27: Bibi Wolf

After dealing with the Kuncheng Team, Chen Du and the other two advanced towards the moon marker on the map.

There were three moon markers on the map of the Forest of Wolves.

These were the designated reporting locations after collecting two badges.

After defeating the Kuncheng Team, Chen Du carefully calculated and changed his original plan for collecting badges.

When Moreit asked him to choose the next star marker, he chose the moon!

“Chen Du, are you serious?” Moreit asked, his tone seeking confirmation.

“Yes, I don’t plan on looking for badges anymore.”

Chen Du said in a deep voice. Then, the three walked and talked, and Chen Du explained his plan.

“What?!” Moreit and Liu Bo exclaimed simultaneously.

“You plan to take out that Musashi here?”

Thinking of the person with the samurai topknot who argued with the receptionist, the two couldn't help but feel their scalps tingle.

“Shouldn’t we be avoiding him?” Liu Bo asked, puzzled.

Chen Du didn’t answer, but said with a serious expression:

“To be frank, with my strength, getting two badges isn’t difficult.”

The two nodded, not denying it. If it weren’t for Chen Du, it would have been Moreit, Liu Bo, and Shimizu Kenji participating in the Hundred Cities Championship today.

The three of them would still have a chance to pass the first round.

Not to mention a monster like Chen Du, who had reached Perfection in the first stage.

“But I want to win the championship!”

At this, Chen Du looked at Moreit:

“First place is prestige for you, but for me, it’s life!”

“I don’t care about fame, but I really need that 1 million prize money!”

At this point, Chen Du paused, extending three fingers:

“According to the information Teacher Ling gave us, besides me, there are three strongest people in this Hundred Cities Championship.”

“One is the veteran strong team, Zhou Xiaogu and Qu Zhongtian of the Hai City Team!”

“Another is Musashi of the Lucheng Team!”

“These three’s Martial Skill, like mine, has reached Perfection in the first stage.”

“However, Zhou Xiaogu’s team is too strong; they have two first-stage Perfection cultivators, so we can’t take them on.”

“But with Musashi’s team, we have a chance!”

“Compared to encountering him in the second or third round, wouldn’t ambushing them now give us a greater chance of winning?”

“But wouldn’t that also be helping the Hai City Team eliminate a major enemy?” Liu Bo asked, confused.

Seeing this, Chen Du shook his head and said in a deep voice:

“You’re wrong, Liu Bo. If Musashi doesn’t fall here, I might not even make it into the top three, let alone win the championship!”

Looking at their puzzled eyes, Chen Du explained:

“According to normal reasoning, I, Zhou Xiaogu, Qu Zhongtian, and Musashi would all enter the second round.”

“But according to the rules, teams from the same squad won’t meet in the second round.”

At this, Chen Du suddenly stopped and said in a somewhat playful tone:

“Do you think there’s a possibility that in the second round, the System will most likely arrange for me to fight Musashi, while the other two advance normally to the third round?”

“After that, no matter if I or Musashi win the match, we will continuously encounter both of them in the third round!”

“Do you think I can consecutively defeat three first-stage Perfection cultivators?”

The two showed expressions of sudden enlightenment upon hearing this.

However, this was understandable; Moreit and Liu Bo had no chance of entering the third round, so they naturally wouldn’t think so much.

Moreit nodded thoughtfully: “No wonder you’re so determined to take out Musashi here. So that’s the reason.”

“Is it that dark?” Liu Bo still believed the System was absolutely fair and that such a probability was unlikely.

Chen Du chuckled upon hearing this, not answering. He also didn’t know if it would be so, merely speculating in the darkest possible way.

After all, Hai City No. 1 High School didn’t want the final champion to be from another school; this concerned the Face of its central city.

He then stopped discussing the topic.

“But I’m putting you two in a difficult position. I can’t guarantee I’ll win against him. If we fail, we’ll be eliminated in the first round.”

Moreit and Liu Bo exchanged glances and shrugged:

“We don’t really care. Our Martial Skill level hasn’t reached 89% of the first stage. Unless we have Heaven-Defying luck, we won’t make it to the third round anyway.”

“As for whether we fall in the first or second round, it’s just a matter of Face.”

“For Liu Bo and me, this competition is truly about participation!”

Moreit said with some emotion. His Martial Skill talent was indeed average, improved purely through 1v1 sparring.

“It’s you, though, who most likely could enter the third round, yet you choose to take a gamble here.”

Chen Du sighed helplessly.

He hadn’t originally intended to necessarily take first place, but after calculating, he found that he didn’t have enough money!

The Thunder Qi and Blood Pill’s drug resistance was almost about to appear. In that case, he might not reach level 6.5 before the National Higher Education Entrance Examination.

He had to prepare some funds to purchase other products.

“But how do you plan to find Musashi?”

“You can’t just pinpoint his location, can you?” Moreit joked.

Chen Du shook his head: “I naturally can’t pinpoint his location, but with Musashi’s personality, do you think he’ll obediently go look for those badges?”

“You mean?”

Moreit immediately guessed something after hearing this.

“Right, he will definitely go snatch them!”

“The distribution of these star markers isn’t even. I don’t know if it’s intentional.”

“Half of the star markers are concentrated near this moon marker in the bottom right corner.”

“If it were Musashi, he would definitely choose to go to the place with the most star markers, making it easier for him to snatch badges.”

“And what we need to do is to block him on the path leading to the moon marker in the bottom right corner!”

…

“Huh?”

“Has this Liangcheng Team already collected two badges?”

“Nonsense, only one.”

“Then why are they moving towards the moon marker? That’s where you report after collecting badges, right?”

The Liangcheng Team and the Kuncheng Team, as the first teams to clash in the badge competition, left a deep impression on the students watching the battle.

Especially now that the Kuncheng Team had been eliminated, many people’s attention remained on the Liangcheng Team.

Their every move would be discussed by some people.

Of course, the main discussion was about when they would be eliminated!

The Hai City Team was fighting on home ground, and Zhou Xiaogu in their team was an extremely popular player, so they naturally wouldn’t allow any outsiders to claim the championship throne.

In another VIP seating area, Zhou Cheng, sitting in the front row, watched the three figures running on the screen and took a small sip of red wine from his glass.

“Old Zhou, I didn’t expect so many students to reach Perfection in the first stage of Martial Skill this year.”

“Counting this little guy from the Liangcheng Team, there are already four.”

Zhou Cheng shook his head, a faint smile playing on his lips:

“Not quite, Mayor Qu, it’s still three…”

…

“Hmm?”

Chen Du, who was heading towards the moon marker, suddenly sensed something. He raised his hand to signal the other two to stop and made a shushing gesture.

The three exchanged glances and nodded.

Someone was fighting nearby!

The three naturally wouldn’t miss such an opportunity. If it was Musashi, that would be best. If not, they could also see if they could pick up something.

If they could find the Martial Skill badge in advance, that would also be good, so they wouldn’t have to worry about time pressure.

After all, Chen Du’s plan couldn’t guarantee a 100% encounter with Musashi.

As the three approached, the sounds of fighting grew louder.

The continuous roars of beasts made Chen Du frown.

He was too familiar with this sound; he didn’t know how many times he had heard it in the Crystal Space!

No way…

As the three approached, they finally reached the source of the sound.

They saw a team fighting a creature that stood upright like a wolf, about 3 meters tall, with claw-like appendages on the back of its hands, similar to Wolverine’s claws!

“Bibi Wolf?!”

Chen Du’s heart was greatly shaken when he saw this scene!
