"Hehe!" Chris chuckled. "Since you all say that, how about we make a bet?"

"What bet?" Hearing this, Guardian Michael and Zen frowned.

"The three of us will climb the steps simultaneously. Whoever reaches the top first is the winner and

will take the bets of the other two!" Chris said, then took out a thousand-year-old Ganoderma

lucidum with a playful smile. “I obtained this from the valley. I'm willing to use it as a bet. What do

you two think?"

Upon seeing the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in Chris's hand, Guardian Michael and

Zen's eyes filled with endless greed.

The value of the thousand-year-old Ganoderma was no less than that of a thousand-year-old

ginseng. It was extremely useful for martial artists.

Seeing that Guardian Michael and Zen remained silent with greed, Chris mocked, "What, are you

afraid? Guardian Michael of the Ghost Sect and Chief Guardian of the Middleton Alliance, are you

too afraid to bet? It's truly disappointing!" Chris shook his head with a disappointed expression

Guardian Michael and Zen exchanged glances.

Then, they stared at Chris and said, "Chris, don't provoke us! Since you've said so, we'll take your

bet!"

They couldn't believe that they couldn't beat Chris with their combined strength.

Most importantly, their subordinates were watching.

If they refused to bet with Chris, they would lose their authority in front of their subordinates.

Chris had forced them into a corner with just one sentence!

"Excellent!" Chris nodded in satisfaction. "What kind of bets can you two offer? If it's too inferior, I

won't be interested!"

Chris had already offered the thousand-year-old Ganoderma.

So, the value of the items they put forth had to be no less than the Ganoderma.

With a pained expression, Zen gritted his teeth and took a thousand-year-old ginseng from his

pocket. "This is a thousand-year-old ginseng. It should suffice as a bet!"

To obtain this ginseng, Zen had lost nearly three hundred men.

Although he had consumed some for healing purposes, most of it remained.

After all, the powerful medicinal properties of the thousand-year-old ginseng couldn't be consumed

in one go.

He planned to take it back and slowly consume it, perhaps even breaking through to the next level.

But now that Chris had forced his hand, he had to use the ginseng as his bet.

Chris glanced at the ginseng and nodded. "Although it's a bit damaged, its medicinal properties

haven't diminished. It can be used as a bet!"

Upon hearing this, Zen sneered but didn't respond.

Everyone's attention then turned to Guardian Michael.

He took out an Angelica sinensis from his pocket.

"This is an eight-hundred-year-old Angelica sinensis. Though its age is less than your thousand-

year-old Ganoderma and ginseng, it's very rare. For martial artists, it can quickly replenish their

vitality. I believe it can be used as a bet!"

Chris and Zen's eyes lit up.

Although Angelica was less valuable than ginseng and Ganoderma, an eight-hundred-year-old

Angelica was not to be underestimated.

A martial artist at the peak of internal strength could break through to the grandmaster realm by

consuming an eight-hundred-year-old Angelica!

This rare treasure was extremely valuable to martial artists and couldn't be bought at any price.

"Great. Since all three of us have offered our treasures, let the bet begin!" Chris finished and threw

the thousand-year-old Ganoderma into the air.

Suddenly...
