Chapter 368: 365: There are People Sending Spirit Stones, No Way Out_1

Seeing the light on the ninth floor of the Trial Tower go out and the light on the tenth floor not coming on, the people from Beishan Main City outside breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, this demon kid had stopped. If Yang Chen really made it to the tenth floor in one go, they wouldn’t know what to do.

After all, no one wants to be proven completely worthless.

If Yang Chen really made it to the tenth floor in one go, wouldn’t that be an indirect way of proving their incompetence?

Who wants to be incompetent?

Of course, if they knew that Yang Chen’s failure on the ninth floor was due to a lack of True Qi and not because his strength was exhausted, perhaps their sense of luck would disappear and they would be even more shocked.

As people discussed, Yang Chen also walked down from the Trial Tower.

“Yang Chen is coming down.”

“It’s Yang Chen!”

“This kid…”

In an instant, people were talking incessantly, but most of them had lost their previous mockery of Yang Chen.

On the contrary, many people’s eyes gradually grew respectful as they looked at Yang Chen.

There was no way around it, Yang Chen’s performance just now was too dazzling and unbelievable for someone who had challenged the Trial Tower for the first time.

Yang Chen didn’t care too much about other people’s opinions and views. What he was more curious about now was the one million Spirit Stones Ma Hangbo had bet with him.

One million Spirit Stones was not a small sum, so Yang Chen was quite concerned about it.

With that thought, Yang Chen focused his gaze on Ma Hangbo, who was in the crowd.

Ma Hangbo, being a martial artist, had been knocked unconscious for a short time and was only roused by some people pulling at him. Just as he woke up and saw Yang Chen coming out of the Trial Tower, his heart was pounding wildly.

Ma Hangbo’s heart was in his throat, and now he gritted his teeth and said, “Yang Chen!”

Yang Chen said calmly, “My dear brother, I remember it very clearly: one million Spirit Stones!”

“Yang Chen, spare someone when you can.” Ma Hangbo’s face changed dramatically. Although Yang Chen addressed him affectionately as brother, he didn’t want to see Yang Chen anymore. To give up one million Spirit Stones, how could that be possible?

One million, that was the savings he had worked so hard to accumulate over decades.

If he were to give it up now, he would be ruined.

“Oh?”

Hearing this, Yang Chen sneered.

You don’t have Spirit Stones? You don’t want to give them up?

He didn’t have any ill intentions and said, “Alright, don’t give them if you don’t want to. But I have another condition, and it won’t be difficult for you.”

“What are your conditions?” Ma Hangbo immediately asked.

Yawning, Yang Chen lazily said, “It’s not a serious condition. If you don’t give me those Spirit Stones, you should at least let me publicize the matter. Otherwise, my victory in this bet won’t be glorious, which would be very unfair, wouldn’t it?”

When these words fell, Ma Hangbo didn’t feel much. After all, in his eyes, if Yang Chen spread this matter, the most it would do is damage his reputation. His reputation could never be more important than Spirit Stones. But that’s how he, Ma Hangbo, thinks, not others.

“Ma Hangbo, give the Spirit Stones to young friend Yang Chen.” At this time, Steward Xu somehow had run back, just in time to hear Yang Chen’s words and immediately lowered his voice before harshly scolding Ma Hangbo.

Seeing Steward Xu return was not a surprise, as Yang Chen sat waiting for Steward Xu and Ma Hangbo to discuss the matter.

When Ma Hangbo was scolded by Steward Xu, he suddenly became anxious: “Steward Xu, these one million Spirit Stones are all my savings. Yang Chen himself doesn’t even want them. You, why…”

“Give them to him quickly, spare-no-ones bet, you’ve already bet, could it be that you don’t have the courage to pay?” Steward Xu scolded.

In Ma Hangbo’s heart, reputation is small, Spirit Stones are big.

But that’s Ma Hangbo’s personal opinion.

Are you kidding me? If Yang Chen spreads the news, it wouldn’t just be Ma Hangbo’s face lost, it would be the face of everyone in Beishan Main City. By then, everyone would laugh at them for not being able to afford to lose, for losing the bet but not daring to hand over the Spirit Stones.

By then, do the people of Beishan Main City still need a face when they go out?

You, Ma Hangbo, have saved your one million Spirit Stones, but by then, everyone will lose face with you!

If it had been a private bet between you, Ma Hangbo, and Yang Chen, it would still be alright, but now you’ve made a bet on Yang Chen’s face in front of so many people, there’s no way you can save face.

Steward Xu was also so angry that he urged Ma Hangbo to take out the Spirit Stones without saying a word.

How could Ma Hangbo defy Steward Xu?

The gap between his status and Steward Xu’s was not a little bit, there was simply nothing to compare. Steward Xu ordered him to hand over the Spirit Stones, and if he didn’t today, his place in Beishan Main City tomorrow would be in question.

At that thought, Ma Hangbo’s heart was full of anger, but he had no choice but to obediently hand over the Spirit Stones to Yang Chen. He didn’t fully understand why he didn’t hate Yang Chen, but instead cursed Steward Xu’s ancestors eighteen generations over.

Steward Xu, the old and cunning man, how could he not know Ma Hangbo’s thoughts? He had long cursed Ma Hangbo for his stupidity countless times.

If you were smart, would you bet against Yang Chen?

You deserved to lose one million Spirit Stones.

The happiest person was still Yang Chen. Now that he had got one million Spirit Stones in one go, it would be strange if he wasn’t happy.

But there was nothing to be done, someone was giving him Spirit Stones for nothing.

Steward Xu said bluntly, “Young friend Yang Chen, after completing this Trial Tower challenge, do you plan to stay in our Beishan Main City for a few days or go back to Yuanshan Sect first? In my opinion, our Beishan Main City is small and biased, and it may not be worthy of Yang Chen, my friend, haha.”

His meaning was basically obvious, he clearly didn’t want Yang Chen to stay in Beishan Main City. Are you kidding? You, an outsider, challenged the Trial Tower and achieved better results than our own people from Beishan Main City. How stifled do our people feel?

The key is that Yang Chen’s status within the Yuanshan Sect is not low, he can’t be touched, otherwise, if he really annoys Mu Baisheng and he fights with Beishan Main City, who will they turn to in Beishan Main City?

Yang Chen could not fail to understand Steward Xu’s meaning and said with a gentle and cordial smile, “Haha, Junior doesn’t mind, I’ll rest in Beishan Main City for a few more days, and in a few days I might need to trouble Steward Xu to guide me to the Trial Tower again.”

Steward Xu wanted to curse out loud.

Not offended?

My god, this Yang Chen is really pushy.

But what could he do?

He was really out of options now. He didn’t know what those high-level people were thinking. He had just told the high-level people about Yang Chen passing the seventh floor of the Trial Tower for consultation, and they had considered whether they should stop making things difficult for Yang Chen.

But what about now?
