718 Write a Chapter on Wednesday to Call for the Weekend (1/2)

”... I'm not willing, but I have to give up.”

At the dining table, Liu Li's eyes were red and she was about to cry. Reluctantly, she put down the jade chopsticks in her hand and turned to Wang Lu and then sobbed softly, ”Senior Brother, I'm sorry…”

Wang Lu touched her head, ”Don't say that, you've tried your best. It's not that you're incompetent, but your opponent is too cunning.”

While saying that, Wang Lu looked at Senior Gem Emperor who had turned around to leave.

Senior Gem Emperor was indeed worthy of being Senior Gem Emperor, powerful in any aspect that it was hard to even look at her back. Her first opponent was Supreme Tian Lun, who had won against the so-called number one calculation god in Nine Regions pertaining to calculation. The second was A Wu, the witch doctor, and the third one was… She defeated Liu Li in the food judging match. No matter how much she ate, or how careful she was in identifying the food, she was perfect.

Even the trick Wang Lu used to defeat the Food Immortal before did not work on her. Senior Gem Emperor simply had no flaws.

It was really not the responsibility of Liu Li to lose to such an opponent. It could even be said that it was a kind of cruelty to send Liu Li to such an arena.

If the outcome was likely to be this, then there was no need to make things difficult for Liu Li.

”But…” Hearing the comforting words, Liu Li's expression relaxed a bit, but her beautiful eyebrows were still tangled, which showed that she was still in a bad mood.

”But what?” Wang Lu asked with concern.

”But… I haven't had enough. The match ended because of the difference in scores.” Liu Li flattened her mouth and swallowed her saliva, and then looked back at the kitchen. ”It is said that the last dish to judge is Master Sun Buping's 'Mess.' I saw it in the magazine, and have been looking forward to it for a long time…”

”... It doesn't matter. I told the cook to serve you the dishes from behind.”

Wang Lu sighed and felt relieved. In any case, Liu Li didn't fall into the psychological trauma because of this lost… If she were, he would feel guilty about it.

In the first day's matches, the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals got three consecutive defeats… It was a terrible achievement, but it was also expected. Therefore, the three people sent to participate were all open-minded people who could put the victory or defeat aside. Supreme Tianlun had already calculated his defeat, so it could be considered that he had known his fate; A Wu was eccentric and didn't care about the outcome; Liu Li had a clear mind… When Wang Lu sent out the list, he made full consideration so as not to leave a post-traumatic syndrome after the failure.

Right now, since Liu Li was safe and sound, the first day's matches could be considered a complete success. Wang Lu smiled and turned away.

In contrast to the smiling Wang Lu, millions of spectators inside and outside the stadium were speechless, shocked by the three consecutive defeats in front of them.

After a while, bursts of noises broke the silence. People began to talk about it, and the more they talked about it, the angrier they became, shouting and smashing the equipment. Soon, the golden armored men were notified and rushed to clamp it. The audience was in a turbulent mood and they fought against the golden armored men. The scene was chaotic...

At the same time, there were similar situations in many streets of the City of Immortals. Through the broadcasts of the billboard version, the three consecutive defeats of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals were seen by everyone. Thus, questions, curses, and quarrels… could be heard endlessly.

Of course, all of these had long been expected.

”... It's not bad. The level of unrest is 20% lower than predicted. It seems that they underestimated their level of self-control.”

On top of a dome at the Immortal One Area in the City of Immortals, a Shengjing Sect's Elder gently stroked his beard, looked down at the chaos under his feet, nodded slightly, and the magical power of his true yuan, which was integrated with his primordial spirit, gently swayed. It infiltrated into every corner of Immortal One Area, and controlled the situation—this was certainly the ability of Deity Stage.

”Self-control? I think they underestimated the combat power of golden armored warriors. Unexpectedly, after entering the red alert status, a big stress array appeared in the City of Immortals, which nearly doubles the attributes of all golden armored warriors… This lower than 20% estimated data thing is simply a knife taken out with a sledgehammer.”

Standing next to the old cultivator from Shengjing Sect was a young man who looked like he was in his thirties. The fluctuation of magical power showed that his stage was a high-ranked Jindan. He didn't look handsome and his Shengjing seemed robe looked old, with the elbow's parts were already patched… However, at this moment, standing on the dome meant that his status was not uncommon.

Each area of the City of Immortals was totally enclosed in four directions, but there was actually an open space between areas. And only a few privileged people could pass through these areas. In addition to the senior Elders of the Heavenly Sage Hall, there were also elite cultivators who performed various tasks for the organizing committee.

To be named as elite in the City of Immortals, one must be the cream of the crops, dragons among the snakes, and phoenixes among birds. And the tasks performed were also of great importance.

”However, since it's not higher than the estimated value, we won't be able to take a shot… On the other hand, this is an easy way to earn overtime pay.”

The old cultivator moved his bones and muscles for a while and was already absent-minded. His eyes occasionally glanced at his feet, which was full of contempt.

”A group of fools! They really think that the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals, with so many people in it, could not fight one woman? Idiots!”

The scruffy cultivator beside him had the same opinion.

”Morons, do they really think that victory can be gained by relying on more people? Did they really not see the horror of Senior Gem Emperor in those three matches? Did they think we let her win? If all the people in the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals are as useless as them, even if there are a million of them, there's no use. I'm afraid these three consecutive defeats are just the beginning…”
