216: Chapter 131 Hundred Peaks Convergence Technique_4 216: Chapter 131 Hundred Peaks Convergence Technique_4 Show off all you want, I’m curious to see how much longer you can keep up this arrogance.
Chen Shizhi put down his teacup, pretending to be on good terms, and asked, “Old Cao, we’ve been classmates for so many years, can you level with this ti?
With the re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks, around what rank do you think Four Treasures Peak can get?
You know I’ve always been frugal, and I still have so spare money.
This ti, with the re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks, I also want to place a wager.”
“The re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks…” Cao Zhen glanced at Yan Yourong in the room and waved his hand slightly, “Yourong, you go out first.”
Now, aside from Yi Sheng who was with her that day, none of the disciples of Four Treasures Peak knew that he wanted to keep Four Treasures Peak’s ranking at one hundred.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust these disciples, but he feared that if they knew, they might inadvertently reveal his plan.
He intended to clarify everything to his disciples only during the grand competition of the Hundred Peaks.
“Yes.” Yan Yourong, with dissatisfaction written all over her face, cast a glance at Chen Shizhi and left the room.
After Yan Yourong closed the door, Cao Zhen looked at Chen Shizhi with a mysterious expression and said, “This ti in the re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks, I plan to aim for the hundredth rank!”
Chen Shizhi was his old classmate, now living a diocre life, and he wanted Chen Shizhi to live better.
Moreover, Chen Shizhi was different from Elder Copper Plate; he was just a teacher at the Taoist Institution and wouldn’t attract too much attention.
“What!” Chen Shizhi was instantly stunned.
“Keep it down.” Cao Zhen said in a low voice, “My disciples don’t know yet, but I’m prepared to have Four Treasures Peak rank at the very last place.
It’s actually quite simple.
With the current odds for Four Treasures Peak, if I want to earn more Spirit Stones, the only way is to keep Four Treasures Peak’s ranking unchanged.
Right now, this secret is known to no one.
If you want to wager, then stake all your assets on Four Treasures Peak ranking at one hundred!
I guarantee you’ll make a fortune this ti!”
“So, that’s how it is!
Since that’s the case, when I go back, I’ll definitely place my bet on your rank of one hundred.” Chen Shizhi was cursing inwardly.
Cao Zhen, you cheated once before, not satisfied with just once, you want to cheat again, aiming to rob of all my assets, huh?
You’re ruthless!
No wonder you sent your disciple away in advance; you’re afraid she’ll see you cheating and tarnish the image you have in the hearts of your disciples.
Do you think I, Chen Shizhi, am a fool?
To maintain the rank of one hundred?
During the grand competition of the Hundred Peaks, which peak isn’t giving their all to climb even just one or two ranks higher?
The ranking of the Hundred Peaks represents the honor of a peak!
Also, I’ve heard that the Peak Master of Vermilion Bird Peak has said he hopes Four Treasures Peak can break into the top fifty.
Only then would Immortal Li Ke agree to beco your Daoist companion.
Don’t you want to beco Daoist companions with Immortal Li Ke?
You think I ca here just to listen to you and then directly go and place my bets?
Am I, Chen Shizhi, that foolish?
I ca here to use my own observations and your words to determine the rank that Four Treasures Peak aims to achieve.
Now, the answer is quite clear.
Cao Zhen cares so much about Vermilion Bird Peak; he’s so eager to beco Daoist companions with Li Ke, he would certainly do everything possible to break into the top fifty.
Plus, considering the tea leaves from Vermilion Bird Peak, the answer is quite obvious.
Four Treasures Peak will break into the top fifty!
Now, I can go and wager on Four Treasures Peak’s ranking.
Thinking this, Chen Shizhi didn’t want to stay any longer.
He stood up and said to Cao Zhen, “Old Cao, if that’s the case, then I must take my leave first.”
Cao Zhen hurriedly tried to retain him, “No, Old Chen, stay for a al before you go.”
“No thanks, after all, I still need to gather so money.” Chen Shizhi cursed inwardly, a al?
To hear you show off during the al?
“Then wait, the tea leaves, there are also the tea leaves.”
“No need, we can talk about it next ti I co.” Chen Shizhi didn’t want to spend another mont there; he turned and left.
Cao Zhen watched Chen Shizhi’s retreating back, sighed with a hint of regret, “It’s always like this, not even staying for a al, we haven’t had a proper chat in so long.
That’s right, and there’s Chao Zi Zai, I haven’t seen him for a long ti either.”
Thinking of another old classmate, he quickly made his way to Seven Star Peak with the pills he had recently refined at the Five-Elent Pill Ground.
He hadn’t visited other peaks lately, but from what he knew, every peak within the Hundred Peaks was in a state of tension, making last-ditch efforts for the grand competition of the Hundred Peaks, and he assud the other peaks were doing the sa.
However, when he arrived at Seven Star Peak, he couldn’t feel any trace of tension.
It seed as if from the Peak Master Deng Qixing to every disciple, they had resigned themselves to their fate and chosen to lie flat.
It was said that Seven Star Peak and Four Treasures Peak were of equal standing, and the reason Seven Star Peak ranked ninety-ninth was only because there was the even worse Four Treasures Peak.
Now that everyone knew Four Treasures Peak had risen, Seven Star Peak had beco the sole holder of its rank.
If they didn’t lie flat, what else could they do?
“Old Cao, what brings you to Seven Star Peak?” Chao Zi Zai, seeing Cao Zhen coming, expressed joy, but his heart imdiately felt a slight sorrow.
Everyone knew that Four Treasures Peak had risen and that its ranking would surely climb significantly in this re-ranking of the Hundred Peaks.
His good brother’s peak climbing in rank made him happy, but their Seven Star Peak…
this ti, it might very well be the turn for Seven Star Peak to beco the last, the one hundredth.
“I ca to see you, naturally, because there’s sothing good.
Co on, let’s go inside and talk.”
