I want you to teach me how to defeat Qin Lei in the duel. Why are you asking me to pour meat soup on him?
Brother, I'm a master teacher, not a hoodlum. Brawling with a hoodlum...
Besides, doing so would only infuriate the other party. It would be completely useless in the duel!
He thought that the other party would have some good ideas after his dazzling performance. Never in his dreams did he expect that... he would be so unreliable!
If he really did that, his reputation would probably be immediately swept to the ground, and he would be utterly humiliated.
Pavilion Master Kang and the others also widened their eyes in shock.
Pour meat soup on his face?
Th-this... What kind of move is this?
Perplexed, they turned to look at Zhao Feiwu.
Her previous analysis was logical, so she should be able to come up with something this time as well!
With a single look, their bodies swayed.
Even Zhao Feiwu's eyes were about to pop out of her head, and she was dumbfounded.
Even though her cultivation was lacking, she was praised for her knowledge and wisdom. She thought that she would be able to guess what the other party was going to say, but... what did 'pour meat soup on his face' mean?
This... Her imagination was simply too wild! She couldn't keep up with it at all!
Ruohuan gongzi wanted to win... but if he wanted the other party to pour a bowl of meat soup on the other party's face, he wouldn't even be able to touch it...
How am I supposed to guess?
"Unwilling? Then there's nothing I can do... "
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
In any case, he had already come up with the idea. If the other party was unwilling, so be it.
Even if the sect head of White Helios Sect, Bai Kaizhi, had made a move on Zheng Yang and the others, he had already been executed on the spot. Thus, he wouldn't be implicated in the matter. Ruohuan gongzi was only helping him out out of friendship.
"If I do this... can Zhang Shi really guarantee my victory?"
Seeing the other party shake his head, Ruohuan gongzi knew that success depended on this gamble. Thus, he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly.
"Guarantee? No one can guarantee anything. If you don't believe me, then go! "
Zhang Xuan continued eating.
If Zhao Feiwu was right, it wouldn't be a problem for Ruohuan gongzi to slap him back. His method would definitely be able to achieve victory.
On the other hand, if the other party didn't want to cause him trouble...
"This..."
Ruohuan gongzi's eyes flickered. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I'll go!"
The top ten would be given the opportunity to study at the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy. If they were to grasp this opportunity, they would surely be able to achieve great things in the future. If they were to lose it … it would be hard to say whether they would be able to become a 5-star master teacher or not.
As for whether it would be unfair to Qin Lei … That was none of his business.
The road ahead was filled with competition. If he didn't make a move, the other party would definitely use him as a stepping stone.
There was no true fairness in this world. If you only thought about taking care of others, you wouldn't be able to cultivate.
"Cough cough, Ruohuan, you have to think this through..."
Hearing that his student really believed Zhang shi's words and intended to pour the meat soup over the other party, Pavilion Master Kang's eyebrows shot up. "I fear that Qin shi will beat you to death if you do so... and White Helios Sect will fall into a deadlock!"
The corner of Ruohuan gongzi's mouth twitched.
Well, if he really did that, the other party might really beat him into a meat patty.
"Don't worry. If he hits you, you won't run away! With so many master teachers watching, he won't dare to act recklessly. Besides... it won't be that easy to beat him to death! " Zhang Xuan waved his hands. "Besides, don't worry, I guarantee that he won't hit you. As long as you run, he'll allow you to leave!"
"..."
Ruohuan gongzi.
It would be a miracle if he didn't hit me...
"Alright then!"
Knowing that he could only rely on Zhang Shi's guidance to achieve victory, Ruohuan gongzi gritted his teeth, picked up the bowl of meat soup, and walked over.
It felt as though the wind was howling and the water was cold.
Seeing Ruohuan gongzi heading straight for Qin Lei, the mouths of Pavilion Master Kang and the others twitched.
Even though they trusted Zhang Shi, this... was a little too much!
"Zhang Shi, is it really fine for you to do this?"
Zhao Feiwu couldn't hold herself back any longer.
Placing a piece of meat into his mouth, Zhang Xuan stuttered, "There's definitely something wrong!"
"Something wrong?"
Everyone's eyebrows twitched.
If there's something wrong, why are you calling Ruohuan gongzi over? Could it be that you want to see him beaten up into a pig's head?
"Your analysis is right. There's an eighty percent chance that the other party will choose to compete in their comprehension of cultivation, but... there's still a twenty percent chance that he'll choose to compete in a physical duel!"
Seeing the expressions of the crowd, it was clear that they wouldn't give up until he explained the matter clearly. Thus, Zhang Xuan could only speak up.
"Un!"
Zhao Feiwu nodded.
No matter how accurate her deduction was, she wasn't Qin Lei. The other party would have his own thoughts, and there was a high chance that he would choose a different method.
Zhang Xuan glanced at Luo Ruoxin and asked, "Splashing the other party's face so brazenly is no different from provoking him. If I were to do the same to you, what would you do?"
"I'll... beat you to death!" Zhao Feiwu said.
"Indeed. Qin Lei must be thinking the same thing as well, but... he's determined to get into the top ten. Ruohuan gongzi's provocation is a direct signal to him... Under such circumstances, what do you think he'll do? "
"This..."
Everyone was stunned.
Splashing meat soup on Ruohuan gongzi's face was a blatant provocation. Qin Lei must have known that Ruohuan gongzi was doing it on purpose. Since the tournament was about to begin, it was obvious that he was trying to provoke him into a physical duel...
No one would believe that Ruohuan gongzi didn't have any trump cards up his sleeves!
However, he was also determined to get into the top ten. If he wasn't confident, he would choose to forfeit the duel. Firstly, he wouldn't be forced into a passive position. Secondly, he could display his magnanimity and win the hearts of others.
"Anyone would fly into a rage after having meat soup splashed on their face. As long as he makes a move, he would be able to see through the flaws in the duel. At the very least, he wouldn't be flustered on the stage!"
Zhang Xuan continued.
If the other party didn't execute a battle technique, he wouldn't be able to see through the other party's flaws. If he were to compete in a normal duel, it would be nigh impossible for him to emerge victorious.
However, as long as he could provoke the other party into executing a battle technique, he would be able to see through the other party's flaws and deal with it accordingly.
As for whether Ruohuan gongzi would be beaten up or not, that was no longer his concern.
After all, it would be inexcusable if he didn't pay a price to win.
"I see..."
Hearing the explanation, the crowd widened their eyes in realization.
It was just a moment ago that they thought that Zhao Feiwu's analytical ability was astounding. However, at this moment, they realized that Zhang Shi's thoughts were far deeper than that.
In a short period of time, not only did he make up for Princess Feiwu's flaws, he even left himself a way out... Incredible!
It was fortunate that he was from the League of Nations. If he was from the other party's faction, he probably wouldn't even know how he died.
"Look, it's starting!"
At this moment, Su shi pointed forward.
Everyone turned their gazes over, and as expected, Ruohuan gongzi had already arrived at Qin Lei's location.
At this moment, Qin Lei was in the midst of eating as well. Seeing that his opponent wasn't eating obediently and instead, brought a bowl over, he was dumbfounded.
"Qin shi, nice to meet you!"
Ruohuan gongzi nodded.
"H-hello!"
Qin Lei frowned.
"Our duel will be starting soon, so I would like to discuss something with you..." Ruohuan gongzi said politely.
"Discuss something? What is it? If you wish to admit defeat in advance, forget it! "
Harrumphing coldly, before Qin Lei could finish his words, he suddenly felt an oily and scalding liquid splashing on his face.
"The heck!"
Qin Lei's head exploded, and he was on the verge of going insane.
Seeing that fellow walk over, he thought that the other party was intending to admit defeat in advance so that he wouldn't lose too badly. Never in his dreams did he expect that a bowl of scalding meat soup would be splashed on him instead...
"I'll kill you..."
Roaring furiously, Qin Lei's aura gushed forth, and he raised his palm to slap Ruohuan gongzi.
"Hu!"
Ruohuan gongzi was prepared for this. He immediately turned around and fled. As he fled, he shouted, "My apologies, Qin shi. I didn't do it on purpose. My hand just slipped..."
"..."
Black lines streaked across everyone's face.
Carrying a bowl of meat soup over, and before he could finish his words, the other party's head, how could he not do it on purpose?
More importantly, he was two to three meters away from the other party. For his hand to slip on the other party's head, wasn't that a little too much?
Would you even believe such a reason?
"Damn it..."
As expected, upon hearing those words, Qin Lei flew into a rage. Just as he was about to chase after that fellow and slap him to death, an elder stopped him.
"Elder Zhou..."
Seeing that the one who stopped him was an elder of his sect, Qin Lei hurriedly said.
"Don't fall into the other party's trap..." Elder Zhou sent a telepathic message over.
"Fall into the other party's trap?" Qin Lei was taken aback.
"Un. The other party is intentionally provoking you to infuriate you. If you were to make a move on him now, there's a good chance that you will be disqualified from the tournament!" Elder Zhou said.
The Master Teacher Tournament was an orderly process. If one were to get into a fight even before the start of the tournament, one could very well be disqualified from the tournament.
"But..." Qin Lei's body stiffened. Even though he understood the logic behind the elder's words, he was still on the verge of exploding.
For a 4-star pinnacle master teacher to have a bowl of meat soup splashed on his face, how could he not be angry?
"With the death of our sect leader, our White Helios Sect is facing a grave crisis. You must get into the top ten this time... Otherwise, it's only a matter of time before our sect is swallowed up by the other powers!"
Elder Zhou said with a grim expression.
Back then, when they attacked Zhang Xuan, he was there as well. The sight of Zhang Xuan killing their sect leader in a single move was still fresh in his mind.
Offending a suspected 8-star master teacher meant that their White Helios Sect could very well be destroyed at any moment. Their only hope was for Qin Lei to get into the top ten!
If they were to head to the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy to study, the other powers would have to think twice before making a move on them.
"Since that fellow came here to provoke you, he must have something up his sleeves. Otherwise, he would have given up on himself. In any case, he won't be able to get into the top ten, so if he can drag you down with him, it would be a huge win for him!"
Elder Zhou continued, "You mustn't fall for his tricks recklessly!"
"Then what should I do?"
Qin Lei's heart jolted, and he immediately stopped.
"There's no need to panic. Let's continue the duel according to the plan we discussed previously. Let's ensure our position in the top ten first. As for that fellow... We can issue him a [Master Teacher Challenge] after the tournament! Or even... a Life-and-Death Duel! "
Elder Zhou harrumphed coldly. "By then, won't you be able to kill him however you want? Even if you were to be sliced into eight pieces, no one would care about you! "
"This..." Qin Lei was taken aback for a moment. Gritting his teeth, he roared savagely, "Fine, we'll have a Life-and-Death Duel then. If I don't kill him, my name isn't Qin Lei!"
...
"Hmm? He didn't chase after me? He didn't hit me either? "
After running for a while, Ruohuan gongzi realized that no one was chasing after him. Recalling Zhang Shi's words, he thought, "Could it be that... he really saw a ghost?"
