Open up and break into another world

Boom!

As Sikong Liangjun crashed onto the floor with a "boom", the scene fell into dead silence.

Almost everyone present stared wide-eyed at the unconscious Sikong Liangjun; at this moment, it was so quiet that even the sound of breathing seemed to disappear.

Instant… instant defeat!

That's right, yes, it was an instant defeat!

With just one move, without any hesitation, the outcome was already very clear.

Xu Ming stood on the arena, unscathed; while Sikong Liangjun, who challenged him, quietly lay offstage.

It wasn't that everyone hadn't considered that Xu Ming might win, including the First Prince, Wen Man, who was also mentally prepared for Xu Ming to win.

However, no one, it seemed, had expected Xu Ming to win so decisively; as if Sikong Liangjun was not even in the same league as him—oh, no, not "as if", but "absolutely".

"So? I won, right?" Xu Ming rubbed his wrist, as if saying—my hand is so itchy, why haven't we even started fighting and there's no opponent? How lonely!

"Of… of course you won!" Li Wenshi also froze for a while before replying.

The rules of the gambling match: falling out of the arena counts as a loss; being unconscious also counts as a loss—and Sikong Liangjun met both conditions.

"Hurry and help check on Sikong Liangjun!" The First Prince roared at his guards.

Sikong Liangjun was the heir to the Sikong family; if anything happened to him, a storm of blood would surely be stirred up in the capital.

However, Wen Man wasn't afraid of a storm of blood!

Or rather, he quite enjoyed storms of blood. Because the more storms of blood there were, the more opportunities he had to win over forces and eliminate dissidents!

Of course, on the surface, Wen Man still had to put on a very angry posture: "Xu Ming, how dare you take the opportunity to strike a vicious blow!—You better hope Sikong Liangjun is okay, otherwise, you can wait to receive the wrath of me and the Sikong family!"

"Strike a vicious blow?" Xu Ming said disdainfully, "Arena gambling matches are a matter of life and death; he's not skilled enough, who's to blame?"

In fact, Xu Ming's thoughts at this time were more focused on the effects of his cheat.

If it was just the attack boost alone, it wouldn't be so scary; but now, with the addition of a five times defense boost, Xu Ming's body instantly became as hard as a steel plate!

In other words, what appeared to be Xu Ming and Sikong Liangjun exchanging punches was actually Sikong Liangjun using his flesh and blood to fight against Xu Ming's steel plate, which was ten times harder than ordinary steel! Moreover, it was a steel plate with a very high realm!

Before losing consciousness, Sikong Liangjun's only thought was: "What kind of fist is this, so hard!!!"

Then he knew nothing more.

The First Prince's men carefully carried Sikong Liangjun to the side and examined him inside and out several times before reporting: "He's fine, he's just been concussed! He'll be fine after a few months of rest."

"Hmm!" The First Prince responded expressionlessly.

In fact, his thoughts at this moment were—damn it, what a pity, why didn't he die? If he had died, how wonderful would that have been! What a pity! What a pity!

Xu Ming accepted the admiring gazes from all directions and calmly returned to the private room.

In the private room, Wen Shuai felt as if he suddenly didn't recognize Xu Ming: "Brother Xu Ming, I'm calling you brother! Tell me honestly, how much strength are you still hiding? Is this all of your strength?"

All of his strength?

In front of Wen Shuai and Sun Ji, Xu Ming didn't want to hide too much, so he silently shook his head.

"What? This isn't all of your strength?" Wen Shuai suddenly remembered what Elder Du had said, that he had underestimated Xu Ming.

Now it seemed that he had really underestimated him by more than just a little!

"Boss!" Sun Ji, this rough man, had completely lost his mind in front of Xu Ming, leaving only blind worship. The way he looked at Xu Ming was like a infatuated girl seeing her idol.

If his gender didn't forbid it, and his appearance wasn't too shabby, Sun Ji really wanted to rush up and shout: "Boss, I want to have your babies!"

"You two, can you not look at me with such perverted eyes?" Xu Ming scolded, "You're giving me goosebumps…"

"No—Boss, just looking isn't enough to express my admiration for you!" Sun Ji actually threw himself on the ground, hugged Xu Ming's thigh, and smiled: "I also need to use words to express it—ah! Boss, my admiration for you is like a surging river, endless! Ah, Boss…"

At this moment, a warrior from the Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce happened to push the door open; he was stunned by the unusually "strange" scene in the private room.

"Uh… Third Prince, Young Master Xu, this is what you won from this gambling match, please check it. Well, I won't disturb you, you continue!"

After putting down a pile of gold tickets and the fifty Illusory Sea Demon Insects that Xu Ming had originally bet, he fled the private room as if he was running for his life. Closing the door, he couldn't help but think: "If the young ladies in the capital knew that Xu Ming had such a hobby, and such heavy tastes, they would definitely be heartbroken!"

Of course, Xu Ming also noticed the strangeness in the eyes of the Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce warrior, but before he could explain, the other party had already run away; now, Xu Ming really couldn't clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River!

"Get lost!"

Xu Ming kicked Sun Ji away.

Sun Ji wasn't annoyed, and shamelessly climbed to a pile of gold tickets, smiling: "Boss, let me count the money for you!"

This gambling match was incredibly profitable for Xu Ming!

Originally, Xu Ming only had 500,000 taels of gold from selling Illusory Sea Demon Insects. If he took it out to gamble with the First Prince, he would only be able to win another 500,000 at most! So Xu Ming had a flash of inspiration and exchanged the 500,000 taels of gold for fifty Illusory Sea Demon Insects; not only did he severely satirize the First Prince, but he also made a profit of 2.5 million taels of gold!

Two and a half million taels!

You must know that Wen Shuai's entire fortune was only a few million taels. For Wen Shuai to take out one million taels to bet today was already like digging a hole in his storage ring; of course, now, not only was the hole filled, but a small gold mountain overflowed!

And Xu Ming, after just one night, his wealth was already on the same scale as Wen Shuai!

"Now, I have more than 2.5 million taels of gold! Moreover, those fifty Illusory Sea Demon Insects can be sold back to the Little Cheat at a discount at any time!" Xu Ming calculated, "This much money is enough for me to directly buy the Microscopic level realm, and then use up all the level one Strength Stones, and there will still be more left!"

Of course, having made a fortune, Xu Ming couldn't just spend it thoughtlessly, but had to spend the money in the most rational way.

Just when Xu Ming and the other two were overjoyed by the gains from tonight's gambling match, Wen Shuai suddenly received a message, and then his face immediately turned extremely ugly.

"What's wrong, Wen Shuai?" Xu Ming asked quickly.

But when he asked, he felt very powerless—although his cultivation had improved a lot now, and he would soon be able to soar again; however, Xu Ming admitted that he couldn't help with things that made Wen Shuai's face turn ugly.

Xu Ming's strength was still too weak!

Wen Shuai said with a sullen face: "Xu Kai, something happened!"
