Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 818: There’s Still Gambling on Games

"God!"

"Lord!"

"How is this possible!"

"Wasn’t the hole card supposed to be the Ace of Spades, why is it the Ace of Clubs now?"

...

Everyone in the main hall was stunned at this moment. They heard Lin Feng’s and Catherine’s conversation clearly. They also didn’t expect such a shocking reversal to happen. It was truly unimaginable, how did the hole card suddenly change? This couldn’t be possible, Catherine was the Gambling King! How could she make such a mistake? This was simply impossible. What on earth had happened? Why was Catherine so confident that the hole card was the Ace of Spades, but when it was revealed, it had turned into the Ace of Clubs...

Their mouths hung wide open, they couldn’t even utter a single word. The situation before their eyes was too thrilling, leaving them at a loss for words. How could Catherine make such a simplistic error? Could it be... Could it be that Catherine misread the card, otherwise how could this have happened!

Thinking this, their hearts surged with anger. Catherine was too abnormal today, was this the usually unbeatable Catherine? It didn’t matter that she lost, but they too suffered because they had placed high bets. Expecting a certain victory, and now suddenly it was all in vain. The contrast left them completely dumbfounded and equally unsure of what to do now.

Their eyes fixed straight on Lin Feng, and the shock they felt towards Lin Feng was immense. They didn’t understand how Lin Feng could swap Catherine’s card because the large screen was there, and Lin Feng had never left his chair throughout the entire game. Even if Lin Feng wanted to cheat, it was impossible. How did Lin Feng manage to do something as unbelievable as swapping the hole card? And moreover, after Catherine had examined the card, this was simply inconceivable!

Now they finally understood why Lin Feng had been so quiet and composed from the beginning. It turned out that Lin Feng was the real Gambling King, far more formidable than Catherine. They had never taken Catherine seriously, how foolish of them to think that Lin Feng, so young, couldn’t possibly beat Catherine. If they had known how formidable Lin Feng was, they would have unhesitatingly bet on Lin Feng winning.

But now that the cards were revealed, it was too late. They had just bet on Catherine to win, and they lost all their money. They couldn’t express how much regret they felt inside. Wondering where on earth Lin Feng had come from with such incredible gambling skills, being so young yet so skilled, how formidable he might become in the future, it was truly baffling...

"Ah!"

"Lin Feng won!"

"We won, we won!"

"Yes, it’s a ten-to-one payout..."

...

At this moment, Huang Shi’s friends were also stunned in place, even the slowest among them could see what the situation with the cards was. Clearly, Lin Feng’s card was much higher than Catherine’s, so Lin Feng won all of Catherine’s money. They found it unbelievable how Lin Feng had managed it. Catherine had already examined the hole card, and everyone could sense Catherine’s confidence in winning. However, in this gambling match, God clearly didn’t favor Catherine...

What made them even happier was that with Lin Feng’s win, all the bets they had placed on Lin Feng paid off—it was a ten-to-one payout! Just moments ago, they thought Lin Feng was sure to lose, but then Lin Feng brought such an enormous surprise, making their hearts suddenly leap with excitement. From hell to heaven, they hadn’t expected such a dramatic turnaround; not everyone can endure such a thrill.

Now their eyes were also firmly fixated on Lin Feng, truly wanting to know who Lin Feng really was. So young, possessing such terrifying wealth, not to mention such unbeatable gambling skills—it was truly inconceivable. When had there ever been such a person in the world, and yet without any fame? It was so strange!

But no matter how much they thought, they could not figure it out. In the end, they had to abandon their thoughts, deciding to wait until after the gambling match to ask Huang Shi, where he had found Lin Feng. If possible, they all wanted to get to know this Lin Feng who had astonished everyone...

My god!

How is this possible?

Catherine lost 2 billion US dollars!

Damn it!

...

When Huang Yu saw this scene, he was truly shocked beyond measure. He could never have dreamt that Catherine would lose, and lose so miserably at that, especially to Lin Feng by 2 billion US dollars. It was utterly unbelievable. Was Lin Feng even human? How could he be so formidable that not even Catherine could match him? This was impossible...

Huang Yu’s mind was swamped with exclamation marks. He felt like his head was about to explode. Staring at Lin Feng through the glass, he was completely out of his wits. He couldn’t have anticipated this outcome. Catherine was supposed to handle Huang Shi, but instead, she got herself dragged down too. How could he tolerate this? He just couldn’t believe what he was seeing was real.

This must be a dream, this has to be a dream!

All Huang Yu could do was to keep hypnotizing himself with that thought. He knew one thing: if this wasn’t a dream, then Lin Feng was simply too terrifying, horrifyingly unbelievable. He was beginning to regret being so clever and bringing Catherine to Tianhai to deal with Huang Shi. If she hadn’t come, none of this would have happened, and Huang Shi wouldn’t have become the biggest shareholder of Huang Group!

Right! If Catherine lost, then how would she deal with him, knowing Catherine had several cultivator experts? What should he do now?

Suddenly, Huang Yu remembered another thing: now that Catherine had lost, what if she took out her anger on him? What would he do then? The very thought caused cold sweat to run down his body. He wanted to run, but his legs couldn’t even move, not realizing that his trembling hands had dropped a cup to the floor. His whole body was shivering uncontrollably, with only one thought in his mind—he really didn’t want to die...

Little did Huang Yu know, the sound of the cup hitting the floor had been heard loud and clear by Lin Feng...

"Lin Feng, you... you... you’re amazing. I admit defeat and honor the bet. I, Catherine, acknowledge my loss! I’ll transfer the money to you now!" Catherine was now utterly furious. Her facial muscles twitched as her heart boiled like an erupting volcano. But given the public setting, it wasn’t a good time to act. If not for her concerns, she would’ve struck Lin Feng dead right there!

Even though Catherine was furious, she was powerless at the moment. All she could do was suppress her rage, her face flushed red as she glared at Lin Feng, grinding her teeth. It was 2 billion US dollars at stake, nearly 90% of her wealth. How could she accept losing it all to Lin Feng?

She had already started planning. Even if she transferred the money to Lin Feng now, once he left the gambling ship, she could find a secluded place to deal with him and it would be over. Not only would she make him return the 2 billion, but she’d also make him cough up even more. Otherwise, there was no way she could swallow this defeat today.

At this moment, she felt a bit relieved that she hadn’t bet all her assets. She still had over 300 million US dollars left and owned the gambling ship. Even if she lost 2 billion US dollars to Lin Feng, she still had a chance for a comeback. Not to mention, she had already planned her next moves, which finally allowed her to feel a bit more stable and prevented her from acting rashly in such a public venue.

To Catherine, Lin Feng was just a kid in his twenties, and she hadn’t sensed any aura of a cultivator from him. He was just a slightly wealthy ordinary person. How could he possibly be a match for her, especially with several highly-paid cultivator experts on the ship? Together, they should be able to handle Lin Feng easily. It was simply impossible for her to lose!

"Wait, there’s still the soccer bet, did you forget? It’s about time, turn on the TV. Let’s see the result before we talk further. Who knows, you might even end up losing more money to me." Lin Feng, hearing that Catherine was about to make the transfer, quickly interjected. How could it just be 2 billion so simply? He had planned for so long, of course, it was to drive Catherine insane. The soccer bet wasn’t for nothing, after all, if his predictions were right, Catherine’s assets would be wiped out after this match, maybe even the gambling ship would end up his.

It must be said, Lin Feng’s grasp on human nature was incredibly precise, the greed inherent in human nature was exactly what doomed Catherine. His approach was either not to act at all or to drive the opponent to a corner if he did act. Furthermore, Lin Feng had other matters to find out, driving Catherine to a corner was essential to make her willingly disclose everything he needed to know. As for the murderous intent he saw in Catherine’s eyes, Lin Feng didn’t care in the least; she was just an AA-grade expert, and unless Catherine made a move, Lin Feng couldn’t be bothered to act.

"Smack!"

When Catherine heard what Lin Feng said, she suddenly remembered. Right, they had started betting on soccer before the gambling had even started, and Lin Feng had very unlucky chosen the certain-to-lose UK team. Given that France had won against the UK with a score of 3:0, it meant she would still retain 800 million US dollars. So, hearing Lin Feng speak, she waved her hand, instructing someone to turn on the television...
