After all, Zhao Qian has been handling guns for so many years; he couldn't possibly lose to Wu Mingcheng so easily. There must be some other tricks Zhao Qian hasn't pulled yet.
Zhao Qian seemed somewhat worried that Wu Mingcheng might change his mind and refuse to agree.
Before Wu Mingcheng could continue speaking, the conversation shifted directly to the next topic.
He said again,
"Hehe, Young Master Wu, since we're going to have a shooting contest, there's not much point in just doing it like this. How about we add some stakes?"
Zhao Qian thought to himself, "If you, Wu Mingcheng, dare to agree today, I will make sure you lose all your reputation in the capital. Let's see how you can ever be on top of me again."
Wu Mingcheng squinted at Zhao Qian, revealing his true colors.
Just as Zhao Qian suggested playing for stakes, Wu Mingcheng felt a chill run down his spine; this was clearly a hostile move.
Although he felt somewhat apprehensive and uncertain, he believed in the system's amazing capabilities and thought it wouldn't let him down.
Lu Sheng, who was standing to the side, spoke up.
"Mingcheng, maybe we shouldn't..."
Before Lu Sheng could speak, Wu Mingcheng waved his hand, interrupting him.
Seeing this, Lu Sheng stopped speaking and waited for Wu Mingcheng to make a decision.
Duan Hao and Zhang Haoxuan, standing beside him, also looked at Wu Mingcheng. They didn't say much, but firmly supported Wu Mingcheng's decision.
They all understood Wu Mingcheng's character: he was a man of his word, and he was extremely cautious before making any decision.
Wu Mingcheng looked at the smug Zhao Qian and said, "You can be smug all you want now, but I'll make you cry later."
Wu Mingcheng remained calm and continued to smile as he spoke.
"Alright, Zhao Qian, don't I know you too well? You only have those petty tricks up your sleeve. Hurry up and draw up the line. How do you want to play this game?"
Upon hearing this, Duan Hao and the others nearby chuckled.
Looking at their smiles, which were clearly mocking him, Zhao Qian felt a pang of bitterness.
At that moment, he thought to himself, "You're all so funny. I'll make you lose face in a minute."
He quickly considered the situation, and the person who had spoken up for Zhao Qian earlier whispered a few words in Zhao Qian's ear.
Chapter 115: Playing this big?
Upon hearing this, Zhao Qian glanced at the person beside him with an appreciative look.
He said confidently,
"Young Master Wu, how about this? I heard that Wang Lao Er gave you a piece of land in the capital."
If I win, you'll transfer that land to my name.
If I lose, I will return this woman to her rightful owner and send her back to Haozi's side.
As he spoke, he pushed the woman he was embracing forward.
The woman stood in the center of the crowd, overwhelmed with shame; she couldn't bear to face Duan Hao.
Duan Hao was also glancing at the woman out of the corner of his eye from time to time; it was impossible to know what he was thinking.
Upon hearing this, Wu Mingcheng realized it wasn't a good bet after all. Whether Zhao Qian won or lost, he would essentially suffer no loss.
Even if he loses and gives the woman to Haozi, people will only say that Duan Hao's woman was used by Zhao Qian, and it will still be Duan Hao who loses face.
Then, Zhao Qian asked,
"Young Master Wu, what do you think of my approach?"
At this moment, Wu Mingcheng turned his gaze to Duan Hao, seeking Duan Hao's opinion.
Duan Hao then noticed Wu Mingcheng's gaze; he knew that Wu Mingcheng was handing over the decision-making power to him.
Then he looked at the woman in the middle of the crowd, a pang of pity rising in his heart; after all, she was the woman he had once loved.
Duan Hao, of course, understood Zhao Qian's wishful thinking. Even if they ultimately won and the woman returned to Duan Hao's side,
People in the circle would naturally make him a laughingstock, and Wu Mingcheng and his Huaxing Society would also be humiliated because of it.
He couldn't allow Wu Mingcheng and his brothers to be looked down upon because of him.
So he shook his head slightly at Wu Mingcheng.
The woman looked at Wu Mingcheng expectantly, because since he had followed Zhao Qian, he had also learned that Duan Hao was no ordinary person.
She then realized that Zhao Qian didn't genuinely like her at all, but rather wanted to use this to get revenge on Duan Hao.
Since Zhao Qian got her, he has treated her very badly and has shown no regard for her feelings whatsoever.
He only saw her as a tool that could serve a certain purpose.
Even Zhao Qian's friends looked down on her, treating her merely as a plaything for him.
Wu Mingcheng noticed Duan Hao's actions, understood his meaning, and said to Zhao Qian,
"As expected, Young Master Zhao is very well-informed. I can give you that land, but as for this woman, let's forget about it."
My brother didn't take her seriously. Only you, Young Master Zhao, would treat a woman like a treasure and go to great lengths to pursue her.
How about this, if you lose, Young Master Zhao, how about we do some light exercise to warm up?
"You just stand around this area, hands behind your head, and do frog jumps. My punishment is quite meaningful; consider it exercise."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Haoxuan, Lu Sheng, and the others nearby chuckled.
This punishment is hilarious! If Zhao Qian loses this time, he'll lose face big time.
Zhao Qian thought to himself, "With my marksmanship, how could I possibly lose?"
Just as he was about to agree, Wu Mingcheng spoke again.
"Wait a minute, Young Master Zhao, let's go a little further and add something even more interesting."
How about you do frog jumps while shouting that you're a total idiot? Young Master Zhao, dare to bet?
At this moment, Duan Hao and the others beside him thought to themselves, Mingcheng is too ruthless. If Zhao Qian loses, how will he survive in the industry?
At that moment, Duan Hao immediately understood that Wu Mingcheng was trying to help him prove himself.
A flash of resentment crossed Zhao Qian's eyes. This punishment was utterly devastating for someone as concerned with saving face as him.
He also said at this moment.
"In that case, if you lose, you will not only have to transfer the land to my name,
You also have to shout three times that you're a big idiot. If you agree, I agree too.
Upon hearing Zhao Qian's words, Wu Mingcheng responded without hesitation.
"Alright, I agree, Young Master Zhao. Now it's up to you. Do you dare to play with me?"
Zhao Qian was immediately intimidated by Wu Mingcheng's imposing aura; he even felt that he might lose.
However, after witnessing Wu Mingcheng's marksmanship, where he only hit the three-ring mark with a single shot, he realized he could beat him even with his eyes closed.
In his view, Wu Mingcheng was not confident of victory and was trying to defy him in terms of momentum.
Wu Mingcheng wanted to back down and be the first to withdraw, but Wu Mingcheng was dreaming. She wasn't going to fall for it.
Thinking this through, he made up his mind, steeled his resolve, and said aloud,
"Okay, Wu Mingcheng, are you sure you want to go this far? I promise you, we'll play it this way."
Today I will make you, Wu Mingcheng, lose both your wife and your army, and utterly disgrace you!”
By this time, a group of second-generation rich kids, eager for a good show, had already gathered around.
After all, although Wu Mingcheng wasn't well-known in the circle, Zhao Qian, Duan Hao, Zhang Haoxuan, and Lu Sheng were all top-tier young masters in the second-generation elite circle.
These two groups belong to two major factions within the second-generation elite circles: the Huaxing Society and the Longchao Club.
The conflict between these two groups is considered a major event in the industry.

The onlookers, seeing the two sides escalating the situation so dramatically, could tell how deep their animosity ran; it seemed like a fight to the death.
However, when they saw Zhao Qian and Duan Hao among the two groups, they instantly understood.
Their feud spread throughout the second-generation elite circles, and the two were essentially locked in a life-or-death struggle.
Chapter 116 Victory is in Hand
When they heard Wu Mingcheng's name from Zhao Qian, they were immediately filled with surprise.
Zhao Qian and Wu Mingcheng are the leaders of two major groups in the circle, the Huaxing Society and the Longchao Club.
It seems today is still a contest between the leaders of two second-generation groups. What a coincidence!
However, they knew that Zhao Qian, despite being just a spoiled second-generation rich kid,
But his marksmanship was really good; he was considered one of the better marksmen in their military compound.
I wonder how good Wu Mingcheng's marksmanship is? Could he defeat Zhao Qian?
At this moment, Duan Hao saw that Zhao Qian had agreed, and Wu Mingcheng's marksmanship was clearly not very good, so his chances of winning were slim.
He then spoke to Zhao Qian,
