Chapter 964: Chapter 966: Major Impact
Xiahou Benmu silently prayed, but the heavens did not favor him. He lost the fourth match point.
Zhang Ze approached Xiahou Benmu, a slight smile on his face, and said, "Thank you, Young Master Xiahou, for your generous sacrifice."
In front of so many people, so many pairs of eyes watching, even if he wanted to change his mind, he couldn’t.
Xiahou Benmu felt as if his heart was bleeding. Just the thought of handing over the Red Crystal Jade made his whole body ache.
He glared angrily at Zhang Ze, snorted coldly, and viciously spat out two words, "No thanks!"
Because Zhang Ze won the gambling stone ga, he beca the owner of the Red Crystal Jade.
And according to the rules of the Gambling Stone Field, everyone present could co forward to challenge again.
The Stone Opening Official ca to Zhang Ze and said, "Mr. Zhang, according to the rules, you are the one initiating the challenge. You need to stay in the Gambling Stone Field for at least half an hour. If no one challenges you within this half hour, the Red Crystal Jade will truly be yours."
Zhang Ze nodded slightly, "I understand, half an hour, I’ll wait."
The Stone Opening Official smiled slightly, then turned to face the surrounding crowd, shouting loudly, "Is there anyone who wants to co forward and challenge?"
The sound was loud in the hall, and people whispered among themselves, but no one was willing to step forward to challenge.
Because the next challenger, if they lose, will have to bear the stone opening costs. Where would gamblers in the hall be so wealthy? Most people were just there for a small thrill with so spare change.
So when the Stone Opening Official shouted these words, no one was willing to challenge.
Zhang Ze sat on the sofa, crossing his legs, his gaze scanning the crowd, finally landing on Chu Ge.
Chu Ge also glanced at Zhang Ze at that mont. With just a look, Zhang Ze understood.
The next mont, Zhang Ze saw Chu Ge slowly raise his hand and loudly said, "I will!"
A single word, full of confidence.
The surrounding audience didn’t expect anyone to really dare to challenge, so they couldn’t help but grow curious about Chu Ge.
Seeing soone willing to step forward and challenge, the Stone Opening Official approached Chu Ge with a smile, "Sir, may I know your na? I need to record it here."
Chu Ge nodded slightly, "I am Chu Ge."
Chu Ge?
When they heard the na, the surrounding people imdiately started whispering to each other.
Even the Stone Opening Official raised his eyes in surprise at Chu Ge, "Chu Ge? Which Chu Ge?"
Chu Ge smiled, raising his hand to cough lightly, "Probably the Chu Ge you’re thinking of."
Although Chu Ge wasn’t into gossip, he had heard a lot of rumors about himself in Shanghai, enough to know about them from others’ mouths.
The Stone Opening Official suddenly realized, and imdiately, looked at Chu Ge with a few degrees more respect.
"Mr. Chu, are you sure you want to challenge Mr. Zhang Ze?"
The Stone Opening Official asked.
Chu Ge nodded, "That’s right, I want to challenge Zhang Ze, and... I want to decide the outco in one round!"
After Chu Ge finished speaking, the people around gasped in disbelief.
Just how much courage and confidence does it take to make such a bold claim, to decide the outco in one round?
According to Chu Ge’s reputation and prestige in Shanghai, if he wins in one round, his fa will soar again, but if he loses, he would beco the talk and laugh of the town.
The Stone Opening Official wanted to remind Chu Ge, but before he could say anything, a voice suddenly ca from behind him.
Zhang Ze had walked behind the Stone Opening Official without anyone noticing and said to him, "I accept his challenge."
One round to determine the winner!
How refreshing! And how arrogant! But this fits the personality of Chu Ge that he knew.
Since the two had never had a fair fight in martial arts, deciding the outco in one round at the gambling table was also a good idea.
Zhang Ze walked up to Chu Ge with a slight smile, "It’s a coincidence we et in Shanghai."
Chu Ge replied, his smile not reaching his eyes, "Yes, it’s just a pity that I won’t extend any hospitality to you!"
Young Master Xiahou hadn’t left and was waiting to see if soone would step forward to challenge Zhang Ze.
He didn’t expect that the one to challenge Zhang Ze would be Chu Ge.
Listening to their conversation, Xiahou Benmu sensed that these two seed not to have a good relationship, almost like they were water and fire.
Xiahou Benmu’s mind was racing with ideas. If Chu Ge could really beat Zhang Ze and win the Red Crystal Jade, he would spare no expense to exchange his possessions with Chu Ge.
Xiahou Benmu silently regretted treating Chu Ge so poorly initially.
What if Chu Ge was petty and refused to exchange the Crystal Jade with him?
Seeing that Chu Ge and Zhang Ze were both determined, the Stone Opening Official didn’t say anything further. After briefing them on the process again, he went to make preparations.
As before, the preparation ti was ten minutes.
During this period, Chu Ge and Zhang Ze didn’t exchange much conversation, but Xiahou Benmu approached Chu Ge with a smile, trying to curry favor, "So Mr. Chu is also a lover of gambling stones."
Chu Ge sneered, "Young Master Xiahou, put away your little sches. I know what you’re trying to do, but it’s a pity my target is also the Crystal Jade, so I’m sorry, even if I win, I won’t exchange it with anything."
Xiahou Benmu didn’t expect that his thoughts would be seen through by Chu Ge, and even more, he didn’t expect such a straightforward rejection.
But now he was powerless, being Zhang Ze’s defeated opponent, he had no right or excuse to say anything.
Nevertheless, he felt uneasy no matter who won between Chu Ge and Zhang Ze.
At this mont, Chu Ge’s phone rang, it was a call from Huo Tianqian.
"Mr. Chu, I got word that a Red Crystal Jade appeared at the Dean Gambling Stone Field."
Chu Ge glanced at the sign on the wall, smirked slightly, and said, "I’m currently at the Dean Gambling Stone Field, and... that Crystal Jade has fallen into Zhang Ze’s hands. I’m about to challenge him in a winner-takes-all match."
Upon hearing this, Huo Tianqian imdiately put down the phone and rushed to the Dean Gambling Stone Field.
Inside the Dean Gambling Stone Field, soone spread the news, and even people from the small hall ca out to watch the excitent.
Zhang Ze sat on the sofa, looking at the increasing crowd with a cold laugh in his heart.
He didn’t expect Chu Ge to have such an influence in Shanghai.
