However, Gu Shi did not expect that even though he had clearly given up the idea of ​​fighting, there were still people who were ungrateful enough to come up and provoke him.

"Oh, you are Gu Shi? Hiding in the corner like this, you must be scared, right? I thought you were so powerful, huh, you coward.

People like you should just stay in the academy, but you actually run out and embarrass yourself."

A sarcastic voice sounded from behind Gu Shi. He turned around and saw that it was the student who had been ill-intentioned towards him before.

Gu Shi wasn't the type to let others bully him. When others provoked him, he immediately retorted, "Who are you? It's not your place to tell me what to do. Before you say something like that, you should look in the mirror and see if you're worthy enough."

"You, you," the man's face turned red and his breathing became rapid, as if he was about to explode.

No way, you can’t stand it?

Gu Shi didn't expect that his words could cause such great harm to him. This man's psychological endurance is too fragile.

The man took a long breath before speaking again: "Listen to me, my name is Dean Ferguson, and you will soon be defeated by me."

Gu Shi looked at him talking to himself and said speechlessly, "Is there something wrong with your ears? I don't think I ever said I wanted to fight you."

Dean immediately understood Gu Shi's words as a sign of cowardice. He taunted him, "I think you're afraid of losing face, so you don't dare to fight me."

Since this person came up to him and asked for a beating, Gu Shi would not try to persuade him any further. He just said, "Who will be embarrassed later?"

For a guy like this who doesn't understand what people say, beating him up is more effective than saying a thousand words to him.

Dean crossed his arms, as if victory was already destined for him. "Hmph, if you lose later, you'll have to quit the sect and stop bringing shame to your teacher."

Gu Shi's eyes widened instantly. This guy really had a problem with his brain, right? Putting aside his logical problems, no normal person would obediently do what he said.

He was going to quit his master's sect because of a strange competition? That could only mean that he was as mentally ill as Dean. Quitting the sect could be considered a good deed for his master.

The key point is that Dean didn't say he wanted to sign a contract with Gu Shi or anything. It was just a verbal agreement, which made it hard for people not to doubt his IQ.

Gu Shi also judged Dean's motive for targeting him from this sentence. It turned out that Dean came to provoke him because he took Field as his master.

Gu Shi just said that he had not offended anyone.

Gu Shi looked at Dean as if he was a fool and said, "If you lose, then you have to yell three times in your place, 'I, Dean Ferguson, am a fool.'"

"You! Just wait!"

The two men found a nearby arena and lined up.

While waiting in line, Dean did not forget his original intention and insisted on mocking Gu Shi from time to time.

Gu Shi naturally wouldn't indulge Dean. Although he didn't usually curse, he had seen pigs run even if he had never eaten pork. He also didn't spend so much time on the Internet on Blue Star in vain. He made Dean so angry in a few words that he didn't want to speak anymore.

The queue was formed quite quickly and soon they were standing on both sides of the ring.

Dean Ferguson looked at the black-haired wizard opposite him who took out a staff and sneered in his heart. This student named Gu Shi finally accepted his challenge, which was worth his disguise as a fool.

During the quarrel with Gu Shi just now, Dean almost couldn't hold back. He wanted to give up pretending and rush up to fight him. This guy's tongue was really powerful.

But after this, Gu Shi will never have the chance to provoke him again. Dean thought so and smiled sinisterly. As long as he used that thing later, Gu Shi would never be able to be compared with him again.

By then, Gu Shi will be under his feet forever, and he can do whatever he wants to Gu Shi. Dean will definitely let Gu Shi see that there will be no good consequences if he offends him.

Gu Shi, who was standing on the other side of the ring, felt a chill on his back for no apparent reason. He still trusted his intuition. Looking at Dean who was staring at him intently, he silently became more alert to him.

Although there are many idiots in this world, it is rare to find someone as stupid as Dean. There are only two possibilities: either he is pretending, or he is really that stupid.

If it was the former, and someone inexplicably pretended to be stupid to provoke him, it meant that there was some conspiracy against Gu Shi, and he had to deal with it carefully.

If it's the latter...

Sometimes these stupid and bad guys can cause twice as much damage.

In any case, it's always better to be careful.

Gu Shi could feel that the malice in Dean's eyes towards him was becoming stronger and stronger, and the expression on his face showed that he was planning something bad.

No matter what cards this guy has hidden, as long as he can't play them, they will all be useless.

Thinking of this, Gu Shi clenched the staff in his hand, and when the unnecessary thoughts were cleared from his mind, he focused on the opponent in front of him, ready to give Dean a good beating in the next battle.

"The game begins!"

As soon as the referee's voice fell, Gu Shi quickly raised the elemental shield and launched an attack with all his strength.

In front of Gu Shi, many small wind blades appeared out of thin air and combined into a huge wind blade, flying towards Dean rapidly.

The wind blade directly tore apart the elemental shield that Dean had just released and hit his body.

Dean, who had not expected this situation, was knocked off the ring by the impact of the attack with an expression of disbelief on his face, and hit the wall behind him heavily, making a loud noise.

Gu Shi was stunned when he saw this scene. The second magic spell was still ready to be cast on the staff in his hand, but his opponent had already been knocked off the stage.

How come it ended so anticlimactically?

Gu Shi reflected on himself and wondered if he had overestimated Dean's strength, which led to the current situation.

The referee didn't react either. He was stunned for several seconds before saying, "The winner is decided. The game is over."

After saying that, he immediately rushed to Dean and checked his injuries.

Gu Shi didn't care about Dean's condition and walked straight off the ring. He was not kind enough to care about the injuries of an enemy who had bad intentions towards him.

As for the bet, just think of it as him taking pity on Dean and letting him off the hook.
