Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

[Su Chang: How can he not look familiar? We just experienced it firsthand. Insane verbal provocation, constantly testing the limits of what's acceptable, and he enraged the other side with just a few words. Is this all he knows how to do?]

Scott: What's wrong? The tricks may be old, but you're bound to resist. My mansion, my luxury cars, my wealth and status—all were won through ruthless scheming and meticulous control! If only I hadn't run into that gray-haired guy last time…

[Fireworks: Absolutely right! This provocation of the Cloud Cavalry wasn't enough for him; he bypassed the middlemen and went straight for Little Gray Hair and the train crew!]

[Sambo: Tsk tsk tsk, most people would avoid the Trail Blazers after that lesson, but he's different. He's even prepared to get back up from where he fell! What makes a true warrior? A true warrior is someone who dares to face the bleakness of life!]

[Star: Ah~~ Please spare me. Playing with dogs is tiring, okay? I can even guess what Scott is going to say next.]

Following the usual pattern, after successfully provoking their anger, he would "kindly" give them a chance to slap him in the face.

……

"Maybe your words are tougher than swords before the fight starts, but once you experience the power of the mechs, you'll be eager to hand over your money to the company." Scott accepted March 7's challenge without hesitation, and even at this point, he didn't forget to use a provocation tactic to prevent his opponent from running away and losing the easy victory and the opportunity for revenge!

His next move was to take advantage of the situation and eagerly guide things into his comfort zone.

Xing glanced at him, and just as he opened his mouth, she hurriedly said, "Same as always, we're going to make a bet."

"Don't rush me!" Scott gritted his teeth. "How could I possibly forget about a bet?"

Damn it! This person has no manners at all. Not only did they steal my lines, but they also stole the lines from so many other people! There were still so many lines left to say. Doesn't they know they're going to suffocate people like this?

He cleared his throat and said in a nonchalant manner, "I heard that Miss March 7th hasn't formally become an apprentice yet, so I won't bully her. Go back and learn swordsmanship from your master, learn as much as you like. In fifteen days, I will personally visit and invite Miss March 7th to spar with our company's mechs."

March 7th's expression froze: "Only fifteen days?"

He made it sound so easy, as if he were incredibly generous, but she was just a beginner who hadn't even learned how to hold a sword. Let alone fifteen days, even a month wouldn't be considered a comfortable amount of time.

But the deed was already done, and with so many onlookers watching, how could she possibly break her promise, especially since she had personally invited him out and then had to swallow it back?

March 7th forcefully stood with her hands on her hips and chest out, but her eyes were extremely clear: "Okay...okay!"

Scott was incredibly pleased.

That's right! We've only just reached the betting stage. Does that gray-haired guy even understand language rhythm?

"If you lose, you'll not only have to bark like a dog in public, but you'll also have to shout—"

He yelled at the top of his lungs, "The Immortal Boat Sword Technique? Even a dog wouldn't learn that!!!"

"Just stand at the entrance of Jinren Lane and tell it to everyone who passes by."

"Oh, right, don't bother with finding an apprentice, just become my apprentice! I'll teach you how to pilot a mecha!"

[Star: He still can't forget Golden Man Alley, even though he's in Star Chariot Sea right now.]

[Fireworks: I feel sorry for you~~ It would be hard for anyone to let go of that, right?]

[Yanqing: You rude wretch...]

[Yun Li: No, you just said one thing? Are you even a seven-foot...five-foot man anymore? You surnamed Si, tell me where you live if you dare!]

[Scott: You still want my real self offline? Ha! No way!]

[Gold Sand: Hmm? Who sent me a private message? Ms. Kagami-ryu? Asking for my address...]

[Fu Xuan: General, Jing Liu, the special envoy in charge of the Dragon Master's treason case, just now ordered a spaceship ticket to Pierpoint.]

Good grief... I've stepped on the cat's tail.

Jing Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Master, when it comes to being ruthless and taciturn, I'm afraid few can compare to you."

[Jing Yuan: Ahem, what special envoy? Has the special envoy been to Luofu? I've been busy with official business lately, working day and night, and haven't heard anything about it.]

Scott: Huh? What are you doing? Just letting that crazy woman run wild? Have you no manners?! Don't let her come any closer!

[Star: Hmm, I suddenly feel like I'm being incredibly kind, like a saint.]

[Fireworks: Hehe, the soft fear the hard, the hard fear the stubborn, and the stubborn fear the reckless.]

March 7th took a deep breath: "What if I win?"

Scott paused for a moment. He hadn't really thought about that.

"Should I turn around and become your disciple?"

March 7th's face immediately fell, her eyes filled with deep contempt: "I don't want you, I despise you."

Scott pondered for a moment. Well, you can't catch a tiger without risking your life... cough cough, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

"...Okay, I'll imitate a dog...a pig's noise in public. And I'll say it loudly..."

He high-pitched, shrill voice: "【Company mechs, only idiots want them!】And then print that phrase on every single mech on the transport ship, how about that?"

Xing, arms crossed, muttered to herself, seemingly criticizing someone: "Is changing a dog into a pig considered a new plot point?"

March 7th said sternly, "It's not enough for you to just squeal like a pig! You also have to apologize to the landlady of the Nightless Marquis, and you also have to apologize for the Immortal Boat Sword Technique!"

Scott readily agreed, then waved his hand impatiently: "That's no problem, but! The condition is that you can actually win with that little piece of metal."

Having said that, he didn't give the other side a chance to back down, and shouted loudly in all directions, "Everyone heard that! We'll see each other in fifteen days! Hahahaha, let's go!"

With laughter like the clatter of bells, the group of company members slowly departed.

[Fireworks: Tsk tsk, I think Scott is quite the warrior. He always leads from the front, getting himself involved! But then again, if you don't participate personally, even if you win, wouldn't the thrill be greatly diminished? Honestly, with that kind of drive, he really has the potential to be a comedian!]

[Gold Sand: Hmph, to be fair, he did create a good opportunity. If I were there, I probably wouldn't have let this bet slip by either. Of course, I wouldn't have used such unscrupulous methods, and I wouldn't have included those strange bionic performance techniques in the bet.]

[March 7th: Huh? A hot spot? I only see a freakish reaction.]

[Gold Sand: Haha, indeed, he added too many random things, and at first glance, he really does look like a mad dog with a vengeance. But objectively speaking, he has created a huge gimmick...]
