Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Xiaoyue was somewhat surprised.

The staff member said to Xiaoyue, "Sir, would you like to place your bets?"

Xiaoyue nodded and then told Yin Pan'er the amount of betting she had been given.

The staff member said to Xiaoyue, "Sir, such a large sum of money from you will significantly lower the odds."

Xiaoyue nodded, indicating that she understood.

After all, there's no other way now; even a mosquito's leg is still meat.

After Xiaoyue returned, Yin Pan'er noticed that Xiaoyue wasn't in high spirits.

He then asked Xiaoyue, "What's wrong? Is something not going well?"

Xiaoyue shook her head and then repeated what the staff member had just said.

"I didn't expect anyone would still dare to place such a large bet on us. Because of their actions, we've lost at least a significant amount of money..."

After listening, Yin Pan'er said to Xiaoyue, "I thought it was something serious, but it turns out it's just this. Isn't that normal? Every place has fools and smart people. The situation here is normal too."

"This is Lingas City, the place where the most intelligent people in the entire West gather..."

Xiaoyue nodded.

Yin Pan'er continued, "Besides, we weren't originally in it for the money. Isn't this just a side effect? ​​Victor King handles the money-making; the only reason I'm doing this is to make things easier for myself..."

Xiaoyue nodded: "My lord, do you think that mad Taoist priest can handle it? I've inquired about him; the gladiator they sent is extremely powerful..."

Yin Pan'er smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, winning or losing doesn't matter..."

Looking at Yin Pan'er's expression, Xiaoyue naturally understood the unspoken meaning behind Yin Pan'er's words.

"I'd actually prefer him to lose..."

Before Xiaoyue could continue, Yin Pan'er shook her head slightly.

Although they didn't know how the mad Taoist priest did it, she always felt that he was able to monitor them in real time...

As time went on, staff knocked on the door to remind Yin Pan'er that she needed to make an appearance.

...

Meanwhile, Xiao Ce and Mr. Jin were in a private room.

They were only stopped by the arena staff after the odds had reached 1.5.

After listening, Mr. Jin smiled and said, "Mr. Ce, it seems your analysis was correct. Besides, you're not the only smart person here; there are other smart people as well..."

Xiao Ce said with a smile, "I hope he's a genuinely intelligent person, and not just someone who's presumptuous!"

Mr. Jin laughed and said to Xiao Ce, "Haha, that's definitely not going to happen."

As a grand and urgent burst of music filled the air, the entire venue was now packed with people.

Judging from their clothes, many of these people were wealthy, and some, judging from their appearance, were probably from Lingas City…

At this point, someone who resembled a host came on stage and began to say a few opening remarks.

Then the two presidents appeared and jointly signed a life-or-death contract.

Xiao Ce's eyes were fixed on the woman wearing a mask.

With just one glance, Xiao Ce could confirm that it was Yin Pan'er.

At this point, Boudica was almost certain, and not only him, but also Night Cat and the others were certain.

They all looked at Xiao Ce.

At this moment, Xiao Ce's expression remained unchanged.

No one knew what Xiao Ce was thinking.

...

At this moment, the host began reciting a set of lines.

Everyone was just trying to liven up the atmosphere, and it worked really well.

The gladiator with the number 5455, representing the West, was extremely fierce; you could tell from his movements that he was a trained fighter.

After all, he's someone who's won 300 games in a row.

However, at this time they had purchased various protective gear, and their weapon was a spiked club.

One end of this spiked club is wrapped with barbs, and bloodstains remain on it. It's unknown how many people have perished on this club.

The gladiator representing the East Asia Association was not tall or particularly muscular, and because he was wearing armor, he was not clearly visible.

His weapon was a spear-like weapon.

Xiao Ce looked at this person and felt that he looked familiar.

Night Cat had already recognized him and walked over to Xiao Ce, saying in a very deep voice, "Mad Taoist."

Upon hearing Ye Mao's words, Xiao Ce's eyes sharpened instantly.

I didn't expect this mad Taoist to arrive so quickly.

Moreover, what exactly is this mad Taoist's stance? I wonder what kind of tricks he's up to.

Xiao Ce decided to find a way to meet him later…

At this moment, inside the stadium

Both gladiators stood in their respective spots.

After the host announced the start,

The 5455 didn't rush to attack, but instead cautiously and slowly made its way towards the madman's location.

His walk still carried a lot of tentativeness.

The Mad Taoist stood still and raised the long spear in his hand.

He then made a throwing motion.

Everyone thought that the Mad Taoist was too weak. After all, the two were at least a hundred meters apart. In such an arena, losing one's weapon was tantamount to courting death.

Even 5455 looked at his actions with a hint of disdain on his face.

Not to mention the distance, he's not stupid enough to just stand there and let him stab him.

But only a second passed.

The entire arena fell silent, for after the Mad Taoist threw the spear, a faint smile appeared on his face.

He then made a gesture of putting his hands in his pockets.

The spear pierced the heart of gladiator 5455 at a speed too fast for the naked eye to see.

It went straight through.

The speed was so fast that it was almost as fast as when the Mad Taoist had just made the motion of throwing his spear.

The spear had barely left his hand when it pierced through the chest of gladiator 5455.

The gladiator immediately fell to the ground.

"So fast!"

Both Night Owl and Da Lei were exclaiming in surprise.

They were all extremely powerful, but they couldn't understand what the Mad Taoist was doing.

This doesn't make sense.

Mr. Jin said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, you were absolutely right..."

Xiao Ce was shocked. Just now, the spear in the hands of the Mad Taoist had turned into a bullet.

Xiao Ce believed that only bullets could achieve this effect.

But it just so happens to be a spear.

This mad Taoist is truly a monster.

Xiao Ce said to Mr. Jin, "Mr. Jin, did you see it clearly?"

Mr. Jin smiled and shook his head.

Xiao Ce looked at Mr. Jin with some disbelief: "Mr. Jin, you don't seem that surprised."

Mr. Jin smiled slightly at Xiao Ce, then said, "Because you haven't been here often, I've seen a lot. To be honest, the process isn't that important. There are all sorts of bizarre deaths... We just need to know the outcome!"

"You don't need to worry that that person will threaten you or me."

Xiao Ce looked at Mr. Jin's expression and was completely unsurprised...

"Why do you say that?"

Mr. Jin said to Xiao Ce, "Because it's very simple. It's difficult enough for you to even see her, let alone have any interaction with her..."

“Mr. Ce, I know you might not agree. But that's how it is here… that's class… In reality, you two are from completely different classes…”

Xiao Ce said, "Mr. Jin, isn't your statement a bit too absolute? After all, didn't Prince William of the British Empire also cause me trouble?"

Mr. Jin said, “It’s different. Those royal families are people we can contact… To put it this way, a member of the Illuminati can change the king of the British Empire… and the president of the Illuminati has the power to dismiss a member. This agent’s power is actually equivalent to that of the president.”

Xiao Ce listened and understood.

He never imagined that the gap between him and Yin Pan'er had become so large without him even realizing it.

"Mr. Jin, according to you, I can't even see that person I want to see?"

Mr. Jin nodded.

"Mr. Ce, I didn't expect the competition to end like this after waiting for so long. Would you like to take a look around here?"

Xiao Ce waved his hand.

Mr. Jin said with a smile, "Then let's go back."

"Mr. Jin, I think I'll just wander around here a bit more. You should go back first." Xiao Ce thought about going to find Yin Pan'er.

Fortunately, Mr. Jin didn't have too many doubts: "Okay, you can take the money from this bet. Or you can have them calculate it and send it to you."

After listening to Mr. Jin's words, Xiao Ce nodded with a smile.

After Mr. Jin reached the door, he continued, "Mr. Ce, I know you want to meet that agent, but you definitely won't be able to... However, you can try... But remember to be polite. If you anger them, it will be difficult for me to help you..."

Upon hearing Mr. Jin's words, Xiao Ce thought to himself that he was indeed an old fox.

Seeing that he had been guessed, Xiao Ce no longer concealed anything and said to Mr. Jin, "Mr. Jin, you truly have discerning eyes; nothing can be hidden from you..."

Seeing that Xiao Ce was about to explain, Mr. Jin interrupted, "I understand you. After all, the people you want to deal with are the British royal family, and Prince William also has the support of the Illuminati. You want to find a bigger backer, which is understandable!"

Xiao Ce didn't actually mean to say that, but Mr. Jin's explanation was clearly more appropriate.

Xiao Ce nodded.

Mr. Jin smiled and said, "Although the chances are slim, I wish you good luck..."

Xiao Ce suddenly realized that the passage here was like a maze.

If you tell the arena staff you're going to see the East Asia Association's representative, you'll definitely be refused.

"Mr. Kim, how do I get there..."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Mr. Jin still admired Xiao Ce's courage.

After all, they didn't even know where the East Asia Association's representative and their private room were, yet they were saying they were going to meet...

"They should be in a private room. If you want to go there, you definitely can't, and no arena staff will take you there."

"You can go around to the back of the arena; there's a path that only a few people use... You can try your luck there. If you follow it and leave this area, you might have a chance to meet them..."

After hearing Mr. Jin's words, Xiao Ce smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.

Mr. Jin gave a wry smile: "God! I hope you don't anger them. If they arrest you, just don't tell them that I told you to do it..."

Xiao Ce smiled and nodded: "Don't worry..."

As he spoke, he noticed that the audience was starting to leave.

Xiao Ce said to Mr. Jin, "Mr. Jin, if I get in touch with the agent, I'll introduce you to him."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Mr. Jin smiled and said, "Ignorance is bliss!"

Xiao Ce and Boudica then went outside.

When he left, the arena staff asked Xiao Ce to register.

Xiao Ce was in a hurry to leave, so he left Ryan behind to handle the rest of the matters.

After Mr. Jin stopped going with them, Xiao Ce asked Da Lei and the others, "Was that gladiator Yin Pan'er just now the Mad Taoist?"

Da Lei and Ye Mao nodded, their faces looking extremely grim.

“That’s right, the person wearing the mask is Princess Yin Pan’er, and the gladiator is the Mad Taoist!” Night Cat said.

Da Lei's face was grim as he said, "I knew that mad Taoist would be powerful, but I never expected him to be this powerful..."

As Da Lei spoke, he asked Xiao Ce, "Brother, do you think he's a friend or foe?"

Xiao Ce shook his head awkwardly: "I really don't know... Did you guys figure out how he did that move just now?"

Da Lei nodded: "Absolute power, as long as there is enough power, can be achieved... However, I feel that this is something that humans cannot do."

After listening, Boudica asked Da Lei, "Da Lei, if you were to encounter that mad Taoist, what are your chances of winning?"

Da Lei and Ye Mao exchanged a glance: "No..."

Da Lei added, "We knew he was good before, but we really didn't expect him to be this good..."

Night Owl seemed still shaken as he said, "Hopefully, we're not enemies..."

Xiao Ce watched as their mental defenses were shattered by the mad Taoist's single spear thrust.

Xiao Ce comforted him, "First of all, they might not necessarily be enemies. Besides, no matter how powerful he is, can he withstand a bomb? This isn't the era of the past anymore; it's not the age of cold weapons..."

"Anyone who gets shot will die!"

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Night Owl and Da Lei smiled and nodded.

After they went outside, they got into the carriage.

...

Meanwhile, in another private room, Yin Pan'er was not in a hurry to leave, but was waiting for the mad Taoist to return after changing his clothes.

This was also the first time she and Xiaoyue had witnessed the Mad Taoist in action.

The shock this brought them was unparalleled.

"Sir, did you see that? How did he do it?"

Compared to Xiaoyue's surprise, Yin Pan'er appeared much calmer: "Didn't I tell you? He's a monster... nothing a monster would do is surprising. It's actually quite good! At least this has intimidated quite a few people."
