Chapter 691: She Was Still A Kid
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Xijiu had a rough idea of their weaknesses, and although she did not have the confidence to win, she thought that it worth a try!
She told her teammates their new strategy, and the two of them knew that it was a very crucial match, so they listened very carefully.
When the three of them returned to the stage, Yun Qingluo looked at them and sighed, "Do you all still want to continue? I had not used my full effort just now. I am afraid that I can’t control my force in the next match."
Gu Xijiu only said a few words, "Best of three games."
Lan Waihu also said, "We still have a chance."
Le Zixing chuckled, "You guys can only play one more match." She hinted that Gu Xijiu and the team would lose in the second match.
Yun Qingluo glanced at Gu Xijiu, "To be honest, it is meaningless to win against a team like yours anyway. So be it! I give you guys a chance, as long as you guys win one match out of the remaining two, you win the compet.i.tion. What do you think?"
She wanted to show off in front of Celestial Master Zuo and also wanted to embarra.s.s Gu Xijiu. Therefore, she tried to act generously and gave such an offer.
Once she spoke out such an offer in public, Gu Xijiu and her team should not reject the offer. If they did not dare to accept the offer, they would not only lose the compet.i.tion but also lose their pride.
Indeed, Gu Xijiu did not reject. She stared at Yun Qingluo, "Are you serious?"
"Of course," Yun Qingluo answered without hesitation.
Gu Xijiu laughed, "This is not something that can be decided between you and I. We have to let the main judges decide, as well as our teammates."
Yun Qingluo did not expect that Gu Xijiu would try to avoid the responsibility to decide. She looked at her teammates and asked, "Do you all agree?"
The twins looked at each other then they answered, "We don’t mind."
Although Qian Lingyu and Lan Waihu knew that the chance to win was not significant even if there was an additional match, they did not want to lose their pride and answered together, "We will listen to Xijiu!"
It meant that both parties had agreed to this offer. Therefore everyone looked to the direction where the main judges were seated.
Gu Canmo frowned. He was rich in life experience thus he was clear of Yun Qingluo’s intention.
Although Gu Xijiu had cheated him of a lot of spiritual stones and even put him under punishment for a few months, he admired this little girl.
She was truthful and had her own principles. It was very hard for people to dislike her. Although Yun Qingluo was a heaven’s gift disciple, he always felt she had nothing special about her.
Gu Canmo organized this compet.i.tion with the intention to increase the enthusiasm of the students in Tianju Hall. A girl had to be very capable to make her mark here. To be frank, it was out of his expectation that they would make it this far, and he was pleased enough to see Gu Xijiu with her two companions come to the stage. He thought that there was no need to let this girl be embarra.s.sed in public.
After all, she just broke up from a relationship too, and Celestial Master Zuo deliberately pampered his new lover in front of his old one. Even a mature lady would be heartbroken if she encountered such a situation, not to mention a little girl like Gu Xijiu who was still a kid.
