Chapter 1036: Two Encounters Make Us Acquaintances
There were at least thirty balls on the billiards table, and more could be added after each round until the number reached a maximum of five hundred. Each ball was numbered, and players had to hit the ball with the lowest number first. How many balls they sank with each shot depended entirely on their skill. In addition to the total number of balls they sank, the number sunk with each shot also counted toward their score.
