It sounds like a somewhat friendly bet. After all, to lose, each participant tries to cut smaller pieces with their knife.
But in reality, this isn't the whole bet, since the participants aren't fixed. Each time someone is eliminated, they gradually cut away all the easily accessible skin on the body of this player, and then move on to other parts.
"How long will this bet last?" Xu Huo asked.
"Until the carnival begins." The player next to him didn't even look up, just trying to invite him to join this warm-up.
The bound player was naked, struggling uncontrollably in fear and anger. But if his struggling caused a player to win the bet, the winner would vent their frustration on him. A whip or shaving off hair and eyebrows were the lightest punishments... Every act of abuse would be met with the cheers of the onlookers.
"Are these people... all crazy?" An irrepressible exclamation came from behind, causing several players to turn their heads, making the scene go quiet.
