Following Ding Qiushui's elimination, it was as if the entire Jianlu Selection had been kicked off overnight. Everyone became nervous.
What Lü Shu didn't expect the most was that Sun Zhongyang would betray the news that he had advanced to Rank-1 … He had failed to break into the ranks of Rank-2.
Not only that, when he was a Rank-2, he was ranked first on the hot list. However, at that time, Ding Qiushui was ranked first on the strength list. Therefore, although everyone was unhappy with his ranking, they still treated Ding Qiushui as a truly troublesome opponent.
Although they were unhappy, they didn't come up with any strategies to deal with him. After all, he was only a Rank-2. Even if he had caused everyone to lose money because of gambling in King City, or even in other places, it couldn't compare to the importance of the Jianlu Recommendation.
Who would care about the money they had lost in the Jianlu Recommendation? They would definitely put aside their past grudges and calmly think about who to target first.
However, it was different now. He was a Rank-1 … Many people felt like they were going to settle old and new grudges at the same time.
Lü Shu looked at the black shadow on the wall and asked curiously, "Do you really believe what the Sun family said?"
"What else? The Sun family has no reason to lie to us. We don't have any conflicts of interest. "That person sneered.
Lü Shu was surprised. "Then you know I'm a Rank-1, and you still dare to talk to me like this?"
In the two days since Lü Shu entered King City, the remaining 46 Jianlu contestants had become 44.
Up until now, the eliminated people were 100% the work of Lü Shu … There was no one else at all …
Lü Shu sighed and brought Yi Qian back to the inn. There were three rooms in the courtyard of the inn, one for each person.
Lü Shu went back to his room to continue eating fruits. Lü Xiaoyu curiously asked Yi Qian what had happened. Then, Yi Qian told him what had happened. Then, he asked curiously, "Is His Majesty always so hot-tempered?"
From Yi Qian's point of view, Lü Shu was a very irascible person. That Second Pin fighter couldn't escape even if he wanted to. Lü Shu pressed him to the ground and gave him a good beating. Lü Shu even made him pay to "redeem" himself.
Lü Xiaoyu calmly replied: "He has a unique ability"
Yi Qian was even more curious. Why was this related to a special ability? He couldn't help but ask, "What special ability?"
"An ability that can make the dog shit regret stepping on it …"
Yi Qian: "…"
…
Lü Shu knew that he might be lacking in planning. After all, most of the things that he had meticulously planned up until now had not worked. Even when Lin Lin was eavesdropping on Sun Zhongyang and the others, it was Lü Xiaoyu's idea.
However, Lü Shu was actually a little unconvinced. Why did Xiaoyu's plan always work, but his plan always worked?
After being ridiculed by Lü Xiaoyu for a whole night, Lü Shu couldn't stand it anymore. He had to change Lü Xiaoyu's opinion of him so that his plan could also work!
Otherwise, how could he maintain his dignity in the future?
During breakfast, Lü Shu was unhappy to see Lü Xiaoyu's sneaky smile. "What are you laughing at? I've already thought it through last night. Maybe I've been thinking in the wrong direction all along. With my current strength, do I need to work with Second Pin fighters? There's no need at all! "
However, at this time, Lü Xiaoyu suddenly interrupted, "I want to ask you something. Where did you get those fruits from?"
Lü Shu said seriously, "Look, I'm talking about serious matters. Don't interrupt me. I think it's like this. I need to change my strategy …"
"Hehe." Lü Xiaoyu crossed her arms and sneered. With her strength yesterday, she had lit up all the stars on the fourth level overnight. Lü Shu's Star Map was obviously locked, so he couldn't cultivate. She was a little curious about how these fruits were born.
Since Lü Shu refused to tell her, there must be something fishy about it!
Yi Qian asked, "Boss, what strategy do you plan to change?"
Lü Shu gave Yi Qian a look that said 'you're very sensible', then quickly continued, "Why do we have to work with Second Pin fighters? They're weak, and if there's more of them, they'll have their own plans. Since the fact that we're first Pin fighters have been exposed, let's work with them to kick Second Pin fighters out first! Perfect! "
"That's perfect?" Lü Xiaoyu was noncommittal.
After Yi Qian left, Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu were unfamiliar with the place and people after arriving in Lü Zhou. However, Yi Qian was different. Not only was Yi Qian a native here, but he was also a big shot in Lü Zhou's underworld, and had even been Mituryū Kanao.
Now that Yi Qian had signed an alliance with him, Lü Shu didn't have to worry about him betraying him, so he just had to wait patiently for news. He suddenly felt that the feeling of having someone to run errands for him was actually not bad …
At night, Yi Qian returned. He whispered to Lü Shu in the courtyard, "I found the contestant ranked third on the popularity chart. He's from the Western Capital, and he's the illegitimate son of Duanmu Huangqi."
Lü Shu was puzzled. "Ding Qiushui is also the illegitimate son of a Grandmaster, and yet another illegitimate son popped up. Are there so many illegitimate children? And why don't they teach him themselves? Why do they insist on sending him to Jianlu? "
Yi Qian was stunned for a moment. "Teaching him themselves is definitely not as good as sending him to Jianlu."
This time, it was Lü Shu's turn to be stunned. From Yi Qian's subconscious words, he finally understood how high of a position Jianlu held in the hearts of the people of Lü Zhou. He actually felt that sending him to Jianlu was not as good as having him personally taught by the Emperor Of Heaven!
This was a reasonable thought.
Lü Shu asked curiously, "Is Jianlu that mystical? Could it be that the Emperor Of Heaven is unable to produce a Grandmaster himself? And look at this Ding Qiushui. He already has the strength of a first-rank martial artist when he came to participate in the Jianlu Recommendation. There's a limit to how much he can improve. "
"It's not the same." Yi Qian shook his head. "To many people, Jianlu is like a religion. Back then, during the chaos of war in Lü Zhou, we followed the Old Divine King to expand our territory, but we also made countless enemies. That person in Jianlu had helped the Old Divine King to turn the tide several times. And entering Jianlu is equivalent to having a death-exemption medallion. In the future, no matter how intense the battles are, he can still preserve his life. This is also the reason why Liu Yizhao is still alive. "
"Who would dare to touch the illegitimate son of the Emperor Of Heaven?" Lü Shu did not understand.
"There are other Emperor Of Heaven too." Yi Qian said, "Moreover, a Grandmaster has to form their own rules. This kind of thing is not something that can be taught. It depends on one's comprehension, talent, and luck. However, Jianlu seems to have a way to guide one to becoming a Grandmaster. Although it's still very difficult, at least everyone can see where the path is."
"Wait a minute." Lü Shu was stunned for a moment. "There's a way to become a Grandmaster in Jianlu? Then are there many Grandmasters in Jianlu? Didn't they say that there are less than ten Grandmasters in this world? How many can there be? "
