Chapter 1588
Zhao Chi said he only entered after seeing the two enemies had less than 1,000 combat power left — that was absolutely impossible!
Although they couldn't see what had happened, during the replay they saw clearly that Zhao Chi, with 1,114 combat power, had directly found Iinai Nahiro with 7,841 combat power and taken the initiative to start the fight.
It was Zhao Chi who actively sought out Iinai Nahiro at full health!
It wasn't that he joined some late-stage battle at all.
And the later Rimao Shenger was also clearly beaten down by Zhao Chi from his 8,508 combat power to nothing.
Those two werewolves hadn't had any internal conflict at all, nor had they engaged with any other lords.
They had simply been routed after coming into contact with Zhao Chi.
Although Gu Zhan was very puzzled, he could infer that Zhao Chi wanted to conceal the process a bit.
They would respect this choice.
But... not too many people would believe it, right?
It would have been better to just refuse to share altogether.
But if he refused directly...
That didn't seem quite right either.
However, what Gu Zhan hadn't expected was that the majority of lords actually believed it.
In the quiet venue, an intense discussion suddenly erupted.
"Holy shit! You scared me to death. I really thought he'd defeated enemies with 16,000 combat power using just over 1,100. So that's how it was."
"Exactly, I said it was impossible. To pull off a record like that, he'd have to be a god."
"That kid just picked up the scraps — what luck."
"Yeah, running into werewolves with internal conflict and snagging the loot of two town-level lords for free — amazing luck."
"That doesn't add up, does it? Don't werewolves have a skill to summon companions? Even if they were fighting each other, they could still summon companions — how could that kid take advantage like that?"
"You don't know jack. They must have already summoned during the internal conflict, which is how Zhao Chi could take them down."
"Oh, that makes sense..."
"Right, just use your brain — how could 1,000 combat power possibly beat 16,000?"
"Fair enough... but that Zhao Chi is at least being honest."
"Honest is honest, but I wonder how they'll handle the Best Performance award — are they really going to give it to him?"
"No idea about that."
"I think it should be revoked, right?"
"Exactly, not revoking it would be unfair."
"But at this point, how could you revoke it?"
"Whatever, let's just see how Captain Gu handles it."
Gu Zhan's face had turned green.
He hadn't expected so many people to believe Zhao Chi's nonsense.
There were obvious logical holes in it...
Perhaps... the lords genuinely preferred to believe Zhao Chi had just been lucky, rather than that he'd fought well.
That made sense too — no matter how well one fought, such an exaggerated record simply wasn't possible.
Relatively speaking, although Zhao Chi's words had holes, their plausibility was actually higher than if he'd truly won by strength.
It was also quite helpless.
The truth is often so unbelievable that people find it hard to accept.
As for the "Best Performance" award, it definitely couldn't be revoked.
Although Zhao Chi was talking nonsense, this award was earned through his own strength — how could it be revoked?
Moreover, not revoking it was fine, but once revoked, the Poshi Army's credibility would also decline.
Other lords might believe Zhao Chi's nonsense, but Gu Zhan didn't, so this "Best Performance" still belonged to Zhao Chi.
It could only belong to Zhao Chi!
Li Ruanyu's delicate brows furrowed slightly.
She of course didn't believe Zhao Chi's explanation either.
She knew Zhao Chi very well, and knew he wanted to keep himself from drawing too much attention, which was why he said it that way.
But the problem was...
Why did Zhao Chi say the two werewolves had internal conflict?
Why did he say it that way?
