High-level martial arts: I can choose Hextech equips.

The game rules do not restrict gamblers from using the option of "open cards".

However, this is not Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game). Even if you reveal your cards, you can't double your winnings. Instead, it will expose your hand completely.

Of course, Lin Shuxuan always went all in every round of betting. As long as Tang Hao called, there was no room for maneuver left for either of them. They could only wait for the cards to be dealt and then compare their hands.

At the large, solid wood card table, Lin Shuxuan observed Tang Hao's cards under the dim light.

Numbers 8, 9, 10, J, and Q are all black plum blossoms.

Flush.

No wonder Tang Hao was confident enough to go all in; a straight flush is the highest possible hand, with an extremely low probability of appearing, yet Tang Hao had already assembled it.

Goodbye, Lin Shuxuan. I hope you enjoyed the past hour and a half of acting.

Tang Hao smiled with utter ease and contentment.

A straight flush is the highest-ranking hand. If you get it, you not only have to try to appear weak, but you also have to put on an act to entice others to continue betting.

A gambler like Lin Shuxuan, who would risk everything, is truly one in a million.

Unfortunately, after winning this round of chips, Lin Shuxuan was completely bankrupt, and he would never again have such an easy way to earn credits.

The spectators around the card table had various expressions.

Once Lin Shuxuan chose to place his blinds, his fate of losing all his chips was sealed.

Unexpectedly, Tang Hao was blessed by Lady Luck and managed to form a winning hand like a straight flush.

"What a waste of my reward..." Luo Jiuli sighed inwardly. She had thought Lin Shuxuan was calm and composed, but she hadn't expected him to be so muddle-headed at the gambling table.

He squandered all his accumulated credits without a second thought, as if he had gone mad.

The Federal Military Academy painstakingly built this internal economic system and also put a lot of effort into maintaining it.

Lin Shuxuan will most likely lose cleanly, which means he won't even be able to qualify for the weekly competitions.

After all, the intensity of competition is gradually increasing, and there are equipment requirements to participate in.

If you want to gain extra credit points in a short period of time, the only options besides participating in competitions are to borrow money and apply for high-interest loans from school clubs.

Perhaps I can lend him this money... Luo Jiuli looked at Lin Shuxuan, who was still sitting with his legs crossed, and her anger flared up again.

The thought that her good intentions might become chips that the other person could easily lose at the gambling table made her feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

Only then did she notice that Lin Shuxuan had a wrist guard on his wrist, which eased her worries somewhat.

This piece of equipment is quite valuable, and it should be enough to get into the weekly competition, which puts her at ease. However, she also realizes that something is not quite right in her mind.

Why am I so concerned about him... Yes... His bankruptcy will affect the teaching rhythm of Battle.net, that's right... That's it... Luo Jiuli convinced herself, feeling her mind was completely at ease.

Lin Shuxuan rubbed the crystal fire wristband on his arm.

Damn it... I forgot to pawn it... Lin Shuxuan looked at the face-down cards. Although Tang Hao had already formed a winning hand, he still didn't feel like he was going to lose.

According to the rules of the game, the winning side's share is distributed based on the amount of chips they have bet.

At this moment, he has a total of 213 chips. Even if he wins, he can only take away 213 chips, leaving 24 chips for Tang Hao.

Besides, this wristband was a gift from Ye Lingyue, and it seems a bit excessive to just casually place it on the gambling table.

Thinking of this, Lin Shuxuan turned his gaze to Tang Hao, whose face was glowing.

The culprit who caused Ye Lingyue's hospitalization is now gloating over his efforts of the past month.

The game is still too soft; I really want to just take action... Lin Shuxuan's eyes burned with desire.

This gaze was misunderstood by Luo Jiuge, who was standing to the side.

"Lin Shuxuan, you still want to keep playing, don't you?"

Luo Jiuge tacitly agreed that Lin Shuxuan would lose all his chips.

"I can lend you money, interest-free."

"You know, the money you lose is just sitting on the table. You only really lose if you stop gambling."

He loved watching the drama unfold; Lin Shuxuan's talent was well-known, although his reluctance to accept Daoist practitioners seemed very strange.

There are even rumors that he underwent some kind of physical modification surgery, which caused him to die on the spot.

But with Major General Guan behind him, his talent is presumably guaranteed.

He wasn't worried about Lin Shuxuan defaulting on the debt; on the contrary, if Lin Shuxuan were to incur such a debt, he would be like a father to him.

Conquering the school beauty is a skill in itself.

"The cards haven't been revealed yet, I haven't lost."

Lin Shuxuan smiled and replied casually.

Everyone fell silent.

Just assume he's about to lose all his chips and is talking nonsense.

It should be noted that Tang Hao had already made a straight flush, which was the best possible hand.

Faced with everyone's questions, Lin Shuxuan smiled but did not explain, only urging Tang Qian to deal the cards.

One 3, one 5.

A very weak hand is meaningless in the game.

Now, it's time for Lin Shuxuan to reveal the two blind cards.

Although this is of no use.

"A straight flush isn't the highest-ranking hand," Lin Shuxuan said aloud, stroking his hand.

"indeed."

Tang Hao smiled and agreed.

"Royal Flush, but are you going to tell me that you happen to have a King and an Ace in your hand, and they're both in the club suit?"

He couldn't help but laugh as he said this.

"Stop dreaming, Lin Shuxuan. You haven't even looked at the cards."

Everyone nodded in agreement; Tang Hao's words made a lot of sense.

In theory, there is indeed a hand that is stronger than a straight flush.

However, a straight flush has a probability of only 1 in 70,000, while the highest probability, a royal flush, is only 1 in 700,000.

What is the probability that the two will appear in the same hand?

Hopefully this will happen? It's more likely we'll wake up to find all the alien beasts extinct.

Lin Shuxuan offered no explanation. All the public cards had been distributed, and now it was time to reveal the cards.

He gently flipped over a card in his hand.

K (Black Plum)

How is this possible?!

At the same time, this question flashed through everyone's minds.

This means that if Lin Shuxuan gets just one more Ace of Spades in his remaining hand, he can make a Royal Flush with a 1 in 700,000 probability!

Win all the chips on the table.

"You cheated?"

Luo Jiuli, with her twin ponytails, spoke in disbelief.

How dare you slander someone's innocence out of thin air... Lin Shuxuan was too lazy to explain, as everyone present was a martial arts expert.

It's one thing to use one's own abilities to figure out an opponent's thoughts like the Tang family did, but trying to manipulate the cards is undoubtedly asking for trouble.

Moreover, this is a game played by the Tang family; if anyone is cheating, it's them.

The name Tang Qian sounds like someone who's good at cheating... Lin Shuxuan thought to himself, ignoring the little devil's doubts.

Luo Jiuge was startled and sat up in her chair.

This is gambling: one thought can lead to heaven, another to hell.

In a single instant, a person's originally happy and fulfilling life can be destroyed; just as in a single instant, a person can go from being penniless to being incredibly wealthy.

He had to admit that Lin Shuxuan had almost completely won him over at the card table.

What kind of mindset and courage do you have to go all in with blinds, and even have the chance to play a royal flush when the opponent has a straight flush?

How is that possible?! He didn't even look at his cards!!

Luo Jiuge found herself developing an uncontrollable curiosity about Lin Shuxuan.

He was all too familiar with this feeling; whenever he wanted to win over a girl, he would try every means to leave a sense of mystery in her mind.

Damn it! Damn it! ...Luo Jiuge fiercely dissuaded himself; he absolutely could not have such dangerous thoughts!

Although watching the handsome younger generation of the Luo family slap themselves is a wonderful thing.

But everyone present was staring intently at the remaining card that Lin Shuxuan had not yet revealed.

If it really is the Ace of Spades, then Lin Shuxuan will not only form a Royal Flush, but also win almost all of Tang Hao's chips.

Even for the descendants of the nine clans, this is a large sum of money.

Through the operations of the behind-the-scenes organizations and through complex contract terms, they can multiply a legitimate amount of credit points fivefold and return it to their hands.

But this is on the premise that you have the principal.

If Lin Shuxuan wins this sum of money, Tang Hao, the third young master of the Tang family, will have a very difficult time in his military academy career.

"That's probably impossible. How could the last card be the Ace of Clubs?"

Tang Hao reassured himself with a trembling voice, while looking at Tang Qian, hoping that the other party could affirm him.

But Tang Qian didn't speak. His gaze shifted back and forth between Shang Shangyuandao and the remaining trump card.

I wonder what he's thinking.

Lin Shuxuan tapped his fingers lightly on the table. He didn't rush to reveal the last card, but instead fell into deep thought.

Is this fate...? For the first time, he felt a chill run down his spine at the overwhelming power of his vision of the future.

It's incredible that two Royal Flushes and two Straight Flushes can actually appear in the same hand.

And he will happen to be the winner.

For a fleeting moment, he almost wanted to fold and give up, to see if he could break free from the shackles of fate. He had a hunch that his future life might also be manipulated by this force.

Can folding rewrite the outcome of this future vision game?

Yes, 30,000 credits is a lot, but compared to fighting against fate, it's nothing.

At this moment, he is the beneficiary of fate, and the initiative is entirely in his hands.

He can easily overcome the fate of his future vision planning simply by folding.

The thought grew uncontrollably, and Lin Shuxuan prepared to do it, but then Shang Yuandao's face suddenly flashed before his eyes.

He was the only variable in this game.

If it weren't for him, would it have been Shang Yuandao who caused Tang Hao to lose everything?

With that thought in mind, Lin Shuxuan abandoned the dangerous idea in his mind.

Even if he chooses to fold, Shang Yuandao will continue the game, and the scenario revealed in the future vision may still happen.

He will only lose those 30,000 credits for nothing.

Revealing a corner of the last blind card.

Tang Hao's eyes were bloodshot, and his fingers were deeply embedded in the card table.

It can't be a plum blossom, please, please don't be a plum blossom...

He was almost out of control, not even noticing Tang Qian's disdainful gaze.

Black plum blossoms.

Everyone held their breath.

Tang Hao's face turned deathly pale, and the wound in his heart was throbbing with pain.

He also needs a large sum of money for medical expenses, and he is currently short of money.

In order to win enough resources in this gamble, he exchanged all his medical expenses for chips!

It must not be A, absolutely not A!

Tang Hao thought of all the good deeds he had done in his life and prayed for the forgiveness and mercy of a certain god.

But for some reason, the image in his memory is always stuck on the frame where he stabbed Ye Lingyue.

A (Plum Blossom)

Lin Shuxuan flipped his hand over and took the three community cards on the field.

They lined up in a row in front of them.

Royal flush!

The air grew heavy at that moment; the scene was so bizarre that no one believed it for a time.

The fine, flickering lightning did not come from Tang Hao, but from Tang Qian.

He slowly rose to his feet, his upper body bare, with three jet-black hearts located on his left chest, right chest, and abdomen.

It was throbbing violently at that moment, bringing with it a large expanse of black blood vessels.

Several pupils converged in his eyes, staring intently at Shang Yuandao, his voice hoarse and piercing as he spoke a threat:

"Shang Yuandao, are you helping him?"

From the moment Lin Shuxuan went all in, the game completely went off track.

Despite it being a strategy that was bound to lose, they were able to produce an even bigger royal flush while Tang Hao was playing a straight flush.

This is too bizarre, too coincidental.

Coincidentally, there was a descendant of the Daoist sect who was very good at manipulating coincidences present at the scene.

Shang Yuandao looked somewhat helpless, put his four fingers together as a palm, and raised it above his head.

"I, Shang Yuandao, swear in the name of my ancestors that I did not help Lin Shuxuan in any way during this game of cards."

There seemed to be a whispering sound of wind all around, which then vanished without a trace.

But Tang Qian's imposing manner did not diminish in the slightest; he turned to face Lin Shuxuan.

"So, how did you cheat?"

"Crazy..." Lin Shuxuan cursed inwardly. He knew there would be a boss battle at the end. After all, this was a vision from the future, and no matter how he explained, the other party would definitely want to fight him.

However, there's no harm in trash-talking the opponent before the fight starts.

"I will post on the campus forum that the Tang family lost the bet and has decided to use their power to intimidate others."

"Let the Tang family's infamy spread to the homepages of all military academy students along with the news of this card game."

Lin Shuxuan was not exaggerating; this card game was clearly highly artistic.

After more than ten rounds of blind all-in, my opponent got a straight flush, but then he got a royal straight flush to crush me!

It is destined to be widely circulated.

If the Tang family bears some kind of bad reputation in this, the damage to the family's reputation would be difficult to estimate.

Tang Qian immediately changed his demeanor, suppressing all his imposing aura, and said under Tang Hao's almost pleading gaze:

"Tang Hao, quickly hand over the chips to Lin Shuxuan. Our Tang family has always been one to honor our bets!"

Lin Shuxuan sneered, collected the chips in exchange for credits, and waited for Tang Hao to continue.

Sure enough, he merely rolled his eyes—enough to trigger trypophobia—before continuing:

"However, besides the card game, there is another activity at tonight's dinner. I wonder if Lin would be interested in participating?"

"Not interested."

Lin Shuxuan got up and walked towards the gate, only to find that the gate was getting further and further away from him.

Is this Tang Qian's illusion?

He is many times more skillful than Tang Hao!

"That's not up to you!"

A violent aura once again filled the entire room.
