Among these six people, there are men and women, looking just like ordinary gamblers. Two of them have a flashy demeanor typical of the nouveau riche, almost as if they have "Fat Sheep" written on their foreheads.

However, when Qin Fang's Scouting Skill swept over them, the true identities of these six people were exposed…

"They really take me seriously, eh? Bringing six conmen at once to deal with me!"

Qin Fang's smile remained unchanged, but inside there was a hint of mockery. The person behind this really spared no expense!

These six people seemed flawless, yet who knew that these seemingly ordinary individuals were all conmen, and very skilled ones at that.

How did Qin Fang know these six conmen were highly skilled?

If out of these six people, three are considered Cheating Kings, then Qin Fang really has nothing more to say.

The remaining three conmen, including that extremely seductive mature woman, are all top-tier conmen with near Cheating King prowess...

"The person behind this is indeed extraordinary, to be able to mobilize so many conmen at once, even those with Cheating Skills at Quasi Grandmaster Level!"

The more Qin Fang understood the identity and ability of these six people, the more he couldn't help but be amazed by the opponent hiding in the shadows.

Among these six conmen, three are Cheating King experts. While this title is popularized by the community, Qin Fang found that the Cheating Skills of these three were Advanced, with one barely approaching Grandmaster Level...

"Sorry to keep you all waiting..."

Amazement was one thing, but Qin Fang wasn't intimidated by these six conmen. To be accurate, the opponent behind the scenes was indeed formidable but still underestimated Qin Fang's capabilities.

To disrupt things this time, Qin Fang had deliberately upgraded his Cheating Skills to Grandmaster Level before coming to the Light Club… This was solidly Grandmaster Level, not counting the added Skill Level from the Qianji Ring.

If the Qianji Ring was considered along with it, Qin Fang's Cheating Skills would be at Grandmaster Level… far surpassing the conmen before him.

Of course, there's no need to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut; even without using the Qianji Ring, Qin Fang's Master-Level Detective Skills combined with equally Grandmaster Level Cheating Skills—these twin swords merged are more than enough to easily defeat the six before him…

"Everyone is here, please take your seat..."

Once Qin Fang was in position, the seven of them sat down together, and the cold man who led Qin Fang there became the croupier for this round of gambling.

In this VIP room, apart from the observer Wu Jian, the other six gamblers and this croupier were all affiliated with the casino.

"Seven against one, interesting!"

This cold man, when Qin Fang saw him, he already noticed him; this individual had a pair of unique skillful hands and long fingers, suitable for handling small objects…

Of course, for someone training in martial arts, these hands are incredibly suitable for using Hidden Weapons, and this cold man happens to be a Hidden Weapons expert.

Hidden Weapons experts mostly rely on their hand skills, aside from using poison on Hidden Weapons as a minor method. To master Hidden Weapons and come serve as a mere croupier is far too easy for him…

"This round of gambling will be played as All-in, with a minimum stake of five million per person, a base wager of one hundred thousand per round, and no upper limit..."

The cold man, serving as the croupier, briefly introduced the rules of this round. As for the minimum stake, it can be ignored, as the second-floor VIP room's entry threshold is five million, naturally making it the minimum stake.

However, the base wager of one hundred thousand is rather brutal. While Qin Fang showed no reaction upon hearing this, Wu Jian was quite surprised as an observer.

With a base wager of a hundred thousand, losing millions would be effortless. Adding in bets, even tens of millions wouldn't be enough to cover losses.

At this moment, Wu Jian understood why Qin Fang asked him to exchange chips for cash; this kind of gambling is beyond his participation.

Still, Wu Jian wasn't worried for Qin Fang. Just recently, while accompanying Qin Fang for two rounds of dice games, his money ballooned from merely fifty thousand to twenty-seven million, proving Qin Fang's gambling skills are exceptional…

As for the gamblers before him, apart from one or two appearing slightly formidable, the rest seemed overly ordinary!

Poor Wu Jian fell into the trap of judging by appearance, lucky he stayed out of this round; otherwise, he'd certainly be the unlucky one…

"OK, let's begin!"

After the croupier introduced the gambling rules and key points, Qin Fang and others expressed no objections, and the gambling commenced.

All-in is a poker game more commonly played in Hong Kong and Taiwan; fewer people play it inland, but this does not deny that All-in is the most technically challenging for an individual's gambling skills.

Even in the Gambling King Tournament, the initial selection rounds usually start with some simple gambling games, such as slot machines, dice, mahjong, Pai Gow, etc...

But in the later stages of the Gambling King Tournament, it's basically the technically and tactically stronger poker games that dominate, like Blackjack, All-in, etc...

Especially All-in, which is almost a must in the final of the Gambling King Tournament, as it imposes very high demands on gambling experts! Whether it's the calculation ability or the psychological endurance of a gambling expert, it's a very high test...

The gambling round officially started, and the croupier took out a brand-new deck of cards, unsealed it, and shuffled the cards skillfully. Although it didn't have that dazzling feeling, any expert could tell at a glance whether it's good or not, at least a few people couldn't help but squint...

Everyone present was an expert, to be precise, all cheating experts. This croupier's shuffling motion seemed simple, but it showed incredibly solid basic skills.

Although he knew these seven people were together, Qin Fang didn't care. He just casually pulled out a cigar from his body, and Wu Jian, this boy, very obediently stepped forward to light it...

Qin Fang's leisurely appearance made a few people around him frown involuntarily, as if they thought Qin Fang was just a wealthy fool...

"I heard that getting caught cheating in a casino will get your hand chopped off, I wonder if it's true?"

However, even before the croupier finished shuffling the cards, Qin Fang was lazily smoking a cigar and muttered softly.

Bang~~

As if to add emphasis or to prove he wasn't joking, Qin Fang unexpectedly pulled out a cleaver from somewhere on his body and unceremoniously threw it on the gambling table.

In conjunction with Qin Fang's previous words, the meaning instantly became very clear, causing the faces of the people around to change slightly.

Especially the croupier, whose hands involuntarily paused while shuffling... Although he quickly resumed shuffling, this subtle action did not escape Qin Fang's eyes.

Precisely speaking, the reason he did this was entirely directed at the croupier, not targeting the other six cheating experts...

"Cheating before the game even starts, hmm..."

This croupier was a hidden weapon expert, his shuffling skill was also quite proficient, his speed incredibly fast, those little tricks he pulled might not even be noticed by the six cheating experts...

Of course, it's possible these six experts noticed, but since they are on the same team, they couldn't expose the croupier.

Qin Fang was not afraid of these six cheaters, but if this skilled croupier also helped the other side, it would be a bit troublesome for him.

Especially since this croupier was hiding cards while shuffling, clearly planning to scam Qin Fang... Qin Fang saw it clearly and certainly won't give him the chance.

Now that he has taken out the knife, and his intentions are clear, if this croupier still dares to do this, then Qin Fang would be justified to take action...

As for this croupier being somewhat of an expert, also a hidden weapon expert, but Qin Fang wasn't even afraid of the Tang Sect experts famous in the Martial World for hidden weapons and poison, would he fear such a second-rate hidden weapon expert?

It should be noted that this seemingly chilly man, although his skills are good, his true strength isn't even at the Grandmaster Level, just about Level 3 or 4, comparable to a rather formidable special forces soldier...

In Qin Fang's hands, let alone Level 3 or 4, even Level 5 and 6 Grandmasters wouldn't make much difference; if Qin Fang wanted to cut off one of his hands, it would be no trouble at all!

After Qin Fang said this, the croupier indeed behaved, those cards he hid somehow rejoined the deck during shuffling, afterward, he finished shuffling and put the cards into the dealer, not using any tricks again...

"Deal the cards!"

Once the cards were shuffled and cut, dealing naturally began, each person was dealt one face-up and one face-down card, and each threw ten thousand chips as the ante.

From the dealing position, Qin Fang's position wasn't too forward nor too backward, it was in the middle, with some advantages but also quite obvious disadvantages, essentially being surrounded.

However, Qin Fang didn't mind, very calmly took these two cards, looked at them, and then...

"Pass!"

Qin Fang didn't even bother to wait, directly chose to fold, then watched with interest as the other six performed.

These people wanted to fool Qin Fang, so they naturally had to act very convincingly, if Qin Fang just PASSed, and the others followed suit, even a fool could see the problem in this game...

To ensure the performance continued, these six people could only helplessly continue asking for cards and betting, glancing at each other...

Meanwhile, Qin Fang leisurely smoked his cigar, watching these six cheaters perform their awkward show, as if watching a monkey show! (To be continued.
