"I bet the Tower of Pride will be number one."

"One hundred floors!"

As soon as Wang Hao said this, the entire room fell into a deathly silence.

The onlookers exchanged bewildered glances, looking at Wang Hao as if he were a fool.

One second... two seconds... three seconds...

"Pfft! Hahahaha..."

First came a burst of laughter, and the scene immediately erupted in waves of laughter.

"Hahahaha... What did he just say? Did I hear that right?"

"Number one in the Tower of Pride, one hundred floors? Hahahaha..."

"A mere second-tier Beastmaster dares to dream of being number one in the Tower of Prodigies? Does he think we're fools?"

"Don't even mention the hundredth floor, I don't think he'll even make it past the second floor."

"That's right, the person who occupied the second floor is Xu Bin. He has the most rigid personality and is absolutely impossible to bribe."

"Yeah, does Wang Hao think others would be like him, going easy on people for short-term gains?"

…………

Hearing the mocking remarks, Wang Hao seemed not to hear them at all; instead, his smile grew even brighter, and even his paleness gradually faded.

"Since you're so confident, how about we go all out?"

"Oh? I wonder how much of a stake you, Wang Hao, can afford to offer?"

From the crowd, a young man with a black mole on his chin stepped forward, his tone carrying a hint of arrogance.

His name is Li Shan, and he was the one who first questioned Wang Hao's decision to let him off the hook.

Wang Hao raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of joy in his heart; the fish had taken the bait.

He slowly extended a finger: "Ten million! Ten million Alliance coins, I bet him a hundred floors of the Tower of Pride."

"Although I, Wang Hao, am not some top-tier figure, I have managed to save up some money. How about I play along?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shan burst out laughing.

"Ten million Alliance Coins? Wang Hao, is this what you call playing for big stakes?"

"What's the point of this little bit of money?"

"If you ask me, one hundred million! How about one hundred million?"

"You, Wang Hao, surely can produce it, right?"

Li Shan's words were full of provocation.

According to his estimate, 100 million should be Wang Hao's limit.

Even if we could produce it, it would be an amount that would require significant financial sacrifice.

He and Wang Hao belonged to the same level-two city and had been at odds since childhood. He would naturally not let go of any opportunity to take advantage of Wang Hao, especially since Wang Hao himself had offered himself up for him to do so.

Sure enough, Li Shan said this.

Wang Hao immediately showed a hint of hesitation, his face showing struggle.

Seeing this, Li Shan seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.

"What? You, Wang Hao, can't even afford this much?"

"In that case, I think you, Wang Hao, should just go back home as soon as possible, tuck your tail between your legs and hide, and don't come out here and embarrass yourself."

As Li Shan finished speaking...

Wang Hao immediately raised his head and stared at him angrily.

"You! Li Shan, who said I can't produce it!"

"Alright, one hundred million it is, let's bet!"

His face flushed red, and he looked furious and embarrassed, but in reality, he was overjoyed.

Only he himself knew just how terrifying that so-called second-tier beast tamer was.

"good!"

Li Shan made the decision decisively, seemingly afraid that Wang Hao would change his mind.

At that moment, the onlookers also started to make a fuss.

"No way, what's the point of just the two of you playing? Let us place a bet too!"

"Yes, yes, we'll participate too."

"I bet five million that the beast tamer won't be above level 20, otherwise I'll admit defeat."

"Twenty floors? I'll bet ten million on ten floors. If it goes beyond ten floors, I lose."

"I think you two are being too conservative. Fifty million, I'll bet on the fifth floor. If it goes above the fifth floor, I lose!"

……

Hearing everyone's words, Wang Hao was overjoyed and almost laughed out loud, but on the surface he pretended to struggle.

After a moment, he gritted his teeth.

"Okay! I, Wang Hao, will take it."

"What spirit!"

Li Shan laughed heartily.

"To prevent anyone from reneging, I'll personally create a contract scroll. Let's all sign the contract."

After saying that, he raised his hand and gestured.

A scroll radiating a blue glow appeared in my palm.

This is a very common contract scroll that allows for the independent writing of contract content and the simultaneous execution of contracts by multiple parties.

Once a contract is signed, it cannot be broken; otherwise, one will be punished by Heaven.

After Li Shan finished writing the contract, everyone voluntarily signed it.

Wang Hao did not hesitate and decisively completed the signing.

The next moment, the contract scroll shattered automatically, turning into specks of blue light that merged into the bodies of everyone who had signed the contract.

"Hahaha, the contract is done. Wang Hao, this time you'll probably have to spend some money."

Li Shan laughed heartily, extremely happy.

One hundred million is definitely a large sum of money, even for him.

More importantly, with the bets from others, the total comes to at least 200 million Alliance Coins.

Wang Hao has suffered far more than just financial ruin; he will likely need the help of his family to pay off his debts.

He walked up to Wang Hao, wanting to pat him on the shoulder and see the dejected and angry look on Wang Hao's face.

However, just as he stopped, he saw Wang Hao look up at him.

There was no trace of dejection or anger in his eyes, but rather a look of utter mockery.

It felt like watching a clown jumping around on a beam.

A clown jumping around?

Li Shan was stunned, followed by a deep sense of bewilderment.

Why is he looking at me like that? What gives him the right to look at me like that?

He should be angry and annoyed!

"What's with that look you're giving me?"

Li Shan asked the question.

"Nothing?"

Wang Hao laughed and instead raised his hand to pat Li Shan on the shoulder.

"I feel really bad that you had to spend so much money."

"Spending money? You're saying I spent money?"

Li Shan almost laughed out of anger.

"You don't really think this beast tamer can reach the hundredth floor of the Tower of Prodigies, do you?"

Wang Hao shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Then we'll see."

"hehe……"

Li Shan sneered.

"I hope you can still be this stubborn later!"

After saying this, he decisively turned his head and focused his gaze on the list of geniuses once again.

At that moment, his pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

The list of prodigies was prominently displayed.
