The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 529 No Chance of Winning

Daniel's comments instantly transformed Black's gentlemanly smile into a dark scowl.

"You play chess with a dog and lose nine out of ten games, and now you dare to play against me?"

"That's right! I may lose nine out of ten against it, but against you, brother, I’m sure I can win all ten games without losing a single one," Daniel boasted.

This provoked Black to anger immediately. "What do you mean by that? Are you saying I'm inferior to a dog?"

"You might beat any other dog, but not Da Huang. I can't even beat him, let alone you."

Manly couldn’t stand it anymore and lashed out at Daniel, "Country boy, how dare you disrespect my brother!"

"Manly, we should always speak the truth! How have I disrespected him? Every word I say comes straight from the heart and is the absolute truth."

"The truth? You claim you can’t beat a dog at chess but can beat my brother? What you’re saying is nothing but nonsense!"

"Why not play a game and see whether it's nonsense?" Daniel chuckled.

Black joined in, his voice cold, "Country boy, do you know the rules of playing chess here?"

"Rules?" Daniel shook his head. "No, I don’t."

"You dare to come play chess without knowing the rules?"
