The monkey resumed its sleepy expression, letting out a long yawn: "Ha...woo..."
This is the effect of G-type cancer cells. Before G-type cells are activated, they remain in an inactive state, which causes the monkey's energy level to decrease even in its normal state.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly don't want to play anymore."
The monkey, with a nonchalant air, picked at his nose and said lazily, "Although he can't kill me, I can tell that I couldn't kill him either during the battle."
"What did you say?" Brother Li's face darkened. "What the hell did you promise the company before the competition? Huh? You don't want the key to the gene lock anymore, do you?!"
The monkey waved his hand impatiently, "Oh well, whatever. What am I supposed to do if I can't beat him?" Then he yawned and walked to the back of the bench, saying leisurely, "I'm going to sleep now. Good luck with the rest of the matches."
Brother Li: "???"
The monkey darted past Brother Li, yawning sleepily as it entered the preparation area. Brother Zhang frowned, "What's wrong with this guy?"
"Who the hell knows!" Brother Li cursed. "I knew this kid couldn't be trusted!"
Linnai returned to the preparation area, and everyone immediately gathered around him.
"Brother Nai, what exactly did you do to that monkey?" Meng Feifei blinked, asking curiously, "Why did you all suddenly stop fighting and then he suddenly surrendered? Is this some kind of divine power of the White Death?"
Linna shook her head: "That's not some kind of divine power."
"Oh, is that an illusion?"
"It's not an illusion either."
Meng Feifei scratched her head: "So what kind of magic is this? It can even control people to surrender? Hehe... Can you teach me? Is this skill difficult? Can I learn it?"
“You can learn it, but it depends on your talent.” Lin Nai glanced at him: “This trick is called: Talk-no-jutsu – the art of deceiving and making empty promises.”
"Talk-no-jutsu??" Meng Feifei looked suspicious.
He had never heard of such an ability before.
Is it activated by chanting incantations?
......
With this, the round of 16 matches have all concluded.
The referee, with a toothpick in his mouth, walked to the center of the field, coughed lightly twice, and announced the results of the match into the microphone: "The round of 16 has ended. All players who have advanced to the quarterfinals, please gather in the center of the field."
Lin Nai, Meng Feifei, and Hua Lingze went up together.
The players who advanced to the quarterfinals are: Lin Nai, Meng Feifei, Hua Lingze, Lu Xiaoda, Fang Wu, Bai Liao, Bai Shou, and Mu Xun.
Soon, all eight people stood on the arena.
Cheers erupted from the audience.
Media reporters also took this opportunity to frantically film the ring from all angles with their cameras.
Countless flashes went off, quickly engulfing Lin Nai and his group.
Lin Nai, Hua Lingze, Mu Xun, and the other contestants stood calmly.
Only Meng Feifei, with a smug look on her face, waved to the audience with a grin, greeting each person on every side and blowing them kisses.
"Ahem..." The toothpick referee continued in a leisurely manner, "Tomorrow we will begin the quarterfinals and the finals, all in one day."
"We will now begin the draw for the quarterfinal matchups."
Everyone quieted down and looked up at the main screen in the stadium.
On the main screen, the names of the top eight contestants were scrolling rapidly.
The group assignments were announced very quickly.
[Match 1, Night Watchers Academy, Meng Feifei vs. Zecheng High School, Bai Liao.]
[Second match, Kyoto University, Hua Lingze vs. the Gene Company's affiliated college, White Beast.]
[Match 3, Night Watch Academy, Linnai vs. Mohist Academy, Lu Xiaoda.]
[Fourth match, Military Academy: Fang Wu vs. Guigu Academy: Mu Xun.]
Linnaeus pondered.
Hmm... Is the next opponent Lu Xiaoda from the Mo family?
The mechanic who operates the toys... according to Truman, should also be a formidable opponent.
When Meng Feifei saw the match list, the smile on her face froze instantly.
"Holy crap? No way?"
Meng Feifei clutched her head, looking pained. "How could I have ended up fighting with that white-haired madman? My luck can't be that bad, can it??"
Bai Liao glanced at the match list and curled his lip in disdain: "Tch..."
What bad luck.
I missed out on Lin Nai and Mu Xun again...
Moreover, they were even drawn against the weakest team in the quarterfinals.
Bai Liao had fought Meng Feifei before. With his assassin attributes, he could basically completely counter Meng Feifei's sniper attributes.
Therefore, he felt that there was no suspense at all in this match.
Hua Lingze glanced at the white beast standing not far away.
The white beast happened to be looking at him as well. Upon seeing this, Hua Lingze gave a habitual, faint smile—he always wore this smiling expression on everyone's face.
The white beast snorted coldly, turned his head away with a stern face, and the white-faced giant's eyes were as cold as a ten-thousand-year-old glacier.
Upon seeing the match list, Fang Wu clenched his fist slightly, biting the inside of his lower lip with his canine teeth, a burning sensation rising in his chest.
In the quarterfinals, I'll face Mu Xunmo...
The Yin-Yang School prepares for battle.
Su Qingxue looked at the list of the top eight contestants, her feelings were somewhat complicated.
She originally believed that she was at least capable of reaching the top 8, or even higher, in this competition...
