tage. There was a possibility that they might even make it to the semifinals

Due they reached the semifinals, it meant they would be among the top four.

Being among the top four would bring graficant prestige to the Edwards family in the gem industry, and their business would soar to new heights

Whether they became clampions or runners–up, their business would undoubtedly thrive if they could make it to the finals

Therefore, Lake did not want Hickman to give up.

Hickman glared at him and coldly said. “What’s more important, winning the championship or my life? Do you think I can sinvive facing these people

Luke was left speechless by lus words.

He aho saw that Huck Alexander, Chambers Anderson, Morris Rodriguez, the long–haired youth, and the silent young girl were all formidable characters

When those people made a move, they either sent their opponents flying or drew blood.

No matter how skilled Hickman was in his appraisal techniques, he was no match for this group of ruthless and wicked experts. He could either be seriously injured or killed.

It was evident that Hickman was scared!

Not to mention that Hickman was scared. Even Luke, who personally witnessed those people killing others, felt a chill down Jus spine.

He tried putting himself in Hickman Adams‘ shoes and realized avoiding confrontation was the best approach against those people!

Only by evading their aggression can one live comfortably.

“Mr. Adams, are you going to abstain?” the host asked.

“After I abstain, will I be able to keep all these emerald pendants?” Hickman asked.

“As long as they are the emerald pendants you appraised during the competition, they will all belong to you,” the host replied.

“Okay, I abstain.” Hickman said solemnly

Haylan Jaber. Huck Alexander, Morris Rodriguez, and those people were as strong as monsters. He dared not confront them head–on and did not have the ability to do so.

At this moment, all he could do was retreat swiftly.

After confirming Hickman’s abstention through multiple inquiries, the host sighed and said, “That’s really a pity.”

Then, he announced Hickman’s abstention through the broadcast.

Hickman took the emerald pendants he had appraised and turned to look at Haylan, saying, “Mr. Jaber, I wish you good

luck.”

After saying that, he left the scene with Luke and his son, then watched from the outside.

He sensed that what would follow would be a true clash of titans, something an ordinary person like him could not participate in

With Hickman’s elimination, only six people remained in the arena. If they were grouped in threes, two groups advance to the semifinals.

would

However, a voice came through the earpiece of the host.

Upon hearing this voice, the host’s expression changed, and then he shouted loudly, “Ladies and gentlemen, according to the

organizer’s request, the next round will be a group of six

The rules remain the same, Whoever can find the most valuable and highest–quality geinstones will emerge victorious. There are no other rules.”

Please, all six contestants, move to the red area.

Upon hearing this statement, many spectators at the scene exchanged puzzled looks.

With only six people remaining, grouped together, and only one spot for victory, it would be a fierce battle to the bitter endi

“It’s going to be a spectacle! A six–person fight”

“Come on, let’s place our bets. Guess who will come out on top? There are odds for each contender.”

“Wow, the bookmaker is really biased, huh? The odds for Haylan Jaber winning are three times higher, while Huck Alexander’s odds are only 1.3?”

“Well, that’s obvious. Haylan Jaber may be powerful, but when it comes to gemstone battles, Huck Alexander is the true expert.‘

“Look, Morris Rodriguez’s odds of winning are also quite low, only 1.2”

“Morris Rodriguez is a Dragon Seeker, immersed in this field for decades. His mastery of the art of seeking the dragon and striking its acupoint has reached a level of perfection. Moreover, he is an eight–star general–class master. He is bound to win this time!”

“Come, come, come. Don’t miss it. Come and place your bets.”

Outside the spectator stands, a cunning–looking young man had set up an informal betting booth and was enthusiastically calling out to attract all the spectators to come and place their bets.

As this betting booth appeared, many spectators flocked to it, discussing and debating among themselves.

Upon seeing this scene, Karen Zane furrowed her brow and was about to go over and intervene.

However, Mr. Zabel quickly grabbed her arm and shook his head, whispering. “This is Demigod Steve Sky’s younger brother, Steve Shock!

“His appearance sometimes signifies the presence of Steve Sky himself. It’s best if you don’t get involved.”

Karen Zane frowned but ultimately decided not to interfere.

After all, Steve Sky was soon to be crowned the champion, and it was wise not to offend anyone from the Sky lineage.

“Everyone, have you seen that long–haired man, the Four–sea Traveler? His capability is immeasurable; he’s at least a

nine–star General!”

“His stone–detecting skills are impressive. I’ve been observing him for a while, and he can unearth exceptional top–grade emerald pendants worth a fortune every time.”

“It is said that he comes from a mysterious place, making him a dark horse with the potential to win the championship.” “As for the young maiden, her name is Lindsey Scott, and she possesses formidable credentials, approaching the level of a god–class expert.”

“According to the information she provided, she hails from an accomplished and enigmatic sect, and her stone–detecting skills are top–notch. She is also a strong contender for the championship and should not be underestimated.”

“Morris Rodriguez, Chambers Anderson, and Huck Alexander, these three individuals are incredibly formidable. They are definitely the top contenders for the championship.”

“As for Haylan Jaber, although he may surpass Robert Bard in terms of abilities, this competition is not just about strength but also about stone–detecting skills. He is the underdog, and I don’t really believe he can win.”

*Everyone, don’t just stand idle. Hurry up and place your bets. As the house, I accept any amount of money.”

After realizing that no one was paying attention to him, Steve became even more reckless, shouting and urging the live audience to come and place their bets while pretending to analyze the situation. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

In his analysis, everyone else was either a dark horse or a top contender, except for Haylan Jaber, who was considered an underdog with the highest odds.

Steve looked down on Haylan jaber!

“I’m betting on Lindsey Scott!”

“I think Four–sea Traveler can wind”

Tm betting on

Morris Rodriguez!”

Many audience niebers at the venue saw the opportunity to place their bets and eagerly pulled out money to participate However there were not inany people supporting Haylan Jaber.

Just as everyone was enthusiastically engaged in the activity, a clear and melodious voice was heard.

Reign Labenz appeared at the betting counter and dropped a check worth 20 million dollars, betting on Haylan to win.
