Chapter 102 Top 6 Matches

"Flower, I lost! Waaaaah!"

In a rest room on Longhu Mountain, Lu Linglong was resting her head on the shoulder of her best friend, Zhi Jinhua.

"Linglong, it's just a competition. If you lose, you lose. It's not a big deal. After all, he's just a temporary worker at All-Knowing. Losing to him isn't shameful."

In today's match, Lu Linglong unfortunately lost to her opponent, Wang Zhenqiu, a temporary worker from the Southwest region of Nadutong.

Although what Zhi Jinhua said was not wrong, Lu Linglong always felt that she had a chance to win when she competed with Wang Zhenqiu.

Wang Zhenqiu's methods didn't seem sophisticated; he only used a simple fire-starting technique.

But what seemed like a very ordinary fire-starting technique to Lu Linglong cost her the match.

This made Lu Linglong feel very frustrated.

At this moment, Lu Lin reached out and patted Lu Linglong's head to comfort her.

"Don't worry, I'm here for you. I'll keep winning."

……

The next day, early in the morning.

A new day begins, and the round of 16 of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony will conclude today.

All the players had gathered at the previous meeting point, where a match-up chart for the round of 16 was being displayed on a large screen.

The subsequent matches will continue to be one-on-one, and the matchups for all sixteen players have been finalized.

Everyone can see their opponent in this match and the opponent they might face in the next match.

The sixteen contestants were divided into two halves, and all the competitions were held in one arena.

The eight players in the upper bracket are:

[Biyou Village - Ma Xianhong VS Flamel Academy - Lily]

[Jade Society - Adolf VS Zhuge Qing of the Wuhou School]

[Fish and Dragon Gathering - Lin Qin VS Nathan Island - Alfonso]

[Wudang - Wang Ye VS Behemoth - Bobby]

The lower half is:

[Na Du Tong - Zhang Chulan VS Na Du Tong - Chen Duo]

[Na Du Tong - Feng Baobao VS Lu Jia - Lu Lin]

[Celestial Master's Mansion - Zhang Lingyu VS All-Knowing - Wang Zhenqiu]

[Amazing Monk - Amar VS Tang Clan - Tao Tao]

Zhang Chulan didn't have time to look at the other opponents for the time being; his eyes were fixed on his next opponent.

Na Du Tong - Chen Duo.

Holy crap!!!

Why did my advisor end up with such an opponent?

Even before the competition started, Zhang Zhiwei had told him privately that there would be behind-the-scenes manipulation in the later stages of the competition, and that he shouldn't worry.

He would secretly arrange easy opponents for him.

This...this isn't right, is it? Master.

Chen Duo doesn't look like an ordinary opponent.

Chen Duo's Gu poison is still fresh in Zhang Chulan's memory!

The matchup does seem to be quite favorable to Zhang Chulan, with Wang also in the upper bracket, so he has a good chance of making it out of there.

In the lower half of the bracket, he has two powerful teammates, Feng Baobao and Zhang Lingyu. If they each defeat their opponents, he will win the final victory in the lower half of the bracket.

Then, in the final, he would have a thoroughly enjoyable fixed match with Wang Ye, and the championship of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony would be his.

But can I really get through this first match, Master?

Are you sure I can beat her?

Regardless of what Zhang Chulan thinks, the match schedule has already been released and there's no possibility of changing it. He can only wait and see if he has time to ask Zhang Zhiwei later.

We can only take it one step at a time.

While Zhang Chulan was pondering, the match in the upper bracket had already begun.

Just as Zhang Chulan was about to head to the competition venue, a young Taoist priest suddenly appeared beside him and gently patted him on the shoulder.

“Please come this way, Benefactor Zhang. The Celestial Master has something for you.”

Puzzled, Zhang Chulan looked at Zhang Zhiwei on the stands, only to see him wink at Zhang Chulan.

Understanding immediately, Zhang Chulan told Feng Baobao to go to the competition venue first, and then followed the little Taoist priest.

Led by the young Taoist priest, Zhang Chulan successfully arrived at a small house.

Zhang Zhiwei was already waiting for him in the room.

Upon entering the room, Zhang Chulan performed a deep bow.

"Master, I, Chu Lan, pay my respects."

Zhang Zhiwei stroked his beard and laughed a few times. "You little rascal, get up! I know what you want to ask. Are you worried about how to deal with Chen Duo's Gu poison?"

Zhang Chulan scratched his head sheepishly and chuckled.

"As expected of the old Celestial Master, his guesses are always accurate."

At this point, Zhang Chulan must know that Zhang Zhiwei called him over because he had something good to give him!

Zhang Zhiwei pulled a ring from his pocket, the dark green beads on it dazzlingly bright.

"This is?"

Zhang Chulan accepted the explanation with a puzzled look and asked curiously.

"Don't underestimate this ordinary little ring. The little bead on it is an extraordinary magical artifact with a resounding name - the Poison-Avoiding Bead."

Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing the name.

"Master, you mean this ring can cure poison!"

From the name, Zhang Chulan could easily guess what the true purpose of this bead was.

He just didn't expect Zhang Zhiwei to have prepared this for him.

Zhang Zhiwei nodded and slowly said, "This ring is a magical artifact that I obtained from Longhu Mountain many years ago. It was made by a master craftsman hundreds of years ago."

You know about the Tang Clan's Dan Shi poison, right? He originally crafted this magical artifact in order to create a way to cure the Tang Clan's Dan Shi poison, but unfortunately, he ultimately failed, as the poison of Dan Shi is indeed impossible to cure.

However, it can still neutralize most poisons in the world, including the Gu poison of Miao territory. Previously, it had been gathering dust in my storeroom because it lacked a suitable application; now it finally has a use.

Zhang Chulan held the legendary ring in both hands and asked excitedly.

"So... so you mean you're just going to give me this ring like this, Celestial Master?"

He never expected to be so lucky as to obtain such a magical artifact!

The old Celestial Master is really reliable!

I never expected that they would prepare such a nice thing for him.

"Dream on! You've got quite the appetite, kid! I'm only lending you out for one day. You have to return it to the Celestial Master's Mansion after your competition with Chen Duo is over. It's the property of the Celestial Master's Mansion!"

Zhang Chulan chuckled awkwardly and quickly said, "I understand, I understand, Chulan understands. I will definitely return it to its rightful owner after the competition."

Zhang Zhiwei stroked his beard again and waved to Zhang Chulan.

"Alright, you can go back to the competition venue now. Since you've used the Poison Repellent Bead, remember not to use any other magical artifacts later. Just don't end up like Chen Cheng, who was eliminated for violating the rules."

"understand!"

After Zhang Chulan excitedly agreed, he skipped and hopped out of the room.

Watching Zhang Chulan leave, Zhang Zhiwei's confidence in Zhang Chulan's victory grew even stronger.

However, there was one thing Zhang Zhiwei forgot to tell Zhang Chulan: the detoxification principle of the Poison-Avoiding Bead is to absorb toxins.

It can absorb all the toxins from the environment and the user's body.

However, there is a crucial prerequisite for its absorption of toxins: the user must actively control its absorption.
