Lane had won the challenge.
They had not just been watching for fun. Most of the warriors there had taken part in the betting, and some of them
had even bet their whole fortunes, thinking that they would be able to make a large profit. Yet, it ended up being
the complete opposite.
They had lost their whole fortunes!
It seemed like those thirty-odd pieces of purple gold definitely did not belong to those two followers. Instead, Lane
had probably instructed them to bet on him!
It was one to two odds. Lane had not only managed to get fifty pieces of purple gold as a reward but thirty from the
betting!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat meant that he had won eighty pieces of purple gold in one go, which was equal to nine hundred million spirit
crystals. That was just absurd!
Everyone gulped at that moment. Various emotions played in the eyes of the spectators.
They were envious, jealous, and even angry and frustrated. Some of them cursed themselves for not recognizing
how strong Jack was.
If they had bet on Lane, they would have made a huge profit. Yet, dreams were completely different from reality!
A large man slapped his head and said, "I knew that something strange was happening! I just really don't know
what went over me. I didn't dare to stake it all, and I missed out on such a good change. I lost my whole fortune
too!"
A warrior next to him said regretfully as well, "I thought that those two followers would be the ones to regret
everything. I thought that all that purple gold would just go down the drain. I can't believe I'm the joke at the end!"
The more they spoke, the more they regretted it. Yet, no matter what they did, they could not return to the past!
They were forced to accept the truth.
Lourain and Marth quickly got the rewards and happily walked to Jack, planning on leaving the Killing
Hall.
Yet, at that moment, Lionel suddenly appeared.
He greeted Jack respectfully before smartly explaining everything that had happened earlier. He stated his
intentions and even hinted that Jack's followers were not reliable for not wanting to recommend Lionel.
Jack listened to him for a long time and naturally knew that he was trying to recommend himself.
If that person was not lying, he would definitely be a good strategist. Yet, Jack was not interested in someone like
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat at all.
Smart people had their uses, but they were not always good to have around.
Those people were usually not just smart but had intentions of their own. He might end up shooting himself in the
foot accepting someone like that. urthermore, Jack did think he needed a strategist. He was full of secrets and did
not want anyone prying.
He quietly listened to Lionel trying to recommend himself before he responded with a cold and calm tone, "I'm not
looking for followers."
After that, Jack turned around and left without even looking back, leaving Lionel stunned in place.
Lourain could not help but giggle.
Lionel had thought he was so smart and even threatened Lourain.
Lionel's face reddened as he had never felt so embarrassed in his life. Even though Jack was not trying to
embarrass him, Lionel did not think that way. He felt like his dignity had been trampled over by Lane.
The humiliation and hatred soared to his heart, and he glared at Jack retreating murderously!
Even though he knew he did not have the skills to kill Lane, he still had his wits. He could work in the dark!
