Chapter 391: Was Out of the Question

“Nalan Lengling, Wang Cheng, and Wang Cui, we’ve decided on two rounds for the joint competition this time. The first round is the group battle. Only two of you will be needed in this round. The key point is the second round.”

Looking at Nalan Lengling and the other two who came late, the great elder was neither happy nor sad, he continued, “In the second round, you and the other disciples will have to join hands to enter the secret realm to obtain the Blood Source Ore. The party with the most Blood Source Ore will be able to extract 20% of the Blood Source Ore from the other two parties. This is the key that you should pay attention to.

“Logically speaking, the task of commanding should be given to Wang Hongyu. After all, his cultivation is the highest. However, I have to remind the three of you that in the secret realm, there are actually four factions. The Fengyue and Hualin factions, the Fire faction, and the three of you.

“The reason is simple. Firstly, Wang Hongyu is an autocratic and domineering person. He doesn’t listen to others’ opinions and is reckless. Therefore, if he were to command, he would definitely lose.

“Secondly, after obtaining the Blood Source Ore, the person who commanded the battle will assign people to refine it. In other words, even if you are in the same group as him, even if you’ve obtained the Blood Source Ore, it might not be assigned to you.

“Speaking of this, you should understand what I mean. Don’t, don’t place your hopes on Wang Hongyu. Do you understand?”

“Understood, master.”

Nalan Lengling nodded. However, she saw Victor standing rooted to the ground from the corner of her eyes and hurriedly nudged him.

“It’s like this, master. I have few questions. Suppose we secretly hid a certain amount of Blood Source Ore. Will we be discovered? If you can monitor everything that we do in the secret realm, then what you’ve just said is meaningless.”

“You are right. We can see everything that you do in the secret realm. You need to think about how to achieve the greatest benefit for yourselves.”

“Alright, I understand. Then, the second question. If we don’t listen to Wang Hongyu’s command, what will our fate be?

“The fate that I am referring to is in the secret realm. Will he attack us?”

“We can’t rule out this possibility.”

“Sigh… one last question. If necessary, can I kill him?”

“I’m sorry, but you can’t.”

The great elder shook his head helplessly.

He had no choice. He knew what Victor was worried about, but at the same time, he was unable to provide them with any help.

“To be honest, master, what you’ve told us is basically meaningless. Our actions are monitored, we can’t go against and attack him either. It’s difficult to seize power, and even more difficult to win.”

“I believe that you’ll find a way.”

“Then we can only try our best.”

“I didn’t misjudge you.”

The great elder patted Victor’s shoulder with gratification and handed him a silk bag, saying, “After entering the secret realm, if you encounter a problem that can’t be solved, open it.”

“Yes, master.”

Victor took the silk bag and turned to look at Lian Hua and Nalan Lengling, saying, “Let’s not talk about Wang Hongyu. Among us, I’ll be in command. Any objections?”

The two girls did not have any objections and nodded.

“Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll leave the group battle to you and senior sister.”

Hearing this, Lian Hua was a little confused.

It was not that she could not go on stage, but why her?

“In fact, our chances of winning in this group battle are very small. It can be said to be very low. I have carefully observed the disciples that the great elder has mentioned. It is not an exaggeration to say that a random found person could defeat Wang Hongyu without a problem.

“Senior sister, are you confident that you can defeat Wang Hongyu?”

“Why are you saying all this all of a sudden? Although I don’t want to admit it, I’m not his match.”

“You see, since we can’t even defeat them, why do we have to face them head-on? We just need to show up. If we’re not strong enough, we can use our intelligence. Master, what do you think?”

They definitely had to ask about the great elder’s opinion. If he agreed to give up on the group battle, then it would be simple. They could just give up on the tournament, not caring about winning or losing.

So what if he damaged his reputation?

He would not lose anything.

However, if the great elder did not agree with Victor’s opinion, then there was nothing he could do. He could only bite the bullet.

Fortunately, the great elder and Victor had similar thoughts.

In the face of a direct confrontation of strength, wisdom was useless. Therefore, giving up was the best choice.

“However, if you can win, you have to win as much as possible. Otherwise, I have no place to put my old face…”

“Master! How can you disregard the safety of your disciples for the sake of your face!”

“…”

“Come on, master. Listen to me. Put down your face and everything else. In the second round, your disciples will give you a beautiful victory. How about that?”

“This… Alright…”

There was no point in forcing his disciples, so the great elder could only agree.

“That’s easy then. In the group battle, we’ll just admit defeat without fighting them. This way, we can create a sense of mystery. Of course, if senior sister has the confidence to win, she can fight as she pleases.

“As for the second round, I have my own brilliant plan.”

“Wang Cheng, the key to the second round is not whether we win or lose, but whether we can obtain more Blood Source Ores,” the great elder kindly reminded.

“Master! How can you disregard your disciple’s face for the sake of the Blood Source Ores! Senior sister has always been suppressed by that b*stard Wang Hongyu, this is a good opportunity to take them down!

“Didn’t master say that apart from us, there will be inner sect disciples participating? Since others will be here, there will definitely be conflicts!

“As the ancient saying goes, the problem lies not in the scarcity of resources, but in the uneven distribution. That b*stard Wang Hongyu will definitely not reward them according to their merits. This is the key to victory!”

“Didn’t you just say…”

“Master, you are too narrow-minded. Think out of the box! You are highly respected. So what if you get slapped in the face once? Moreover, when it comes to military strategy, fighting when you can’t win is an idiotic thing to do.

“However, the second round is different. That b*stard Wang Hongyu has bullied senior sister for so long. I definitely want to get back at him.”

“Alright, alright, alright. It’s up to you, right? I don’t care anymore.”

The great elder waved his hand helplessly and decided to leave everything to Victor.

He had no choice. This disciple of his was too talkative. He was simply like an old cow wearing a bra. One set after another, he could not win the argument, and he could not fight either. He might as well just ignore him and feel calmer.

“Master, the group battle starts tomorrow, right?”

“Yes. The second round will start three days after the group battle ends.”

“Alright, you just wait and see!”

However, the moment Victor walked out of the elder’s pavilion happily, the smile on his face froze and was replaced by an imperceptible solemnity.
