Chapter 224: Brother Wolf Gets Hurt_1
The gold-armored giant finished his explanation and took out two wooden boxes that had been prepared in advance. One was placed in front of King Pan. The other was delivered to Jiang Zhengyi. They were square, with a round opening on top just large enough to fit a hand.
The gold-armored man said, "Inside these wooden boxes are fourteen bamboo slips, each inscribed with a name. Whomever is drawn will come up to fight."
"Wait. I need to check if you’ve cheated." Jia Hei stood up, picked up one of the wooden boxes, poured all the bamboo slips out, and examined each one.
"Is Brother Wolf’s name in there?" the White-Eyed Wolf asked anxiously.
Jia Hei shot it a cold glance and silently put the bamboo slips back into the box. Then, he went to King Pan and emptied the bamboo slips from that wooden box as well.
The two wooden boxes contained twenty-eight bamboo slips in total. Their thickness, length, and width were identical, and the names were printed on them. Without looking, it would be impossible to discern what was written on them by touch alone. Cheating was thus impossible.
Elder Lin returned to his seat and shook his head at Jiang Zhengyi.
The gold-armored man said, "Since there are no problems, let the drawing begin!"
"This King will shake it first, so no one can accuse me of cheating again." King Pan sneered at Elder Lin, held the wooden box, shook it vigorously, and added, "This King will not even use his hand to draw. That way, no one can accuse this King of cheating, can they!"
Jia Hei raised an eyebrow. This man, he’s truly petty-minded.
King Pan extended his index finger. A wisp of Battle Intent swept into the wooden box and flew out, carrying a bamboo slip. He caught the bamboo slip. Upon seeing the name on it, an inexplicable glint flashed in King Pan’s eyes, and he announced loudly, "Cheng Ming!"
Before his voice had even faded, the previously most arrogant youth in purple attire stepped forward, landing in the center of the high platform. A hint of regret surfaced on his face. He looked towards Qin Feiyang and the others, shook his head, and sighed, "I didn’t expect to be the first to appear. Truly unfortunate for all of you."
