"Ahem, this can only be understood and cannot be explained in words..." Ye Lang coughed.
"Are you sure you can do it? Can you remain unscathed?" Ye Chengtian asked doubtfully. He only cared about remaining unscathed; winning or losing was not an issue.
"I'm sure and for sure!" Ye Lang was very serious, so serious that others also thought it was true, temporarily, just temporarily!
"Then... I still have to go!" Ye Chengtian hesitated for a while, still did not change his mind.
“…”
Ye Lang began to insist on not letting anyone interfere, otherwise he would fall out with them, but the effect was not very good and not many people cared about him.
But in the end Ye Chengtian did not go. This was not because Ye Lang finally succeeded, but because Li Danteng took the initiative to change the life and death duel into an ordinary duel.
Although such a situation has rarely happened and no one will change the way of fighting later, but after all, the situation this time is special and no one will object. On the contrary, there are many people who support it, almost the whole city supports it!
Perhaps no one expected that the whole city was protecting Ye Lang. When they learned that Li Danteng had "forced" Ye Lang to fight a life-and-death duel, many people rushed to the home of the First Sword Saint, accusing Li Danteng of such shameless and brazen behavior and strongly demanding that he withdraw from this life-and-death duel.
Under the pressure of the people, and the fact that the First Sword Saint felt that there was something wrong with Li Danteng in this matter, and he did not want to offend the Ye family because of this, but since the duel was decided, he should not retreat, and withdrawing was impossible!
Therefore, the First Sword Saint asked Li Danteng to change the way of fighting, so that both sides did not need to fight to the death!
Although this concession still makes many people dissatisfied, it is the only way.
The time and venue for the duel between the two sides have also been set. It will be held at the Royal Academy Arena seven days later. This arena is a large arena that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
After this, Li Danteng has been training secretly to prepare for the duel seven days later. He must give his all in every duel, even if the opponent is a loser like Ye Lang.
As for the waste material? No, what about Ye Lang?
He was still attending classes at the academy as usual...
"Ye Lang, how come you act like nothing happened?" Zhen Xiaoyan asked weakly. He said yesterday that he would definitely win and act like a man, but now it seems that he doesn't take this matter seriously at all.
"What happened?" Ye Lang seemed to have really forgotten.
"Your duel with Li Danteng!" Zhen Xiaoyan shook her head, feeling even more powerless.
"That's going to happen in seven days. Why are you talking about it now?" Ye Lang remembered it, but he wasn't nervous at all.
"You need to be prepared, otherwise how can you defeat others and remain unscathed! Humph, if you dare to lose even a hair, I will make you pay!" Zhen Xiaoyan grabbed Ye Lang's hand and said harshly.
"Fatty, it's normal to accidentally lose a hair. You can't blame me!" Ye Lang said innocently.
"..., I don't care, anyway, you can't lose a single hair. At most, I'll let you lose a tiny hair..." Zhen Xiaoyan was silent for a while, and then began to speak "unreasonably".
"This is a bit difficult. I need to study it... By the way, where's my lunch?"
"Here it is. I was going to send it to you."
…
A few days later, Ye Lang suddenly remembered something and pulled Zhen Xiaoyan to a place. When he arrived, he was stunned and could hardly believe his eyes.
"Fatty, look at the notice board up ahead. Are my odds three to one or three to one?"
"This, it looks like 'Three with one'!" Zhen Xiaoyan said uncertainly. She also suspected that it was written wrong. In fact, neither of them saw it wrong, and no one wrote it wrong. It was just 'Three with one'!
This is the odds of the duel between Ye Lang and Li Danteng. Ye Lang thought about it and realized that when he encountered a gambling game, how could he let it go? He wanted to wait for an opportunity to lose everything.
However, he never expected that his odds would be so low, even lower than Li Danteng's. Li Danteng's odds were one to one, while if he died, his odds would be three to one!
What is going on?
Ye Lang also didn't know that in this gambling game, almost everyone supported Ye Lang and placed their chips on him, so that the odds kept getting lower, from the original unbelievably high to the current unbelievably low.
This situation surprised many people.
"Are you betting on Thirteenth Young Master to win again? Hey, have you ever done any research? Thirteenth Young Master is a useless piece of shit who can't do anything. His chances of winning aren't even one percent."
"We know!"
"Then why do you still want to bet on the Thirteenth Young Master?"
"Because we like Thirteenth Young Master!"
This is what some ordinary civilians said, while the opinions of other nobles and wealthy people who placed heavy bets should be explained by the emperor. This "gambling" emperor placed a heavy bet again this time!
The emperor's reason was still the same -
"I don't know Ye Lang's strength, but I know his luck. I believe he will win!!"
There were various other reasons that made this incident surprising, and it also made Ye Lang feel very relieved and happy that he had such high popularity.
As for such low odds, he didn't mind, not at all. He never wanted to make money with high odds. He came here to bet on Li Danteng, so he would definitely lose the money!
However, this time, he couldn't place a bet!
"What, you won't bet on me? Why?"
"Thirteenth Young Master, you are the protagonist this time. Although we believe in your character, this is against the rules! If you want to place a bet, place it on yourself. This is still acceptable!" said the casino employee humbly.
"Fuck it! If I do it to myself, I'll win money. Forget it, just pretend I never came!!"
“…” You’re the only one who doesn’t want to win money and only thinks about losing money…
Just like that, Ye Lang took Zhen Xiaoyan out of the gambling house and wandered around the streets, looking for fun and delicious food...
"Ye Lang, you should go prepare for the duel and stop wandering around." This was what Zhen Xiaoyan said at the beginning, but not long after, she said something else -
"Ye Lang, this is delicious, and this, this..."
In the end, Zhen Xiaoyan just accompanied Ye Lang everywhere and forgot about the duel!
Time passed little by little. Li Danteng worked hard every day, while Ye Lang just ate, drank and had fun every day, forming a sharp contrast between the two.
Did Ye Lang give up completely, or was he full of confidence?
Theoretically, it should be the former, and many people also think it is the former. As far as everyone knows, Ye Lang, who has never practiced martial arts before, is 100% unable to beat Li Danteng. In this case, there is no need to prepare anything.
But some people think it will be the latter, because Ye Lang has enviable luck, and Li Danteng may be defeated without a fight. This is also the main reason why most people support Ye Lang.
What exactly is it? We will find out today!
