Chapter 632: Marking Territory! Matching Mechanism?
"Ten, nine, eight... two, one!"
"Betting duel mode activated!"
"Please have the Divine Ascension Seed choose a Betting Opponent within one hour; time limit is one hour."
"The result is determined by the total Faith Value after a single Death Game; the higher wins!"
"Here it comes!"
Su Yang did not hesitate, grabbed the remote and immediately selected Tang Youning!
"Player 'Su Yang' has selected player 'Tang Youning', bet 2000 Faith Value?"
"Yes!"
"The betting duel is established; both parties, please sign the contract."
Su Yang raised his hand and signed his name in the lower right corner.
Not long after...
"Contract formed!"
Seeing this news, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Their hearts were mixed with emotions that were hard to describe.
There was joy, but also a touch of melancholy.
"Player 'Su Yang', please choose an evolution type to bet on: Gene Modification or Innate Talent."
"Innate Talent!"
"Selection successful; if the betting duel is lost, you will lose First-Order Evolution progress."
"Player 'Tang Youning' chooses Innate Talent evolution type, current tier—Second Tier!"
"If victorious, the Divine Ascension Seed and its Dependents each gain 200 Faith Value evolution progress."
"Only Second Tier, this guy is really stingy," Lin Yang said with a disdainful smirk.
"A six-person team is already the limit; while he guarantees his own development, he also has to allocate a portion to Wan Shi Tong," Su Yang said.
"A bet of a full two thousand, if they lose they'll be completely wiped out!" Jiang Chengyu's mouth curled into a cold smile.
The feud between the two families has not arisen in just a day or two.
As a Dependent of Su Yang, there is some sense of pride in the heart.
That random Death Game incident, Li Xin's conduct alone would have sentenced all of them to death.
And as the instigator, Tang Youning has now become a Divine Ascension Seed, making matters even easier.
With the Proposal approved, Su Yang's goal is simple: not only to kill him, but also to bring all his subordinates under his command.
Especially Wan Shi Tong!
This person's Innate Talent is so perverse, it's practically a massive weapon for acquiring Information.
Controlling the Information Gap grants the initiative.
"How about it, shall I go over and shout a couple of lines?" Lin Yang asked.
"Do whatever you want," Su Yang smiled faintly.
Lin Yang let out a cold laugh and strode toward the opposite side of the street.
Su Yang and the others followed, then leaned against the doorway to quietly watch his performance.
"You Tang, get the hell out!" Lin Yang slammed the door and shouted inside.
No movement...
"Playing dead, huh?" Lin Yang snorted coldly, immediately unbuckled his belt, ripped off his pants and urinated on the door.
"Drip drip—"
Xi Jun, watching the commotion, teased, "Lin Yang, your Fire's been pretty high lately, Urine so yellow."
Ximen Zhirou chuckled, "Urine yellow gives the strength to rouse those pretending to sleep."
"The smell's quite strong; is this an early Marking Territory?" Jiang Chengyu laughed loudly.
After finishing, Lin Yang pulled up his pants, spat a mouthful of saliva onto the ground, "Refreshing!"
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the Villa gate swung open abruptly.
Six people emerged together, faces as black as coal.
"Yo ho, you've been called for so long and still didn't come out; I thought you guys were all deaf," Lin Yang crossed his arms and tilted his chin.
Tang Youning turned his head toward the water stain on the door, his face darkening further, "Looking for death?"
"Yeah, I'm looking for death!"
Lin Yang remained unafraid, strode forward to stand before him, eyes locked, "But what to do? I've got thick skin; even if I want to die I can't."
"Ah ah ah, get any closer and you'll kiss me," a spectator player shouted.
Tang Youning, expressionless, said coldly, "I can't kill you, but the rules can."
"When you fall into my hands, I'll show you what 'cannot seek death' means!"
"Is that so? I'm so scared," Lin Yang said sarcastically.
Tang Youning turned his head toward the lazy silhouette behind Lin Yang and said loudly, "Su Xiong, if you have something to say, say it directly; no need for such low tactics."
Su Yang spread his hands, "Dependents' personal will, I have no authority to interfere."
Lin Yang, hearing that, grew even more confident, "Aren't you ashamed saying that? Who originally set up the Betting Duel and then ran to our house barking like a dog?"
"So young yet already senile? So forgetful?"
Tang Youning's eyes flickered, but he chose not to act, only letting out a light laugh, "I know what ghostly plan you have in mind; it's just relying on numbers to assume victory."
"I'll show you with actions that having many people is of no use in this world."
"Oh? Is that so?" Su Yang raised an eyebrow, "So, Brother Tang is confident he can win?"
"I can't say I have a hundred percent certainty, but I do have ninety percent." Tang Youning said.
"Then I'll… wait patiently for good news."
"Heh…" Tang Youning glanced at the swaggering Lin Yang, then turned and left.
"If you keep staring blindly, I'll punch your eyes out." Lin Yang pretended to swing a fist.
Tang Youning ignored him and slammed the big door shut.
"Bang!"
A gust of strong wind blew by, nearly hitting Lin Yang's bridge of the nose.
"Yo, this kid's temper's pretty big." Lin Yang spat.
"Let's go, back home for dinner!" Su Yang said.
At the dining table.
Lin Yang reviewed his recent performance, inhaled and said, "I guess I didn't perform well just now; I should have listened to the footsteps and then peed. When he opened the door, I could have peed on his leg."
"If later he confiscates your crime tool, you'll behave." Xi Jun said with a teasing laugh.
"He dares?!" Lin Yang's mouth curled, "If the street crowd weren't so many, I'd give him a more intense, heavy‑flavored color to look at."
Luo Shuangshuang and Qin Weiyang wore faces of contempt and disgust.
The others actually burst into noisy laughter.
Su Yang pressed his hand down, and the group put away their joking demeanor.
"This trial revealed a lot; Tang Youning isn't at all afraid of our numbers."
"Regardless of his Innate Talent rank and Gene Modification, I can't see what he's relying on at all." Jiang Chengyu nodded.
"He mentioned the keyword 'people count'; could there be an alternative way to win here?" Lu Junsheng said, puzzled.
"Winning the gamble comes down to two possibilities: either the total Faith Value we obtain exceeds the opponent's, or the opponent's Ascend God seed dies." Su Yang said.
"If we can't beat him in numbers, then his reliance must be…" Jiang Chengyu's eyes showed a sharp glare.
Su Yang nodded, "He wants to kill me in the game!"
"No way…" Lin Yang furrowed his brow, "Matchmaking is completely random; there are still nearly eight million active players, how could he gamble on such a tiny probability?"
"Perhaps the matchmaking mechanism can be tweaked?" Wei Yang's mind stirred.
Su Yang thought carefully, then said, "Maybe Wan Shi Tong uncovered some extraordinary secret for him."
