Chapter 130 Winning Streak
As the two were chatting happily, Bai Lu suddenly walked over and said to Tao Tao with displeasure, "You kept this from me for so long. No wonder you refused to cooperate with me. It turns out you were hiding your strength. But junior sister, Li Kuo is only average. The opponents later on will be even more difficult to deal with. If you want to win, you'd better know some information."
Unexpectedly, Bai Lu started trying to win over Tao Tao again, showing that she was shameless to the extreme.
Tao Tao hadn't planned to cooperate with her in the first place, and now that Song Chaofeng was here, there was no need to worry about not having a teammate for the two-person duel, so there was no need to consider this person at all.
"It's okay, you'll find out during the competition." Tao Tao looked completely innocent, showing no interest whatsoever in what Bai Lu was saying.
This time, Bai Lu wasn't in a hurry. She simply sat down next to Tao Tao and said earnestly, "That's because you don't understand. You won this time, and a lot of people will definitely be paying attention to you. It won't be long before your information is exposed. At that time, your opponents will know you, but you won't know your opponents, so your chances of winning won't be very high."
"You said it yourself, the probability is low, but it doesn't mean I can't win." Tao Tao isn't afraid of anyone knowing her information. She hasn't revealed much, so who would know more than she does? Besides, it doesn't matter if they do know, unless her strength is suppressed too much, she generally won't lose.
Besides, this is a Class C martial arts arena; the truly powerful ones have all gone up there, so the remaining ones are nothing to fear.
"You, I've tried everything, good and bad, but you're completely unmoved. It seems you're very confident in yourself. Aren't you afraid of being caught off guard? Let me tell you, don't underestimate your opponent. You'll get your comeuppance someday."
Bai Lu was furious, thinking Tao Tao was incredibly foolish for not wanting such a good opportunity.
Of course, she was more concerned about Tao Tao's strength. Knowing that she was capable, she naturally wanted to team up with her. In the future, they could compete in a two-person contest to get points, and she could also get the lion's share. Wouldn't that be a sure win?
However, Tao Tao would never give her that chance. Even if Song Chaofeng didn't come, Tao Tao wouldn't agree. Bai Lu thought too simply about people. She really thought that others wouldn't consider so much. Her tricks were only suitable for those with low cultivation levels who wanted to get some points, so they didn't care about a little more or less.
No matter how angry Bai Lu was, Tao Tao didn't seem to care at all. Bai Lu was so angry that her face turned ashen. Just as she was about to say something more, she and one of the people with her came over and said to her, "It's your turn to go on stage soon."
"I'm skipping this one, I'll try again next time." Bai Lu was quite decisive, skipping the game outright. It seems she has some self-awareness.
"A bye? Fine, the Sword Forging Sect is not to be underestimated, it's better not to give away points for nothing."
"Yes, I am much more self-aware than some people."
Before leaving, Bai Lu couldn't help but leave a sarcastic remark to Tao Tao, showing that Tao Tao's rejection of her again had been a big blow to her, and she couldn't swallow her anger no matter what.
After they left, Tao Tao chatted with Song Chaofeng casually, without mentioning Bai Lu at all.
"Hmph, she's so stubborn, it's infuriating!" Bai Lu gritted her teeth in anger. She had only been pretending to be calm; she had a feeling that the duck that was about to be eaten had flown away.
The person with her comforted her, saying, "Just find someone else. They are obviously capable and definitely don't need us. Even if you force a cooperation, it won't work."
"She thinks she's strong? Just because she beat Li Kuo doesn't mean she's invincible. There are plenty of strong players in the C-level arena. Does she really think she can keep winning? With our help, at least she can be more stable."
"But she just doesn't want to, there's nothing we can do about it."
"I'm just waiting to see how badly she loses!"
Bai Lu was unwilling to give up and wanted to continue waiting to see Tao Tao make a fool of himself, but she was disappointed. Tao Tao won all the following matches beautifully, and his speed was also very fast. He hardly revealed any of his strength and suddenly became the most eye-catching presence in the Class C martial arts arena.
Just as Tao Tao initially thought, there weren't many strong characters in the C-level arena; most of them had already moved up to the higher levels. If she couldn't beat the remaining ones, there was no point in competing for third place.
Watching Tao Tao win time and time again, Bai Lu's face grew increasingly grim, as if she had swallowed a fly.
"I told you she was hiding her strength. Winning once might have been lucky, but winning so many times shows she's not simple." The people who were gathering intelligence with Bai Lu kept praising Tao Tao, which made Bai Lu even angrier. She retorted angrily, "So what? Does she think she can go to the Class B arena?"
"That's hard to say. Judging from her momentum, I feel like she could easily get into a top-tier university."
"..."
Bai Lu rolled her eyes in anger and didn't want to say another word.
After winning several games in a row, Tao Tao's momentum naturally soared, and many people began to try to recruit her to team up for the duo matches. At first, these people didn't think much of her, but they suddenly changed their tune.
"Sorry, I've already teamed up with someone else. You'll have to find someone else." Tao Tao refused them one by one, indicating that he didn't want to team up with them. Some of them still wouldn't give up, thinking that Tao Tao was deliberately making excuses for them, and kept asking, "Who did you team up with? You have to choose your teammates carefully, otherwise it won't be good if they drag you down."
Tao Tao smiled sweetly, "It's okay, he won't."
Besides, she didn't mind. There was no question of one person holding the other back when the two of them were together. Even if someone really needed her help, it wouldn't be a problem as long as they got along well. Besides, that person was Song Chaofeng.
"Then I hope you can continue your winning streak in the two-person duels."
Those people quickly dispersed, and Tao Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief, sticking out her tongue at Song Chaofeng.
After several matches throughout the day, Tao Tao continued her winning streak and had almost secured first place in the Class C competition. She had accumulated quite a few points, but she was still far behind the leaders, as they were also continuing their matches and their points were not decreasing.
During this period, Song Chaofeng also participated in several matches, with wins and losses, which was within his expectations. In short, he just hoped not to lose too badly.
As dusk approached, Tao Tao's final match was about to begin. Many people were watching to see who would be so unlucky as to run into her. Those they once thought were formidable had all suffered crushing defeats when they faced Tao Tao. They wondered if anyone could break Tao Tao's winning streak.
Just as everyone was looking forward to Tao Tao's final match, Tao Tao's token suddenly trembled. At the same time, the list of the next few matches was displayed on the light wall, including Tao Tao's name. And her opponent was none other than Bai Lu.
When Bai Lu saw the list, she was dumbfounded. Logically speaking, Tao Tao should not have been matched with her after winning so many games. Who knew that she would be so unlucky as to run into her.
The key issue is that she was unwilling to accept it. If the venue was empty, wouldn't she be looked down upon, especially by Tao Tao?
With that thought in mind, she gritted her teeth and made a decision in secret.
"Is this a bye?" the person next to me asked quietly, knowing immediately that they shouldn't go; it was a game with no chance of winning.
To everyone's surprise, Bai Lu firmly said, "Of course not, I want to compete with her."
"Are you crazy? Didn't you see she's winning in a row? We still don't know what tricks she's using."
"Don't I have a backup plan? If I don't teach her a lesson, she'll really think she's something special."
