Watch out! Something's wrong with this guard.

Chapter 164 No Surrender, Only War! Holy Clan Heaven 1

"What? You can't admit defeat? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Tomorrow, after Lu Yunshi used some nonsense to get Long Lingling a new friend, in the student lounge before the assessment began, he looked at his good brother and made a sound that was hard to understand.

Upon hearing this, Lao Liu gave a wry smile. He turned to look at Lao Qi and Li Hongying and found that the two of them had wandering eyes and looked indifferent, as if it were none of their business. He knew in his heart that there was no hope for them, so he could only say to Lu Yunshi with embarrassment.

"Well, we didn't know beforehand that you wanted to admit defeat, boss. We were just thinking of building up some momentum for you."

"So... all those strange experiences I had at the academy yesterday were your doing?" Lu Yunshi narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous aura.

The sixth brother felt a chill run down his spine, but still nodded and said, "Well, I guess so. With our preparations and publicity, many people already believe that you, Boss, are the chosen one who can change the situation where the academy is suppressed by students from the other four races. Some people even worship you and burn two sticks of incense for you every day. We've made quite a bit of money just from selling these."

"...You..." Lu Yunshi took a deep breath, blinked, and asked, "How much did you earn?"

The sixth brother glanced at the seventh brother and the others, then secretly made a hand gesture to Lu Yunshi. Lu Yunshi understood immediately and smiled with satisfaction, but then his expression changed.

"No, what does that have to do with my inability to surrender?"

"Well... you mean, they completely believe in your abilities, boss, and we've taken this opportunity to launch a lot of little toys for them, like this one, like this one... We've made a lot of money. But if you lose, boss, you'll probably have to refund the money. Losing isn't so bad, it's not a big deal. At most, you'll get a few scoldings, and getting your money back is fine. But judging from the current trend, if you surrender, boss, it won't be as simple as just getting your money back."

"Those who elevated you to the position of 'the chosen one,' are probably all..."

The sixth brother took out Lu Yunshi's portrait one moment and Lu Yunshi's statue the next, and finally said the main reason why they could not surrender.

Lu Yunshi pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then asked, "I only have one question: where do you get the confidence to think I can still win?"

"This..." The sixth brother hesitated for a moment, looking at Lu Yunshi's increasingly dangerous gaze, and finally looked at Li Hongying. "You'll have to ask Fifth Sister. We didn't plan to do this at first, but Fifth Sister said that since you're so awesome, Boss, we must let more people appreciate and admire your heroic demeanor."

The seventh brother nodded quickly and continued speaking in the same vein as the sixth brother.

"That's right, Fifth Sister said a lot, and when we listened to it later, it made sense. We can also make money on the side. Boss, you've won so far with your early-stage Nascent Soul ability, it's not impossible for you to keep winning, so... Anyway, if you want to blame someone, blame Fifth Sister."

"Hongying?" Lu Yunshi looked at Li Hongying, his eyes filled with doubt. "And what are you doing here...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Yunshi sighed and shook his head. "Never mind, if it were you, that's certainly possible."

"Hehe, boss, you know me pretty well, don't you?" Li Hongying said shyly.

"Heh, I'm really finished this time," Lu Yunshi said with a forced smile. "You were right."

"What did you say, boss?" Li Hongying asked.

"It's nothing, I'll try my best this round." Lu Yun sighed, listened to the noisy commotion outside, and turned to walk out.

"Does the boss have a chance to win? He seems a bit unsure of himself." Seeing Lu Yunshi preparing to go on stage, Lao Qi couldn't help but feel a little worried. Actually, they hadn't initially planned to make it that big.

But as word spread from one person to another, it gradually got out of control.

"We will win!" Li Hongying said confidently. As for the reason? What reason was needed? Because it was Lu Yunshi, her boss.

"Yeah, I think we'll win too." Old Six nodded, now he was also bursting with confidence in Lu Yunshi.

Fifteen minutes later, Lu Yunshi stood below the stage, listening to the cheers of support coming from all around, his expression gradually becoming helpless.

I've been tricked! I'll try again, but if it really doesn't work, I might as well give up. After all, it's better to be spit on than to be injured and bedridden for months.

Thinking of this, Lu Yunshi nodded slightly. Just then, a bell rang out, and without hesitation, he jumped onto the stage.

Upon seeing Lu Yunshi's voice on the viewing platform, nearly a thousand humans cheered and shouted words of encouragement. Even some demons and monsters joined in the shouts, not because they liked or admired Lu Yunshi, but simply because they disliked the Holy Race.

The Dragon Clan was quite hostile towards Lu Yunshi, and as for the Holy Clan... there were hardly any of them in the audience.

From the audience's perspective, Lu Yunshi has an overwhelming advantage, but who knows if Lu Yunshi will lose and those who support him will turn into knives and stab him?

Lu Yunshi didn't want to think about these things; he just found the sounds troublesome.

Compared to the initial ridicule, indifference, or silence, this is much more troublesome.

Lu Yunshi also knew why these people so easily regarded him as an object of worship; it wasn't that they were so stupid as to believe whatever Lao Liu and the others promoted.

It was because Lu Yunshi performed exceptionally well in this assessment.

Yes, that's right, it's because he's too outstanding.

Of course, it's also because they hope that the human race will be number one in the assessment. Not only on their side, but Lu Yunxi's side probably also has many supporters, though probably not as many as their own after the publicity.

"Are you still going to stand there and not move?" A calm and clear voice suddenly rang out. Lu Yunshi looked up and saw that the person had long, shaggy golden hair that hung down, and his handsome appearance was like a work of art sculpted by a master, seemingly without any flaws. He looked at him with no ripples in his eyes, as calm as a stagnant pool of water.

This person was undoubtedly looking at Lu Yunshi, but the feeling he gave was more like looking at a wisp of air.

And this person was none other than Lu Yunshi's opponent today, the Holy Clan's Tianyi.

"Ah~ sorry, I was just thinking about some narration in my head." Seeing that his opponent was getting a little impatient, Lu Yunshi smiled and said.

Just as Shuang predicted yesterday, this opponent is indeed the same. In that case, perhaps it's worth a try.

Tianyi didn't speak, but quietly raised his hand, signaling Lu Yunshi to make a move. His movements were very slow, and his gaze never wavered.

He remained silent, gesturing for Lu Yunshi to make the first move, seemingly out of respect for his opponent. But everyone knows one truth: ...

Silence is the greatest form of contempt.
