In fact, Jiangbei was a complete novice when it came to gambling on stones, as this was his first time visiting such a place and his first encounter with the practice.
Normally, unless he was incredibly lucky, picking any random stone and cutting it to reveal treasures like Imperial Green and Emerald would be next to impossible.
Otherwise, he didn't stand a chance of beating Xia Lianyun.
But a novice he may be, Jiangbei still had a means of cheating: he possessed Divine Sense.
Even though the raw stones here were made of materials that naturally blocked some probing of the Divine Sense, preventing Jiangbei from instantly gaining total insight with a sweep of his mind, a walk around, coupled with a look and a touch, would reveal the secrets of any stone he encountered.
