"Master, Master Miao has already announced that he will have a competition with you tomorrow at the ancient jade event venue."
The subordinate said again.
"What? Tomorrow?"
Hong Qi's face turned pale, as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. Then, his face became a little tearless. ??
Originally, Hong Qi was still thinking about whether to leave Wuzong City, return to Chiqiu Sect, and pretend to practice in seclusion to escape this disaster.
However, Master Miao's challenge is tomorrow. There is no way he can leave Wuzong City overnight. That would be too obvious, and anyone with a discerning eye would know that he is hiding!
But, do we really want to compete with Master Miao?
You also know how much attention Master Miao's competition will attract. And he, Hong Qi, knows how much he weighs.
Maybe it was a coincidence or some other reason, but he was extremely lucky today. But tomorrow, he will not be so lucky.
If he simply lost to Master Miao, it wouldn't matter. But what if he couldn't even pick out a decent rough stone during the competition?
At that time, in front of so many people, he will be greatly embarrassed, and he may even lose his reputation and be laughed at by everyone for the rest of his life!
"Congratulations to Brother Hong, starting from tomorrow, you will become famous."
Su Chen smiled.
"Brother Su, stop joking and help me figure out what I should do to get rid of this competition."
Hong Qi said with a grimace.
"Turn it down? Why should you turn it down? This is a great opportunity to make a name for yourself."
Su Chen said.
"Alas! Brother Su, in fact, I know best how many pounds I have. If you ask me to compete with Master Miao, wouldn't I be humiliating myself?"
Hong Qi said with a grimace.
"What does that matter? Master Miao is already a lot older. Even if you lose to him, there is nothing to be ashamed of."
Su Chen said, "But even if you lose, being able to compete with such a master will make you very honored."
"That makes sense."
Hong Qi was obviously a little tempted by Su Chen's words. It was indeed as Su Chen said, so what if he lost?
As long as I can pick out a decent rough stone, I won't be embarrassed in this competition. On the contrary, I might actually become famous!
"Okay! Anyway, it's just a try, I'll give it a go!"
Hong Qi made up his mind, stood up suddenly, and walked out.
"Master, where are you going? The competition is tomorrow!"
His men chased after him and shouted.
"I'm going to find a quiet place to recharge my batteries so that I don't perform poorly tomorrow!"
Hong Qi's voice came from far outside the door.
…
The competition between Master Miao and Hong Qi soon spread in Wuzong City.
Regarding this matter, many people had a casual attitude of just watching the fun, because they knew that Hong Qi had no chance of winning Master Miao.
Early the next morning, Hong Qi showed up with dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he hadn't slept all night, and he kept circling in the hotel lobby anxiously.
"Brother Hong, you have to have confidence. Think about yesterday, the mutated Yao Immortal Ice Jade was so rare, and you won the bet, aren't you just a bad old man?
Boss, you can definitely do it."
Su Chen smiled.
"Okay, you're right, he's just a bad old man, so who is he to be afraid of?"
Hong Qi took a deep breath, put on a risk-taking attitude, and shouted loudly. It felt like whoever had the loudest voice would win.
"Okay, Xiao Yan'er, let's go!"
Su Chen smiled and waved to Shu Yan, and walked out of the inn with Hong Qi. This time, he must be helping Hong Qi, after all, this guy left a good impression on him.
"Hey, Brother Su, aren't your other companions going?"
Hong Qi asked curiously.
"They want to visit other places in Wuzong City. Xiao Yan'er can just go with me."
Su Chen smiled and touched Shu Yan's head. .??.
Soon, they arrived at the venue where the ancient jade event was held.
At this moment, in the gambling area of ​​the venue, a special hall has been vacated specifically for this competition.
In the center of the hall, Lan Kai and Master Miao were sitting on two chairs drinking tea, feeling the awed eyes from all directions, and feeling indescribably comfortable inside.
Master Miao half-squinted his eyes, with a flash of light flashing from time to time. Obviously, he was also very curious about Hong Qi who could identify the mutated Yao Immortal Ice Jade.
Soon after, Hong Qi and Su Chen entered the hall.
As soon as Lan Kai saw Su Chen, his eyes immediately turned into a smile. Obviously, Su Chen's appearance was what he expected.
To be honest, Lan Kai either didn't understand Hong Qi, or he was a complete prodigal with no ability at all. Lan Kai was the first one not to believe that Hong Qi had identified a mutated piece of Yao Immortal Ice Jade.
Therefore, when Lan Kai knew that the mutated Yao Immortal Ice Jade rough stone was purchased by Su Chen, he knew that the rough stone was probably identified by Su Chen himself and had nothing to do with Hong Qi.
In that case, if Hong Qi and Master Miao make an appointment to fight today, Su Chen will definitely come.
Sure enough, the moment he saw Su Chen appear, Lan Kai knew that he had guessed correctly.
"Ahem..."
Hong Qi saw that the eyes of the people around him were all focused on him. He took a deep breath and risked his life. After all, he was also the grandson of the majestic leader of the Red Qiu Sect, and he had seen some big scenes.
At that moment, Hong Qi walked directly in front of Master Miao, cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency, you are Master Miao, right? Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. I'm glad to meet you!"
Immediately afterwards, Hong Qi's next words were: "You are the one who wants to challenge me, right?"
puff!
Master Miao was drinking water, and it spurted out.
What do you mean I challenge you?
I am a highly respected master, but you are just a junior. It is your honor to compete with you. After all, it should be said to be a competition. How can you use the word challenge?
At this moment, Master Miao's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he looked at Hong Qi with a hint of displeasure.
Even Lan Kai, who was standing beside him, was suppressing a smile, with a look of contempt in his eyes. I have to say, this Hong Qi is really an idiot.
Although Hong Qi is the grandson of the leader of the Red Qiu Sect, and his status is higher than that of the son of the great elder of the Blue Light Sect, Lan Kai has always looked down on Hong Qi, just for this reason.
"Since Hong Qi is here, let's get started, Master Miao please."
Chapter completed!
