Seeing how quickly Zhang Bin folded this round, the other contestants instantly knew Buck had temporarily interfered with his Special Ability.

They all looked at him with pity.

In fact, just by making it into the top ten, they had all become big winners. They would never lack for invitations from major casinos to come and preside over their tables.

However, Zhang Bin could not afford to lose. He had a bet with Changdao Sheng: if he lost, he would have to eat feces.

This was a complete catastrophe that would utterly destroy his reputation. No casino would ever hire someone who had eaten feces to represent them, and he would be a laughingstock for the rest of his life.

Poor guy, he's in an even worse spot than I am. My luck ability is the only one Buck interfered with. My memory ability is still intact, and so is my Clairvoyance Ability. I still have a chance to get a good result, Hebra, the dark horse from France, muttered to himself.

"My dear viewers, have you figured out the secret yet? The contestants who made it into the top ten are all super-skilled gambling masters! They have terrifying memories that allow them to remember the croupier's shuffling order. Because of this, they won't fall for bluffs, nor will they lose too much at once, making it very hard for them to lose all their chips," the commentator said excitedly. "However, even their memories can tire. Right now, it seems the memory of China's contestant, Zhang Bin, is having issues. A moment ago, his face was full of pain and confusion. He obviously couldn't remember his cards, which is why he folded so quickly this round."

The TV screen was quickly replaying the close-up of Zhang Bin's expression from just before, which indeed seemed to confirm the commentator's words.

"Hahaha… Zhang Bin, you're about to lose everything! You're going to be the one eating feces!"

"Changdao Sheng for the win! Zhang Bin is finished!"

"You can't be so arrogant anymore, Zhang Bin!"

The audience from the Island Nation shouted excitedly, their faces filled with elation.

Meanwhile, the Chinese audience grew tense, and their expressions soured.

"What's going on? Is Brother Bin in some kind of trouble?"

Chen Chaoyue and Ma Rufei looked at each other, shocked and uncertain. They had never seen such an expression on Zhang Bin's face; he was always brimming with confidence. Even during the first round, when faced with such a desperate situation, he had shown no sign of dejection or pain. He had still turned the tables with ease.

"My brother-in-law's memory is terrifyingly sharp, truly photographic. How could he suddenly forget the cards?" Liu Ruomei, who was watching from Sanchahe Village, was also furious. "Someone must be playing dirty."

Xiao Fang and Liu Ruolan were equally furious, sharing the same suspicion.

Mother Zhang wore a puzzled expression, but she wasn't overly worried. She said casually, "Don't panic. I know what my son is capable of. He will definitely win. That idiot from the Island Nation can just wait to eat feces."

However, on closer inspection, her hands were trembling slightly. Clearly, her boast lacked real confidence.

"Zhang Bin, I'm really looking forward to the spectacle of you eating feces," Changdao Sheng couldn't suppress his glee. For just one hundred million USD, he had gotten Buck to interfere with Zhang Bin's Special Ability. He had avoided humiliation and completely turned the tables. Now, Zhang Bin was the one facing that disgusting fate. What a bargain!

"Hahaha… Zhang Bin, I'm really looking forward to seeing you eat feces, too," Buck said with a grim smile, staring intently at Zhang Bin.

"How about we make a bet?" A malicious glint appeared on Zhang Bin's face. "If I win more than you this round, you'll have to eat feces too. Buck, do you dare?"

As for Changdao Sheng, Zhang Bin couldn't be bothered with him. That guy was destined to eat feces anyway. It was Buck he needed to deal with properly. How dare he accept a bribe from Changdao Sheng and use an interference ability on him.

"Eating shit? That's too uncivilized. We Americans don't make bets like that," Buck sneered. "However, I do like your two Space Rings. How about I bet this treasure against them?"

A peculiar item suddenly appeared in Buck's hand. It was an ancient fan, decorated with a majestic, towering mountain. The design was the same on both sides, depicting two faces of the same great mountain, and it radiated an exceptionally mysterious aura. However, there were a few small holes in the pattern, as if it were damaged. The fan's ribs were also unique, resembling white jade but far too flexible and resilient to actually be jade.

"You want to compare a battered fan to my Space Rings?" A look of disdain crossed Zhang Bin's face.

"You don't recognize a true treasure when you see one," Buck countered coldly. "I found this fan in a secret chest within an ancient ruin. After studying it with modern technology, I've determined this fan is 2.3 billion years old. Leaving aside that it might be some kind of Magical Treasure, its historical value alone is not inferior to your Space Rings."

Using the miraculous Tutu to quickly search the internet for information on Buck, Zhang Bin discovered he was telling the truth. He grew secretly excited. An ancient fan that was 2.3 billion years old and so well-hidden had to hold a significant secret.

Still, he remained perfectly composed and said indifferently, "No matter how old it is, it's still just a broken fan. A damaged fan can't be considered a Magical Treasure anymore. It's worthless. If you want to bet, fine. You stake your Space Ring and this fan. My wager will be my two Space Rings. How about it?"

Buck watched Zhang Bin coldly for a moment before agreeing with a fierce grin. He had already interfered with Zhang Bin's Special Ability; he refused to believe Zhang Bin could still possess some heaven-defying power. This was a bet he couldn't possibly lose. Winning two Space Rings from Zhang Bin would be a massive stroke of luck; after all, they represented a vast fortune. With this, his goal of provoking Zhang Bin was achieved. On top of that, he would still receive a one-hundred-million-USD payment from Changdao Sheng. It was like killing two birds with one stone, reaping benefits from all sides.

Since this was the World King of Gamblers Competition, side bets between contestants weren't just allowed—they were greatly encouraged. They added to the entertainment, piqued the audience's curiosity, and helped boost ratings and expand the competition's influence.

Therefore, the main game was paused for their personal wager.

"My dear viewers, did you see that? Zhang Bin and Buck have made a side bet! Let's wait with bated breath to see who will emerge victorious!" the American commentator yelled frantically, overcome with excitement.

"Buck is guaranteed to win! Zhang Bin is finished!"

"Just wait and lose, Zhang Bin!"

"All your treasures will belong to Buck now!"

The American spectators began shouting fanatically, creating an exceptionally heated atmosphere. After all, Buck was a legend in America with a terrifying record, having never lost a match. He had countless fans.

The Chinese audience, of course, refused to be outdone. They roared back with equal ferocity, declaring that Zhang Bin was invincible and his victory was certain.

Ma Rufei smirked mischievously and said excitedly, "So that's it, my Master is the one setting a trap! This time, Buck is out of luck."

"Buck is definitely going to lose," Chen Chaoyue added, just as excited.

"You two are so naive. Buck is a god-like figure; how could he possibly lose?" Betty retorted.

The other two beauties chimed in, "Buck is invincible. Zhang Bin is being stupid betting against him!"
