, but that's because he's stupid. He only knows how to listen to his teachers and only knows how to study technology and so-called theories. He doesn't understand the real rules of society at all.

He didn't think he would be any worse than Lin Xu if they were to face off!

Seeing Wang Lei's expression, Lin Xu said, seemingly casually:

"Are you really so stingy that you can't even part with a mere 100 meters of soil? Even if you lose, it's just a little bit of land. But if you win, you can get millions of dollars worth of land and have top students bowing down to you. Only a fool would give up such a good return, right?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lei's eyes gleamed, revealing a hint of ruthlessness.

That's right!

Even if he loses, he will only have to give up a small piece of territory.

Even if Lin Xu's tiny island, the smallest in history, were put up for gambling, how much would it be worth?

Moreover, Lin Xu can be made to call him "Grandpa".

This once-high-achieving student, who easily gained access to the noble lady whom he could never even grovel before, will now have to humbly and humiliatingly call him "Grandpa." That must be the ultimate enjoyment for him!

At that time, the eldest daughter of the Bai family will definitely despise this top student completely, and see if he is still qualified to associate with the daughters of wealthy families!

Overwhelmed with pride, Wang Lei couldn't help but laugh, chuckling as he looked at Lin Xu:

"Alright, since the talented Lin is so enthusiastic in offering this bet, I can't refuse. I just hope that when you call me 'Grandpa,' you'll do so loudly. I'll definitely record it to commemorate this moment!"

Lin Xu chuckled coldly, too lazy to say anything, and directly applied for a notarized contract with Island Space again, making a bet with Wang Lei.

Seeing that the bet was upheld, the other students all looked on with amusement.

Teacher Li shook her head secretly.

Sure enough, Lin Xu was just a pretty face with no substance. Because of a little bit of misplaced confidence, he actually bet all his wealth on it.

Such qualifications, such personality, and such methods are simply too low-level.

After all, he was just a commoner. Even the most outstanding among them could not compare to an ordinary noble family.

His advice and instruction this time seem to have been a waste of his time.

Lin Xu ignored what Teacher Li was thinking.

He really wanted to trick the other island owners into making bets as well, but island spaces generally prohibit multiple bets on the same item. He had used all his assets for gambling, so even if he wanted to drag others into it, he had no more capital.

So, he simply went to the front of the third instrument.

The shop assistant next to him, who had been watching the whole scene, was also stunned by Lin Xu's boldness.

An island owner would very rarely gamble away his entire fortune.

To seize all the property of an island owner, most people can only send troops from the island's space to attack and force the island owner to surrender.

It is extremely rare for someone like Lin Xu to so openly gamble away the island's rights.

The shop assistant had a good impression of Lin Xu, and whispered at this moment:

"Sir, you placed a rather large bet just now. If you want to stall for time and continue the betting later, I can announce that this testing equipment is unusable and ask you to come back in a few days?"

Lin Xu smiled and shook his head:

"Thank you, but there's no need for that."

The shop assistant sighed:

"Alright, then please be careful, guest."

As he said this, Lin Xu picked up the helmet from the third testing instrument and put it on his head.

The instrument for testing war talent was blood-red. At this moment, the blood-red helmet began to flash, and the next moment, the entire machine suddenly went silent without making a sound.

Everyone was stunned.

Wang Lei burst into laughter:

"Isn't this machine annihilation? Only those with extremely poor, or even negative, talent would cause the instrument to malfunction and become completely unresponsive!"

"Lin Xu, you're finished. All your assets will be divided up by us! You'll have to call me 'Grandpa' three times! Hahaha, why don't you call me that now, and I might leave you a few hundred yuan so you can have a meal?"

Wang Lei's laughter was extremely arrogant. The other students, who were initially a little nervous, relaxed and started laughing along with him.

However, before they could even laugh a few times, the testing equipment suddenly made a sound again.

Extremely bright and sharp red lights emanated from the instrument.

Even the skilled teacher Li couldn't stand the red light and couldn't help but squint.

Only Lin Xu was able to keep his eyes open and see his surroundings clearly.
