The people from Kunlun Sect finally reached their destination after traveling for half a day. As soon as they arrived, they found the sect master of Wudang Sect, Fang Guozhi, standing at the front gate with a big grin on his face. Behind him, many disciples and elders were standing in front of the big entrance. The exciting thing was that everyone looked like they were twenty to twenty-five years old.
When everyone arrived, both the sect masters greeted each other and walked in without saying a word. It seemed like they had a tactical understanding that only needed a glance for conversing with each other.
Tyler saw this scene and pursed his lips. Before Feng Chao lost his memories, they seemed to have this kind of tactical understanding too. But now…
He sighed and glanced back at the male lead only to find that the latter was already staring at him with a dark expression on his face. He was stunned after seeing this scene before a smile formed on his lips. Did his lover get jealous because he was spending all his traveling time with Shen Qiu?
So that meant even if his senior's emotions were blocked, he could still fall for Tyler without any reason. This thought lifted Tyler's mood instantly as he paused his steps, waiting for his master to walk ahead. After all, in this world, Tyler's identity was the eldest disciple. So he would have to follow his master.
What he didn't know was that Shen Qiu saw his little action, and the latter couldn't help but glare at his senior martial brother out of jealousy. How could his senior see his master like that?! Shen Qiu wanted to make Chang Hong blind!
So after resting for a while, all of them headed to the arena where the competition would be held. An hour later, Tyler and the rest of the Kunlun Sect disciples found themselves sitting at the front row of the stadium-like area. To Tyler, this place seemed as if a vast football stadium with a space in the center covered with the dusty floor.
"Say Sect master Kong Bao, are you still fond of beauties?" The sect master of Wudang Sect asked with a mischievous smile on his lips.
The other person didn't even glance at Fang Guozhi and stared straight at the space before him.
"You're boring as always." Then Fang Guozhi's glance fell upon Feng Chao and his eldest disciples. He was stunned seeing how close they were standing and stroked his chin. Why did he feel like there was an ambiguous air surrounding them? So he directly opened his mouth and said, "Junior Feng, how long do you plan on being single? Find a dual cultivation partner already!"
Tyler choked at these words. It seemed that even during cultivation days, people used to be very shameless. He turned and saw the male lead's lips stretching for a smile as the latter glanced at Tyler and said, "Sect master Fang Guozhi, I don't think you have to worry about my private life."
Why did the male lead look at him like this?! Tyler narrowed his eyes at Feng Chao. This person seemed to have forgotten all about him and had his emotions blocked. Even though Tyler was heartbroken thinking about this, he knew it was probably for the best. Or else, both of them would end up destroying the plots as they had done previously, and his chances of survival in real life would reduce.
But after looking at the male lead's expressions, Tyler frowned. Was the male lead falling for him already?
To be honest, after knowing that both memories and emotions were blocked in this world, Tyler had lost all his hopes. He only wanted to change the roles a little bit to prevent the male lead from falling for the female lead.
But if Feng Chao were to fall for Tyler…
The latter didn't dare to think about this. The chances of the male lead falling for him were negative. How could he have such hope? He forced himself to remain calm and glanced at the ground indifferently. At this time, the stage was set as a cultivator wearing yellow robes walked over and stood at the center.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to thank you for attending the first day of the competition. I'm your host Cao Li." He paused and smiled. "Now, let me explain to you the rules. The competition will be held within three days. On the first day, two people will be randomly selected by the judges from the contestants, and they will fight. After that, the judges will select the top twenty of them after eliminating most participants. But let me tell you, the selection process doesn't depend on whether you have won or not. It's the skills and your ability to judge when you are fighting that counts. And like that, the top four participants will fight in the last round."
Tyler looked at the guy standing on the ground and squinted his eyes. He remembered reading about this character in the system.
Although Cao Li wasn't related to the main storyline, he did play an important role. Part of the reason why the original villain was trapped in the secret realm was because of this host, who looked innocent but was nowhere near it.
It was Cao Li and his team that had a rivalry with the original Chang Hong in the storyline. Soon, the fight broke out just because of a rare spiritual grass that they found in the secret realm. The fight was fierce, and since Chang Hong didn't come with his master, he was easily injured by Cao Li, who was also similar in strength. And thus, Feng Chao's eldest disciple failed to make it in time, and the secret realm closed for another fifty years.
But Tyler still felt something fishy. It seemed as if there was a hidden plot that wasn't revealed by the system. He felt it strange that Chang Hong could be trapped for years just because of a minor injury. He must have taken many treasures with him before going to the realm to heal himself in dire situations.
Chang Hong was three hundred years old. So it was strange to see that he wasn't able to defeat a few cultivators from another sect who were equal in strength with Chang Hong's group.
But before Tyler could think more about this, he felt someone nudging his arms. He glanced and noticed the male lead's eyes at him, staring at him worriedly. Tyler's heart thudded inside his chest at that kind of intense gaze, and he instantly lowered his head to hide his expressions.
This person…even after forgetting everything, the male lead still didn't fail to surprise him. Feng Chao probably knew about Cao Li and his relationship with Chang Hong. So the former must be worried that Tyler would end up getting tensed about the future they would face.
So the male lead deliberately pulled him out of his thoughts after seeing him staring at Cao Li unblinkingly, didn't he?
