Li Wei’s Scheme

Zhang Feng was concerned about Li Wei's chances of winning the upcoming match. On the contrary, Li Wei's thoughts were nothing like his.

When he learned that Xiao Ming had a vitality rating of 8.2, he knew this was an excellent opportunity to make money. This is solely owing to the gambling dealers.

Walking toward the lounge, he overheard many audience members talking about their bets. Through this observation, Li Wei could be sure that there were a lot of active dealers in this year's competition.

Bets were placed on every game. In other words, there would undoubtedly be a market for his coming match against Xiao Ming. He could presume a large number of people had already placed their wagers. This presented a golden opportunity!

Li Wei immediately turned to his friend, "Big guy, how much money do you have left? Do you happen to know any dealers?" 

Zhang Feng was quick to respond. He peeked outside the door before approaching Li Wei and said, "Brother, are you trying to fake the match? You want me to bet on you losing?"

"Get lost." Li Wei rolled his eyes at him, then said, "Of course, you'll be betting on me to win, so go and check the odds." 

This was Li Wei's plan. Zhang Feng would find the dealer and bet all of his money. He was confident of victory so long as the opponent's vitality was less than 12 points.

It goes without saying that he would not turn up in person. Participants would be disqualified if the organizers learned they had placed wagers. Zhang Feng would be a great help for this.

"Good! Leave this to me!" Since they had been friends for a long time, they naturally had a mutual understanding. Between the two of them, there was no need for more explanation. Zhang Feng instantly pulled out his phone and dialed a dealer he knew.

Minutes later, he told Li Wei the news, "Brother, guess what? Xiao Ming's chances of winning are 1 in 0.4. You have a 1 in 1.2 chance of beating Xiao Ming. Now, every bet is the same!" The odds represent the market's opinion of the two.

More people believed that the famous Xiao Ming would win. That was why his odds were so low. In comparison, the dark horse Li Wei's odds were still high!

The odds of 1.2 were relatively high. If you bet 100 Empire Dollars, you could earn 120. After hearing this good news, Li Wei remained calm. He had already guessed the market's direction but did not expect it to be so high. 'As expected, my previous decision was correct…'

After discovering Xiao Ming's vitality value, he was already trying to guess the gamblers' thought processes. They would most likely consider two things. The first to note is that Li Wei merely used one punch to finish off Jia Yue.

It was difficult for everyone to estimate Li Wei's actual vitality, and they could only guess that the highest was around 8.3. He seemed to have the same vitality as Xiao Ming, maybe even a bit higher.

However, it was because of this that Xiao Ming's market was even more significant. One must know that although vitality determined the first criterion for the outcome of a competition, physical fitness, martial arts, experience, and other factors were equally important.

Xiao Ming was a well-known figure with rich combat experience. Even if his vitality was only a fraction lower, he could make up for it with these elements. Therefore, from the perspective of a gambler, Xiao Ming was the most stable choice.

Although the odds were only 0.3, it did not matter if they made a small profit. At least, the probability of betting on Xiao Ming winning was much higher. Even so, they did not know that Li Wei had already seen through all of this.

'It was a good thing I didn't reveal my full strength before. Otherwise, how would I earn this money?'

Li Wei was happy about the strategy he had used in the previous match. Not only then, but he also decided to slowly "release" his strength in the future. The best effect was to confuse the audience and gamblers!

The goal was still the same— as long as he was here, he had to find a way to use this platform to earn the most benefits! At this instant, Zhang Feng had also confirmed his betting amount.

"Brother, I have 3,580 Empire Dollars in cash and 200,000 Empire Dollars on my card! Don't worry! I definitely won't bet wrongly this time!"

 Zhang Feng's face also reddened when he recalled that he had bet with Han Chong. Li Wei did not think much of it, but he teased his friend, "D*mn, second generations of the rich sure are rolling in it. Two hundred thousand? Is this the pocket money a normal high school student should have?"

"Hehe, isn't this a coincidence? My mom transferred it to me yesterday, so I can use it now! With this sum, we can earn more than twenty-four!" Zhang Feng was right. If they won this time, they would earn a net profit of 240,000 Empire Dollars!

It was not a small sum of money for high school students or a martial arts farm. It would cover the farm without question! With this amount of money, he could plan to increase the land. It would be easier for him to raise his chickens and ducks this way! 

Of course, Li Wei was not going to allow his brother to pay for anything at all. He would present Zhang Feng with 30 percent of the proceeds when the time comes. As soon as the two of them had finished discussing, Zhang Feng hurried to the dealer to place a wager.

Li Wei had to prepare for his upcoming battle.
