Douluo: I use shadow to open Shura

Chapter 154 Bet
"You guys won!"

Looking at the extinguished incense stick behind him, Liu Erlong finally realized that he had lost.

She shook her head and then canceled the Martial Soul Possession state.

However, Liu Erlong quickly changed the subject, a beautiful smile curving her lips, and announced the result of the competition.

"However, although you won, your team was not cooperative at all. Two of you did not cooperate at all and made no contribution. Therefore, I have decided to reduce your rewards by half each."

"No, why should we? What does it have to do with us if those two good-for-nothings don't cooperate?"

The moment Liu Erlong finished speaking, Xiao Wu became anxious and said with a defiant look on her face.

"Really?"

Liu Erlong glanced at Tailong and Huang Yuan, who were ashamed because of Xiaowu's words, and chuckled.

"Taylor, Huang Yuan, did you hear that? It seems like they don't need you."

Upon hearing Liu Erlong's words, Tailong and Huang Yuan felt even more ashamed.

"Teacher Erlong, you didn't say from the beginning that this was a competition that would test teamwork, and this is a competition to elect a captain. Without a doubt, Tailong and Huang Yuan are my competitors. I'm already being very kind by not resorting to dirty tricks during the competition. Did you mean that I had to be distracted to save them?"

"This is unreasonable."

Mo Yu then stood up and spoke up for the sake of everyone's interests.

Asking them to cooperate in such a short time, without even having time to discuss how to coordinate, was clearly Liu Erlong making things difficult for him.

"Okay, you're right."

Liu Erlong nodded, seemingly agreeing with Mo Yu's reasoning.

But then she shook her head and pointed to the other people.

"Jingling and Jiangzhu didn't cooperate with you either, but didn't they choose to work with you later? You even lied to me, making me think you were planning to use other people to block attacks for you. How can you say there was no cooperation?"

"Your strength is clearly enough to go toe-to-toe with me, a Soul King, yet you just watched them both lose their eligibility to compete."

"In the end, it's just that Tyrone and Huang Yuan are stupid, and you didn't choose to stop them."

"No matter what, they are your teammates. So-called competitors are not a valid reason, because when you need teammates, you will accept Jingling and Jiangzhu's help without any qualms."

Even though Jingling and Jiangzhu's contributions were less than 10%.

"The truth is, you're too selfish. You never even considered relying on your teammates. Am I right?"

Liu Erlong smiled slightly and explained the logic behind all of Mo Yu's actions, leaving him with no room for rebuttal.

"call!"

Hearing Liu Erlong's words, Mo Yu took a deep breath. He was indeed very independent, but that was not necessarily a flaw.

Besides, it wasn't that he hadn't considered relying on his teammates. He not only chose to believe in Xiao Wu, but he also chose to believe in Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Dai Mubai.

"Teacher Erlong, is it possible that they are too weak, and that if I focus my attention on coordinating with them, it will actually weaken the entire team?"

"I know there's a type of Soul Master team that's all-offensive, where all members are attackers, and their strength actually surpasses that of most other teams with good teamwork. Isn't what you're saying a bit too absolute?"

"Besides, if they are strong enough and willing to follow my instructions, they won't be thrown off the field by you. Are we going to make the whole team pay the price for the impulsiveness of one or two people?"

Mo Yu stepped forward once again. It wasn't that he was too selfish, but rather that he lacked teammates to cooperate with him.

If this group of people were replaced by members of Shrek Academy from the original timeline, he could definitely cooperate with them.

Besides, he's willing to help every Shrek member plan their training path, so is he really a lone wolf?
Mo Yu would not accept such an excuse.

"Okay, what you said makes a lot of sense, so I'll give you another chance." Liu Erlong also felt that Mo Yu's words were true, and even if they hadn't cooperated, could it be that after several years of getting along, they still had no tacit understanding?

So after much deliberation, Liu Erlong decided to give Mo Yu and the others a chance.

Upon hearing about the new opportunity, everyone was overjoyed and smiled.

But soon, Liu Erlong's words cast a shadow over everyone's faces.

Liu Erlong took out a piece of white paper from his pocket, tore it into nine pieces, and said, "I'll give you a chance. As long as each of you writes the number eight on the paper, I will give each of you eight precious medicinal bath resources."

“But if any of you write down the number ten, then those who write down ten will receive ten precious medicinal baths, while those who write down eight will receive none.”

"But if you all write 'ten,' then you will all lose all the medicinal bath resources."

Liu Erlong smiled and handed out the white paper in his hand to everyone in the New Blue Overlord team.

At this moment, everyone who received the blank paper was completely dumbfounded.

They all wanted to write ten, but they were worried that no one would write eight.

I want to write "8" to contribute to the team, but I'm worried that only a few people will write "10," while I won't get anything.

"So, are you going to accept this bet?"

Liu Erlong smiled slightly. She was very curious whether the new team would agree to the bet, and what the outcome would be.
"Yes, why not?"

While everyone was still pondering, Mo Yu took the initiative to accept the bet.

Just as everyone was staring at Mo Yu in shock, he smiled calmly, seemingly unconcerned about the outcome of failure.

"Okay, then you can start writing?"

Liu Erlong nodded and said with a smile.

Liu Erlong thought he was about to see a good show, but in reality, it was nothing to Mo Yu at all.
Their bet can't even be considered a wager; in fact, it could be argued that it was a form of cheating.

If all nine people write "8", that's seventy-two portions of medicinal bath resources. But if eight people write "10" and one person writes "8", that's eighty portions of resources.

Although if the eighty resources are divided equally among nine people, one person will have one less than the others, it is still not a loss overall.

Therefore, Mo Yu readily agreed to the bet.

With just a slight move, he could win their bet.

At this time, Liu Erlong was unaware of Mo Yu's powerful methods.

Sound is transmitted through lines, and shadows carry sound.

Mo Yu could easily convince everyone to write ten, and then write eight himself to get the most reward.

Just when everyone was struggling to put pen to paper, tiny, spider-web-like shadows crawled up everyone's shoulders and reached their ears, and Mo Yu's command voice also reached everyone's ears.

The eyes of everyone on the new Blue Tyrant team lit up; such an even distribution was definitely a good deal.

Immediately afterwards, everyone wrote a cross on their paper and handed the slips of paper to Liu Erlong.

During this time, no one said a word, but everyone's eyes were full of confidence.

"strangeness?"

Liu Erlong frowned slightly, feeling a sense of unease as he looked at the expressions of the others. Could things have gone wrong?

After Liu Erlong finished reading all the slips of paper, he was completely stunned, his face full of disbelief as he said, "Impossible, how could you all write 'ten' except for one person?"
