True Person HeHe's Peerless Fortune
Shi Tiesheng: "Junior Brother Li Fu, be careful."
Upon seeing Shi Tiesheng's words, Li Fu felt a warmth in his heart. Indeed, his senior brother Shi was a true gentleman...
Zhong Feiyu: "Fellow disciples, please be careful when facing the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect! I don't know what poison is yet, so I don't know how to defend against it... Senior Brother Li Fu, I hope you can show your true self and amaze countless people."
Li Fu: "..."
At this moment, Li Fu felt a mix of emotions, including helplessness and frustration.
Why does it feel like everyone thinks I'm doomed to lose?
He felt sad and helpless.
Back in the Purple Mansion Holy Land, Li Fu considered himself a prodigy, second only to a few, but above millions.
But now, he realizes he's really nothing...
Not only was he no match for the Holy Son and Saintess of the major holy lands, but even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator from a second-rate sect was giving him a headache.
He stopped replying.
The Sect Channel remained lively.
Many disciples far away in the Purple Mansion Holy Land also joined in, speculating about what kind of poison the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect used this time, and why it was so terrifying.
but...
The Saintess Squad did not participate.
Qi Saintess spoke softly, "We should prepare in advance."
"Indeed..."
The others nodded in agreement.
Everyone understands this principle: the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect have performed far too extravagantly this time, and their numbers will be reduced by half with each round of the competition!
If the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect continue to be so powerful, and another two or three rounds pass, it will be difficult for anyone to avoid encountering them.
"Currently, among all the prodigies, the one with the highest cultivation level is only at the Void Refinement stage," Fan Jianqiang muttered to himself. "Doesn't that mean that having that poison makes one invincible?"
"Prevention is better than cure."
Qi Saintess said softly, "When the fight starts later, everyone should pay a little attention to Li Fu. They should be able to see some clues."
"Of course it is possible."
While selling medicine, Dan the Fatty said, "I also have quite a bit of experience with poisons. Although some poisons are extremely potent, it's impossible not to detect them. I'll keep an eye out for them later."
"Um."
Qi Saintess nodded, then said, "Looking at the list, your opponents this round vary in strength, but no one will be leaving this round, so even 'Fellow Daoist Lin Fan Fan' can't easily make a move..."
"Let's all do our best."
"Your Highness, rest assured."
They all knew it in their hearts.
Everyone knows who they can fight and who they should just give up on.
If it were the wave in the morning, ' Lin Fan ' could have pulled off a sneak attack.
But there was really nothing we could do in the afternoon.
Especially now that Ji Chutong has revealed all of this, who would give Lin Fan a chance?
They will never leave the 'gymnasium'!
It's impossible to let ' Lin Fan ' make a move right under Huo Yuan's nose and the many guards of the Three Saints City, right?
That's simply impossible...
Lin Fan received a bye in this round of competition!
When the list was announced in the afternoon, countless people gasped in disbelief...
"This kid got a bye again?!"
"He's had three shifts empty by now, hasn't he?!"
"This is unbelievable! The total number of participants is odd, so one person is bound to miss out, which I can understand, but why is it always him?"
"This kid's no good, could he have cheated?!"
"First, he helped others cheat to win, but in reality, he was also cheating?"
"Speaking of which, this lottery was conducted by a Celestial Platform Expert the Three Saints City, how could he cheat? Could it be... ouch!!! Could he be the city lord's illegitimate son?"
"... Silence! Do you want to die? You dare to slander the city lord? At most, he's just the illegitimate son of that Celestial Platform Expert expert..."
"You two idiots, I'd better stay away from you to avoid getting caught in the crossfire! You dare not slander the city lord, but you think you can slander the Celestial Platform Expert at will?"
"..."
In the stands.
Huo Yuan also looked surprised and his mouth twitched.
Even he was starting to have doubts... Could it be that this kid named Lin Fan is actually his illegitimate son or something?!
But the thought was fleeting.
Because it's impossible!
Even if he really is an illegitimate child, his subordinates would not allow him to skip three out of four rounds if they wanted to help him!
Why not just assign a weak opponent and guarantee victory?
By failing to get a bye three times in a row, isn't that just a blatant attempt to attract attention? Who would be that stupid?
So here's the question.
It wasn't that his subordinates 'cheated' and deliberately gave him a bye; in other words, Lin Fan genuinely received a bye in a fair draw!
"This kid is quite interesting."
"Unparalleled luck!"
"However, being able to obtain a large number of Spirit Stone from an ancient tomb and learn that extraordinary lightning control technique certainly indicates that one's luck is not weak."
"Even so, I never expected that his luck would be able to overwhelm all the geniuses, and to crush them again and again."
"This child is far too extraordinary. If it were him..."
At that moment, Huo Yuan's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything more.
Meanwhile, on the stands, many well-known and hidden bigwigs narrowed their eyes, shocked by ' Lin Fan's' good fortune.
Cheating?
It's one thing to think about something like this, but unless ' Lin Fan ' is the city lord's illegitimate son, who would dare to cheat like this?
That's way too obvious!
Instead of cheating, it proves that ' Lin Fan ' has unparalleled luck, even surpassing the Holy Son and Saintess of all the holy lands.
Otherwise, it's impossible for him to get a turn every time.
After all, luck is, to some extent, just fortune!
Always getting a bye and advancing directly—what else could that be but luck?!
Logically speaking, in such a place where geniuses gather, the bye should be given to those geniuses with amazing luck in turn.
But the result was...
This thing, however, has three out of four consecutive rounds...
Doesn't this prove that his luck has completely overwhelmed everyone present?!
And the most astonishing thing is!!!
Qi Zixiao Qi Saintess, has two Merit Golden Ring behind her head!
Even she got crushed?!
This is...
Hiss!!!!
At this moment, who wouldn't think highly of Lin Fan?!
Putting aside the fact that he was defeated, his sheer luck alone was already 'invincible'! Even Qi Zixiao, who had two Merit Golden Ring, was crushed...
Wouldn't such a person have good luck wherever they go, break through with a sneeze, or stumble upon Spiritual Crystal while tripping and falling?!
A Rogue Cultivator, possessing such good fortune...
If we were to take him under our wing...
At this moment, many people had their own ideas.
Even Sword Seventeen's gaze lingered on Lin Fan, unwilling to look away for a long time...
"Such a promising talent, if only he could become my disciple..."
"Um..."
I'm tempted.
Who wouldn't be tempted by this?
Putting everything else aside, just the sheer good fortune of getting involved with him, especially since he's one of their own, like a master or something, has only brought them more good luck.
Even just having some soup is considered a huge profit!
Qi Zixiao had no idea how many people had already set their sights on ' Lin Fan '. As for her, was it a bye?
A bye is the right thing to do!
Do you really think our two Merit Golden Ring are just for show?
Meanwhile, the opponent he encountered in his avatar had also become slightly stronger, Spirit Severance Peak...
However, judging from the other party's expression, they definitely wouldn't dare to fight.
A Nascent Spirit Severance Peak cultivator from the First-Rate Sect, versus Saintess from the Purple Mansion Holy Land, whose cultivation is at the Void Refining Late Stage...
You, a prodigy, can challenge those above your level?
No matter how proud you are, can you be more proud than that Saintess?
In other words...
In the afternoon's battle, both Qi Zixiao's true form and his avatar could leisurely watch the show.
Soon, the time came.
As Qi Zixiao expected, the opponent she had transformed into immediately chose to forfeit, and the 'two' directly advanced to the next round.
At this moment, her attention was mainly focused on Li Fu.
Dan Chengzi did not step onto the arena.
It wasn't that he wanted to admit defeat, but rather that he wanted to watch the duel between Li Fu and that Ten Thousand Poisons Sect cultivator. Anyway, there was a stick of incense's time, and as long as Dan the Fatty didn't drag it out until after a stick of incense had burned, he wouldn't lose his qualification.
Before going on stage.
Li Fu then held a longsword forged from the single horn on the head of the Poisonous Flood Dragon, ready for battle, and even swallowed more than a dozen kinds of antidote pills...
This is not a foul.
There's no reason why you can poison someone and I can't cure them, right?
Even in a life-or-death struggle, the antidote pill can still be used, so there's nothing wrong with it, and it won't affect fairness.
"Come up and lie down."
The Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect had already stepped onto the arena, his face full of pride and disdain. He pointed at Li Fu, then at the ground beneath his feet. "Don't waste your time."
"Arrogant."
Li Fu snorted coldly, his pores instantly closing, and he even shut down his senses, holding his breath and pressing his mouth and tongue tightly shut...
How can one defeat someone who uses poison?!
Naturally, the priority is to avoid getting poisoned!
The poisons of cultivators are far more potent than those of mortals, and they don't necessarily need to be ingested, inhaled, or even come into contact with!
Whether it's pores or the five senses, they can all be a medium for poisoning.
Therefore, Li Fu's series of actions were quite remarkable, and the Purple Mansion Disciple who hadn't yet stepped onto the arena all nodded slightly in approval...
Qi Zixiao couldn't help but whisper, "In that case, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"
"If even this can cause poisoning, then the poison from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect is indeed far too extreme..."
However, Li Fu's preparations went beyond that.
"Snort!"
He snorted coldly, and the Unicorn Sword in his hand vibrated, instantly releasing a cloud of purple poisonous mist...
This was one of the Poisonous Flood Dragon's Innate Divine Power; the poisonous mist hidden within its horn was its most terrifying poison!
"Fighting poison with poison?"
Dan the Fatty muttered, "It seems Li Fu has put in some effort. He has mastered the poison of the unicorn and sealed off all the mediums that could cause him to be poisoned. He shouldn't be defeated this time."
However, Dan the Fatty finished speaking when...
But then they saw that the cultivator from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect on the arena still smiled disdainfully.
How could that be?
Dan the Fatty, immediately frowned, sensing something was wrong.
