I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan Chapter 798 535: Hot Scene2

"That's incredible. I'm completely blown away by God Xia's magic. I'm nowhere near his level. How on earth did he do that?"

"These coins are so obedient, it's unbelievable! OMG, I'm calling it, he's the God of Magic."

"After seeing God Xia's Coin Magic, I'm utterly convinced. It was truly miraculous."

"After this magic gala is over, I'm definitely going to ask God Xia to teach a thing or two."

Under the watchful eyes of the audience, more than a thousand coins wrapped around Liu Tongtong's entire body, forming a glittering dress. However, the coin dress had not yet fully taken shape and looked quite unstable.

At that mont, Xia Liang shook his right hand, and a large red cloth appeared. He smiled and said, "Is everyone ready? The ti has co to witness a miracle."

Under the unwavering gaze of the crowd, Xia Liang flicked the red cloth, approached Liu Tongtong, and abruptly covered her with it.

Then, holding the red cloth with both hands, he shook it gently for a few seconds. When he lifted the cloth away, everyone was stunned.

Liu Tongtong was now wearing a shimring silver gown that sparkled from head to toe. Her previous dress had vanished, replaced by this magnificent creation.

Even her shoes had turned silver.

Liu Tongtong herself was astonished. She twirled around, examining the silver gown with a look of disbelief. "This is amazing! Is this dress really made from the coins?"

Xia Liang nodded with a smile. "That's right. This is compensation from the coins. They've now beco a dress. You can take it off whenever you wish, of course. But if you'd like to keep wearing it, that's fine too."

Liu Tongtong said gleefully, "I... I want to wear it."

Xia Liang nodded. "Good, then the dress is a gift to you."

Next, he faced the audience below the stage and bowed. "Thank you, everyone, for watching."

Instantly, the audience erupted in thunderous applause and cheers.

Liu Tongtong felt as if she were floating on clouds as she slowly descended from the stage.

After returning to her seat, she still felt like she was in a dream. She reached out and touched the silvery-white dress she wore. It was cool to the touch with a tallic feel, making one wonder if it had truly been transford from those coins.

「anwhile, backstage.」

CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!

As soon as Xia Liang appeared backstage, he was greeted with enthusiastic applause from the nurous crew mbers and other magicians. They had all been completely captivated by his performance.

"That was brilliant, God Xia! Your Coin Magic was like seeing a whole new world."

"My goodness, God Xia, how on earth did you do that? I was totally srized."

"I want to be your apprentice, God Xia! After seeing your magic, I've realized that no matter how good you are, there's always soone better."

...

The world of magic, like any other profession, is one where the strong are respected. If your magic is spectacular, flawless, and innovative to the point where no one can find a single flaw, you will earn the respect of your peers.

"You're all too kind. Thank you for your appreciation and support," Xia Liang said with a faint smile, graciously accepting their praise. "Everyone's magic is unique, and no one's tricks are forever unsolvable. As long as you all diligently study your own craft, one day you will surpass and do even better."

He then retreated to his room to rest. As the headliner for this magic gala, he had successfully ward up the crowd. The stage was now set for the other magicians to showcase their signature acts. His next appearance would be for the showdown with Peng Changye.

Just then, there was a knock on his door. It opened to reveal Peng Changye and his master standing before Xia Liang.

"Xia Liang, I must say, your Coin Magic just now was truly marvelous—I admire it," Peng Changye said proudly. "But as I've said before, a true magician needs to perform a grand illusion in front of an audience, one full of danger and excitent, to be considered a success. In the upcoming Water Tank Escape... I will definitely defeat you and show you what real magic is."

Willis stepped forward with a smile. "Xia Liang, although I am Changye's master, your opening act was indeed splendid. You managed to captivate the audience, and I admire your magic for that. Still, I suggest you go and familiarize yourself with your water tank. You have two hours before your contest with Changye, which is plenty of ti to get acquainted with the tank prepared for you. For a magic trick to succeed, the magician must know his props inside and out. You still have a chance if you go now. Of course, I think it will be very difficult for you to beat Changye in the Water Tank Escape."

He said it as if stating a simple fact, not as a threat.

The two water tanks for the Water Tank Escape showdown between Xia Liang and Peng Changye had been custom-made by an internationally renowned master of Magic Props, hired specifically by Willis. The trick involved an extrely difficult performance, and Peng Changye had been studying and practicing with the tank relentlessly since it arrived.

It was safe to say he had studied the water tank thoroughly. He was absolutely determined to win the upcoming Water Tank Escape Magic and felt certain he would defeat Xia Liang.

"No need," Xia Liang said with a nonchalant smile. "As long as you don't tamper with the water tanks and ensure that mine is exactly the sa as Peng Changye's, that will be enough."

He had the top-tier Escape Technique from the System. No matter how extre the environnt, he could always escape successfully, so Xia Liang was completely unconcerned.

"Hahaha, you can rest assured about that," Willis said arrogantly. "As a magician, I do have my ethics. Besides, before the show, I had the professional staff of this gala compare and inspect both tanks to ensure their chanisms are identical, with no deviations. Although Changye is my disciple, and I very much want him to win, I would never stoop to tampering with the Magic Props. Even so, Changye already has a significant advantage. For this trick, he already has a fifty-percent higher chance of winning than you."

Xia Liang smiled faintly, unbothered. "Then I suppose I must thank you, master and disciple, for being so kind as to follow the rules and not tamper with my tank."

Willis and Peng Changye could naturally hear the mockery in his words. However, they had already locked horns with Xia Liang and certainly wouldn't back down now.

Peng Changye sneered, "You don't need to use that tone with . The tricks you perford earlier might have seed impeccable, even flawless, but they were just minor illusions—child's play. Just wait for the Water Tank Escape. Then you'll see what real magic is."

After speaking, Peng Changye turned to leave.

But Xia Liang stood up and said calmly, "Wait."

Peng Changye froze, then turned back to look at Xia Liang. "What, you want to beg for rcy now? Fine. Kneel down and apologize to , and admit in front of the entire audience that your magic is inferior to mine. If you do that, I might consider letting you off the hook."

Willis quickly chid in, "Of course, you could also take as your master. Then you and Changye would be fellow apprentices. Together, we could rule the Magic Circle."

Watching the performance of this master and disciple duo, Xia Liang found it rather amusing.

"Just how confident and narcissistic must the two of you be to say such things?"
