Let's just wager filthy gold and silver

Zhao Tiangui had never heard of the Yan Mountain Academy, but now he was very curious.

Zhou Wanwan led them on a tour of the military camp.

The Prince of Dai looked at the soldiers and said, "Sister, I want to learn martial arts."

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "Study, not just martial arts. I'll send you to the Yan Mountain Academy, where you'll learn both literature and martial arts, as long as you like it."

The Prince of Dai grinned, showing his white teeth, and said, "Really? Thank you, sister."

Zhou Wanwan was actually a little uneasy. This Prince of Dai was really easy to talk to, and directly gave her six cities.

Shen Tao and Zhao Kun didn't mean it that way.

Zhou Wanwan led them to the Yan Mountain Academy. Shen Tao looked at the Yan Mountain Academy and said:

"Good heavens, this is much more impressive than the academy in Great Qi!"

Moreover, your collection of books is definitely larger than that of the three best academies in the Great Qi.

No sooner had he finished speaking than someone said, "I didn't expect your Yan Mountain Academy to be such a bunch of good-for-nothings, unable to even answer such a simple question."

Zhou Wanwan turned around and heard Shen Tao say:

"This should be Yunheng Academy. The three most famous academies in the Great Qi are Jingji Academy, Yunheng Academy, and Huaichuan Academy."

Yunheng Academy is considered one of the top-tier institutions.

That's why they're so arrogant.

Zhou Wanwan walked over, smiling, and said, "What simple question can't you answer?"

The person from the Yunheng Academy looked down at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Whose child is this? What are you doing wandering around here?"

Zhou Wanwan said, "I'm also from the Yan Mountain Academy."

The people from the Yunheng Academy scoffed, "Yan Mountain Academy, they won't even spare a child as young as you!"

Zhou Wanwan laughed and said, "Does your Yunheng Academy only know how to bully outer disciples?"

The people from the Yunheng Academy were taken aback and asked, "What do you mean by outer sect and inner sect?"

A student from the nearby Yanmen Academy said:

"We are all outer disciples, meaning we're not part of the main sect. You all must be quite skilled, right?"

What are you comparing yourself to ordinary people like us?

The disciples of the Yunheng Academy laughed loudly:

"Nobody can pretend better than you guys from the Yan Mountain Academy. Will you die if you don't pretend?"

I see you have quite a lot of books, but what's the use of them?

Even if you read it, it would be a waste; it's better to give it to our Yunheng Academy."

The students from the Yunheng Academy were green with envy when they saw the books from the Yan Mountain Academy.

There's no way around it, the books here are just so complete, and there are even many rare copies.

They were extremely envious.

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "If you want the books in our Yan Mountain Academy, just say so. Why are you all hiding them?"

A man dressed in blue smiled and said, "We do want your collection of books. Are you willing to sell them?"

Zhou Wanwan shook her head directly and said:

"No, these are rare finds, and I'm definitely not selling them. If you want them, there are ways, but we'll make a bet."

You must be the most capable people at the Yunheng Academy. We can easily send three people from our side who are skilled in both literature and martial arts. As long as you defeat us...

I'm giving you all these rare books for free.

These rare copies are all worthless; they are rubbings.

They have plenty of bookstores; these people just don't know it.

Three people emerged from the Yunheng Academy. The leader smiled and said, "My name is Yue Yunxiao. It's a pleasure to meet you. Which of the three will accept the challenge?"

Zhou Wanwan pointed to two people and said:

"The two of them, plus me."

But let's get back to the point. We're giving you a unique copy, and you know its value. So what will you offer in exchange?

Yue Yunxiao chuckled awkwardly and said, "Well, if I were to use gold or silver, which are common items, I'm afraid it would be a disgrace..."

Zhou Wanwan interrupted him, saying, "What I like most is gold and silver jewelry. It's okay, I can accept it."

Yue Yunxiao was speechless for a moment.

Zhou Wanwan said, "How about we skip the rare book and just bet on gold, silver, and other common items?"

Hu Qing, standing nearby, sneered:

"Brother Yue, people probably don't know what kind of background your Yue Family has. We are not afraid of gold, silver and worldly things."

I'm afraid you, little girl, aren't capable of managing Yan Mountain Academy.

Everyone around laughed.

Hu Qing said, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

Zhou Wanwan said:

"They're just making a fuss; I still have some authority over Yan Mountain Academy."

It's okay, don't worry! I'm just afraid you won't dare to gamble.

If you win, you can take away the gold, silver, and other worldly possessions, and you can also take these rare books.

Is the reward generous?

Hu Qing nodded and asked, "How much should we bet?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said, "It depends on how much you want."

Yue Yunxiao scoffed coldly, "You've got quite the nerve. I'm just afraid you won't be able to come up with the money when it comes time to pay. I bet you a million taels of silver, do you really think you can produce that much?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled slightly and said, "If you really want to bet 1 million taels, I dare to take out 1 million taels."

Yue Yunxiao laughed heartily and said, "Alright then, bring it out! Our commanders are all here, let them come and be witnesses!"

Hu Qing looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Now take out the money! I want to see if you, this little brat, can even produce any money."

Zhou Wanwan rummaged in her bag and quickly took out a 1 million tael silver note from Treasure-Gathering Bank.

Yue Yunxiao, of course, could also produce one.

The Old Scholar Tree beside them said, "The Yue Family are imperial merchants; it's normal for them to be wealthy. There's nothing surprising about it."

Zhou Wanwan scoffed, "Royal merchants, huh? They'll definitely get a huge cut."

Yue Yunxiao had no idea what Zhou Wanwan was muttering about, but he figured he might as well take the money that was offered to him.

Yue Yunxiao was also quite clever; he quickly noticed several renowned scholars walking in.

Zhou Wanwan actually saw Xie Guangyuan, the greatest Confucian scholar of the Great Qi.

He squinted and said, "Old Zhu! The environment of your academy is quite nice."

Dean Zhu said with a smile:

"I would never want to come to this godforsaken place!"

"I would never have come if it weren't for my apprentice."

Xie Guangyuan stared at him blankly and said, "Your apprentice? You haven't taken on an apprentice in many years, have you?"

Old Zhu laughed heartily and said, "This will probably be my last disciple from now on!"

"I'm really curious now, what kind of person can become your last disciple?"

Then they heard someone outside shouting, "Distinguished scholars, the people from the Yunheng Academy are fighting with the people from the Yan Mountain Academy!"

Dean Zhu stood up and said, "Let's go take a look. These kids are really something else!"

The dean of the Yunheng Academy, surnamed Bai, frowned and said, "My disciples are usually very Erya; how could they possibly get into a fight?"

Dean Zhu smiled faintly and said:

"Your apprentice Erya, while my apprentices are all very well-behaved."

I also think it's unlikely a fight will break out. Let's go take a look first!

They genuinely thought a fight had broken out, but when they arrived at the scene, the atmosphere on both sides was actually quite pleasant.

Dean Zhou looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Why are you back, girl?"

Zhou Wanwan said with a smile, "I've come back to see you all!"

Yue Yunxiao, who was standing next to him, recounted everything that had happened.

Dean Bai snorted coldly:

"Hmph! Our Yunheng Academy is no ordinary academy."

These three are my last disciples; ordinary people can't compare to them.

Who are these people?

Dean Zhu coughed and said, "Wanwan is my student, and these two are Wanwan's students."

Yue Yunxiao laughed heartily:

"You mean a six-year-old child who's already taking on students?"

Your Yan Mountain Academy is quite interesting; it truly deserves its reputation as the premier academy on the frontier.

Dean Bai glared at him and said:

"You child, you say all sorts of things."

I heard you guys made a pretty big bet this time, a million?

Yue Yunxiao laughed heartily and said, "Dean Bai, you know my family is wealthy. One million is just my pocket money; it's nothing to mention."

Dean Bai waved his hand and said, "Then let's have a good competition. Losing money doesn't matter, but we can't lose the reputation of the Yunheng Academy."
