Because there were a lot of people placing bets, and Lu Xiao wasn't being secretive about it.
So, the news that he had placed a bet of five hundred million US dollars on Edson under the name of Chen Fei spread throughout the entire competition area in a very short time.
It wasn't just the competition area; even people watching and betting remotely had already received the news.
Although the total amount of money bet could reach two hundred billion or even more.
But as of now, Lu Xiao's five hundred million US dollar bet was indeed unique.
Moreover, Lu Xiao had only placed his bet on Edson and did not hedge his risks by betting on other competitors.
If he won, Edson's odds were merely 1.2, merely netting him six hundred million US dollars.
But if he lost, that would be a whole five hundred million down the drain.
At Hua Country's 17th Bureau, Goo Yuexing's eyebrows were furrowed as he paced back and forth in his office.
