As soon as Bai Bing finished speaking, everyone in the hall froze, their gazes turning in unison toward Mountain-Suppressing Peak Master Qin Gang.
Everyone knew that Bai Bing and Qin Gang had already wagered against each other twice.
Heavenly Evolution Peak Master Huang Zhen blinked. A moment ago, he had been certain Bai Bing was making a wild boast. How could Yang Jing possibly break through to the Qi-Nourishing Realm in just a few days?
But now that Bai Bing had proposed a wager herself, his conviction began to waver.
In their previous two wagers, Bai Bing's chances had seemed slim, yet she had won decisively both times. Such confidence could not have come from nowhere.
Meeting Bai Bing's calm gaze, Qin Gang furrowed his brows slightly.
He kept feeling that something was wrong, but he could not put his finger on it.
As he saw it, Yang Jing's foundation was still shallow. There was no way he could overcome the bottleneck of the Qi-Nourishing Realm on such short notice.
This was clearly a wager he could not lose.
Yet the more certain victory seemed, the more puzzled he became. Bai Bing had always been levelheaded. Why would she give away precious treasures for nothing?
Gaze after gaze settled on Qin Gang. His expression remained unchanged, but inwardly, waves surged and seas churned as he weighed the gains and losses over and over.
Seeing him ponder in silence, Bai Bing said mildly, "Since you don't wish to wager, Senior Brother Qin, forget it."
That casually delivered remark instead made Qin Gang resolve himself.
No matter how he considered it, he could find no reason he would lose.
Even taking ten thousand steps back, if he truly lost, that would mean Yang Jing had successfully broken through to the Qi-Nourishing Realm.
