“I didn’t expect this. I wonder what the treasure hunt will be like? I’m looking forward to it.” Wu Yaxu smiled as he spoke, as if he was adjusting the stiff atmosphere.
“Mn. I’m also looking forward to it, but we won’t show any mercy.” Su Yang’s single-celled mind went unnoticed by the surrounding people.
“We’ll give it our all,” Yi Chenhao said with great enthusiasm.
“Xiao Hao-zi is all fired up. It’s really cute,” Meng Lianggu said with a strange expression.
Yi Chenhao couldn’t help but roll his. He then turned to speak to Shen Chuxia. “Senior sister, please kick him out.”
“Isn’t that Meng-shizhi and Ye-shizhi? It’s been a while.” A middle-aged man came over and greeted Meng Lianggu and Ye Luohan.
“Hello.” Ye Luohan and Meng Lianggu naturally didn’t know the identity of the person in front of them, but they couldn’t be disrespectful, let alone make them suspicious. They had to respond. After chatting with the person casually, they bid farewell. Otherwise they would have to chat more, which might arouse suspicion.
In the past, those who read through novels always thought how amazing it would be to transmigrate into it. In fact, transmigrating wasn’t really a good thing, since there were a whole bunch of people the host didn’t recognize. This increased the chance of them being suspected and outed.
Although Meng Lianggu usually looked very unreliable, he usually stepped up when it mattered, Ye Luohan even more so. He led them around, so his teammates didn’t have to be so stressed.
Even if this was the case, Ye Luohan and Meng couldn’t take care of everyone, especially after the competition started.
Ten sects came to participate in this competition. The first round turned out to be a two against two match. Since this was between immortal sects, spiritual energy would naturally be used.
Xiao Ailun, Su Lingxing, and Zhao Hanyu were instructed a bit by Luo Lingxing, so they had some understanding. Meng Lianggu’s team, however, were a little more unlucky. They didn’t have Luo Lingxing. Some of them never even experienced this before.
Therefore, when they went on stage with the others and were unable to use spiritual energy, the results could be imagined.
“How strange. As the direct disciple of the second greatest sect in the cultivation world, it doesn’t make sense for him to be so weak.” The person who had just fought Wu Yaxu walked off the stage and whispered to himself in confusion.
“What did you say?” Someone from the same couldn’t stop from asking.
“Don’t you think it’s strange? In the past, these competitions would be ruled by those two sects. But now, the direct disciple of the second-ranked sect couldn’t even make simple use of his spiritual energy. This seems impossible. Why does he look like a beginner?”
“I also think it’s strange. Isn’t he a direct disciple?” another person said.
“Impossible. Only direct disciples can participate in this competition. Why would other disciples come? Besides, I heard this batch of direct disciples are very good.”
“Then that’s even more unlikely. If the disciples were all of this strength, then their sect would have fallen long ago.”
“Do you think someone is impersonating them?”
Originally, only the person who fought Wu Yaxu had doubts, but as they discussed it more, the entire sect whispered about it. Wu Yaxu, who was the first to go on stage, was also suffering at this moment.
“I was unexpectedly the first one drawn or else I could have watched how others did it to get some experience. The program team is so ruthless,” Wu Yaxu said with a bitter smile. He knew he was eighty percent exposed.
When the first episode played, he watched the entire thing. He knew that once seeds of suspicion were sown, it rarely could be reversed.
Wu Yaxu was a little reluctant. He knew this program was produced by Jun Ling Entertainment, so he had to work hard to win this opportunity. If he was able to grasp it, his fan base would definitely increase after this program broadcasted.
He had some worries before, but after he witnessed the effect of the first episode, he was more sure of his choice. Moreover, Xia Yuan, who started around the same time as him, participated in the first episode, and his popularity had skyrocketed since. As long as he didn’t make any mistakes, his fanbase would definitely increase if he managed to stay until the end.
He just didn’t expect to be kicked down already in the first game.
At this time, he couldn’t help but complain a bit about the program team. The scene was created by the group, after all. So the order should have been predetermined by them as well. If this continued, he would be eliminated, which was also the will of the program team.
At this time, Wu Yaxu completely forgot that he was the one who drew the lottery and it was his own choice. This actually wasn’t decided by the program team.
“Yes. The program team is against us. They didn’t disclose any information in advance. Under such circumstances, this shoot was even harder than winning a script for a movie. If you’re not careful, you’ll be eliminated,” Meng Lianggu indignantly patted Wu Yaxu on the shoulder as he spoke.
With Meng Lianggu’s support, Wu Yaxu became even more unwilling. He quickly turned his head and thought about how to change his current situation. As a result, Wu Yaxu’s figure soon disappeared. Everyone knew this meant he had been suspected and recognized, so he was eliminated.
This competition had just begun, and Meng Lianggu had lost one person. Besides the nine of them, the others had returned to normal. It was as if they’d never seen Wu Yaxu. The people who created the technology for this scene were really amazing. The npcs not only had their own thoughts, they also had the ability to automatically delete information and memory of all irrelevant persons. It couldn’t be more intuitive.
With Wu Yaxu as an example, everyone else became more cautious, especially Meng Lianggu’s team. Everyone earnestly stared at the people on stage and observed how to use spiritual energy. They secretly practiced.
In fact, they all played the role of talented geniuses. They also had a lot of spiritual energy in their bodies. As long as they learned how to use it and became proficient at it, their strength would greatly improve, even in a short amount of time. But what they needed now was time.
However, if they failed the first game, their fate would be the same as Wu Yaxu’s. Anyone who failed the first game would not be able to join the next one, so everyone practiced harder.
Those who were lucky could practice more after the game. If they were unlucky and were chosen early, they would likely be defeated. And some who were chosen early were still able to defeat their opponent, such as Xiao Ailun. A beautiful cyclone appeared and directly blew his opponent off the stage. He successfully won this round.
“Tsk tsk tsk… I didn’t expect the game to be won like that.” Shen Chuxia was a little dumbfounded, but he quickly recovered. He wondered if she could also win like this.
Everyone had quite good luck. Although a few of them had a more risky game, they were able to pass this stage successfully. After the first round, everyone besides Wu Yaxu actually passed. Of course, it took them a lot of effort. This gave the fans a lot of fuel for jokes, and some even created black history for themselves that they wanted to erase from their lives. After the unanimous decision to shoot this shoot, the program team had to cut out those segments.
However, the unscrupulous program team loved seeing black histories from celebrities. They decided they wouldn’t touch those scenes and would keep them intact instead. These were all things that happened after the matter.
“Although the first game cost me half my life, being able to use spiritual energy feels amazing. I used to watch those people on TV summon the wind and rain. It feels so magical. Even though I haven’t reached that level yet, even a small ball of fire or water is something I never thought I could do,” Su Yang said excitedly. While speaking, he also made a small water ball. Because he used up most of his spiritual energy during the game, the water ball didn’t last more than a second. All the water sprinkled against his clothes and landed on his lower half. It really looked like…
“Hahah…” Everyone couldn’t help but laugh. Even the two women couldn’t help but cover their moves. Su Yang suddenly blushed. Being in a hurry, he tried to dry his clothes with a small fireball, but he clearly forgot about the “fire disaster” from earlier.
“Wait!”
“Be careful!” Everyone quickly tried to stop Su Yang, but he moved too fast. As a result, the small fireball had just appeared and dispersed. The little fireball rushed straight toward Su Yang’s clothes, creating little holes.
“I really wonder how you survived until now. Fortunately, you don’t have any spiritual energy left or else it wouldn’t only be tiny holes,” Xiao Ailun couldn’t help but say with a sigh.
“Haha, Yangyang, what were you thinking? It was just a little wet, but now they look like beggar’s clothes. The ancient version of beggar’s clothes.” Seeing that Su Yang was alright, Yi Chenhao couldn’t stop laughing.
Su Yang glared at him with dismay and quickly went to change his clothes. He was really embarrassed.
Su Yang decided that after they returned, he would find the program team and ask them to cut out this part. If they didn’t, he would surely lose fans.
However, when this episode aired, did Su Yang really lose fans? Not only did he not lose any, he also attracted tons more because of his silly nature. These fans reacted similarly to Yi Chenhao. They couldn’t stop laughing, but then ran to Su Yang’s Weibo to “comfort” their idol.
These were also things that happened later on.
Although they transmigrated together, they were now at two different sects and were opponents in this competition. But as long as they didn’t complete, they were still more friendly with each other than with other sects. So they gathered together to talk about topics only they could talk about. With other sect members, they could only speak in a way that didn’t arouse any suspicion.
The second game was scheduled for the next day, so they had the night off. Today was their third day of entering this program.
