"Any thod is fine, as long as people co here, it counts as one person, regardless of whether they stay or not?" Xiaoyao asked.
"Yes!" Miss Xiaofeng nodded.
"Now you have no objections, right?" Chu Xinan asked Xiaoyao.
"None," Xiaoyao shook his head. "You start!"
"Then I'll begin. I don't want to take advantage of you, so I won't use my reputation or financial resources..."
"It's fine, go ahead and use them. Otherwise you won't accept defeat," Xiaoyao interrupted Chu Xinan's words. If you just rely on those things, what kind of Zhuge reincarnated are you? Even if you win, you'll have lost.
Xiaoyao thought wickedly, but he didn't plan to say this out loud. Too lazy to speak, if others figured it out, so be it. If not, forget it.
"No need. I rely on my wisdom, otherwise it would be aningless," Chu Xinan said lightly. He seed to understand this matter and gracefully stated it, but—
Xiaoyao muttered very quietly: "If that's the case, what were you saying just now? Weren't you just putting on an act?"
...
"..." Chu Xinan's face darkened again. If this wasn't pointed out, it would be very natural, but once pointed out, anyone would feel like he was putting on so kind of act, even if he wasn't.
Miss Xiaofeng chuckled again, looking at Xiaoyao with increasingly interested eyes. This kid seed quite ordinary on the surface, but the more she interacted with him, the more she discovered he wasn't simple.
"Cough cough, I'll go first. You all start timing and counting people," Chu Xinan stopped saying more. There was no way to continue this conversation.
He began wandering around nearby. Soon, as he moved, crowds ca toward Xiaoyao's location. The reasons seed to be everything, and there were very clever reasons too. One had to say this Chu Xinan was extraordinary.
Getting one or two people wasn't difficult, but each ti he could call over a group of people, using the shortest ti and simplest words to trick people to where Xiaoyao was. Each sche was different, this was where he displayed his wisdom. He indeed had so intelligence.
Later, more and more people ca on their own without being called. People like to watch excitent. Seeing people gathering together, so passersby would naturally co over to see what was happening, whether in the Demon Domain or the Divine Martial Continent. Though not all passersby, there were quite a few.
"Three hundred and twenty people!"
A quarter hour passed, and Chu Xinan also returned early. This seed to be a display of confidence, he felt this number was enough to defeat the slow kid Xiaoyao, more than enough.
This count of three hundred and twenty ca from Xiaofeng. There might be so errors, but not too many. Others also helped verify, all within two or three people of each other.
"No problem, no need to worry about this. I didn't plan to use these fractions anyway. As long as you exceed three hundred, I'll consider you won," Chu Xinan once again proudly raised his chin.
"Oh, that's good! Everyone start..." After Xiaoyao finished speaking, he just, stood there motionless.
"You should start! I'm about to begin timing!" Miss Xiaofeng said.
"Go ahead and start timing. I'm already preparing now. Just consider this thinking of strategies," Xiaoyao replied casually.
"..." Miss Xiaofeng fell silent. This kid wouldn't be planning to just stand here until the end, then admit defeat and walk away with her ten thousand taels, would he?
The more Miss Xiaofeng thought about it, the more likely this seed. Moreover, Xiaoyao kept not moving, just standing there looking at the scenery, then taking out the salted peanuts he had just bought to eat.
Ti passed second by second. Though only one or two minutes had passed, at this mont everyone felt like a very long ti had gone by.
Finally, Miss Xiaofeng couldn't help it and asked: "When exactly are you going to start? There's only a quarter hour, you've wasted quite a bit."
"No rush, I'm thinking of thods. Wait a bit," Xiaoyao shook his head in reply.
"If you want to think of thods, don't start yet. We can allow you to think for a while," Chu Xinan said.
"How can that work?" Xiaoyao shook his head. "That way I'd be taking advantage of you. This absolutely won't do, I won't do such things."
"..." Everyone fell silent. So Xiaoyao was doing this for this reason, he was avoiding taking advantage of Chu Xinan. But so people could think of thods imdiately, while you couldn't think of any thod even if you thought until your head broke. There was no comparison.
Fair? This felt like an inherently unfair matter.
"Then why don't you just admit defeat directly? Even if you think of a thod, there won't be ti," Miss Xiaofeng said irritably.
"Ah, that seems right too. Then I need to think faster," Xiaoyao looked surprised, making people feel even more annoyed.
"..."
"I've thought of it! I can trick people into coming over by saying sothing happened here, soone is bullying you..." Xiaoyao thought of a thod. Before he could finish speaking, Miss Xiaofeng interrupted him.
"What do you think this place is? This is the Demon Domain, Heavenly Demon City. People get bullied every day here. Who would want to watch such things? Even for , it would at most attract so people who know ," Miss Xiaofeng said irritably.
"I know this. I haven't finished speaking yet. The key isn't that soone is bullying you, but that soone has co to rescue you," Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"??" Everyone was sowhat confused. What did Xiaoyao's words an?
"Oh no, soone is being chivalrous and doing good deeds!" Xiaoyao exclaid loudly.
"..."
Everyone's jaws dropped to the ground. He actually said being chivalrous and doing good deeds was "oh no"...
However, this result seed to be jaw-dropping too. People nearby seed interested in taking a look, and it spread more and more, with everyone concentrating toward this location.
"Where, where? Who's being chivalrous and doing good deeds?"
"No way, being chivalrous and doing good deeds in Heavenly Demon City? They really ate a bear's heart and leopard's gall!"
"Exactly! Isn't this slapping our Demon Sect's face?"
"..."
These words would definitely make a group of people fall over if spoken outside, but here they seed very normal, because this was the Demon Domain, this was Heavenly Demon City. The number of people being chivalrous here was zero, this was absolutely rare stuff.
Seeing the situation before her, Miss Xiaofeng's eyes widened greatly, completely disbelieving. This was actually so sensational, it looked much better than Chu Xinan's effect just now.
Moreover, this was just from that one shout. Chu Xinan had used many thods. Though Chu Xinan's thods were all very clever, the effect didn't seem as useful as this one ti.
She didn't know whether to say this slow kid was too impressive, understanding human nature, even Heavenly Demon City people had curiosity, but their curiosity wasn't about others doing bad things, but about others doing good things. This was environntal influence.
If he hadn't considered this beforehand, then he was too lucky, randomly thinking of a thod and winning like this. In Miss Xiaofeng's opinion, she felt Xiaoyao was probably just lucky. But even so, it was quite face-slapping, making Chu Xinan unable to save face.
Indeed, Chu Xinan looked livid with anger. Though his anger was great, he could only hold it in his stomach.
"Who's being chivalrous? How co I don't see anyone?"
"Damn, who's playing with people? If I catch him, I'll definitely kill him."
"..."
However, Xiaoyao's victory also had so consequences. If these people knew he was playing with them, the consequences would be serious. But he didn't care. First, no one would know about this matter. Second, even if they knew, he'd deny it to the death, what could they do to him?
Regardless, Xiaoyao had called people over. They hadn't specified beforehand that this thod wasn't allowed. Therefore, this ti Xiaoyao very miraculously won the competition.
Well, at least in their eyes, Xiaoyao won very miraculously, but it was just luck, not real ability. Chu Xinan lost very unfairly, and precisely because it was so unfair, they found it very funny, while Chu Xinan felt very frustrated.
"Alright then, there's nothing more for to do now, right?" Xiaoyao didn't care what others thought, he only knew this matter was finished for him and he could leave.
"Yes, you can go!" Miss Xiaofeng nodded. What she wanted Xiaoyao to do was already completed. She also couldn't find excuses to keep Xiaoyao. Most importantly, seeing Chu Xinan frustrated also made her happy.
Xiaoyao bid farewell and left. This made Chu Xinan sowhat anxious. He didn't want his lifelong reputation ruined in Xiaoyao's hands. If Xiaoyao left now, he might lose to Xiaoyao for life. But if they continued competing, he could win back.
But he couldn't speak up himself. If he spoke up, it would show he couldn't accept defeat, which would make him feel very embarrassed. He looked toward a brother beside him, a brother he was very close to. He believed this brother should understand his thoughts, he could only hope the other party would understand his thoughts.
This brother seed not to disappoint him, blocking Xiaoyao and saying: "Little brother, we've only competed once. This doesn't really count, that question just now was just casually ntioned after all."
"Why did I say we needed to set rules beforehand? It was to prevent you from doing this. At first you said anything was fine with you, but after losing, you say it was just casually ntioned," Xiaoyao said sowhat disdainfully.
"..."
Chu Xinan's expression beca very colorful. He hadn't expected Xiaoyao to be waiting for him here. Though Xiaoyao didn't explicitly say it was him, this was obviously pointing at the mulberry to scold the locust tree. Everyone present could understand clearly.
"Miss Xiaofeng, do I still need to stay?" Xiaoyao only asked Miss Xiaofeng, he could ignore other people's opinions.
