Chapter 84

"Look, Chu Wange and Lin Mo are both out!"

In the tavern lobby, Old Hu and the others became excited after seeing the two.

Zhu Hongyuan's eyes also lit up as he looked at the geniuses sitting in high positions in the Mirror Flower Water Moon.

"Is this the style of top-tier geniuses? Too handsome!"

"The entrance effect is maxed out, haha!"

"..."

The audience praised the small arrangement designed for this arena battle.

Someone in the crowd even said:

"Look at that guy named Lin Mo, he feels even more handsome in person than in photos. He is worthy of being the man chosen by the Immortal List Top Graduate!"

This remark immediately received approval from many girls.

"It seems that the Immortal List Top Graduate cannot be vulgar either; everyone likes handsome people."

"I believe in the aesthetic of the Immortal List Top Graduate!"

"..."

Hearing these words, Li Feng snorted coldly:

"What's so good about a pretty boy? The cultivation world ultimately relies on strength to speak. You just watch, he will be challenged down by Brother Chen soon. He won't be able to sit firmly in the top ten of the Immortal List!"

Everyone did not refute his words.

The cultivation world respects strength; this is naturally correct.

If Lin Mo is just a "pseudo-genius" who got to the top by luck + living off a woman, then he will soon be challenged down.

Regarding this point, Zhu Hongyuan and the others could only respond with silence.

After the top twenty of the Immortal List appeared, Brother Li, the host in the field, spoke again:

"Now you can start choosing your challenge targets. Your challenge targets naturally also..."

"Include everyone in the top twenty of the Immortal List!"

Although the rules were already known before the first round started, this remark, combined with the appearance of the top twenty geniuses of the Immortal List, ignited the atmosphere of the scene again.

Lin Mo, sitting in the high seat, twitched the corner of his mouth. Good guy, it turns out they tricked us into coming here to cause trouble!

Early in the morning, he received a notification message in the group that freshmen on the ninth level of Enlightenment could use substitute talismans to enter in advance and enjoy the best VIP viewing seats.

Now it seems that this is not a VIP viewing seat at all; these people are simply conspicuous targets hung up.

It would be fine if they didn't appear here. Now that they were directly pointed out, the dozens of ambitious "burly men" in the opposite waiting seats must have already set their sights on them.

"Now, you can start choosing!"

As Brother Li's voice fell, I saw the eyes of the fifty qualifiers in the waiting seats start searching back and forth in the opposite auditorium seats.

Some people were weighing and thinking, some seemed to give up after pondering...

In just a moment, Lin Mo already felt ten or twenty malicious gazes sweeping over him.

Among the top twenty of the Immortal List, he seemed to be the one who was easiest to "bully".

Good, good, good, playing like this, right?

Lin Mo secretly said in his heart.

It's just that his face still wore a smile, and he even waved at the opposite stand.

When his eyes swept over Ye Chen, he even deliberately raised his eyebrows, and the latter's expression sank a few more points.

With almost no hesitation, Ye Chen pinched the talisman used for selecting people and threw it directly at the other party.

I saw the talisman turn into a golden light, quickly ejecting, and then floating straight toward Lin Mo.

【Challenger Ye Chen chooses Lin Mo.】

A prompt floated up.

Ye Chen took the lead in making a choice and "boldly" chose Lin Mo, who was tenth on the Immortal List.

I saw him raise his eyebrows and look at Lin Mo: "I want that position of yours!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience watching the battle outside the field was in an uproar.

"What a provocative challenge, this guy is a bit crazy!"

"He's only crazy if he has strength; he really has something."

"Others are future sword cultivators, so being a bit crazy is to be expected."

"Although... I still think he's a bit pretentious."

"A bit pretentious +1"

"..."

The audience had mixed reviews about Ye Chen's performance, but the team leaders in the bamboo building courtyard gave appreciative evaluations.

Brother Li smiled and said: "Young friend Ye Chen has quite the style of an ancient cultivator!"

"Indeed, indeed."

Everyone echoed.

"Correct! This statement is very sword cultivator."

"Indeed, indeed."

"The program effect is maxed out."

"Indeed, indeed."

"He might not win!"

"Indeed... huh?"

Everyone turned their heads to look at Zhuang Weiwan, who ruined the atmosphere. I saw her looking at the Mirror Flower Water Moon screen and saying:

"As a cultivator, Junior Brother Ye Chen's competitive heart is still too strong. Cultivators emphasize a calm heart and harmonious energy."

After finishing, she even pointed to Lin Mo in the Mirror Flower Water Moon and said: "In this regard, Lin Shidi does very well. Even when provoked, he greets with a smile."

Everyone looked at Lin Mo in the screen, who was raising his eyebrows and smiling. You call this greeting with a smile?

Isn't this smile even more provocative? It's just short of writing the words "come choose me" on his face!

And what happened next seemed to confirm their thoughts, as several golden lights shot toward Lin Mo on the stand.

【Challenger Tang Lei chooses Lin Mo.】

【Challenger Yu Haocang chooses Lin Mo.】

【Challenger Song Hongxi chooses Lin Mo.】

【...】

Successive prompts were transmitted.

The team leaders of the nine great academies couldn't help but cast their gazes toward Zhuang Weiwan.

The latter also seemed to find it very strange, saying: "It doesn't make sense. Lin Shidi is usually approachable and kind to others. How could so many people challenge him?"

You should have some misunderstanding about these adjectives... Everyone was silent.

Fortunately, Brother Li smiled and smoothed things over:

"I didn't expect Lin Shidi to be so popular, but this is not a bad thing. Now the right to counter-select is in the hands of Lin Shidi!"

Hearing this, many people realized why Lin Mo's provocative smile was for.

This kid is very cunning!

The team leaders suddenly realized.

If chosen more than three times, then one has the opportunity to counter-select.

Now it seems, how could it be just three people choosing Lin Mo?

There were at least ten people!

Brother He and Ye Chen in the waiting seats frowned at the same time.

They obviously did not anticipate such a situation.

Long A at the scene laughed loudly, patted Lin Mo on the shoulder and said:

"Haha, Lin Shidi, you are a natural taunt holy body, so many people are looking for you!"

Lin Mo was silent for a while. Even he did not expect that a single basic attack would directly "taunt" so many opponents.

But on second thought, these people might not all have chosen him because of his provocation.

Perhaps they were "awakened" by Ye Chen's behavior, or perhaps they had plans long ago and were just using the slope to get off the donkey...

In short, they all realized one point: if they want to enter the ninth level of the Enlightenment Platform, perhaps Lin Mo is the best breakthrough point!

A few minutes later, the fifty qualifiers successfully selected the opponents they wanted to challenge.

Among them, twenty-three qualifiers chose to challenge the top twenty of the Immortal List, and the choices of the others were relatively conservative, not choosing to challenge the geniuses on the ninth level.

And among these twenty-three qualifiers, fifteen chose Lin Mo as their opponent.

He was also the only one among the top ten of the Immortal List who was chosen. The others were chosen by those ranked lower on the ninth level.

Seeing the golden challenge talisman in front of him, Lin Mo slowly got up from his seat, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Now—

Please have the male guest counter-select!
