Upon hearing the dealer’s question, Loren was the first to move.

He pushed forward his remaining 6,000 chips and signaled to the dealer that he wanted another card.

Seeing Loren’s move, the expressions on the faces of the three gambling experts turned even uglier.

However, when the dealer looked towards them, all three gambling experts chose to silently follow the bet.

With grim expressions, each pushed forward 6,000 chips, also signaling they wanted another card.

After the raises were complete.

The dealer began dealing the additional cards one by one.

Another Ace card, worth 1 point, appeared before Loren!

His two face-up cards already totaled 11 points.

When the crowd saw the Ace dealt to Loren, another gasp of surprise rippled from the sidelines.

Immediately after, the attention of the onlookers shifted to the three gambling experts.

Everyone wanted to see what cards they got.

One man, his face serious, once again gently stroked the ring on the little finger of his left hand.

Then, his card was dealt—it was an Ace.

It was 1 point!

A flash of astonishment crossed his face, and he quickly looked up at Loren.

The card dealt to him should have been a 2! Had he made a mistake?!?

Loren, facing this, continued to smile calmly without any change in expression.

The next man’s card was also dealt;
his current action was to silently press his palms together.

Again, it was an Ace, 1 point!

He too turned his head to look at Loren, his face showing some gravity.

As for the last man, when the dealer dealt the card, he seemed to do nothing, merely crossing his arms calmly.

His card, similarly, did not change at all.

Still an Ace, 1 point!

Seeing this, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he silently shook his head.

The dealer asked the three of them again if they wished to raise and take another card.

All three shook their heads and refused.

There was no need for further probing.

One person’s mistake might be a coincidence, but all three making a mistake meant the opponent’s gambling skills surpassed their own.

“Please reveal your cards!!” The dealer’s voice was noticeably excited.

He felt he was witnessing the rise of a legend, witnessing the birth of the “Gambling King of the Jadeite Star Domain.”

The four players’ hole cards were flipped over one by one.

Loren’s hole card was a face card, representing 10 points.

His three cards were: one 10-point card, one Ace, and one face card.

A perfectly standard 21 points.

The hole cards of the three gambling experts were also revealed—all were 9-point cards.

All three had the same hand: one face card, one Ace, plus one 9-point card.

The hands of these three gambling experts were all 20 points!

Seeing this.

Loren smiled and collected the 28,000 points worth of chips from the table, then gestured to the dealer with eager anticipation, signaling he could continue dealing.

Now that he had probed their limits, he was prepared to win Spirit Stones all night long.

What Loren didn’t expect was that after exchanging a glance, the three gambling experts all stood up and used gestures to refuse the dealer’s dealing action.

“No need to deal, we admit defeat,” one of them said directly to the dealer.

After saying this and casting one last look at Loren, he shook his head and prepared to leave.

The other two gambling experts did the same;
after looking at Loren, they also prepared to depart.

The smile vanished from Loren’s face.

You’re planning to surrender after I’ve only won twenty-one thousand Spirit Stones??

At that moment.

Viscount Theodore, who had been watching from the side, suddenly stood up and reached out to stop the three gambling experts.

“Gentlemen, are you really going to surrender after losing just one hand?” Viscount Theodore’s tone was off, carrying a hint of chill.

After Viscount Theodore finished speaking, Baron Cass also stood up.

“Giving up already? Why don’t you gentlemen try a few more rounds? Leaving now might lead to… unfortunate occurrences…”

Baron Cass’s tone was a blatant, naked threat.

Viscount Stephen also stood up, threatening the three gambling experts:

“Why don’t you three continue? Dawn is still far off. Being in such a hurry to leave makes me quite suspicious that you’re colluding with the opponent…”

Upon hearing the words of the three nobles, the three gambling experts exchanged a very knowing glance.

All three scoffed in unison—idiots.

One of them stepped forward and explained to Viscount Theodore:

“Let me be blunt. At the gambling table, facing that master is no different from handing over Spirit Stones. We admit defeat because we don’t want to waste any more of your three gentlemen’s chips.”

“That’s all I have to say. Farewell!”

After speaking, he pushed aside the bodyguards blocking his path and, along with the other two experts, walked towards the casino exit.

“Kill them,” Baron Cass said coldly.

Viscount Stephen and Viscount Theodore also silently waved their hands, signaling their bodyguards to kill them.

The bodyguards surrounding the gambling table, upon receiving the order, immediately swarmed towards the departing three gambling experts.

The fight began right under Loren’s peculiar gaze.

These nobles are truly both arrogant and direct… Loren commented in his heart.

The bodyguards brought by the three major families were all Superhumans.

Even though this was inside the main hall of the Gambling City, upon receiving the order, they immediately attacked without any regard.

No attempt at concealment, and utterly fearless.

As if the Gambling City’s prohibition against using supernatural power was nothing but a scrap of paper to them.

The three gambling experts, however, seemed to have anticipated this.

All three turned simultaneously and, facing the swarming bodyguards, activated their Energy Shields, defending against the various attacks launched by the bodyguards.

At this moment, the security personnel of the Gambling City hall also timely appeared beside the various gambling tables within the hall.

However, unexpectedly.

After appearing, these casino security personnel did not intervene to stop the fight between the noble bodyguards and the gambling experts.

Instead, they began urgently evacuating the other gamblers from the casino.

They were quite practiced, as if they had rehearsed this countless times.

Soon, under the evacuation efforts of the numerous casino security personnel, the only people left in the hall were those at the gambling table where Loren sat.

And this gambling table had also become the only place of peace within the Gambling City hall at that moment.

Loren, Davis Feller, and the three nobles all sat by the gambling table, watching this battle unfold.

The three gambling experts were also Superhumans.

Judging by the Energy Shields they erupted with in an instant, their Tiers were not low.

Seeing the crowd in the casino being urgently evacuated, the three gambling experts exchanged a glance and ceased their purely defensive stance.

They successively began their counterattacks.

One gambling expert scattered countless playing cards into the air.

These playing cards, falling in a dense, sky-filling shower, began spinning rapidly during their descent.

The cards seemed to transform into sharp blades and, under the expert’s control, shot towards the surrounding bodyguards.

Another gambling expert clapped his hands together.

Immediately, all the gambling tables in the casino hall levitated into the air and began smashing towards the bodyguards encircling them.

The final gambling expert unhurriedly took off his jacket, revealing the sculpted muscles of his upper torso.

He opened his mouth in a grin, his gleaming white teeth shining brilliantly under the hall’s lights.

With a light tap of his foot, his figure vanished.

Several bodyguards who were in the midst of attacking instantly turned into clouds of blood mist, floating within the Gambling City hall.

The scent of blood permeated the main hall of the Labey Street Casino City.

Loren narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and couldn’t help but murmur:

“What a wonderful scent. How nostalgic.”

Davis Feller, who was sitting beside him watching the spectacle, silently moved his chair back a little upon hearing Loren’s muttering.

The Nature Sect members really are all lunatics! And it seems this one is a Radical…
