The next day.
The third round of the Golden Scale Club.
For the onlookers on Xu Taiping’s side in today’s competition, everyone’s mood was very relaxed.
For the elders of the nine mansions in the True Martial Heaven and the senior brothers of the Qingxuan Sect, Xu Taiping’s successful ascent to the Golden Scale List was already the first time in a thousand years. Next, regardless of the outcome of Xu Taiping’s competition, they could treat it with a normal heart.
And this is even more so for the people on the side of Junior Martial Aunt Lu Rushuang.
Just like the people of Zhenwu Tian, Junior Martial Aunt is very satisfied with Xu Taiping’s current achievements. It would be better if he can go one step further, and if not, there is no regret either.
The two sisters, Seventh Princess Chu Tiancheng and Princess Chu Xiaoxiao, have already made a fortune.
”Your Highness, what do you think I should do with these six hundred thousand gold essence coins… Hehe…”
Chu Xiaoxiao can’t help but giggle whenever she thinks of those six hundred thousand gold essence coins.
Even for their royal mansion, this is a huge sum of money.
”Give me half.”
Chu Tiancheng said unceremoniously.
”Your Highness, what are you saying? What’s the point of dividing? Isn’t mine yours, Your Highness?”
Chu Xiaoxiao smiled playfully.
”The words sound good, but then take them out!”
Chu Tiancheng rolled her eyes at Chu Xiaoxiao.
”By the way, you didn’t bet on this match today, did you?”
She suddenly asked nervously.
”Your Highness, I’m not stupid. It’s obvious that Taiping can’t win this match. If you bet on his loss, you won’t earn much. So it’s better not to bet.”
When Chu Xiaoxiao said this, she looked like an old hand in the casino.
”But have you ever thought about how much you can win if Taiping wins this match?”
Chu Tiancheng deliberately teased.
“No more betting, no more betting. These six hundred thousand gold essence coins are enough for me to spend. Gambling King Chu Xiaoxiao, from today on, washes her hands of gambling.”
Chu Xiaoxiao folded her arms and remained unmoved.
“But if Big Brother Taiping loses this match today, he won’t be able to fight that Ye Feiyu. I still want to see him beat that Ye Feiyu severely.”
At this time, Chu Xiaoxiao suddenly said with a look of regret.
Yesterday, Ye Feiyu broke into Xuanyun Martial Arts Hall and injured Lu Yun and his sister and Monk Chongde. She and Chu Tiancheng had also heard about it.
“It’s indeed a pity. Senior Brother Taiping may not be able to defeat Zhang Moyan of Xiliang, but he will definitely be able to defeat that Ye Feiyu!”
Chu Tiancheng nodded upon hearing this.
This morning, when he saw the injuries of Lu Yun and his sister and Master Chongde, if it weren’t for Lu Rushuang stopping her, she would have been ready to enter the palace to find her father.
Even if the royal family can’t interfere in the Golden Scale Association, she can at least ask her father to find some people to teach the other disciples of Taihao Sect a lesson.
“This matter doesn’t need to trouble Taiping. Your master has already informed your other masters.”
Little Martial Aunt Lu Rushuang picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and then said lightly.
Upon hearing this, Chu Tiancheng’s eyes suddenly lit up and said:
“Master, do you mean that First Master, Second Master, and Third Master are all coming into the city?”
The First Master, Second Master, and Third Master she mentioned were actually the cultivators who were trapped in the secret realm with her. At that time, each of them was teaching her cultivation, so she ranked them in order of age.
“Their injuries have all healed, and they were originally going to enter the city to watch the battle of the Golden Scale Association. This time, it can be regarded as a detour.”
Lu Rushuang nodded.
“Great, great! With the help of several masters, we will surely make the Taihao Sect obediently hand over Ye Feiyu and apologize to A Yun and A Wen!”
Learning that his masters were all coming, Chu Tiancheng became very excited.
“The next match, Zhang Moyan from Xiliang in Youyun Tian, against Xu Taiping from Qingxuan Sect in Zhenwu Tian!”
Just then, after five or six matches, it was finally the turn of Xu Taiping and Zhang Moyan’s match.
Hearing this, several people on the viewing platform who originally had a relatively relaxed expression suddenly became all serious.
Even if the expectations were not high, when there was a match with Xu Taiping, they still couldn’t help but be a little nervous.
“By the way, Manager Lu, when chatting with A Yun this morning, she said that Taiping has some friendship with Zhang Moyan. Is this true?”
Chu Xiaoxiao, who was originally staring at the Golden Scale Platform, suddenly remembered something and immediately turned to ask Lu Rushuang.
“Zhang Moyan did come to visit Taiping yesterday.”
Lu Rushuang nodded and then continued:
“But Taiping said that he doesn’t know Zhang Moyan. As for the matter of friendship, Taiping only said that he once helped some small favors for Zhang Moyan’s friend. He didn’t want to say specifically what kind of favor it was.”
“So that’s the case. I was still thinking that if the two had some friendship, would Zhang Moyan hold back?”
Hearing this, Chu Xiaoxiao said with a regretful expression on her face.
“What are you thinking?” This is the Golden Scale Meeting. No matter how good the friendship is, can it be more important than the fortune bestowed by the Golden Scale List?
Chu Tiancheng gave Chu Xiaoxiao a white look.
“I was just thinking, cousin.”
ChuXiaoxiaosmiled Hehe.
At the same time, she quickly took out the messaging jade slip in her sleeve and took a look. Only a line of words appeared on it – Princess, all the gold essence coins have been bet on Xu Taiping to lose.
After seeing this line of words clearly, she let out a sigh of relief and Secretly speaking in her heart: “Although the profit of each bet is not much, but I placed a lot of bets. Hehehe, I will definitely make a lot of money this time.”
As the saying goes, a dog can’t change its habit of eating shit.
Want to let a gambler wash his hands? Impossible.
“Boom! …”
Just then, the sword qi wall on the Golden Scale Platform suddenly exploded and dissipated.
The crowd who had had many days of experience in watching the battle knew that this was a sign that the competition had begun.
However, what surprised the crowd on the stands of Western Zhou was that Xu Taiping and Zhang Moyan on the Golden Scale Platform did not fight immediately.
Regarding this point, Xu Taiping was also a bit surprised.
“Zhang Moyan of Xiliang, greetings to Daoist Xu Taiping.”
Zhang Moyan, who had a heroic air and an extremely tall figure, smiled and cupped her hands towards Xu Taiping.
“Miss Moyan is being too polite.”
Although still full of confusion, Xu Taiping still cupped his hands towards Zhang Moyan.
Zhang Moyan shook her head upon hearing this, and then said with a serious expression:
“Three months ago, if it weren’t for you, Daoist Taiping, helping to defend Tianhai Pass to the death, my Xiliang would probably have already become a demon domain.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping suddenly understood in his heart.
“It’s not as serious as what Miss Moyan said. I was just saving myself.”
Xu Taiping still didn’t think that he had saved Tianhai Pass. At most, he had just contributed a share. The ones who truly saved Tianhai Pass and Xiliang were those dead Red Armored Cavalry.
Zhang Moyan shook her head again upon hearing this, and then once again cupped her hands and bowed, and then said loudly:
“Zhang Moyan, on behalf of the thousands and thousands of people in Xiliang, express my gratitude to Daoist Taiping for his kindness in protecting us.”
This voice rang out like a thunderbolt on the Golden Scale Platform.
The crowd, who had been looking astonished, finally reacted after seeing Zhang Moyan bowing and thanking Xu Taiping.
Then there was an uproar in the stands of Xizhou.
And just when Lu Rushuang and the others were filled with confusion, Zhang Moyan’s next words instantly turned the confusion on everyone’s faces into shock –
“In this round of competition, the loser is Zhang Moyan.”
