Chapter 277 Reunion
Deng Mu nodded: "Nana is right, I'll be careful."
He remembered that such a thing didn't seem to have happened in the novel, but it was still better to be careful.
Although he wasn't afraid of such things, he was worried that something might happen to Huo Yutong and the others.
……
The next day, after the draw for the third round of the competition, everyone looked at the opponents Huo Yutong had drawn and fell into deep thought.
That team is the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team.
They didn't expect to encounter the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team so soon. Although they weren't afraid of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team, they didn't expect to be drawn by such a coincidence.
"Brother, I didn't expect we'd be fighting Deng Mu and the others. Are you happy?" Meng Hongchen asked, looking at Xiao Hongchen, whose face was all black.
During this period, she listened to Xiao Hongchen bragging every day, saying that he could take down Deng Mu with just three punches.
Unexpectedly, I was drawn into the Tang Clan team.
Meng Hongchen really wants to see her brother fight Deng Mu.
I just don't know how many punches my brother could withstand from Deng Mu after all these years.
Xiao Hongchen's face darkened, and he glared at Meng Hongchen, saying irritably, "You little brat, are you hoping your brother will embarrass himself? But it's good that they were drawn, it'll let Deng Mu know that after all these years, I, Xiao Hongchen, am not someone to be trifled with."
I don't know why, but my younger sister has been acting more and more strange lately.
Moreover, she seemed to be paying more and more attention to Deng Mu, which made him suspect that his sister might have fallen for Deng Mu.
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
How could my own sister possibly like Deng Mu? How could she possibly like that guy?
Xiao Hongchen thought to herself that her younger sister would never like Deng Mu.
He actually knew what was going on, but he was somewhat unwilling to face it.
Meng Hongchen covered her mouth and chuckled: "Brother, I wasn't hoping you'd embarrass yourself. I'm just curious. You always talk about how amazing Deng Mu is, I want to see if he's really as difficult to deal with as you say."
Xiao Hongchen snorted coldly, a hint of confidence flashing in his eyes: "Hmph, this time I'll definitely show him my power. Over the years, I've been diligently cultivating, and my strength is no longer what it used to be."
He was still a little unsure of himself when he spoke, as he was unsure of how much Deng Mu's strength had improved.
In the battle at the Earth Dragon Gate, Deng Mu still defeated his opponents with a single punch, his demeanor unchanged, but he couldn't tell whether Deng Mu's strength had changed.
"Brother, don't let me down!" Meng Hongchen blinked, looking at Xiao Hongchen with a mischievous grin. "If you lose, don't brag to me anymore."
She knew that her brother had gone to great lengths to deal with Deng Mu, neglecting his sleep and meals to cultivate and create soul tools, which had almost become his inner demon.
She is now in a dilemma; she wants her brother to win, but she also doesn't want him to win.
Xiao Hongchen patted his chest, feigning composure: "Don't worry, how could I possibly lose? I'll go back and prepare, study it carefully, and make sure Deng Mu knows how powerful I am."
Meng Hongchen just smiled and looked at Xiao Hongchen. She wanted to see if her brother could win.
She secretly thought that after the competition, she would tell Deng Mu how she felt.
She thought about it carefully over this period of time and confirmed that it was genuine affection, not just a momentary impulse.
In the Holy Spirit Battle Rest Area, Bibi Dong looked at the team she had drawn and was very dissatisfied.
She wanted to have a good fight with Deng Mu and beat him to a pulp.
"Hmph, what a spoilsport!" Bibi Dong cursed under her breath, a hint of resentment in her eyes.
Her teammates didn't dare to breathe, afraid of angering their team leader who already had a bad temper.
One of the teammates spoke up, "Holy Maiden, please don't be angry. Although we didn't encounter them this time, we can still meet the Tang Sect team in the round-robin stage."
Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow slightly, looked at the teammate who had spoken, and her expression softened: "What you said makes sense. There's still a chance in the round-robin stage. It's just that this waiting process is really frustrating."
Her desire to fight Deng Mu burned like a raging fire, undiminished in the slightest.
"Holy Maiden, let's deal with our current opponent first. With our strength, advancing shouldn't be a problem. As long as the Tang Sect team also advances smoothly, the chances of us meeting in the round-robin are still quite high," another teammate quickly chimed in.
They were now extremely puzzled. What was wrong with Bibi Dong? She wasn't like this before.
But Bibi Dong has become like this since she participated in the competition, which is really strange.
It's like Bibi Dong has a second personality.
Bibi Dong snorted coldly, "Of course. A bunch of rabble, how could they possibly stop us?"
The latest novel is first published here!
Her eyes were full of disdain, and she immediately began to think about the situation of her current opponent.
Although she was focused on her duel with Deng Mu, she would not underestimate her opponent, as any loss in any match could affect her chances of facing Deng Mu in the future.
She discovered that her opponent wasn't very strong; she just needed to deal with him seriously.
The only thing that worried her was that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team would defeat the Tang Sect team.
Deng Mu glanced at the screen and saw that their Tang Sect team was going to face off against the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team tomorrow.
"Should we stay and watch, or go back?" Deng Mu asked Huo Yutong and the others.
He felt there was no need to look. He already knew about those teams and their soul skills.
He Caitou scratched his head and said casually, "I don't think we need to watch. We know those teams very well, and watching won't reveal anything new. We'd rather go back and work on our tactics, and prepare well for tomorrow's match against the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team."
Huo Yutong nodded slightly in agreement: "He Caitou makes a good point. We are quite familiar with the strength and soul skills of the other teams. Instead of wasting time here, we should go back and refine our tactics against Xiao Hongchen and the others to ensure that we are foolproof."
Xiao Xiao and the others nodded in agreement; they thought the same thing.
Seeing this, Deng Mu said, "Alright, let's go back to the hotel then."
The group left the competition venue and headed towards the hotel.
"Hmm? Laughing at the world, long time no see."
Deng Mu saw Xiao Hongchen and his teammates returning and greeted Xiao Hongchen with a smile.
Upon hearing Deng Mu's greeting, Xiao Hongchen paused, turned around, and forced a slightly stiff smile: "Deng Mu, it really has been a long time. I've been looking forward to tomorrow's match for a long time."
Although he said that, his eyes revealed a hint of vigilance and fighting spirit.
Deng Mu responded with a smile: "Yes, I didn't expect to be able to fight again so soon. I hope there will be a wonderful match tomorrow."
