Chu Mo's behavior was extremely abnormal.
No matter how low his combat strength was, as the final disciple of the Devourer of Two Clouds, there was no way he would be intimidated by a sparring match between his own kind. The nine great factions would never train their disciples like this, even if they were only outer disciples.
Moreover …
Even if Chu Mo was trash in Lu Qing's eyes, Chu Mo's opponent in the arena would also be trash who would fight Chu Mo to a standstill within 300 rounds.
Everyone was trash, so why was there a need to do this?
Of course, most people present did not have Lu Qing's insight.
Hence, they naturally thought that Chu Mo's behavior was due to a fright.
The sparring that followed, which lasted no more than ten breaths, also confirmed their guess.
This was because after ten breaths, Chu Mo was blasted off the arena by a candlelight that was ten thousand times smaller.
Fortunately, those on the high platform were all people of status, so they did not get up in shock.
However, as they looked at each other in astonishment, they saw a certain degree of shock, speechlessness, and a question in each other's minds.
Could they really help this kind of pig up to the wall?
"H-he didn't lose on purpose, did he?"
"It's very likely. Is the final disciple of a great Hunyuan Immortal Sect Elder at this level? I don't believe it! "
"So he did it for revenge? He pretended to be trash, then publicly stated Elder Mu's wish to take him in as a disciple, and then acknowledged him as his master? "
"Heh, if that's really the case, this kid is too despicable to use such a method to retaliate!"
"If it were up to me, it doesn't seem like it …"
"Doesn't seem like it?"
"In the sparring match just now, this kid's opponent attacked a total of a hundred and thirty-two times. Not only were the moves interlinked, but he also seemed to be able to react to all of these moves, be it in the open or in the dark …"
"If he really could react, and could even react to the hidden moves, how could he have lost so miserably?"
"He only reacted, but he didn't actually show it, as if …"
"As if what?"
"As if … as if he wanted to show it, but was blocked by something?"
…
This was even more unbelievable than the Dragon's Gate Formation, and the powerhouses could not help but frown.
They all furrowed their brows …
Whether it was the spectators or the cultivators below the stage, their reactions were even more intense.
"Holy sh * t, i-is that Chu Mo?"
"T-this is too weak!"
"You're not even comparable to me!"
"And he's Tyranny's Elder's final disciple? Pah!"
"If I had known, I would have challenged him long ago!"
"Ah ah ah, don't mention it, I'm in so much pain! Such a good opportunity was actually given to an outsider, how hateful! "
"The Great Elder will definitely not accept such trash, right?"
"Isn't that obvious? It's simply a disgrace to the Grand Elder!"
…
Seeing this, the big shots frowned even more.
A good opportunity to build momentum had now become a joke. How could they tolerate this?
Therefore, even though Chu Mo's performance was worse than a pig's, they were more determined to help Chu Mo.
"Hmph! Even if it's a pig, I'll let it take first place!"
"We must do this, or else all our previous efforts will be wasted!"
"Sigh, this Chu Mo, he almost ruined our plans …"
"If that's the case, it's going to be troublesome. Controlling a spar is still fine, but in the trial of the Ancient Heavenly Stairway, how will the pig be able to stand out and obtain the one in a million years spot?"
"This …"
"Moreover, don't forget that there's a lord here … Did Lord An Zhi see Chu Mo's performance?"
"Hiss!"
"I don't think so. An existence like Lord is so noble, why would he pay attention to this kind of trash?"
"No matter what, we can't stop the general trend. Let's first deceive this spar!"
…
For the general trend …
Not only did the big shots dare to hope for a fluke in front of Lu Qing, but they had long since defined this spar as a mode where everyone could have at least two chances to spar because of Chu Mo.
Chu Mo, who had sat on the ground for a long time before he recovered, did not know that his life, even if it was just a spar, had been arranged step by step.
He only knew that he had a splitting headache and wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Big, big shot, you're really, really good to me …"
He murmured softly and slowly got up. His face had an unpredictable expression of wanting to cry and wanting to laugh at the same time, causing the surrounding cultivators to look at each other.
Just as Chu Mo was about to walk out of the station …
An unfamiliar cultivator walked towards him and vaguely threw a jade talisman to him.
"Tomorrow, do your best!"
Hearing this, Chu Mo glanced at the jade talisman that was full of words, then turned back to look at the cultivator. His eyes were filled with doubt, he did not understand what the other party was talking about.
However, he deliberately did not think too much about it and quickened his pace.
Just as he returned to the Ancient Stairway Tower …
"Big shot, big … brother, brother!"
Xie Tian looked at Chu Mo's hurried appearance and smiled. "You're so fast, I guess you won beautifully?"
Chu Mo was about to tell him with a bitter smile, but his mind turned and he sat down with a sigh. "Thank you for your help, brother …"
"I'm ashamed, I didn't do anything …"
"I lost so badly that even my mother doesn't want to recognize me."
"Huh?" Xie Tian was stunned. After a long time, he carefully asked, "Is the spar not limited to cultivation?"
Chu Mo shook his head.
"Could it be that your opponent is a Heaven's Equal State almighty?"
Chu Mo shook his head again.
"Could it be …"
"I'll let you know, brother." Chu Mo said seriously, "My opponent's cultivation is similar to mine. In terms of talent, he's not even as good as me, and …"
"And what?"
"Moreover, I feel that I should have been able to win."
"Then why …"
"The reason I lost," Chu Mo sighed, "is all because of you."
Xie Tian felt a little guilty. "I don't quite understand what you mean."
Chu Mo smiled bitterly. "Brother, you taught me so many fighting techniques, but I was completely dumbfounded. I don't know how to fight at all!"
"Pfft!"
Lu Qing, who was eavesdropping, spat again.
After that, he was speechless.
"They're all top quality …"
One wanted to get pointers from the other, so he spared no effort to talk about most of his fighting experience.
The other, because he was suddenly attacked by a chatterbox, he forgot his own fighting experience and lost miserably.
Not to mention him …
Even Xie Tian was dumbfounded after hearing this.
But soon, he realized that no matter whether he was right or wrong, it had led to a very serious matter.
"Then does that mean you won't have the right to participate in the sparring, and won't be able to fulfill your wish?"
"Fortunately, everyone has two chances in this sparring. Unless you lose both times, you will be eliminated."
Xie Tian heaved a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, you still have one chance. As long as you forget what I said, you can definitely …"
"Wait!" Chu Mo panicked. "Brother, you can't just stand by and watch. Although I don't blame you, who can predict who my opponent will be? What if it's a Heaven's Equal realm cultivator? "
"Admit defeat."
"… Boss, I think I can still fight!"
"Then … I'll pray for you, sincerely."
Seeing Xie Tian's serious expression, Chu Mo almost cried.
"Boss, you must help me this time, or else, or else I'll rely on you for the rest of my life!"
"But I don't know who your next opponent will be."
Hearing this, Chu Mo's mind flashed!
"I know!"
"Who?"
