After a few seconds of thought, Fang Rui looked away. There was no need to get involved in the internal strife within the Lu family.
The next screen was showing the battle between Wang Ye and Iron Monkey.
The two of them were going back and forth, fighting fiercely.
On the surface, Wang is at a disadvantage.
But in reality, Wang was just playing along with Iron Monkey.
Watching the two fight, Fang Rui stroked his chin, pondering for a moment, silently analyzing the situation in his mind...
If nothing unexpected happens, after Wang Ye's battle with Zhuge Qing, news of his mastery of the Feng Hou Qi Men technique will spread throughout the entire society of extraordinary people. In order to avoid affecting Wudang Mountain, Wang Ye will leave Wudang Mountain.
We can try to recruit him then, although the chances of success aren't very high, but...
Given the village chief's strong desire for sorcerers, how could he possibly let him go? He would definitely try every means to get him to Biyou Village.
Therefore, Fang Rui didn't need to worry about how to recruit these two.
The last display screen showed a battle scene between Cailu and Zero.
Ling is a member of the Lu family, so Cai Lu could try to recruit him.
As Fang Rui was thinking this, the referee's voice came from the speakers.
"The first round of competitions has ended, the second round of competitions begins..."
"Feng Baobao versus Wang Ergou, Canglong versus Zhang Lingyu, Bai Shixue versus Hu Jie, Feng Xingtong versus..."
"...There are no candidates to recruit, so there's no need to watch this round of the competition."
With that, Fang Rui turned and left, but did not go far.
His gaze swept across the crowd, noticing that many eyes were fixed on Zhang Chulan. Some were simply curious, while others...
"Surveillance, huh..."
A flash of white light appeared in Fang Rui's eyes, and he immediately knew the identities of those people: the Wang family and the Yaoxing Society.
"There's no one from the Lü family here."
Out of curiosity, Fang Rui took out his phone and called Lü Huan.
"Has Lü Ci come to see you recently?"
"No."
Lu Huan's voice came through the phone, "But recently when I was chatting with my mother, she said that the rules set by my great-grandfather have caused a lot of chaos within the family."
"Is this so..."
Fang Rui nodded slightly. The chaos in the Lü family was not unexpected. As for the skill of the Dual-Hand Technique, Qu Tong was clearly superior.
Removing the spies from the Lü family will not be an easy task for Lü Ci.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, the chaos within the Lü family will continue for a considerable period.
Chapter 164 Can He Speak?
The reason is...
Whether or not all the spies in Lüjia Village have been captured, Lü Ci has no way of knowing, so it is certain that the chaos will continue for a long time.
Fang Rui didn't care much about this, since no matter how chaotic Lüjia Village was, it had nothing to do with him.
After finishing his conversation with Lü Huan, Fang Rui turned his gaze to the people from Yaoxing Society. After thinking for a moment, he decided to ignore them. After all, Qu Tong probably left some little things in the minds of those people from Yaoxing Society.
The second round of competition also ended quickly, and the third round followed immediately...
All four groups of contestants come from various powerful factions, making their chances of being recruited virtually zero.
Fang Rui wasn't interested in watching this round of matches, but when he heard that one of the matches was Zhang Chulan vs. Shan Shitong, he became interested and decided to see how Shan Shitong would lose.
With the referee's signal, the four groups of contestants began their battle...
Zhang Chulan moved with the speed of the wind, as fast as a gust of wind.
The Ruyi scepter held in his hand radiated golden light, and the flowing golden Qi transformed into the shape of a one-handed sword.
"!!!"
Seeing Zhang Chulan rapidly approaching, Shan Shitong quickly took countermeasures, throwing out several talismans. With the blessing of Qi, the talismans shot out like arrows, cutting through the air and heading straight for Zhang Chulan.
Although he had defensive measures in place, he couldn't guarantee they would be effective, so he chose to dodge.
Shift left, shift right, move in an arc...
Zhang Chulan moved with remarkable fluidity, as if he were riding a skateboard.
The distance between the two was rapidly decreasing...
Instead of waiting to die, Shan Shitong suddenly left his spot and started running at high speed. While running, he did not forget to keep an eye on Zhang Chulan's movements and continued to throw talismans behind him to block Zhang Chulan from getting closer.
"oh!!!"
The spectators in the stands gasped in surprise, their eyes following the two figures.
Although there were no fancy magical battles, the chase scenes had their own unique charm.
Outside the venue, in front of the display screen.
Looking at the footage playing, Fang Rui could already guess the ending.
Although Shan Shitong's talisman technique is a relatively powerful supernatural art, the number of talismans is limited. Once the talismans are exhausted, Shan Shitong will be a lamb to the slaughter.
Moreover, even when he had plenty of talismans, Shan Shitong still did not gain the upper hand.
Watching Zhang Chulan wielding his sword to slash the talisman in the scene, Fang Rui remained silent. Why did he feel like Zhang Chulan was just playing around?
The other audience members gasped in amazement, surprised by Zhang Chulan's act of severing the talisman with his sword.
"How can it be!!!"
Completely at a disadvantage, Shan Shitong gritted his teeth; this was not the battle he had envisioned.
Even if you can't defeat your opponent, you shouldn't lose in such a pathetic way.
Dan Shitong dodged Zhang Chulan's attack, then suddenly accelerated, widening the distance between them once again.
"This is my...final blow!"
If this drags on, he will undoubtedly be the one to lose.
Not wanting to be defeated, Shan Shih-Tung decided to give it his all!
Under the control of Qi, a large number of talismans poured towards Zhang Chulan like a surging tide.
"WTF!!!"
Too close to avoid it, Zhang Chulan cried out in surprise before being engulfed by the talisman.
"It seems... I've won!"
A smile appeared on Shan Shitong's tired face; activating so many talismans at once was also a considerable burden for him.
No, I won!
Zhang Chulan burst out of the storm of talismans, his Qi Blade transforming into a Qi Staff.
With a sweeping motion, he sent Shan Shitong flying.
"Whoo~"
Seeing Shan Shitong lying on the ground, Zhang Chulan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the defensive magic artifact could withstand the effect of the sealing talisman, otherwise he would have lost!
"The winner... Zhang Chulan!"
As the referee's announcement echoed throughout the venue, Zhang Chulan stepped to Shan Shitong's side and extended a hand to him.
"Are you okay?"
Upon hearing this, Shan Shitong's eyes, which had been fixed on the azure sky, shifted slightly as he looked at Zhang Chulan. After a moment, he said, "It's nothing."
As he spoke, he reached out and grasped Zhang Chulan's hand. Zhang Chulan took a step back and pulled Shan Shitong up.
"It's okay."
The two then left the venue.
The people who were watching Zhang Chulan gathered around as soon as his match ended, seemingly wanting to say something.
"Chu Lan, you did a great job!"
Knowing that someone was watching Zhang Chulan from the shadows, how could Xu Si possibly let Zhang Chulan be alone?
Those who had intended to talk to Zhang Chulan immediately stopped when they saw Xu Si next to him.
Xu Si and the others wanted to continue watching other competitions and gathering information on other contestants, but unfortunately they failed to achieve their goal. Zhi Jinhua came to the two of them and informed them to go to a meeting somewhere.
Zhang Chulan and Xu Si exchanged glances for a moment, then followed Zhi Jinhua.
Feng Baobao had no objections and followed behind the three of them.
He glanced at the departing group, then looked away after a moment and continued watching the remaining matches.
………………
In an ordinary room somewhere in the back mountains.
Zhang Zhiwei, Tian Jinzhong, and Lu Jin sat in chairs, Xu Si, Zhang Chulan, and Feng Baobao stood in front of the left wall inside the room, Lu Linglong and others stood in front of the door, and Bai Shixue was half a step ahead of the others.
"...This is what happened. Because I had contact with Shen Chong before, I was able to identify people who were controlled by Shen Chong's superpowers. When I was fighting Hu Jie, I noticed something unusual in his Qi and learned that he had been controlled by Shen Chong."
Upon hearing this, the three elderly men remained expressionless. They already knew that there were extraordinary people from the Quanxing sect in Longhu Mountain, and they were not surprised at all to hear that traces of the Quanxing had been found.
"What do you want to do?" Lu Jin nodded slightly and asked Lu Linglong and the others.
"Capture Hu Jie and interrogate him for intelligence." Lu Linglong clenched her fist.
Bai Shixue added, "Yun has already gone to catch Hu Jie, Zai should be here soon..."
As they were talking, the door was pushed open, and Yun, who was carrying Hu Jie, and Deng Youfu, who was pushing up his glasses, walked in.
Why was there an extra person when we came back?
Lu Linglong and the others looked puzzled and turned their questioning gazes to Yun, waiting for his answer.
