Gambler Xiaocui / The Age of Monsters Is Over

Because you get paid regardless of winning or losing, and there's no danger to your life.

I heard it wasn't a small amount of money...

It seems the boxer's mother is sick or something.

Now that she's received this large sum of money, she won't need to come to this boxing ring anymore, since making money here isn't safe.

What a lucky guy.

Chapter 326 God of Gambling Xiao Cui

"Bump!!!"

"..."

"Huff... huff..."

Yaochuan Guang took a deep breath, placed her hands on her knees, and looked at her defeated opponent. "Impressive."

Yes, the other party is very powerful.

He was the strongest ordinary mortal that Yaochuan Guang had ever seen... not the absolute strongest, but among the strongest in his class.

Perhaps this is what it means to say, "I, Little Guang, would call you the strongest."

Then, Yaochuan Guang very politely reached out and helped his opponent up, saying, "If I weren't a magical girl, I definitely couldn't beat you."

Yaochuan Guang's opponent chuckled in response, acknowledging his own strength.

"Of course, because this is how I support myself and my seriously ill mother, so I've been training hard all along, just to win."

Upon hearing the other person's words, Yaochuan Guang looked at the woman in front of him, whose forehead was bleeding profusely from the blow she had delivered... Humans are just humans; they can't stop bleeding quickly.

The woman's eyes were filled with a tenacity for life and an expectation for the future, which made Yaochuan Guang suddenly realize that winning against her might not be a good thing.

"You..."

Yaochuan Guang hesitated for a moment, looking slightly apologetic, before asking, "Then shouldn't I have beaten you?"

"..."

"Hmm? Oh... so you didn't know."

The woman looked up at Yaochuan Guang, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "As expected of a magical girl, so kind... But thank you for your kindness."

As she said this, the female fighter chuckled.

"Because someone challenged me to a fight, I received a huge sum of money... enough to save my mother."

"Well, thank you so much, and thank you so much to Little Wind Boxing Arena... Hahaha, long live the 22nd Group!"

Seeing his opponent cheering while blood streamed from his head, Yaochuan Guang didn't know what to say, but...

Isn't this great?

"Congratulations!"

As he congratulated the other party, Yaochuan Guang realized that he seemed to have learned something more about the true nature of the 22nd Group...

It feels like this Monster Group is almost completely exonerated.

Thinking this, Yaochuan Guang touched his swollen face, then happily jumped off the stage and announced the good news to Hong and Cong Yu: "I won!"

In response, Hong, who was chatting with Cong Yu about the economic and livelihood development of Wind City, as well as prices and housing prices, looked up at Yaochuan Guang and said, "Oh! As expected."

As she spoke, Hong looked at the swelling on Yaochuan Guang's face that was disappearing and asked, "You know how to fight now, right? You shouldn't be fighting with your eyes closed anymore, right?"

This is Yaochuan Guang's bad habit.

Or rather, "closing your eyes when something suddenly flies towards you" is an innate human instinct that is difficult to overcome.

But magical girls should overcome this.

"Okay, you know how to play now. Do you need to play again?"

Faced with the confident Yaochuan Guang, Kurenai stood up and said, "Since you say you know how, then there's no need to fight... Most monsters aren't particularly good at hand-to-hand combat, so you don't need to train for more counter-attacks and variations."

It's definitely good if you can practice and learn it.

But I can only say that it's unnecessary...

It would be better to use this time to learn more things... It's not appropriate for a magical girl to specialize in just one thing, especially something like "fighting".

In fact, fighting techniques belong to the category of unorthodox or unorthodox methods.

Whether it's the "enemy of magical girls" or the "magical girls" themselves, it's actually a crooked path.

In other words, there's actually no need to learn it...

But the fear is that if you haven't learned it, but the enemy has, you won't know how to counter it or how to deal with it.

For magical girls, learning weapons is worse than learning martial arts.

The most righteous path, obviously, is through techniques...

The battles of magical girls are all about spiritual pressure (just kidding), it's a battle between magical power—as long as you have enough magical power and control, you can blow up the earth with magic bullets!

"Huh? Where are Little Lan and Xiao Cui?"

Yaochuan Guang asked this with such curiosity.

In response, Cong Yu pointed to a spot not far away...

Yaochuan Guang followed Cong Yu's finger and saw Little Lan and Xiao Cui watching several matches from the stands on the other side of the arena.

Both of them were staring at their phones at the same time.

He would occasionally glance up at the several arenas where fights were taking place.

What are they doing?

"..."

"Xiao Cui? Do you have any money left? Lend me some."

Xiao Cui Lantian Zhu gave Lantian Zhu a disdainful look. "Sister Little Lan is so silly... I have 90,000 now, I'll give you 40,000--"

Upon hearing Xiao Cui's words, Lantian Zhu was taken aback. Her expressionless face revealed a hint of surprise in her eyes. "Didn't Senior Hong only give each of us 50,000 points? You've almost doubled your money already?"

Xiao Cui nodded in response to Lantian Zhu's words, blinking as she observed the state and momentum of each boxer.

"Um."

"..." This is probably the difference between people. Xiao Cui earned 40,000, while Lantian Zhu lost 50,000... That's terrible.

"Hmm, never mind... Xiao Cui, you can have fun."

Lantian Zhu said this and decided not to waste the points... After Xiao Cui withdrew the money, he would ask her to buy him ice cream.

What to play?

Yaochuan Guang asked this question, curiously leaning closer.

Noticing Yaochuan Guang approaching, Lantian Zhu blinked at her and asked, "Little Guang, are you done? Did you win?"

"We won."

In response, Yaochuan Guang began to examine the betting pages on Xiao Cui and Little Lan's phones... The page displayed rows of arena conditions.

Each ring displays real-time odds, along with information about the upcoming fighters, their nicknames, and more...

Xiao Cui seems to click on the boxer's avatar to check their historical records and such.

In an instant, Yaochuan Guang understood what was going on, and she immediately began to wonder... Is it okay for a child to play with this?

Is this not a good idea?

Yaochuan Guang personally doesn't really like this kind of thing, and is destined not to touch it... but her personality, how should I put it?

He is somewhat strict with himself but lenient with others.

So I don't plan to say anything about Xiao Cui.

"Hmm..."

Xiao Cui pondered for a moment, glancing at a distant arena, then glanced at Yaochuan Guang and immediately understood what she was thinking.

"Sister Yaochuan, don't worry, I don't find this game very interesting. It's just something to pass the time."

As she said this, Xiao Cui placed all the remaining 90,000 points on the page onto a player with odds of 1:7.

In other words, if Xiao Cui guesses correctly...

Then she would get 630,000 points... equivalent to 630,000 yuan.

"Huh?"

Lantian Zhu looked over there with curiosity in his eyes, watching the player who had placed a large bet on Xiao Cui.

That was a player who didn't look very strong or tall.

"He's so thin, is it okay to bet on him to win?"

Yaochuan Guang asked this question with puzzlement, having now gained a basic understanding of what "magnitude" meant.

That very thin male athlete was in a completely different league from his opponent.

"Well, I actually never gamble."

As Xiao Cui said this, resting her chin on her hand, she said, "I'm just observing—the strength of the muscles, the fighting habits, the style..."

"These things can be seen in the video footage of the players' historical records, and I can also tell who will win."

"..." Is Zun Du fake Du?

Yaochuan Guang was a little skeptical, and then... he heard a gasp and an even louder roar coming from the audience not far away!

The announcer's voice also sounded very agitated.

"A complete upset! A massive upset!! The kid from Stone City!!! Defeated the uncrowned king of Little Wind Fighting Arena! A new champion has been born!!!"

"..." Yaochuan Guang: "Huh?"

Cong Yu: "!!!"

Xiao Cui, are you a born God of Gambling?!

Chapter 327 The Age of Monsters Has Ended

"Oh, so this is the tool that allows you to travel so quickly between Japan and Britain... is it essentially Giant Serpent's train?"

As he said this, he sat in the spacious chair with his legs crossed, and took a bite out of half of the cake that Cong Yu had given him to eat slowly.

At this very moment, five Monsters were sitting on Cong Yu 'Jormungandr Train, waiting for Cong Yu to arrange for them to go to Wind City.

She looked very well-behaved.

"Yes, the Jormungandr Train... I invited you aboard, and you were actually quite unafraid it might be a trap. I truly admire you."

Cong Yu said this, holding a cup of coffee and drinking it slowly. He looked at "dian", "tong", "hemp", "filial piety" and "le".

At this moment, the Jormungandr Train is consuming "fuel" and moving towards Wind City, or rather... leaping.

"Le" responded with a smile, saying, "Haha, isn't trust what friends should be about?"

"Besides, I don't think we're completely defenseless just because we're inside the snake's mouth... we can still struggle to some extent."

In other words, on the one hand, they trusted Cong Yu, and on the other hand, they didn't think that "getting on the bus with Cong Yu would mean certain death."

Cong Yu, feeling guilty, looked away.

"Hey! No way!"

"Le" exclaimed in surprise, shouting, "Did I guess right? Is this your 'territory'?"

"..."

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect you..."

There are only five of them.

Amidst the slight swaying of the carriage and the faint vibrations of mosquitoes and flies, Cong Yu said, "I thought there would be six people in the 'Six Arts'."

Le: "Don't change the subject!!!"

Amidst the cheerful music, Bong casually replied, "The last companion hasn't been found yet..."
