318: Chapter 0318: Four Stone Kings   318: Chapter 0318: Four Stone Kings                                   It wasn’t until Hu Zhuoqing sought death that Wang Yuan finally stepped in to save him.


    “Master…


    Master?


    Why are you here?”


    With a p, Wang Yuan lifted his hand and smacked Hu Zhuoqing to the ground!


    Wang Yuan pointed at Hu Zhuoqing’s nose and cursed vehemently, “Trash!


    Those who seek death are all trash!


    I, Wang Yuan, do not have a worthless disciple like you!”


    “Master, I was wrong!


    I was wronged in my loss!” Hu Zhuoqing knelt and moved forward two steps, clinging fiercely to his master’s legs.


    Wang Yuan lifted his hand again, but this time he did not strike down.


    “Losing isn’t scary, but how you lose, that’s how you must win it back for me!”


    “Master, I don’t want to go back, they willugh me to death!


    Master, please, you must reim our honor!”


    “Ah, what a sin!


    Alright!


    Your master will go and meet thisd surnamed Qin!”


    Wang Yuan sighed deeply, and no one knew that although Hu Zhuoqing bore the surname Hu, he was actually Wang Yuan’s illegitimate son.


    Otherwise, Wang Yuan would not have indulged him so.


    “With Master taking action, thatd surnamed Qin will definitely die a miserable death!” Hu Zhuoqing eximed joyfully.


    …


    The stone gambling preliminarypetition proceeded as scheduled, and as Zhou Tianlei had said, the organizer designated five exhibition halls.


    Each contestant participating in the preliminaries had to select three stones from these five exhibition halls.


    Feng Guanghui, his face glowing with health, stood on the podium and announced in a deep voice, “Wee everyone to Feng’s Manor monthly raw stone trade fair!


    The exhibition halls selected for the stone gambling preliminaries are: Exhibition Hall 15, Exhibition Hall 24, Exhibition Hall 53, Exhibition Hall 63, and Exhibition Hall 86!


    Please get ready, thepetition is about to begin!”


    What pleased Qin Yu was that Exhibition Hall 53, diagonally opposite to Exhibition Hall 52, was on the list!


    What disappointed Qin Yu slightly was that Exhibition Hall 81, where another Stone Kingy, was not among these five exhibition halls.


    Even so, Qin Yu was confident of a sure win.


    Qu Qicong stood beside Qin Yu and took over the stone cart handed to him by the staff.


    Qu Qicong wasn’t too nervous, he believed in Qin Yu’s stone gambling skills.


    Seeing the contestants ready, Feng Guanghui dered loudly, “Dear friends, thepetition venue has been announced and everyone is prepared, I now dere the preliminaries officially begin!”


    At Feng Guanghui’smand, the contestants scattered, with Qin Yu striding quickly toward Exhibition Hall 53.


    Qu Qicong didn’t hesitate to follow Qin Yu’s pace.


    Qin Yu had already promised Qu Qicong that he would help him pass the preliminaries in first ce.


    Following Qin Yu weren’t just Qu Qicong, but also more than twenty other contestants.


    Over ten of them had witnessed Qin Yupletely overpowering Hu Zhuoqing and admired him greatly.


    The other ten-plus were regrs of the raw stone trade fair; they knew that in the span of six months, Exhibition Hall 53 had produced four Stone Kings.


    Perhaps, Exhibition Hall 53 still held some fine stones.


    Wang Lina was fired, and the former supervisor Liu Xiao was promoted to manager.


    Liu Xiao cherished this opportunity immensely, weing the contestants warmly and offering them her counsel.


    Several contestants, drawn by Liu Xiao’s charm, kept chatting with her, but Qin Yu didn’t engage with Liu Xiao at all and went straight for the Stone King he had already targeted.


    Qu Qicong hurriedly moved closer, and without any hesitation, Qin Yu grabbed the Stone King and casually tossed it into Qu Qicong’s stone cart.


    “Mr…


    Mr.


    Qin, aren’t you going to take a closer look?


    Are you sure this stone will produce jade?”
