"Tsk tsk, yet another person who dreams of taking a shortcut using the laws of earth."
A young man nearby, seeing Chen Xuan use the Law of Earth, let out a mocking laugh.
His voice was quite loud, which attracted the attention of many people around him.
"What kind of era is this? There are still people who dare to try to understand jade gambling using the laws of earth."
"Why is it called gambling on stones? It's because during its formation, it undergoes various wondrous changes, which can prevent the prying eyes of the laws of nature from prying into it."
"Throughout history, there have always been some naive young men who think they can become the Stone King just because they have mastered the laws of earth and stone. In reality, they are just a laughing stock."
Many people started discussing it.
Although Chen Xuan closed his eyes to sense the stone in front of him, he was also listening to the discussions of the people around him.
The Law of Earth indeed cannot see inside the jade. Chen Xuan did indeed feel that a special force was invisibly separating his Law of Earth power.
However, the laws of earth combined with the laws of creation make a difference.
Every stone that can be used for gambling has its own unique destiny.
Although Chen Xuan had his eyes closed, he could vaguely sense, through the combination of the Law of Earth and the Law of Creation, that there was something hazy inside the stone.
That thing was about the size of an adult man's fist.
As for what exactly it is, no one knows.
"Kid, I advise you not to touch it. I've already seen that stone. It's just a fake. There's nothing good inside."
Suddenly, the young man who had initially mocked Chen Xuan spoke with disdain.
Chen Xuan immediately opened his eyes. He didn't recognize this person, had never offended him before, and didn't know why this person was so hostile towards him.
"How do you know that nothing good can be cut out of this stone?"
Chen Xuan looked at him with a half-smile.
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately raised his chin and said arrogantly, "It's very simple, because my name is Li Daoshi!"
"Li Daoshi?"
Chen Xuan was completely baffled. "Never heard of it."
After saying that, he glanced at the big black ox and asked curiously, "Have you heard of it?"
Looking at Li Daoshi's confident demeanor, he figured this guy must be quite famous, since his spiritedness and confidence didn't seem like an act.
Therefore, Chen Xuan thought that this guy named Li Daoshi must be quite famous.
Since he's famous, then Da Hei Niu (Big Black Bull) should have heard of him.
However, Big Black Bull looked completely bewildered and muttered, "Li Daoshi? What cat or dog? Never heard of him."
Whoosh!
As soon as Da Hei Niu said this, he was immediately met with a barrage of criticism from those around him.
"Hmph, this dark-skinned fellow, exuding demonic aura, what does he know? Young Master Li is the second young master of the Li family of Nangong City!"
"In the entire Nangong City, who doesn't know that the Li family is a family of jade gambling masters, and the head of the Li family is even a Heaven-level jade gambling master!"
"There are five levels of jade gambling masters. The lowest level is the beginner jade gambling master, and above the beginner level is the yellow-level jade gambling master."
"Above the Yellow Rank is the Profound Rank, above the Profound Rank is the Earth Rank, and above the Earth Rank is the Heaven Rank jade gambling master who has obtained the highest honor!"
"Looking at the entire Nangong City, or rather, looking at the entire Southern Barbarian Lands, there are only four Heavenly-level Stone Gambling Masters!"
"And Young Master Li Daoshi's father is one of those four Heavenly-level jade gambling masters!"
Many people spoke with envy on their faces.
To them, a Heavenly-level Stone Gambler is just like a Great God Emperor—a highly respected figure!
Of course, the realm of a Heavenly-level Stone Gambler is not necessarily that of a Great God Emperor, or even a God Emperor.
However, such people have their own unique abilities and methods in gambling on stones, which is why they are able to earn this title.
It can only be said that in every profession, there are top performers.
Even if one's strength has not reached an extremely high level, becoming a master in certain fields will still earn respect.
"Oh, so that means his father is a top-level jade gambling master? I thought he was a top-level jade gambling master."
Chen Xuan looked at Li Daoshi speechlessly and continued, "You should wear underwear that fit your size. If you're not a Heavenly-level Stone Gambling Master, what are you pretending to be here for?"
"What did you say?" Li Daoshi's eyes widened.
Throughout the vast city of Nangong, whenever Li Daoshi uttered his name, he was immediately showered with endless praise.
And now, he's run into some hothead who actually says he's showing off?
This is absolutely outrageous!
Although he was indeed showing off, this kind of thing shouldn't be said out loud, otherwise it would lose its meaning!
"This kid, is he from out of town?"
"Hehe, I think he's not only an outsider, but also a country bumpkin. He doesn't even know who Young Master Li Daoshi is."
"Although Young Master Li is not a Heaven-level stone gambling master, his skills in stone gambling have reached the level of an Earth-level stone gambling master. Moreover, he himself is a quasi-God Emperor level expert. He can be said to be a promising young man!"
"In the entire Nangong City, Young Master Li is a rare young talent. It is said that several eligible daughters of the Nangong family are fond of him. Perhaps the Li family and the Nangong family can become in-laws in the future!"
"Indeed, Young Master Li is a promising young man with limitless potential, while this fellow in front of me, who knows which backwater bumpkin he came from, dares to comment on Young Master Li?"
Many people ridiculed Chen Xuan, and some even launched personal attacks and verbal abuse.
They wanted to gain Li Daoshi's attention by insulting Chen Xuan, to make their presence known, and to become familiar with him.
If I ever need to ask this young master Li for a favor in the future, perhaps because I spoke up for him today, the matter will be resolved.
Li Daoshi raised his chin, his face showing arrogance.
The people around him praised him highly, though there was an element of flattery in it.
But he certainly wasn't exaggerating.
Li Daoshi certainly has reason to boast.
Not only his family background, but also his personal abilities, make him truly outstanding among the younger generation!
So now, he thoroughly enjoys the feeling of being fawned over and adored.
"Kid, you heard who I, Li Daoshi, am, right? If you didn't hear me clearly, I can have the people around here repeat it to you!"
Li Daoshi put his hands behind his back and said with an arrogant expression.
"No need, I'm not interested in your affairs."
Chen Xuan shrugged and spoke with an indifferent expression.
That's the truth.
He was genuinely uninterested in Li Daoshi; it was just that this guy suddenly appeared out of nowhere and inexplicably started mocking Chen Xuan, acting like he was crazy.
