A Bet
A Bet
"What is it Young Master?" asked a maid who was approaching at the line.
"Take out 10,000 gold coins." Tian Ming's orders.
The maid hurriedly took out a large coin bag filled with 10,000 gold coins.
"If you win the bet, I will give you all these gold coins. However, if you lose, your two women will become my slaves." Tian Ming smirked because he wanted to make Xiao Wu and Xu Yue into a collection of slaves.
Xiao Wu and Xu Yue wanted to directly tear Tian Ming on the spot. Seeing the boy's arrogance made them both furious.
"Sorry, I don't want to make them a bet. How about like this? I will give this sword to you If you win and you have to pay the right price." Liu Kang took out his Villain Blood Sword.
Tian Ming sneered at the sight of the sword. However, someone in the distance was surprised to see Liu Kang's Villain Blood Sword. He immediately shot up and appeared beside Liu Kang while shouting.
"Legendary grade sword!"
Everyone present was shocked to hear the words of an individual who suddenly appeared in the crowd.
Liu Kang knew that right now he had attracted too much attention.
The man's words took everyone there by surprise. Even the Elders of all sects were shocked to hear that. They Directly focused their spiritual energy on where Liu Kang was to inspect the Evil Blood Sword.
They were all shocked because they didn't expect such a great item to suddenly appear in the Golden Shield city.
The originally scornful Tian Ming trembled suddenly. He was excited because Liu Kang offered a bet using the legendary Villain Blood Sword.
Everyone looked at Liu Kang with great greed. Everyone was planning to snatch the sword from Liu Kang when the student recruitment was over.
"What an extraordinary sword. But it is very difficult to use this sword." Said the old man while stroking the sword.
"Kid, do you want to sell this sword to me?" The man asked with a smile.
"No!" Liu Kang replied curtly.
The old man frowned at Liu Kang's reply. "Too bad, you'd better be careful." The old man smiled lopsidedly as he looked at the sword and Liu Kang with a different look.
Hearing that, Liu Kang understood that it was a threat. However, he only smiled slightly when threatened by the old man.
The old man instantly disappeared again as he waited for the exam to finish as well. He intended to steal the sword from Liu Kang when the event they were organizing was over.
No one tried to snatch the sword in public. Especially for strong cultivators. It would be very embarrassing for them since so many people were present at the location at this time.
However, Liu Kang had already thought a thousand steps ahead. He knows How to shortcut out of trouble that will come to him.
Xiao Wu and Xu Yue on the other hand were extremely nervous as everyone's greedy gazes were on Liu Kang.
On the other hand, Liu Kang remained calm as usual. He looked at Tian Ming again and asked, "How much money did you offer for a legendary grade sword?"
Tian Ming froze because he wouldn't be able to afford such an item if his parents who were clan patriarchs weren't here.
Of course, the Tian Clan was one of the most powerful clans. If the sword fell in their hands first, it was rare for a cultivator to try to snatch it. Even for the elders of the sect who were at that location.
"How many gold coins did you carry?" Tian Ming asked his servant.
"150,000 gold coins, young master." Answer the maid. He was also excited because he was sure they would get the sword. There was no way that all sects would try their Xiao Wu as Liu Kang said.
"Hand over everything!" Tian Ming's orders.
"That's not enough at all. Do you think 150,000 gold coins will be enough to buy a legendary-grade sword?" Liu Kang asked with a faint smile at Tian Ming.
Tian Ming glared at Liu Kang then looked at his servant. "Borrow gold coins as fast as possible 200,000 more gold coins!" Tian Ming ordered then looked at Liu Kang.
"Is 350,000 enough to make a bet?" Tian Ming asked.
"Okay! We agree!" Liu Kang replied with a big smile.
Then they postponed moving toward the aptitude test as they waited for Tian Ming's maid to arrive.
5 minutes later, Tian Ning's maid arrived nodding.
"Since the price of this sword is higher than your gold coins, then I am the one holding the bet," said Liu Kang.
"Why should I believe you?" Tian Ming asked coldly.
"Huh? Are you guys afraid I'll run away? Is your servant capable of detecting a person's cultivation level?" Liu Kang asked with a smile.
Tian Ming looked at his servant. The maid whispered something to Tian Ming which made Tian Ming immediately nod.
"Fine. Leave all those gold coins to this street kid!" Tian Ming ordered his servant.
Tian Ming's servant gave Liu Kang a space ring containing all the gold coins with a disdainful look.
Liu Kang immediately accepted it as if it already belonged to him.
Xiao Wu on the other hand was extremely nervous because Liu Kang's victory depended on him at the moment.
"Let's take the test. You will lose that legendary-grade sword!" Snorted Tian Ming.
Because they stopped for a while, the number of children who took the test was less than a quarter of the original number.
Tian Ming was in the front while behind him was Xiao Wu then Liu Kang after that Xu Yue.
Not long after, Tian Ming arrived in front of testing one's talent.
A middle-aged man looked at Tian Ming with a strange look as he said. "Aren't you the Tian Clan's young master? Why did you take the test with your talent?"
"Just do the test." Tian Ming replied annoyed because he wanted to directly claim Liu Kang's sword.
The examiner was just ordinary because he already knew the nature of the young masters of the big clans.
All the elders there were also interested in Tian Ming. They naturally received news of Tian Ming having extremely high talent.
At the age of 14, he had already reached the eighth stage of Qi refining. It was extremely rare even in the major sects.
