C77

The first round of the competition continued like a raging fire.

Aside from a few people who had lost their qualifications due to special circumstances, the youths sent by the various families had all successfully entered the top two thousand rankings, which meant that they had obtained the secret realm that was about to open.

Lu Tian Feng and Liu Fei had also entered the top two thousand, and didn't go to the plaza today as they strolled around the Lu family's garden.

The Lu family's artificial garden was very beautiful. It must have taken a lot of effort to design it.

Under the bridge was a clear lake, fishes with different colors swimming freely. Large areas of green lotus leaves and plump lotus flowers were blooming, giving off a clear fragrance. Even when they breathed, the air was fragrant.

"Feng'er, I can see that your mind is wandering today, and you often answer irrelevant questions. From time to time, the color of your face will rise, and I'll honestly say it, did you get tricked by Luo Hao, the little scoundrel, onto a pirate ship?"

Liu Fei whispered into Lu Tianfeng's ear, blowing on it. As a close friend, if she knew that Lu Tianfeng was being very sensitive about things here.

"Of course not."

Her ears couldn't take it anymore, but she remembered the bad things Luo Hao did to her last night. Her lips seemed to still have Luo Hao's scent, and her body turned limp, powerless as she stretched out her hand to support the railing of the bridge.

"Feng Er, are we good friends?"

Liu Fei asked.

"Yeah."

Lu Tianfeng replied.

"Did I tell you about what happened between Luo Hao and I?"

Liu Fei asked again.

"Yes."

Lu Tianfeng replied.

"Tell me what happened between you and Luo Hao."

This time, Liu Fei did not use a question mark, but chose to make it clear, in order to get the truth out of Lu Tianfeng's words.

"Alright."

When she thought about what happened last night, she thought about it for a while, and realized that Liu Fei had pestered him into admitting that something had happened between him and Luo Hao.

"Fine, Fei, how dare you use words to trick me. See if I beat you up or not."

As he spoke, he extended his hand out towards Liu Fei.

"Did Luo Hao capture you here last night? Do you want to take revenge on me today?"

Liu Fei laughed and ran off.

"No, Luo Hao won't capture me here. Ah, so embarrassing. "See if I don't grab you and stitch your mouth shut, see if you continue to speak nonsense in the future."

Lu Tianfeng knew that the words were not appropriate, and his face flushed red as he ran to chase after Liu Fei.

The two girls chased each other, running into the blooming flowers, blending in with the flowers. The flowers were like people's, and people were like flowers as they didn't blossom.

"Everyone, the top two thousand have been created. They are now divided into twenty groups of one hundred each, and are divided into two groups." Everyone, the top two thousand have been created, and are currently divided into twenty groups.

The butler of the Mayor's mansion stood on the high platform and spoke slowly with a calm tone.

The members of the four great families were all paying close attention. Entering the top two thousand would only be a warm-up. The next step would be the important competition. It would also affect how many people from the various great families could enter the secret realm.

"Alright, we will now split into groups. The list will be randomly assigned."

The steward of the City Lord's Mansion ordered people to bring over twenty transparent boxes to the front desk, and then he took the cloth silk with numbers inside the large box containing two thousand people and placed them into boxes one to twenty each, and then he randomly placed two pairs of boxes from each group, producing the names of the groups that were to fight each other.

Luo Hao was divided into the tenth group, which included the Lu Family's Lu Tianlong, Lu Xing, Huang Family's Huang Bei, and Zhu Family's Zhu Ping. Although they were ranked at different levels, and looking at the situation, they were the strongest among all the participants, so none of them were in the same group.

"Group ten, participant for the first round: Luo Hao, # 168; Zhou Mu, # 1487."

When the Huang Family's Huang Dong heard the two words "Luo Hao", he was stunned and his heart went cold. He was really afraid of what would come next, and inwardly, he thought to himself how unlucky he was, with ten groups of people actually being divided with Luo Hao. He could only pray to the heavens that he and Luo Hao would not be placed on the battle list, otherwise, he would only be beaten to death.

Luo Hao and Zhou Mu walked up to Stage 10, and after the judge finished speaking about the competition rules, he asked Ming Dong and Ming Dong whether they could understand, causing Zhou Mu and Ming Dong to nod their heads, and the judge announced that they could begin.

"You are not my opponent. Scram down yourself."

Zhou Mu glanced at Luo Hao, his eyes revealing a look of contempt, there's still going to be more battles, to not fight and to be able to make people yield, and to maintain his stamina to facilitate the following battles, "Really? Since you've walked on stage, you should at least have someone beat you up in order to prevent others from asking how you walked off in the future. Even if you're sent flying, it's still better than walking off the stage on your own accord, don't you think? "

Luo Hao thought that he had never acted tough before, but the other party actually had such a sense of superiority.

"Since you don't know what's good for you, this young master shall fulfill your wish."

Zhou Mu's face darkened as he shouted. A white shadow stood on his back. It was the image of a tiger. Its pupils were not blue and white, but a faint dark red. It was the rarely seen Evil Eyed White Tiger.

Then, he looked at Zhou Mu's eyes, which had turned a dark red as well. They shone with a dazzling, evil light.

"Ah, the Evil Eyed White Tiger martial spirit!"

Someone cried out in surprise. The Evil Eyed White Tiger martial spirit was very rare. Perhaps one in a hundred thousand martial spirits could awaken this martial spirit. It was quite rare. It was no wonder that Zhou Mu attracted his attention as soon as he released his martial spirit.

"Once this Martial Spirit is released, there will be almost no opponents of the same rank and below. It seems that the victor of this match will be Zhou Mu."

The referee on duty was thinking like this.

Many of the spectators had the same conclusion as the judge.

A portion of people had once watched Luo Hao's battle in the first two rounds of the competition. They were filled with anticipation towards the battle that was about to occur, and did not know if they could defeat this special opponent of his.

The reason why Zhou Mu had such a strong sense of superiority towards Luo Hao who was at the same realm as him, was because he relied on the martial spirit that he had awakened. All those whose strength was equal to or lower than his, as long as they looked him in the eyes, would create illusions, and although it was only for a few breaths of time, it was enough for him to seize the initiative in battle. He could also rely on his evil eyes to scratch his opponent, causing him to have no choice but to split his energy to guard against his opponent.

Even those with a higher realm than him would fall if they accidentally made a mistake.

Zhou Mu purposefully shouted out loud, attracting Luo Hao's attention, and their eyes met.

Zhou Mu noticed that Luo Hao's eyes did not show any signs of confusion, but he still stood in place, not moving an inch.

After being stunned for a moment, Zhou Mu tapped the ground with his feet, and disappeared from his original position. He reappeared in mid air and spread out his arms, like an eagle soaring through the sky, he pounced towards Luo Hao, who was the little chicken that he, Zhou Mu, was about to attack.

Zhou Mu was very confident in himself. From the day he had awakened his Martial Spirit until now, he had never failed when he released his Martial Spirit. Although Luo Hao's performance was different from others, he did not think too much about it.

Zhou Mu's attack was less than an arm's distance away from Luo Hao's head, yet Luo Hao seemed to not have noticed, and did not move at all.

The judge on duty shook his head. Indeed, it was as he had expected, Luo Hao had been affected by the other party's evil eyes and did not even have time to react, it was clear who would win and who would lose.

"This Luo Hao was really unlucky to have met Zhou Mu. Without even making a move, he was about to be kicked out of the fighting arena, and truly responded to what he had just said."

The person who spoke thought of what Luo Hao had just said sounded both funny and sympathetic.

"It's not the end yet. It's too early to say such things."

However, a warrior who had seen Luo Hao's competition before could not accept this and retorted.

"Puchi!"

Laughter instantly broke out from below the stage. Everyone looked at the person who spoke with the same expression as if they were looking at a fool.

However, in the next moment — Before their laughter could dissipate, they had already stood there dumbfounded, their smiles frozen on their faces. At the same time, they were also astonished, and their expressions were very beautiful.

When Zhou Mu's attack was just a few punches away from Luo Hao, Luo Hao moved, smiling at Zhou Mu, he casually raised his hand and struck the air, his speed was extremely fast.

Zhou Mu floated in the air, seeing Luo Jie's smile, he felt extremely evil, as though the one with the Evil Eyed White Tiger martial spirit was not him, Zhou Mu, but Luo Hao.

Luo Hao arrived before Zhou Mu and struck Zhou Mu's attack in the air.

Bang!

Shards of stone flew everywhere, and dust flew into the air.

"AHH!"

Below the stage, another group of unlucky fellows were pressed under his body. Before his consciousness went blurry, he finally found out one thing, and that was — — Luo Hao was not enchanted at all, he was just playing with him from the beginning to the end.

When Zhou Mu realized this fact, his head tilted to the side unwillingly and he fainted.

"Haha, haha, this is great."

Some people laughed, but it wasn't from Luo Hao, but rather the warriors who were mocked by others on the stage.

The judge on stage was also startled, only then did he realize, based on Luo Hao's casual palm strike just now, he guessed that Luo Hao was just playing around and did not care at all.

Thinking about it, there was no suspense in this kind of competition. Before the two of them had even started fighting on the stage, they had already decided on who would win and who would lose.

"Luo Hao won with number 168."

The referee walked to the front desk and announced the result of the match.

Luo Hao walked down the stage towards Stage Sixteen where Lu Tianfeng was engaged in a battle.

Today, Lu Tianfeng was wearing a red dress, like a phoenix on fire. He avoided the attacks on the stage, sometimes pushing his palm forward, and sometimes shouting like a fairy that was flying in the air.

Luo Hao looked at Lu Tianfeng who was standing on the stage, and a warm feeling rose in his heart.
