Chapter 344: Is Chu Ning a little weird?
Wuliang Sword Mountain.
Chu Ning was bored and stayed in the yard alone. Even if Helian Weizong disliked Xie Jingxing, he had to entertain him well on the surface.
These days, Xie Jingxing was drinking tea and discussing Taoism with some elders from Wuliang Sword Mountain.
As for Chu Ning, his strength was too low to participate in the high-end game, and the disciples of Wuliang Jianshan all knew about the arrogant words he uttered in the hall that day. If he dared to leave the courtyard and walk around in Wuliang Jianshan, he would probably be besieged.
Chu Ning still has this self-awareness.
Since he was bored, Chu Ning took out the instant communication and prepared to see if there were any major events happening in the world of cultivators recently.
As a result, the melon eater ended up eating his own food.
In the instant communication, the latest information released by Sihai Trading Company, his is the headline on the front page.
[Shocking news: The leader of the Yuanlong Ranking may be replaced, just because of his action. ]
…
Chu Ning: This editor of Instant Pass is probably also a time traveler, from the UC department? This message analyzes his and Jiang Zuo's strengths in hundreds of words, and finally summarizes it in one sentence: Chu Ning is very strong, and Jiang Zuo's Nascent Soul is invincible.
Analysis is the same as no analysis, which is in line with the UC writing style.
The next few messages were pure gossip. Chu Ning just glanced at them and then looked at the chat area.
Sihai Trading Company upgraded the Instant Communication some time ago. It is no longer limited to the East China Sea area, but has also started to be deployed in other areas.
But at present, cross-domain communication is not possible. Each domain has its own partition. Chu Ning is now in the Demon-Slaying Domain, so he can only enter the chat area of the Demon-Slaying Domain.
When in Danyu, Chu Ning silently peeked at the screen several times and found that there were quite a few users of Danyu Instant Communication, and there were people chatting in the chat area almost every day.
Yes, alchemists are all rich people.
However, there is a characteristic of Danyu's chat area, which is that it is very easy to start cursing while chatting.
The alchemists of the six major sects in Dan Domain each have their own theories. Different theories mean different positions, and different positions naturally lead to different statements.
There are people who start cursing at each other almost every month, and some even end up exposing each other’s identities and starting offline fights.
"The prototype of online trolls has appeared, and they are starting to play with offline reality."
Chu Ning was amazed. He once again witnessed the rise of the Internet, but this time it was in the world of cultivators.
It seems that trolls do not differentiate between ordinary people and monks.
The chat area of the Demon Slayer Domain.
There were only a few cold chat messages. Chu Ning glanced at them and one of them said something that caught his attention.
[Swordsman: Tsk tsk tsk, according to rumors, Sihai Trading Company is planning to start a gambling game, what do you think, fellow Taoists? ]
However, no one responded to this person's words.
"Si Hai Trading Company is starting another gambling game, betting on the battle between me and Jiang Zuo?"
Chu Ning's eyes lit up. Sihai Trading Company was a good group of people, and they were eager to give him spiritual crystals.
"I am the party involved. Sihai Trading Company will not let me be the collateral..."
Chu Ning thought about it, fortunately, the spiritual realm is with the main body, and the main body can change its shape and place a bet at the Sihai Trading Company in Danyu.
I still have more than 40,000 spirit crystals on me, so I definitely can’t miss such a good opportunity to make a fortune.
…
…
Ten days later.
The top ten masters of the Yuanlong Ranking have already arrived, and Wuliangjian Mountain has rarely opened its Doujian Peak to the public.
Doujian Peak was the place where the disciples of Wuliangjian Mountain used to practice and compete within the sect. This time, Wuliangjian Mountain was directly open to the public, and any Nascent Soul cultivator could come in and watch the battle.
Not only the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Demon-Slaying Domain, but even some Nascent Soul cultivators from other domains, especially those on the Yuanlong List, all came towards the Wuliang Sword Mountain.
Yun Anlan walked on the colorful ribbon and entered the gate of Wuliangjian Mountain.
She is the elder of Sihai Trading Company and a powerful spirit-transforming expert, so she has the qualifications, and Wuliangjian Mountain has arranged a separate courtyard for her.
Yun Anlan did not come alone. After she entered the yard, another group of people followed her in.
Since they were going to have a gambling game, naturally someone had to take charge of it. She just needed to give the odds.
"What are the tendencies of the cultivators who are currently interested in this duel?"
"Except for a few cultivators in Chengshan and Dan regions, most other cultivators believe that Jiang Zuo will win."
There was no surprise on Yun Anlan's face. Chu Ning came from the Dan Domain. Since they were from the same domain, the alchemists in the Dan Domain would tend to think that Chu Ning would win. But when it came to actually placing the bet, they would definitely be shaken.
This is called absolute spiritual support, but when it comes to paying, you will consider the reality.
"That is to say, if the market opens, most people will bet on Jiang Zuo to win. The problem now is the odds."
Yun Anlan was only thinking about one thing. This battle was different from the Dan Domain's Rookie Competition. The Dan Domain's Rookie Competition had many contestants and several seeded contestants, which would disperse the monks who had placed their bets.
By adjusting the odds, the business can ensure that it will not lose money.
But there is only one bet in this game, and there are only two options: either Chu Ning wins or Jiang Zuo wins. If most of the cultivators bet on Jiang Zuo, once Jiang Zuo wins, the company will have to pay a large amount of spirit crystals as compensation.
Of course, if Chu Ning wins, the company will make a lot of money.
But Yun Anlan has a principle, which is not to take huge risks in doing business.
Unless she adjusted Chu Ning's odds to an extremely high level, high enough to make these betting monks willing to bet on Chu Ning.
But with such odds, even if all these cultivators placed bets, the business would not make much. High odds would inevitably lead to fewer spirit crystals being betted. These cultivators would only place small bets. If they won, they would make a lot of money, and if they lost, it would not be a big deal.
"Elder Yun, if our company wants to reduce the risk of this bet, the final outcome must be that Chu Ning wins."
The old man saw Yun Anlan fell into deep thought and reminded him quietly that it was he who cooperated with Elder Yun when he organized the Dan Domain Newcomer Competition.
The business made almost no profit from that gambling. It simply lost all its money to those monks who bet on Chu Ning to get the first place.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Yun Anlan's eyes narrowed as he looked at the old man. The old man continued cautiously, "After the competition, I paid much attention to Chu Ning and made some inferences about him."
"Tell me more about it."
"According to my understanding, Chu Ning has seldom gone out in the past few years in Danyu. Compared with the other top-level contestants in the competition, Chu Ning is extremely low-key. I think unless there is a very special reason, Chu Ning will never come to challenge Jiang Zuo."
After the old man finished speaking, he saw that his elder did not speak, knowing that the elder had listened, he continued: "The reason why Chu Ning was on the Yuanlong list is because when he was in Jinglan Territory, the person from Tianji Sect took the initiative to provoke Chu Ning."
"Therefore, I believe that someone like Chu Ning would not take the initiative to challenge Jiang Zuo. There must be a reason for this. Moreover, the leader of Danshan Sect has come. If Chu Ning is not confident enough, the leader of Danshan Sect would not come in person."
Yun Anlan understood what his subordinate meant.
"Do you think Chu Ning will win? Don't forget Jiang Zuo's strength. He has been number one on the Yuanlong Ranking for hundreds of years. Do you think Chu Ning can succeed in the challenge?"
"Elder, when Chu Ning participated in the rookie competition, who could have thought that a rookie who barely got to the D level would be able to beat so many geniuses and win the first place in the A level."
After the old man finished speaking, he smiled bitterly and said, "Of course, this is also my own one-sided inference, and it cannot be accurate."
The old man was very smart and only gave suggestions, not daring to make any guarantees. He just felt that Chu Ning was a little unconvincing.
"I understand." Yun Anlan opened and closed his fingers, repeated this several times, and then said, "You go down first, and the odds of the bet will be postponed for a few days."
"Yes, I will take my leave then."
The old man retreated respectfully. Yun Anlan frowned. Deep down, she didn't think Chu Ning could defeat Jiang Zuo, but her subordinates' words reminded her.
Chu Ning was a bit weird. The most important thing was that if she failed Chu Ning this time, she would probably be laughed at by those annoying guys in the company.
Thinking of this, Yun Anlan did not stay in the yard any longer, but turned around and walked out of the yard, heading towards another mountain.
…
…
In the yard, Chu Ning had his eyes closed, but suddenly he opened them and looked forward.
In front of him, Yun Anlan stood there prettyly.
"Mr. Chu, it's been a long time since we last met. I miss you so much."
Yun Anlan smiled sweetly and walked towards her slowly, looking very charming. Chu Ning took a step back.
"Senior, please respect yourself."
Yun Anlan: ...
The word "senior" instantly made Yun Anlan's smile disappear. Women don't like being called senior, and Yun Anlan is no exception.
"Mr. Chu, you can just call me by my name. I heard that you were going to fight Jiang Zuo, so I was worried and rushed here in a hurry."
I believe in your ghost.
Chu Ning didn't believe a single punctuation mark in what the woman in front of him said.
He had a feeling that he had met a kindred spirit in this woman. The kindred spirit did not refer to the race, but to the style of doing things.
But Chu Ning didn't understand why this woman appeared here at this time? If she was teasing him, it seemed unnecessary.
You have to know that this is Wuliangjian Mountain, and the leader of our sect is here too. If this woman has any conspiracy against him, she will not carry it out at this time.
"Mr. Chu's expression really disappoints me."
Yun Anlan had a disappointed expression on her face, but she said, "On my way here in a hurry, I heard that Sihai Trading Company had even opened a gambling game. I naturally support Mr. Chu, but I have bet all my wealth on you. Mr. Chu, you must not let me down."
"Of course, it's okay if Master Chu really loses, but I will lose everything and become homeless. I can only rely on Master Chu."
Hearing the woman's words, Chu Ning instantly understood the purpose of this woman coming to see him.
