Adrian let out a quiet sigh. It seemed that no matter what he said now, these two simply wouldn’t believe him.The other fighter appeared to have finished settling his affairs. He stood up and gave Adrian a firm pat on the shoulder.“Since fate brought us together for one last match, that makes us brothers of circumstance. When you see how we die out there, don’t be afraid—just make sure you’ve said everything you need to say.”Mamaha nodded in agreement.“His name is Heypawa, from the Ganz Kingdom. Kid, you’d better write your will now. If time runs short later, you might regret it.”Adrian offered an awkward smile and, somewhat unusually, extended his hand first.“Nice to meet you. I’m Adrian.”The three shook hands, becoming at least somewhat acquainted.Adrian understood that their intentions were kind, and his attitude toward them softened considerably.Heypawa shook his head with a trace of regret.“You’re far too young. It would be a terrible waste for you to die here.”Then, a

Maizart beamed as he took the contract, visibly relieved.In his elation, he couldn’t resist offering a few extra compliments.“Mr. Angbitai truly lives up to his reputation as a leading figure in the jade world—decisive and straightforward!”“One can tell at a glance—you’re a man destined for great things. I personally admire your bearing immensely!”Angbitai was thoroughly displeased, though he kept it from showing too plainly on his face.“You flatter me. You’ve seen how I conduct myself. I accept this loss wholeheartedly, but in the spirit of friendly competition, I’d like another round.”Another round?Not just Maizart—everyone watching was taken aback.After all, Angbitai had suffered a devastating loss, yet he still wanted to continue.“Is Angbitai trying to win it back?”“Obviously! That’s an entire jade mine on the line!”“I still think Mr. Lincoln, the Heavenly Eye, is the real deal. That kid might’ve just gotten lucky.”“That makes sense… now I’m getting interested.”Adrian

As the stone cutter worked, the rough stone was gradually split open, revealing a crystalline green within.“It’s green! And it’s glass-type jade!”“My God, as expected of Mr. Lincoln, the Heavenly Eye! If the whole piece turns out to be glass-type, that’s a massive win!”“I’m so jealous—if only Mr. Lincoln would pick a stone for me, I’d be smiling even in my dreams!”“Keep dreaming. Do you really think someone like Mr. Lincoln is within your reach?”“This piece alone has to be worth at least $100 million!”Wave after wave of excited exclamations filled the air, and Angbitai lifted his chin high, basking confidently in the surrounding admiration and envy.Though most of the praise was directed at Mr. Lincoln, he himself showed little reaction.Mr. Lincoln stepped forward to the stone and calmly pointed at several spots.“Here, here, and here. Cut.”The cutters dared not slack off. They immediately picked up their tools and carefully followed his ???????, slicing along the marked lines

Once one person voiced it, the murmurs only grew louder.“It seems Mr. Maizart is destined to lose this time…”“I’ve always believed in miracles—but not this one.”“How could Mr. Maizart choose someone like that as his appraiser?”The steady stream of doubt weighed heavily on Maizart, dragging his spirits to the depths.Even he could almost foresee the outcome.Lincoln Ashford felt his heart lodged in his throat.He no longer dared to guarantee Adrian’s victory—after all, the title “Heavenly Eye” alone spoke of formidable skill.The only one who remained composed was Adrian.His calm demeanor made it seem as though none of this concerned him.Maizart let out a sigh, while Adrian simply waved a hand, utterly unburdened.“Until the final moment, nothing is decided. Don’t worry.”Hearing this, Maizart couldn’t help but envy Adrian’s composure.Before he could settle his thoughts, Angbitai spoke again.“Everyone present—today, I’m covering all stone gambling expenses. Enjoy yourselves! Wi

Lincoln Ashford had initially been eager to join in, but upon seeing Angbitai, he hesitated.He glanced at Adrian, intending to follow his lead.Adrian waved a hand casually. “Then let’s indulge them for a round. I’ll appraise the stones for Mr. Maizart.”His tone was light, almost effortless, yet Maizart couldn’t help but feel uneasy.After all, Angbitai was deeply entrenched in the jade trade, handling raw stones daily.More importantly, his younger brother Gexiby was renowned throughout the Ganz Kingdom as a master appraiser.Lincoln Ashford sensed Maizart’s concern, but having witnessed Adrian’s abilities firsthand, he remained confident.“Don’t worry—Mr. Doyle is far more capable than you think.”Adrian arched a brow with a faint smile, signaling Maizart to set aside his worries and proceed.Maizart trusted Lincoln’s judgment. Having seen Gexiby’s skill before, if Lincoln believed Adrian could match him, then it was likely so.“Since you’ve proposed it, then let’s wager.”Angbita

“It’s fine. You can wait here—I’ll go in alone and take a look.”Maizart immediately objected. The place was far too dangerous, and Adrian had just saved his life—how could he allow him to walk into risk alone?Even Lincoln Ashford sided with him.“Mr. Doyle, it’s best not to go for now. Mines deep in the mountains like this have treacherous terrain, and many of the paths were only hastily constructed by workers.”“Without someone familiar with the area to guide you, you might not even find the mine—getting lost is far more likely. That would waste time and put you in constant danger.”Adrian considered this and found it reasonable. If he truly lost his way, it would cost him far too much time.The three of them drove away from the jade mine, gradually leaving the mountain behind. Lincoln Ashford turned to Maizart with a teasing smile.“Mr. Doyle and I have come a long way—aren’t you going to show us your famous ‘hidden paradise’?”At the mention of it, Adrian, though not especially i
