In the silent VIP room, the croupier was already in position, displaying the newly unsealed deck of cards in his hand.

Texas Hold'em rules, a base bet of ten million, no upper limit.

"First hand, let's test our luck?"

Ling Zhou smiled and threw a stack of chips into the pot, then looked at Ji Jue, who was casually flipping through the rule manual he had asked the croupier for, indifferently throwing in ten million in chips.

After the two hole cards were dealt, three community cards were revealed.

Hearts 5, Spades A, Clubs 2.

In the betting round, Ling Zhou glanced at his hole cards, then casually raised by five million, Ji Jue called. The fourth community card was Hearts 7, Ling Zhou raised another five hundred thousand, Ji Jue looked at the manual and called...

The fifth community card was Diamonds 9.

Without any hesitation or delay, after the first round concluded, both players revealed their cards.

Ji Jue had two pairs, Hearts 5, Spades 5, Diamonds 2, Clubs 2.

Ling Zhou also had two pairs, Spades A and Hearts A, Diamonds 9 and Clubs 9.

"Oh? Seems like my luck is pretty good today?" Ling Zhou laughed, pocketing the fifty million bet, then looked at Ji Jue: "Want to change the deck, change your luck?"

"No need, I'm starting to understand a bit now."

Ji Jue put down the rule manual, smiled slightly, unconcerned: "Let's continue."

Thus, the second round began.

For some reason, the temperature in the VIP room seemed to be subtly rising, even those who were mere spectators couldn't help but feel a sense of unease and anxiety. Meanwhile, all eyes were fixed on the table and any clues on the two players.

In the second hand, Ji Jue folded at the first face-up card, losing another ten million.

"So quickly two fingers have vanished just like that."

Ji Jue sighed, looked up: "Do I cut them off now?"

Ling Zhou continued to smile: "No rush, let's wait until we have a pair."

In the third hand, Ling Zhou folded, Ji Jue regained a million, the situation seemed to improve, but in the fourth hand, three of a kind versus a full house, he lost another forty million, winning back ten million in the fifth hand, the sixth, seventh...

The mountain of chips beside him seemed to be manipulated by an invisible hand, rapidly diminishing.

From the precise sound of the croupier dealing cards, even the sound of breathing in the entire VIP room became so clear.

The ninth hand!

The last face-up card revealed, Diamonds A.

In the midst of silence, Ji Jue remained silent for a long time, then suddenly looked up at Ling Zhou, who was holding chips, casually sneering at his apathetic appearance.

But then suddenly, Ji Jue's voice sounded: "ALL-IN."

"Are you sure?" Ling Zhou was slightly taken aback, frowning.

"Hmm, is it not allowed by the rules?"

Ji Jue glanced at the manual, smiled: "I grew up watching movies about gambling, everyone shouts like this at least once, right?"

The croupier was stunned, looking at Ling Zhou.

Until Ling Zhou shifted his gaze from Ji Jue, waving his hand: "I'll call."

He originally thought this kid might have some tricky maneuvers, but now it seemed he was just an ignorant fool.

Today these hands, he was determined to win!

The pot and the raised bets, plus all the chips Ji Jue had left. The bets on the table immediately soared to two hundred and ten million!

"Showdown—"

Ling Zhou stared directly at Ji Jue, until the two black hole cards in Ji Jue's hand slowly revealed.

Then he froze on the spot, stunned, unable to help but widen his eyes as the golden silkwood gambling table cracked underneath his hand.

Ji Jue's two hole cards, combined with the five community cards on the table.

Spades 4, Spades 5, Spades J, Spades Q, Spades A.

Flush!!!

In contrast, Ling Zhou's best hand was only a straight!

In an instant, the situation was reversed.

"Phew, that was thrilling."

Ji Jue wiped his brow with his hand, genuinely marveling: "Such a huge win from one hand? Playing cards is really fun."

Ling Zhou remained silent, not speaking.

He looked at him for a long time.

Sighed lightly, nodding: "Yeah."

He glanced at the person beside him, waved to the croupier: "Continue."

In the monitoring room, everyone was in a daze, the supervisor picked up the intercom, questioning the other end.

But in the luxury suite, Booker of the Ether Path Cranjier suddenly stood up, looking at the broadcasted image on the screen, then abruptly turning to the table.

On the crimson scales, the weight remained the same, unchanged...

But if nothing had changed, just from that one hand, Ji Jue should have lost and had to cut off his hand!

Cranjier remained silent, holding his breath, tentatively reaching out his hand... yet the moment before his hand touched the scale, the seemingly rusted balance rod suddenly flipped over.

The weight of the silver-white weight instantly soared, pressing down!

Fate and fortune, suddenly changed?

Just at this moment?!

Cranjier was frozen, sitting on the sofa, unresponsive to the calls and urgings from others.

His pale pupils stared intently at the ends of the scales, countless faint lines seemed intertwined in the eye whites, falling on the two weights, suddenly the color of dozens of lines around the silver weight gradually changed, as if revealing their true form.

Cranjier twitched, abruptly raised his head, his pale eyes looking at the bearded man:

"Tell Gao Yue, we need to increase the payment! I want triple!"

The bearded man turned pale, walked aside to make a phone call, quickly received a reply, then turned back and nodded.

So, Cranjier extended his hand again, pressing down on the scales, as scarlet blood and spiritual essence surged forth, irrigating. Screams suddenly erupted, convulsing.
