Did His Outstanding Credibility Come Back to Bite Him?
Ma Liang said, "Senior Brother Xinghe, your situation back then was exactly this second type of betting model!"
When this betting model was first announced, even you, Senior Brother Xinghe, had no idea how sensational it was across the entire Four Continents... Countless spirit-hunting Senior Brother Xinghe gave you a thumbs up...
The Cui Clan was utterly impressed...
Because in the entire history of the Cui Clan, there have only been three instances of a betting model...
Therefore, this betting model is practically a legend in the world of spirit hunting.
In the normal first model, the amount of spirit stones given is a consultation fee, regardless of the amount. After the spirit-seeking master provides advice and suggestions, and the spirit mine is eventually opened, the spirit-seeking master will not be responsible for the outcome.
Even if you find a dead mine, the spirit-hunting master won't take responsibility; at most, he'll just ruin his own reputation.
But this betting model is completely different...
The so-called betting model involves both risk and reward...
The various factions aren't asking you to contribute a certain amount of spirit stones; they're directly offering to split the profits...
Similarly, in the betting mode, the Spirit Master is also responsible for the final outcome of the spirit mine.
This betting model could be described as having the highest risk but also the highest reward!
Because under the betting model, once the spirit mine is mined, the spirit ore that appears must be exactly the same as what the spirit-seeking master said; the price can only go up, not down!
If the spirit ore unearthed is less than the level described by the spirit-seeking master, then the spirit-seeking master will have to make up the difference, and will not receive any of the previously agreed-upon profit sharing!
It is precisely because of this situation that even the Cui Clan has only engaged in gambling three times in history, and of these three times, the Cui Clan only won twice. In one of those times, the spirit mine they mined did not reach the corresponding level, and in the end Cui Clan not only got nothing, but also had to compensate for the losses!
Even the Clan Head Cui stated that, unless there was no other choice, no one in the Cui Clan would be allowed to gamble with anyone again!
After all, with the Cui Clan's Geomancy and Spirit-Seeking Art, they could easily provide guidance to people and earn a stable income; there was no need to gamble so much!
However, higher risks also naturally mean higher potential returns!
The rise of the Cui Clan back then also stemmed from those two bets, which made the Cui Clan's Geomancy and Spirit-Seeking Art famous throughout the world.
However, over the years, even the Cui Clan has not dared to easily open a betting pool with others again!
Because whether this thing is profitable or not is unknown, but if something goes wrong, it's really all over!
The news that Zheng Yu and other prodigies had entered the Vast Heaven Holy Land was known throughout the Four Continents, and when Zheng Yu and the others left the Vast Heaven Holy Land, it caused a sensation throughout the Four Continents!
The entire ghost hunting community is in an uproar!
It's been so many years since we've seen a bet... This time, Chu Xinghe actually chose to bet? And ten times at once!
Chu Xinghe was completely dumbfounded with anger... When did I choose to gamble?
I don't even know what a betting arrangement is, how could I possibly choose to bet against someone?
But before Chu Xinghe could speak, Ma Liang said, "Back then, Senior Brother Xinghe, you slammed your fist on the table and declared that this round would definitely be a huge profit. If it didn't reach the level of a huge profit, I would be held responsible!"
This is a bet. What does "I am solely responsible" mean? It means that if the target isn't met, I, Chu Xinghe, will pay the full amount...
In this situation, the bet automatically starts. According to the rules, Zheng Yu should sign Heavenly Dao Contract with Senior Brother Xinghe. If Senior Brother Xinghe wins the bet, Zheng Yu will give Senior Brother Xinghe the percentage that is due according to the Heavenly Dao Contract.
Similarly, if you, Senior Brother Xinghe, lose the bet, then under normal circumstances you must compensate Zheng Yu the amount he is entitled to according to the terms of the Heavenly Dao Contract!
Hearing Ma Liang's words, Chu Xinghe almost jumped up excitedly... "That's right... Ma Liang, what you said makes sense... We should sign Heavenly Dao Contract according to the rules..."
But we didn't sign Heavenly Dao Contract. Under these circumstances, what makes you think I, Chu Xinghe, made a bet with someone?
Before Chu Xinghe could speak, Zheng Yu said, "Senior Brother Xinghe, Ma Liang is right. According to the rules, Heavenly Dao Contract should be signed, but that depends on the person. Why does Senior Brother Xinghe need Heavenly Dao Contract to bind us? If Senior Brother Xinghe really wins the bet, it's like he's guiding us to make a fortune. How could we forget Senior Brother Xinghe!"
"And if Senior Brother Xinghe, given his reputation, how could he possibly renege on his debt?"
It has to be said that Zheng Yu's words were absolutely correct. Not to mention the various factions of the Three Continents, even the Evil Spirits of the Evil Shadow Continent couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Why is it said that Heavenly Dao Contract must be signed when making a bet?
There's no way around it; those who can gamble on this are definitely super-large mines. You can't even talk about gambling with anyone else; even if this bet were with the Cui Clan, all the geniuses would absolutely not hesitate to have them sign Heavenly Dao Contract with everyone!
After all, there are too many resources involved, and without the Heavenly Dao Contract to restrain you, it would be difficult to explain yourself if you started arguing.
But with Senior Brother Xinghe?
Many of the prodigies laughed until their eyes were filled with tears of joy...
Really? Nobody thinks Senior Brother Xinghe would renege on his debt?
Don't even mention us prodigies... Go ask the various Evil Lords of the Evil Shadow Continent if they dislike Senior Brother Xinghe, and they might give different answers.
But if you ask them whether Chu Xinghe would renege on his debts, even the Evil Spirit Clan said that Chu Xinghe would never renege on his debts!
Therefore, in terms of credibility, everyone's trust in Senior Brother Xinghe even surpasses that in the Heavenly Dao Contract!
Because the Heavenly Dao Contract, though seemingly flawless, was still found to have a weakness by the King of Ideas Zheng Yu last time, wasn't it?
But Senior Brother Xinghe's credibility is definitely much higher than that of the Heavenly Dao Contract.
From the merger of the Four Continents until now, go and ask around, in all the transactions with Vast Heaven Holy Land, whether open or covert, has Vast Heaven Holy Land ever owed anyone anything?
When you do business with anyone else, you worry that they might have some kind of ulterior motive...
But if you're doing business with the Vast Heaven Holy Land, who would worry that the Vast Heaven Holy Land might have some kind of conspiracy against you?
Don't even mention that the Vast Heaven Holy Land has any schemes against you; you wouldn't dare to scheme against the Vast Heaven Holy Land at all!
Why did the Evil Lords of the Evil Shadow Continent offer various terms of surrender and gifts to the Vast Heaven Holy Land when the Four Continents were merged?
This is also because of the credibility of the Vast Heaven Holy Land... If the other parties tell the Evil Spirit Clan, we will absolutely not take action against you, don't worry...
We'll have to be on high alert when we go back to the Evil Shadow Continent... After all, do you really believe everything people say?
Are you fucking naive?
However, the credibility of the Vast Heaven Holy Land is undeniable. The Vast Heaven Holy Land has stated that as long as the Evil Spirits abide by the rules, the Vast Heaven Holy Land will at least temporarily refrain from taking action against the Evil Spirit Clan. Therefore, the Evil Lords believe it completely!
Not only because of its credibility, but also because of the strength of the Vast Heaven Holy Land!
The Vast Heaven Holy Land never needs to hide anything. If they say they want to kill you, they can just tell you directly, "I'm going to kill you." So what can you do even if you find out?
Other forces may act one way in public and another in private, but the Vast Heaven Holy Land is so powerful that it doesn't need any schemes or tricks at all. Any schemes or tricks will be crushed instantly in the face of absolute strength.
So Zheng Yu said, "What Heavenly Dao Contract? We're signing Heavenly Dao Contract with Senior Brother Xinghe?"
I, Zheng Yu, swear to the heavens that under those circumstances, let alone signing the Heavenly Dao Contract, even thinking about it would be disrespectful to Senior Brother Xinghe Zheng Yu!
Senior Brother Xinghe said it existed, we assumed it did... Since Senior Brother Xinghe he wanted to make a bet, we followed his bet requirements!
What Heavenly Dao Contract? It's completely unnecessary!
Whether Heavenly Dao will betray us or not, we don't know, but could Senior Brother Xinghe really betray us?
As Zheng Yu finished speaking, all the prodigies who had bought the spirit mine nodded in agreement, indicating that Zheng Yu was right.
Senior Brother Xinghe's reputation surpasses even the Heavenly Dao Contract!
Throughout history, the Heavenly Dao Contract has been known as the most reliable contract in the world. However, at this moment, everyone knows that from now on, the credibility of the Heavenly Dao Contract will be ranked below that of Chu Xinghe.
Because the Heavenly Dao Contract might be broken, but Chu Xinghe promised you, so you absolutely don't need to worry about anything!
Chu Xinghe remained silent at this moment... his face was indifferent... and he only wanted to die...
No wonder Tieniu hesitated to speak back then; it turns out it was because of this...
I never dreamed that I would suffer such a loss because of my lack of credibility!
Everyone else suffers because they're untrustworthy, how could I, Chu Xinghe, suffer because I'm too trustworthy?
If I had known what a bet was... if Zheng Yu had mentioned the Heavenly Dao Contract even once, I, Chu Xinghe, would never have fallen for this damn scam!
I was just trying to lose money and make amends to everyone back then...
So what happened? They ended up betting against each other?
I don't even know what a betting agreement is...
At this moment, Zheng Yu said to Senior Brother Xinghe, "Don't worry, we agreed on 30%, and that's what we'll do. Senior Brother Xinghe us all make a fortune this time, and he even took on the risk for all of us through the betting agreement. Under these circumstances, we will absolutely not let Senior Brother Xinghe earn less!"
Not only Zheng Yu, but all the geniuses who bought spirit ore were in the same boat at this moment.
What the heck? You're asking why the other parties chose to withdraw even though they knew about the performance-based agreement?
Didn't they know that Chu Xinghe would cover for them?
Wang Daoquan, who failed to purchase the spirit ore, retorted... "Don't use your brain to think. Could you please use your cerebellum to think for a moment?"
We all understand Chu Xinghe's bet, but we also need to consider whether our own resources are sufficient!
Is this spirit mine speculation going to the point where we want to withdraw? Or is it because we can't compete with Martial Emperor City for resources?
Do you think we don't understand the opportunity to make a fortune? But if you want to seize such a huge opportunity, you first need to allocate a lot of resources.
Even the Martial Emperor City has to grit its teeth to afford such an exorbitantly priced spirit ore. How could our Jade Void Palace possibly compete? We have to sell everything we own to beat the Martial Emperor City on price!
At this moment, many of the bigwigs of Vast Heaven Holy Land had smiles on their faces... You should know that they were also aware of this betting agreement.
To be honest, only Chu Xinghe in the Four Continents would dare to take on such a huge bet, and only Vast Heaven Holy Land could remain silent in the face of such a terrifying bet!
At this point, the Grand Elder said, "See? I told you we should have just Watch Quietly as Things Change..."
We don't know if the other parties made a huge profit this time, but our Vast Heaven Holy Land alone obtained 30% of all the spirit mines!
Chu Xinghe didn't know what others were thinking, but he declared that he hadn't lost this round yet!
Although I got 30% of the spirit mine, I lost way more resources... Look, my Misfortune Compass is still there... Hey... what the hell does it mean that the Misfortune Compass suddenly stopped spinning?
This isn't right!
