As soon as the words left his mouth, Chen Yaoyang's hands shot out like lightning!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Chen Yaoyang had already locked onto the cards he wanted to grab, and in less than two seconds, he had snatched 5 cards from the deck of 35.

At the same time, Luo Chao also casually grabbed 5 cards.

Both players revealed their cards.

Chen Yaoyang's five cards were... the 10 of Spades, Jack of Spades, Queen of Spades, King of Spades, Ace of Spades!

It was astonishingly the biggest spade flush in poker!

Meanwhile, Luo Chao's five cards were... a pair of 5s and three 3s.

The winner was crystal clear!

A pair of 5s plus three 3s could never beat the spade flush!

"Hahaha! Wahahaha!" Chen Yaoyang burst into laughter, "Trash! You think you can compete with me in gambling? You're just a waste!"

The mercenaries supporting Chen Yaoyang laughed uproariously, as if mocking Luo Chao's incompetence!

"The first round... Chen Yaoyang wins!" Majeson declared weakly, a look of disappointment flashing across his face.

Beside him, Zhou Delong and Miao Shiyun both looked ashen.

Especially Zhou Delong, who had stood up from his chair to get a closer look at the match, now found himself back in his seat with a woozy head.

"A rough start! Losing the first round, can Luo Chao be relied upon?" Zhou Delong held his forehead, a hint of doubt about Luo Chao's ability rising in his mind.

However, Luo Chao remained unfazed, showing a carefree attitude in the face of the crowd's varied expressions of either smugness or disappointment.

"Let's proceed with the second round, for which the winner of the first round, Chen Yaoyang, will announce the challenge," Majeson said weakly.

Chen Yaoyang smirked, "For the second round, we'll compete in Baccarat!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

As soon as he spoke, Chen Yaoyang's hands had already darted out!

Luo Chao, on the other hand, casually picked two cards.

In front of them, they each placed two cards.

Cards revealed face up.

Chen Yaoyang's two cards were an Ace and an 8, making a perfect 9 in Baccarat!

Luo Chao's two cards were a Queen and a King. According to Baccarat rules, 9, 10, J, Q, K all count as 0 points, so Luo Chao's score for this round was... the smallest, 0 points.

"Hahaha, are you an idiot? If you don't know how to play Baccarat, just say so! You managed to pick a zero, how stupid!" Chen Yaoyang laughed at Luo Chao's "0," unable to contain his ridicule.

"Zhou Delong, is this the son-in-law you're so impressed with? He's got a screw loose, and you're still impressed with him? You must be blind!" Chen Yaoyang taunted Zhou Delong.

"Sigh!" Zhou Delong was at a loss for words.

Miao Shiyun suddenly stepped forward, wrapping her arms around Luo Chao's arm and deliberately resting her head on his shoulder, "Hmph! It's better if he can't gamble. I like him just the way he is. What's it to you? You're just a pathetic gambler. Even if you're amazing at gambling, you're still just a skilled gambler gone bad!"

"You-you-you... hmph! Watch how I destroy your dim-witted fiancé today!" Chen Yaoyang fumed with anger.

Luo Chao lightly tapped Miao Shiyun on the head, "Who are you calling dim-witted? The tiger doesn't roar, so you think I'm a sick cat?"

Unexpectedly, Miao Shiyun pinched Luo Chao, unwilling to be outdone, "Show me what you've got; you've already lost two rounds, buddy!"

Luo Chao smiled slightly, "Don't worry, the real show is just starting."

Majeson glanced at Luo Chao's mysteriously confident face and shook his head in resignation, "The second round, Chen Yaoyang wins. Proceeding to the third round, where the second round's winner, Chen Yaoyang, will announce the challenge... Let me emphasize again, our match is a best of five series!"

When Majeson said "best of five," he deliberately stressed the words and cast a meaningful glance at Luo Chao, the reminder in his tone obvious.

However, Luo Chao seemed not to hear it, remaining relaxed, while Chen Yaoyang clearly heard it, only offering a cold sneer.

Chen Yaoyang sneered, "Third round, each of us draws two pairs of cards. The bigger value... wins!"

Saying this, Chen Yaoyang's hands shot out like lightning again, quickly grabbing the cards he wanted.

This time, Luo Chao finally got serious, his speed also incredibly fast, instantly astonishing Majeson with Luo Chao's hand speed, surely over 100 points!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Grabbing a pair of Aces and a pair of Kings before Chen Yaoyang.

In front of them, each laid out 4 cards, two pairs.

Luo Chao's were a pair of Aces and a pair of Kings.

Chen Yaoyang's were a pair of Jacks and a pair of Queens.

"Hmm?" Majeson hesitated, then announced with excitement, "Third round, Luo Chao wins, the score is 1 to 2!"

"Well done, young Luo Chao!" Zhou Delong's eyes reignited with hope upon hearing Luo Chao's victory!

"Luo Chao, I knew you could do it!" Miao Shiyun's eyes glimmered with delight as she happily patted Luo Chao.

The mercenaries, on the other hand, were somewhat startled by Chen Yaoyang, knowing full well his gambling prowess.

In normal games against them, he always trounced them thoroughly!

Majeson goes without saying; he was at least among the world's top 100 gambling experts, so beating Chen Yaoyang was normal.

But this Luo Chao... they hadn't even heard of him, and he lost the first two rounds so terribly!

Chen Yaoyang was also in a daze, "How can this be! How did this waste's hand speed suddenly become so fast! He even snatched away the pair of cards I wanted!"

"No, he must be just fast, coupled with remembering the position of those two cards just now! He can't possibly remember the position of all the cards, a fluke, it must be a fluke! I'll surely win the next round!" Though baffled, Chen Yaoyang quickly convinced himself.

The match moved to the fourth round, with Luo Chao setting the challenge, Luo Chao calmly stated, "Fourth round, each draw 3 cards, compete in Blackjack!"

With that, both pairs of hands shot out again!

This time, Luo Chao's hand speed still surged past 100, quickly drawing 3 cards. Chen Yaoyang also drew 3 cards rapidly, but his speed was noticeably a bit slower than Luo Chao's.

The two laid out their cards.

Chen Yaoyang's hand consisted of a 5, a 6, and a 9, totaling 20 points.

Luo Chao's hand consisted of a 5, a 6, and a 10, making a perfect 21 points!

"Fourth round, Luo Chao wins again, it's a tie at 2 to 2! The last round will decide the winner!" Majeson grew more excited; he truly hadn't expected the previously two-round-losing Luo Chao to suddenly pull back two rounds, eventually battling Chen Yaoyang to the final round!

Now, everyone's heart in the room was hanging by a thread!

The fifth round, the final round!

This round was more important than any previous round!

To the victor goes the spoils, one round to determine the winner! Decide the outcome!
