Ghost Catching System

The two people looked at Lu Shanhong.

Lu Shanhong said helplessly, ”You two masters, with my little savings, I won’t gamble with you.”

He couldn’t bear to become someone else’s bet.

The two old men stared at each other, neither willing to concede.

Someone suggested, ”How about this: both of you pay half of this stone’s price, and whoever wins the bet gets to keep it.”

Someone shook his head and said, ”If Master Du Mao wins, wouldn’t he lose out?”

Du Mao waved his hand, saying, ”No problem. I can afford bets worth billions, but whoever loses must admit openly that their skills are inferior and kowtow as a sign of respect.”

”Bring it on, who’s afraid of you?” He Yunpeng said coldly.

The crowd marveled, exclaiming that a master in the stone betting world indeed has wealth.

After each paid their respective dues, Master He snorted coldly, ”Cut it.”

Chu Hao didn’t want to watch anymore. After using the Wealth God’s Copper Coins, he could see the outcome of this bet. Despite the hundredfold wealth fortune being blurry, he could glean some impression by concentrating.

Chu Hao said, ”Old Guo, go check on the stone you picked.”

Old Guo was very interested in the bet between the two masters and said, ”Young friend, don’t be in a hurry, this is a rare opportunity to witness.”

Chu Hao shook his head and said, ”No need to watch, it’s going to be a draw.”

Old Guo turned his head, looking at him in astonishment.

Guo Yi, Guo Xin, and Shen Qian also looked at him, wondering how he knew it would be a draw.

Jiang Haotian, who had been watching Shen Qian, along with his brother, sneered disrespectedly upon hearing Chu Hao’s words.

So a draw just because you say so?

Jiang Junjie, who was closely following his master’s bet, couldn’t help but remark upon hearing this, ”Even if you’re skilled in stone betting, I don’t believe you can predict that accurately.”

Chu Hao retorted, ”I didn’t ask you to believe.”

Jiang Junjie said nothing.

Heartbroken, Old Tie.

Completely ignored.

Old Guo hesitated and said, ”Alright then, since the outcome will reveal itself soon enough, I’ll take the young friend to have a look.”

Soon, they arrived at the stone Old Guo had selected. It was exquisite, resembling a diamond with a rhombic shape. The surface gleamed with crystalline stone particles scattered throughout, exhibiting a rainbow of colors. Without cutting it, it appeared magnificent.

Old Guo, enchanted, said, ”It’s called Star Shine, a newly unearthed stone. I’m uncertain; young friend, please have a look for me.”

Old Guo deserves his name. The Star Shine stone is valued at 32 billion, one of the more expensive stones.

No wonder he sought consultation. Such a costly stone in a failed bet would be too much for anyone, hence Old Guo’s caution.

This time, Chu Hao’s hundredfold fortune didn’t reveal any fortune aura.

Shen Qian, standing by, wondered if this guy truly could bet on stones?

Allowing him to examine such a valuable stone.

Chu Hao spent 100,000 Pretentiousness Points to unlock a thousandfold wealth fortune.

Instantly, the fortune colors of all stones in sight were visible to him.

Star Shine, the stone’s color wasn’t dark red, but reasonably good. Cutting it wouldn’t result in a loss, but wouldn’t yield much profit either.

Chu Hao smiled and said, ”You can go for it, there’s definitely something in it, at least you’ll break even.”

Guo Xin said, ”Zhang Han, you better be right; this is a 30 billion stone, no joking matter.”

Chu Hao looked at Old Guo and said, ”Of course, if Old Guo trusts me.”

Old Guo nodded slightly, saying, ”Alright, I’ll buy it then.”

Shen Qian was shocked, ”A 30 billion stone, you just buy it when Chu Hao says so! Are you kidding?”

Guo Xin still said, ”Grandpa, shouldn’t you reconsider? This stone is too expensive; I’m worried.”

Old Guo replied, ”Xinxin, you don’t understand. Stone betting is like this. Even if Master He came to see, Grandpa would buy it anyway. After so many years in stone betting, I trust my own skills not to be too bad.”

At that moment.

An exclamation came from afar.

The result of the two masters’ bet was out.

”Snow Glass Wood stone type, and it’s the finest Snow Glass Wood, the price shot up.” People in the crowd exclaimed.

Someone cursed, ”Damn! A hairy deal? This stone was worth 20 billion; even being Snow Glass Wood doesn’t warrant 20 billion.”

”Oops, I almost forgot, it was a 19 billion stone.”

The onlookers were excited, asking, ”Is it out? Who won?”

”It seems, a draw!”

”What? How can it be a draw?”

”Snow Glass Wood stone is precious; if it’s a small piece, definitely a losing bet, but inside was a stone type with a diameter of 50 centimeters, valued around 20 billion.” Someone analyzed.

”So it means both masters ended in a draw?”

”Yes, a draw.”

The distant crowd engaged in spirited discussions.

However, the people near Chu Hao stared at him in disbelief.

Shen Qian, Guo Xin, Old Guo, and Guo Yi were all wide-eyed and slack-jawed, staring at him like a monster.

Chu Hao shrugged and said, ”As I expected, their match had no excitement.”

”Ding... Pretentiousness Achievement, Earned 60,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

”Ding... Pretentiousness Achievement, Earned 60,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

As expected?

Is that the point?

The point is, how could you possibly know it was a draw and say it so precisely?

Guo Yi gasped, saying, ”Zhang Han, young friend, I truly admire you. How did you do it?”

Chu Hao smiled without a word, appearing enigmatic.

Guo Yi became excited, ”Then father, about this stone?”

Old Guo laughed, ”I knew I wasn’t wrong; young friend is the most knowledgeable about stone betting.”

In the distance, Jiang Haotian and Jiang Haoyue were in a daze.

It was really a draw.

Jiang Haoyue exclaimed, ”It must be a coincidence; how can it be so precise? His luck must be good, a blind guess.”

Jiang Haotian didn’t think so, saying, ”Haoyue, let me ask you, in a hundred stone betting matches, how many end in a draw?”

Jiang Haoyue took a deep breath and said, ”Among the masters of stone betting, in one hundred matches, only one or two end in a draw on average.”

Jiang Haotian said coldly, ”So, you think he’s lucky?”

Jiang Haoyue was also stunned.

Could that guy really have a knack for stone betting?

At this time, from not far away, three people hurriedly approached. It was Master He and his two disciples.

Apparently, Jiang Junjie had informed his master of Chu Hao’s prediction.

Master He, emotionally charged, rushed from the crowd, saying, ”Young friend, young friend, I want to ask you something.”

Chu Hao didn’t want to waste his one-thousand-fold wealth fortune time; he wanted to check his stones, saying, ”I’m busy, wait a minute.”

Instantly, the mighty Master He Yunpeng was left standing aside, not daring to say a word.

Chu Hao was seen strolling rapidly through the large stones, not staying half a minute at each one before moving on; he even bypassed some altogether.

He thoroughly examined the stones in this area.

Standing in front of a stone worth 66 billion, he couldn’t help but be startled.
