Old Celestial Master's Revenge

Apart from Wang Ergou, a junior member of the Lu Family, the other two people he was competing against were strangers (two Passerby A).

Looking at the match schedule, Wu Tong's lips curled into a playful smile.

Wow, I never expected that all the people who came from their Dimensional Chat Group would be taken advantage of on the very first day.

And so many people were all scheduled to fight in the same match.

Isn't this just too much of a coincidence?

If there's nothing fishy going on here, Wu Tong would swear he'd go Live Stream tonight and destroy an electric fan.

"It seems that this is the Old Celestial Master's little revenge. Although he said he didn't mind, he was still a little unhappy inside."

Haha, it doesn't matter, it's just a small trouble, consider it an apology.

But the Old Celestial Master and the others were really willing to let Wang Ergou fight Xiao Yan. Weren't they afraid he'd be beaten so badly he'd lose his confidence? Or did they have some other source of confidence?

This isn't Wu Tong judging others by his own petty standards; rather, the Old Celestial Master had already done something similar in the original storyline.

He hires thugs to help him fight (Wang Ye), poisons his apprentice (Zhang Lingyu), and secretly manipulates the opponents in the competition...

It could be said that they've resorted to any means necessary to make Zhang Chulan win.

Now, seeing such a coincidence again, Wu Tong naturally immediately thought of the Old Celestial Master.

After all, he has a criminal record.

But... is this all the little trouble you've got?

Isn't this a bit too small?

This doesn't seem quite like the work of the Old Celestial Master.

Shouldn't he have arranged some more obstacles for us?

Or is this old man still holding back some trump card?

"Brother Tong, you're here so early."

A loud voice came from behind, interrupting Wu Tong's thoughts.

Wu Tong turned his head and saw Zhang Chulan, Xiao Yan, Xiao Xun'er, and Zhang Lingyu.

Zhang Lingyu and Zhang Chulan stood together. One was dressed in a Daoist robe, ethereal and untouched by worldly dust, while the other was dressed casually, surrounded by the aura of the mortal world.

Combined with the power they wield, Zhang Chulan, who lives a life of worldly companionship, controls pure Yang Lightning, while Zhang Lingyu, ethereal and otherworldly, uses turbid Yin Lightning.

From this perspective, there is a kind of aesthetic beauty in the relationship between the two, like the interplay of Yin and Yang, where they complement and restrain each other.

Beside him, Xiao Yan, with Xiao Xun'er holding his hand, came along with the two of them, waving and greeting Wu Tong with a big smile.

"It's alright. I didn't plan to come this early, but while I was strolling around the back mountain, I ran into a guy who was bothering me. After dealing with him, I came straight here."

Someone who's getting on my nerves?

Are there really people this brave?

Is it Quanxing?

Zhang Chulan and Zhang Lingyu exchanged a glance, and then Zhang Chulan spoke first, asking, "Brother Tong, is it Quanxing? Why have these bastards shown up so quickly?"

Zhang Lingyu then asked, "If the Quanxing launches an attack ahead of time, do we need to prepare in advance?"

Wu Tong shook his head. "It's not Quanxing, it's that Hu Jie, Shen Chong's borrower."

"Besides, I've already taken care of this guy, so there's no need to worry too much."

Upon hearing Hu Jie's name, Zhang Chulan breathed a sigh of relief.

So it was Hu Jie. That makes no surprise. People blinded by loan sharks are capable of anything.

However, Hu Jie is quite a character. In the original story, he offended the Northeast Immortal Families, and now he has offended Wu Tong.

Is this a plan to only play high-level matches?

But can you compete in high-level matches?

Now look what happened! They've been beaten to death.

"So it's Hu Jie? I thought it was that big shot from Quanxing who dared to make a move on you."

I didn't expect it to be him. In that case, let it go. Hu Jie alone shouldn't be enough to alert him.

Wu Tong nodded, quite agreeing, and said, "Indeed, Hu Jie was already close to being insane when he came to me just now."

Shen Chong released him, probably to use him as a pawn to distract Mount Longhu, so as not to alert the enemy.

Don't be too nervous, just follow the original plan.

Hearing their words, Zhang Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief and deleted the message he was about to send to the Old Celestial Master.

"By the way, Real Person Lingyu, when is your competition?"

After finishing Hu Jie's topic, Wu Tong turned his gaze to Zhang Lingyu, who was standing to the side, and asked her with some curiosity.

Upon hearing Wu Tong's words, Zhang Lingyu quickly replied, "Mister Wu Tong, you're too kind. Just call me Lingyu."

My match is in the afternoon, the second match at Arena D.

"The second match? That's quite a coincidence. I'll have time to watch your game."

Let me see your opponent... Zhuge Qing.

Puff...

Wang Zhenqiu? And... Xiao Zizai?

"Wait, what's going on? When did they arrive?"

When I saw Zhuge Qing, I wasn't that surprised, after all, Zhuge Qing was no match for Zhang Lingyu now.

However, when Wu Tong saw Xiao Zizai and Wang Zhenqiu's names, he was so shocked that he spat out his words.

When did these two guys arrive?

If Xiao Zizai were here, that would be normal. In the original story, he had indeed been to Mount Longhu, but his purpose at that time was simply to cleanse the Quanxing and have a good meal.

Now that they've registered, it's probably a requirement from the government and the company, so it's not surprising.

But why is that scoundrel on the roster?

Isn't this guy Temporary Worker from the southwest region? How did he suddenly end up here?

What is the company doing?

Or is it...?

Is this the trump card that the Old Celestial Master prepared?

Thinking of this, Wu Tong narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Brother Xiao? Qiu'er?"

Upon hearing these two names, Xiao Yan and Zhang Chulan were startled and quickly leaned closer.

"Holy crap, it really is Wang Zhenqiu, the scourge of the Southwest, and Xiao Zizai both Buddha and demon?"

"No, no, no... wait a minute? If Wang Zhenqiu's age is acceptable, then Xiao Zizai's age is definitely over the limit for the Grand Rite of Luo Tian, isn't it?"

How did he even get to sign up for the competition?

Xiao Yan suddenly grasped the key point.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingyu's lips twitched, as if she wanted to say something, but after moving her lips for a long time, she ultimately couldn't say anything.

However, Wu Tong still noticed this little movement and immediately understood what was going on.

It seems this really is the Old Celestial Master's trump card.

So, Wu Tong rolled her eyes and immediately said:

"Hehe, what else could it be? It must have been done by our beloved Old Celestial Master. With his abilities, it's only natural for him to infiltrate a few people."
