Chapter 1322 Putting everything on Ajax's win
King Louie was not worried about the fight between his son and princess Daphne, who were engaged in the past.
'It is a piece of cake for Diego to defeat her.'
This was the only thought in his head before focusing on his gambling business.
"King Louie, you haven't changed a single bit."
Looking at King Louie, who was promoting his businesses amidst the contest, the three protectors and the other powerful cultivators joked with him.
"Haha"
Other than laughing a little, King Louie didn't reply to them; instead, he muttered in his heart, 'You bastards earned a lot in the past contests when you were hosting them and now, you are mocking me if I do the same? Bunch of hypocrites.'
This contest is hosted by one of the royal families in the Purple stone world and it was finally King Louie's turn to host just like everyone, he wanted to make some money.
However, other kings were filled with jealousy because of King Louie's marketing strategy to use the missing Emperor and the guardians of the Purple stone world to attract everyone's attention.
Nevertheless, on the surface, everyone tried their best to not show any jealousy and acted like they were casually joking.
….
At the side, in the gambling den, the bettings on the young participants had opened and those who were waiting in line hurriedly placed their bets before the odds changed.
Match 1:- Prince Diego and Princess Daphne (1.1x : 5x).
Match 2:- Emmie and Prince Eric (1.1x : 3x)
Match 3:- Darius and Prince Ralphy (1.1x : 3x)
Match 4:- Ronnie and Silver goliath (1.1x : 5x)
.
.
.
Match 30:- Ajax and Prince Dennis (5x : 1.1x)
In the gambling den, the odds for the 30 matches were displayed and almost all the young participants from Zrochester province had high odds because their chances of winning against the participants from the other provinces were very low.
Even Princess Daphne was given high odds in betting against her match with Prince Diego.
"Uncle, shall we go and place some bets?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven though Darbaudr asked his uncle, he didn't wait for any reply from his uncle as he directly went to the gambling den.
"Are you planning to place the bets on young master Ajax?"
Uncle Dralf didn't have to think much on whom his nephew was going to bet. As he rushed after him.
"Who else?"
With a smug look on his barbarian face, Darbadur replied as he asked, "So, how many spirit stones do you have? Give them all to me and I will return them to you by the end of the day."
"Huh? Go away. I am going to place all my spirit stones on young master Ajax too."
Even though it has been only a few days since Uncle Dralf met Ajax, he was sure that Ajax was very strong, not to mention he has a king realm spirit beast.
"Sigh"
Darbaudr shook his head as he didn't think his uncle would also place all his spirit stones on Ajax; instead of lending them to him.
Nevertheless, Darbaudr himself had a lot of spirit stones on him.
"10 million low-level spirit stones on Ajax."
"One high-level spirit stone, 10000 mid-level spirit stones and 10 million low-level spirit stones on Ajax."
Without any hesitation, Darbaudr and Uncle Dralf took out their entire savings from their space rings and placed their bets on Ajax.
Compared to Darbaudr, Uncle Dralf was even crazier, as he even placed 10000 mid-level along with one high-level spirit stone.
"Huh?"
The dealer who was taking the bets frowned as he raised his brows and looked at the crazy cultivators who were taking such a huge bet.
"Are you sure about your bets?"
Nevertheless, since the betting amount was very high, he pulled out the information on the participant that the barbarians were placing their bets.
After reading it, he revealed a slight smile on his face as the dealer pointed at the board in the distance and asked whether they were sure about their bets.
'Huh?'
Darbaudr and Uncle Dralf raised their brows as they looked at the board with a heading 'Rules of the fourth round'
On the board, there was a specific rule that the dealer was pointing at.
'No King realm spirit beasts are allowed to be summoned in the fourth round by the participants.'
"Oh. So that's the reason why the odds of a young master are still high."
After reading that specific rule, Darbaudr finally understood the reason why Ajax had 5x returns on his win even with a king realm spirit beast under his control.
"I am sure about my bet."
Nevertheless, Darbaudr didn't think much about it because he was fully confident that Ajax was much more powerful than any young cultivator in this world even with the cultivation of level 2 elite general realm.
"What? King realm spirit beasts can't be summoned?"
However, Uncle Dralf was not as confident as his nephew anymore and thought for a moment before taking back all the spirit stones and leaving only one million low-level spirit stones.
"I will go with one million low-level spirit stones."
Uncle Dralf didn't hesitate with one million low-level spirit stones as he just wanted to test the waters.
'What the…'
'Are they out of their minds or what?'
'These barbarians are really something. I heard they don't have much intelligence and now I am seeing it with my own eyes.'
The other cultivators who were looking at the two barbarians could not help but make fun of them.
"Sure"
The dealer didn't bother to warn them anymore as he accepted their bets.
"Uncle Dralf, why don't you give me the spirit stones. I will give you.."
"What? Are you crazy? I know you trust your young master a lot; however, did you not read what that rule says? No king realm spirit beasts."
Before Darbaudr could finish his sentence, Uncle Dralf interrupted Darbaudr.
"You will not understand even if I explain. Just give me all the spirit stones you have on you right now."
Darbuadr had seen Ajax for a while and also seen how fast his cultivation rose along with his crazy battle prowess that could not be explained by logic.
However, he didn't know how to explain everything to his uncle in a short time as the matches between the participants would start anytime now.
"..."
Uncle Dralf remained silent as he didn't know what he should do.
"Are you giving them or not?"
Darbaudr was no longer asking his uncle; instead, it looked more threatening.
"Sigh…fine. If your young master lost his first match, I will punish you."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShaking his head, Uncle Dralf gave all the spirit stones he had to his nephew.
Actually, Uncle Dralf was giving all his spirit stones because Darbaudr was the true owner of those spirit stones because he was the tribe leader of the Battle barbarians.
"Haha…I know, uncle will not say no to my request."
Darbaudr started laughing as he placed his bet on Ajax.
'What the..'
'The barbarians are crazy.'
'They are really out of their minds. They have already placed so much bet and now they are even placing 10000 mid-level spirit stones along with a high-level spirit stone.'
'Where did these battle barbarians come from? Are they that rich?'
Looking at how crazy Darbaudr was in placing such a large number of spirit stones on Ajax's win, the surrounding cultivators once again mocked them and made fun of them.
"Anyway, who cares. The Flerton family is going to earn a huge sum this time." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ
All of a sudden, the match between Ajax and Prince Dennis became the attention among the gamblers.
"Come back after your participant wins the match."
The dealer was having an ear to ear smile as he gave a receipt made up of beast skin with bet details.
"Let's go, Uncle Dralf."
Darbaudr didn't stay there as he left with his uncle to watch the fight which was about to start.
Other than Darbaudr and his uncle, there were others who were willing to take risks and placed bets on the participants who had high odds and fewer chances of winning as it was the quickest way to make the money.
Seward and Elek also placed some bets on Ajax and their personal disciples in equal amounts.
….
In the first arena, the secret realm.
The fight between Prince Diego and Princess Daphne begins.
"Princess Daphne, since you are my fiancee, I will give you a handicap and let you attack me first. Also, I will not even dodge your attack and completely block it with my defensive move."
Prince Diego looked at Princess Daphne as he proudly replied to her.
"Are you sure about it?"
Princess Daphne asked him with a slight smile on her face without any hesitation.
"Of course. I am a man of my word."
Diego stretched his body as he nodded his head.
"Sure; however, if you lose this match, let's cancel the marriage."
