Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling

Yun Ran was just about to return to the rest area, waiting for the next round of competition.

As a result, everyone in the opposing waiting area stood up and bowed to Yun Ran: "Lady Yun, we all surrender."

Yun Ran: ...

Wait, she had just finished warming up, and now they're all surrendering?

However, the people opposite didn't wait for Yun Ran's reaction, they turned tail and ran away. It's not that they were cowardly, but rather the opponent was too fierce; they didn't want to be the hapless weeds pulled out by the roots.

Those who came to see Yun Ran get thrashed were also a bit embarrassed at this moment and had begun to pack up their things, ready to seize the moment and slip away.

Such scenes are rare to see in a hundred years.

Gu Yuan was leisurely resting his legs crossed, his body leaning against the back of the chair bonelessly, gazing askance at the person in charge not far away.

His tone was leisurely, tinged with a bit of arrogance: "Everyone's gone now, isn't it time to announce the results? I'm still busy here."

The person in charge was burning up inside, yet he knew that in this situation, he couldn't fight against the inevitable.

If he openly targeted Yun Ran, everyone would know without guessing that Gu Yuan, this annoying pest, would definitely come up and pluck the few remaining hairs on his head.

The person in charge stealthily glared at Gu Yuan and then coughed lightly before standing up.

He also put on a professional smile on his face: "Since the opponents have already surrendered, Lady Yun wins this challenge. Your position in the qualifying list is preserved, and moreover, all the wagers go to you."

When Yun Ran heard that her spot was preserved, she hardly reacted, but upon hearing that all wagers were hers, her smile immediately became as dazzling as the summer sun.

Knowing she had made a fortune, but under current circumstances, she still needed to keep a low profile, otherwise, it might sting some people's hearts.

Yun Ran immediately put on a fake smile: "It's all thanks to everyone being so gracious!"

After saying that, Yun Ran turned and walked away, pretending to be polite for a moment was enough; a better attitude was not to be expected.

Back in the resting area, Yun Ran looked at the table, which already had a full plate of melon seeds.

Yun Ran grabbed them, shoving handfuls into her mouth; this feeling, simply too blissful.

Dragon Spirit came over with a sullen face, carrying a demeanor of wanting to confront her and demand an explanation.

If it were any other time, would Yun Ran tolerate such a sullen face? She'd have slapped it away already.

But now, in a good mood, everything looks pleasing to her.

With melon seeds in her mouth, Yun Ran asked, "What's the matter?"

Dragon Spirit was instantly suffocated with irritation, still asking him what's the matter? It seems she has completely forgotten what she did before!

"I helped you earlier, and you didn't appreciate it, and even slapped my tail back, don't you know, it was painful?"

Yun Ran: ...

She immediately picked up the tablet by the table, flipped through it several times, and found the list of wagers given by those people earlier.

Then she shoved the tablet into Dragon Spirit's hand: "Alright, alright, I didn't recognize the good Dragon Heart, take your pick of these wagers, no limit, consider it my compensation, okay?"

When Yun Ran is generous, she is truly generous. Now that she's made a fortune, giving a little back to those who helped her out is only right.

The sulking Dragon Spirit, who originally wanted to take the moral high ground to properly scold Yun Ran, who usually is insufferable.

But now, seeing the tablet in his hand, especially the numerous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures on it, these were all things money could buy.

During the time he gained human form, since he had no identity, he could only rely on some products from the sea to make a fortune, and indeed he enjoyed it.

However, many good things were inaccessible to someone like him without an identity.

Especially now, as his gaze fell on several items he had previously desired, his heart was already torn between decisions.

Should he take this opportunity to give Yun Ran a good scolding and suppress her arrogance, or should he just take advantage of the situation, grab some benefits, and go?

Before he could decide, Yun Ran spoke up at this moment, perfectly catching his weak spot.

"Hurry and choose, I need others to pick as well. If we weren't so close, I wouldn't even let you choose first!"

Dragon Spirit's face was still puffed up in anger, but his heart was delighted, Yun Ran said they had the best relationship, allowing him to choose first~

But he would never let Yun Ran know that this made him thrilled.

He cleared his throat lightly, pretending to be indifferent, "Since you put it that way, I'll do you a favor then!"

Ginsengfruit glanced at Dragon Spirit, sensed the change in his tone, and hung its head again, not expecting Dragon Spirit to be the taciturn type!

Dragon Spirit picked everything he wanted, and Yun Ran showed no reaction, as if she didn't care about his greed at all.

This made Dragon Spirit feel a bit guilty, and he silently crossed out some items before handing the tablet back to Yun Ran.

"I'll just take these, and let's call it even about you pulling my dragon tail earlier."

Dragon Spirit was pleased, hummed a tune as he turned to leave, his light steps and the cheerful expression anyone could see reflected his good mood.

After Dragon Spirit walked away, Ginsengfruit said softly, "Host, seems like Dragon Spirit isn't very smart~"

"That's just fine, being too smart isn't always good. Just go with the flow."

"Kaka Kaka…" a few sounds were heard.

Those who hadn't left turned their gazes towards the still-hovering talisman.

What was supposed to be an incomparably strong Defense Talisman, now visibly had several cracks.

"I thought that the Attack Talisman was so powerful, but it was tightly controlled by the Defense Talisman. Now it seems that the Attack Talisman obviously caused damage to the Defense Talisman."

"Does this count as both suffering losses?"

"Am I the only one worried that if this Defense Talisman breaks, the previously distorted air might cause trouble?"

…

Yun Ran looked up at the nearly shattered Defense Talisman, quickly drew several more talismans, and sent them out.

Just then, the Defense Talisman shattered upon cue, and the air that was twisted due to suppression now made contact with normal air, immediately releasing a loud explosion.

With a huge "boom~".

Every person on the small island heard this sound, louder than thunder, yet it was a clear and sunny day with no signs of changing weather.

Had it not been for Yun Ran using other talismans to block the shockwave from the explosion, the nearby buildings in the region might have been completely leveled.

People who had no idea what had happened were all asking, "What's going on? Isn't the weather good?"
