Chapter 65: Chapter 65: May Fairy Zhu’s Wishes Come True!
Gu Ying casually slapped, wiping out all those people.
The attack was ruthless, with not a hint of hesitation, making the others tremble with fear.
"Alright, it’s settled. Who are you?" Gu Ying clapped her hands, raised a sweet smile, and looked at Luo Tao and Chen Lan.
"We are from Qin University, here to slay Demon Beasts and gain combat experience." Luo Tao immediately replied.
"Oh, okay." Gu Ying nodded, her gaze falling on Chen Lan, and asked, "I just heard your voice, it sounded a bit familiar."
For some reason, Chen Lan’s voice sounded a bit familiar to her, as if she had heard it somewhere before.
Upon hearing this, Chen Lan’s heart suddenly shuddered.
Damn, no way, can she recognize me by my voice?
He remembered having a late-night call with Gu Ying once; what was it about back then?
Gu Ying said she was scolded by her dad, feeling very unhappy, couldn’t sleep, and wanted to chat with him, so she asked for his phone number.
They were both young at the time, he was still in middle school, so he sneaked into the bathroom to call Gu Ying.
But he had gone through the voice-changing period by now, and she could still recognize it?
This is a bit too unbelievable.
"Maybe I’m overthinking it." Gu Ying shook her head, not saying much more.
"Fairy, I just heard you say, are you the companion of Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable?" Luo Tao asked daringly.
They had heard it clearly just now.
"Yes, I am the Misty Fairy. I came to Qin City to find Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable. I’ll tell you a secret, Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable is from Qin City." Gu Ying said this with an inadvertent smile, looking very cute.
Seeing this, Chen Lan was stunned for a moment.
Misty Fairy wants so much to find him, what on earth did he do to make such a girl so focused on him?
Could it be just because of his current identity?
"Fairy, are you so sure Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable will like you?" Chen Lan asked instinctively.
As soon as these words came out, everyone around was shocked, looking at Chen Lan in horror.
Is Teacher Chen courting death?
He dared to ask that question.
This is a Tribulation Stage Fairy!
Even Luo Tao’s back was drenched in sweat, what madness had possessed Lao Chen?
If they offended this Fairy, they would all be doomed!
Gu Ying was taken aback but didn’t get angry, instead, she raised her little fist with high morale and said confidently, "I’m naturally beautiful. I don’t believe I can’t charm that Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable. If he really doesn’t like me, I’ll just leave."
Hearing this, Chen Lan laughed, "Then I wish the Fairy success in all her wishes!"
"Okay, thank you. I’ll remember you. When the time comes, we’ll have a big banquet and definitely invite you." Gu Ying said generously, patting her chest.
Chen Lan was full of embarrassment, are you inviting me to my own wedding banquet?
"Alright, thank you." Chen Lan smiled reluctantly.
After a while, Misty Fairy left.
But she didn’t leave Qin City, still wandering nearby.
She was still looking for Chen Lan.
"Damn, Lao Chen, you really are crazy. I was drenched in sweat just now." Luo Tao wiped the sweat off his forehead, almost scared to death by Chen Lan.
He really dared to say that, actually asking such a question. Luckily, the Fairy isn’t someone with a bad temper.
Otherwise, they would have been quickly killed.
"Haha, it’s fine, the Fairy is very magnanimous." Chen Lan laughed it off evasively.
"Don’t do this next time, we can’t afford to offend these bigwigs." Luo Tao still had lingering fears.
"Okay." Chen Lan nodded.
Luo Tao was concerned about him; the question he asked was indeed easy to offend.
If Misty Fairy really had a bad temper, she would have acted against him.
"Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Where are we going next?" Luo Tao asked.
"Continue hunting Demon Beasts. I see you are about to break through, fighting can make people grow faster." Chen Lan said casually.
Then, he led the others to other areas to continue slaying Demon Beasts.
In the meantime, he instructed Heavenly Dao to complete a task, which was to eliminate those small organizations impersonating his name to swindle and bully others.
He couldn’t be bothered to do it himself.
Originally, he didn’t want to deal with it, but those people bullied him.
If it were someone else, they might have been so scared just hearing his name that they wouldn’t dare act.
Heavenly Dao quickly took action, casually sending down dozens of heavenly thunders, making those impersonators instantly perish.
Chen Lan was very satisfied; Heavenly Dao was great, obedient.
...
A day passed quickly.
The next day.
The Maintenance Department officials posted a message.
[Tomorrow afternoon, there will be a global martial arts tournament, where various countries will send representatives.]
[Currently, the following countries are participating in the tournament: Huaxia, Superpower Empire, Asan Country (Buddha Country), Ninja Empire, Pharaoh Country... and many more countries.]
[Each country needs to offer rewards of equal value, and the winner can take all of them.]
[Our country is providing a low-grade postnatal Supreme Treasure, Superpower Empire is providing the Hammer of Thor, Buddha Country is providing the Buddha’s Six Relics, Ninja Empire is providing the Death God’s Notebook, Pharaoh Country is providing the Mummy’s Heart... and many more country rewards.]
[All rewards have been confirmed, with similar practicality and similar value, and will be broadcast globally.]
The post was quickly pinned to the top.
"Damn, what’s happening here, a global martial arts tournament, is it a battle royale?"
"Can they really beat us? We are cultivators, any Mahayana Stage we send can wipe them all out, right?"
"I know what the country’s intention is, it’s to test the strength of other countries, right?"
"That’s good, it’s going to be an excellent show, I really don’t know what the other countries are like."
"Yes, I also think it’s a good thing, at least it lets us know the difference in strength."
Most people think the global martial arts tournament is a great thing.
Through this stage, people can see the strength gap, which can either give peace of mind or a sense of crisis.
Humans only seek ways to strengthen themselves when they feel a sense of crisis, to escape it.
Only by seeing the gap clearly will the weaker countries naturally strive to become stronger.
In this, apart from Asan Country, the sovereigns of several other countries were actually his people.
This is actually part of his plan!
He intends to utilize this martial arts tournament to make Huaxia’s people realize the current crisis, to unleash their potential, and to practice desperately.
Otherwise, everyone might feel at ease thinking he’s around, leading them to become lazy.
People won’t grow unless they are pushed.
Only when they feel pressure will they strive to become stronger.
