Chapter 615: Gambling Fox
Huang Tiandao is no pushover!

Chengdu and Chongqing are too important. They are related to the layout of the Great Sage Master. Zhang Chen does not think that Huang Tiandao can be restrained by relying on Zhou Qiucheng alone.

If it were any other trivial matter, Huang Tiandao might not mind giving Zhou Qiucheng a favor, but Cheng Yu was too important, so important that Huang Tiandao was not hesitant to break off relations with an eleventh-order being.

Just like the Shen family, Huang Tiandao targeted the Shen family. Given the close relationship between Zhou Qiucheng and the Shen family, would Huang Tiandao not take action because of concerns about Zhou Qiucheng's existence?
of course not!

Even if Zhou Qiucheng came forward, he would not be able to change Huang Tiandao's decision.

Before, Zhang Chen thought that Zhang Xiaohua came here to kill the tenth-level god of the Shen family. Now it seems that it is not the case at all. Zhang Xiaohua came to Jinling just to restrain Zhou Qiucheng.

"If Zhang Xiaohua takes action personally, why would she need the Immortal Execution Sword?" Zhang Chen had various thoughts in his mind: "I still need to make plans early!"

"Even Zhang Xiaohua's behavior just now might be to paralyze Zhou Qiucheng, making Zhou Qiucheng think that Zhang Xiaohua would not dare to make Huang Tiandao and an eleventh-level strongman for a mere life. If he plots against me with thundering means, and I really die, will Zhou Qiucheng still make a big fuss for a dead person like me?"

Huang Tiandao would not offend an Eleventh-order strongman for Zhang Chen, but what if Cheng Yu was added? Zhang Xiaohua only needed to use Cheng Yu as an excuse, and then she could use Huang Tiandao's power to deal with herself.

Just as Zhang Chen's mind was full of thoughts, a voice rang in his ears:

"Go down the mountain. As long as you don't leave Jinling City, I can protect you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen bowed to Zhou Qiucheng, turned around and walked down the mountain. His gait was calm and he seemed not to be affected by Zhang Xiaohua at all.

Looking at Zhang Chen's steady steps, Zhou Qiucheng's eyes lit up: "This kid is not simple, he is worth my winning over."

Zhang Chen walked down the mountain. He actually relaxed at this moment. He knew that at least before the Shen family was destroyed by Huang Tiandao, Huang Tiandao would not cause any trouble.

Zhang Chen walked all the way to the academy, and saw that there were already more than forty princes sitting in the A-class academy. They were gathered in twos and threes, and no one knew what they were talking about.

Zhang Chen also saw Zhang Xiaohua. Zhang Xiaohua seemed like an ordinary scholar, talking with the scholar around him.

Zhang Chen glanced at Zhang Xiaohua and secretly complained in his heart: "Since Zhou Qiucheng already knew that Zhang Xiaohua had ill intentions, why didn't he kick Zhang Xiaohua out?"

Zhang Xiaohua is very popular. His status as the prince of Pingbian is enough to make him more powerful than 99% of the noble families in the world.

Zhang Chen not only saw Zhang Xiaohua, but also several other familiar faces. For example, the Gambling Fox was holding dice and making bets with others. A group of people gathered together, making a lot of noise and shouting, shouting "big", "big", "small" over and over again.

He saw Zhang Gaoqiu!
I saw Shen Ling!
I also saw Jiang Nan and Shen Qiu, who were sitting in a corner talking about something.

Zhang Chen walked in and immediately attracted the attention of Jiang Nan and others, but Shen Ling suddenly stood up and shouted, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the classroom: "Why are you here? This is not a place for you to come. Get out of here quickly, so as not to embarrass yourself here. If you cause any trouble, don't use the name of the Shen family to calm it down."

She had already asked the steward to push Zhang Chen back, and she was sure that Zhang Chen had no chance of entering the school. The reason she appeared here at this time was to sneak in quietly.

Zhang Gaoqiu also frowned at this time, looking at Zhang Chen who came in, with a hint of impatience in his eyes: "Zhang Chen, you should go down the mountain quickly. If the masters here find out that you sneaked in, you will definitely cause some trouble."

His attitude was very cold. Now that Zhang Chen had lost his usefulness, he would certainly not treat Zhang Chen well anymore.

"Zhang Chen, don't embarrass yourself here, otherwise I will enforce the family rules." Zhang Gaoqiu's voice was cold.

At this moment, all the scholars in the room turned their eyes over, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes, as if they were watching gossip.

The gambling fox put away the dice, and swept his eyes over the Shen family, then looked at Zhang Chen, who was wearing a coarse linen shirt. He was too eye-catching in the crowd full of silk and satin. The young prince Zhang Xiaohua, who was standing next to him, also looked at the scene with curiosity, his eyes full of gossip.

Zhang Chen glanced at Zhang Gaoqiu and Shen Ling, his eyes revealing a trace of disdain: "Why, you are the only ones allowed to come, but I am not allowed to? The academy is not run by your family, you are really overbearing. The gentlemen and stewards in the academy didn't say anything, why did you run out and bark like dogs? Whose crotch was not tied up, so you leaked out?"

Zhang Chen's foul language immediately caused everyone in the school to burst into laughter. As the protagonist being mocked, Shen Ling immediately looked ashamed and angry, while Zhang Gaoqiu was even more furious: "You bastard, how dare you talk to me like that?"

Mysterious energy was fluctuating around Zhang Gaoqiu, and he was about to activate his natural abilities to teach Zhang Chen a lesson, but who knew that the Gambling Fox would step forward and block Zhang Chen. The inexplicable energy flowing around him actually dissolved Zhang Gaoqiu's magical powers silently.

"I think what this little brother said is right. He must have a reason to be here. What does it have to do with you guys?" The Gambling Fox's voice was full of justice. He turned his head and said to Zhang Chen behind him: "Little brother, don't be afraid. I hate to see others bully others. I will never let you be bullied when I am here."

This fellow, with his heavy body, looks righteous and has an indescribable bearing.

Zhang Chen was just looking at the gambling fox, thinking inexplicably, "This guy is the most insidious and cunning. He will never rush forward if there is no benefit. If he is willing to step forward now, he must have bad intentions."

Just as Zhang Chen was thinking about the Gambling Fox's intentions, Zhang Gaoqiu looked at the Gambling Fox coldly, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes: "Who are you? Do you know my identity?"

"You don't need to care who I am, and I don't want to know who you are. I'm just a chivalrous man who stands up for justice. This brother just walked into the school, and you actually pointed fingers at him and said things about him. Is the school run by your family? You say he is not qualified to enter, so he is not qualified to enter? You say he sneaked in, so he sneaked in?" The Gambling Fox was imposing and had a righteous expression.

"What are you going to do?" Zhang Gaoqiu's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Are you trying to stand up for this savage?"

"I just can't stand your attitude. Let me make a bet with you. This brother entered the academy through the assessment in a fair and honest way, and he definitely didn't sneak in secretly. Do you dare to bet with me?" Chai Chuanxin asked, the sieve in his hand turning inadvertently.

"Let's gamble!" Zhang Gaoqiu said coldly, "But if you lose, you will have to pay a price. Even the family behind you will pay the price for your recklessness."

The moment Zhang Gaoqiu agreed, Zhang Chen felt a hint of mysterious fluctuations in the dice in the gambling fox's hand. He knew clearly in his heart that Zhang Gaoqiu had been tricked.

"The Gambling Fox is indeed a guy who is afraid of chaos in the world. He will not miss any opportunity to gamble. Even if there is no opportunity to gamble, he will create opportunities. The Gambling Fox will definitely win this time, but I don't know what Zhang Gaoqiu will lose." Zhang Chen said secretly in his heart.

At this time, the gambling fox turned around and patted Zhang Chen on the shoulder with a friendly expression: "Good brother, I bet you must have passed the formal assessment to get in."

Zhang Chen glanced at the Gambling Fox and didn't respond to the other party's words. The words between the lines seemed to contain the word gambling. He didn't dare to respond casually. He just walked to an empty table nearby and sat down. The Gambling Fox followed Zhang Chen and sat down. His eyes were shining and he looked at Zhang Chen: "I bet you must have been admitted through a formal assessment."

Zhang Chen couldn't help but frown when he heard the Gambling Fox's words. He looked at the Gambling Fox meaningfully. His soul quickly deduced the loopholes in the Gambling Fox's words. In a moment, Zhang Chen had already understood everything:
"I see. There is a verbal trap hidden in the words of the Gambling Fox. He said, 'I bet you came in through a formal assessment', which means he has already bet that he is the one who came in through a formal assessment. Once you open your mouth and agree, it is equivalent to automatically betting that 'I did not come in through formal channels, I lurked in secretly'. At that time, the bet will be established instantly, and the Gambling Fox may win everything from you, including but not limited to: bloodline magical powers, innate spiritual treasures, and everything on you.

If you want to crack the other party's strange magical power, it is best to answer the question irrelevantly, so Zhang Chen said: "If you don't shut up, I will sew your mouth shut."

The Gambling Fox was stunned when he heard this. Zhang Chen's answer was not what he expected. He stood up for Zhang Chen. Wasn't it reasonable for Zhang Chen to speak to him like this?

So the gambling fox looked at Zhang Chen deeply, ignored Zhang Chen's rudeness, and instead hugged Zhang Chen's shoulders, patted his shoulders and said: "Good brother, we are not afraid of those bastards bullying, we have the right to go all over the world."

He turned his head and looked at Zhang Gaoqiu: "The teacher will call the names later, and the winner will be determined naturally at that time."

Zhang Gaoqiu smiled coldly: "If you lose, you have to kowtow to me and apologize."

The Gambling Fox nodded and said "OK" but secretly said in his heart: "If you lose, you have to lose your bloodline to me!"
