Chapter 655: Each Person Gets a Monitoring Device (Lantern Festival Update 1)
Upon hearing Master Jin's words, all the Nascent Soul cultivators present were stunned.
"Please ask Mr. Su to set up the barrier." Master Jin nodded to Su Motang.
Su Motang waved his hand, and a barrier of one stage enveloped the entire hall. A group of Nascent Soul cultivators were slightly moved, but they were relieved after discovering that this barrier only blocked sound and spiritual consciousness.
"Master Jin, what do you mean when you say we are going to get rich?" Yan Lun was the first one who couldn't help but ask, and the eyes of the others were all focused on Master Jin.
Master Jin smiled and said, "Based on our inference, I am 90% certain that the Hehuan Sect will accept the challenge this time."
"Master Jin, since you are 90% sure that the Hehuan Sect will accept the challenge, why does your hall still offer so many treasures as prizes?" The Star Moon Palace Master looked at Master Jin in confusion.
"Yes, Master Jin, aren't you sending treasures to the Hehuan Sect by doing this?" The Yuanying stage cultivator of the Tiangui Sect was also full of confusion.
The others were also very puzzled.
Master Jin said slowly, "Fellow Daoists, you don't really think that this hall has taken out so many treasures just to scare off the Hehuan Sect, do you?"
"Isn't it?" Everyone had a question in their mind.
Master Jin shook his head, "Of course not. We did this just to lure the Hehuan Sect into the game. Since they're targeting us everywhere, you can't blame us for being rude to them."
The faces of these Nascent Soul cultivators in the hall still had puzzled expressions, because they really didn't understand why Master Jin said that.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Master Jin knew what they were thinking. He smiled and said, "I'm sure you, my fellow Taoists, think like everyone else that if we agree to participate in a life-or-death battle, we're doomed to lose, right?"
"What I want to tell you fellow Taoists is that this time not only will we not lose, but we will definitely win."
"Ahem, Master Jin, it's not that I look down on the strength of your hall. After all, your hall is a business alliance, and the combat strength of your disciples is worrying. The Jindan-stage cultivators and foundation-building cultivators who came from the Hehuan Sect this time are almost all their core disciples, and their strength is extraordinary." Yan Lun coughed lightly twice. He was really not optimistic about Master Jin.
"Master Jin, it's not that we don't believe what you say, but your words are really hard to believe. It should be impossible for your disciples to defeat these disciples of the Hehuan Sect with their strength." The Master of Xingyue Palace frowned.
"Unless your sect can find powerful external aid and recruit some talents from various major factions, I really don't believe that your sect has the strength to defeat the Hehuan Sect."
Although Bafang Pavilion has been promoted to a top-notch force, these people still have some understanding of Bafang Pavilion and do not think that the disciples of Bafang Pavilion can defeat the geniuses of the same level in Hehuan Sect.
There is only one possibility, that Bafangguan spent a huge amount of money to invite geniuses from other major forces to participate in the life-and-death battle.
Master Jin raised his finger confidently and shook it, "My fellow Daoists, you have misunderstood. Our hall does not intend to recruit talents from the major forces to participate in life-and-death battles for us."
"The Hehuan Sect is not stupid. They certainly won't allow us to do this. This life-and-death battle depends entirely on our own disciples to participate."
"Master Jin, are you kidding us? With your own disciples participating in the battle, are you confident that you will win against the Hehuan Sect?" Yan Lun stared at Master Jin with wide eyes.
"Master Jin, are you sure you are not kidding us?" The Yuanying stage cultivator of Tiangui Sect also widened his eyes and looked at Master Jin in disbelief.
Seeing everyone's skeptical looks, Master Jin suddenly smiled and said, "Even none of you fellow Daoists believe that our hall is certain to win. I guess no one in Tiansheng City believes that our hall has the strength to defeat the Hehuan Sect."
"Think about it, everyone. When the odds for this life-and-death battle open, everyone bets on the Hehuan Sect to win. But if we are sure of victory and everyone places a heavy bet on us, what will be the result?"
"This is a life-and-death duel between two top-tier forces unseen in a thousand years. Think carefully about how big the odds will be. If handled properly, the scale of this odds will reach an astonishing level."
"Just think about how huge the benefits are.
When everyone heard what Master Jin said, they were all so surprised that they couldn't speak. It turned out that Master Jin's so-called getting rich meant that he wanted to lead everyone to bet on Bafang Hall to win.
These Nascent Soul cultivators looked at each other in bewilderment. After careful consideration, they realized that this was indeed a major event that would only occur once in a thousand years. This life-and-death battle would indeed result in a huge gamble.
They are well aware of how developed the gambling industry is in Tiansheng City, because they benefit from it.
Finally, Yan Lun was the first to speak up and ask, "Master Jin, I understand what you mean. There could indeed be a huge odds this time, but how can you guarantee victory over the Hehuan Sect?"
"Yes, it's not impossible to place a heavy bet on your sect, but how can you make us believe that your sect is sure of defeating the Hehuan Sect?"
"Master Jin, words are not enough. You can't expect us to believe you just based on a few words."
Naturally, these Yuanying-stage cultivators would not believe Master Jin based on just a few words from him, and Master Jin had never thought of making the Yuanying-stage cultivators believe him based on just a few words.
Master Jin said confidently, "Words are not enough, seeing is believing. I will naturally reassure you fellow Taoists."
"Next, I would like to ask all fellow Taoists to test the strength of our disciples." After Master Jin said this, he took out his phone and dialed a phone number.
A group of Nascent Soul cultivators stared at Master Jin's cell phone. To be honest, they were also very curious about the phone and were planning to buy some at the auction.
While no one arrived yet, Master Jin waved his right hand, and dozens of exquisite boxes suddenly appeared in the air in front of him, each of which contained a mobile phone.
Under the control of Master Jin, these boxes flew in front of these Nascent Soul cultivators one by one.
"Master Jin, what are you doing..." Everyone looked at Master Jin in confusion.
"Haha, this is a gift from our library to all of you fellow Taoists. Our cooperation with you is getting closer and closer. We'll have more ways to contact you in the future, and it's very convenient to use mobile phones."
"Actually, I should have given it to you all before, but it seemed a bit awkward. Now it's different. I believe our future cooperation will be even more pleasant, and there will be more areas for collaboration."
"These mobile phones have their own phone numbers. I have added the numbers of all of you fellow Taoists to the address book. You can directly use your mobile phones to contact any fellow Taoist at the scene. It is very convenient. If you don't believe me, you can try it first." Master Jin introduced with a smile.
Sun Yi was very happy when he saw these Nascent Soul cultivators starting to take out their mobile phones for testing. The monitoring equipment had been successfully integrated into the lives of these high-end cultivators.
