And Ning Fengzhi was sent flying off the stage by the blast of air.
He lay on the ground, lifted his head, and said with a face full of relief, "Luckily, I had cast a defensive soul skill on myself beforehand; otherwise, I would have absolutely been battered to a pulp."
But Ning Fengzhi suddenly frowned, feeling something sticky in the palm of his hand.
He looked at his hand and was instantly petrified.
Zhu Zhuyun came over, pulling Little Snail with an embarrassed face, "I'm so sorry, Sect Master Ning. Little Snail couldn't hold it in today and relieved itself right here, what unfortunate timing..."
Ning Fengzhi looked at the snail in front of him with a stiff expression.
The snail lazily glanced at him, "Meow~", it then lifted its tail and let out a fart towards Ning Fengzhi's cheek before slowly moving away.
"I'm...I'm so sorry!"
Zhu Zhuyun apologized frantically once again; she no longer dared to take Little Snail for a walk, so she quickly fled with it in her arms.
...
Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin stood on the stage, waiting listlessly for their awards.
Lin Yi looked at the panel.
[Blood Loss: 401363]
[Remaining Blood: 899928023763]
[Damage Level: Red Mid-Level (Downgraded)]
[Random Reward: No reward was randomly selected]
[Host Award: No critical hit bonus, compensating the host with a hundred-thousand-year complete set of soul bones]
Lin Yi was dumbfounded.
No way... he wanted to have a laugh first—damn, there were too many laughable points in this attack!
This damage, these rewards...truly worthy of a Luck Value of negative one thousand!
Lin Yi looked at Ning Fengzhi with a peculiar expression and said, "The damage is 401363, and your last attack had a damage of exactly 401364, so because this attack is one drop of blood less in damage, the reward quality was downgraded."
Ning Fengzhi twitched the corners of his mouth, he really was that unlucky...
He wanted to see just how unlucky he could get!
"Senior, just tell me what the reward is!"
Ning Fengzhi asked indignantly.
"There is no reward."
Ning Fengzhi: ?
"To be precise, no reward was randomly selected. There are at least ten thousand rewards in the Red Intermediate reward pool, but there's also a one in a million chance of hitting an empty slot, which means no reward at all."
Ning Fengzhi took a few steps back as if resigned to his fate.
My god, one in a million, he actually encountered such odds, his misfortune was truly thorough!
No, he refused to give up! Ning Fengzhi's gaze was resolute.
"Senior, I request a second attack!"
Another attack?
Lin Yi was afraid he'd run out of fingers to count his hundred-thousand-year soul bones!
The System had gotten smart; whenever it couldn't produce a critical hit reward, it learnt to appease the host with hundred-thousand-year soul bones.
Well, if Ning Fengzhi wanted a second go, then so be it.
Lin Yi couldn't be more welcoming to someone wanting to be a Lottery Shield.
"Sure."
Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi once again stood far apart from each other.
Ning Fengzhi's blood surged; he refused to believe that today he couldn't even get a golden soul coin as a reward.
The Seven Kills Sword was unsheathed, and Ning Fengzhi also summoned the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, promptly casting a defensive boost on himself.
"Huh?"
Chen Xin suddenly let out a surprised gasp.
Ning Fengzhi looked over and saw that no matter how Chen Xin tried to raise the sword, the Seven Kills Sword wouldn't come out of its sheath.
What's going on? This is strange; this has never happened before, Chen Xin muttered to himself.
Ning Fengzhi had already guessed the outcome. Good heavens, he was so unlucky that he couldn't even launch an attack?
No, he didn't believe in curses; he must get a reward today, no matter what it was!
"What's wrong, Uncle Jian?!"
Ning Fengzhi walked over to Chen Xin with a menacing air.
"Sect Master, the Seven Kills Sword won't come out!"
Chen Xin was panicking too; he simply grasped the hilt of the sword and pulled hard outward.
"Let me have a look."
Ning Fengzhi leaned in, and suddenly there was a "snap" sound, Chen Xin easily pulled out the sword, but his elbow once again brutally hit Ning Fengzhi's recently injured nose.
Clutching his nose, which had started bleeding again, Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Xin in shock, stepping back incrementally.
"Uncle Jian..."
"Sect Master, I... It really wouldn't come out just now! But as soon as you approached, it suddenly came out again! You have to believe me!"
Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath... and silently returned to his seat.
Luck Value negative a thousand, huh?! Damn!
If Uncle Jian can't attack again, then I'll attack myself!
But Chen Xin's subsequent attacks went smoothly.
This time, he directly used his sixth soul skill, Myriad Swords Return to Origin!
The snow-white Seven Kills Sword under Chen Xin's control instantly transformed into countless floating sword blades in mid-air, their piercing hums resonating from all directions.
Chen Xin narrowed his eyes, pointed with his sword, and all the Seven Kills Swords shot towards Lin Yi as if bees returning to their hive, creating numerous sounds of metal collision.
Meanwhile, Ning Fengzhi completely ignored the scene before him, continuously muttering to himself:
"Seven Treasures well-known, four to command, four to command, four to command..."
Without even thinking, one knew the upcoming Damage Rebound would be vicious, so it was best to stack up the defense as much as possible, as much as possible.
Realizing the attack was over, Ning Fengzhi immediately tensed up, quickly turned, and dove towards the audience below to try dodging the pursuit of the Damage Rebound.
He lay on the ground quivering for a while, but there was no movement behind him.
Ning Fengzhi turned his head in confusion, only to find that Lin Yi on stage looked somewhat strange as well.
"...There was no Damage Rebound this time, Sect Master Ning, it seems you jumped for nothing."
Lin Yi's mouth twitched.
Nani?!
I was so well-prepared, and it turns out... you're kidding me!
At that moment, Ning Fengzhi felt a warmth on the back of his hand. He turned to look and suddenly saw a little teddy bear with its hind legs raised, peeing on his right hand.
And the Little Golden Crocodile stood by, holding the leash, staring dumbfounded at the scene.
"It was Little Tai Tai who chose to pee here on its own, not me..."
The little guy said seriously. This teddy dog was a pet he got from the Pet Blind Box, obtained at the same time as Mosla.
"Ah—"
Ning Fengzhi collapsed!
Left hand snail poop, right hand teddy pee! Can you people please take care of your pets!
Don't you know not to relieve themselves anywhere?!
...
Ning Fengzhi stood on the stage, looking haggard, waiting together with Chen Xin for Lin Yi to draw prizes.
Not okay, I must get a reward, as compensation for my mental damage... Ning Fengzhi silently prayed in his heart.
Lin Yi sighed and looked at the panel.
[Blood loss: 446783]
[Remaining health: 899927583764]
[Damage Level: Red (High-Level)]
[Random Reward: Wish Grand Roulette*1]
[Host Reward: Wish Grand Roulette*3]
A new Big Wheel reward?
Lin Yi glanced at the System's note with a curl of his lips, suddenly feeling that The Big Wheel seemed quite interesting.
He said to Ning Fengzhi, "The damage is 446783, Red Advanced injury, and the reward you get is a brand-new Big Wheel reward."
Ning Fengzhi's expression changed.
A person whose luck plunged to the core of the earth getting a reward that requires luck, what it implies must be self-evident already.
Ning Fengzhi's face darkened, his heart void of any anticipation.
Still, he went through the motions and asked, "Senior, what kind of Big Wheel is this?"
"Wish Grand Roulette."
Lin Yi raised the red light orb in his hand, tossed it into the air, and it rapidly transformed into a huge Big Wheel suspended in midair.
"Wishes?"
"This Big Wheel contains all the beautiful wishes of the men present. Whichever person's wish you draw, it will come true for you."
Lin Yi explained.
He thought this reward was quite good, The Big Wheel was even specially set to cater to Ning Fengzhi's gender, singularly including the wishes of men.
The wishes of men, they are quite uniform, nothing but power, money, sex, strength.
Ning Fengzhi obviously realized this too, and his expression immediately turned expectant.
Wishes should of course be positive, there couldn't be any negative wishes, right?!
To reassure Ning Fengzhi, Lin Yi even added, "Don't worry, it's stipulated here that wishes like suicide, self-harm, and other perverted wishes are excluded; they are all about satisfying one's most basic happiness."
