"The cards have already been thrown out. If you pile more pressure on me now, it's unnecessary."

"The reason I said what I did is simply to show that I have enough confidence to win this!"

Pleasure's overwhelming divine power could no longer suppress Xie Antong at all, and she kept smiling as before.

On both sides of the gambling table, the two previously tense camps now sat back easily, smiling at each other.

Only now, the murderous intent emanating from both sides seemed even denser than before!

Pleasure narrowed his eyes and stared at Xie Antong. He had a persistent sense that something was off, as if this person in front of him had evolved.

It wasn't that she shouldn't be at this level, she should be able to deduce these things!

It wasn't that Pleasure didn't believe she could guess the game's rules at this moment. To be honest, even if the opponent really won this round, he wouldn't be too surprised.

But what puzzled him was the opponent's temperament.

Pleasure found it strange that she suddenly no longer feared him. Facing him, there was a peculiar sense of... relaxation.

Because he was Pleasure, Xie Antong's body contained his divine power; she was his apostle.

So all along, he regarded her as an extension of his power, even as an amusing toy.

Every time he approached, he could sense the tautness in her that was extremely unnatural.

Even when she truly exploded in battle against him, there was always a hysterical, do-or-die intensity.

So why was it like this this time...

The Arbitrator had already placed his hands on both players' cards, proceeding with the game in an unhurried manner.

Although it was a gamble, the venue felt like the Colosseum of ancient Rome, the stands on both sides completely blazing.

"Hurry up and flip them! Let's see what the cards are; stop dawdling!"

"I'll announce something: I'm an idiot! I don't understand their game, I just want to see who wins."

"Do you really understand the rule? After it's revealed, can you explain it?"

Sometimes, the will of ten thousand people becomes power. All those shouts seemed to form a third kind of momentum in this world.

It made the Arbitrator's hands move a bit faster.

He first flipped the card in front of Pleasure. On that card of unknown material, a vivid ox was engraved.

Xie Antong had been watching that direction too. When she saw the ox, she slightly furrowed her brow.

That small movement was evidently noticed by Pleasure and by some sharp-eyed spectators.

In that charged atmosphere, even though Xie Antong herself showed nothing more, everyone's hearts were immediately gripped with tension!

Unexpectedly, Pleasure did not mock her upon seeing her expression. He only watched quietly.

Beside them, the Arbitrator's hand had already touched Xie Antong's cards, but in the next moment someone pressed down the other side of the cards!

This move made Pleasure raise his eyes slightly, not knowing what she intended.

Xie Antong suddenly acted, leaving him momentarily stunned. He turned to her with puzzled curiosity.

"What? Going to renege?"

"If you renege now, there's no chance left. Once the card is played and leaves the hand, it's confirmed. If you lose, you lose."

the Arbitrator said calmly.

"Is that all?" Xie Antong replied abruptly.

The Arbitrator: ?

"Nothing much. I just wanted to see if this move would trigger any special circumstance. It won't, right? Kind of interesting."

Pleasure's mouth twitched. Earlier he had felt something amiss. This little girl looked like someone who couldn't joke around, yet her emotions showed no trace of fear or panic.

For some reason, she was tilting toward the direction of a madman.

However, this caused Xie Antong and the Arbitrator to lock eyes for a second. The Arbitrator's hand trembling as he held the cards, a deeply buried and incredulous flicker passed through his eyes!

He stared at Xie Antong with unsettled suspicion for two seconds, then turned his head away. As a judge, he even doubted himself just now, and that was absolutely not allowed.

Finally, the three cards were still flipped: 9, 10, 11.

Three numbers floated up and formed a shield, and above the opponent's head a spectral ox slowly materialized.

Everyone, including Xie Antong and Pleasure, all looked up, waiting for the result.

Under the table, Xie Antong's hand clenched slightly. Even now, she couldn't help being a little nervous.

Boom!

Everyone knew the flow by now. The spectral ox charged, and with the blast, the ox dissipated into smoke.

The Arbitrator's announcement came simultaneously:

"Second round result: player 'Blank' wins!"

Xie Antong squeezed her fist hard!

She had won the gamble. Despite the severe lack of information, her deduction about the rules had not been wrong!

The Zodiac animal was just a decoy; the corresponding numbers were the only things that truly mattered in the gamble.

The key to victory lay in "matching." How to match depended on the characteristics of the animal's sequence number.

When all numbers are prime, "prime" should naturally be a hidden hint condition; it wouldn't appear in this form without reason.

To create a matching relationship with "prime," the most direct is the condition of being "coprime."

Whether being coprime leads to victory, or non-coprime does, depended on the previous round's result.

3 and 8 lost to the Dragon, which was 5.

Any integer obtained from operations between 3 and 8 would be coprime to 5! But since they lost, it meant you had to form non-coprime numbers to win!

As for what operations connected the numbers on one's own cards, there were simply too many possibilities. If she really thought it through, she might exhaust Lu Ce's life arranging all permutations and combinations.

So she could only look at the game's hints. The spectral shield formed by her numbers was three digits pieced together, forming one shield.

Therefore, the operation method might not be that complex; perhaps it was simply "sum"!

Although this guess wasn't especially reliable, it was the limit of what she could do. If she didn't try, merely thinking about it would never yield results!

She could only be a bit daring...

Fortunately, from now on, the mist around the game's rules had opened unilaterally for her!

The number of chips, reversed!
