It was only an encirclement and not an attack. However, this was worse than an attack. They were surrounded by dozens of different Dharma artifacts, glowing and exuding a sharp aura, as if they would explode at the slightest touch.
It was as if there was a knife hanging behind their necks that they didn't know when it would come down on them. This made the two cultivators, one tall and one short, go crazy. If they didn't know the specific effects of the Dharmic treasures, they might have given it a try. However, Wang Baole had described the effects in too much detail. As such, when they saw the Dharmic treasures floating around them, they immediately recalled their effects and the consequences of touching them.
This made them uncontrollably nervous. Amidst their trepidation, they were incomparably indignant and regretful. They felt that they had been tricked. They shouldn't have trapped Lu Zihao, but the helper from the Dharmic Armament Pavilion instead.
"I know that Lu Zihao. He has always been scheming. He must have done it on purpose when he yelled and rushed over. He wanted to attract our attention so that we could trap him. We fell into his trap!"
The two of them looked at each other and turned to glare at Lu Zihao, who was still punching and kicking in the storm, unaware of what was happening in the outside world and trying to break out of the seal.
"This bastard is too cunning. He's still pretending!" The Combat Pavilion contestant gritted his teeth and cursed. He had no choice but to give up the competition. Following their surrender, the crowd on Upper Academy Island was also shocked by the Dharma artifacts Wang Baole had taken out. They gasped incessantly and were in an uproar.
"It's changed. It's a soft advertisement this time!"
"I've seen people shout out their moves and the names of their Dharma artifacts during a fight. However, I've never seen such a detailed introduction …"
There were tens of thousands of people on Upper Academy Island. They thought that Wang Baole would stop after being warned. However, they didn't expect him to advertise … and everyone could see his advertisement, but they couldn't say anything about it.
He didn't do it deliberately like before, but just shouted it out before he attacked. This matter was ambiguous. It could be said that he had this habit, or that he did it out of love for his fellow disciples, so he reminded them before he attacked. In fact, Wang Baole wasn't the only one who did this. Others more or less did something similar, but no one was as obvious as him, setting off fireworks before they attacked …
As for the people in the spectator stands, they didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Wang Baole's behavior. General Zhou from the military laughed loudly and looked at Wang Baole with great interest.
Beside him, Zhou Lu saw that Wang Baole had successfully attracted General Zhou's interest. At the same time, she felt excited, and at the same time, a smug smile appeared on her face, thinking that she was about to succeed in her revenge.
"Hmph, Wang Baole, I, Zhou Lu, am not someone who uses my power to avenge private grudges. Indeed, no one is more suitable for that mission than you!"
The elders from Ethereal Dao College also had playful looks on their faces. The red-robed middle-aged man sighed and turned his head to look at the Combat Pavilion elder, who had a dark expression on his face. He coughed dryly and spoke for the first time.
"Wang Baole, don't set off any more fireworks!"
This voice carried a suppressive force that spread throughout the battlefield, causing everyone in the Combat Pavilion Tournament to be shocked. In this short period of time, they had already heard Wang Baole's name twice.
As for Wang Baole, he was very satisfied at this moment. Even if he was called out again, he had no regrets. He had already introduced all the Dharma artifacts that he was going to sell. At this moment, he was in a good mood. Seeing that the tall and short cultivator had admitted defeat, he raised his right hand and waved it. Immediately, all the Dharma artifacts flew towards him.
From afar, this scene was very shocking. In an instant, dozens of Dharma artifacts surrounded Wang Baole, causing Wang Baole to be illuminated by the glow of the artifacts. This scene left a deep impression on the tens of thousands of people outside the Upper Academy Island.
It was also at this moment that Lu Zihao finally broke through the seal with a loud bang. His entire body rushed out, and he was still shouting loudly.
"Come and fight me!" As he spoke, his aura surged, and the Flying Frost Swords around him emanated a cold aura. However, after taking a few steps forward, Lu Zihao was stunned. He stared blankly at the two competitors who were glaring at him, and then at the Dharma artifacts surrounding Wang Baole. When he understood what was going on, his body began to tremble, and his eyes grew even redder.
"Wang Baole!" Lu Zihao roared angrily. "Didn't you say you weren't going to fight? You're stealing my limelight again!"
Wang Baole glared at him and was about to say something when the tall and short cultivator gave a cold harrumph.
The two of them glared angrily at Lu Zihao, then turned to face Wang Baole, clasped hands, and bowed. "Lu Zihao, stop pretending! You're acting like it's real!"
"Elder Brother Wang Baole, right? We're completely convinced of the outcome of today's battle!" By now, the two of them had calmed down. When they thought back to how Wang Baole had fought earlier, they couldn't help but sigh. They knew that Wang Baole hadn't made things difficult for them. Each and every one of those Dharma artifacts was astonishing. The Spell Formation Pavilion disciple, after clasping hands, couldn't help but ask,
"Elder Brother Baole, are you going to sell those Dharma artifacts you just used?"
"Of course!" Wang Baole's eyes glittered, and he hurried forward to exchange transmission numbers with the two of them. Smiling, he gave them a discount. It didn't take long for the two of them to become familiar with each other. Wang Baole even sent them off a few steps, then waved goodbye.
This scene caused Lu Zihao's head to feel like it was about to explode. Feeling wronged and frustrated, he let out another roar.
"Wang Baole, you …."
"Of the five Flying Frost Swords you have, I'll give you two!" Wang Baole waved his hand and said grandly. Given Lu Zihao's personality, Wang Baole knew that he shouldn't lower himself to the level of a child. A few candies would solve the problem.
"I … I, Lu Zihao, am a man of principle!" Lu Zihao glared. At this moment, his aura uncontrollably weakened significantly. However, his expression became even angrier.
"I'll give them all to you!" Wang Baole's eyebrows shot up.
Lu Zihao took a deep breath. Since this had already happened, it was useless for him to say anything more. Moreover, there were only four matches that the assistants could help in. There was only one last match left. After it ended, regardless of whether it was the final battle on the mountain peak or the second stage of the competition, he wouldn't be able to see Wang Baole again.
Most importantly, his principles had been tested. He wasn't swayed by Wang Baole's sugar-coated bullets. After these thoughts flashed through Lu Zihao's mind, he felt that his anger had dissipated. He wanted to snort, but when he remembered Wang Baole's reminder, he snorted in his heart. With a darkened face, he sped towards the fourth meeting point.
The fourth rendezvous point would be the final battle where the support would participate!
Here, they would compete for the position of the strongest person on each of the four sides of the mountain peak. Only these four people would be able to step onto the mountain peak and compete for the position of the only person on the mountain peak. From there, they would enter the second stage of the Combat Pavilion Tournament.
Generally speaking, there were no weaklings among the people who could make it to the fourth meeting point. Even Lu Zihao was slowly calming down and concentrating on the task at hand.
At the same time, purely from the role of the assistants, Wang Baole was already very reliable. He had performed almost perfectly, so Lu Zihao hadn't expended much energy in the first three matches. Therefore, he was at his peak in terms of both physical strength and resources.
Just like that, with Lu Zihao clearly unwilling to pay attention to them, they gradually arrived at the fourth meeting point, which was the area near the top of the mountain. As the two paths converged, they could see a screen of light at the end of the path, and the path behind the screen of light led directly to the top of the mountain.
Wang Baole was in a good mood, so he didn't lower himself to Lu Zihao's level. He felt that he had completed his mission, so he was very relaxed. In his mind, he was looking forward to the scene of him finishing his work as an assistant and going back.
"This time, I should be able to make a lot of money. It should be enough to support my research and cultivation." Wang Baole's body and mind were elated. It was a wonderful feeling. He started humming a tune and walked forward with his hands behind his back. Lu Zihao, who was in front of him, suddenly stopped in his tracks as they neared the meeting point.
It was as if all the hair on his body stood on end at this moment. Lu Zihao's breathing suddenly quickened, and his heart raced. There was a strong sense of solemnity in his eyes as he looked at the two people at the fourth meeting point!
"Wang Baole, you … you have to help me this time …" Lu Zihao took a deep breath and said in a low voice. When his voice reached Wang Baole's ears, Wang Baole was surprised. As he approached, he saw the two people at the meeting point.
One of them was sitting cross-legged in meditation, while the other was standing beside him like a guard!
The guard was wearing purple armor. His long hair fluttered in the wind, and his body was extraordinarily burly. He stood there like a small mountain, and the aura he exuded was at the peak of the first level of the True Breath realm. It seemed like he could break through at any time!
Looking at him was like looking at a ferocious beast that contained terrifying power. As his gaze swept over, the valiant intent was extremely obvious, like a volcano that was about to erupt!
Compared to him, the young man who was sitting cross-legged and meditating was completely different in terms of aura and the feeling he gave others. He seemed to be calm and indifferent, as if there was not much in the world that could cause waves in his heart.
Even without hair, he was still extraordinarily handsome and looked extremely frail. At that moment, his head was lowered and his eyes were closed, as if he was comprehending something. Around him, there was a gentle wind that seemed to be attracted and circled around him!
This person was the nameless student of the Dao Enlightenment faculty who had gazed at an empty cup and conjured a drop of water out of thin air at the peak of the Dao Enlightenment faculty!
And he was … the only personal disciple of the previous president of the Federation, the current Ethereal Dao College's Grand Supreme Elder!
Even though Wang Baole didn't recognize the bald youth, he slowly stopped in his tracks when he saw him. He finally understood why someone as arrogant as Lu Zihao had requested for his help. It was because … the burly bodyguard didn't pose much of a threat, but the youth sitting cross-legged in meditation exuded an oppressive aura. It was as if an invisible blade was floating between Wang Baole's eyebrows.
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and stopped smiling. He stopped being relaxed, and his eyes suddenly lit up!
