Xie Jiuniang and Xuanyuan You's shrewd tactics left some of the sober onlookers utterly dumbfounded.
"Can it really be done like this?"
"Turning a challenge into a business transaction?"
The two of them were quite professional about it, cajoling and then registering participants.
But the number of those duped wasn't as high as imagined, only a hundred, and then no matter how much she cajoled, nobody else stepped forward.
"I'm saying, aren't you really going to challenge me? I'll only accept it this once, miss it and the chance is gone," Xie Jiuniang announced nonchalantly.
Someone in the crowd behind her laughed, "Little Profiteer, they got scared."
"Right, right, they chickened out. They yelled so loud before, but it turns out they're all cowards."
"They must have come to stir up trouble at our Tianxu Sect on purpose."
"I suspect that's the case!"
The crowd standing behind wasn't made up of outsiders, but disciples of the Sect who had come over to enjoy the spectacle.
