Shao Mingzhen looked up and glanced at Tang Xiu. He hesitated for a moment before he eventually spoke to Miao Wentang about his deal with Tang Xiu. After that, he finally concluded, “I’ve promised him that if his prescription is good, I’d give him 2 million.”

Miao Wentang ridiculed, “Are you joking me? If there was such a wound healing panacea in this world, let alone 2 million for the prescription, even if you sell it for 20 million, I’d buy it.”

Tang Xiu lightly said, “You can try it if you want. But if you find the effect is just like I told you, don’t go back on your words and pay me 20 million.”

“Hmph, what a cheap mouthed youngster!”

Miao Wentang said coldly.

Tang Xiu coldly glanced at him. Then, he turned around and walked toward the Thousand Revolution Array.

Miao Wentang loudly said, “Hey, Tang Xiu? I advise you to give up. Although I don’t know how strong you are, but judging from your age, it’s far too much for you to challenge the Thousand Revolution Array. Don’t shame yourself!”

“Brother Miao!”

Shao Mingzhen quickly pulled Miao Wentang’s arm as he called out in a low voice. Although he didn’t like Tang Xiu because he thought that Tang Xiu was too arrogant. But they were men with status and it was quite improper for them to bicker with a youngster.

Gu Xiaoxue’s mouth slanted upwards as she faintly smiled, watching Tang Xiu from the back with a slightly helpless feeling. She felt that even though Tang Xiu’s aura was very strong, but with her cultivation, she could sense Tang Xiu’s strength. So she could tell that Tang Xiu’s strength was far inferior when compared to Shao Mingzhen and Miao Wentang. The both of them barely broke into the third layer, but for Tang Xiu, perhaps he wouldn’t be able to enter the second layer.

Amongst the onlookers…

Jia Ruidao with his three apprentices had long seen Tang Xiu. However, he had never thought that Tang Xiu actually would challenge the Thousand Revolution Array. So he and his 3 apprentices didn’t greet him. As an experienced person himself, Jia Ruidao also wanted to see Tang Xiu’s bottom.

However, when he saw Shao Mingzhen and Miao Wentang’s appearance and condition when they got out from the Array, he was worried. Because, tomorrow Tang Xiu would gamble, and it was quite a taboo for gamblers to be exhausted both physically and mentally before the game. If Tang Xiu were to be injured, how would he be able to gamble tomorrow?

“I must stop him!”

Jia Ruidao squeezed out of the crowd and rushed toward Tang Xiu as he exclaimed, “Brother Tang, please wait. I have to talk with you.”

Tang Xiu suddenly stopped. With a puzzled expression in his eyes, he looked at the rushing Jia Ruidao and then asked, “What’s up?”

Jia Ruidao revealed a forced smile, “Brother Tang, we’ll have the game with Chen Kai tomorrow. If you were to face some difficulties in this Thousand Revolution Array, then tomorrow…”

“You don’t believe me?”

A cold beam flashed in Tang Xiu’s face as he spoke with a cold tone.

Jia Ruidao smiled and said, “It’s not that I don’t believe you. But it’s quite a taboo for a professional gambler to get exhausted physically and mentally. Only in a 100% condition would you be able to win the game.”

Tang Xiu indifferently said, “You have always been resting well everyday, but I haven’t seen you win, have I? Hmph… I’ve my own way. I need not other’s words for it.”

With that said, he turned around and strode into the Thousand Revolution Array.

Miao Wentang at the side burst into laughter, “Brother Shao, can you see that? Even his companions don’t believe him. Do you think he has the ability to break the Thousand Revolution Array? Just wait and see! We’ll have some funny jokes to look forward to.”

Shao Mingzhen smiled and secretly sighed. Apparently, he also agreed with Miao Wentang’s opinion.

Inside the Thousand Revolution Array…

The second Tang Xiu entered, he didn’t have the slightest surprise in seeing the changes in the world’s surrounding scene. He looked around before his vision locked on a high ancient tree. He flicked his toes and bolted forward as though arrow being released from the bow. In a breath’s time, he already sprinted toward his destination.

“Puff……”

A sharp Mitsubishi army knife shot forward toward the ancient tree trunk as the dark yellow snake’s weak spot was pierced.

“Buzz…”

The world scene changed as the scorching hot summer emerged. Flowers bloomed with hundreds of birds chirping happily. Tang Xiu looked around at the surrounding and saw a track at the distant. A stele was placed half buried in the middle of the track. Without the slightest hesitation, he sprinted fast toward it.

It was time! His cultivation was still low. Before he had a formidable strength and was able to act freely, he could only grab the opportunity within the given time. With a burst of effort, he sprinted toward the stele as he exerted all of his strength into his fist and punched the stele.

“Boom……”

The stele was broken as the lions and tigers in the surroundings instantly vanished. The environment changed again.

Outside the Thousand Revolution Array…

Everyone’s eyes were fixated on Tang Xiu. Strange looks, as well as disbelieving expressions were cast on their faces as they looked at Tang Xiu. They also clearly remembered that it took half an hour for Shao Mingzhen and Miao Wentang to step more than 20 steps toward the center of the plaza.

“How could this be?”

Miao Wentang exclaimed out loud. A disbelieving expression hung on his face, even his eyeballs were almost popping out. He even did exaggerated things as he rubbed his eyes only to affirm that he was not seeing an illusion, and then looked at Tang Xiu in the plaza again.
