Chapter 77 Deng Youfu vs. Lu Xiaobai!
At this moment, Zhang Chulan stood there dumbfounded, looking at the Minister of Magic's face that was full of "life is meaningless" and then at Lu Linglong's angry eyes that were almost spitting fire, as if she was about to pounce on him and bite him. A chill instantly ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head!
"Uh, hehe————"
Zhang Chulan chuckled twice, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
This atmosphere feels even more frightening than facing Zhang Lingyu!
He quickly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, forcing a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Um—we didn't see anything!"
"Really! You guys continue! Continue!" he said, while carefully backing away, trying to create a safe distance.
His feigned ignorance and obvious attempt to cover up his mistake only fueled Lu Linglong's anger!
Lu Linglong's pink hair trembled slightly with anger, her teeth grinding together, wishing that her next opponent would be this shameless Zhang Chulan right in front of her!
Let's beat him up first to vent our anger!
At this moment, the Minister of Magic just wants to escape this place that is causing him social death!
He suppressed his shame and, taking advantage of Lu Linglong's anger being temporarily drawn to Zhang Chulan, almost instinctively grabbed Lu Linglong's wrist, and with all his strength, head down, he charged towards the competition stage!
He felt his face was so hot he could fry an egg on it, and only one thought was running through his mind:
Run! Run now! Get as far away from here as possible!
Lu Linglong stumbled as he pulled her, her anger interrupted by the sudden tug, leaving her with no choice but to passively follow him.
The two rushed forward headfirst, passing through the edge of the noisy crowd, and turned into a relatively quiet forest path.
The path was shaded by dense trees, isolating most of the noise.
As they ran, the Minister of Magic's extremely tense nerves seemed to finally be soothed a little by the quiet environment.
He unconsciously slowed down, his grip on Lu Linglong's wrist loosened, and he finally adopted a posture of walking slowly with his head down.
His rapid breathing was particularly clear in the quiet forest, and he still dared not look up at Lu Linglong.
Looking at the figure in front of her with his head down and his shoulders trembling slightly, Lu Linglong's anger inexplicably subsided by more than half, and instead a complex emotion that was hard to describe welled up inside her.
The scene of social death just now was still vivid in her mind, but at this moment, Lu Xiaobai, who was silent, depressed, and even a little pitiful, made her feel a little sorry for him.
"noob----"
Lu Linglong couldn't help but call out softly, her voice still slightly panting from running.
"Hmm?" The Minister of Magic, who was walking in front, paused, turned his head slightly, and glanced at Lu Linglong out of the corner of his eye.
Although a blush of embarrassment still lingered on her face, her eyes seemed to have barely regained their usual slightly socially awkward timidity.
However, his slightly pursed lips betrayed his inner turmoil.
Looking at the face that was trying so hard to put on an "I'm fine" expression, Lu Linglong opened her mouth, wanting to say something, such as "I'm sorry about earlier," or "Don't mind that idiot."
But when the words were about to come out, seeing his forced composure, she felt that whatever she said would be inappropriate and might only make him more embarrassed.
Finally, she just pursed her lips, swallowed her words, and gently shook her head: "—It's nothing."
The two walked silently to the fork in the road leading to the competition venue.
The Minister of Magic didn't stop, heading straight for the contestants' entrance passage. His back looked hurried, as if he was eager to get rid of everything that had just happened.
Lu Linglong stopped and watched him disappear into the passageway. She sighed softly and turned to walk towards the viewing platform.
Forget it, the competition is the most important thing. We'll talk about the rest later.
Inside the competition venue.
Master Rongshan, who served as the referee for this match, was a burly man with a serious expression, standing in the center of the field.
The contestants who made it to the second day were all outstanding young talents, possessing formidable strength and often delivering more destructive attacks.
Especially for contestants like Lu Xiaobai, whose methods are unpredictable and whose spells are incredibly powerful, it is even more necessary to have an experienced and highly skilled referee like Rong Shan overseeing things to prevent any unexpected incidents.
"Next game!"
Rong Shan's loud voice resounded throughout the entire venue.
"Lu Xiaobai versus Deng Youfu!"
"Both players, please enter the arena immediately! The match is about to begin!"
As Rongshan announced this, the Minister of Magic slowly emerged from the contestant entrance.
The moment he stepped onto the field—
"Ah!!! Lu Xiaobai!!!"
"Look here, Xiaobai!!"
Wow, you're even better looking in person than in the videos!
"Lu Xiaobai, look up, look at me, look at me!!"
In the stands, especially in a certain area near the players' tunnel, a deafening roar of screams and cheers erupted!
Its popularity even surpassed that of the extremely popular Zhuge Qing!
It turns out that after the first day of the competition, Lu Xiaobai's stunning good looks, his unusual magician identity, and his aloof and unapproachable aura caused photos and videos to be instantly uploaded to the internal network for people with supernatural abilities, sparking a lot of discussion!
It's hard for a contestant with such good looks, talent, and unique charisma not to become popular!
In particular, it attracted the attention of a large number of young female supernatural beings, who even spontaneously formed a support group.
Standing in the center of the arena, the Minister of Magic felt a chill run down his spine!
Those ear-piercing screams and cheers, mixed with some bold and explicit declarations of love, felt like countless needles pricking his sensitive nerves!
He felt goosebumps all over his body and wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into!
He was filled with deep regret!
Why did I agree to participate in this competition with the main body and the Minister of Intelligence?!
Lu Linglong, who had just stepped onto the viewing platform, witnessed this entire scene!
Hearing those women shouting Lu Xiaobai's name like they were on steroids, and even catching a few extremely explicit and vulgar words, she was so angry that she almost exploded on the spot!
Her pink hair looked like it was about to stand up and smoke!
She clenched her fists, wishing she could rush over and sew those women's mouths shut right there!
But when she glanced at the dark mass of excited girls—her raging anger instantly deflated like a punctured balloon.
How could she possibly out-argue hundreds of people all by herself?
Lu Linglong could only find a seat and sit down in a huff, her little face tense, like a pink-haired cat with its fur standing on end but helpless.
Inside the venue.
Looking at the scene opposite him and hearing the deafening screams around him, Deng Youfu couldn't help but twitch his lips.
This support group is even more outrageous than Zhuge Qing's group yesterday!
He could even imagine how miserable his fate would be if he accidentally injured the other side, even if it was just a scratch. He would probably be devoured alive by this group of crazy women and chased all over Longhu Mountain, which would be more terrifying than a zombie apocalypse!
"Sigh, I wish I could be this popular too—"
A strange, sour feeling of envy welled up in Deng Youfu's heart.
She is clearly a teacher, very stylish, and has studied in the UK, so why doesn't she receive this treatment?
Just then, a cold and domineering aura suddenly emanated from Deng Youfu's body, causing a large amount of thick, ink-like blackness to surge around him!
A majestic, hoarse voice, with a sinister, serpentine quality, resounded directly in Deng Youfu's mind, filled with utter disdain: "Hmph! Do I really need to personally deal with such a callow brat?"
"Lucky boy, you're utterly useless!"
Deng Youfu pushed up his glasses, as if talking to himself, and replied in a low voice, "Uncle Liu, you mustn't let your guard down."
"His strange cold fire yesterday was incredibly powerful; you would have suffered greatly if you had been exposed to it."
"Hmph! I know! Useless thing!" The being known as "Grandpa Liu" snorted coldly in dissatisfaction.
At the same time, Hu Tianbiao, inside the Minister of Magic, seemed to sense this shared aura as well, and suddenly "opened" his spiritual eye, locking onto Deng Youfu's direction.
"Oh? So it's that old bastard Liu Kunsheng's aura—"
Hu Tianbiao's voice, tinged with amusement and a hint of fighting spirit, echoed in the Minister of Magic's mind.
"Hehe, it seems this competition won't be boring."
Having spent the past few days following the Minister of Magic, Hu Tianbiao has had his eyes opened wide.
Whether it was the heaven-defying spell [Lord of the Mysterious Mist] that shrouded the back mountain yesterday and made him feel uneasy, or the old Celestial Master whose unfathomable strength made his soul feel heavy pressure just by being near him, or even his previous experience of being defeated by Lu Xiaobai—
All of this severely impacted its past arrogant and disdainful attitude.
However, this impact actually caused the bottleneck in its cultivation that had been stagnant for many years to show signs of loosening!
"Senior, would you like to have a match?"
The Minister of Magic suddenly spoke in a low voice, as if talking to himself, "I can offer you assistance."
"Oh?" Fox Tianbiao's voice was filled with obvious surprise and great interest.
"You don't know any shamanic arts—could it be—"
It instantly understood the Minister of Magic's meaning, its voice brimming with excitement: "Hehehe! Then this old man will gladly accept! Perfect, I don't find that old serpent over there very pleasing to the eye either!"
Hu Tianbiao was very curious. How exactly could the Minister of Magic, whose methods were completely different from those of the superhumans in China, use to make it unleash some of its power? Since he dared to say that, he must have something to rely on!
And in that very instant—
A large amount of thick, condensed demonic energy, carrying a powerful spiritual pressure, also began to surge from the Minister of Magic.
Its aura was so powerful that it was in no way inferior to that of Liu Kunsheng on Deng Youfu!
