Xu Hui stopped in her tracks when she heard Chu Feng’s words and stood where she was.
Xu Hui had always been a clever person. If she weren’t, she couldn’t have entered He Sheng’s company, let alone beco He Sheng’s secretary.
"Step aside," Xu Hui said coldly after a mont’s hesitation, addressing Mahjong.
Mahjong didn’t move when he heard Xu Hui’s command.
Chu Feng glanced at Mahjong and said, "Let her go. She is not a foolish person; she knows how to make the right decision. If she still ends up dead after leaving this place, then it really has nothing to do with us."
Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Mahjong stepped aside, clearing a path for Xu Hui to leave.
After taking a few steps, Xu Hui turned around and looked at Chu Feng and He Sheng with a frosty expression, "Before the matter is thoroughly investigated, I won’t believe a single word you say. My master is Chacai, the Gambling King of Thailand."
After saying that, Xu Hui turned and left.
"It really is him!" He Sheng gritted his teeth upon hearing Xu Hui’s words.
After speaking, He Sheng stood up and bowed respectfully, saying, "Little Friend Chu, there is sothing I’d like to ask of you."
Chu Feng replied, "Elder He, you’re flattering too much. We are in a partnership now; just say whatever you have on your mind. Besides, don’t I also have sothing to ask of you?"
He Sheng said, "Little Friend Chu, I hope you can help bankrupt Chacai. I am willing to offer an additional five percent of profits on top of what we previously agreed upon."
Chu Feng replied, "The additional five percent is really unnecessary. It’s all the sa gamble; bankrupting him will be nothing more than the effort of lifting a hand. However, there is indeed one issue we need to consider."
"What issue?" asked He Sheng.
Chu Feng said, "I think that everyone participating in the World Gamblers’ Championship this ti likely has a power behind them just like . They have financial backing from soone like you, Elder He. How can I manage to win their own money?"
In fact, Chu Feng had wanted to ask this question much earlier, not only because of Chacai but especially because of Joseph.
Chu Feng didn’t know how to make Joseph bet that docunt which involved national secrets, nor would he directly ask He Sheng about it. Now that the opportunity had arisen, it couldn’t be better.
He Sheng explained, "That’s no difficulty. Though powers like ours support each of you in the background, if you’re confident in yourself, you can also raise your own bets. The committee of the tournant won’t intervene. On the contrary, the committee would be very pleased to see such actions, as they make the ga more exciting, and in turn, allow the committee to make more money and advertising revenue."
Chu Feng hadn’t expected this rule, but it certainly spared him a lot of trouble. With such a rule in place, nothing could be better.
To He Sheng, what happened with Xu Hui might be significant, but for Chu Feng, it was only a minor episode. Chu Feng’s primary mission was not to help Xu Hui. His main task was to assist He Sheng, and incidentally help Huang Lan complete that mission. Of course, there was sothing even more important: to see An Rongrong. If possible, he also wanted to take An Rongrong back ho.
The World Gamblers’ Championship officially began on the third day.
This ti, a total of 132 players participated in the competition, representing the 132 most powerful casinos in the world. All these casinos were eager to win the championship, as it signified not just a reputation but also more money and greater influence.
Chu Feng had already reviewed the profiles of over a hundred top gambling experts. Dragon Soul’s ability to collect information was certainly much stronger than He Sheng’s.
Dragon Soul had not only gathered the dossiers of these hundred-plus gambling experts but also categorized them, listing all who could potentially pose a threat to Chu Feng.
According to Huang Lan’s analysis, among these hundred-plus contestants, there were a total of fourteen who could truly threaten Chu Feng.
Of course, Chu Feng thought that Huang Lan was being overly cautious. His own Divine Sense was the ultimate cheat on the gambling table. No matter the ga, his Divine Sense was always of use.
If one considered that, there was really no one who could pose an actual threat to Chu Feng.
Altogether, 132 participants entered the competition, each initially provided with a stake of ten million USA Dollars from the force behind them. Of course, this amount could be significantly higher, but everyone knew this wasn’t a contest about who had more money, so ten million was already quite substantial. Moreover, the event organizers had never restricted external betting and participants gambling their own wealth.
This ant if soone won the championship, they could potentially win over a billion USA Dollars overnight, not even including additional prize money. This was an astronomical sum, an amount that would make anyone’s heart race.
However, making it to the end wasn’t an easy task, considering all the experts present.
The first day’s ga was Poker, and the tournant followed an elimination format. After all, 132 participants were quite a large number.
By the end of the first day, only sixteen players would remain. The sixteen victors would have the right to participate in the second day’s competition.
The competition began with a lottery to determine opponents.
To everyone present, Chu Feng was a completely new face.
While each tournant would see so fresh faces joining the century’s gambling ga, those so-called fresh faces were never completely new.
They were searchable; either well-known experts who had not previously participated or disciples of esteed gamblers who had climbed the ranks through various gambling matches.
Yet Chu Feng had no information available, no videos or even photos to demonstrate his gambling skills. He abruptly broke into the circle, unknown and unheard of by anyone.
However, both He Sheng and Chu Feng did not care about this at all.
Chu Feng’s ability to defeat his own top experts was already proof enough. If not for the committee’s restrictions preventing players like Mahjong from participating, He Sheng believed any one of them could easily make the top ten or even higher.
And Chu Feng alone, having beaten all four of them, had a very, very high chance of securing the championship.
