There is a lord who just wants to draw cards, what's wrong with that?

However, when they visited the 'Gem Market', they met a classmate.

Wilcost was there too. When he saw Domi and his group coming over, he immediately walked up to them with a smile and said hello:

"Dear students, ah, I am so lucky to meet Princess Xia, what a coincidence."

"What are you doing here, Wilcoster?" Nancy might be the only one who remembered the names of other classmates.

He pointed to the crowded place behind him and said, "As you can see, this is the gem market that specializes in selling blue-eye gems. The blue-eye raw gems mined from the mines will be sold here. If you are lucky, you may be able to make several times the money at once."

The so-called blue-eye stone is a kind of gem that is as green as a green mountain.

"Is the Blue Eye Stone so valuable?" Ai Wei asked puzzled.

Edward has some knowledge in this area and explained: "Ordinary blue-eye stones are of course not valuable, and even ordinary families can afford them. The blue-eye stones here are probably the magical blue-eye gems that can nourish wind magicians."

Wilcost nodded repeatedly: "Student Edward knows a lot, how about it, do you want to go in and gamble?"

"No, I have no interest in gambling."

"Really? There's a competition going on here. The person who bets on the best appearance will get the Blue-Eyed Stone King from the organizer. What a pity." Wilcoster showed a regretful expression. "If you can wear the Blue-Eyed Stone King all year round, a wind magician like Ai Wei will definitely benefit greatly."

"I don't need it. Let's go." Ai Wei refused very straightforwardly and was not interested in the so-called Blue-Eyed Stone King.

But Edward changed his mind and after some consideration he decided to go!

Argyle quickly pulled him back and whispered, "This place is owned by Cumberbatch. Wilcoster is obviously trying to cheat you. He's not trying to cheat you of this little money, but of your face! Our family's business here may also be affected."

"But if I defeat their Blue-Eyed Stone King, then they will be the ones who get cheated and lose face, right? Don't worry, big brother. I have confidence."

Edward insisted on doing so, so everyone had no choice but to follow him in.

The raw stone is covered with a layer of rough stone, and it is almost impossible to see what is hidden inside with the naked eye.

In the middle of the gambling stone field of the gem market, there is a large area filled with unopened blue-eye raw stones. The spectators are on the first floor, while the gamblers can go to the second floor and point out which one they want to open as if they were pointing out a vast world.

Then a professional will come over and cut the rough stone in front of everyone, and the quality of the stone will be clear at a glance.

While Wilcoster was walking ahead, Domi came to Edward and whispered to him:

"I know which rough stone has material. I'll help you."

Domi has an analysis panel. Just by scanning the raw stone, he can know whether there is any high-quality blue-eye stone in it.

But Edward shook his head:

"Thank you for your kindness, Domi, but I want to win this Blue-Eyes Stone King myself. That will make it meaningful."

Chapter 176-175- Azure Eye Stone

"After paying 1000 gold royals, each customer will have three chances to gamble on the stone, and then take the best one as the 'score'. The deadline is pm," Wilcoster personally explained the so-called rules of the game after everyone was seated.

"If no one can find a better Blue Eye Stone than Edward before five o'clock, then Edward will be the winner, and the Blue Eye Stone King will be yours."

"Can we take a look at the Blue-Eyed Stone King first?"

Edward didn't seem as impetuous as Domi imagined. Could he really be a genius in appraising treasures?

"Of course!"

Wilcoster, as the young master here, clapped his hands, and a servant brought the heavy treasure chest and brought this rare treasure.

The treasure chest slowly opened. Even before he saw the contents, Domi could feel the strong scent of wind. It was clearly a vigorous wind, yet it was as steady and gentle as a mountain range, and as deep as the sea.

"A rare treasure." Domi commented in advance.

After Domi said this, others also became interested.

Wilcost was pleased with their response:

"All spiritual things recognize their masters. When the owner drips blood on them, the aura will not leak out, but will nourish its master instead. Therefore, this Blue-Eyed Stone King still has no name, waiting for the destined person to give it one."

"Okay, that's fine." Edward nodded, a determined look flashing in his eyes.

"Take it down."

"Yes, my lord."

"No, just leave it here. It will be mine soon anyway." Edward stopped the servant.

The servant looked at Wilcoster for help. He nodded to indicate his agreement, then narrowed his eyes and said with interest:

"It seems that Mr. Edward is very confident."

"Isn't this nonsense? Why would I come here if you don't have confidence?"

Wilcoste's eyes twitched slightly: "Then I will wait for good news from Edward."

"No, no, no, don't wait," Edward said again, "It's boring to play with these people, Wilcoster, how about we have a bet? The rules are the same as the competition, and the stakes are still the Blue-Eyes Stone King. If you want to add something, that's fine."

"Student Edward, you are joking. How can you change the rules of a competition for the public just because of you?"

"Does the Cumberbatch family still need to care about the opinions of these common people? Or... classmate Wilcoster, you can't afford the gamble?"

Ai Wei was shocked. She had never seen Edward so strong and aggressive, but it was indeed a relief.

Wilcoster hesitated. If the bet was escalated to him and Edward, it would make it clear which side would lose face. Whoever lost would suffer a direct blow to the other side's reputation.

Moreover, he took out something as valuable as the Blue-Eyed Stone King as a bet, so the impact would definitely not be small.

But on second thought, it is not impossible. After all, this is his home ground. No matter how powerful Edward is, can he be as powerful as the entire team of treasure appraisers of the Cumberbatch family here?

I can't lose, this is a must-win bet, the advantage is in me!

After thinking it over again and again, Wilcoster finally agreed to Edward's continuous provocation.

"I accept this bet, but I'll pay with the Blue-Eyes Stone King, and I need you, Edward, to add some chips to the bet."

"That's normal, just tell me what you want."

"How about half of Blofeld's assets in Kalia? The Blue-Eyes Stone King is worth the price."

Argyle was shocked after hearing this. If half of the industry was given to Cumberbatch, it would be difficult to keep the other half. It was equivalent to giving the entire Kalia market share to Cumberbatch. This was already a gamble!

"Hey Edward, this bet is no longer a small matter! Wake up."

"Don't panic, brother. I know what's going on."

Looking at Edward's condition, it is estimated that even ten cows would not be able to pull him back. Argyle could only pray that God would bless Edward.

"Come on, Wilcoster."

"readily!"

"But we have to take turns choosing stones. I want to go first."

"no problem."

Soon, the news of the bet between Edward and Wilcoster spread, and more and more people rushed over like sharks smelling blood.

Those who had participated in the competition before dared not say anything, but after receiving a full refund, they also went to join in the fun excitedly.

Under the gaze of countless spectators, Edward and his friends sat across from Wilcoster and a whole team of treasure appraisers on the second floor. Between them were piles of rough stones waiting to be cut.

A middle-aged man in a black suit stood on the platform in the middle of the first floor. He was the person in charge here and now acted as a temporary referee.

"Now, the gambling game between Master Wilcost and Master Edward officially begins. According to the agreement, Master Edward will make the first choice."

Under the nervous expressions of his friends and the gazes of the huge audience, Edward picked a piece at random as if without thinking.

Those in the audience who had a bit of discerning eyes shook their heads secretly. Their years of experience in gambling on gemstones told them that this raw stone was definitely waste and would not produce anything good.

Sure enough, after being cut open by professionals, they found only a few pieces of blue-eye stone inside, without even a large piece of formed blue-eye stone, let alone the quality.

The treasure appraisers on the opposite side laughed in disdain at the situation, and then after some screening, they directly selected a top-quality blue-eye stone for Wilcoster, which was already quite good in terms of quality.

But this competition is to choose the best one out of the three. If Edward is extremely lucky, this Blue Eye Stone may not be qualified.

Therefore, Wilcost did not take it lightly. Rather, he would not let his guard down until the last moment.

Even when the treasure appraisal team was feeling complacent, they poured cold water on them:

"Everyone, concentrate. The next one must be better than the previous one."

On the other side, even Nancy and Naz were worried about Edward.

They didn't know how much Blofeld's half of the property in Kalia was worth, but Domi and Argyle knew that the wealth on paper was enough to buy half of Nancy's home.

The judge immediately labeled the blue-eye stones in the two newly opened rough stones. Edward's was unformed, while Wilcoster's was B+.

High judgment.

Given Edward's ability to break stones, no one present, except Domi and the others, would think that Edward could win.

Then the second round of stone selection began.

Edward, who had the first move, still picked one at random. On the other hand, the 'professional team' observed for a longer time than last time, but they really opened a higher level of Blue Eye Stone for them, which was enough for A.

When it reaches A level, it already has a strong magical power, and Wilcost is very satisfied with it.

There may only be one high-quality blue-eye stone like this in a batch of raw stones.

Edward also made progress this time. Although it was only of C quality, it was a very large piece. If it were given to ordinary gamblers, he would not lose money. But it would be a fantasy to think that he could beat Wilcoster.

"This is the last chance," Argyle reminded.

"I know. Don't panic. I have the advantage." Edward was still full of confidence. "Just wait and see how I can turn the tide."

Domi's eyes became strange...

Round three.

Everyone was sweating. If Edward could get a perfect Blue Eye Stone in the last round, it would be a sure win! The show would be as good as it could be!

This is also what these spectators want to see the most.

"Young Master, we really can't pick a better one this round than the last one..."

Wilcost was quite satisfied with the previous one, and asking them to come up with a better one was really too much to ask, and it was not possible under the limited conditions.

"Well, next you just need to pick out the tallest of the short guys. I want to make sure Edward has no chance of winning. You will benefit from it later."

"Young Master is so generous!"

"We will do our best!"

This time, Edward ordered another one at random. The crowd wailed and some even left early.

Wilcoster opened a B grade, even if it wasn't an A, at least it reduced the possibility of Edward opening a B.

And Edward was only C-level even until the end.

"It looks like the dust has settled." Wilcoste shouted from across the river, his tone unable to hide the pride in his voice.

"Edward, you...ah..."

"Uncle Carlos will beat your ass if he finds out."

Wilcost walked over through the corridor and said to him face to face: "I hope that Mr. Edward will accept the loss of the bet. I will gladly accept all of Blofeld's assets. Please don't blame me~"

"It's too early to open the champagne halfway through, isn't it? The bet isn't over yet."

Edward's shocking words made Wilcost frown:

"Are you trying to cheat?"

"How is that possible, ladies and gentlemen! Open your eyes and take a good look! Judge, please bring out the second rough stone I opened."

The large C-grade Blue Eye Stone was brought up again.

Edward turned to Domi and said, "Domi, you should have found it, can you help me take it out?"

"of course."

Under the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Domi walked to the first floor and came to the raw stone that had been cut.

He is not a professional cutter, but what he is going to cut next is something that even professional cutters cannot do.

Domi took out the dagger "Night Slaughter" from somewhere and cut another half of the Blue Eye Stone.

One knife... Two knives...

Until the fifth cut, a ray of blue-green color bloomed from inside, almost blinding the eyes of all the stone gamblers.

The person in charge and referee who had seen countless Blue Eyes Stones couldn't even speak clearly, and his whole body was trembling:
