Chapter 133 Able to bend and stretch
Everyone knows how powerful Tao Tao is, and no one dares to fight her at this critical juncture. Moreover, Tuan Tuan does give people a very dangerous feeling; she can instantly devour so many spells, let alone a person.
"I have something to do, I'll be going now." Some people had already left first, and the rest of the people left reluctantly after seeing this. They weren't that strong, so why would they dare to easily provoke someone stronger than themselves?
Even if Tao Tao doesn't take action here, there's no guarantee he won't find it elsewhere. In the cultivation world, it's perfectly normal for the weak to be killed, and even their sect might not help them get revenge.
Seeing that everyone else had left, Bai Lu realized she couldn't do anything to Tao Tao and didn't dare to linger, so she quickly left as well, planning to get her revenge later.
"You can't make a move here, Tao Tao, you'd better tone it down." Song Chaofeng hurriedly stopped Tao Tao, but Tao Tao had no intention of making a move at the moment. She gently patted Tuan Tuan's little head, and Tuan Tuan's ears twitched. She lay back down softly, and the terrifying aura disappeared instantly, allowing the people around to catch their breath.
Tao Tao smiled slightly at Song Chaofeng, "I know, let's go to Zhenxiu Pavilion for dinner."
She reverted to her innocent and carefree demeanor, looking completely different from before. Song Chaofeng sighed softly, "Alright, let's go."
Anyway, Tao Tao must be hungry right now, so it's better to leave early than to stay here and get into trouble.
Most cultivators have already abstained from grains and rarely go to the Treasure Pavilion unless they really want to try the delicacies. Of course, many disciples of the Annihilation Cold Sect still go there, since the dishes at the Treasure Pavilion help improve their cultivation.
However, Tao Tao didn't care about all that. She wasn't trying to improve her cultivation; she was just hungry. She would come several times a day, and even Old Yang, the head chef of the Zhenxiu Pavilion, recognized her.
"I want osmanthus cake, fried dough fish, crispy lotus chicken, and that pig's trotter..."
Tao Tao excitedly started ordering food; that was the only use for the spirit stones in his hand.
"Alright, alright, one of everything as usual, but little guy, some things are hard to refine if you eat too much of them."
"It's okay, my belly is big, I can eat as much as I want." Tao Tao smiled and patted her belly. Old Yang had no choice but to let her be.
After ordering their food, Tao Tao and Song Chaofeng found a seat and prepared to enjoy a delicious meal. However, as soon as they sat down, several disciples of the Tiangang Sect sitting next to them began to whisper among themselves.
"Is that her? I heard she's the champion of the Class C competition? Seven consecutive wins? Tsk, she looks a bit dull, I didn't expect her to be so strong."
"Has she never lost a single time? Doesn't that make her the same as those in the top ten?"
"What are you thinking? All the strong ones went to the Class A arena. How could she, a mere Class C champion, possibly compare to those freakish geniuses in the top ten? Whether it's talent or her own choice, she can't keep up."
"That's true, but I heard she's from the Immortal Spirit Valley of the Annihilation Cold Sect. Isn't that a demon beast? No wonder she's more powerful than ordinary people."
"..."
Tao Tao and the others had sharp ears, and since this group of people deliberately told her what they were saying without any intention of hiding it, they were not surprised to hear it.
"I didn't expect it to be so quiet here. It seems you'll be the subject of a lot of gossip lately," Song Chaofeng said, resting his chin on his hand with a hint of helplessness.
Who made TaoTao so amazing? Amazing people are naturally the subject of discussion, while those with low scores and few wins don't even have the right to be discussed.
"Let them be, senior brother, let's eat quickly!" Tao Tao didn't care about anything else. As soon as the food was served, she picked up her chopsticks and started eating, her mind only focused on filling her stomach.
Just then, a familiar voice came, sounding somewhat mocking, clearly indicating ill intent: "Oh dear, isn't this Junior Sister Yue from the Annihilation Cold Sect? What a coincidence, to run into you here."
The voice sounded familiar. Tao Tao looked up and saw Du Yin walking slowly toward her. She hadn't expected that Du Yin was also participating in the martial arts tournament.
"What a coincidence." Tao Tao grinned, unconvinced. She knew Du Yin's hatred for her, after all, she had never gotten away with anything good from her.
"May I have a chat?" Du Yin, unusually, didn't argue with Tao Tao, but instead took the initiative to be friendly, a behavior that even Tao Tao found a bit puzzling.
Before Tao Tao could speak, Du Yin had already sat down opposite her, poured herself a cup of spiritual tea and sipped it lightly. She glanced at Song Chaofeng, her disdain intensifying, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she rested her chin on her hand and said to Tao Tao with interest, "Junior Sister Le is truly skilled."
Tao Tao was enjoying her meal and was in a great mood. She was too lazy to argue with Du Yin about what had happened before, but she ignored Du Yin and kept stuffing food into her mouth.
Seeing that she ignored him, Du Yin was not angry and continued, "Junior Sister Le performed brilliantly in the C-level arena this time. Many of my acquaintances are talking about you. We have fought before and are well aware of Junior Sister's strength. How about we put aside our past grievances and cooperate this time?"
No wonder she was so nice; it turns out she wanted to collaborate.
It has to be said that Du Yin is really flexible and adaptable. She was crushed by Tao Tao and suffered several defeats. Logically speaking, she should have hated Tao Tao to the core, but for the sake of points, she was still willing to swallow her pride and ask for cooperation. She is indeed quite impressive.
"What do you mean?" Tao Tao asked knowingly, stuffing a large piece of meat into his mouth and chewing as he asked.
"Your score is high enough to enter the Rank B arena, but if you want to get a higher score, you should participate in the two-person arena. However, the two-person arena is different from other arenas. There are no tiers, and all participants are in the same arena. Therefore, you will encounter the groups with the highest scores, and you may even fight the number one."
"so what?"
Tao Tao tilted his head, looking puzzled.
Tao Tao had no idea about the rules and format of the two-person martial arts competition. She was only thinking about winning more matches to earn more points. However, after hearing what Du Yin said, she roughly understood that the two-person martial arts competition did not have different levels. Everyone competed together, which would increase the difficulty a lot. No wonder the points would be higher.
"So if you want to participate in the two-person competition, you must find a teammate of similar strength. Otherwise, if you encounter those strong ones, you won't even have a chance to fight back. We did have some disagreements before, but I believe that someone as smart as you won't hold a grudge over such things. Right now, points are the most important thing."
Du Yin was very confident; she had the ability, and she truly believed in Tao Tao's abilities, otherwise she wouldn't have bothered to come and find Tao Tao.
However, Tao Tao had a very bad impression of Du Yin. Even if Du Yin lowered his stance, she didn't want to cooperate with him. Besides, she had already teamed up with Song Chaofeng and didn't need an unfamiliar outsider.
So she decisively refused, saying, "But I already have teammates, so I'm sorry."
"Who? It can't be him, can it?" Du Yin's expression changed drastically. He glanced at Song Chaofeng, his eyes full of disdain. "It seems you don't want to win if you team up with him."
