The noise came to an abrupt stop. He intentionally didn't finish his sentence.
However, everybody understood what he meant. He was saying that the Grand Desolate War Institution had tampered with the strength tester. Li Yao's punching strength couldn't have been so stable.
Li Yao narrowed his eyes. His eyes were as sharp as blades as he gazed at the crowd. He asked calmly, "Who is this?"
"I am Xu You, a reporter from 'Magical Equipment World'. I believe that many people have the same question after seeing Mr. Li Yao's amazing performance just now, but I am the one who asked.
"However, I see that the strength tester has been lowered by you. I'm afraid that it will be meaningless to check it now."
A sharp-headed reporter in his thirties stood out from the crowd. He put on a fake smile and drawled his words.
What he meant was that the Grand Desolate War Institution had removed all the tampering on the strength tester in the past few minutes.
Even if there were no problems, it didn't mean that there was no fraud.
This was what they meant by 'if you want to pin a crime on someone, you can always find a pretext'. Xu You had perfected the 'dead tell no tales' tactic.
"'Magical Equipment World'?"
"Xu You?"
The name made Li Yao's heart skip a beat. Sharpness flashed deep inside his eyes. His lips curled into a faint, hideous smile.
He knew who the guy was.
When the Demon Beast Detector was first launched, the three magical equipment magazines all published several positive reviews.
Among them, the reviews of 'Refiners' Home 'and' Flying Sword and Battle Armor ', although they didn't think highly of the Demon Beast Detector, they praised and criticized it from the perspective of Li Yao's identity as a college student and the positioning of the magical equipment.
In other words, they admitted that the Demon Beast Detector had its merits after all.
Only the review of 'Magical Equipment World'. He criticized the Demon Beast Detector to the point that it was covered with cuts and bruises all over.
Li Yao was not a kind person. After reading this article, he was shocked. After reading the review, he burst into fury.
Who dared to slander his beloved magical equipment? How could he let it go so easily?
Yes, the author of the review was Xu You!
Their gazes collided fiercely in midair, and at the same time, they discovered the viciousness in each other's eyes.
When Xu You saw Li Yao's awe-inspiring appearance, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.
Xu You also graduated from Deep Sea University's Refining Department, but he majored in the history of refining and comparative refining.
As soon as he graduated, he started working in Magical Equipment World.
After more than ten years of hard work, he had gradually accumulated a small amount of fame and connections in the circle. He finally had his own column on Magical Equipment World.
Right then, one of his college classmates who had joined the Zephyr Guild found him and asked him to write a review article about the Demon Beast Detector. Of course, it had to be 'correct' and 'clear'.
This kind of thing was commonplace in the circle.
Although the rules in "Magical Equipment World" were very strict, it was impossible for him to accept commercial bribes openly.
However, when he met his old classmate, he was very comfortable with all the food, drinks, and entertainment. He even introduced him to a long-term free trial of a strengthening potion.
Moreover, the Zephyr Sect was also a giant in the refining circle, so he could build a relationship with them. It would be very beneficial for his future development.
As for the creator of the Demon Beast Detector, Li Yao, who was he?
He was just a nobody!
There was no need for him to think about it. Xu You wrote a review article quickly. He criticized the Demon Beast Detector as worthless.
Originally, this matter was over. Xu You was only a second-tier reviewer on Magical Equipment World, and his column was on an unimportant page. As for the Demon Beast Detector, it was a piece of new magical equipment that nobody knew about, so it received very little attention.
However, a few months later, the Double Dragons Union, with Li Yao as a shareholder, invested in the Mountain Sea Sect and cooperated with the Moon Splitting Sword Sect. Not only did they advertise, but they also used the Flying Sword Network for sales and transportation.
The Demon Beast Detector became popular all of a sudden!
At this moment. It was inevitable that the evaluation article that Xu You had written back then would be dug up again.
The Demon Beast Detector had become popular. Many people bought a set to try it out. After trying it out, of course, they found that his article was exaggerated to put it nicely, but to put it bluntly, it was complete bullshit.
Not only the ordinary netizens left comments under his column, but they also scolded him for being as blind as a bat and saying that such a good magical equipment was worthless.
Even inside the "Magical Equipment World", many people were quite critical of him, thinking that he had damaged the authority of the "Magical Equipment World".
That's right, in this industry, who doesn't have friends and family? It's inevitable that the reviews they write will have some attitude. But you're being too obvious here!
"Xu You is still a bit immature. He needs more practice."
Originally, Xu You was very likely to be promoted this year and host a famous program with a long history.
Because of this incident, he was given such a negative comment. Not only did he lose the chance to host a well-known program, but his evaluation column was also revoked. He also became a foreign reporter who ran around all day.
Xu You was filled with hatred. He didn't hate the Zephyr Guild or his old classmates, and of course, he didn't hate himself for writing such an article. But he hated Li Yao, the creator of the Demon Beast Detector, very much.
If Li Yao hadn't invented the Demon Beast Detector, how could he have ended up like this? How could he have been beaten back to his original position overnight? More than ten years of hard work would have been in vain.
As the saying goes, when enemies meet, their eyes are always red. Xu You hated Li Yao, and he didn't have a good impression of the Grand Desolate War Institution where Li Yao was from, either. He had been picking on the crowd since a moment ago. Now that he saw that it was Li Yao who crawled out of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, he was overwhelmed by fury and blurted out.
However, he had hit an iron plate.
An iron plate with thorns, poison, and heat.
Li Yao smiled and said, "Yes.
"So, you are Mr. Xu You from 'Magical Equipment World'. You are indeed a senior reporter in the circle. No wonder you could raise such a sharp question.
"I still remember the review article 'Demon Beast Detector: This Crab Is Not Tasty' that you wrote in issue 18744 of your magazine.
"In that article, you put forward a lot of wonderful and mysterious theories, such as wearing the Demon Beast Detector on one's ear will cause imbalance in the body, or that if the Demon Beast Detector is broken, the broken pieces are likely to stab into the eyeballs … What a broad mind. You deserve to be a first-rate magical equipment appraisal expert. "
Li Yao's words immediately raised whispers among the audience.
Even if the audience were not experienced professionals, they were still enthusiasts. At the very least, they were magical equipment enthusiasts. Many of them had studied the Demon Beast Detector before. Naturally, they knew that the criticism of 'imbalance in the body' was purely nitpicking.
"What's going on? Look at the two of them. Is there a personal grudge between them?"
"Exactly. Don't you know? Come on, let me tell you!"
Many of the people present more or less knew about the disturbance of the Demon Beast Detector. Reporters were always eager to see the world in chaos.
At that moment, under their exuberant introductions, ripples quickly spread through the crowd.
After listening to their introduction, everyone's face showed an expression of "I see."
They looked at Xu You with disdain.
The reporters of 'Refiners' Home 'and' Flying Sword and Battle Armor 'were particularly gloating. They all felt lucky that they hadn't jumped out recklessly. Otherwise, they would've been the ones to be hung up and beaten up!
Xu You did not expect that Li Yao actually knew who he was and remembered the review article he wrote.
He did not expect that Li Yao would be so cruel. As soon as he came up, he mercilessly exposed his weakness and slapped his face. With just a few words, he slapped his face until it was swollen.
For a moment, his face was red and his neck was thick. He could not say a word.
Li Yao regarded him as a dead dog. Not looking at him anymore, Li Yao glanced at the crowd.
"The test just now can be repeated at any time. If you are not convinced, you can also provide the strength tester. The organizer or the major sects, whoever provides the testing equipment, we can do the test again. However …"
Li Yao sneered. He said, "Forget about 'Magical Equipment World'. Personally, I have some doubts about 'Magical Equipment World''s stance and professionalism. Before my doubts are dispelled, I will not accept any interview or review from 'Magical Equipment World'! "
His words raised another round of gasps.
It was equivalent to throwing another Heavenly Lightning Earthly Fire into the crowd, causing everyone to feel dizzy.
As a refiner, it was normal for them to maintain a good relationship with the three magical equipment magazines.
Li Yao had never heard of a refiner who had fallen out with 'Magical Equipment World' in public. He was truly a man of character!
He was indeed 'Vulture Li Yao'!
"Crack! Crack!"
For a moment, countless flash rune arrays exploded in front of Li Yao, taking countless pictures from various angles that would soon be published on the Internet.
Xu You seemed to be suffering from a fever. He was shivering and gritting his teeth so hard that they were making cracking noises. Deep inside his eyes, he wished that ten thousand pairs of hands could reach out and mince Li Yao into pieces.
He knew that he had caused a lot of trouble this time.
Li Yao sneered in his heart.
The mainstream of the refiners' circle was the elites. The three magical equipment magazines were basically controlled by them, too.
As a grassroots cultivator, no matter how humble and humble you were, they would not show you much respect, nor would they comment on the magical equipment of the grassroots cultivators from a completely fair point of view.
Rather than that, he might as well do the opposite. He would be a thorn in the side and go head-to-head with him.
Chances were that he would be famous in the world of Cultivators.
At the same time, he would let the three magical equipment magazines know that Vulture Li Yao and the Grand Desolate War Institution behind him were not to be messed with!
Yuan Manqiu took the opportunity to step forward and smiled.
"Everyone, the booth of the Grand Desolate War Institution is officially open. Please come in and take your time. You can examine the damaged Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit in person. In the meantime, there is an intact Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit for the fellow Cultivators who have experience in using the Crystal Suit!"
"What do you think, Professor? My mission is not bad, right?"
Li Yao took a step back and spoke in a voice that was as small as a mosquito's.
"Very good. You exceeded your expectations."
