Chapter 422 What? Not enough team members, the mentor is warming up???_1

Meng Yiran blinked in surprise the moment she saw Luo Yu.

In her memory, she seemed to have never had any interaction with this person at all.

Why would he help her?

On the stage, Tang San noticed this scene and shouted towards Luo Yu.

"Luo Yu, you wouldn't happen to be the so-called lover of this woman, would you."

"This woman was just bragging about how amazing her lover is, hahaha."

Before Luo Yu could speak, Meng Yiran's beautiful eyes widened as she glared at Tang San.

"You, stop spouting nonsense."

"My lover couldn't make it to the competition this time, otherwise, he would certainly beat you to a pulp right there and then."

"Oh?"

Tang San raised his eyebrow, his eyes narrowing into slits, as his face grew cold.

"Some lover, I think you just made that up to redeem your crushed dignity."

A playful smirk appeared on Luo Yu's lips.

Turning to Meng Yiran, he asked:

"May I ask miss, what is your lover's name?"

Meng Yiran's face turned red.

"I…"

"I don't know his name."

Tang San let out a cold laugh.

"Some nobody, and you dare to compare him to me? And you say I'm talking nonsense."

Luo Yu glanced at him sidelong.

"Got a sharp tongue?"

"Didn't you see the lady is talking to me?"

Upon hearing Luo Yu boldly speaking up for her, Meng Yiran inexplicably felt herself warming up to him.

"That…actually, my lover once saved me."

"He's really strong, not someone that guy on stage can compare to."

Laughing snidely, Tang San clearly didn't believe a word.

Luo Yu's smile grew wider, a hint of amusement in his expression.

"Miss, I just did a little calculation, and I'm afraid your lover doesn't even know that you fancy him."

"Ah?"

Meng Yiran opened her mouth involuntarily, shock evident as she exclaimed, "How could you possibly know such a private matter about me?"

Luo Yu smiled and pointed with his fingertip.

"Calculated."

Meng Yiran shook her head, "You're guessing, aren't you?"

Luo Yu continued, "Didn't you two meet in the Aquipeia Forest?"

Meng Yiran's mouth fell open, her entire being overcome with shock, utterly dumbfounded.

"How…how could you even know that."

Luo Yu repeated, "Calculated."

"This…"

Doubts began to swirl in Meng Yiran's heart, could this guy actually be so mystical?

A playful smile still on his face, Luo Yu turned his gaze back to Tang San on the stage.

"Xiaosan, I can vouch for her."

"Her lover could grind you into the ground over and over again, leaving you battered and bruised, forcing you to kneel and beg for mercy."

"Huh??"

Tang San was stunned for a moment.

The audience, overhearing their conversation, was also bewildered.

Could there be someone capable of defeating Tang San after he had displayed such earth-shaking prowess?

They all shook their heads, convinced it was all bluster, utterly disbelieving.

In their eyes, Tang San's cultivation with five Soul Rings was already the pinnacle among the younger generation, a limit no one else could surpass.

Especially that dark ten-thousand-year Soul Ring, which still left them astonished to this very moment.

Tang San looked at Luo Yu, his lips curling.

"Creating a figment alongside a woman spewing ridiculous lies. "

"Do you think that'll scare me?"

"Ridiculous."

He vibrated the tip of his spear, pointing it directly at Luo Yu.

"Enough talk."

"I'll have you know I only used thirty percent of my power just now, don't get cold feet on me."

Luo Yu ignored him, choosing instead to turn a blind eye.

He continued to look at Meng Yiran.

"You should go and tend to your injuries."

"What I can tell you is this."

"Your lover will definitely show up, and he will certainly pummel this guy."

"Hm?"

Meng Yiran's pretty face was etched with incredulity, looking at Luo Yu in disbelief.

"How can you be so sure, do you know him?"

The beautiful girl's breath quickened with nervousness as she asked:

"Do you know where he is right now?"

"Last time we parted, he disappeared without a word, and I still have so much I want to tell him."

"I really hope to have the chance to see him again."

Luo Yu blinked at her.

"Destiny's secrets cannot be revealed."

"When the time comes, you will surely meet him."

Meng Yiran opened her mouth but eventually nodded.

"Okay!"

"All right."

At this moment, the ignored Tang San had already stormed off the stage, fuming with anger.

His fists were clenched tightly together.

"Just endure a little longer, it won't be long before I run into that guy."

"And soon I shall avenge my humiliation!!"

The surrounding audience's eyes were now all focused on Luo Yu, with continuous speculation.

"What's up with this guy? Isn't he just a cripple? How come all the genius fighters are targeting him?"

"Yeah!"

"Feng Xiaotian, Yu Tianheng, and this terrifying Tang San, why are they all picking a fight with him? He seems so ordinary."

"Enough, don't talk anymore, let's just mourn for the kid."

"Offending all these top-level geniuses at the same time, he probably won't even know how he dies in the end."

"Others come to the competition to fight for first place, but for him to join, I think his goal should be how to survive from the hands of these four geniuses and desperately cling to life."

"Tsk, if I were him, I wouldn't even bother competing, survival is more important."

"Being targeted by such terrifying guys, there's no point in fighting, just hunker down is the smart move."

"To sum it up in one sentence, this guy is doomed to tragedy."

The murmuring voices rose and fell, all expressing their skepticism towards Luo Yu.

After witnessing the invincible strength of Tang San and the others, who would think that Luo Yu, a cripple in a wheelchair, had any chance of winning?

However, A Wu, the A'yin Sisters, and Bi Bidong, the women around Luo Yu, couldn't help but sneer at the lips when they heard these people talking about their man.

A bunch of ignorant mortals, who understand nothing.

Shui Yue'er pouted, her pretty face full of displeasure.

"All of you are betting against Brother Yu?"

"Tang San shocked you all just now, if Brother Yu makes a move, you might have to watch the match on your knees."

Bi Bidong leaned in close to Luo Yu's ear.

"You stinky man, explain what's going on with that girl just now."

"She must remember what you really look like, right?"

"Cough, cough."

Luo Yu coughed, "Don't misunderstand, I just lent her a hand casually."

"Never thought that I would be remembered for it."

"Did you flirt with that girl?" Bi Bidong looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

"No," Luo Yu shook his head, "I really haven't this time, I'm innocent!!"

Bi Bidong's phoenix eyes flashed with suspicion as the announcer's voice came from the stage.

"Tianshui Academy versus Xiangjiazong team, please come onto the stage."

The seven from Xiangjiazong leaped high from below and crashed onto the stage.

Boom!

The ground trembled for a moment.

The seven men stood tall like towers, their muscular bodies bulging, as if containing explosive power in every inch of muscle.

The audience held their breath, intimidated by Xiangjiazong's domineering presence.

Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, and Xue Wu of Tianshui Academy leapt gracefully onto the stage like fairies.

The two sides faced off.

Huyan Li led the charge at the front, his eyes brimming with confidence.

He motivated in a deep voice, "Brothers, don't be timid, that one's a teacher and can't go up on the stage."

His teammates behind him responded, "They're just seven delicate girls, we brothers aren't afraid!!"

"Their teacher even said he wouldn't mind if we hurt them in the match, brothers, let's go all out and just do it!!"

"Damn!"

All seven cried out together, their blood and spirits surging.

Huyan Li's confidence was sky-high, as his gaze swept towards Tianshui Academy.

"Eh?"

"Why did you only send up six people, where's the seventh?"

"He's at the back," Shui Yue'er said with a smile.

"Ah?"

Huyan Li was stunned.

"Clack, clack!!"

The sound of the wheelchair's wheels echoed, and all of Xiangjiazong's team members turned their gaze toward it.

They saw Luo Yu on the wheelchair, that nightmare-like figure.

"He... he... how did he get up here!"

Huyan Li's entire body broke out in goosebumps, and cold sweat profusely poured out.

A frantic cry went out.

"Referee, referee!!"

"They're breaking the rules, they're breaking the rules on the other side!!"

"How can their coach warm up and come onto the stage!!!"
