Mo Yan looked at Mark, who wanted to claim credit but didn't dare to step forward, and shook his head helplessly.
"Mastering the ability isn't an excuse to use it indiscriminately."
Mark nodded obediently, but the next second he laughed.
"Didn't I know that Boss would definitely win? I saved you some energy."
Mo Yan's mouth twitched. He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Imperial Dragon Ferry and the others who rushed over.
"You planned it, right? First, you poisoned him, then paralyzed him. Then, when Edward flew into a rage, you killed him directly!"
Xiao Chun's eyes lit up. Her tone was completely filled with admiration.
Mo Yan pursed his lips. He could only silently take the blame. He had nothing to say.
Mark, George, and Mo Yan hadn't seen each other for a long time. Now that they were together again, they naturally had a lot to say.
Du and Yishu were also very understanding, so they took the initiative to say that they had something to do. At the same time, they pulled the reluctant Xiao Chun away.
After everyone left, Mo Yan and the other two looked at each other and smiled. They turned around and walked out.
"Boss, I'm just one more place away. One more place and I'll be the chief of the reserve Heavenly King!"
As soon as he walked out, Mark couldn't help but show off. That proud look was as if he was already one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
"Did you use your special ability?"
"That … I used it in the last round." Mark's momentum weakened, and he scratched his head awkwardly.
"You used it and still lost?"
This time, it was Mo Yan's turn to be surprised. Mark's ability could be said to be the strongest to a certain extent. Luck was something that couldn't be solved.
"Mark only used it when he was left with the last sprite. But the gap had already been widened. No matter how good his luck was, he couldn't reverse it."
George helped to say a few words, which could be considered as an affirmation of Mark's efforts.
"Boss, the first place that I almost defeated before is also participating in the competition this time. You have to be careful!"
"Who is it?"
Mo Yan also wanted to ask who the first place was. He didn't expect that the other party would also participate in the Heavenly King Ranking Competition.
And until now, he hadn't received any news at all.
Clearly, someone was still hiding!
"His name is Shinohara Kai. I heard that he's the child of the Seiyuu Alliance's branch president, Shin Kitahara. Boss, you know, he's an illegitimate child …"
"… Get to the point." George patted Mark's shoulder, speechless.
Mo Yan didn't say anything. He also wanted to hear some gossip about the branch president.
"Sigh, the main point is that that guy is very strong. We know that he has three Heavenly King-tier Quasi God Elves. I heard that his father helped him find them."
Mark's tone was three parts envy, three parts disdain, two parts jealousy, and one part seriousness.
Regardless of whether or not the three Quasi God Elves were gathered for him by the branch president, Beiyuan Shin, they were certainly not weak to become the number one Heavenly King reserve.
At this time, Mo Yan also remembered who Shinohara Kai was.
An ordinary young man who was unremarkable in the preliminary round but barely managed to rank in the top 15.
That's right, when Shinohara Kai was matched with Mo Yan, he took the initiative to admit defeat before it started, so Mo Yan didn't have much of an impression of him.
But the fifteenth place just happened to be the ranking that almost allowed him to enter the finals.
As long as he won one or two more games at the last minute, it was entirely possible to step on the line and qualify for the finals.
Mo Yan narrowed his eyes, probably guessing that Shinohara Kai must have someone behind him to help him operate.
Including who he should win, who he should lose, when he should give up, and use this to hide his strength.
For example, the last few games were arranged for the weaker people to compete with Shinohara Kai, so that he could enter the finals in the most inconspicuous way and hide his strength to the greatest extent!
However, Mo Yan quickly thought of another thing.
"About the news that Shinohara Kai is the number one Heavenly King reserve, your teachers didn't ask you to hide it?"
Mark, who had been careless, was suddenly full of disdain and resentment.
"Originally, there wasn't, but after it was said that Shinohara Kai was the illegitimate child of the Beiyuan Shin branch president, those teachers all began to say something high-sounding …
In order to carry out some secret missions, everyone couldn't reveal each other's true strength to the public.
Then the next day, all of us were dragged to a deserted island for completely closed training. "
"And then?"
The more Mo Yan listened, the more he felt that it was strange. For his son's future, Beiyuan Shin really put in a lot of effort.
After all, those who could enter the reserve Heavenly King reserve, other than the true geniuses, most of them had some background.
And in order to let his son enter the finals more smoothly, he actually directly put the entire reserve Heavenly King reserve under 'house arrest'.
"And then … After the training ended, when we gathered, we found that Shinohara Kai had never appeared.
Then Ryoko secretly came to find me, and I found out that Shinohara Kai had been participating in the preliminaries for more than half a month.
She had just entered the reserve teacher group, and was inexperienced and had no real power, so she knew about this a few days earlier than me.
Ryoko saw that the matter was settled, so she wasn't in a hurry to tell you or not.
That's why she directly came to find me, and told me to remind boss that you must pay attention to Shinohara Kai in the finals! "
"Ryoko …"
Mo Yan softly muttered. This former comrade of his should feel ashamed and unreconciled.
At the beginning, he had been full of ambition to join the reserve Heavenly King reserve teacher group, but after a few years, not only did he not make any achievements, when his friend was being treated unfairly, he could only be a hindsight.
Mo Yan shook his head, only feeling that Ryoko had not had it easy these past few years.
The next time we meet, Mo Yan thought to himself, let's have a good chat.
But this news was not too late for him.
From Shinohara Kai's avoidance of the preliminaries, it could be seen that he did not have the confidence to completely defeat Mo Yan.
Since he had retreated for the first time, Mo Yan would not let him have a chance to win!
The next day, the competition continued. Of the two opponents that Mo Yan met, one directly forfeited, and the other admitted defeat after two rounds. It was obvious that they were both players who had lost all hope.
And Shinohara Kai quietly won two rounds in a row without anyone noticing.
Although Mo Yan was a little unhappy, he did not really care.
If Shinohara Kai was strong enough, his father, the president, would not have spent so much effort to protect him.
When he met a real strong opponent, his true colors would be revealed sooner or later.
Seven days later, the preliminaries of the Heavenly King Qualifier, which had been held for almost a month, finally came to the last round.
As the "end" of the preliminaries, this round received no less attention than the first round that Mo Yan had participated in.
And in the arena, the representative of the independent trainer, Kurac, and the illegitimate son of the branch president, Shinohara Kai, were indeed in a deadlock.
The former had a good reputation, so no matter if he won or lost this round, he would surely enter the finals.
And the latter, Shinohara Kai's points were stuck at 13th place.
If he won, he would advance to the finals!
If he lost, it was impossible to lose …
Mo Yan looked at the relaxed Kurac with pity. Even if he was already in the top 16, he was still being used as a stepping stone without knowing it.
When Shinohara Kai's Banjira appeared, the audience suddenly realized that another strong opponent had appeared.
Twenty minutes later …
Kurac was defeated, and his ranking dropped to 8th place.
Shinohara Kai won, and his ranking rose to 12th place.
He advanced!
