Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 3777: I give up

However, even if he didn’t use any weapons, with Meng Tong’s current strength, if he really wanted to take the opportunity to kill Xiao ran, he was still very confident. And from the standpoint of the two sides, the possibility of this happening was more than 90%.

Since they couldn’t deal with Lin Yi directly, they’d start with his lackeys-that was the simplest logic!

Xiao ran paused at Lin Yi’s reminder. He turned around and smiled,””I understand. I will protect myself!”

With that, Xiao ran walked up to the ring with his head held high. He didn’t seem nervous at all. His expression was as calm as water, giving people the feeling that he was even more confident than Meng Tong!

F * ck, this guy couldn’t be a hidden master like Lin Yi, could he?!

Seeing Xiao ran’s performance, Meng Tong couldn’t help but Mutter in his heart.

It was just as Lin Yi had thought-Meng jueguang had told Meng Tong to kill Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai as mercilessly as he could when fighting them.

However, the situation before him made Meng Tong’s heart feel a little weak. Although they had been focusing on Lin Yi and ignored Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai, they had fought against each other during the back mountain test.

At that time, Meng Tong had yet to successfully build his Foundation, and Xiao ran was exhausted from being chased by so many people. However, his strange and mysterious Shadowstep left a deep impression on them.

To be able to possess such a movement technique, could it be that he was an ordinary person?

Although Meng Tong had always been arrogant, he still had a good eye for people. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to reach where he was today.

Walking up to the ring, Xiao ran’s expression was as calm as an ancient well. He stared back at Meng Tong without backing down. Although the aura around him was still calm and indifferent, if one felt it carefully, one could detect the hidden powerful fighting spirit!

For a moment, the other rookies who were gloating in the audience suddenly fell silent.

Like Meng Tong, they had more or less seen Xiao ran’s strength. At least, during the back mountain trial, he was not at a disadvantage when facing them, except that he could only choose to run away when he was outnumbered. He was far from being in a sorry state like Qiao hongcai.

Xiao ran was a strong man, and while he wasn’t as overpowered as Lin Yi, he wasn’t someone who could be dispelled. This was a common understanding between them.

Looking at Xiao ran’s calmness in the face of Meng Tong on the stage, the rookies had a faint feeling that Xiao ran might not have no chance of winning!

“Tsk, you’re just a heaven class peak phase weakling, why are you acting all high and mighty! Of all the things you can learn, all you learn is some ignorant fool who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth to show off. You’re really stained by ink, but I’m in a good mood, so I can teach you a lesson!” “But it’s understandable. Your boss is the king of acting tough among the new artistes!” Meng Tong suddenly sneered.

He had already reacted. So what if Xiao ran wasn’t simple? as long as he hadn’t built his Foundation, he would never be a match for Xiao ran. The only difference was that he would have to use a little more effort.

Before Xiao ran could say anything, Qiao hongcai couldn’t help but jump out and fight back for him,””May I ask this newbie Meng, if you add color to the ink-black color, what other patterns can you come up with besides black? I didn’t study much, so please don’t lie to me!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience burst into laughter. When Meng Tong came to his senses, his face instantly turned the color of pig liver.

I didn’t study much, so please don’t lie to me. Since you didn’t read much, how did you become a complete heaven class? are you going to say that you can’t even read?

If he wasn’t standing in the ring at this moment, Meng Tong would probably have rushed over and stepped on Qiao hongcai. When one’s intelligence had been reduced to a laughing stock, what was the use of being an early Foundation establishment expert?

Lin Yi smiled and nodded at Qiao hongcai-this guy was quite brave, speaking his mind straight from the start, and he was still the same now!

Meng jueguang and the others, on the other hand, could only hold their foreheads in their hands, speechless. This Meng Tong guy was really a piece of trash. Fortunately, they didn’t expect this guy to be able to deal with Lin Yi, or they would’ve been blind.

Meng Tong had no choice but to glare at Qiao hongcai. He then turned to the judge sent by the three pavilions to supervise the fairness of the trial. He suppressed his anger and said,”Lord Judge, can we start now?”

The judge wasn’t a disciple of the GreenCloud Pavilion, but a disciple of the mysterious Pavilion who was specially assigned to this place in order to prevent secret operations. Seeing this, he smiled indifferently and immediately announced,””Both sides are ready. The first round of the rookie Challenge will now begin.”

Meng Tong immediately laughed hideously. The aura of an early stage foundation building expert was fully displayed around him. It seemed that he intended to go all out to kill Xiao ran as soon as he arrived. He was ready to kill Xiao ran to vent his anger!

After all, there was an absolute difference in their levels. No matter how impressive Xiao ran was, it was still quite dangerous for him to face an early-stage Foundation establishment expert who was going all out. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was in danger.

However, before Meng Tong could make a move, Xiao ran turned to the judge and said,”I give up.”

F * ck! Meng Tong almost choked on his own breath. His body instantly spasmed and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. The crowd below the stage was in an uproar as they looked at each other in disbelief.

‘You’ve pretended to be an expert for a long time. Not only did you tease Meng Tong, but even the newcomers in the audience were looking forward to it. In the end, you just said ‘I give up’?’

Are you F * cking kidding us?

Not only were Meng Tong and the others stunned, but even Lin Yi and the others didn’t expect this. Giving up was the same as admitting defeat. Xiao ran never said he would do this!

“This, how can this be? wouldn’t that be letting Meng Tong off easy?” Qiao hongcai was immediately dumbfounded.

In his opinion, when facing a trash like Meng Tong, even if he was no match for him in strength, he must not let the other party have an easy time. Even if both sides were injured or even fought to the death, he would not hesitate. What was the difference between Xiao ran losing without even fighting and surrendering to the enemy?

However, Lin Yi smiled,””There’s no such thing as ‘cheap’. Xiao ran is much more flexible and pragmatic than I thought. Giving up this round will only mean losing two challenge points. Other than that, he won’t be affected in any way. Not only will he not be injured, but he won’t even waste a trace of true energy. He can even get the most favorable position, cave No. 15, at the foot of the mountain. In the next few rounds, he can build his Foundation in peace. He’s a classic example of retreating to advance. Well done!”
