Chapter 492 - The Scum Is A Ghost
"HUI LU!" Hui Na and Hui Qu cried and watched Hui Lu fell on the ground and writhed in pain as she touched her face!
"AH!" Hui Qu suddenly cried when she felt her bone snapped! Her arm was dislocated!
"Bastard!" Hui Na murderously glared at their opponent.
But, their opponent grinned before he swung his body and his feet hit the wall of the canyon. Suddenly, the three women, as well as the audience, heard something cracked. Then, everyone saw that the three women\'s eyes widened in shock when the ground they are standing on tilted! Their opponent, through some method, broke the ground they are standing on!
"AAAAAH!" they all screamed as they fell on the river.
"AIYO!" the audience exclaimed and covered their eyes, scared to see the four people\'s bodies would turn into mincemeat. But, there was no blood nor flesh that splattered since the four of them exactly fell on the river!
The river saved them!
"DAMN IT! This is so exciting!" the audience exclaimed in both shock and awe.
Meanwhile, Hui Qiu sighed in relief when she saw that her disciples floated on the surface of the river, and the three of them are conscious, yet badly injured.
"The participants know not to kill their opponents, or they will be eliminated." Zheng Fu Gong spoke.
"Elder Zheng…"
"Of course, there will be no accidental deaths, either, from their various magic tools, potions, pills, powder, etc. that they will use since we have already checked that they are not lethal." Zheng Fu Gong added.
Everyone clapped at the Righteous Alliance\'s safety measures and then continued to watch the competition. But, they didn\'t expect to suddenly hear something.
"So, should we sneak attack them tonight while they sleep?" Sun Ri asked Wen Wen, Cui Xiang and Cui Xiao.
"Well…" the three Xinfaxian Sect disciples looked at each other before they turned to Sun Ri. "We already have a plan. Since we\'re friends now, we don\'t know if you will join us." They told her.
"What plan?" Sun Ri curiously asked.
"To lie down and win." Cui Xiao answered.
"… what?" Sun Ri blinked and skeptically looked at the three.
Cui Xiang smiled. "Defense is also offense." She spoke. "Wen Wen\'s talisman formation is impenetrable. We can also go out and attack them just outside. We don\'t have to go out far." She said.
"So, what you mean is…?" Sun Ri still doesn\'t understand.
"We can just have them all attack each other and wait until there are twenty people left, including us." Wen Wen answered. "This is borrowing someone else\'s knife." He added and smiled.
Sun Ri. "…" … I see. She thought as her lip twitched when she finally understood.
The audience, as well as the sect leaders and elders. "…" well, fck. Here they go again! They all thought and inwardly cursed.
"… may I ask something?" Sun Ri spoke when she regained her composure.
"Yes?" Cui Xiang\'s smile became brighter, as if she can guess Sun Ri\'s thoughts and what she is currently feeling now.
Sun Ri\'s brow twitched when she saw Cui Xiang\'s smile. … you really can\'t underestimate the Xinfaxian Sect… she thought. "It is elder Cheng Sheng who taught you these… right?" she asked. … in terms of shamelessness. She added.
"Yes." The three of them nodded, as expected.
Sun Ri. "…" hehe.
The audience, including the sect leaders and elders. "…" as expected, it\'s Cheng Sheng again! They all roared in their minds as their faces were covered in black lines. He isn\'t participating in the competition but his \'ghost\' still lingers! Does he have resentment towards the Intersect Competition?! They thought, don\'t know whether to laugh or cry.
Cheng Sheng, who finally finished refining the Spirit Tracing Bell. "Achoo!" he suddenly sneezed and rubbed his itchy nose that become red. "Who is talking about me, really?" he asked and yawned while he stretched his limbs. There are dark circles under his eyes, and coupled with his fair face, he now looks like a panda.
He rubbed his eyes before he rose from his seat, picked up the Spirit Tracing Bell and left his room to call Chen Jing, Wu Fan, Sun Rong and Qie Shi. After they test it, he will take a break before refining another bell.
…
This year\'s Intersect Competition is bound to be very thrilling. Each of the arenas have its own uniqueness, and so is the sand arena, where two participants are actively attacking each other like there is no tomorrow, making the other participants around, instead of fishing in troubled waters, flee from fright because they are afraid of being buried in sand accidentally!
"Ugh…" Xi Bing grunted in disdain as he, Sun Yuan, Fei Luo and Fei Huo watched Xi He and Wu Tie fight.
It has already been two hours and they still continue to fight, making the sand dunes fly all over. If not for them setting up a barrier in advance when they saw that Xi He and Wu Tie are itching to tear each other apart, the five of them must have been ten meters under the sand now.
"Woah… things are also getting real hot in this side!" the audience exclaimed as they watched in excitement Xi He and Wu Tie fight!
Each attack can peel off one\'s skin… this is the real dog fight!
…
"I wonder how the other arenas are going on right now…" Chen Yu spoke as he dazed off after eating their dinner.
"Before you worry for others, can\'t you worry about yourself first?" Chen Su told him.
"Chen Su-xiong is right." Tang Li nodded. "How are we going to now?" he asked them.
"Before that, we are going to form an alliance, right?" Chen Wu asked as he looked at Tang Li and Li Yan.
"Of course!" Tang Li answered in a matter-of-fact tone.
"We are only sixteen people, and only need to find four more people to fill in the twenty places. I\'m in." Li Yan said.
The other four Youxiwang Sect disciples, four Huakai Sect disciples and two Huli Sect disciples who are part of the background and never have spoken a word. "…" please don\'t mind us and continue with the scene…
"Then, the alliance is decided." Chen Wu spoke. "So, any ideas how should we go tonight? Attack the other participants or rest and start tomorrow?" he asked.
"Let\'s rest first." Wu Lian answered. "The opponents can\'t run anywhere, or they can also leave the competition." He said.
"Well, that\'s true. Even if we won\'t act tonight, the other participants can eliminate the other participants for us." Tang Li smiled.
Li Yan nodded in agreement. "Let\'s not waste energy and rest to preserve more strength. They will be tired tomorrow but we aren\'t, so they will be easy targets tomorrow for us." He said.
Everyone looked at him.
"Li-xiong…" Chen Su called. "This plan… did you learn it from elder Cheng Sheng?" he asked when he remembered the Intersect Competition before where Cheng Sheng and the others participated.
In one of the stages, the Xinfaxian Sect and the Youxiwang Sect waited until the Shanliangde Sect, Zunjingde Sect, Qianxu Sect, Huakai Sect and Huli Sect to exhaust themselves before they acted.
"That\'s right." Li Yan honestly answered. "It isn\'t against the rules to apply this tactic in the competition, right?" he asked before he smiled like a fox. "After all, this is just learning from a senior." He said.
Tang Li and the Youxiwang Sect. "… oh." They muttered and smiled, immediately understood what he is implying.
The audience, as well as the sect leaders and elders who heard their conversation. "…" well, fck! Why is it Cheng Sheng again?! They thought. He isn\'t here but his prints are everywhere!
Li Nanzi sweated and clenched his fists not to wipe the sweat off of his forehead when he saw that everyone is looking at him. His lip twitched. "… it is good to learn from a senior." He spoke and forced a smile.
The other sect leaders. "…" so this is how you will play! They thought as their faces darkened.
Indeed, Cheng Sheng\'s ingenuous tactics, although unorthodox, but is very effective. Since everyone wants to win, as long as it won\'t harm others, then they can use Cheng Sheng\'s tactics! As Li Yan said just now, it isn\'t against the rules to borrow someone\'s tactics. In fact, it is a good decision and heartwarming to learn from a senior!
But! This is Cheng! Sheng! Ai… they felt conflicted. Even if Cheng Sheng would really become a ghost in the future, but it is already proven that he will forever be remembered! But, of course, albeit he is a scum, but he is very important in their hearts so they won\'t let him turn into a ghost!
"Huh? Brother?" Sun Yi muttered when he saw Sun Rong walking towards them with a smile.
Sun Rong stopped before them and looked at each one of them. "Everyone… the Spirit Tracing Bell has been finished.." He told them.
