608 Major Event In Life (1/2)
Objectively speaking, Wang Lu's victory was really based on luck.
A Jindan fighting a Yuanying, especially a well-known monster Yuanying in Nine Regions, was really a suicide. Not to mention that Wang Lu was still in the preliminary Peak Jindan Stage, even if he advanced his various methods, techniques, and skills that he became a true Peak Jindan Stage, it would still be a fantasy to defeat Zhou Ming on the same Stage.
The reason for his victory was that, one, Zhou Ming was being lenient, not treating this as important as a life and death fight. Two, Wang Lu correctly executed his respond, cleverly letting Zhou Ming consumed Zhou Ming's acute spirit at the first stage of the fight. Three, Aya's accidental appearance had caused Wang Lu to have a second wind.
In addition, there was a bit of luck.
If his predictions on the first few moves were wrong even once, if the primal chaos sky stealing sword was not accurate… the outcome of this fight would've been very different. The strength disparity was truly obvious. Except for Wang Wu, this abnormal Jindan, Jindan winning against Yuanying was far-fetched.
However,...
”F*ck yeah, I won anyway! Hahaha!”
When he walked down the arena, Wang Lu's complexion was so radiant. The significance of this victory was simply too great that he could not help but feel jubilant about it.
On the personal level, not only he managed to avoid a humiliating punishment, but he also passed Aya's test.
After the fight, he could clearly see Aya smiling in the crowd, and then gently opened her mouth to say silently to him these words:
”For the sake of this victory, this time I will spare you for lying to me about the poison competition.”
At that time, the huge stone that pressured his heart finally fell to the ground, he no longer had to face the wrath of the Knight King anymore...
On the big picture, the victory of Jindan against Yuanying undoubtedly proved the feasibility of his cross-stage confrontation plan. When the others had to perform this, the resistance would be much smaller.
As a matter of fact, in this cross-stage confrontation, it was really not necessary that junior group should not be able to fight back, not every one of those high Stage cultivators able to smoothly suppress their Stage. For example, some people's core method only shone brilliantly after the cultivator advanced to Yuanying Stage. Thus, suppressing their Stage to Jindan was tantamount to directly eliminate the thing that made them shine. Even though there were still advantages in consciousness, vision, and other aspects, that cultivator might not necessarily win against Jindan Stage cultivator.
Wang Lu's victory was undoubtedly a proclamation of this point: Junior group had the fighting power against the Senior group! This also meant that in the competition against the Earth Immortals in the future, they also had a high chance of winning!
”Therefore, Fourth Uncle, you must not be discouraged. Your sacrifice is very valuable. It would surely become the stepping stone toward the total victory for our Union of Ten Thousand Immortals in the future… Oh, wrong, it's pioneer.”
Zhou Ming just looked at Wang Lu coldly, ”Later on, don't think you can play with Liu Li anymore.”
”Fourth Uncle, don't be so stingy, will you? Moreover, taking your disciple's major event in life as a joke is not good.”
Zhou Ming coldly said, ”A person like you who 'deceive the Master and wipe out the ancestor', being with you Liu Li would not be happy!”
”Hey, with whom would I not be happy?”
While the two were talking, a beautiful young girl jumped out from the stage. Shocked, Zhou Ming continued to take several steps back. ”Why are you here?”
Liu Li tilted her head and said, ”Senior Brother told me to come. He said that he wanted to give Master a pleasant surprise… Master, what do you mean by would not be happy just now?”
Zhou Ming didn't pay attention to Liu Li, but angrily stared at Wang Lu. ”You actually called Liu Li in advance, is this your plan since the beginning?”
Wang Lu said, ”Em, about this, to fight an expert like you, naturally, I have to consider everything in order to have a chance of winning…”
”...” Zhou Ming gnashed his teeth in anger, but he could not justify threatening Wang Lu with Liu Li, especially in front of Liu Li.
”Master, tell me, tell me, why would I not be happy?”
From the side, Liu Li continued to pester him, which caused Zhou Ming a headache.
Fortunately, he didn't have to worry about this problem, an impatient woman voice had come from outside the arena, feeling the mind like a demonic voice.
”Tsk, who lost the fight just now? Quickly come here and report to me. I don't have much time to waste here. If I spend more time with you, this group of stinking barbarian, my life would be shortened by a lot! The loser quickly come here! Don't tell me you want to renege on the agreement? There are so many witnesses here, do you have any shame at all!”
Hearing this, Zhou Ming knew that this was the person from the beauty contest group responsible to bring back the loser. According to Wang Lu's plan, the loser would be directly taken by the people from the beauty contest group and would then be dressed up for public exhibition—of course, this could also be interpreted as a public execution.
