The forum's real-name system made it easy for Xiao Lin to see the name of this stranger: An Fumin.
Seeing that the other party was online, Xiao Lin directly clicked on the communication request, and a fat man popped out of the virtual screen, his face was full of courteous smiles, and his tone was rough but polite: "May I ask if you are Mr.
Xiao Lin Xiao?"
” "Yes, may I ask you?"
"When we first met, my name was An Fumin, the owner of the Century Casino in Dawning City."
Song Junlang had mentioned to him that the Century Casino was the largest casino in the jurisdiction of the Shuguang Colony, and it was also the location of this bet, he nodded and did not speak, waiting for the other party's follow-up.
An Fumin seemed to have just come back from the trip, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "You once placed a bet in our casino a few days ago, and I have already got the exact answer from my friends in the student union just now, it seems that the final winner also belongs to you, right?"
” Xiao Lin was noncommittal, but it seemed that the other party was not specially here to send the money, so he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "What?"
Do you want to pay for it?
” "No, no, no," the fat man hurriedly waved his hand, and his smile made his chubby face squeeze together: "Century Casino is a century-old store, and it has always paid attention to reputation, although we have lost a little this time, but this is just a small amount of money, it should be yours, and we will send a lot of money to you." ” "So you're coming to me this time?"
"Hehe, let me briefly introduce it first, the scale of our Century Casino is quite large, even if there are branches in other colleges, such as freshmen who enter the black iron level first are just a small fight, and the profits from winning and losing are very limited, but soon the main event will be ushered in the Academy Competition.
I wonder if you would like to continue working with us?
” Xiao Lin was confused, he seemed to have heard Song Junlang mention it once, but he didn't know what it was.
An Fumin saw his embarrassment and immediately enthusiastically introduced him.
The so-called House Championship.
It is a competition jointly organized by all colonial academies, and since the colonization of the Norma world by the earthlings began, many countries have formed their own academies.
Join the colony army.
In a big way, all colonial colleges are grasshoppers standing on a rope. has common interests, but in fact, with the expansion of the colony, the intertwined interests are destined to unite and have disputes, of course, they will never develop to the point of war, this bottom line is understood by everyone, so the comprehensive combat effectiveness of the academy almost determines the discourse and status of the academy.
It was in this context that the House Championship was born, and it was originally a random selection of candidates for each house to compete.
But later, as everyone's strength increased, especially considering the embarrassment of epic or even legendary people's shots, it was later changed to a competition by the graduates of that year, and in the past ten years, at the suggestion of the American Adjudicator College and the British Royal Academy, a freshman competition was added.
Graduates represent the new generation and future potential of the college, while graduates represent the current strength of the college.
The House Championship is held in the middle of each year, which coincides with the graduation of senior students and the enrollment of new students for almost one year.
All kinds of basic skills should be learned, and this year's competition will be held in about half a year.
However, the quota for the tournament will definitely be selected from the elite freshmen and seniors.
Therefore, students usually decide the number of places to participate in the competition in advance, so that participants have more time to prepare.
Song Junlang said that in addition to ordinary gambling, many things will be opened in the casinos of New World, including the victory or defeat of various wars, and this kind of academy-level competition will naturally be among them.
After listening to An Fumin's introduction, Xiao Lin was a little playful: "I'm not sure at all whether I will be elected as the representative of the freshmen." ” An Fumin laughed again: "You're kidding, with the results of this black iron certificate, not to mention the first in history."
At least Shuguang Academy doesn't want anyone to surpass it in the past few years, just with this result.
If the student council doesn't put you on the shortlist, then I think the president will basically do it.
The headmaster, his old man, hated dereliction of duty the most. ” In fact, Xiao Lin's meaning was not too clear, and he was not sure whether the principal would ban him from participating in the competition for the sake of secrecy, after all, he was almost detained in New Washington.
Of course, the reason for this must not be clearly stated, Xiao Lin asked again: "Even if I participate, hehe, do you want me to play fake matches to control the game?"
” An Fumin's smile narrowed slightly, and he said: "How can it be, after all, I am also a person from Dawning Academy, this consciousness is still there, you are a freshman, so you may not know, the Academy Competition, our Dawning Academy has not entered the top four for a full decade."
Since the fall of the genius Song Junlang ten years ago, the strength of our students has lagged too far behind. ” Dawning Academy is the earliest academy to colonize, and its heritage and strength have always been among the best in history, but since the war with the beasts, it has been gradually surpassed by the Adjudicator Academy, especially in recent years, the mediocrity of the quality of new students, especially the lack of talented students, has caused Dawning Academy to fall into a rather embarrassing situation.
Xiao Lin sighed secretly when he heard this, but An Fumin soon showed a sly expression and chuckled: "Because of the poor record of Shuguang Academy in recent years, the odds are constantly increasing every time I compete in the championship, and this year I plan to build momentum a little in advance to increase the odds by more points......
Xiao Lin understood his intentions, he was really still a profiteer, this guy obviously wanted to hype up and make everyone continue to look down on Shuguang Academy and raise the odds, and if Shuguang Academy was upset at that time, then An Fumin, as a banker, would make a lot of money.
"Is there anything I need to do?
Even if I do join the national team, there is no guarantee of victory.
"It's not that this is modest, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be any awesome talented students in other academies, Xiao Lin really doesn't have much confidence.
"Hehe, don't underestimate me, I will help Shuguang Academy as much as possible when the time comes, although I won't get the first place, but at least I have to regain the top four places, as for the specific measures, I can't disclose it for the time being, I came here today mainly to get to know you, and by the way, exchange your intentions."
Xiao Lin thought about it, there is no harm in this kind of thing, but he will not easily promise it, so he said perfunctorily: "Let me think about it more, anyway, you also said that it will be the championship in half a year."
