Slacking Off, Transmigrator vs. Transmigrator

Seeing the oppressive and somber atmosphere in the hall, Xiao Ran broke the silence by speaking first:

"Fellow Daoists, in the past few days, a group of mysterious experts have inexplicably appeared and have been frequently challenging us."

What are your thoughts on this?

Besides losing to Ye Liang, Gu Jinghong also suffered two more defeats in a row, leaving him utterly devastated, and a sinister glint appeared in his eyes:

"These people act like they have a grudge against us, the holy sons and daughters, specifically targeting us. It's really too much. Do they really think we're pushovers?"

Should we unite and report this matter to the elders of our respective sects?

"How about we get entry to the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm without having to participate in the arena battles?"

Upon hearing this, many people in the audience had their eyes sparkle, and some were subtly tempted.

"Hmph, shameless indeed." Ye Liang scoffed disdainfully.

"Only someone like you Gu Jinghong, could come up with such a terrible idea."

If your strength is lacking, you should practice more. Besides, the rules of the arena in the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm have been passed down for ten thousand years. How can you change them just because you want to?

A blush crept onto Gu Jinghong's pale face, and she angrily pointed a finger at Ye Liang:

"Ye Liang, don't go too far! I'm making this suggestion for everyone's benefit."

"Once you get defeated on the stage, you won't even get a chance to enter the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm. Let's see what you do then."

Ye Liang glanced at him disdainfully. "I'm not like you. If I lose, I lose. If I'm bad, I'll just practice more."

I lost, but at worst I'll go back and work harder. I'll never be shameless like you, always thinking of Evil Dao.

Lei Xiao loudly echoed, "Well said! They challenged us openly and fairly; if we're not as skilled, we have to accept it."

I've lost two games, but I haven't said anything. I'll just get my revenge next time.

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming tense, Xiao Ran quickly advised:

"The three of you should not let this cause a rift. We have gathered here to discuss how to resolve our current predicament; there is really no need for conflict."

After the three quieted down, he continued:

"These mysterious figures who suddenly appeared are very likely from the Central Continent outside the Eastern Desolation, otherwise their strength would not be so formidable."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingwan echoed, "The Central Continent are a land of outstanding people and abundant resources, far surpassing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and blessed mountains of my Eastern Desolation."

There are many masters and geniuses there; I'm afraid it will be very difficult for us to win."

Lei Xiao frowned as well. "If they really are from the Central Continent, we have no choice but to fight them."

If they resort to underhanded tactics, they'll probably lose all face for the entire Eastern Desolation.

Ye Liang curled his lip, thinking to himself: These people really know how to make connections, bringing up Central Continent out of nowhere. They would never guess that these people actually come from the mortal world.

Nowadays, people in the cultivation Immortal Realm are used to being arrogant and have almost completely separated themselves from the mortal world. They are neither sensitive to nor understand information from the mortal world.

If it weren't for the fortuitous opportunity encounter that led me to the mortal realm, I wouldn't have known that the mortal realm had already undergone earth-shattering changes.

The people present were all frowning in distress; they couldn't win a fight, and they couldn't use any underhanded tactics.

At this moment, Xiao Ran suddenly smiled and said mysteriously:

"Since we can't beat them, then let's not fight. Let them first obtain the qualification to enter the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm, so that those who obtain the qualification will not be able to continue to compete on the arena."

After that, we won't have to face them again, nor will we have to get hurt.

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, even Ye Liang hadn't expected Xiao Ran to propose such a laissez-faire approach.

But upon closer examination, this trick does indeed work.

Seeing the Holy Son and Holy Daughter's attitude, those system hosts probably won't wait long and will directly go to obtain the entry qualification for the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm.

Lei Xiao hesitated, "Wouldn't it seem like we're just slacking off? It would be too embarrassing if word got out."

Xiao Ran smiled slightly, "We can say that we are still recovering from serious injuries, not that we are giving up."

Even if the sect elders question us, we are indeed injured and we didn't lie. Besides, with so many of us sharing the burden, it shouldn't be a serious problem."

Everyone present realized that Xiao Ran had already come up with this plan, but it was a rather unscrupulous one.

As the saying goes, "the law does not punish the masses," which is why he dragged everyone down with him to avoid being the only one held accountable by his own sect elders.

"What methods you use are none of my concern. For me, there is only war. Farewell, everyone." Ye Qingxue stood up and left.

Ye Liang also rose to take his leave. "Fellow Daoists, I shall also take my leave."

Gu Jinghong scoffed sarcastically, "Your Heavenly Revelation Sect is so high and mighty."

No one left Soaring Clouds Hall. The crowd exchanged glances, clearly acquiescing to this solution.

For the next seven days, the holy sons and daughters of the various cultivation sects did not step onto the arena again, citing their unhealed injuries.

Seeing this, the system hosts had no choice but to give up the challenge and go to the arena to compete for the qualification to enter the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm.

Seeing that there was no more excitement to watch, Liu Yi immediately flew onto the arena, releasing the aura of the Divine Acupoint Realm, and asked with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist, do you still wish to fight?"

Sensing Liu Yi's imposing aura, the man's face fell, and he said helplessly, "Senior, there's no need. I concede."

Sensing the aura of the Divine Acupoint Realm emanating from Liu Yi, the crowd below the arena all abandoned their thoughts of challenging him.

Seeing that no one was going on stage, Liu Yi ate some spirit melon seeds while keeping an eye on the competitions around him.

Ten hours passed in the blink of an eye. Just as he was about to finish his day's defense of the arena, a figure suddenly flew onto the stage.

When he saw that the person who came was Chen Jie, his face darkened.

This guy insisted on challenging me just as his reign was about to end; he's just asking for trouble.

That bastard Chen Jie got cocky after his lucky victory against the Spirit Transformation Realm last time, and now he actually dares to challenge me.

Since he won't give me any face, I'll teach him a lesson he won't forget later.

Liu Yi immediately said with a forced smile, "Fellow Daoist Chen, last time you were seriously injured before you defeated the Spirit Transformation Realm."

"You've come to challenge me again this time, so be careful not to get seriously injured again and miss the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie revealed a confident and arrogant smile.

After his last great battle against the Spirit Transformation Realm expert, his invincible body was destroyed and then rebuilt. After recovering, his strength improved once again.

That's why he went up again this time when there was a Spirit Transformation Realm defending the arena, hoping to use the pressure from the opponent to promote his own progress.

"With your Spirit Transformation Realm strength, you still don't have the ability to seriously injure me and make me miss the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm."

I just hope you can hold on a little longer so I can get more experience and challenges.

Chen Jie suddenly flew onto Liu Yi's arena, instantly attracting everyone's attention. Everyone immediately realized that he was about to challenge the Spirit Transformation Realm again.

"Chen Jie has just recovered from his injuries and is already challenging the Spirit Transformation Realm. I wonder if he can replicate his previous achievements this time?"

"Although Chen Jie's combat strength is astonishing, it's really hard to say who will win against a Spirit Transformation Realm."

"Chen Jie is too arrogant. I hope he can learn a lesson."

"Take this! Let me see your Spirit Transformation Realm strength."

Chen Jie Jie's aura suddenly exploded, and he threw a punch with fierce and domineering force, which even caused the air to be compressed and produce a sonic boom.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, be careful!"

Facing Chen Jie's offensive, Liu Yi wore a half-smile and raised his hand to unleash the Blazing Sun Star-Shattering Palm.

The palm strike was like a small Sun, carrying intense heat, meeting the fierce fist force head-on.
