"Me?" Zhou Qixi looked surprised.

"That's right. Luo Shen looked at Zhou Qixi with a meaningful smile on his face, "There are a lot of dark horses that have emerged in this ranking battle, and they all suddenly showed their two-star level strength in the competition, but they already had the strength of a one-star peak before, but Zhou Qixi, you, showed only one-star strength to the outside world before the competition." ”

"Moreover, your performance in the martial arts examination and entrance test is also very ordinary, and no one expected your strength to improve so quickly. ”

"Yes, is this so?" Zhou Qixi was a little flustered for some reason.

"But compared to Ah Mu, it's a bit of a trivial. Luo Shen suddenly changed his words.

"No, that's right!"

Zhou Qixi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and glanced at Du Mu gratefully.

Du Mu: "??"

Noticing Du Mu's doubts, Zhou Qixi hurriedly said, "No, I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that there was something to do, so I left first." ”

With that, he nodded apologetically to the two of them, turned around and walked away.

"It's a funny girl. ”

Looking at the back of Zhou Qixi leaving, Luo Shen said suddenly.

Du Mu looked at him and teased, "What's the matter?

"......" Luo Shen looked at Du Mu with a strange expression, and then glanced at Zhou Qixi in the distance, revealing a somewhat sympathetic gaze.

"Speaking of which, Amu, what type of girls do you like?"

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

"It's just curious. ”

"Hmm...... Suddenly, it was hard to say clearly......" Du Mu touched his chin and fell into a deep groan.

Seeing this, Luo Shen said tentatively: "Like the type of Senior Sister Du Shuang?"

"That's it!" Du Mu was stunned, and then slapped his palm as if he had suddenly realized.

“......”

After lunch, Du Mu received a notification message from the background of the game.

The round of 16 qualifiers were held at 2 p.m., and this time his opponent was a student named Lotte.

Exiting from the backstage, Du Mu opened the list of two-star martial arts students and checked it, and sure enough, he saw the name Lotte on it.

"Two-star level opponent ......"

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the game started on time.

The 16 matches were divided into two rounds, Du Mu was still scheduled in the first round, while Luo Shen was in the second round.

When he came to the area of the game, the opponent had not yet arrived, but Du Mu was surprised to find that this time it was still the third-grade senior sister who served as the referee.

What a coincidence.

Du Mu and the third-grade senior sister nodded to each other, and they said hello.

After a while, a young man walked up, came to stand seven or eight meters opposite Du Mu, and squinted at him.

Du Mu's brows suddenly furrowed.

His perceptual attributes had already reached D-level, and he had always been very sensitive to intangible things such as malice or danger, and he could easily feel the malice contained in the young man's gaze.

It's not the will to fight, or the obsession with winning or losing, but the real malice!

"There are quirks. ”

Du Mu secretly paid attention in his heart, observed carefully, and found that Lotte would look vaguely at the location of the audience from time to time.

Following his line of sight, Du Mu found a familiar figure in the audience.

Cao Haoxuan!

"I see, it's a ghost from the Shepherd Society!" Du Mu sneered in his heart, he didn't expect that the first two-star martial artist he faced was the enemy sent by the Shepherd Society.

On the other side, Lotte tightened the long sword in his hand.

He was not a member of the Shepherd's Society, and he had not even been in contact with the Shepherd's Society before, but he knew that there was such a large society.

However, just two hours ago, when he received a background message notification and learned that his opponent was actually Du Mu, who had been in the limelight recently, he was worried and casually complained to a few friends, and it didn't take long for the people from the Shepherd Club to find him.

The leader is Cao Haoxuan!

Cao Haoxuan promised him that as long as he could win Du Mu in the game, he would provide him with materials worth 300 points.

Even if you can't win, as long as Du Mu can be injured to a certain extent and can't participate in tomorrow's game in good condition, you can also get materials worth 100 points.

100 points!

It is undoubtedly a lot of money for a first-year student, and Lotte was instantly moved.

Speaking from his heart, he was completely unconfident that he had won Du Mu, after all, the latter was a strong man who could even kill the peak of a star with one move empty-handed, even if he was a two-star martial artist, he was not sure that he could win the other party.

Since there is little hope of winning, it is better to take the opportunity to make a profit.

In view of this, Lotte only hesitated for half a minute before agreeing to the deal proposed by Cao Haoxuan.

"It's hopeless to beat Du Mu, but it's not difficult to get him injured!"

Lotte who didn't know that the eye contact between himself and Cao Haoxuan had been seen by Du Mu in his eyes, took a deep breath and looked at Du Mu fixedly, and the greed and ruthlessness in his eyes flashed.

Feeling the malice in the other party's sight, a sneer slowly appeared on the corner of Du Mu's mouth.

With the sound of a cold electronic prompt, Lotte put on a fighting posture with a solemn expression, while Du Mu stood in place casually.

At the moment when the countdown ended, Lotte's eyes froze, and a circle of dust suddenly exploded under his feet, and the whole person rushed forward like a shuttle, and the long sword was raised halfway, and the moment it swept in front of Du Mu, it was slashed down.

At the same time as the attack, Lotte was very vigilant in his heart.

For this battle, he specially looked for the video of Du Mu's last game and watched it, knowing that the opponent's speed was very amazing, and he might even have a strong body martial art.

With Du Mu's speed, his attack was likely to be dodged.

Therefore, this blow only used six points of force, and there was a back move hidden behind it, as long as Du Mu dodged, he could immediately change his move and change direction, and then launch a thunderous attack.

However, the development of the situation was not as he expected, in the face of the falling long sword, Du Mu actually did not dodge or dodge, let the attack be on the body, and just looked at him indifferently.

This scene made Lotte suspicious, but the attack could not be stopped, seeing this, he had to grit his teeth and increase his strength and cut it down with all his might.

While!

With a crisp resonance of gold and iron, the sharp sword blade actually paused on the surface of Du Mu's body, and the surface of the latter's skin seemed to be covered with a layer of iron clothing, and for a while, he actually blocked Lotte's sword attack with his body.

The audience suddenly erupted in a burst of exclamations!

Lotte was also stunned.

"It's my turn!"

An indifferent voice woke him up, and when Lotte looked up, he saw the corners of Du Mu's mouth grinning, revealing a slightly hideous smile, and then his index finger poked out, hitting his chest like lightning.

Lotte suddenly shook as if he had been struck by lightning, screamed and took a few steps back, clutching his chest and kneeling on the ground, unable to stand up for a long time.

The third-grade senior sister not far away frowned and observed Lotte for a while, and after determining that the latter had just lost her combat effectiveness, she raised her hand and announced that Du Mu had won.

There was an uproar in the audience.

Many people looked suspicious.

In their opinion, Du Mu was like a joke, resisting Lotte's blow with his flesh unharmed, and then poked him in the chest like a dragonfly, and the latter screamed and retreated, falling to the ground softly.

The whole process was so electric that I couldn't see more movements at all.

"What's going on?

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

"It's too strong! Whether it's a one-star martial artist or a two-star martial artist, it only uses one move!"

In the midst of the discussion, Du Mu glanced at Lotte coldly and slowly withdrew his fingers.

He was very measured, after all, it was just a duel, not a life-and-death fight, so this finger gun was not aimed at Lotte's heart.

Even so, with the power of a finger gun comparable to that of a bullet, even if it is not critical, if it is not critical, it will be seriously injured and immediately lose its combat effectiveness.

For the guy sent by the Shepherd Society, Du Mu has no intention of keeping his hands, and he will definitely make him suffer a little.

"Damn it!"

In the audience, Cao Haoxuan slammed down the handrail, looking at Du Mu on the field with a gloomy face, with a mixture of anger, fear and panic in his heart.

......

Walking down from the field, Du Mu did not leave, but found a seat, and watched the duel on the screen while waiting for the end of the Luo Shen competition.

Next to the seat he was sitting on was a first-grade girl, who happened to recognize his appearance, and her expression became excited.

"You're Du Mu, right? I just watched your game!

Du Mu was stunned when he heard this.

Isn't it exciting? He's got a poke and he gets rid of his opponent!

After a moment of silence, he nodded to the other party: "Thank you." ”

Let's just keep watching the game.

Seeing this scene, the girl was slightly disappointed, but she still couldn't help but didn't bother, just looked at Du Mu with her eyes frequently.

On the field, the vast majority of the game is still going on.

Du Mu swept around and found that Zhou Qixi was also among them.

Her opponent in this game is also a two-star martial artist, and her strength does not seem to be much weaker than her, and the battle is very close.

It is worth mentioning that Zhou Qixi's weapon is a fiery red spear.

In Du Mu's impression, except for Zhou Qixi, he had almost never seen any students use this kind of weapon, more than ninety percent of the students of Xingluo Academy used swords, and there were also those who specialized in sticks and physical arts, but spears were really rare.

A spear that has been used for a lifetime, like a spear, requires persistent cultivation to see its power, and it is not a good choice for the Xingluo students who are fiercely competitive and will be left behind by the large army if they slack off.

"Maybe it's because of her cultivation of spear skills, so her early strength progress was so slow, and she didn't catch up until recently. Du Mu secretly guessed.

And just as he was pondering, the game on the field had already been decided, and Zhou Qixi finally won the victory by directly pulling the opponent out of the competition area with a powerful gun.

The panting girl walked off the field to the sound of cheers as she looked at the other playing areas, as if looking for something.

After a few moments, when the search was fruitless, she left the playing field with her head slightly bowed.

As the first round ended, half an hour later, the second round officially began.

Du Mu looked fixedly, and many figures slowly walked from the waiting area, and there were many familiar figures among them.

Luo Shen, Chi Xiangzhen, Gu Huaqing, and Lei Kai!
