1175: Chapter 297_5 1175: Chapter 297_5 Speaking, he paused for a moment and continued, “It’s not that I refuse to have a debate on the principles with you.
However, such a debate should involve some stakes.
Do you dare?”
“Joke.
I, this young master, have never known the word ‘dare not’.” Qu Wu sneered dismissively and looked at Cao Zhen, “It’s just that I don’t know what you could possibly offer.”
“Do you think this is enough?”
Upon hearing this, Cao Zhen took out a tower, looking towards Qu Wu, as everyone already knew he and Immortal Bi Yue had vied for several towers, so taking out such a tower was naturally not a problem.
“That’s fine.” Qu Wu’s face showed a hint of satisfaction, as he too took out a tower from his Qiankun Bag.
Since someone was giving this tower to him, it was only natural he would not refuse.
If there were enough towers, it would also be easier for him to negotiate terms with people from the Five Sounds Sect.
Although he also entered the path through Musical Rhythm, these towers were not of much use to him.
In the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, these towers were precious.
However, once the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth concludes and the masters above the Earth Immortal Realm awaken, these towers would lose their worth.
For the people of the Five Sounds Sect who are experiencing their Sect Tribulation, now is when these towers are most valuable.
After he took out the tower, he spoke, “Since the stakes are set, shall we begin?
Although both of us entered through the path of Musical Rhythm, our expertise in musical instruments is different.
You could bring out your most proficient instrument, and I will use my best instrument too.”
“Wait a moment…” As Qu Wu, who was about to start the debate, was standing in front of him, Cao Zhen gently waved his hand and said, “I haven’t finished bringing out the stakes.”
As he spoke, he took out a pagoda from the Qiankun Bag.
Since stakes were being put forth, the more, the better, to win big at once.
In one breath, Cao Zhen took out six pagodas from the Qiankun Bag and said to Qu Wu, “Six pagodas.
Do you dare to bet?”
As these six pagodas appeared, exclamations of surprise erupted around them.
“Six pagodas, I’ve only seen these pagodas but never managed to snatch even one.
They actually managed to snatch six pagodas!”
“The six pagodas weren’t snatched by him alone.
Don’t you see whom he’s with?
That’s Immortal Bi Yue.”
“Isn’t it curious?
All the pagodas are in his hands, not in Immortal Bi Yue’s?”
“What’s so curious about that?”
“How can it not be curious?
Immortal Bi Yue is at the limit of the Golden Core Stage, items would naturally be safer in her hands.
He’s merely a presence of Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills, if he is killed by others, wouldn’t the towers fall into others’ hands?”
“That’s true.”
“However, I remember hearing before that they only had five pagodas.
I don’t know when they managed to get the sixth one!”
“They are directly betting six pagodas; who do you think will win between the two?”
“Of course, it’s Young Master Qu Wu.
The saying ‘Young Master Wu is not wrong’ isn’t just for fun, and among the five Musical Rhythm experts, the strongest is Qu Wu.”
“But since Cao Zhen dared to challenge the debate and even proposed to have stakes, risking to put forth so many pagodas, doesn’t he have confidence?”
In the distance, several from the Demon Sound Sect, watching Cao Zhen and Immortal Bi Yue at the center of everyone’s attention, revealed a puzzled look.
They clearly sent people to kill Cao Zhen, whose death should have been assured by their plan, yet Cao Zhen was still alive, but none of those they sent returned.
No matter how strong Immortal Bi Yue is, she couldn’t possibly protect Cao Zhen from that many attackers.
What changed unexpectedly?
In the crowd, Little Bei Yan, watching his master taking out the six pagodas, lamented to his companions through a psychic message: “It’s a pity, such a pity that we should have given two more pagodas to Master, then he could have won eight pagodas in one go.”
He had no doubt that his master would lose as his master is a reincarnated Great Ability!
Facing Cao Zhen, Young Master Qu Wu saw the six pagodas appear before him, astonishment and uncertainty shining in his eyes.
He, together with the Zhui Hun Demon and other masters from the Soul Breaking Sect, had only just managed to secure six pagodas.
Cao Zhen and Bi Yue had actually seized six pagodas directly.
After the surprise, a hint of joy emerged on his face.
If they could get six more pagodas, they would have twelve pagodas altogether.
At that point, he would be more confident when negotiating with the Five Sounds Sect.
Unfortunately, these pagodas were not solely his.
He also took out three pagodas from his Qiankun Bag and then turned to Zhui Hun, saying, “Brother Zhui Hun, please take out three pagodas to show them.”
He and Zhui Hun Demon were in alliance; he took responsibility for all matters related to Musical Rhythm, while other issues were handled by Zhui Hun.
The treasures they obtained were split evenly between them, with only three pagodas in his possession and the other three in Zhui Hun’s.
Zhui Hun Demon, hesitating to take out the pagodas immediately, transmitted a message with some concern to Qu Wu, “Brother Wu, are you sure about this?
The opponent bringing out so many treasures must be extremely confident.”
“Rest assured, Brother Zhui Hun,” replied Young Master Qu Wu through a psychic message.
“I understand what you are worried about, after all, I also heard rumors that this Cao Zhen doesn’t even need to listen to the sounds in the tower for long to resonate with them.”
