Chapter 1: Crossing Over into the System

  "Su Guang, how about we make a bet?" Huang Yu said calmly, looking at him with an indifferent tone, seemingly unaffected by Su Guang's previous sarcasm.

  "What are you betting on?" Su Guang looked at Huang Yu with a condescending attitude, without putting him in his eyes at all.

  "This is Jade Stone Lane, of course we're here to gamble on stones." said Huang Yu.

  "Alright, I'll bet with you." Su Guang's face lit up with an even brighter smile, as if he had already won, while Huang Yu seemed to have lost for sure. "This is my Su family's Jade Stone Workshop, the rules can be set by you, don't say that I, Su Guang, am unfair and taking advantage of you."

  "The rules are simple, each person selects ten pieces of raw stone, whoever's raw stone yields the highest value with the least expense wins, how about it?" Huang Yu looked at him with a still calm tone.

  "Alright, how about everyone acts as witnesses?" Su Guang said with a nod, addressing the crowd present.

  "Good."

  "Good." The crowd cheered.

  "It's interesting, don't mind if I join in?" At this time, a purple-clothed young man walked in, about twenty years old, with a jade-like face and extraordinary temperament, with a dragon-patterned treasure sword hanging from his waist. This young man must have an unusual background.

  "It's more interesting with more people, I naturally have no opinion." Huang Yu saw that this young man was not ordinary and didn't seem to be a deceitful person, so he wouldn't refuse. However, what worried him in his heart was that if there weren't many high-quality jade stones in the original stone, wouldn't his mission fail?

  But thinking carefully, the task only said that it is necessary to win more than 10 pieces of jade with a quality of 7 or above, so the bet should also be counted as winning. If you can win the entire Su family jade stone workshop, it will definitely count as completing the task.

  Su Guang was extremely arrogant, so he naturally wouldn't refuse the purple-clothed youth's proposal. One more person or one less person didn't make a difference to him. His Flowing Light Eyes technique had already reached the small success realm, and Su Guang was extremely confident in it. Apart from those old guys, among the younger generation, there was absolutely no one who could surpass him.

  "It's okay, but it's no fun just betting like this. We need to add some stakes." Su Guang said with a smile.

  "Good." The boy in purple nodded in agreement.

  "I think this way, the loser takes out ten times the value of the jade stone chosen by the winner as a bet. What do you two think?" Huang Yu's tone was still calm.

  "I have no problem." The purple-clothed youth looked at Huang Yu, seemingly feeling a bit surprised.

  "Ten times too little, how about a hundred times?" Su Guang shook his head and said, "I think Huang Yu, as the master of the Huang family, you can't even afford to gamble on this, can you?"

  "I naturally have no problem with it, let alone a mere hundredfold, even if it's a thousandfold, I wouldn't bat an eye." Huang Yu said with a big laugh.

  Without showing the expected expression, Su Guang was somewhat surprised and said coldly: "Good, I hope you can still laugh later."

  At this time, an old man came out, wearing simple clothes, with white hair and beard, but his face was ruddy.

  "Interesting, interesting! Why don't I just act as a witness then?" The old man stroked his beard and said.

  "Heavens! This is Pan Shan Shi Wang, the elder of the Jade Stone Alliance. How did he come here?"

  "Have seen Pan Mountain Shi Wang."

  "Have seen Shi Wang."

  Since Pan Shan was willing to act as a witness, Su Guang naturally couldn't ask for more. Seeing the appearance of Pan Shan Shi Wang, Su Guang was also shocked in his heart, but he quickly calmed down and said.

  Although the Su family is powerful in Liu Lin Town, they still dare not underestimate Pan Shan Shi Wang, the elder of the Jade Stone Alliance. The Su family cannot afford to provoke an elder of the Jade Stone Alliance, and even if the three major families of Liu Lin Town were to join forces, they would still be no match.

  Shi Wang? Huang Yu was also surprised, didn't expect that a Shi Wang had actually come, and it was the elder of the Jade Stone Alliance. This Jade Stone Alliance seemed to be extremely powerful, just by looking at Su Guang's appearance, you could tell.

  "And you? Does old man have the honor of being your witness?" Pan Shan Shi Wang looked at Huang Yu and the purple-clothed youth.

  Why so polite? Huang Yu was shocked, this absolutely wasn't directed at himself, a Stone King, with such a high status, yet he spoke like that, obviously seeking the opinion of that purple-clothed youth. It seemed that purple-clothed youth wasn't simple, previously not using probing techniques to examine the information about the purple-clothed youth, didn't know what background this purple-clothed youth had. Seeing Pan Shan Stone King being so polite to the purple-clothed youth, Huang Yu became more and more curious, what identity did this youth have?

  Exploration

  Sima Yan said:

  Rank: Unknown.

  Cultivation: Unknown.

  It was actually undetectable, which made Huang Yu even more surprised. There were two reasons why the detection technique couldn't detect anything: one was that the opponent's level or cultivation was too high, exceeding his own limits; the other was that there was some special treasure on the opponent's body that prevented him from detecting it.

  And this young man's surname is Sima, a rare surname. However, since he had just arrived in this world and didn't understand many things, what the Sima family was all about, or to say, which big families in the entire Zhongyuan country used Sima as their surname.

  "Since it's Shi Wang senior, I naturally have no opinion. I think Shi Wang senior will be fair and just, and won't disappoint everyone." Sima said.

  "The kid is arrogant."

  "Ignorance."

  "How dare you question Master Panshan, truly unaware of the heavens and the earth."

  Everyone thought that Panshan Stone King would get angry, but unexpectedly, Panshan Stone King had a smile on his face and said: "You three can rest assured, I, Panshan Stone King, will not joke about my own reputation. If I couldn't even do this, then I wouldn't be worthy of the title of Stone King."

  "Now, are there any more questions from you three? If not, then I will declare the start." said Pan Shan Shi Wang to the three.

  "It's all gone."

  "Seniors can start."

  "Alright, now I declare that this gamble on the precious stone has officially begun. The time limit is one incense stick." said Pan Shan Shi Wang with a wave of his hand.

  As soon as the voice fell, the three of them came to the pile of original stones at a moderate pace and searched carefully.

  And Huang Yu found a piece of raw jade from the very beginning, which was that bowl-sized, full of pits and wormholes, unremarkable raw jade. In fact, Huang Yu was clear that as long as he had this piece of raw jade, it would be enough to win against them. However, who would disdain their own money? After all, the stakes were one hundred times the value of the jade stone they opened, which means that the more jade stones they opened, the higher the value. The Su family was the archenemy of the Huang family, and Huang Yu would not show mercy. As for the purple-clothed young man Sima Yan, his status was extremely high, and he came from a powerful background, so this little thing should not be taken seriously.

  After selecting the first piece of ore, Huang Yu used the detection technique to find the second target.

  As for the Golden Ancient Eye Technique, Huang Yu didn't plan to expose it unless absolutely necessary. After all, the Golden Ancient Eye Technique was a Heaven-tier secret method that many people coveted. If he were to attract powerful individuals who would pry into his affairs, it wouldn't be good. On the other hand, the Scouting Technique didn't have any risk of exposure, so Huang Yu wasn't worried.
