"What you're doing will destroy a living, breathing human being!"
"Director Long, you can rest assured."
Wu Yuan seemed to have anticipated this, and suddenly approached Long Hengxu mysteriously, saying, "The alliance has already spoken with Yu Longxin and will ensure that your student doesn't suffer a crushing defeat."
"To compensate Su Mo, the league allows him to take any treasure from the Tianhai Treasure Vault after the competition."
"Besides, it's not shameful to lose to a Shrek student."
Hearing Wu Yuan say this, Long Hengxu's expression softened slightly, and he turned to look at Su Mo, "Su Mo, what do you think?"
Looking at the promises made by the middle-aged man, Su Mo smiled.
Although I don't know what's in the Tianhai Treasure Vault, I'm taking it because it's free.
Su Mo held up five fingers towards Wu Yuan, her attitude firm, and said, "Five items. I want to take five items from the Tianhai Treasure Vault."
"No, I can't agree to that!"
Upon hearing that Su Mo wanted to take five items from the Tianhai Treasure Vault, Wu Yuan refused without even thinking.
The Skysea Alliance is indeed wealthy, but the problem is that rare treasures are not so easy to find.
The inferior ones are out of class, and the good ones are too hard to find.
The Tianhai Alliance spent hundreds of years collecting items, but the total number of items collected was only a little over one hundred.
It's absolutely impossible for Su Mo to take all five items at once now.
"Then I'll withdraw from the competition!"
As Su Mo spoke, she turned around, pretending to withdraw from the competition.
Seeing that Su Mo was about to leave, Wu Yuan no longer cared about bargaining with Su Mo. He gritted his teeth and said, "Three items, three at most!"
"can!"
Su Mo agreed without even thinking.
The bargaining just now wasn't about trying to get more money; it was simply to show the Tianhai Alliance officials my stance and clear my name of suspicion regarding my future actions.
As long as he can enter the Tianhai Alliance's treasure vault, Su Mo has a way to move everything inside.
Not only does he disgust himself by helping Yu Longxin, but he also wants to use himself to gain traffic. There's no such thing as a free lunch.
Seeing that Su Mo had agreed, Wu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come with me!"
Wu Yuan led Su Mo toward another entrance to the stadium.
……
In the gymnasium
The Tianhai Stadium, which can accommodate over a million spectators, was already packed to capacity.
From the lowest seats to the suspended stands high above, every seat was filled with people, and the air was thick with unprecedented excitement and restlessness.
The venue, which was divided into dozens of small arenas yesterday, has now been completely transformed.
All the partitions were removed, and the ground was reassembled into a single, massive alloy arena, which from a distance looked like a gleaming silver gladiatorial arena.
Above the arena, dozens of floating soul-guided light screens lit up simultaneously, constantly switching between live footage and scrolling through Su Mo and Yu Longxin's identity information.
"Shrek!!!"
"Shrek!!!"
"Shrek!!!"
In the noisy audience, the shouts of encouragement for Yu Longxin swept across the entire venue like a tsunami.
In this overwhelming wave of energy, the small audience area belonging to Donghai Academy seemed exceptionally small.
The cheers for Su Mo were completely drowned out by the wave of shouts from the crowd, unable to stir up even a ripple.
The 1-1 pool is absolutely outrageous; there's more to come.
Chapter 142 Yu Longxin's Little Schemes
"Na'er, Ming-ge, what are you looking at?"
On Poseidon Island, Yali, who was cleaning her room, looked curiously into the living room.
In the living room, Na'er sat on her little stool, her eyes glued to the television screen watching the live broadcast.
Yunming, meanwhile, lay comfortably on the sofa, watching the live stream with Na'er.
In response to Ya Li's question, Yun Ming lazily turned over and replied casually.
"Isn't this Shen Yi leading the team to the Tianhai Alliance for an exhibition match to liven up the atmosphere?"
"But something happened halfway through, and Sister Yue's disciple, Yu Longxin, was matched up against a local contestant."
"The news of their challenge is causing quite a stir online."
"A fight?"
Yali frowned slightly upon hearing this, then hesitated and said, "If it's just a regular challenge, it shouldn't have blown up this much, right?"
"Who knows."
"Maybe the Tianhai Alliance wants to use this opportunity to make a name for themselves, and they're just stirring things up behind the scenes!"
Yun Ming shrugged, looking indifferent.
Hearing this, Yali nodded gently.
Shrek Academy's reputation is so great that many local academies are eager to ride on its coattails and boost their own profile within the Federation.
Why did Na'er suddenly decide to watch this match?
Yali suddenly turned her head and looked at the silver-haired girl who had been staring intently at the screen since the beginning, afraid of missing a single detail.
Having lived with Na'er for so long, this was the first time Yali had ever seen Na'er watch a match with such a serious expression.
Based on her years of intuition, there must be something wrong here.
Na'er paused for a moment, then gave a sly smile. "Master's wife, this is my secret!"
She had absolutely no interest in these amateur competitions.
But when he saw that the person who fought Yu Longxin came from Donghai Academy, his attitude immediately changed completely.
Even if others don't know Donghai Academy, how could she not know what Donghai Academy is?
That was the academy where her beloved brother, Tang Wulin, studied.
The thought that she might see Tang Wulin in the live broadcast made Na'er hurriedly move a stool and squat in front of the TV, afraid of missing any footage of Tang Wulin appearing.
Just as Yali was about to tease Na'er a little, her peripheral vision inadvertently swept across the TV screen, and she froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.
On the screen, amidst deafening cheers, a very handsome black-haired boy slowly stepped onto the stage, and the director also cooperated by giving Su Mo a close-up of his face.
Upon seeing Su Mo's appearance, Ya Li instinctively widened her clear, bright eyes and instinctively clutched her chest.
Shock, confusion, bewilderment, and nostalgia intertwined on Ya Li's stunningly beautiful face. As if possessed, Ya Li murmured to herself, "How can it be so similar?"
Su Mo's appearance reminded Ya Li of a deceased friend.
Not having heard what Ya Li said, Yun Ming turned around and looked at Ya Li curiously, "Ya Li, what are you saying?"
"without!"
Yali quickly composed herself and shook her head.
Then Yali put down the rag in her hand, untied her apron, and sat down in front of the TV on a small stool, just like Na'er.
"You two are really..."
Looking at the two people, one big and one small, squatting in front of the TV, Yun Ming shook his head helplessly.
……
"All participants are in position. I hereby declare the competition officially open!"
With the referee's whistle, the match between Su Mo and Yu Longxin officially began, and the atmosphere in the arena instantly became heated.
However, neither of them immediately made a move on the stage.
Yu Longxin crossed his arms, looked at Su Mo with an arrogant expression, and said in a loud voice, "Su Mo, do you know?"
"In order to prevent you from losing too badly, your Tianhai Alliance people came to me specifically to beg me to let you 'act' in a show."
"But after thinking it over, I finally felt that since it was a competition, it should be fair and just."
As soon as Yu Longxin finished speaking, the entire room fell into a deathly silence.
The deafening cheers abruptly ceased, leaving only a suffocating silence in the stadium.
None of the spectators present expected that the Tianhai Alliance would be so shameless as to personally interfere with the match.
You should know that they traveled thousands of miles to come here just to witness the brilliance of Shrek's disciples.
The next second, a cacophony of voices erupted like a tidal wave.
"What is he saying?"
"The Tianhai Alliance wants him to go easy on them?"
"It's a cover-up! This is absolutely a cover-up!"
"Shadow!"
"A cover-up!!!"
Someone in the audience shouted first, and the entire audience joined in.
In the command center, Wu Yuan, who was in charge of the competition, turned as black as the bottom of a pot when he saw this scene.
He never expected that Yu Longxin would reveal this matter in public.
"Damn, damn!"
Wu Yuan cursed Yu Longxin's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, but the most important thing right now was to quickly quell the public's anger.
