670 Going out for a Meeting the Day After Tomorrow, Requesting Leave of Absence in Advance (2/2)
——
At the same time, the ancient Earth Immortals were also discussing about the Jindan Stage fight challenge.
”Looks like Wang Lu's acrobatics are over.” The Earth Immortal Bai Ze held tactics written in Wang Lu's hand and sneered. ”He has exhausted his limited abilities.”
Before his words fell, a huge and fat Earth Immortal couldn't help but laugh and say, ”Bai Ze, you mean to say the exact opposite right? He has just won five straight matches, so he has the momentum behind me, but on the contrary, we are the one that has exhausted our abilities!”
With that, he conjured up a steaming hot roasted pig leg and took a big bite, with a bold and unconstrained eating manner. Who else but the Food Immortal?
”Humph, dead fatty, you still have the face to talk to me? So far, you lost all the matches that you played, you've lost all of our faces as Earth Immortal!”
While he was still munching, the Food Immortal sneered and then retorted, ”If you want to talk about losing face, when you were in the warm-up match, you were fooled like an idiot by that kid Wang Lu, that's more than just losing face!”
”Enough, stop arguing!”
A woman appeared in time to stop the quarrel. Hearing her words, the Food Immortal and Bai Ze immediately stopped.
Because the speaker was Xuan Mo, the initiator of this assembly.
Xuan Mo said, ”Bai Ze is right, Wang Lu's challenge letter shows that he is out of tricks already. As a matter of fact, the so-called five consecutive victories is not worthy of such a big fanfare. Compared with the prior more than twenty consecutive defeats of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals, the five consecutive victories are not worth mentioning at all. Right now, the enthusiasm in the City of Immortals is entirely instigated by Wang Lu, but if he really has enough cards up his sleeves, he could increase the number of consecutive victories. After five consecutive victories, he personally sent a challenge letter, which only shows that he has no confidence to continue to win.”
With that, Xuan Mo looked at her companions. Everyone had different expressions. Most people believed her explanation, but a few people had some doubts, such as the Food Immortal. While munching on the pork leg, his face was filled with doubt.
Thereupon, Xuan Mo further explained, ”Among those five victories, the Patriarch of Giant Tree School prevailed over Chen Geng because when Chen Geng saw Wang Lu entering the venue, he went into a trance missed the chance to win, which was an accidental mistake. In the other four matches, Wang Lu relied on the strength of the outer path, not on the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals' own ability. Those foreign cultivators are indeed good, but they are, after all, only a few, and had basically gone on the stage. Except for them, Wang Lu simply couldn't find more ways to win, so he tries to issue the challenge today, to try to gain morale advantage on the base of the previous five consecutive victories, and win this crucial Jindan Stage Fight Challenge. Imagine if he really has confidence with his own team, how could he try so hard to build this momentum?”
After hearing this, the Food Immortal nodded. ”Very well, what you said just now do make sense.”
With that, he bit a few more meat from the leg and then lightly asked, ”But on the other hand, if you really have the confidence that we will win this Jindan Stage Fight Challenge, why would you call us to gather here? During the previous few months of the competition, our participation followed the schedule given by the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals. We seldom meet each other because there was no need to say anything anymore, let alone to explain so much just for these five winning streaks.”
Upon hearing this, Xuan Mo's eyes turned sharp. ”Bai Ling, what are you trying to say?”
As he licked his greasy fingers, the Food Immortal lightly said, ”Maybe it's because I lost too much that sometimes it's hard to avoid thinking too much. For example, I'm thinking that if I was not so confidence that day when I went to Human Five Area to participate in the food tasting competition, if I could have a little bit more attention and focus before the match, be a little more careful… how could I lose?”
”The same principle applies to all of you. It's just that you were lucky enough to not meet Wang Lu. And this time, Wang Lu took the initiative to challenge us, which shows that he has the assurance that he would win. But here we are saying that he has lost his tricks, that's an even more foolish than I was before.” Food Immortal shook his head. ”Let's not talk about anything else, if in this Jindan Stage Fight Challenge the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals gives out the line up the likes of Wang Wu, Barbarian Girl, and the Witch Doctor, just these three people are enough to give their side the victory. I don't see any chance for us to win.”
With that, all the other Earth Immortals went silent. Because they have seen with their own eyes the performance of You Jiu of Song and With Doctor A Wu… In Jindan Stage, these two people basically had the same power level as that of Wang Wu. They were the outstanding cultivators of the outside path. In the strength limiting situation, even the Earth Immortals could hardly win.
At that moment however, a voice came in.
”If Wang Lu really put them in the lineup, we'll definitely win this battle.”
The speaker was clad in black. He called himself a sinner, and he was the true leader of this group of Earth Immortals!
