"Don't get me wrong, the duel I'm talking about isn't a real duel, but a contest of swordsmanship, a fencing contest!"
Cedric immediately stepped forward to explain.
He didn't have the guts to actually duel; even if he had to serve Ye Chen as a servant for the rest of his life, he didn't want to die.
"Fencing? Pfft, I thought it was something else entirely."
"That's more like it."
"This is interesting."
Upon hearing Cedric's explanation, the crowd couldn't help but discuss it amongst themselves.
This Cedric, he can't even speak properly.
If you're going to have fencing, then have fencing. Why are you making such a show of it, pretending to be something you're not?
These days, how many people dare to actually engage in a duel?
"Fencing, that's good."
Ye Chen nodded.
Ye Chen had already decided to use the [Any Skill Selection Card] he had obtained from his game inventory to deal with Cedric's match.
Ye Chen knows a lot of things, but he also doesn't know many skills. If Cedric mentions something he doesn't understand, Ye Chen plans to use the [Any Skill Selection Card].
After thinking for a long time, Cedric ended up choosing fencing?!
That's it...
Now, he can't even use the [Any Skill Selection Card]. Don't forget, back in Yuecheng, Ye Chen obtained fencing ability from the game and became a fencing master.
"Our third round will be a hunting contest!"
Cedric then revealed what the third game would consist of.
In the best-of-three series, Cedric will naturally bring out his best and most powerful moves in the remaining two games.
Hunting was a favorite pastime for many local nobles and wealthy people.
There are also many private hunting grounds around the city, providing hunting grounds for local wealthy people.
Cedric kept many top-quality hunting dogs and several fine falcons for hunting.
He refused to believe that he couldn't beat Ye Chen even if he used his best skills—fencing and hunting—to defeat him!
"The third match?"
"You're overthinking it. You don't need to prepare for the third match at all."
Ye Chen couldn't help but speak up.
Cedric is overthinking it.
If Cedric had chosen a different match for the second game, he might have considered a third game.
But once he mentioned fencing, the outcome was already decided; there was no need to prepare for the third match.
"Heh, you're that confident?"
Seeing Ye Chen say this, Cedric was extremely disdainful.
Do you really think he practiced fencing for over ten years for nothing?
Just a moment later, when you, Ye Chen, are lying on the ground crying!!!
"There's no time for hunting now, so let's have a fencing match first, and we'll hunt tomorrow."
Cedric glanced at the Patek Philippe in his hand and offered his suggestion to Ye Chen.
“I know a fencing place nearby, can we go there?”
At this moment, Caroline's brother stepped forward.
No one questioned it. Many of them knew about this fencing venue; it was a large-scale facility, and there was no possibility of cheating by either side.
The group left the art studio and went to a nearby fencing hall to begin preparations.
A dozen minutes later, Cedric collapsed to the ground, his mind blank.
From the start to the end of the match, it only lasted a few minutes. He didn't manage to hit Ye Chen with a single sword strike, but Ye Chen hit him with many sword strikes instead.
Yes, there are many swords.
He lost, he lost completely!
How could this happen?
Cedric racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.
Fencing is one of his best and most proficient sports.
How could they have suffered such a crushing defeat at Ye Chen's hands?!
Not only Cedric, but everyone else at the scene looked on in disbelief.
They thought the fencing match would last for one or two hours, or even just a few tens of minutes.
After all, Cedric's fencing skills were top-notch in their circle. Even the truly promising young talents in those major families couldn't compare to Cedric in fencing.
As a result, it didn't even take five minutes, let alone tens of minutes.
Just now on the field, Ye Chen dealt with Cedric like a high school student dealing with a kindergarten child—a completely crushing victory.
They could hardly believe their eyes.
Even the referees and staff at the fencing hall next door were dumbfounded. They had worked there for over a decade and this was the first time they had ever seen such a crushing match. This must be the fastest fight ever to end in their fencing hall, bar none!
"Why............"
Jessica sighed deeply.
Before, she trusted Cedric so much that she thought he could help her escape her fate of being a servant.
result..............
I still have to be a servant.
At this moment, Jessica was truly devastated. She shouldn't have agreed to Cedric's request to compete in oil painting, and she certainly shouldn't have looked down on Ye Chen.
Well, now she's going to be Ye Chen's servant for three years just because of her contempt. That's too much of a price to pay.
"Have you given up?"
Ye Chen took a step forward and questioned Cedric, who was lying on the ground.
This concerns whether he has completed his adjustments, so Ye Chen definitely needs to ask.
"Sigh, I give up, I give up..."
Cedric nodded.
Recalling the "torture" he had just experienced, he couldn't help but feel indignant.
Before coming, he was hesitant and conflicted about which falcon he should use for the hunting competition tomorrow. But now, Ye Chen has solved the problem for him.
There's no need for a third game at all.
“From now on, I will be your servant for thirteen years.”
Cedric accepted the bet and formally agreed.
Just as Cedric finished speaking, Ye Chen's phone received a message.
Ye Chen made an excuse to wash his hands and went to the restroom alone.
Upon entering the restroom, Ye Chen took out his phone and launched a game.
【bite】
[Accept Cedric's challenge, teach him a lesson, crush his arrogance, and make him completely submit; challenge complete.]
[Congratulations on acquiring 7% of Kering Group's shares, surpassing Antonio, who was tied for the largest shareholder, to become Kering Group's sole largest shareholder.]
Congratulations on receiving 274 experience points!
Congratulations on receiving 141 mall points!
Just as Ye Chen was about to put his phone away, the game sent another message.
【bite】
[Bonus rewards triggered for successfully completing the challenge]
Upon seeing this, Ye Chen's eyes widened instantly; he had successfully triggered an extra reward once again!
That's great!
Sure enough, the increased luck value had a noticeable effect; I've already received extra rewards from the challenge twice in a row.
So what is the extra reward this time?
Ye Chen continued looking down.
