Over there, Lu Wu dragged Dudu into the rest area.
On this side, Tuantuan was being chased by a mad bull to the point of utter misery.
The bull's eyes were bloodshot as it lowered its head, its horns aiming straight for the pig's rear with a fierce thrust.
In the first few charges, Tuantuan managed to dodge, but on the fourth, Tuantuan couldn't escape and had no choice but to apply the gravity it had been using on the bull onto itself.
Turning its head, it attempted to counter the bull with the pressure of tenfold gravity.
This move certainly increased the pig's strength, allowing it to stand firr. A pig and a bull collided head-on; unusually, the pig didn't get pushed back, but the cost was taking the full force of the bull's impact.
Just from that one blow, Tuantuan's head was buzzing.
And the bull had no intention of stopping after just one hit. It would step back a few paces after each collision, then charge again.
After the second hit, Tuantuan's condition was no longer just a buzzing in the head; its tusks trembled, and its gigantic form dimd.
But the mad bull didn't stop, hitting the pig over and over.
Each strike made the pig's body tremble.
Anyone could see the pig's dire situation.
And yet, strangely, its owner couldn't see it.
No, that's wrong, they couldn't see it even if they wanted to; those two were now in the rest area.
Who knows what they were up to, there was no sign of movent for a long ti, nor any intention of coming out.
This made the audience particularly anxious.
Even Zhang Wentao was clueless.
"What's going on with Xiao Lu and the others?"
"Didn't Xiao Lu say they were about to cheat?"
Zhao Kai Ming, rembering the Vermilion Fruit he had soone send to Lu Wu, and recalling what Lu Wu said about Dudu's Bonds Skill, couldn't help but grin.
"Old Zhang, rest assured, Xiao Lu has an ace up his sleeve, I guarantee you, this round..."
As soon as Zhang Wentao heard this and saw Zhao Kai Ming's confident expression, he hurriedly stepped forward to cover his mouth.
"You might as well not speak at all. If you say sothing, even if there's hope for Xiao Lu and the others, it'll turn into no hope."
Zhao Kai Ming's jinxing was famous in Fucheng.
Whenever he had this deanor and spoke, he was almost always faced with a contradiction, and yet he himself was never aware of it.
"What's wrong with what I'm saying? Don't act as if everything I say turns out the opposite, okay? You all are just too superstitious. If I were really that accurate, let just say Xiao Lu is going to lose this round, and the pig is going to kneel, then does it an that imdiately..."
"Boom!"
Before he finished speaking, a loud noise erupted from the arena—the bull was actually sent flying.
In that instant, it wasn't just Zhang Wentao who was dumbfounded; even Zhao Kai Ming was stunned.
Could his words really be that effective?
And it wasn't just them who were dumbstruck; the spectators and those in the 044 area were all in shock.
Because at that mont, right there in the arena,
In the midst of that loud noise, a huge transformation had occurred in Tuantuan's form.
The pig's size had increased substantially, its body stretching to three ters high and five ters long, and not just that, at this very mont, a thick layer of black earth armor protected its entire body from head to toe.
This astonishing transformation led people from the 044 side to want to raise their hands and accuse the other side of cheating.
Even in the Pupil Fire of the Little Skeleton was pure incredulity.
How could Tuantuan beco so huge all of a sudden?
The clever Little Skeleton imdiately thought of the words Lu Wu had said just before entering the rest area. It had been curious about how Lu Wu was going to cheat and had wanted to follow him in.
But it was kicked out by Lu Wu.
Now, seeing Tuantuan transform like this, a huge idea dawned on Little Skeleton's little skull.
"Cheating is so powerful, I want Lu Wu to help cheat too!"
As the audience was shocked and Little Skeleton tilted its head, pondering how to make Lu Wu help it cheat, the pig that had successfully cheated started its counterattack.
This pig was also one that held grudges.
It rembered all the hits it had taken from the bull just now.
Now that Tuantuan had grown stronger, of course, it wanted to give back as good as it got. Tuantuan's hind legs pushed off the ground as it charged toward the bull.
The pig, having completed its cheating, launched a charge that was completely different from before, far, far stronger.
An ordinary Summoned Beast would have kept its distance, but this bull was not ordinary.
Being in a Mad Bull State, it didn't know the aning of fear and chose to face the charge head-on. The pig and the bull collided once more, but this ti the outco was completely different.
The bull was at a disadvantage, and the pig completely overpowered it, sending it flying several ters with a thrust.
Tuantuan was triumphantly smug, raising its snout and directly butting the bull upwards, the gravity applied to the bull erasing its weight.
Seizing the opportunity, Tuantuan slamd into the bull again, knocking it out of the arena and effortlessly winning the match.
"Damn it! Just like that, it's a loss?!"
Watching his bull get knocked out of the arena, Li Kui felt extrely frustrated.
This was the most frustrating abnormal battle he had ever fought.
If the opponent had brought out their current strength from the start, Li Kui would have accepted his loss without any hard feelings.
But they hadn't, and the pig had cheated its way up.
Unable to beat its opponent, it simply leveled up, from 2 stars to 3 stars.
Still unable to beat the opponent, it outright cheated, sohow gaining a surge of power, and then the bull, which had been at a distinct advantage, was instantly defeated.
What made it even more unbearable for him was that at that mont, Lu Wu, who had just entered the small room, erged with a look of bafflent.
"Eh, we won?"
Hearing this, Li Kui's ntality almost collapsed.
Talk about overdoing it!
That's not how you pretend to be clueless!
And what sent Li Kui into a ntal breakdown was, when he turned his head to look at Lu Wu, he suddenly discovered Lu Wu leading a girl wearing a mask.
Well, she was a girl wearing a mask and yet gave off an impression of devastating beauty that tugged at the heartstrings.
The mont everyone saw this girl, the cultured ones were already reciting poems and verses that popped into their head on the spot.
How her form was like, graceful as a startled swan, elegant as a wandering dragon.
How she seed like a light cloud veiling the moon or a flowing breeze carrying back the snow.
All sorts of tiny verses were being misused,
while those like Nu Xiao who lacked culture had already started shouting "Oh crap".
It could be said that Dudu, without even showing her face, had managed to throw the entire audience off course; at this mont, no one was paying attention to the pig that had won.
All the spectators had one thought in their minds.
If she's like this with the mask on, what sort of beauty would she be if she took it off?
This made Lu Wu very unhappy.
He had put a mask on Dudu precisely to prevent others from seeing his wife, but he hadn't expected that even with the mask on, the whole crowd would still stare at his wife.
His wife, Lu Wu's wife, was not for your viewing pleasure!
No one was allowed to look!
With his magnanimous heart, Lu Wu imdiately led Dudu back to the resting room.
He himself stood at the doorway, looking as if he would chop down anyone who dared co close to looking at his wife.
"Pfft, jerk!"
Brought one girl inside, and then brought another one out, and still not letting anyone look!
The crowd silently labeled Lu Wu as a jerk, with none more fervent than the Hengheng Monster who was holding a cat and watching the match.
And the one with the most significant reaction was Jiang Yuexing, who, when she saw Dudu, shattered the one-way glass in front of her. Luckily, at that mont, the entire audience's attention was on Dudu, and nobody noticed it happening.
Only Lu Wu felt as if he was chilling to the bone.
Feeling like even his bones were growing ice, he couldn't help but think,
When he was weak, should he fatten up Dudu a bit more to stay safe?
......
After Dudu returned to the resting room, the audience finally redirected their attention back to the competition.
On his end, Lu Wu let Little Skeleton guard the door while he took the ti to run over to the edge of the arena to check Tuantuan's attributes.

......
Looking at Tuantuan's attributes, the corners of Lu Wu's mouth lifted in a smile.
The level of power Tuantuan now possessed was terrifying, and this bolstered Lu Wu's confidence in taking down number 044 a notch.
But he still didn't dare to claim he could beat 044 with absolute certainty, for 044's strength was indeed extraordinary.
At the very mont Lu Wu was examining Tuantuan's attributes, 044's second summoned beast entered the stage.
When Lu Wu saw this particular summoned beast, his eyes narrowed slightly.

This was the first ti Lu Wu had encountered a summoned beast with no emotional fluctuations, and although its attributes seed average, he felt it would be a very troubleso opponent.
Sure enough, right after the Shadow Assassin entered the stage, and the judge announced the start, it vanished into thin air right before everyone's eyes.
The next mont, a thin wound appeared on the thick Earth Armor covering Tuantuan…
