"The eight fellow Taoists present, we will enter the next round of competition. You can rest for a while. We will take out the things for the next round of competition!" At this time, Mrs. Jin came out again and presided over the bet.

After Mrs. Jin's words fell, the other losers left the central area, leaving only eight advanced people to sit down, and several maids specially moved to the chairs.

Lin Haoming didn't care about it before, but now she found that An Lei had really misunderstood her and actually deliberately sat away from her.

Lin Haoming naturally didn't care about this, and it was really only a moment. Under Mrs. Jin's urging, the items for the next round of competition had been brought up.

The things brought up this time were a bit surprising, because they were actually eight almost identical candlesticks, and there were candles inserted on these eight candlesticks. However, these candles are not exactly the same as candlesticks, but they are different in length, thickness, and colors.

The most touching and interesting thing about Tian Yuntang’s gambling is that you can encounter new tricks every time you bet. At this moment, Lin Haoming just noticed the curious voices of the people watching the game around him, and knew that this time it might be a new gambling method.

With the candlesticks set up, Mrs. Jin walked out again with a smile and said to the eight people who advanced to this round: "Eight fellow Taoists, this is the event of our second round of competition. There are eight candlesticks here, and the candlesticks are exactly the same. The difference is the candles inserted on it. The rules of this game are slightly different from the previous one. We will fight in pairs. According to the order of your advancement in the previous round, everyone has ten breaths to choose the candle. After the selection, we will take this order as the order. The first one is selected and the last one is selected. Whose can burn for a longer time, the second one is selected and the seventh one is selected, the third one is selected, the fourth one is selected, the fourth one is selected, the fourth one is selected, the winner will get the chance to advance to the next round."

The benefits, at this time, Lin Haoming finally understood what benefits are, which is the benefits of choosing candles in the next round.

Lin Haoming couldn't help but look at An Lei. The first person to choose the right one obviously has a great advantage. In ten breaths, even if he can't choose the candle that can burn the longest, he will definitely not choose the worst one. In order, he is the fifth one. If the first four choose the first four, he will definitely lose. Even if it is not the case, if Yang Bei, who is playing against him, he will definitely win.

Thinking of this, Lin Haoming couldn't help but look at Yang Bei who was in front of him. Yang Bei was quite relaxed and smiled at Lin Haoming and said, "I didn't expect you and I will face each other. As an alchemist, Fellow Daoist Chu probably won't be able to defeat Yang!"

Lin Haoming would not really see this bet, and he smiled politely: "Fellow Daoist Yang has a profound cultivation and knowledgeable experience, so Chu is not as good as that."

The two of them greeted each other, but each other knew that it was just a greeting. At this time, An Lei, the first to advance from the first round, had already chosen.

The reason why the eight candles were put out on the same candlestick was entirely because the candlestick itself designed a small ban. Apart from seeing the candle, you can't find out anything, and you don't even know the smell. Only by walking into the candlestick ban can you take a closer look.

In fact, I can only walk around it briefly and cannot carefully observe it. This also leaves a chance for the four monks who choose the next four. After all, if you really give enough time to carefully distinguish the people present, anyone can choose the best one.

An Lei stayed in front of each candlestick for a moment, and then walked to the next one. After walking it once, she did not hesitate at all, and returned to one of the black candles and selected this candlestick. According to the rules, she directly placed her jade plaque on it.

Lin Haoming looked at this black candle carefully. It was the thickest among all candles. Although it was not the longest, it was judged by common sense that the burning time was definitely the longest.

However, Lin Haoming believes that An Lei should not choose the most lasting one. After all, after learning about the methods of setting up these gambling people, Lin Haoming felt that this person would never do so obviously. However, similarly, An Lei's choice of this candle cannot burn the fastest. Compared with the last person to choose from her opponent, her winning rate is still extremely high.

Next, it was another whisker monk who went out to choose. This person was the right choice for the great fortune, but he was quite calm at this moment. He also quickly walked in front of the remaining seven candlesticks and chose the longest red candle.

Seeing that he made such a choice, Lin Haoming obviously understood his intention. Even if this candle is not the one that can burn for the longest time, it will definitely not be the shortest. When he faces only the second-last person to choose, he naturally has a great advantage.

Both of them looked natural, and it was Qiao Weiying's turn. He walked up and selected the remaining six candles.

Because he lacked two candles, he stayed in front of each candle for a longer time. He stayed in front of one of the shortest green candles for three breaths, but in the end he did not choose, but chose a candle with an ordinary body shape but a white color.

After he made a choice, he smiled slightly at Yang Bei. Yang Bei nodded and smiled, and then walked towards the candlestick. I don’t know if it was because of Qiao Weiying, Yang Bei stayed in front of the short candle for three breaths and finally chose this candle.

Seeing this, Lin Haoming couldn't help but frown slightly, because he was somewhat suspicious about whether this candle would actually be the best one, but since Yang Bei had chosen to leave, he had no choice.

When Yang Bei came back, Lin Haoming looked at the remaining four candles and walked towards the one he had liked early in the morning.

The first one was a beige candle, which was as long as the thickness. However, when he walked into the ban, Lin Haoming smelled a faint fragrance and didn't know what it was made of.

The second one is the most ordinary red candle. After Lin Haoming walked in, he even suspected that this candle was used by ordinary people. It was just that the time was too short and there was no time to identify it.

The third one is blood-red, and it also has a bloody smell, giving people a bad feeling, but considering the burning time, this evil thing may last for a long time.
