In Battle Through the Heavens, lying down makes you stronger.

Chapter 23 Xiao Xun'er's Plea for Help

Xiao Ran watched the scene with a smile, though he had already noticed the strangeness of it all.

That is, when the silver ring is noticeably heavy, and there may be something underneath the puppet, an invisible magnetic field is formed after the ring is put on.

Once other loops are caught in the loop, the invisible magnetic field will repel them.

This is why the other party dared to use such a beautiful and expensive puppet as a prize.

Furthermore, you have to be able to get the item to work three times before you can take it away.

Even without using battle aura, it's impossible for a true master to be hit twice in a row.

However, on the third time, the silver ring in his hand would be repelled by an invisible magnetic field.

Most people wouldn't be able to tell, and very few people would spend that much money to acquire a magic puppet that can't be eaten.

A master would see through it, but would only smile knowingly, not bothering to expose it, and certainly not interfering with the other party's livelihood.

In this way, naturally no one could take the puppet away.

It's estimated that Wang Mazi made a lot of money through this method.

Xiao Xun'er ignored Wang Mazi, puffed up her cheeks in anger, and turned to look at Xiao Ran with a wronged expression.

"Brother Xiao Ran, please help this person with the ring toss game."

Xiao Ran nodded and looked at Wang Mazi, saying,

"Get up! Xun'er has already won two. If I win one more, can we take this puppet away?"

In fact, by this point, many of the onlookers had already noticed something strange about the silver ring and the doll.

Even Wang Mazi probably never expected that someone would be able to hit the target more than ten times in a row without using any fighting spirit.

But to my surprise, Xiao Ran still said something like that.

Wang Mazi gratefully kowtowed to Xiao Ran, then stood up and said,

"Of course, you can take it with you now!"

"I'll go get it for you right away!"

"The silver rings you purchased are from the same batch. As long as they are from this batch, anyone who accumulates a certain number of rings can take them away according to the rules."

In truth, Wang Mazi was extremely panicked, as he had never encountered such a situation before.

I encountered several people who got the answer right twice, but they couldn't get it right a third time and left cursing.

Unexpectedly, the eldest son of the Xiao family brought the young lady of the Xiao family today, and they caught the trap many times in no time.

Despite Xiao Ran's appearance while traveling with Miss Xun'er, most people would assume that a young master from a wealthy family wouldn't care about winning a few gold coins, and even if he failed, he wouldn't do anything irrational.

But that is, after all, the Xiao family, one of the three major families in Wutan City!

If I anger the other party by cheating, I might not even be able to leave this place alive, let alone continue to set up a stall in the market!

Looking at the trembling Wang Mazi, Xiao Ran smiled faintly.

He casually took a silver ring from Xiao Xun'er's hand, and without even looking at it, threw it away.

At the same time, an invisible spiritual force pressed the silver ring firmly onto the left ear of the Iron-Eating Beast Puppet.

It kept spinning around and around, but it wouldn't fall down.

"Go! Bring me that puppet!"

"Yes, Young Master Xiao Ran!"

Upon hearing Xiao Ran's voice, Wang Mazi immediately got up to get it.

He thought they were obviously going to let him go after taking the puppet, but when he saw the silver rings wrapped around the puppet's ears, spinning around without falling down, Wang Mazi was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped!

Seeing this, Xiao Xun'er grabbed Xiao Ran's hand and jumped up happily.

"Wow! Brother Xiao Ran is amazing! He got it on his first try!"

The onlookers also erupted in excitement.

"Young Master Xiao Ran is truly amazing; he caught it with just a casual toss."

"Yes! Even from a distance of ten meters or so, I couldn't see anything clearly! Young Master Xiao Ran is truly amazing!"

"As expected of Xiao Xia's genius, even without using battle qi, he's absolutely invincible!"

"That bastard Wang Mazi has swindled countless gold coins with this puppet. Now someone has finally come to take it away. Let's see how he can show off now."

"Haha, yeah, yeah."

"..."

Xiao Ran ignored the murmurs of the onlookers and smiled as he looked at Wang Mazi, whose mouth was still agape in astonishment, and asked,

"Excuse me, may I take that puppet with me now?"

Wang Mazi quickly came to his senses, swallowed hard, and nodded repeatedly as he looked at the silver ring that was still spinning.

Although my heart is filled with reluctance.

After all, this iron-eating monster puppet had earned him a lot of gold coins and could be considered his cash cow.

It's easy to imagine that without the allure of this incredibly beautiful Iron-Eating Monster puppet, his business would certainly not be able to produce another enormous puppet.

However, Xiao Ran was the young master of the Xiao family, and he had already offended him before.

No matter how good the puppet and the gold coins are, they are not as important as your life.

"Of course! Young Master Xiao Ran is truly amazing, he caught it on the first try."

"Everyone present is looking at Young Master Xiao Ran. Since you did not use your battle qi, you can certainly take this puppet away."

As he spoke, he quickly ran to the Iron Demon Beast puppet, picked it up with both hands, and respectfully presented it to Xiao Ran.

He forced a smile.

"Young Master Xiao Ran, from now on, this puppet belongs to you."

"Hehe, okay!" Xiao Ran took the puppet.

After scanning with his soul power and finding nothing unusual, he then cleaned it up with his battle aura.

Only then did he hand the Iron-Eating Beast Puppet to Xiao Xun'er, whose eyes had already lit up.

Xiao Xun'er looked at the puppet and cheered with joy.

Unable to contain himself, he kissed Xiao Ran on the cheek and took the puppet.

Xiao Ran was slightly taken aback; this was the first time he had ever been so intimate with Xiao Xun'er.

She unconsciously reached out and touched her slightly damp face.

Xiao Xun'er seemed to realize something, blushed, and quickly lowered her head.

Fortunately, the huge puppet blocked the view, and few people saw the little thing between the two.

Xiao Ran smiled with satisfaction, then picked up the silver-rimmed box from the ground and asked Wang Mazi,

"Can I take this job?"

"what?"

Wang Mazi's lips twitched violently. Xiao Ran had only shown a trick just now, and he had directly caught the most difficult puppet.

If it happened a few more times...

But he didn't dare to say anything that Xiao Ran couldn't get to the bottom of.

The surrounding crowd erupted in laughter.

"Hahaha, this Wang Mazi is such a swindler, even Young Master Xiao Ran can't stand it anymore."

"Let's see what he does now?"

"Exactly! Let's see if he dares to cheat kids out of their pocket money again."

Faced with the surging crowd and Xiao Ran's identity, Wang Mazi had no choice but to stand at attention, nod, and step aside to speak.

"Young Master Xiao Ran, please, please go ahead!"

Xiao Ran nodded, casually grabbed a stack of silver rings from the box, and tossed them aside without even looking at them.
