By the time he left the Chamber of Commerce, it was already noon.
Walking on the street, Lu An let out a long sigh. No matter who that girl was, she was a troublemaker. Originally, he wanted to take a look inside, but if he continued to look in that situation, something would definitely happen. It seemed that he had to find another opportunity.
Because it was noon, Lu An found a restaurant. The restaurant looked luxurious. Lu An found a corner and sat down. He ordered two simple dishes and waited quietly for the dishes to be served.
While waiting, he recalled what had happened that day. First, he applied for and participated in the competition. He was thinking about how to increase his chances of entering the Purple Lake. Then there were the exhibits in the Chamber of Commerce. There were indeed a few items that he wanted.
Just as he lowered his head in thought, the sound of light footsteps suddenly came from beside him.
Lu An was startled. He looked up and saw a figure sitting on the chair in front of him.
This person was the girl who was dressed as a man earlier!
Seeing that this girl actually followed him to such a place, Lu An was displeased. He frowned and looked at the girl. Suppressing his emotions, he asked, "What's the matter?"
"It's nothing." The girl looked at Lu An and curled her lips. "I thought about it just now. It seems that I did follow you by coincidence. I've wronged you. I'd like to apologize to you!"
Lu An was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect this girl to be here to apologize to him. Just as he was about to say something, the girl's ring flashed. Then, she threw something on the table.
"Take this as my apology," the girl said.
Lu An was startled. He looked down at the thing on the table. When he saw it, his body trembled.
"Ice Sealing Technique!"
This was the Ice Sealing Technique that cost 13,000 gold. This girl actually bought it just like that?!
Lu An looked at the girl in front of him in shock. However, he quickly calmed down and pushed the book back to the girl. He said in a deep voice, "I accept your apology. I don't need this Heaven Technique."
Seeing Lu An's expression, the girl frowned and said, "Just take it. What's there to be embarrassed about? I have plenty of such Heavenly Arts, and I don't care about this bit of money. "
Looking at the girl's domineering look, Lu An's eyes narrowed slightly and he said softly, "Miss, it's your business if you don't care, and it's my business if I don't accept it. The two have nothing to do with each other. If I don't want it, are you going to force it on me? "
When the girl heard Lu An's words, she was immediately enraged and said loudly, "You really don't know how to appreciate favors. This young lady has specially apologized to you. This is already a great reward, and you still don't want to accept it?"
Lu An looked at the girl and frowned slightly. Although he didn't like this girl, she wasn't a bad person after all. He could only take a deep breath and said patiently, "Miss, don't force your thoughts on others. What you think is right may not be liked by others. "
Just as the girl was about to say something, a voice came from beside her. The waiter placed the dishes on the table and said, "Please enjoy."
Lu An picked up his chopsticks, glanced at the girl, and said, "If there's nothing else, I'm going to eat."
Hearing Lu An's order to chase her away, the girl was even more stunned. She was so angry that her face turned red and said, "You're annoying me, aren't you? The more you annoy me, the more I won't leave today! "
With that, Lu An watched in astonishment as the girl ordered a lot of dishes. Even the small table couldn't fit them, and it was almost squeezed out.
Lu An looked at the table full of dishes and couldn't help but be stunned. He looked at the arrogant girl opposite him. At this moment, he was sure of one thing, and that was that the other party was really rich.
This time, Lu An didn't leave the table because he ordered the dishes, so he naturally had to finish them. Among the dishes on the table, he only ate the two side dishes that he ordered. He didn't touch the rest.
Soon, the girl also noticed this. She immediately looked unhappy and asked, "Why didn't you eat the dishes that I ordered?"
Hearing this, Lu An glanced at the girl but didn't say anything and continued to eat.
Seeing this, the girl was even angrier. She stood up and directly put a dish in Lu An's bowl!
Lu An was stunned. He looked up at the girl and asked with a frown, "What are you doing?"
"Eating!" The girl said, "Why didn't you eat the dishes that I ordered? Is it bad?"
Seeing the girl's expression, Lu An frowned. He couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and said to the girl, "Miss, you and I have never met before, and we can't be considered acquaintances. You go your way, and I go mine. You and I are passersby. Why do you have to be entangled? "
Hearing Lu An's words, the girl was also stunned. Then, she shook her head and said, "Then I want to get to know you now!"
"Sorry, I don't want to have anything to do with too many people." Lu An frowned and said softly, "Miss, you look like a local. I'm just a tourist. It's useless to get to know me."
"You!" The girl looked at Lu An angrily. This person had repeatedly rejected her. It was simply unbearable. When had she ever been treated like this? Anyone who picked her up would have to be obedient to her.
Suddenly, the girl's angry face calmed down. Then, she raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, "You're here for the Purple Lake?"
Lu An looked at the girl. At this moment, he just wanted to end this as soon as possible. He didn't hide it and nodded. "Yes."
"Then did you apply for it, or did you sign up for the competition?" The girl quickly asked again.
"I did both." Lu An told the truth.
"You even signed up for the competition?" The girl looked at Lu An in surprise. In fact, she had already felt that Lu An was a Heavenly Master. After all, only a Heavenly Master would be interested in the things in the Chamber of Commerce. However, in her opinion, Lu An's strength was definitely not high. She asked, "Are you strong enough?"
"How would I know if I don't try?" Lu An said.
Hearing Lu An's words, the girl was much quieter this time. It was rare for her to stop talking. Instead, she sat on the chair and thought about something. Lu An, on the other hand, was happy to eat in peace. After eating, he quickly left.
However, after he ate for a while, the girl suddenly looked up at him and asked, "Do you know the specific content of the competition?"
Lu An was slightly startled. He looked up at the girl and said, "I don't know."
"Every three months, there will be about 500 people participating in the competition. With so many people, it's naturally impossible to settle it with a one-on-one fight. That would be too slow and inefficient," the girl said.
Lu An was slightly startled. He had thought of this before. However, he simply thought that the competition would last for a few days. He did not think that there would be other methods.
Lu An listened carefully. The girl looked at Lu An and did not keep him in suspense. She directly said, "Actually, the content of the competition is a forest."
"Forest?" Lu An was startled. He looked at the girl in confusion.
"That's right." The girl said, "Before the competition, everyone will receive a Purple Lake Mark. Then, everyone will enter a huge forest. Everyone will have to spend three days and three nights in the forest. After three days and three nights, everyone will come out of the forest. Whoever has the most Purple Lake Marks will win! "
After the girl finished speaking, Lu An's expression was obviously startled. Finally, it became serious. He did not expect that there would be such a method of assessment. In other words, only the top three people with Purple Lake Marks will participate in the final assessment.
"This kind of battle can't be completed with just one person's strength." The girl saw that Lu An was deep in thought. She quickly continued, "In the forest, it is allowed to form teams. Because the top three will be chosen, everyone will form a team of three. If you go alone, it will be disastrous. "
Lu An heard this and his eyebrows furrowed even deeper. Indeed, one against three would be at a disadvantage. Moreover, he had promised the person in the black fog that he would not use the Realm of the Demon Gods. It would be even more difficult.
It seemed that the chances of this trip were really too slim.
Thinking of this, Lu An could not help but sigh and continue eating. The girl sitting opposite him was stunned when she saw that Lu An did not have any reaction. She then asked, "Shouldn't you say something?"
Lu An was startled when he heard this. He raised his head and looked at the girl in confusion. Then, he thought of something and said, "Thank you for telling me!"
Hearing Lu An's words, the girl's face stiffened. She then gritted her teeth and said, "It's not that …"
"Then what is it?" Lu An was slightly startled and asked.
The girl's face stiffened when she heard this. She said through gritted teeth, "Don't tell me … you don't want to invite me to your team?"
