Chapter 985: Layout in advance (Happy New Year's Day)
Gambling is really the fastest way to make money, if you can control your own wins and losses on a certain course, it is a profitable means to make money, and it happens that he can control your wins and losses on a certain course.
Tomorrow's semi-finals, the competition will be more intense, the attention of each game is high, and the strength of the cultivators will not be too different, and the number of unpredictable wins and defeats will be more, which will greatly mobilize the enthusiasm of the cultivators to participate in the gambling handicap, and at the same time, the number of matches will be less, and the funds will be more concentrated.
If the profitability of today's bets can be continued tomorrow, then the harvest will be more, and it is not impossible for the spirit stones to be doubled.
However, tomorrow's semi-finals are difficult to operate, every cultivator is a leader of the younger generation, most of them are disciples of famous sects, everyone has a trick to press the bottom of the box, and no one can predict the final result before they take it out.
What's more, the disciples of the famous sects have a lot of family backgrounds, who can be sure that they don't have a forbidden pill that instantly increases their strength? Even if the quality of the pill is not as good as his, it is still very useful.
There are too many unstable factors in the semi-finals, and it is difficult to manipulate the results of the competition, so you have to plan carefully, first to ensure that you will not lose money, and then try to make profits.
"Do you want to take out some of the forbidden techniques in the Sansheng Jade Jane? You can also get some forbidden techniques from Hei Shuai, combined with the forbidden pills, the success rate of manipulating the ratio will definitely be greatly improved!" Xiao Cheng frowned and muttered to himself, and immediately laughed at himself, isn't this a bit too eager for quick success?
However, the world competition has only been held once for many years, how could he miss such a good opportunity, if he wants to form his own big force from scratch, it is not possible to use some special means.
What's more, his own manipulation is also in disguise to help the Eastern cultivators deal with the Western cultivators, and help the righteous path powerhouses to deal with the evil path powerhouses, and he only earns a few spirit stones, which is actually quite great to say, Xiao Cheng comforted himself.
There are a lot of forbidden techniques in the Sansheng Jade Jane, he has never used them, he only chooses the most suitable ones, and now he has the Supreme Anode Reversal, the Three-Element Combination and the Forbidden Sword Technique, which is enough, and these forbidden techniques are the most suitable for him.
Although the forbidden technique in the Sansheng Jade Slip is not as good as the forbidden technique in the Nine Xuan Immortal Sutra, it is also extremely good, with a wide range of adaptability, and it is a waste to put it away, it is better to take it out for profit, anyway, the income is definitely greater than the investment.
Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng already had a plan for tomorrow's semi-finals, sorted out all the forbidden techniques in the sea of knowledge, called the dead dog that was "hibernating", and took out a few useful forbidden techniques.
Xiao Cheng worked hard for a few hours, sorted out all the information about the strong people who will participate in the competition tomorrow, selected the games with a high degree of attention, and wrote the names of the selected strong people on paper.
Tomorrow's semi-finals are numbered, with fifteen matches in each group and fifteen big rings, with breaks in between, so tomorrow's betting strategy will be different from this morning.
This morning is a one-time investment bet, and only after the end of the preliminary round will the spirit stone be recovered, tomorrow there is enough time to operate, it is possible to invest the spirit stone many times, after the first round of investment, the spirit stone will be recovered, and then the spirit stone will be divided into multiple parts into the second round of competition, continue the third round and the fourth round......
There will be four rounds of tomorrow's semi-finals, with eight matches per group in the first round, four in the second round, two in the third round, and the fourth round for the finals.
The funds have been invested four times, and the principal and interest have been circulated four times, even if the income is only 20%, after four rounds of competition, the total funds can be doubled. What's more, the income is by no means more than two percent, and he has a special arrangement in the second round, just in the second round, the income can be doubled, and the profit will not be lost.
Xiao Cheng deduced tomorrow's betting strategy twice again to ensure that there was no problem, so he called Tu Yuanjia and Nie Mingfeng and instructed: "Tomorrow's semi-finals are very important, this is the investment strategy for tomorrow's semi-finals, you two take care of it."
This is a forbidden technique, a forbidden elixir, a healing elixir, etc., the two of you will hand them over to the strong people on the list according to the notes at the back of the list, and be sure to hand them over to these people with your own hands, and say that they will do their best to fight tomorrow.
Just like yesterday, don't let them know who we are, they won't refuse these benefits anyway, and if they ask, you will say what you said yesterday.
Well, there is still half an afternoon and a night to go, so go ahead. The forbidden art on the white paper, you can all write it down and use it for your own use, you're welcome!"
Nie Mingfeng and Tu Yuanjia took the pill and more than a dozen forbidden techniques, looking at the forbidden techniques on the white paper, their eyes lit up, it was the first time they had seen so many forbidden techniques, and there were several forbidden techniques that were useful to them, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed and a little excited.
"Thank you, my lord, my subordinates will do their best to complete the task!" The two of them arched their hands to Xiao Cheng, and said excitedly, with these forbidden techniques, their strength immediately increased a lot, they really couldn't believe that Xiao Cheng could come up with so many forbidden techniques at one time.
"You're welcome, you're willing to give it to others, of course your own people won't be stingy!" Xiao Cheng waved his hand, shook his head and smiled. After the two of them left the cabin excitedly, Xiao Cheng looked sideways at the sunset on the horizon in a daze, and exhaled a breath of turbidity, what will tomorrow be like?
......
In the courtyard of Penglai Inn, the afterglow of the sunset is sprinkled on the cyan steps, and the surrounding grass and trees are gilded with a layer of gold by the sunset, making the whole courtyard solemn.
Qingzhen Ming had a bitter face, constantly wandering in the courtyard, looking a little anxious, looking at the wooden door close at hand, he never dared to knock, he didn't know what to say.
Lu Wanming came to the courtyard and saw that Qing Zhenming was also there, and said in surprise: "Hey, Zhenming, why are you outside the door of Uncle Xiao, I've been looking for you for a long time, let's go, let's drink together, Senior Brother Si will also go, celebrate the success of the brothers in the semi-finals."
Hehe, this time our Sword Pavilion has a long face, there are fifteen people who have reached the semi-finals, Kunlun is only four, Emei is only seven, we are more than the sum of these two sects!"
The Sword Pavilion has the most strong people who have entered the semi-finals, which has a lot to do with Xiao Cheng's manipulation of the competition, since it is to give away benefits, of course, give it to his own sect first.
After Lu Wanming finished speaking, he saw that Qing Zhenming's face was not quite right, and he was a little puzzled, and asked, "Hey, what's wrong with you, Zhenming, why are you sad?"
"Hey......" Qing Zhenming sighed and explained with a bitter face: "Wan Ming, I am the winner of the thirteenth group, and I am in the same group as Uncle Xiao in the semi-finals, if I win the first round tomorrow, I will meet Uncle Xiao in the second round, what do you say I should do?"
"Uh...... I really haven't thought about it, but it's not a big deal, it's good to lose to Uncle Xiao, you can't beat it anyway! It's a good thing to meet Uncle Xiao, and if you lose, Uncle Xiao won't hurt you!" Lu Wanming smiled gloatingly.
Qing Zhenming shook his head, and looked at Lu Wanming with such a stupid look: "Why don't you open your mind, if it's really as simple as you think, I'm still annoying."
The key is how to fight tomorrow, according to the strength, I have absolute confidence to agree to the first game, what should I do if I meet Uncle Xiao later?
Admitting defeat on the field, it will damage the prestige of the little uncle, others will say that the little uncle bullies the young with the elders, and he has already discussed it to let me admit defeat. If you make a move, it will be disrespectful to Uncle Xiao, and if Uncle Xiao wins, it will still attract gossip.
Therefore, the best way is to lose in the first round, but I am unwilling, I can defeat that guy, but I have to lose to him...... What do you think I'm going to do?"
Lu Wanming scratched his head, he always felt that Qing Zhenming's worries were superfluous, some fuss was made, it was a matter of course to win Qing Zhenming with the strength of the little uncle, who would gossip behind his back?
"It shouldn't matter about this, victory or defeat in the ring depends on strength, and besides, Uncle Xiao won't mind if you make a move on him, you think too strictly, right?" Lu Wan Ming smiled indifferently.
At this time, the wooden door creaked open, Xiao Cheng walked out of the meditation room, and glanced at Qing Zhenming with a smile, he listened to the conversation between the two just now.
Xiao Cheng patted Qing Zhenming's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, try your best tomorrow to fight, what others say, what is the matter, Uncle Shi is very optimistic about you." Let's go, didn't Wan Ming come to call me to drink and celebrate?"
Qing Zhenming smiled, got Xiao Cheng's reply, and his heart was worried, in fact, what he said to Lu Wanming was half-true and half-false, in essence, he didn't know how to face Xiao Cheng in the ring, so he wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to speak.
Lu Wanming hurriedly nodded and arched his hand: "Yes, the little uncle is as wise as a torch, the junior nephew is here to invite the little uncle, everyone is here, just waiting for you!"
......
In the small courtyard of Mansion 18, a red-haired young man with a knotted muscle was carefully wiping the cross sword in his hand, his face was calm, and his eyes occasionally flashed a trace of silver, as bright as the stars in the sky.
This person is Jace, who is known as the genius of the double cultivation of fighting spirit and magic in the West, and he will fight with Xiao Cheng, who is very famous in the East, tomorrow, the pressure in his heart is not small, he will not be as stupid as the Cowell who caused the death, thinking that Xiao Cheng is just in vain.
At this time, several heavy footsteps sounded outside the courtyard, and a sturdy blond young man wearing a gorgeous magic armor walked into the courtyard, his breath was extremely calm, and he walked like a moving mountain.
Hearing the footsteps, Jace paused with his right hand wiping the Great Cross Sword, did not look up, continued to wipe the blood on the blade, and did not look at the future at all, and smiled lightly: "Oh, it turned out to be Brooke, did you come to me to show that you are happy?
As the strongest dragon knight of the younger generation, no one dares to take him lightly, but Jace never looks at him squarely, Brooke doesn't care about Jace's rudeness, knowing that Jace is still haunted by the failure of the duel five years ago, and said with a smile: "She's fine, thank you Jace for your concern." ”
"In that duel five years ago, if you didn't have that dragon, you asked yourself if you could beat me?Margaret loved me, but I lost her...... ridiculously" Jace said coldly, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.
"If there is no dragon, I am not your opponent!" Brooke confessed, and the words changed: "However, I am not here tonight to discuss what happened five years ago, but to discuss tomorrow's competition, you will meet Xiao Cheng, a famous powerhouse in the East in the first game tomorrow, I hope you can kill him!"
