The Sixth Prince's evaluation of Mark was like a mountain, pressing hard on the chests of everyone present.
The Twelve Ancient Aristocratic Families are the oldest and most powerful families in Tianshu Star, surpassing the second-level forces.
After thousands of years, the Twelve Ancient Aristocratic Families have never died out. There has never been one more or one less family. This shows how powerful they are!
The sixth prince's words seemed to regard Ye Fan as an equal to the ancient family.
However, if what the Sixth Prince said is true and Ye Fan really defeated the peerless demon king Ye Shenyue, then he really has the strength to challenge the ancient family!
Although Ye Fan only looks like he is only in the sixth level of the Transformation of God, the power he unleashes at his peak is enough to challenge a seventh-level tribulation master.
This kind of fighting power is shocking and unprecedented.
Suddenly, Ye Fan looked at Shangguan Yi from a distance and asked, "What? Do you want to fight again?"
"you!!!"
Shangguan Yi's face turned red, she was so ashamed and angry that she was speechless for a moment.
beat?
What a joke!
Even the crown prince Qin Xuance and the peerless demon king Ye Shenyue are no match for Ye Fan. What's the difference between him rashly challenging him and committing suicide?
At this moment, Shangguan Yi looked defeated and felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.
He originally wanted to make a big splash and shock the world, but he failed to succeed and fell into the sand.
He will definitely suffer the loss today!
"Boy, you are so cruel! I won't fight!" Shangguan Yi said angrily and helplessly.
Seeing Shangguan Yi give in, the passers-by who were watching were amazed.
"Tsk, tsk... I didn't expect that the young master of the Shangguan family would be so scared!"
"Twelve ancient aristocratic families, nothing more than that!"
"Yes! You don't even dare to fight, you just give in. What's the difference between this and being a coward?"
All kinds of ridicule reached Shangguan Yi's ears, which was particularly harsh.
Before, these passers-by had praised him in every possible way, wishing they could lift him to the sky.
But now, he has become the object of everyone's contempt, his status has plummeted, and he has fallen into the abyss.
The world of immortality is so realistic, strength is respected!
You are strong and everything you say is right!
You are weak, even breathing is wrong!
Shangguan Yi is not only weak, but also cowardly, which makes people look down upon.
Faced with these cynicisms, Shangguan Yi's face became increasingly ugly, but she finally held back and did not have an attack.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the spiritual crystal in Ruan Hongli's hand. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, looked at Ye Fan and asked: "This purple caltrop ice crystal is the one you drove out of the wasteland before, and it is better than my third brother's."
baby?"
"That's right!" Ye Fan nodded.
"Do you also know the art of observing rocks?"
The corners of Shangguan Yi's eyes twitched, and he felt a little more fearful.
Colleagues are enemies.
Since ancient times, there have been many families and schools that have studied wild rocks, but the most powerful among them is none other than the Shangguan family.
Relying on their unique secrets, the Shangguan family has accumulated astronomical amounts of spiritual crystals and treasures over thousands of years that are unimaginable to ordinary people.
Even the treasury of the Great Xia Dynasty may not be comparable to the Shangguan family's collection.
But now, Ye Fan suddenly showed his amazing ability to observe rocks, which made Shangguan Yi very concerned.
"I don't know the art of looking at rocks!"
Ye Fan's tone was very calm, and it definitely didn't sound like he was lying.
"Huh?"
Shangguan Yi raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: Could it be that Ye Fan was just unlucky enough to get this priceless purple caltrop ice crystal?
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Ye Fan spoke again: "Although I don't know the art of observing stones, your Shangguan family is just a person who has a vain reputation and has no eyesight, but you are nothing!"
"presumptuous!"
Shangguan Cheng next to him couldn't help it and yelled: "You brat, what the hell are you talking about? In terms of the art of observing stones, my Shangguan family ranks second, and no one dares to rank first. Who are you to dare to question it?"
?”
Shangguan Yi's face was also distorted, and his originally handsome appearance became ferocious, and his fists clenched loudly.
Previously, he was intimidated by Ye Fan's terrifying combat power and chose to give in.
But that's different now!
Ye Fan actually provoked the authority of the Shangguan family, and he couldn't bear it anymore.
Shangguan Yi's eyes were about to burst, he glared at Ye Fan fiercely, gritted his teeth and said: "Boy, since you don't like our Shangguan family's stone viewing skills, why don't you compete with me?"
"Oh? How to compete?" Ye Fan became interested.
"In the world of stone gambling, there is an unwritten rule. If you don't agree with the other party, then use wild rocks to compete! Both sides choose wild rocks, cut them out to see how many spiritual crystals are inside, and then compare who has a higher value! Just now in
Inside, I have already picked out three wild rocks. Next, you only need to pick three more wild rocks to compete with me!"
Having said this, Shangguan Yi paused, with a ruthless look in his eyes, and continued:
"Ye Fan, if you win, I will stab myself in the eyes, wash my hands in the golden basin from now on, and never dig a piece of waste stone again! But if you lose, you have to kneel down and apologize in front of everyone present, and acknowledge the power of the Shangguan family.
!”
…
As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Everyone present showed horrified expressions. They never expected that Shangguan Yi would bet so big!
"Xiaofan, don't bet with him!"
Ruan Hongli took Ye Fan's arm and said angrily: "This Shangguan Yi is so shameless! It is obviously your first time to come to Huangshifang, and you have never been exposed to stone gambling before. Shangguan Yi has been exposed to it since he was a child and has cut thousands of stones.
Tens of thousands, this is definitely not a fair duel!"
"That's right!" The Sixth Prince also nodded and said helpfully: "Brother Ye, there is absolutely no need for you to bet with Shangguan Yi!"
When Ye Fan heard this, he lowered his head and remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing his silent look, Shangguan Yi deliberately used the provocation method: "What? You don't dare anymore? Haha... weren't you very powerful just now, claiming that one person can defeat an aristocratic family? Now facing such challenges, you are scared
?”
"Who said I'm scared? I just bet with you!"
Ye Fan's voice resounded throughout the audience, and his words were filled with domineering will and incomparable pride.
"Okay, it's really refreshing!"
Shangguan Yi seemed to have succeeded in some conspiracy, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
If it were a one-on-one duel, he would not dare to be enemies with Ye Fan.
But when comparing the art of observing stones, he felt that he was no weaker than others.
Although Shangguan Yi is not very young, his attainments in stone observation have reached the pinnacle, and he is better than his predecessors.
Not to mention outsiders, even the ancestors within the Shangguan family are not as good as him.
Because of this, Shangguan Yi got the nickname "Fire Eyes". As long as he takes action, he will never miss it!
Seeing Ye Fan agree, the whole place was excited again.
Everyone's eyes were hot and excited, as if they were waiting for a good show.
Ruan Hongli was anxious. She quietly tugged on Ye Fan's sleeve and asked anxiously: "Xiao Fan, does it really not matter if you agree to the bet so hastily?"
"Don't worry, I'm sure!"
Ye Fan said, then turned to look at Shangguan Yi and said, "Just betting like this is a bit monotonous, why not add more bets?"
"What do you want?" Shangguan Yi asked.
"If a treasure can be found from the waste rock, it will naturally have its value! Whoever finds a treasure with a higher value will have to make up the difference as compensation, how about that?" Ye Fan said.
Upon hearing these words, Shangguan Yi was stunned, not expecting that Ye Fan would propose such a bet.
If the spiritual crystal issued by Shangguan Yi is worth 10 million black black stones and the one issued by Ye Fan is worth 8 million, then Ye Fan will have to pay compensation of 2 million.
But if Ye Fan doesn't offer anything, he will have to pay 10 million yuan.
To put it simply, this method is completely designed for the strong. The strong can exploit the weak unscrupulously, plunder more wealth, and drive the weak into the abyss.
After thinking about this, Shangguan Yi felt strong anger in his heart and felt unprecedented humiliation.
In his opinion, Ye Fan only made such a bet because he had the confidence to crush him severely.
How could the always proud Shangguan Yi endure this?
"good!"
Shangguan Yi shouted loudly: "Boy, since you are giving me money, then I have no reason to refuse! Just do as you say!"
"It's a deal! Now, go take a look at the three wild rocks you picked!" Ye Fan said.
…
Next, under the leadership of Shangguan Yi, everyone in the venue walked inside and came to three desolate rocks.
These three stones have different shapes, some are large and some are small, and clearly visible lines appear on their surfaces, criss-crossing them.
To a layman, there are no rules to this kind of pattern.
But for someone like Shangguan Yi, who has been dealing with wild rocks all year round, there are traces to follow. Coupled with the Shangguan family's undisclosed secrets, he can guess whether there is a treasure hidden in it with a very high accuracy.
Of course, the price of such high-grade wild stones is also very high, exceeding tens of millions, which is much more expensive than the purple caltrop ice crystals that Ye Fan sold before.
If the stone cutting fails and there is no spiritual crystal inside, it will be a huge loss, and some small and medium-sized sects will go bankrupt.
Therefore, in the world of stone gambling, there is also a legend of one sword in heaven and one sword in hell.
Ye Fan walked towards these three pieces of waste stone, and the dragon egg became hot again, bursting out with desire, which was stronger than the piece of waste he encountered before.
It can be seen from this that Shangguan Yi is quite capable, and there are definitely treasures hidden in these three desolate rocks.
However, Ye Fan is not afraid. Although he does not know the art of observing rocks, the dragon egg is like a detector that can detect whether there are treasures hidden in the wild rocks.
Based on this alone, Ye Fan is already invincible.
On the other side, seeing Ye Fan standing by the three wild rocks, Shangguan Yi frowned and asked, "Boy, why are you staying here? Why don't you go pick out the wild rocks?"
"Don't worry, let's wait for you to cut the stone first!" Ye Fan said calmly.
"Okay! Today you are lucky enough to see the unparalleled skills of our Shangguan family!"
With a thought, Shangguan Yi summoned a dozen knives of different sizes, which were more professional than the tool knives used by the stone cutter before.
Immediately afterwards, Shangguan Yi picked up several knives and walked towards the nearest barren rock.
