Chapter 370: High Expectations

Lin Mu guessed and pondered secretly, with a stern look on his face.

Sikong Pan seemed to see what Lin Mu was thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, just go all out. According to the current competition rules, for you, becoming the top four in the competition is just a foregone conclusion. Even if you lose to Xing Yun in the next game, you will have a big battle with Xing Yun after entering the final top three battle!"

Lin Mu looked at Sikong Pan with a smile, and seemed to understand: "You mean, I don't want to fight for victory with all my strength?"

Sikong Pan sneered: "It's easy to talk to you. That's right, in the next competition, don't use all your strength. strength, but to go all out, force Xing Yun to show his true strength, and adapt to Xing Yun's attack pattern, so that he can be targeted in the next competition and make a splash! "

Lin Mu nodded gently: "I will try my best."

His thoughts are exactly the same as Si Kong Pan's. The tour is not the final battle. Even if he shows his true strength and fights Xing Yun, even if he wins by chance, in the subsequent decisive battle, because all the trump cards are out, he will lose a lot of opportunities and initiative. In such a high-level battle, any small mistake or negligence will lead to failure! If you can take the initiative, the advantage is extremely huge!

"For this bet, I have placed all my hopes on you." Si Kong Pan's face was serious, looking at Lin Mu and said: "I hope you can beat him! It's considered helping me once, and I owe you a favor, and I will definitely repay you in the future!"

The strong desire in Si Kong Pan's eyes shocked even Lin Mu.

He has never seen a person's eyes reveal such a persistent and resolute will to fight, and he will not give up until he achieves his goal.

Lin Mu was shocked. If someone became enemies with a cultivator like Sikong Pan, it would be unwise.

"You don't have to tell me. I also want to defeat Xing Yun." Several thoughts flashed through Lin Mu's mind, and he said solemnly: "But I can't guarantee anything. You should also think carefully when you set up a gambling game. If I can't beat Xing Yun, I hope you won't lose money."

Sikong Pan smiled slightly: "Don't worry about this. I can afford to lose this amount of spiritual stones. But I hope more that you can defeat Xing Yun in the competition, and I can make a lot of money in the gambling game. I will work in this direction in the future."

"Before, I was planning to increase your odds. Now it seems that since you are the first in my heart, there is no need to raise the odds. I will pay more by then." Sikong Pan smiled and said: "After the next competition, I will increase Xing Yun's odds crazily. If you are not sure of winning, it is better to show weakness and lose first to explore his details. It would be best if you can If I lose miserably, I can set off Xing Yun, so that more people will bet on him! "

Lin Mu nodded and said, "If you insist on doing this, I can't do it. I can only do my best. If I really can't compete with Xing Yun in the end, I will do as you say and lose miserably. But I really want to remind you again, don't put all your hopes on me. I have never competed with Xing Yun, and I have no idea at all. "

Si Kong Pan smiled indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter, this is all my own will. I just want to say hello to you in advance. Although you and I are trading, my purpose is not to make a lot of spiritual stones. Even if you lose to Xing Yun, even if I can't make a spiritual stone, I may even lose money. I am satisfied to get to know you. "

This sentence praised Lin Mu very much, but Si Kong Pan spoke very seriously, and it didn't sound like flattery, and there was no need for that!

Lin Mu felt a little warm in his heart, but he had heard too many flattering words, and he was still a little surprised when Si Kong Pan said this suddenly. A look of surprise flashed across his face, and Lin Mu couldn't help but think of the time when Xing Yun also wanted to get acquainted with him and invited him to have a drink together, but he was eager to recover his cultivation at that time and flatly refused.

Now thinking about it, with Xing Yun's strength, there is no need to delay his recovery. Perhaps, he really wants to get to know me!

Sikong Pan and Xing Yun are both from the middle world Lancai Realm. According to Sikong Pan, the two of them are not on good terms and want to suppress each other. Even if they are not opponents, they are at least in a competitive relationship. Judging from Sikong Pan's performance, these two people in Lancai Realm must not be simple characters.

Xing Yun's practice of "Cloud Sea Sword Art" has reached the seventh grade!

Wushuang Zhenren practiced only the fifth grade sword art.

The wealth and background of these two people are extremely unfathomable, completely beyond Lin Mu's imagination.

What makes Lin Mu wonder is, why do these two people want to get to know him one after another?

Is it intentional or unintentional?

Although Sikong Pan likes to take the initiative, he is not arrogant. However, he is very indifferent to Yin Xin, but very enthusiastic to himself. Lin Mu is meticulous, and thinking of these details, he can't help but be more confused.

Why?

What is the purpose of Sikong Pan and Xing Yun going to Tianxiao Realm?

Lin Mu is puzzled.

Seeing Lin Mu's puzzled face, Sikong Pan smiled but did not speak. After a while, he bowed and said goodbye: "The competition is about to start. I hope you will work hard to break through and strengthen your strength. If you feel defeated, just admit defeat. Don't use your sword skills in succession. I hope you can make a sudden breakthrough in the last game, make a stunning debut, defeat Xing Yun, and shine!"

Lin Mu retracted his thoughts and nodded with a smile.

Sikong Pan waved his hand, and the restriction in front of him disappeared. He bowed slightly to Lin Mu and left.

Looking at Sikong Pan's back, Lin Mu's imagination ran wild, and he made various guesses in his mind from time to time. His thoughts flew, his brows were sometimes furrowed, sometimes relaxed, his face was sometimes worried, sometimes happy, flashing one by one.

With a sigh, Lin Mu paused, and with a flash of golden light, he flew back to Piaoyun Peak on his sword.

After returning to Piaoyun Peak, Yin Xin did not ask about Lin Mu's conversation with Sikong Pan. Lin Mu took the initiative to say that Sikong Pan and Xing Yun were both cultivators of Lancai Realm. Xing Yun practiced sword tactics as high as the seventh level, but he has not yet comprehended the sword skills.

After hearing this, Yin Xin looked calm and said to Lin Mu: "I have seen some clues. In the next competition, you don't want to win, just lose deliberately, but you have to show that you have tried your best. When you enter the first decisive battle, you will show all your strength and catch him off guard."

Lin Mu smiled and nodded: "Disciple understands."

Showing weakness to the enemy and hiding strength, he has always done a good job in this regard.

After saying goodbye to Yinxin, Lin Mu returned to the cave, entered the quiet room, flashed into the Xuanyue space, and began to practice sword skills.

Huajin Waterfall Lin Mu had already comprehended it, and now he can perform two consecutive sword skills without any problems.

Jinling Jishu, Lin Mu has just perfected the flaws in his sword skills. If he wants to increase the power to a certain level, he still needs to comprehend it slowly. Going further, comprehending the two consecutive sword skills will take more time. Lin Mu couldn't help but feel fortunate. The battle with Chu Zhu at the beginning brought him great pressure, but his strength growth was also rapid and had essential changes.

The two consecutive sword skills completely raised his strength to another level.

At the beginning, he suddenly performed two consecutive sword skills, and Chu Zhu was caught off guard, so he was defeated by him. At that time, the power of his consecutive sword skills was not perfect, but now, he can perform consecutive sword skills at will. Against a mid-stage Jindan cultivator, he is confident that he has more than 60% chance of winning!

This is without taking the thousand-year spiritual milk. If he takes the thousand-year spiritual milk, he has an 80% chance of defeating a mid-stage Jindan cultivator!

But with such strength, he is not sure to beat Xing Yun. Even if Sikong Pan tells him Xing Yun's details, he dare not despise him at all.

The power of the seventh-grade sword art is too strong. The power of the sword moves can be comparable to that of ordinary people's sword skills. It is also extremely fast, at least three times faster than other people's sword skills! What makes Lin Mu even more unsure is that he doesn't know whether what Sikong Pan said is true or false. Even if it is true, it is hard to guarantee that Xing Yun is hiding his strength, and Sikong Pan has no way of knowing it.

With Xing Yun's identity and background, it is very likely that he has hidden a trump card!

In the next competition, Lin Mu is determined that no matter what, he must force Xing Yun to show his true strength!

Practicing sword skills in the sea of ​​consciousness, Lin Mu's heart gradually calms down and soon immerses himself in it.

The power of the Golden Spirit Shuttle is getting stronger and stronger under Lin Mu's constant deduction and attempts, and it is already approaching Huajin Falls!

Lin Mu was confident that if he was given some more time, he could also perform two consecutive sword skills with the Golden Spirit Shuttle!

Six days later, Lin Mu appeared outside the cave. He did not say much to Yin Xin and the others. After a brief greeting, they went to Wuling Peak together.

As soon as he arrived at Wuling Peak, Lin Mu saw a huge crowd of people below, all looking forward to it and cheering loudly!

Seeing Lin Mu's figure, the onlookers were very excited.

"Lin Mu is here!"

"Lin Mu is here!"

"After this competition, the situation of the competition will be clear!"

At least 80% of the tens of thousands of cultivators are looking forward to the competition between Lin Mu and Xing Yun.

So far, Xing Yun has not lost a single game in the competition, and Lin Mu is not much inferior. Whenever he participates in a competition, he wins without exception! The only defeat was because he was injured and could not participate in the competition.

"Peak duel!" Feng Hou was very excited and said to Ma Hong, who was also very excited beside him.

"Xing Yun will win!"

"Lin Mu will definitely win!"

Various cheers and arguments were heard, and the entire Wuling Peak was as lively as boiling water.

After Qiu Wei announced the start of the competition, Lin Mu's figure flashed and flew onto the high platform.

The audience cheered loudly, which was deafening.

"Who will win?" In front of the hall, Wushuang Zhenren smiled, waved his hand to set up a ban, and turned to look at Yinxin.

Yin Xin's face was calm: "Xing Yun is very strong, but Lin Mu is not bad either. It's a tit-for-tat match. Who will win or lose will be known in a moment."

"I hope Lin Mu can win." Wushuang Zhenren smiled and said: "Xing Yun is the most talented and powerful cultivator of the younger generation of Lancai Realm. Lin Mu's victory over him is also a great encouragement to us!"

Yin Xin smiled faintly and said: "Let's see."

On the high platform, Lin Mu and Xing Yun stood opposite each other. Unlike the cultivators watching below the stage, who were in a peak battle and tense, both of them looked calm with a faint smile.

The judge of this competition was Qiu Wei, the late Jindan elder of Wushuang Sword Sect. Obviously, everyone attached great importance to this competition.

Qiu Wei glanced at Lin Mu and Xing Yun, as if he had returned to the past. Like the cultivators below the stage, he couldn't help but get excited and announced loudly: "The competition begins!"

The audience cheered and thundered. Tens of thousands of cultivators and thousands of eyes all looked over here.
