Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhuang Xiaojiao was wearing pink tight-fitting sportswear today, showing off her graceful figure vividly.
Moreover, she did not put on any makeup today. Not only did she not lose her looks, but she also had a natural beauty.
At this moment, she was leaning against a Porsche Taycan, and everyone turned to look at her.
Many people had already walked over, but they quickly pretended to turn back just to admire her beauty.
Ye Feng yawned as he walked over. “What are you trying to do?”
Zhuang Xiaojiao could not help but tease him when she saw how tired he looked. “What did you do last night? Why does it look like you’ve been sucked dry of yang qi?”
Ye Feng immediately retaliated: “Yo, you know quite a lot, you even know how to absorb yang qi? So you’ve smoked before?”
Zhuang Xiaojiao glared at him. “Yes, I’ve sucked yours before, okay?”
Ye Feng placed his arm under her nose. “It’s alright, inhale more, I don’t mind.”
Zhuang Xiaojiao immediately pushed his arm away in disgust. “It stinks. Didn’t you take a shower?”
Ye Feng rubbed his stomach. “You were rushing me so much, I haven’t even had breakfast, let alone take a shower.’
“Let’s go register first, then I’ll take you out to eat,” Zhuang Xiaojiao said as she opened the car door.
Ye Feng could only sit in the front passenger seat.
“Where are we going?” As the car drove out of the urban area, Ye Feng could not help but feel curious.
“I’ll take you to play a game. I heard it’s very fun.” Zhuang Xiaojiao was instantly energized at the mention of games.
“What game? Why do we have to run so far?” Ye Feng took out a bag of snacks from the car, barely filling his stomach.
“Have you heard of Squid Games?” Zhuang Xiaojiao clenched her fists tightly when she saw him stealing her snacks.
“Squid games? Can it be eaten?” Ye Feng had obviously never heard of this name.
“What a country bumpkin. You haven’t even heard of the Squid Games?” Zhuang Xiaojiao glanced at him in disdain.
“Isn’t it just a lousy game? Haven’t you heard of it before?” Ye Feng obviously did not agree with her statement.
“Squid Games is a TV series. It tells the story of a group of people being brought to a closed space to play a game. Those who clear the game will be rewarded, and those who fail will face the punishment of death…” Zhuang Xiaojiao briefly explained the plot.
“What does this have to do with the game we’re going to play?” Ye Feng was getting more and more confused.
“Now, someone has introduced Squid Games into the country and turned it into a real-life game.” Zhuang Xiaojiao got excited again when she talked about the game.
“This… If you fail, you will also face the punishment of death?” Ye Feng was stunned. He even forgot to eat his snacks.
“Puchi!” Zhuang Xiaojiao was amused. “It’s not that scary. Do you think it’s a concentration camp? Those who participate in the game have to pay a certain registration fee. If you fail, you will be eliminated. The registration fee is not refundable. If you win, you will receive a large prize money…”
Ye Feng’s interest waned as he listened. “It’s not exciting at all.”
“The first place will receive a 100 million prize,” Zhuang Xiaojiao added.
“That’s quite interesting.” Ye Feng also became spirited.
Zhuang Xiaojiao could not help but roll her eyes when she saw his money-grubber look. “You’re a billionaire now. Shouldn’t you have lost interest in money? Why are you so excited when you hear about money?”
Ye Feng pursed his lips. “Those who say they are not interested in money are just acting tough. Who would complain about having too much money?”
Zhuang Xiaojiao continued, If you’re so confident in yourself, you can bet on yourself to win. The rewards will be even greater.”
Ye Feng’s eyes lit up again. “You can bet?”
“That’s right. How else would the organizers make money?” Zhuang Xiaojiao nodded.
When Ye Feng heard this, he was filled with interest in this game.
When the two of them arrived at the venue, it was already crowded.
Ye Feng remembered that this place used to be a barren land. It had been transformed into a simple stadium.
Outside the stadium, there were many small vendors selling all kinds of breakfast and drinks.
He was famished, so he didn’t care about hygiene. He went to buy a pancake and a plate of grilled cold noodles and started eating without caring about his image.
Zhuang Xiaojiao swallowed her saliva when she saw him eating so happily. However, she was still a person who cared about her dignity. She could not be like him… Yes, down-to-earth.
There were two reception windows at the entrance of the stadium.
One was for signing up for the game, and the other was for betting.
There was already a long queue in front of both windows.
Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaojiao split the work. The latter went to the registration window to line up, while the former went to the betting window to line up.
Zhuang Xiaojiao finished registering first and walked over with their number tags. “I’m number 520, you’re number 521.”
As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something, and her pretty face instantly blushed.
Ye Feng asked a question that made her speechless: “There are actually so many people participating in the game?”
Zhuang Xiaojiao glared at him. “What a blockhead.”
At this time, it was Ye Feng’s turn to place his bet.
There was a touch screen in the betting window. On it was the participant’s number, photo, height, weight, IQ, and other comprehensive information. The organizers also gave different odds based on the ability of these players.
The higher the ability, the lower the odds.
Ye Feng focused on the few players with the lowest odds. They were all very strong.
For example, there was a player who was a retired Special Forces soldier. Whether it was his reaction, stamina, endurance, speed, and other aspects, he was far superior to the other players. Therefore, the odds were only 1 to 1.1. In other words, if you bet 1 yuan and this player wins, you could only get 1.1 yuan at most.
Other than this player, there was also a professional Go player. It was said that his IQ was as high as 150. In terms of IQ, he crushed most people, so the odds were also very low.
Other than these types of cheaters, anyone who had skills, such as running fast or having great strength, were also popular players.
Of course, there were also people who lied about their information. They were obviously strong but they hid their strength, like Ye Feng.
This would require the person who placed the bet to weigh it themselves. Otherwise, why would it be called a bet?
“Hey, can you hurry up? There are still so many people behind.”
Because Ye Feng had taken up too much time, many people were already dissatisfied.
Ye Feng could only quickly find his and Zhuang Xiaojiao’s numbers.
When he saw it, he almost cursed.
The official evaluation of Ye Feng was contestant number 521.
[Height: 184 cm] [Weight: 72 kg]
[Age: 21 years old] [Occupation: University student.]
[Proficiency: None.] [Hobbies: None.]
[Medical history: None.]
[Comprehensive evaluation: Skinny body, less experience, unknown ability… 1 to 10.]
The odds were already very high among the male players, but it was better than some disabled players.
In other words, he was being looked down upon..
