Chapter 477: Four hundred seventy-five, Competition (8)
The elders of Qingfeng Academy shook their heads helplessly. Now, all they felt was regret, deep regret. If they hadn’t driven Luo Shu away, not only could they have made a great name for themselves in this competition against Tianchi Country, but they might have also taken first place in the four-nation confrontation with Luo Shu’s help. What glory that would have been! Alas, they had destroyed it all with their own hands.
After seeing Luo Shu become a Spirit Division Cultivator, Li Yuyang had completely abandoned any thoughts of making her an enemy. What would be the difference between opposing her and seeking death? He hated Luo Shu, that was true, but he wasn’t foolish enough to seek death knowingly.
Upon returning to the hotel, Luo Shu shared the news of her advancement with Lu Hanmo.
The two chatted happily until dawn before reluctantly ending their conversation.
Just like the day before, the hotel served Luo Shu a lavish breakfast.
After breakfast, Luo Shu joined everyone else at the competition venue.
The fifth match was a duel, and it started promptly at nine o’clock as always.
After everyone drew lots to determine their opponents, the competition officially began.
Because of the large number of participants in the fifth match, the organizers divided the venue into ten stages where ten pairs of competitors would compete simultaneously.
Luo Shu glanced at the number in her hand, three hundred and twenty. With her current strength, she didn’t want to participate in this match, but the scoring rules for this match were different from the previous ones.
In this match, defeating each competitor would earn a corresponding number of points. Thus, it was possible that the winner of first place could end up with dozens or even over a hundred points.
Consequently, her score could be quickly surpassed even if she had placed first in the first three matches. Not taking part in this round could still spell elimination. For this reason, there were many participants in this match, with nearly everyone above Foundation Establishment level taking part.
The competition on the field was in full swing, with cheers and screams erupting from the spectators beside each stage.
When Luo Shu saw her number appear on the Formation Display Screen, she stepped onto the stage.
"Ah! It’s Luo Shu! Look! Luo Shu is on the stage!"
"Luo Shu, you’re our idol, we worship you!"
"Luo Shu, show your monstrous true colors and torture your opponent to death!" As soon as the spectators saw Luo Shu take the stage, they all screamed frantically. The entire venue was nearly overturned by this wave of noise.
Luo Shu touched her nose, smiling awkwardly at the audience. Even though her advancement the day before was unexpected, this time she had indeed been a bit too high-profile.
"I concede!" her opponent announced as soon as he stepped onto the stage. Facing Luo Shu in his current strength was simply masochism.
After saying this, he stepped down from the stage.
Luo Shu remained standing, waiting for the next competitor to come up.
Next was Ma Qiuying. She looked at Luo Shu for a long time before speaking slowly, "I concede!" Initially, she had wanted to fight a good match with Luo Shu, but now she didn’t even qualify to fight.
With indescribable reluctance, Ma Qiuying glanced at Luo Shu one last time before stepping down from the stage.
The next competitor did the same, conceding as soon as they got on the stage.
And so, with minimal effort, Luo Shu secured victory after victory on the stage.
Luo Shu was speechless, so were the audience and the judges. But they knew it was an inevitable result.
At the end of the last match, Luo Shu unsurprisingly took first place in the competition, letting the oft-looked-down-upon Upper Pavilion bask in glory for once.
"Our city lord invites you!" While Luo Shu was chatting with the people from the Upper Pavilion, a middle-aged cultivator approached her and relayed the message.
"Alright," answered Luo Shu, following the middle-aged cultivator.
Entering an extremely elegantly decorated hall, Luo Shu saw that there were four or five people sitting inside. Among them was the cultivator who had registered her.
"The little monster has arrived, come sit!" Mo Qingli said with a smile, gesturing to a place beside her.
Luo Shu was taken aback and gave the other party a somewhat speechless look. She admitted that she had indeed been somewhat high-profile this time, but that was no reason to call her that!
Mo Qingli laughed heartily, "Sit down!"
Luo Shu nodded to everyone present and took a seat.
"Let me introduce myself, I am Mo Qingli, the city lord of Tianchi City. These are Elder Xu, Elder Li, Elder He, and Elder Lu," Mo Qingli introduced to Luo Shu.
Luo Shu stood up and greeted everyone with a clasped fist, "Greetings!"
The others returned her greeting with smiles. They quite appreciated Luo Shu’s modest demeanor. Given her young age, outstanding talent, and stellar results, it would have been easy to be arrogant. Yet, she was calm and composed, as if all the success was unrelated to her. Perhaps it was precisely for this reason she was able to achieve such excellent results.
Mo Qingli took a sip of tea and began to speak, "Luo..." Seeing Luo Shu’s glare, she quickly corrected herself with a smile, "Luo Shu, how much do you know about the four-nation confrontations?"
"Not much," Luo Shu shook her head. Her main reason for joining the competition was to reunite with Hanmo.
"Among the four countries, our Tianchi Country is the weakest. In the other countries, it’s even possible to encounter Mahayana Realm competitors, so you must prepare yourself mentally for what’s to come," Mo Qingli said, her face showing a hint of expectation. Tianchi Country had never captured first place in the competition. Seeing Luo Shu, she felt a glimmer of hope, hoping that Luo Shu could continue to exhibit her monstrous talent as she had this time.
