Shirō Makino glanced at them.
Their expressions were as calm as ever, not even the slightest fluctuation could be seen.
Their mental fortitude was too good?
Even such an unexpected terrain couldn't make their bodies tremble?
Or … they were already prepared?
Shirō Makino's mind raced.
He felt that there was something fishy about this.
But what kind of person could stretch their hands into the Hundred Flower Cup and tamper with such an important matter as the drawing of lots?
Was it the big shot who changed the rules of the competition?
But why would he do that?
As for Master Ma, Shirō Makino didn't believe that such a thing could be done by a so-called big shot from the north of the city.
Not to mention a kid like him, Ji Chae Yi, Shan Gu, Si Yin … including team leader Liu Zhiyuan, which one of them was from an ordinary family?
With the power of these families, a spit from each of them could drown Wang Er Mazi, right?
How could he, a lowly big boss of the northern part of the city, compare to him?
Besides, since Wang Er Mazi was able to dominate the north of the city for so many years, he definitely wasn't a brainless idiot. Didn't he know that he should understand the situation before making a move?
Even a kid like Shirō Makino could think of this. How could a sly person like Wang Er Mazi not think of it?
Besides, unless they were involved in the betting, what was the point of tampering in the virtual world?
The few of them were communicating in the small group chat.
"No matter what, we can't let our guard down for tomorrow's competition. We need to be careful," Liu Zhiyuan said.
"I'll bring a few more talismans and keep them under control," Shirō Makino said.
"You sound like you know something else." Shan Gu laughed.
"I'll ask my family if there's any information about the ruins when I get back. I'll send it to everyone." This was from the rich lady.
Si Yin hesitated and said softly, "How about I go on stage tomorrow?"
Everyone looked at her.
Si Yin replied, "I've seen some videos about the ruins …"
Ji Chae Yi smiled happily. She reached out her hand and rubbed Si Yin's head. "I don't need you, Little Si Yin. No matter what the terrain is, we will win!"
The other semifinalist, Hundred Blossoms University versus Hundred Blossoms High School, came out at this time.
It was a city street fight.
This was a very ordinary and normal terrain.
After the results of the draw came out, both sides were quite satisfied.
On the other hand, the other two teams were stunned when they saw the terrain.
Ancient ruins?
Did he win the lottery?
After leaving the competition center, Wan Xiong sent a message to Shirō Makino: I have some information on the primordial ruins. I'll send it to you immediately.
After Shirō Makino expressed his gratitude, he quickly received some written information about the ancient ruins.
After reading it, Shirō Makino had a very strong feeling: this information was probably written by Wan Xiong himself!
Every step was extremely detailed, and the tone of his voice was also very suitable for a Soul Warrior like Wan Xiong.
No wonder he could lead his team into the top ten of the Flying Immortals High School League when he was only a Level Seven Soul Warrior. Sure enough, every successful person wasn't simple.
Who knew how many hardships and secrets were hidden behind them.
The information detailed the entire process of entering and exiting the ancient ruins.
From start to finish, there was only about forty minutes of experience.
It was simply treacherous. Every step was a trap!
By the end, people would have a feeling: what's the point of exploring? Being able to come back alive was already amazing.
If this didn't count for anything, there was one point in the information that made Shirō Makino's scalp tingle.
Wan Xiong said that he had heard from the person who brought him into the ancient ruins that some of the things in the ancient ruins, if completely replicated in the virtual world, could be used to kill people!
Thus, at the end of the information, Wan Xiong reminded Shirō Makino to be careful. Don't think that just because it was a virtual world, it didn't mean that he didn't take it seriously.
The information was distributed to everyone. After everyone looked at it, a faint sense of fear lingered in their hearts.
However, it was more of an inexplicable feeling.
It was just the semi-finals of the Intercity Cup. Was there a need to go to this extent?
Or could it be that Wang Er Mazi and Grandpa Ma were really that omnipotent?
"Let's go to my house." Ji Chae Yi said.
"Follow me." Shirō Makino looked at everyone. "Follow me first."
Sun Heng's house.
Sun Heng and the butler, Sun Rui, were both there.
The two of them received the group of youths in the reception room in the front building.
After listening to Shirō Makino's various speculations, Sun Rui was the first to speak.
"In order to save a friend, you offended a small hooligan from the north of the city?"
Small … small hooligan?
Shirō Makino and the others exchanged glances. They were speechless.
In the eyes of Chae Yi's Third Uncle, a person who was difficult to deal with, was just a small hooligan in Sun Rui's eyes?
If it wasn't for the fact that Ji Chae Yi and Shirō Makino had briefly introduced the Sun family to everyone, the others would have thought that Sun Rui was bragging.
Shirō Makino nodded. "Yes, Uncle Rui."
"Then, you opened a shop in the center of the city to accommodate the people you brought from the north of the city?"
"Yes."
"It was smashed in less than a day?"
"Yes."
"A brat from the Ji family asked you to close the shop for a few days, saying that he had someone in the city guards?"
"Yes."
Sun Rui asked. He took a deep breath and looked at Shirō Makino. "You said that there were rumors that the rules of the Hundred Flowers Cup were changed because someone interfered?"
"Yes."
Sun Rui glanced at Sun Heng.
Sun Heng smiled. "I thought it was an internal change in Hundred Flowers City. I even praised it at the time. What's the point of a simple arena battle? Standing in a childish formation, coming and going, it's child's play. "
Shirō Makino thought to himself: You're going to topple a boat full of people with one move! We're just children!
The big boss's vision is too high. We can't afford to offend him.
Sun Rui asked again, "Then, you chose the ancient ruins' terrain? Someone also told you that there's a way to kill people when the ancient ruins are moved into the virtual world? "
Shirō Makino nodded. "Yes, Uncle Rui."
Sun Rui looked at Sun Heng again. Sun Heng waved his hand. "You handle it."
Sun Heng said and looked at Shirō Makino and the others. With a serious expression, he said, "Killing people in the virtual world … is possible. But it requires a combination of many factors, usually targeted at … "
At this point, a cold light flashed in Sun Heng's eyes.
He glanced at Sun Rui. "Ask them now."
Xiao Bai and the others sat at the side and watched the show.
Sun Rui thought about it and didn't leave. Instead, he dialed his communicator in front of everyone.
There was no image. A calm, gentle, and somewhat respectful voice came from the other side.
"Hello, Mr. Rui. What can I do for you?"
Ji Chae Yi's expression changed slightly, but she didn't say anything. She thought to herself: Dad is right. The Sun family is the real top family in Hundred Flowers City!
They are different from the Ji family, which originated from Hundred Flowers City and spread throughout the Flying Celestial Planet.
The Sun family is very pure.
They originated from Hundred Flowers City and took root in the army.
They are very low-key in Hundred Flowers City. Not many people know about them.
They don't seem to have much influence. Their son and daughter are developing in the education department. But in fact, any one of them can call the City Lord directly.
"City Lord Guan, I would like to ask why the Hundred Flowers Cup suddenly changed the rules." Sun Rui was also quite polite and asked with a smile.
The other side seemed to pause for a moment. He probably didn't expect Sun Rui to contact him for this kind of thing.
"Please wait for a moment. I will get back to you soon," the other side said.
"Okay." Sun Rui hung up and looked at Sun Heng. "General, I will make a trip."
Sun Heng nodded.
General, not the family lord anymore?
Shirō Makino thought to himself.
Sun Heng looked at Shirō Makino. "I will leave after you finish the finals. Don't forget to come to my house." He said with a smile. "You can bring your friends with you."
