Inside the tavern.
When Lu An heard the girl's words, he was suddenly startled and asked, "You're participating too?"
"Of course, why else would I look for you!" The girl said angrily, but then she noticed Lu An's puzzled look. Only then did she realize that she had spilled the beans and quickly said, "That's not important. What's important is that the two of us can team up!"
Lu An looked at the girl. If the rules were really like that, then it was reasonable for them to team up. However, he had some doubts and asked, "Why do you insist on teaming up with me?"
"Because others don't want to team up with me at all!" The girl became even angrier and said, "They all despise me for being weak and don't want to team up with me."
"…" Lu An smiled bitterly. It turned out that this girl wanted to team up with him because his strength was not high.
Seeing that Lu An did not agree, the girl said, "How about this, if you agree to team up with me, then all your expenses in Purple Lake City these days will be on me. Moreover, after this matter is over, I will give you this' Ice Sealing Technique '. How about it?"
Hearing the girl's generous words, Lu An shook his head slightly and said, "If you want to hire someone to be your bodyguard, I won't do it. But if you want to find someone to be your partner, I can do it. "
Hearing Lu An's words, the girl was slightly startled and asked, "You really don't want this Heaven Technique?"
"No." Lu An said directly, "You can learn it yourself."
"If you don't want it, then forget it!" The girl wanted to give it to him several times but was rejected by him. She simply did not give it and said, "By the way, since you want to team up, what's your name?"
"Lu An." Lu An did not hide and said, "What about you?"
"Yang Mu." The girl said straightforwardly, "There's still half a month before the competition. If you encounter any difficulties during this period, let me know and I'll help you settle it!"
Looking at the girl's proud look, Lu An could not help but smile bitterly and nodded. However, he thought about it and said, "If it's a three-person team, then we still need one more person. What should we do?"
"Look!" Yang Mu said, "Forget it, you're not familiar with this place, let me look. I don't believe that we can't find a single person in half a month! "
Looking at Yang Mu's energetic appearance, Lu An smiled. Actually, there was another reason why he was in the same group as Yang Mu. During the conversation, he had already confirmed Yang Mu's strength.
Although Yang Mu did not deliberately show it, the aura that she unintentionally revealed when she spoke made him very sure that she was a level two Heavenly Master.
Such a young Level 2 Celestial Master probably had even more tricks up his sleeves.
After the two finished eating, Lu An prepared to return to the hotel to cultivate, but he was stopped by Yang Mu, who insisted on bringing him to buy a set of equipment. Lu An naturally wouldn't accept it. He talked for a long time before sending Yang Mu away. Watching Yang Mu leave, Lu An felt more tired than cultivating for a day.
After sending Yang Mu off, Lu An continued walking on the streets of Purple Lake City. To him, this was still an unfamiliar city. He even searched for a long time to find the inn where he was staying. When he finally returned to the floor where he was staying, he walked towards his room in the corridor.
Soon, Lu An walked to his door. When he took out the key and was about to open the door, he suddenly heard a sound.
"Are you sure it's safe here? Will anyone follow you? "
"Don't worry, definitely not. This inn only has one elevator. Whether or not someone is following me, I'll know with a glance! "
Hearing these two sentences, Lu An couldn't help but be startled. The voice came from the room opposite him. Although the door was also made of steel and soundproof, Lu An's current five senses were outstanding after all, so he could still hear some of it.
However, Lu An wasn't interested in other people's secrets. He opened the door and prepared to enter the room.
At this moment, he heard another sentence that caught his attention.
"I've already scouted out the information. This competition is the best time to make a move. I didn't expect him to come here. It's simply a heaven-sent opportunity! "
"What's the specific plan of action?"
"It's all here! You have to take a good look. Bring your people and don't make any mistakes. If this is successful, boss will reward you with countless good things! "
"Understood! Understood! "
"…"
Lu An felt that someone was about to come out from the opposite door. He immediately walked into his room and closed the door softly. Through the gap in the door, he saw someone walking out from the opposite door. After looking left and right, he left.
The competition is the best time to make a move?
If it was before, Lu An wouldn't have cared. However, Yang Mu just told him about the competition in half a month. Could it really be that competition?
What were these people going to do? Who were they going to attack?
Lu An frowned. No matter what these people were going to do, unless it was a group incident, it wouldn't affect him. However, whether it was that competition or not, no matter what was going on, he had to be careful.
It seemed that Purple Lake City wasn't as peaceful as it looked.

Half a month later, on the day of the competition, morning.
Lu An woke up early and packed his luggage. Last night, he made an exception and slept for almost four hours. He wanted to be in a full state of mind for today.
Lu An knew that everyone in this competition was stronger than him. Without using the Realm of the Demon Gods, he could only fight against a Level Two Celestial Master. The chances of him fighting against a Level Three Celestial Master were too small. No matter what, this was a tough battle.
He knew that he had no chance of being in the top three. He would treat this competition as a trial for himself. After all, he had never participated in such a chaotic battle. It must be a different kind of trial.
Just as Lu An finished packing up and was about to leave, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opposite opening just as he was about to push the door open.
Lu An was startled. He immediately stopped and didn't go out.
"Let's go! Let's go! The earlier we go, the earlier we can enter the forest! "
"…"
After saying a few words, Lu An felt that these people left quickly. Lu An woke up early enough. He didn't expect these people to wake up earlier than him. It seemed that the competition these people were talking about was today's competition.
Thinking of this, Lu An frowned. He naturally didn't want to meddle in other people's business. He packed his luggage and went out.
He took the elevator and left the inn. After walking on the street for a while, Lu An arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. At this moment, a fence had been pulled up at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. The fence was already crowded with people. There were also many people inside the fence.
After asking, Lu An learned that the people inside the fence were the participants of the competition. The people outside the fence were all onlookers. Many of them were the family members of the Celestial Masters inside the fence.
Lu An walked to the entrance of the fence and reported his name to the staff. After the verification was successful, he handed Lu An a fence and said, "Protect your mark. Snatch more marks from others. The three with the most marks will enter the review."
When Lu An heard this, it was indeed the same as what Yang Mu said. He nodded and said, "Understood."
The people standing next to the fence saw that such a young person like Lu An was actually a participant of the competition. They couldn't help but be shocked. However, they also cast a distressed gaze.
The people here weren't easy to talk to. Everyone wanted to snatch the Purple Lake mark. They wouldn't be merciful just because they were young. One must know that the death rate in this competition was never low.
Lu An just walked a few steps into the fence. Suddenly, two people wearing veil hats ran towards him. Lu An was startled and stopped. Soon, the two people stood in front of Lu An.
Then, the two people pulled their veil hats open. One of them said, "Lu An, it's me!"
If this person wasn't Yang Mu, who else could it be?
"Yang Mu?" Lu An was startled and asked, "Why are you wearing a veil hat?"
"We'll talk about this later!" Yang Mu said softly, "Let me introduce you. She's my friend, called Xiao Lan. She's also a Level 2 Celestial Master."
When Lu An heard this, he was startled. He turned to look at the other girl wearing a veil hat. This girl looked about twenty years old and was also a Level 2 Celestial Master.
"Greetings to Miss Lan." Lu An said politely.
"Young Master Lu." Xiao Lan said softly. Her voice was very delicate and she was much more polite than Yang Mu.
Lu An looked at the two people. He really didn't expect that the two people were friends.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.
"Such an immature brat. Why aren't you studying in your private school? Why are you here to play around?"
