One person: plays Wendy, the most carefree director of Nadu.

Chapter 40 Zhang Chulan: Being a virgin... is it something to be proud of?

Su Mu was quite surprised to hear Zhang Chulan say that.

No?

If I remember correctly, Zhuge Qing's odds in the original work were 1 to 1, right?

I killed Zhuge Qing instantly, so why are the odds still so high?

"No, please don't rush, let me explain."

Canglong said, "To be honest, if the odds were to be given according to my opinion, Su Mu would undoubtedly be 1 to 1."

"But Zhuge Qing's surrender was so inexplicable, you know?"

"The vast majority of people think that you guys from the 'Everywhere Connect' scheme were behind the scenes."

"We don't dare to offend the public, so this is the only odds we can offer."

Hearing him say that, Su Mu nodded in agreement.

Having high odds is actually a good thing.

The reason I came to participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony is not only to obtain the Tongtian Talisman, but also to find a way to advance my role-playing progress.

If you want to make progress in your role-playing, then pretending to be weak and not doing anything important is necessary.

Otherwise, if one were like Zhang Zhiwei, a recognized master, then no matter what one did, others would understand; a master has his own personality.

At that point, the progress of the role-playing will be stuck.

Instead of fueling these people's fantasies, they should solidify the rumors that the company is incompetent and resorting to underhanded tactics.

Beside him, Zhang Chulan was also thinking rapidly.

Feng Baobao previously mentioned that during that period, the flow of Qi in Zhuge Qing's body slowed down.

Regardless of how Su Ge did it, this must be his trump card.

If it were a trump card that could be revealed, Su Ge would have no reason to keep it hidden.

Revealing this trump card would bring us absolutely no benefit.

It would be better to let Su keep this trick to himself and continue to play dumb to outsmart others.

However, they certainly can't admit that the company used underhanded tactics; they need to find a reason.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chulan nodded and spoke.

"If that's the case, then it's more like it."

"But the company definitely didn't use any underhanded tactics."

"By the way, Su-ge, speaking of which, what exactly did you and Zhuge Qing talk about on the field earlier?"

Why did he let you do whatever you wanted, and then suddenly give up?

After saying that, he looked at Su Mu and thought to himself.

Let's see if Brother Su has any ideas first.

If Brother Su doesn't have a good reason, I'll make one up for him on the spot.

Very good, Comrade Zhang, you've hit the nail on the head!

Su Mu smiled slightly and said, "Well, there's really nothing I can't say about this."

"Look, what similarities do I have with Zhuge Qing?"

Canglong was taken aback, scratched his head in confusion, and asked, "What's the similarity?"

"I know!" Bai Shixue chuckled. "You're all very handsome!"

"That's right!"

Su Mu smiled slightly.

"Look, Zhuge Qing is handsome and strong, doesn't he have a lot of female fans?"

"But he's such a cool and aloof male god, which annoys his female fans, but there's not much he can do about it."

"So I told him that as long as he admits defeat, I will help him get rid of these female fans."

"Huh?" Hidden Dragon was dumbfounded. "That's it?"

"Otherwise what?"

Su Mu shrugged and spread his hands.

"Look at me, I'm so handsome, even better than Zhuge Qing, why don't I have any female fans coming to swarm me?"

"I have experience with this!"

"Did you help him get rid of his female fans?"

"Look at those female fans, aren't they all standing up for him now, collecting information, looking for evidence, and pulling strings?"

"So you're telling me, isn't it because no one's blocking him anymore?"

Hidden Dragon ponders—

"Hey, it really is!"

"So that's why Zhuge Qing admitted defeat."

"I was wondering why your acting was so fake. Zhuge Qing was standing there without moving. It turns out it was all planned in advance."

Hearing Canglong's sudden realization, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but give Su Mu a thumbs up.

When it comes to deceiving people, it's you, Brother Su, who's been the one who got hurt!

That sounds so real!

If he hadn't clearly remembered that Feng Baobao had said that the flow of Qi in Zhuge Qing's body had changed, he would have actually believed it!

I was just trying to find some reason to help Brother Su, but that was completely unnecessary.

Can any reason I came up with be as good as Su Ge's?

Zhang Chulan shook his head and continued looking at the tablet in his hand.

The next second, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Jia Zhengliang, the guy I met on the cliff who was shouting that he wanted to get revenge on Brother Su, is also a 1 to 1 bet?

Seeing Zhang Chulan looking at Jia Zhengliang, Canglong explained, "This guy is the biggest dark horse in this competition."

He recounted the competition that had taken place at the Yibaihe Field.

In that match, Jia Zhengliang was on the phone and fighting the other three people the entire time.

However, even while multitasking, he used his object manipulation technique to control twelve Immortal-Slaying Flying Knives, which completely overwhelmed the other three, leaving them utterly powerless to fight back!

Jia Zhengyu of Jiajia Village became a well-known expert by controlling three dragon-pecking cones with his magical abilities.

Jia Zhengliang wielded a total of twelve Immortal-Slaying Flying Knives, far surpassing Jia Zhengyu in both quantity and precision!

"...That's why he's at odds of 1 to 1."

Zhang Chulan looked at Su Mu with a grin.

"How's it going, Su-ge?"

"Are you under pressure?"

"You can't use underhanded tactics on this person."

Su Mu smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"I'll say it again, let's wait until he comes up to me first."

"Alright, let's go eat."

After everyone finished eating, the sun was already close to setting.

An announcement came over the loudspeaker, summoning all the winners to assemble.

Su Mu led Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao to the meeting point.

By this time, quite a few people had already gathered at the meeting point.

Su Mu looked around and spotted many familiar faces.

On the high platform, Zhang Zhiwei stood next to a box.

Seeing that most of the people had arrived, he said, "Hooray, everyone, you've all worked hard. The first round of the competition is now over."

"32 winners!"

"The next match will be a one-on-one contest."

"The name on the slip of paper you draw is your opponent."

Of the 32 winners, 16 went up on stage to draw lots.

Su Mu was among these 16 people.

I randomly picked up a piece of paper, opened it, and read—

Hey!

It's someone I know!

Isn't this Hu Jie?

This guy managed to fight his way out of the preliminary rounds of the top 4, probably just like in the original story, where he killed his father under the control of Gao Ning, the master of the Quanxing Four Thunderbolts.

A guy like that, I would never hesitate to take action against him.

However, I drew Hu Jie, and I don't know if the order of battle for other players will change.

Thinking of this, Su Mu looked at Zhang Chulan.

"Xiao Zhang, who was your opponent?"

"Shan Shitong".

"What about you, Bao'er?"

"I am... Wang Ergou."

Well, it seems that the opponents of the others haven't changed much.

Just then, Zhang Lingyu arrived in front of Su Mu.

"Su Mu, you have indeed not disappointed me, you have defeated Zhuge Qing."

"I'll be waiting for you in the ring."

"Don't lose before you fight me."
