Chapter 153, Battle 5 begins, against Zhang Quan.
"You're talking nonsense! My body... what did you use?" Jiang glared angrily at Lu Yunshi, unable to understand why he was now completely powerless.
Lu Yunshi shrugged. "It's nothing really, I just gave you a little something. And judging by the timing, it's just right now."
"Drugs? Impossible, how could you have had the chance to drug me?" Jiang couldn't understand. Lu Yunshi had been chased and beaten by him the whole time, so there was no way he could have had the opportunity to drug him.
But the next second, Jiang thought of that so-called 'opportunity'.
"Those arrows!"
That's right, apart from the arrows that Lu Yunshi painstakingly shot when he was being chased and beaten, he had no other chance.
"Don't worry, it won't cause you any harm. If it were too harmful, you would definitely notice it easily. So it can only be the kind of medicine that is ineffective at first, but will gradually be activated over time and with the surge of your blood when you use your power. The dragons are indeed very strong. I had to look through seven books with Teacher Shangguan before I found what I needed, and then I asked my senior sister and senior brother for help to barely concoct it."
Lu Yunshi said with a wry smile.
It's so tragic. He's been tormented by knowledge for so long that he doesn't even want to watch Little Imperial Uncle anymore.
"Lu Yunshi! Do you think you can win like this?" Jiang still refused to show weakness and waited for an opportunity to come, but how could Lu Yunshi give him an opportunity so easily? He had already seen through the other party's thoughts.
"Delaying time, is that it? Your idea is correct. You'll be free in one minute. I know that better than you. Otherwise, would I have been rambling on for so long? But that one minute has already determined the winner."
As he spoke, Lu Yunshi aimed at Jiang's eyes, drew back his longbow, and stared at the sharp arrowhead that gleamed with a cold light. Jiang was stunned.
"goodbye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yunshi let go. The referee, who had been trembling with fear for a long time, quickly appeared, grabbed the arrow that had just been shot, and then gave Lu Yunshi an annoyed look.
"The battle is over. The victor is... Lu Yunshi!"
The moment the winner was announced, the entire venue fell silent. The unexpected result caused the shouts of Li Hongying and others, along with Long Lingling and a few others, to fill the entire venue.
Lu Yunshi smiled, took the arrow that could still be used again from the referee, and then looked back at Jiang.
"Considering that my reputation has improved a lot because of you, I'll owe you that gold coin for now."
After saying that, Lu Yunshi left, leaving Jiang with only eyes full of resentment and anger.
After returning to his room, Lu Yunshi did not rest immediately, but instead pondered the battle of the next day.
Jiang is the fourth battle. There are twelve battles in total. One person gets a bye to advance, so there are thirteen people left. That means the next battle will determine the top six. If you can pass, then there is no need to fight anymore.
If they can't pass, there will be a tiebreaker to determine the seventh to tenth place.
That's right, Lu Yunshi had no intention of continuing to fight; his ultimate goal was to reach the top ten.
For Lu Yunxi, getting into the top five will definitely not be easy, but getting into the top ten is a sure thing.
With each round of this assessment, Lu Yunshi felt increasingly exhausted, unsure if he had any trump cards left after the next round.
Of course, more importantly, apart from himself and Lu Yunxi, the weakest of the remaining eleven people would not be weaker than Samo.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
A knock suddenly sounded at the door. Lu Yunshi was a little puzzled, but then a thought struck him, and the door opened automatically. He quickly saw the late-night visitor.
"Second brother? Coming over so late at night, aren't you afraid people will misunderstand?"
"Misunderstanding?" Lu Yunshi's words made Xiao He laugh in anger. "You're so carefree, don't you know what kind of enemy you're facing next?"
“No, I think you should know this better than I do. After all, you like to investigate and target enemies whose strength is much greater than yours, so you must have known what you need to know long ago.” Xiao He shook his head, then suddenly took out a pot of wine and placed it in front of Lu Yunshi, pouring a cup for each of them.
"Hey! I was going to comfort you when I heard you lost, but this is how you react? Besides, intelligence itself is a kind of power." Lu Yunshi said, feigning displeasure.
Xiao He nodded and smiled helplessly. "Yes, intelligence is also a kind of power. It's a fact that I lost. I'm here today mainly to remind you to be careful of the guy who beat me. Lin Qingxuan and I both lost to him, but neither of us was able to draw out his full strength."
Lu Yunshi pondered for a while before asking, "If I remember correctly, the person you fought today was from the Holy Clan, right? The number one student on the average student list before? You guys have really bad luck."
"Mm." Xiao He nodded in response. "He's very strong. If you encounter him in the next battle, you'd better admit defeat."
"Will this make you feel better?" Lu Yunshi asked with amusement.
"Bullshit." Xiao He rolled his eyes at Lu Yunshi upon hearing this. "I just didn't want my older brother to lose so badly, because I would lose face too."
The two exchanged a glance, and the only sound in the room was Lu Yunshi tapping his index finger lightly on the table.
After a while, Xiao He suddenly drank the wine in his cup in one gulp. As the bottom of the cup hit the table, his voice also entered Lu Yunshi's ears.
"Never mind, I've delivered the message. If you want to fight, I don't care. But I also have the details of Lin Qingxuan's fight with him. Listen carefully, I'll only say it once. Although you've probably already obtained the video from someone else, it's probably not as good as my account as the person involved."
That night, the two men drank wine under the moonlight and began to discuss academic matters. Lu Yunshi remembered every detail that Xiao He said and even reviewed it in his mind many times.
But no matter which time it was, even if the analysis focused on the strength that person displayed at that moment, Lu Yunshi's current abilities did not result in a victory.
It's safe to say that if he were to face that Holy Race member in the next battle, he would be doomed to defeat.
Fortunately, Lu Yunshi's next enemy was not that person, but an acquaintance.
Zhang Quan!
"Senior Brother Zhang, I didn't expect to see you here." Lu Yunshi looked surprised. Although he knew that Zhang Quan was among the remaining people, he never expected that he and Zhang Quan would have such a connection after six battles.
It's worth mentioning that Senior Brother Zhang was the lucky one who got a bye in the previous round. When Lu Yun learned this, he was quite moved and fantasized that he could also get a bye in this round.
Unfortunately, he simply didn't have that luck and could only fight and kill his way through life.
"Hmph!" Zhang Quan, who had called Lu Yunshi his brother the last time they met, now looked at Lu Yunshi with a face full of resentment, showing no trace of brotherly affection.
