The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 340 Too Narrow-minded and Limited Perspective? (2 Updates)
The young girl seemed frightened; her eyes immediately welled up with tears. She already had two marks on her body; one more and she would be eliminated.

"thank you."

Yun Ran waved her hand: "You're welcome."

Releasing her grip on the young girl's hand, Yun Ran turned her gaze toward the direction from which the sword had come.

A man who looked menacing held a sharp sword in his hand and stared fiercely in the direction of Yun Ran and the others.

"Fellow Daoist, you went too far!"

The young girl thought the man was fake; otherwise, why would he resort to violence so easily?

Unexpectedly, the little girl who had just saved her started questioning the other party. Just as she was about to tell Yunran that the other party was not human.

The man withdrew his fierce gaze: "So you're human now."

Yunran: ...

It seems these people were probably badly tricked by the people conjured up in this illusion, otherwise they wouldn't be on such high alert.

This made Yunran a little curious. Why hadn't she encountered any of the people she had conjured up?

I was just thinking that.

The dragon spirit's voice echoed in his mind: "Hmph, if you weren't in a symbiotic relationship with me, could you so easily see through all illusions?"
Those conjured creatures naturally wouldn't dare approach you; you've benefited from my favor, so you should be secretly happy!

As soon as Long Ling finished speaking, a 'person' that had appeared appeared and came toward them.

However, it is unknown whether that person saw Yun Ran and sensed the aura of the dragon spirit on her. After exchanging a glance with Yun Ran, he immediately turned and ran away.

What left Yunran speechless was that the transformation was far too crudely made. This 'person' only had a human upper body, while the lower body was clearly just a shadow.

The young girl was dumbfounded by what she saw: "Hey, why did that person run away? Was he worried that we were illusions and that's why he was scared?"

The man, however, glanced at Yun Ran, as if he had figured something out, but he said nothing.

Yunran didn't want to linger here, and she certainly didn't want to team up with anyone.

"I'll go take a look around elsewhere; you can do as you please."

The young girl could tell that Yun Ran was definitely a very powerful person, since there wasn't a single mark on her body.

She only has one last chance now. If she can follow Yun Ran, she might be able to win without lifting a finger.

"My name is Mena. It's fate that we met. Why don't we stick together and look out for each other?"

"I'm not used to traveling with others, sorry."

She had already reciprocated Mena's earlier reminder, so she naturally had no guilty conscience.

Mena bit her lip, her eyes filled with sadness, clearly unable to accept Yun Ran's rejection.

Unfortunately, Yun Ran was not the kind of person who would be morally coerced. This was just a competition, and no one would die, so she naturally didn't need to bring anyone along.

If this were a real scene where people could die, Yun Ran wouldn't say anything more. But right now, she doesn't want anyone to step on her to win.

As members of the Xuanmen (Taoist sect), there are no shortcuts. If you can do it, you can do it; if you can't, you can't. You can't rely on others.

Yunran turned and left, disappearing from sight in no time.

Mena's eyes dimmed, but she quickly regained her composure and turned her gaze to the man who was still standing not far away. However, before she could speak, the man turned and left, showing no intention of offering any help.

In the audience, some people noticed this scene and immediately felt that Yun Ran was too ruthless.

Especially after the welcoming ceremony Gu Yuan put on, many people recognized Yun Ran.

Immediately, some people, eager for a good show, started making sarcastic comments.

"This Yunran is really stubborn. She doesn't give anyone any face at all, as if she's afraid that others will benefit from her."

"Exactly, it looks selfish. I guess they're afraid of having more people enter the selection process."

"If it were me, I would definitely want to make more friends in this situation. Yun Ran's vision and perspective are too narrow. She thinks that she can win as long as she can stand out in the selection competition."

Little did she know, the real competition was yet to come. When everyone else had teamed up against each other, she would be all alone and would undoubtedly be the first to be eliminated.

……

Those who watch the spectacle always think of themselves as Zhuge Liang, eager to offer their opinions and guidance.

Yun Ran, who was criticized for being narrow-minded, suppressed the aura of the dragon spirit on her body, and soon she encountered the person she had conjured.

Yun Ran didn't even need to distinguish them; she simply took out a plain whip and lashed them one by one.

This scene immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Sitting in the VIP room, Xie Xuzhi watched Yun Ran whip each person without the slightest hesitation or surprise.

The bodyguards following behind him, however, were practically bulging their eyes out.

He had participated in the competition before, and coincidentally, he had also drawn a character from the yellow zone. Therefore, he knew very well that in the illusion, a person's judgment would be affected to some extent.

But now, Yunran's appearance is completely unaffected, and her accuracy is astonishing.

At this moment, he seemed to understand why Director Gu had been willing to gamble all his resources on Yun Ran winning.

The bodyguard was also tempted; he planned to buy some Yun Ranying after get off work.

Yunran lashed her whip with fierce power. After she shattered the last illusory figure, the illusion of the valley collapsed before her eyes.

At this moment, only one-third of the people remaining in the yellow area are left, less than 100 in number.

Mena was in a terrible state, covered in sweat, and her clothes were in disarray from trying to dodge the attacks of those conjured figures.

The new round of illusions has not yet started; what they are seeing now is the normal competition center.

Naturally, she saw Yunran not far away. Yunran was dressed in perfect order, and a hint of envy and a touch of defiance flashed in her eyes.

"That whip of yours is quite good!"

The one who spoke was the man who had been holding the sword earlier. He was clean and looked very relaxed.

Yunran's gaze also fell on his sharp sword, which was clearly a very good magical weapon.

"Your sword is quite good too."

After speaking, Yun Ran began to look at the others. With just one glance, Yun Ran could roughly tell how many people would remain on the stage in the end. At most, there would be no more than 20 people left.

It seems that the previous statement that the yellow-colored area suffered heavy losses was an understatement.
