Chapter 745: Chapter 372 Preparing for a Hard Fight Kongkong_2

In the red group, Long Dangdang and the number one seed player from the Summoners Temple both advanced with undefeated records. The final day of competition would decide who would become the group leader.

In the yellow group, Chu Yu made it out as the first in the group along with Wang Changxin, who managed to win narrowly against his opponent on the penultimate day of competition, advancing as the second in the group.

Lastly, in the death group, the blue one, Long Kongkong had made sure of his advancement. If Zisang Liuying was going to advance straight out, it depended on the final day of competition, whether she could defeat Long Kongkong, who seemed to be the strongest representative of the Knights Temple. This was also the last round of the Great Impartation Contest that was attracting everyone’s attention.

If Zisang Liuying lost this match, it would mean that the Magic Temple had lost the qualification for the championship. They could only pin their hopes on Long Dangdang, who represented the Magic Temple in the competition but also had knight lineage.

The final round of the match was still intense. Except for Ming Xi who had not been able to enter the top thirty-six of the Great Impartation Contest and had secluded himself for meditation, all the members of Demon Hunter Team 19115897 gathered together at this time.

Although the final round of this round-robin competition didn’t have a significant impact on the final results of each group, every participant was still giving their all. This was because the position in the group rankings would affect their ranking within their respective Temples, and the allocation of resources and biases in their respective Temples. The significance of the Great Impartation Contest was clear to everyone. For the 6 Great Sacred Temples, it was a true selection for the inheritor. After the contest, it would be the starting point for the real war against the Wraith Kingdom. In these critical times heroes emerge. Who wouldn’t wish to seize some advantages?

Everyone watched the match taking place below, their mental states calm as the major events have been decided.

For Yue Li and Tao Linlin, being able to enter the top six and into the final round was already an over-achievement. Although their rankings within their respective groups were not high, they were satisfied enough. Apart from these two, the remaining four of their team had made it into the top eight. Keep in mind, they’re all members of the same demon hunting team! Having four people enter the top eight is terrifying. Even the team of Zisang Liuying, only Chu Yu and Tang Leiguang had made it into the finals so far. If Zisang manages to enter today, there would still be one less than them. Nearly monopolizing the spots in the top eight with two teams.

This also meant that if everything went smoothly, in the future they would be seen as leader-level figures in their own Temples.

"Why do I feel a sense of superiority watching them compete?" Long Kongkong said with a mischievous smile.

Long Dangdang ignored him, and surprisingly, no one else said much either. It was truly because he had performed exceedingly well this time.

He was in the death group! He had defeated strong opponents one after another and advanced early. He even exceeded Zisang Liuying, who had forfeited a match. Such results indeed made him worthy of boasting.

Tao Linlin asked, "Kongkong, if you forfeit to Zisang Liuying, won’t you be considered first in the group? According to the winning relationships, wouldn’t you advance as the second? Will the remaining eight draw lots or will it be arranged according to the current groups?"

Ling Menglu replied, "There should still be a drawing of lots to keep things fair and the final rankings of groups can’t be manipulated. This Great Impartation Contest has been completely fair in its designs."

Tao Linlin said, "Then it doesn’t matter."

However, Long Kongkong glanced at him and suddenly asked, "Forfeit? Why would I forfeit?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone, including Long Dangdang, turned their eyes towards him.

Long Kongkong cracked a smile, "Why are you all looking at me? Were you impressed by my courage? That’s right, I’m not planning to forfeit today. I want to take on Zisang head-on, letting her see what a real man is like."

"Are you serious? I can assure you that Zisang Liuying’s Chaos Dragon is definitely not afraid of the Rat King." Long Dangdang frowned and spoke with disbelief, due to his deep understanding of his twin brother, Long Kongkong’s worrisome claim. When did his lazy and safety-conscious brother become so courageous and industrious? What happened to his ’safety first’ principle?

Long Kongkong glanced at him and said, "You underestimate your excellent brother. This is a competition, and there’s no real danger. Plus, I’ve ensured my progression to the next round, so even if I lose to her, it won’t affect my position in the top eight, so why not give it a try? Moreover, I am a representative of the Knights Temple. If I can actually defeat Zisang, Shi Zeyu may have a chance to represent the Knights Temple and secure another position, even though he’s unlikely to defeat Zisang. You should know that this might be my best chance to defeat Zisang Liuying."

A realisation hit Long Dangdang, understanding his brother’s intention. Indeed, from a psychological perspective, this could be Long Kongkong’s best opportunity. In the final rounds, the elimination system could definitely affect his performance if he felt pressured. But now, as he said, he doesn’t care about winning or losing. All he needs to do is give it his all. Zisang Liuying can’t really do anything to him now, so it’s indeed a good opportunity. In this moment, Long Dangdang also understood another reason for his brother’s decision - to probe Zisang Liuying’s real abilities.

Their team has four members who have made it to the top eight, they will undoubtedly strive for the ultimate championship. Whoever achieves the final victory will surely become the leader of the next generation’s 6 Great Sacred Temples. Blocking their way, their most formidable competitor, is undoubtedly Zisang Liuying.

It appeared that Ling Menglu understood as well. Blinking her eyes, she said, "Kongkong, you’ve grown up!"

Long Kongkong rolled his eyes and said, "Cousin, even though you only have eyes for my brother, don’t forget, we are only one hour apart in age. If I haven’t grown up before this, what about him? You should know that I’m a man who has a girlfriend."

Speaking of his girlfriend, there was a slight change in his smiling face, and her beautiful face flashed through his mind. He clenched his fist subconsciously.

"Once decided, go for it," Long Dangdang said.

Long Kongkong grunted, not saying anything more, but sat down on the ground, ready for meditation. Facing Zisang Liuying, he must ensure that he is at his best state.

On the other side, Zisang Liuying and his companions were also paying close attention to the ongoing competition. Compared to the relaxed atmosphere around Demon Hunter Team 19115897, their side felt slightly tense.

Cai Caijuan, who still couldn’t make it through the competition even after being yielded to by Zisang Liuying, was visibly downcast. All along, she had been a proud summoner of the Summoners Temple, a Phoenix Summoner. Even the number one seed was ranked above her only because he was older and had a higher cultivation level.

Her back-to-back losses in the group stage were unexpected and served as a significant blow to her confidence.

"Kongkong wants to compete?" Tang Leiguang suddenly asked with surprise.

Everyone immediately followed his gaze, spotting Long Kongkong sitting cross-legged on the ground in meditation.

Everybody’s faces changed slightly.

Even in their minds, Long Kongkong, who had already secured a place in the next round, didn’t really need to compete fiercely with Zisang Liuying. As there wasn’t much of an advantage between the first and second group stages other than their internal rankings within their respective Temples. And they knew that Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong were not very close to Shi Zeyu. But from Kongkong’s current state, he seemed to be preparing to battle Zisang Liuying directly.

"If he wants to fight, he can." Zisang Liuying’s face remained calm, his gaze cold and sharp. With narrowed eyes, he watched Long Kongkong from afar.
