One person: I was already fighting the Heavenly Master, but the system just came

Chapter 280 Adding Notes

Noisy sounds continued to be heard from a makeshift gambling tent.

“Place your bets, place your bets!” A thin man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks, Liu Er, a servant of the Zhao family, was shouting at the top of his voice, waving a tattered account book in his hand, his eyes flashing with a mixture of cunning and excitement.

“Everyone, come and take a look. Don’t refuse this free money. Sister Baoer is going up against Zhuge Heping!”

The crowd suddenly became agitated and began to rummage through their belongings, preparing to place bets.

Even Wang Mazi, the stingiest young master of the Wang family, took out a dirty jade pendant from his arms. The carvings on it were blurred, but he handed it to Liu Er as if he was holding a rare treasure.

Wang Mazi deliberately said loudly: “I bet on Sister Baoer to win, and I will take this jade pendant passed down from my ancestors!”

In his opinion, with Sister Bao’er’s usual elusive skills and her rumored battles, wouldn’t it be easy for her to deal with a brat like Zhuge Heping?

Some people even took out silver ingots that were only available hundreds of years ago.

“Sister Baoer will definitely win, this money should be used as a boost for her!”

After all, things like silver ingots seem to be the same as in Sister Baoer’s era.

For a moment, all kinds of strange and ancient objects filled the table in front of Liu Er.

There are ancient bronze mirrors, yellowed books, and even a dagger with a broken edge.

Everyone was talking at once, and they all bet confidently that Sister Baoer would win.

“If everyone bets that Sister Baoer will win, then everyone wins, right?” someone in the crowd shouted with a smile, causing a burst of laughter.

Everyone realized that if there was no other party, how could they collect interest? Wasn’t the Zhao family just making fun of them? Suddenly, everyone’s faces were filled with anger again.

Principal Zhang Zhen was wearing a neat Zhongshan suit. Although he had his usual gentle smile on his face, his eyes revealed a hint of depth.

Zhao Feihong beside him also walked over.

The two walked in front of the crowd, still smiling.

Principal Zhang Zhen slowly took out a pocket watch from his pocket and gently placed it on the table. The case of the pocket watch was engraved with exquisite patterns, and it was obvious at a glance that it was of great value.

“I bet Zhuge Heping will win.” His voice was low and calm, and he inexplicably felt like he was sure to win.

If not everyone around knew where Sister Baoer came from, they would all laugh at the principal and wonder if he had gone mad today.

Zhao Feihong then threw the ring on his hand in front of everyone.

If you have that ring, it’s like having half of the cost of the project.

Seeing this, everyone looked at him in surprise.

“Principal, what are you doing…”

“Master Zhao, don’t you know how powerful Sister Baoer is?”

Doubts arose one after another, but Principal Zhang Zhen and Zhao Feihong remained unmoved and just stood there quietly.

Sister Baoer and Zhuge Heping are already standing in the middle of the field.

Sister Baoer still had that expressionless look on her face, her eyes were clear, yet revealed an elusive mystery.

Zhuge Heping had a solemn expression on his face, his hands slightly clenched into fists, as if he was making final preparations for the upcoming battle.

With a crisp gunshot, the battle officially began.

There was a hint of anticipation in Principal Zhang Zhen’s eyes, as if he was waiting for a critical moment to come.

The people around were naturally very happy.

“It’s already very hard to make money these days, and I never thought that someone would actually come to my door and give me their savings that they have worked so hard to accumulate over the years. This is really unheard of and unseen. It’s really eye-opening.”

“Otherwise, how can the Zhao family dominate the city and be so prosperous? It turns out that they have practices that ordinary people cannot understand.”

“To gain a foothold in front of everyone in this way, only Zhao Feihong, Master Zhao, can do it. But he is willing to sacrifice himself to satisfy everyone. It is really admirable, admirable!”

Zhao Kai stood beside his father Zhao Feihong, his face full of shock, his eyes wide open like two black pearls about to pop out of their sockets.

Zhao Kai had been planning to place the bet himself. If he were a minor, he would have definitely placed the bet!

Zhao Kai originally thought that his father came here to place a bet, but he didn’t expect it to be done this way.

Zhao Kai was not only dumbfounded, but also completely puzzled.

“Dad, how can you bet on Zhuge Heping? With Sister Bao’er’s skills, she will definitely win!”

His voice unconsciously rose in tone due to excitement and was clearly audible amid the noisy crowd.

At this moment, Zhao Kai was full of doubts.

In his heart, Sister Baoer is like an invincible god of war. Sister Baoer’s victory in this competition seems to be a foregone conclusion. It is really hard to understand why his father made such a choice.

Zhao Feihong frowned, a trace of unquestionable majesty flashed in his eyes, and he said in a rough voice: “Don’t worry about it, go back to your seat!” The voice seemed to come from the depths of his throat, with a low sense of oppression, like a muffled thunder exploding in Zhao Kai’s ears.

Zhao Feihong had his own plans in mind.

He is well aware of the complexity of the alien world. If he doesn’t perform this drama, how can he convince everyone?

His real goal is not to get people to place bets.

But… raise the bet!
This competition was far from being as simple as it seemed, but he did not intend to explain these thoughts to his son right now.

Zhao Kai clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.

He was filled with resentment and anger, but he was helpless in the face of his father’s tough attitude.

He glared at his father fiercely, and finally turned around angrily, taking heavy steps, one step at a time, back to his seat.

Every step he took seemed to be venting his dissatisfaction in his heart. The ground under his feet seemed to be bearing his anger and made a dull sound when he was stepped on.

Just then, a figure slowly walked towards the place where bets were placed.

Everyone’s attention was drawn to the person who appeared to be Chu Hao.

Chu Hao was a little thin, with a somewhat childish look on his face, looking like a teenage student.

He looked calm, without the slightest sign of fear, and said calmly: “I bet on Zhuge Heping, five hundred thousand.”

The voice was clear and firm, standing out amid the noise.

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter all around. “This kid, at such a young age, is so naughty and has become addicted to gambling!”

“That’s right. I thought I was so powerful, but five hundred thousand is nothing compared to these wealthy customers.”

Everyone was talking at once, and the laughter surged towards Chu Hao like a tide.

They looked at Chu Hao as if they were watching an ignorant child making trouble. In this place full of adult aliens, a teenage student coming to place bets was really out of place. Principal Zhang Zhen stood aside, with a look of surprise that was not easily noticed by others, unlike the mocking eyes beside him.

He pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, his eyes behind the lenses flashing with wisdom, and he said slowly: “Chu Hao, you are a minor. According to the regulations, you cannot participate in gambling.”

His voice was calm yet carried an irresistible power, and it was clearly heard by everyone amid the noise.

Hearing this, the laughter around him became even louder.

“You know you are a minor and can’t participate, but you still come here to act rich, thinking you have a lot of money. In fact, you are just a brat.”

People’s words were full of disdain and ridicule, and their eyes were full of contempt, as if Chu Hao was just a clown in their eyes.

However, Chu Hao was not shaken at all by the ridicule. He just looked up quietly at Mr. Zhao and the principal in front of him.

Chu Hao said nothing, but returned to his seat silently.

His calmness seemed even more special amid the laughter of the crowd.

Although Chu Hao looked like nothing had happened and walked back immediately, the wealthy people present were even more excited by this little episode.

They looked at each other, their eyes flashing with excitement, as if they saw a more exciting drama about to begin.

So, they started to increase their bets!
For a moment, the amount of money bet soared like a rocket.

Someone took out a checkbook and with a stroke of the pen, wrote a check for a million dollars.

Someone just took out his bank card and quickly processed it on the card machine nearby.

The transfer notification sounds came one after another.

The atmosphere of the entire venue was pushed to a new climax.

The smell of money and the tense atmosphere intertwined together, making it almost hard to breathe.

Zhao Feihong and Zhang Zhen watched all this from afar, and they smiled at each other knowingly.

There seemed to be many unknown secrets hidden in their smiles, as if the direction of the game was under their control.

This smile made others puzzled, but they also felt that there was a deeper plan behind this competition.

Zhang Zhen secretly glanced at Chu Hao, who transferred to the school this semester.

“Although you say you are brothers, I don’t believe that you are willing to bet on Zhuge Heping out of brotherhood. I can see that you are very smart, but what secrets are hidden behind you?”

“But it doesn’t matter. I believe that one day you will tell me in person. After all, the fact that you didn’t place a bet has already put you in the vortex of this gambling.” Zhang Zhen thought silently in his heart, looking forward to what will happen in the future even more, and a gleam of light appeared in his eyes.

Finally, in the Colosseum, Sister Baoer moved.

She was like a cheetah that had been accumulating strength for a long time. She suddenly burst out with astonishing speed and took the lead in attacking Zhuge Heping.

“Awei’s Eighteen Styles!” someone exclaimed.

Sister Baoer hasn’t appeared in front of the public for a long time. No one expected that the first move she made was the little-known Awei Eighteen Styles.

Sister Baoer’s body was as fast as lightning, and her punches and kicks made whistling sounds. Every move and every style was so powerful that it seemed as if it could split mountains and crack rocks.

Her movements were concise and powerful, without any drag, as smooth as flowing water.

“It seems that this young man may not be able to withstand even this move? But it’s not his fault. After all, he encountered an ancient true god.”

“If those of us present were caught in it, we might not be able to escape. After all, everyone knows how powerful Sister Baoer is.”

Chu Hao listened quietly to what everyone said, but he found a loophole.

Everyone seemed to be praising Sister Baoer’s power, but no one seemed to have mentioned that incident…

Is it possible that everyone doesn’t know about that matter?

Of course, there is an even more terrifying idea, which is that everyone knows about this matter, but for some reason they have all forgotten about it!
Chu Hao suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

“I just hope it’s the former. If it’s the latter, it would be too troublesome.”

If it is the latter, it proves that after the battle, the other party must have used some despicable means to make everyone forget about the battle.

But I hear everyone talking about the great war that happened hundreds of years ago, so what exactly happened?
Chu Hao couldn’t figure it out for the time being. Maybe he needed to go back to the bunker and ask Nadutong and the others to help him find out what was going on.

Thinking of this, his gaze returned to the Colosseum once again.

Zhuge Heping was not to be outdone. He quickly dodged sideways, waving his hands quickly and muttering something.

As he moved, the air around him began to fluctuate violently, and visible air currents swirled around him, forming an invisible defensive barrier.

Sister Baoer’s attacks fell on this barrier, making continuous noises, but she was unable to break through.

The audience on the sidelines were boiling with cheers and shouts intertwined.

Everyone’s faces turned red for Sister Baoer and they shouted desperately, as if their voices could give Sister Baoer more strength.

Chu Hao still stood there quietly, his eyes closely following the two people in the field.

He didn’t seem to care about the ridicule of the people around him or the outcome of the bet. All he cared about was the battle between the aliens and ordinary people.

Today’s so-called extraordinary people, no matter how powerful they are, are just ordinary people.

All it relies on is the current explosion of spiritual energy.

Now that Sister Baoer has appeared, I believe that more truths hidden after the war that year will also surface.

As the battle continued, the figures of Sister Baoer and Zhuge Heping kept interweaving on the field.

Every move touched everyone’s heart.

Behind this chaotic scene, the smiles of Zhao Feihong and Zhang Zhen remained mysterious, as if the outcome of this battle had already been anticipated by them.

The entire arena was like a huge whirlpool, sucking everyone in.

The final outcome of this gamble is like a mysterious treasure in the fog, waiting to be revealed.

But for some reason, everyone seemed a little impatient watching this game.

Although it hasn’t been long since the gunfire started, Sister Baoer’s strength doesn’t seem to be as strong as everyone imagined.

Originally, everyone thought that the game would be over in the blink of an eye, but seeing that Sister Baoer’s attack could not break through the barrier, everyone became a little anxious.

“Sister Baoer, what’s going on? Logically speaking, one Awei Eighteen Styles should be enough to make Zhuge Heping reincarnate. Could it be that Sister Baoer showed mercy and was soft-hearted?”

They didn’t believe that their judgment could be wrong, and they certainly didn’t believe that Sister Baoer couldn’t beat Zhuge Heping.

“After all, the person in front of me is a student. It’s normal to be soft-hearted. If it were me, I would definitely spare Zhuge Heping’s life.” (End of this chapter)
