In the spectator area of arena A8,
With more and more girls noticing Lu Wu, the atmosphere became increasingly strange. These girls from different teams started gathering together, whispering all kinds of comments.
"This male god is so handsome. I wonder what his name is, which school he's from, and if he has a girlfriend?"
"Look, look, he's assigning tasks to his teammates. It seems this male god is their team captain. How impressive!"
"But what's up with that chubby girl? Why is she sitting so close to my male god, and she even dares to touch him? Don't stop me, I'm going to chop her up!"
...
In just a short moment, the spectator area of the arena had already transformed into a fan club for the heartthrob.
The boys around were particularly uncomfortable.
By this point, they couldn't figure out whether their teammates were here to observe and collect information on the seed teams or just to see the heartthrob.
They couldn't comprehend it and felt all sorts of indignation.
What's so great about that guy down there? He's got one nose and two eyes just like everyone else. It's not like he's extremely more handsome than them, and his summoned beast is just a Little Skeleton, a complete weakling. What's so fascinating about him to their teammates?
Many of them felt they weren't any worse than Lu Wu and might even be better!
Of course, not many dared to say that. One guy, who was blindly confident just like them, had declared the Little Skeleton to be trash and was almost driven to tears.
"So what if his summoned beast is a Little Skeleton? Our male god is so hardworking, you know?"
All because of that one face.
Lu Wu already had a group of die-hard fans… well, uh, true love fans!
The power of true love fans is strong. The boys around them dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak. They could only direct their resentment toward Lu Wu, silently praying that the 038 team would crush this pretty boy.
They wanted to show the girls who the real men were.
Judging by Lu Wu's team's summoned beasts, they thought this scenario was very likely, no, it was absolutely going to happen.
So, they all waited to see a humiliated Lu Wu and the disillusioned expressions of the girls around him.
Amidst these guys' expectations, the 038 seed team arrived right on time.
For the 10:30 match, they arrived at 10:20.
These three youngsters had a bit of a strategy.
They knew their status as seed players would attract attention, and there would definitely be many players waiting for their arrival.
In this way, the later they arrived, the greater the psychological pressure on their opponents.
And when they did arrive, they would be even more eye-catching.
One side would enter amidst the cheers of the crowd, while the other side would wait in anxiety. Their mental states in the game would definitely be completely different, making it easier for them to secure the victory.
Yes, using tactics even when they had an absolute advantage, this 038 team certainly played dirty.
However, when they arrived, the situation was not as they had expected.
They weren't greeted with respectful and expectant gazes from the onlookers but were instead met with the fanatical rage of Lu Wu's die-hard fans.
"Who are these people, acting so high and mighty just because they are a seed team?"
"Our male god has already arrived, but they are deliberately late. No respect at all!"
"And they're so ugly. If you ask me, they should just surrender right now!"
...
The three members of the 038 team were dumbfounded.
What was happening? This was not in the script! Male god? What male god?
Their confusion lasted until the staff told them to prepare for the match below the stage and when they shook hands with Lu Wu's team. At that moment, they understood.
The 038 team's mentality collapsed on the spot.
They trembled with rage!
All this for a pretty boy whose summoned beast was just a Little Skeleton?
Was there any justice left in the world?
When would ordinary-looking guys like them ever really get to stand up?
In their fury, the captain of the 038 team, Zhang Ke, slapped away Lu Wu's hand and threw a sarcastic remark.
"I don't shake hands with trash!"
This was his last stubborn stand as a regular guy.
But that slap made the girls watching even more upset.
"Bullying, are we? Is there any decency left in you?"
"No basic manners at all. Hmph, people like him don't deserve to win!"
...
Once again, the 038 team was berated by the girls, and their faces turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. But they very sensibly didn't retaliate against the girls and instead turned all their hatred toward Lu Wu's team.
They silently vowed to themselves to ruthlessly crush Lu Wu and his team.
And immediately, they directed harsh words at Lu Wu's team.
"Pretty boy, you just wait!"
They swore to use their power to fight against this damned looks-driven world.
Lu Wu felt quite innocent about this.
He hadn't expected things to turn out like this either.
Besides, it was the girls who were berating them, so why were these guys venting their anger on him?
Sigh, it was all because of this damn unremarkable face of his.
Frustrated, Lu Wu raised his hand and asked the referee on the side, "Excuse me, can we start now?"
When Zhang Ke heard Lu Wu's words, he became even more displeased.
"What, are you in such a hurry to end your match? Very well, I will oblige. I will clear you out the moment the whistle blows."
Lu Wu ignored him and looked at the referee. The referee responded immediately, nodding and blowing the whistle to start the match.
"Action!"
Zhang Ke's team, being tactical experts with very dirty minds, launched a sneak attack even when they were absolutely dominant. Almost the moment the referee's whistle sounded, they issued their orders.
At the command, the Jungle Wolf, goblin, and goblin under 038's command immediately charged forward.
It had to be said, 038 indeed was worthy of being a seed team.
The way their summoned beasts attacked was incredibly fast and fierce, making the girls watching from the arena gasp in shock and the boys pump with adrenaline.
Each of them silently cheered for the 038 team, hoping they would crush Lu Wu's team.
They wanted the pretty boy to experience the harshness of the real world.
However, the script went off-track. As soon as 038's three summoned beasts charged over, rows of earth thorns suddenly emerged.
Thankfully, the three summoned beasts were well-trained, stopping in time to avoid the earth thorns.
But dodging didn't help. As they dodged, the Frozen Bird's cold aura erupted, instantly blanketing the three summoned beasts and significantly reducing their speed.
At the same time, Tuantuan performed a giant transformation and charged forward, directly knocking the Jungle Wolf and goblin, whose movement was restricted by the earth thorns and whose speed was reduced by the cold aura, out of the arena!
In an instant, two of the 038 team's summoned beasts were eliminated, leaving only the goblin, which had also been injured in the leg by the Frozen Bird's ice needle.
It wasn't until then that Lu Wu's Little Skeleton slowly came to the goblin, swung a bat, and finished off the already badly injured goblin.
Thus, with absolute advantage and to everyone's surprise, Lu Wu's team won their initial battle.
...
This chapter seems to have unraveled. Don't you have anything to say?
Like how handsome Nu Xiao is, for example!
