Wo Ling Tiezhai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you."
"You are welcome."
Luo Wei waved his hand. He had clearly used his power to intimidate others, yet Wo Ling Tiezhai still thanked him. That was the benefit of having great strength.
If he didn't have the ability, would Kisuke Urahara have put in so much effort?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Luo Wei knew all too well the disadvantages of being powerless. His predecessor was completely devoured by the Hollow because he lacked power, leaving him with only a finger.
This shows that strength is something you can't do without, but you can't be without it either.
After leaving Kisuke Urahara's shop, Lovi didn't wander around Karakura Town aimlessly; instead, he returned to Tokyo.
I quietly arrived at Higurashi Shrine.
It turns out that the Inuyasha storyline hasn't even started yet, and Kagome Higurashi still has some time until her fifteenth birthday.
The sealed Well of Bones has not yet mutated.
Luo Wei also had no way to return to the Warring States period through the Well of Bones.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Luo Wei decided to wait a little while, until Kagome Higurashi's fifteenth birthday, before traveling back to the Sengoku period with her.
For now, I'll just continue being an ordinary, unassuming guy.
In the blink of an eye, several more days have passed.
While Luo Wei was idly wandering the streets every day, Saeko Busujima suddenly showed up at his door.
So Luo Wei took her to Cat's Eye Cafe for a cup of coffee.
"Now you can talk to me. What did you want to see me about?"
Luo Wei asked with a smile.
Saeko Busujima sat opposite Lo Wei, her back ramrod straight, her eyes fixed intently on him. "Does Your Excellency know about the Dark Tournament?"
"What the heck?" Luo Wei was completely bewildered.
Saeko Busujima said: "(Wang Zhao's) Dark Martial Arts Tournament is an unrestricted fighting tournament. Legend has it that many monsters and superhumans will participate in this martial arts tournament."
"My Lord God, I wish to participate in this martial arts tournament and experience this kind of battle."
Upon hearing this, Luo Wei's eyes flickered; it was a dark martial arts tournament involving monsters and humans.
It sounds familiar.
It's like I've heard it somewhere before.
Luo Wei racked his brains, specifically retrieved some memories, and actually found the relevant information.
The Dark Tournament is just a plot point from the classic anime series "Yu Yu Hakusho," isn't it?
If Luo Wei remembers correctly, this conference was hosted by the villains Sakyo and Toguro from Yu Yu Hakusho.
It is also one of the most classic climaxes in Yu Yu Hakusho.
While the other plot points were entertaining, none could compare to this dark martial arts tournament.
95. The Origin of the Martial Arts Tournament
Luo Wei was very curious and couldn't help but ask, "Tell me, how did you find out about this Dark Martial Arts Tournament?"
Saeko Busujima said, "Not long ago, when I defeated a monster, I learned about the existence of this Dark Tournament from it, so I want to participate in this tournament."
Luo Wei said "Oh," and then said, "So, you've come to ask for my permission."
Saeko Busujima nodded. "That's certainly a thought I had, but I have other purposes as well."
"what?"
"I would like to invite you, sir, to participate in the Dark Martial Arts Tournament."
Luo Wei: ? ? ?
To be honest, Lo Wei really hadn't expected Saeko Busujima's idea.
This dark martial arts tournament was far too low-level for Luo Wei.
In the original Yu Yu Hakusho storyline, the strongest contestant in the Dark Martial Arts Tournament is Toguro, the ultimate boss.
However, as the story unfolds, readers soon learn that Toguro, who once put Yusuke Urameshi in dire straits and seemed almost invincible, was merely a B-rank yokai.
Above Toguro are A-rank yokai, and even S-rank yokai.
Toguro, this B-rank yokai, truly has no prestige.
717 And now, Luo Wei doesn't even take S-level monsters seriously.
Not to mention a mere B-level monster; going to participate in that Dark Martial Arts Tournament now is no different from blasting fish.
Loewe doesn't have that kind of twisted sense of humor.
He shook his head and said, "I have no interest in this kind of low-level competition. If you want to participate, I can agree, but I don't need to."
Saeko Busujima said, "Then may I borrow a few people from you, sir? The Dark Tournament requires registration in teams, and one person cannot participate in this competition."
Luo Wei had no objection to this and readily agreed, "Sure."
"Oh, you guys seem to be talking about something really interesting."
Just then, Hitomi Kisugi suddenly sat down, between Saeko Busujima and Loe.
"Miss Saeko, could you tell me what exactly this Dark Tournament is all about?"
Hitomi Kisugi stared intently at Saeko Busujima.
Saeko Busujima nodded. She knew that Hitomi Kisugi was also a follower of Lovi, and there was no need to hide this from her.
Perfect timing, she needs teammates right now, and if Hitomi is interested in this, she might be able to become her teammate.
Saeko Busujima said, "I don't actually know much about this matter; I basically learned it from the yokai."
"All I know is that the Dark Martial Arts Tournament has a long history and is held every three years."
"The winner of the competition can make a request to the organizers of the Dark Martial Arts Tournament."
"The organizers of the Dark Tournament will do everything in their power to satisfy the victor's demands."
Upon hearing this, Hitomi Laisheng couldn't help but say, "Is that so? Why do I feel like the organizers of the martial arts tournament are doing charity?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Wei couldn't help but widen his eyes. "Hey, hey, hey, this isn't right. This doesn't seem to be the same thing I know about the Dark Martial Arts Tournament."
The Dark Martial Arts Tournament that Luo Wei knew about was organized by Sakyo and Toguro.
It has no long history, nor is it a tradition to hold it every three years.
So this Dark Tournament is not the same thing as the Dark Tournament I know?
Was I prejudiced?
Or perhaps, in this super Frankenstein's monster world, the origins of the Dark Tournament have also changed.
This is like the Blacklight virus being invented by the Umbrella Corporation; it's absurd, but it seems quite reasonable.
After hearing Saeko Busujima say that, Lovi actually became interested in this dark martial arts tournament.
He took the initiative to speak, saying, "Since you don't know anything about this Dark Martial Arts Tournament, why don't you find someone who does?"
Lai Sheng Tong asked, "Does the deity know anyone in this field?"
"You should know him."
Luo Wei stroked his chin and said, "If it were her, she would probably know some of the inside story."
About half an hour later, Kotoko Iwanaga pushed open the door of the coffee shop and walked in.
As the god of wisdom among the monsters, Lovi believed that Kotoko Iwanaga must have some knowledge of the Dark Tournament.
Even if you don't understand them, you should at least learn about these kinds of monsters.
If the Dark Tournament is indeed held every three years, and the participants are all yokai and superhumans, then Kotoko Iwanaga, as the goddess of wisdom among yokai, has no reason not to know about such a thing.
As it turned out, Lowe's guess was entirely correct.
When Kotoko Iwanaga learned that Lo Wei had come to her because of the Dark Tournament, she nodded subconsciously.
"I do know this conference very well, after all, it is inextricably linked to the previous generation of the god of wisdom."
Lowe's curiosity was immediately and completely piqued.
“Interesting. Tell me, what does this have to do with the previous god of wisdom?”
Kotoko Iwanaga nodded and said, "The origin of the Dark Tournament is actually a conflict between monsters."
"The previous generation of the God of Wisdom protected many monsters, and some of these monsters caused a lot of trouble before being protected by the God of Wisdom."
"In order to protect these monsters, my senior had to fight the group of monsters who came to cause trouble time and time again."
"After this news spread, many people learned of the existence of the god of wisdom."
"So some belligerent monsters came to my senior, wanting to fight him."
That seems to make sense.
Among the monsters, there are many who are brave and fierce.
Some monsters would come running over as soon as they heard there was a powerful enemy.
Examples of such characters include Shuten-dōji, Ibaraki-dōji, and Tsuchigumo.
Kotoko Iwanaga continued, "My predecessor was so annoyed by these monsters that he came up with a solution."
"Fighting is allowed, but the loser must follow the winner's orders."
"Those belligerent monsters readily agreed in order to have a good, satisfying battle."
"As a result, more and more monsters lost to my senior."
"My predecessor used these defeated monsters to stop the real troublemakers."
"But as time went by, many monsters knew how powerful my predecessor was, so the number of those who wanted to cause trouble increased."
"There are fewer and fewer battles."
"The group of monsters surrounding my senior were very dissatisfied with this. Some monsters left, while others stayed, wanting to continue fighting my senior."
"My predecessor made a pact with these monsters to fight them every now and then."
"Through repeated interactions, the prototype of the Dark Martial Arts Tournament was born."
96. Even participating in a competition requires an approval process.
After Kotoko Iwanaga's explanation, Luo Wei, Saeko Busujima, and Hitomi Kisugi finally gained some understanding of the Dark Martial Arts Tournament.
According to Kotoko Iwanaga, the original Dark Tournament originated from the battle between the previous God of Wisdom and the monsters.
However, at that time, the Dark Tournament wasn't called that.
It was just the god of wisdom and the monsters exchanging blows every now and then.
This situation continued for nearly several decades. As time passed, the previous generation of the God of Wisdom gradually grew old and eventually stopped fighting with the monsters.
After all, he's getting old and can't fight anymore.
Many monsters want to transform the god of wisdom into a monster so they can continue the battle.
Human lifespan is far too short compared to that of monsters.
Even a minor demon can live for hundreds of years.
But a human being's lifespan is at most ten or a hundred years.
Although the god of wisdom is called a god by the monsters, he is ultimately a human being, and naturally, he is too old to fight anymore.
These belligerent monsters and the god of wisdom have fought for so many years that they have long since formed a deep friendship and are unwilling for the god of wisdom to grow old like this.
So they wanted to turn the god of wisdom into a monster, but this idea was naturally rejected by the god of wisdom.
Perhaps some people would be willing to become a monster in order to live a long life.
Even though she became good friends with the monsters, she still didn't want to become a monster and preferred to die as a human.
