"What? You don't want me to bet?" Seeing that they didn't answer for a long time, Tom continued with a
smile.
A banker said with a dry smile, "Mr. Howard, we were just playing around. We didn't mean anything.
Don't take it to heart."
The other two bankers also said quickly, "Yes, yes, Mr. Howard, we were just playing for fun. Don't take
it seriously."
"Mr. Howard is such a magnanimous person. He wouldn't bother to argue with us. Let's leave so as not
to disturb Mr. Howard."
Then they were about to leave.
Tom stopped them and said, "Don't worry. I am not that petty. Tomorrow is the battle between me and
Peter. Either he dies or I die. So I'm not joking. I'm going to bet on me for two billion. Will you take it?"
"Well..." Hearing Tom's words, the three bankers were obviously stunned. They looked at Tom
suspiciously, not sure if he was angry or being serious. Two billion was not a small amount! NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
One of the bankers smiled dryly and said, "Mr. Howard, we are really joking. Don't take it to heart."
These three bankers were all bosses of different companies. Each of them was worth more than ten
billion and was a big shot outside, but they really didn't dare to be arrogant in front of Tom, because
Tom was much stronger than them. And they were still in the deep forests, so if Tom really became
angry and killed them, they would die unjustly and miserably.
The others were also embarrassed and quickly joined in to explain.
Tom shook his head and said, "Are you afraid?"
The three bankers looked at each other and exchanged glances. The last one asked tentatively, "Mr.
Howard, are you sure you want to bet two billion? If you lose, we won't refund you."
"Yes, Mr. Howard, we did open the market just now. But that was for fun. We didn't mean to go against
you."
Tom walked in and said with a smile, "It's just two billion. It's just a small amount for me. However,
according to your odds, once I win, you're going to pay me 14.6 billion. Are you sure you have so much
money?"
The three bankers all sneered. "Mr. Howard, don't worry. 14.6 billion is just a small sum for us. The
thing is, are you sure you want to bet? As far as I know, many people don't think you can defeat Peter
tomorrow."
The others looked at Tom with the same playful expression and did not believe that he had the ability to
defeat Peter.
Tom said, "You don't have to worry about that. According to what you said, if I really lose to Peter, I
can't spend any more money, so I might as well take a bet. Maybe it can stimulate me and bring out my
potential to survive in a desperate situation."
Hearing his words, many people in the room laughed and thought that Tom was talking nonsense.
One of the bankers said, "Mr. Howard, since you have such a good mood, it's not good for us to spoil it.
We took your bet of two billion dollars. However, we need you to transfer the money first."
The other two bankers muttered in a low voice, "That's right. If you were killed tomorrow, who would we
ask for this money?"
Tom laughed again. He was just bored and wanted to go out for a stroll. He didn't expect to get such a
good opportunity to earn 14.6 billion for nothing.
"Sure, give me an account number. I'll transfer it right away." Tom said with a smile, looking especially
approachable.
When everyone saw that he seemed to be serious, they were very happy, especially envious of the
three bankers. They could earn two billion for nothing. On average, everyone could get almost seven
hundred million.
Tom was quick. He immediately transferred two billion on his phone to the account the bankers gave
him. The three bankers were surprised to hear the notice of the phone. They did not expect Tom to
really transfer the money now!
When they came to their senses, they were especially excited. They had earned two billion for nothing.
Even if other people bet on Peter, they could earn over a billion. This felt good. They were hilarious.
Peter would lose?
They never thought that this would happen, because it was impossible.
Tom looked at the happy smiles on the corners of their mouths and sneered in his heart. After
tomorrow, they would definitely cry!
"Mr. Howard, this is our contract. Once you lose to Peter tomorrow, this money will belong to us. If you
defeat Peter, we will immediately compensate you 14.6 billion. Sign here."
Tom waved his hand and said, "There's no need for a contract. It's meaningless. Once I win tomorrow,
I'm sure you won't dare not give me this 14.6 billion, right?"
The three bankers laughed. "Haha, of course. Mr. Howard, you are so generous. We really don't have
to sign the contract."
Tom smiled meaningfully and left the cabin.
After he left, the three bankers jumped up in excitement, thinking they made a fortune.
Someone reminded them that if Tom won, they would lose a lot.
These words were disdained by the three of them. Even if the sun rose from the west, Tom would not
win.
After leaving the cabin, Tom continued to walk outside for a while, then began to go back to his room to
rest.
He felt very happy now. He just came out for a walk, but he earned 14.6 billion. He was not worried that
the three bankers weren't going to give him that money at all. As long as he killed Peter, his reputation
would rise greatly. The three people didn't have the guts to keep that money.
How dare any ordinary person offends a transcendent master of the Innate Realm?
The richer the person was, the more afraid he was of death.
So Tom was not worried at all.
It was still early, so Tom did not fall asleep immediately. Instead, he began to meditate to refresh
himself.
After he reached the Innate Realm, his strength was improving every day.
In the past, when he was at Extrinsic Peak, he still needed to punch and exercise to cultivate. But now,
he didn't need to practice. He just needed to meditate, control his brain, and secrete various hormones
to achieve the effect of cultivation.
This was also why the Innate Realm was also known as the Transcendent Realm. As long as Tom did
not die, he would continue to progress endlessly.
After meditating for an hour, Tom had practiced more than a hundred battles with Peter in his mind.
Now his brain, which was equivalent to artificial intelligence, worked very fast, and his IQ, EQ, and sixth
sense would be greatly improved.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and heard a footstep coming from the corridor towards his room.
Soon, the person arrived at the door of his room and stopped.
