A gambling match?
The people present all showed a hint of disdain on their faces.
Xu Shuang was a level one Armor Master, while He Yangsun was just a novice Armor Master.
Even though everyone knew He Yangsun was quite capable, he hadn’t been certified yet, so he couldn’t be considered a legitimate Armor Master.
A challenge like this was really shameless.
“Xu Shuang, the rules of Armor Master gambling—” a black-bearded old man was about to speak, but Xu Shuang silenced him with a glare, and he dared not speak again.
He Yangsun remained calm, looking at Xu Shuang. “If it’s a gambling match between Armor Masters, I will definitely participate.”
Then, he glanced around and said softly, “But I won’t gamble on matters concerning a marriage contract.”
His expression was serious as he looked at the Zheng family and said firmly, “That would be disrespectful to the Zheng family and Miss Yuyan of the Zheng family.”
These words made the head of the Zheng family and the others smile in appreciation.
Xu Shuangs expression changed slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he heard He Yangsun’s voice again. “Besides, you’re not qualified to gamble with me on matters concerning a marriage contract.” Not qualified!
This statement made Xu Shuangs face turn livid.
Although others felt He Yangsun’s words were somewhat disrespectful, they smiled lightly when they saw Xu Shuangs expression.
Who told you to be so arrogant?
“I’ll bet this pair of dragon-scaled sabers on your armor!”
Xu Shuang gritted his teeth and shouted. He raised his hand and a pair of long sabers flew down.
These long sabers gleamed with golden dragon scales, shining like layers of golden scales.
Two dragon-like shadows appeared on the blades.
“The Xu family’s Dragon Scale Sabers are top-grade treasures designed for use by level three Armor Masters.”
“Wow, the Xu family actually entrusted such a treasure to Xu Shuang. Is it true that he is the illegitimate child of Elder Xu?”
Seeing this pair of long sabers, there was a buzz of discussion in the hall.
Xu Shuang, upon hearing discussions about his illegitimate child status, was not annoyed but instead smiled faintly.
Although his identity couldn’t be made public, everyone knew he was the illegitimate child of Elder Xu.
Moreover, he was the illegitimate son of a level five Puppet Master.
This elder was supposed to be Xu Shuangs granduncle, but he was his biological father. He had only found out about this two years ago.
This granduncle had put in a lot of effort for him to become a level one Puppet Master when he reached adulthood.
This pair of invaluable Dragon Scale Blades was bestowed by that granduncle.
Seeing the Dragon Scale Blades, everyone in the hall turned to look at He
Yangsun.
Would he dare to accept the challenge?
“Alright, I’ll bet.” He Yangsun nodded.
Han Muye chuckled and placed the jade disc in his hand on the table.
This Xu Shuang was really cunning. He actually wanted to bet on He Yangsun’s armor.
If this armor were really lost, the He family wouldn’t have anything else to offer for a marriage proposal.
Although it wasn’t gambling on a marriage contract, in fact, this battle wasn’t much different from it.
Seeing that the two had reached a gambling agreement, the members of the Zheng family exchanged glances and no longer tried to dissuade them.
Naturally, there were strong individuals qualified to arbitrate in the hall, and the gambling venue was set up just outside the hall.
In a moment, He Yangsun and Xu Shuang stood on the gambling square, surrounded by people.
“Miss, that’s He Yangsun over there. Xu Shuang of the Xu family wants to gamble on a marriage contract with him, but he hasn’t agreed,” a girl in a blue dress whispered from the back of the crowd.
Beside her was a young girl in a floral dress. Her hair was tied up with a golden hairpin. She was dressed neatly and had delicate features.
“Miss, do you hope that Young Master He or Young Master Xu will win?” The girl in green leaned closer and spoke again.
“Xu Shuang is a despicable person. I—I’ The woman felt something was wrong and immediately stopped. Her face turned red.
The woman in green chuckled and clenched her fists. “Yes, I also hope that Young Master He will win. I’m your personal maid, Miss. I have to serve you in the future. I don’t want to sleep with that Young Master Xu.”
In front, a servant of the Zheng family in green clothes slowly turned his head and saw the girl’s face.
“What are you looking at?” The girl glared at him.
“Boom—”
In front, a Battle Puppet had already descended, drawing everyone’s attention.
It was a nine-foot Battle Puppet. Its entire body was golden bronze in color. It had sturdy arms and fingers sharp enough to crush rocks.
Golden light flashed in the Battle Puppet’s eves as it looked at He Yangsun. who was standing in front of it.
Xu Shuang, who was standing behind the Battle Puppet, shouted in a low voice. Regardless of whether He Yangsun had summoned his Battle Puppet or Battle Armor, he had already activated his Battle Puppet and charged towards He Yangsun.
The Battle Puppet took a step forward, retracted its fist, and then punched.
“Good! This strike is decisive!
“Not bad, not bad. Xu Shuangs control over the Battle Puppet has already reached a profound level.
“After all, he’s a successor personally nurtured by Elder Xu. His skills are exceptional. ”
When an expert made a move, one could tell if there was any skill.
This punch broke through the resistance of the void, stirring up a whistling gust of wind. It was a top-notch technique among level one Puppet Masters. Seeing He Yangsun standing motionless in front of him, Xu Shuang smiled.
This guy must have been scared silly.
Thinking about it, he had never seen such control over a Battle Puppet, nor had he seen such a skilled expert.
What kind of experts could there be in such a small town?
The gambling matches in Pagoda City were just child’s play. The real experts were in Maple Forest City!
“Boom—”
He Yangsun raised his arms to block the Battle Puppet’s punch.
The Battle Puppet’s fist hit his arm, creating ripples.
Defense.
Using the power of the armor to activate his defensive mechanisms.
He didn’t need to activate the entire armor to cover his body. He just needed to borrow the power of the armor..
