Chapter 122. Du Wei fights again, with an unexpected new partner! (Request full order)
Back in the players' lounge, Aisha was still immersed in the game just now, recalling that exciting and shocking throw.
The original intention was to make up for the mistake, but I didn't expect Du Wei to dare to perform such a difficult skill, which can be said to be a stroke of genius.
Aisha was still savoring the moment, but Du Wei's face didn't look very good. He looked at the other man who walked into the contestant lounge without saying a word.
The man was Arthur.
Du Wei felt a hint of cold magic from this man. Perhaps because his physique had been tempered, Du Wei was particularly sensitive in sensing magic.
Just as Du Wei was about to walk over, a team of medical staff came in carrying several stretchers with three men lying on them. They were the male athletes, including Walter, who had sprinted early in the race.
Their partners followed beside them, feeling worried and disappointed. I guess their emotions must be quite complicated at the moment.
Du Wei got an idea and went up to ask.
"Doctor, what's wrong with them?"
"It's hard to tell at this point. We have to take him back for a detailed examination."
Du Wei didn't know what to say, nor could he figure out what was going on, so he immediately turned his attention to the partners of these people.
Du Wei believed in his intuition very much. As the saying goes, there must be something fishy going on when things are abnormal. There must be some trick here that he didn't know about.
For some reason, Du Wei suddenly recalled the ambush he encountered on the road after the banquet that night.
At this moment, Walter on the stretcher suddenly opened his eyes in pain and grabbed Du Wei's wrist.
"Du...Brother Du." He uttered with difficulty.
"Brother Wa, how are you?"
"Wu...Brother Du."
Walter's condition was getting worse and worse. He clenched Du Wei's wrist tightly and stared at him, making Du Wei feel a little uncomfortable.
But Du Wei did not shake him off.
He saw despair in Walter's eyes.
"Brother Wa, you..."
"……sword."
"sword?"
In an instant, this strong man shed tears of unwillingness.
His eyes were red, his lips were trembling, tears and snot were flowing together, and his facial features were twisted together, as if he was a pot of medicine that an evil old witch was constantly stirring.
"My sword is broken..."
"Uh...but isn't your name Jade Suijian?"
"The Jade Shattering Sword, it's the jade that breaks, not the sword."
To be honest, Du Wei didn’t quite understand what the difference was, but looking at Walter’s appearance, the situation didn’t seem optimistic.
"I...I...I can't be a professional player anymore."
Looking at the strong man lying on the stretcher, sobbing and crying, the medical staff around him were silent.
His partner also had a distraught look on his face, sobbing quietly as if he was trying to hold back tears.
Du Wei stood there in a daze, speechless.
For a professional player, nothing is more frightening than pain.
They are not afraid of hard work, hardship, or boring training day after day, just because they have faith and goals in their hearts.
But this sudden bad news directly shattered their dreams.
Professional athletes have long been prepared for competitive injuries, which are inevitable.
However, they absolutely cannot accept suffering unexplained pain.
Walter used up his last bit of strength to pull Du Wei closer to him.
"Someone poisoned me..."
Du Wei immediately showed a look of astonishment: "What!"
Walter is a professional sex athlete. Only a novice can do such a thing as sprinting without permission, so Du Wei doesn't think he did it on purpose.
What's more, there are other people who have the same symptoms as Walter.
"That's too much..." Du Wei couldn't help but clench his fists.
Wattelle grabbed Du Wei's sleeve tightly, and two tears of blood flowed from his eyes. Du Wei could not forget the look full of unwillingness and anger.
"Revenge for me, woohoo~"
"Brother Wa! Brother Wa!"
Walter's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Du Wei felt very uncomfortable watching Walter being carried away by medical staff for emergency diagnosis.
He admires those who, although not particularly talented, have worked hard step by step to get to where they are today. No one has the right to deprive them of their dreams.
There is no doubt that this was a well-planned conspiracy.
Du Wei could never forgive the mastermind who tarnished sports and sexual morality.
Suddenly feeling a trace of sight, Du Wei subconsciously looked into the distance and found Arthur. On his cold face, there was a hint of sarcastic smile at the moment.
And when their eyes met, a spark of hostility flew between them.
Immediately, Arthur turned around and left the lounge without looking back.
Not long after, after discussion among the judges, the results of the semi-finals came out.
Among the thirty groups of contestants participating in this competition, three groups successfully advanced, namely Du Wei's group and Arthur's group.
In addition, there was a group of men and women who were strangers that Du Wei had never seen before, and their skills were only average.
The three groups of players who sprinted early were all well-known masters. If nothing unexpected had happened, that group of players with average skills would definitely not have been able to advance.
After leaving the contestant lounge, Du Wei asked Aisha to go back to the hotel to rest first.
Following Du Wei's gaze, Aisha saw Ruyue. After a little thought, she understood what Du Wei was thinking.
"Then I'll go back first. Be careful."
"Well, I have a sense of propriety."
After Aisha left the venue, Du Wei stood there for a while. The competitions of other groups had already started in the center of the venue. Du Wei walked straight to the audience seats in the distance.
Coming to a beautiful fox girl, she was still elegant and raised her hand slightly, and the personal maid sitting next to her stood up tactfully.
Ruyue smiled at Du Wei and said, "Congratulations, sir, on your successful promotion."
"Thank you."
Du Wei sat down next to Ru Yue with a calm expression, not saying a word, and watched the game in the middle of the field together.
There were still thirty groups of contestants, and Du Wei didn't know any of them except Harding.
This was almost a contest without suspense. As the defending champion, Harding showed his kingly demeanor and overwhelmed the other contestants.
As promised, he smiled and looked at the playing field, not looking at Du Wei at all.
"I know what you are doing, sir. I have some idea of what you are doing."
"Oh? You got a clue?"
"After the game has been going on for 20 minutes, I will be able to confirm my guess."
"Before that, could you please ask Miss Ruyue to dispel my doubts?"
"Oh?"
"To be honest, young lady, I was ambushed when I left the Rujia Dojo that night."
After hearing this, Ruyue finally turned her head and stared at Du Wei without blinking.
"What did you say?"
"I mean, I just left Miss Ruyue's dojo, and the assassins lying in ambush outside were waiting for me. What do you think of this?" Ruyue looked at Du Wei's expression and didn't think Du Wei would tell such an unfounded lie.
She bit her silver teeth and said, "Ruyue will definitely give you an explanation."
"it is good.
"What was the guess the girl mentioned earlier?"
"When the time comes, it will be revealed naturally."
Du Wei glanced at the fox woman and said nothing.
Although there is no hatred between Du Wei and Ruyue, they are rivals after all, and it is normal for them to be on guard against each other.
It was as if Du Wei suspected that Ruyue might have invited all the masters of the day to participate in the Rushan Sword Contest in order to ensure her own victory, and then poisoned all of these masters.
Similarly, Ruyue would also be suspicious of Du Wei, a sexual genius who appeared out of nowhere.
After all, Du Wei's appearance was so abrupt that it was hard not to doubt his origins.
Time passed slowly, and when the game reached 23 minutes, it was the moment when the contestants changed their postures for the first time.
However, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, and there were widespread exclamations.
No one expected that ten groups of players would start sprinting at the same time.
Du Wei had the same reaction as the audience around him. He took a deep breath after being shocked, and looked at Ruyue beside him with some doubt.
At this moment, Ruyue's face was no longer as calm as usual, and Du Wei could sense a hint of anger from her.
Facing the overwhelming magic power in the center of the field, Du Wei once again felt the cold magic power he had felt in the previous game, which was chilling.
Ruyue's face was extremely cold, and a layer of frost appeared on the armrest that was pressed by her palm.
Du Wei was secretly shocked when he saw this. This Miss Ruyue's ice magic was not inferior to that of the sister from the Gong family.
She is worthy of being the number one female player in the current sex world and the one with the greatest hope of becoming the empress of this generation.
"Mr. Du Wei, do you have any plans for later?" Ruyue said after a long silence.
Du Wei was stunned when he heard this: "Nothing happened."
"Can I borrow your holy sword?"
"what?"
"To be honest, I need a weapon that allows me to be carefree, otherwise I will have nowhere to vent my anger.
"In return, I will let you test my abilities this time. Don't you want to know my trump card?
"As for Young Master's Black Fire, if you want to use it, then use it. If you want to continue to hide your abilities, Ruyue will not force you."
Du Wei looked at her carefully. She didn't look like she was joking. He couldn't help but ask, "Is there such a good thing?"
"It's not a good thing. I'm not afraid of you making fun of me, but if I really use my Seven Star Acupoints, you may not be able to withstand it. I can't damage the six swords that I have carefully nurtured."
"So you take it out on me?"
Ruyue smiled slightly: "Sir, would you like to lend it to me?"
Du Wei weighed the pros and cons in his mind and nodded: "Since the beauty has invited me, I will do my best."
The corners of her mouth rose slightly and she continued to watch the game on the field.
After more than a dozen groups of players left the field early, Harding was the only one still performing meticulously, not affected by the events around him.
Du Wei couldn't help but admire Harding in his heart. He was indeed a man of sex. No wonder Ruyue called him a sex maniac.
Just this kind of mentality is not something that ordinary people can have.
"Sir, what do you think of Brother Ha's skills?"
Du Wei paused for a moment and said slowly: "The magic power is disordered, and the operation is a little distorted, but compared to other rotten fish and shrimp, it can be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack."
Ruyue looked at Du Wei in surprise: "So you also noticed it. It seems that your magical perception is also very good."
"Isn't it Miss Ruyue too?"
Ruyue smiled but said nothing.
Du Wei had already discovered that when the other ten groups of runners were sprinting ahead, he felt the same magical agitation from Harding as from the others.
However, Harding relied on his powerful magic to suppress his restlessness and completed the entire game in an excellent posture.
In Du Wei's opinion, it is no exaggeration to call him the strongest of the contemporary era.
In the end, the game was a foregone conclusion, with Harding taking the lead and winning the group stage in the semi-finals.
As for the other two groups of contestants who advanced, they were the tallest among the short ones. At least Du Wei didn’t think these people had any strong abilities.
"Sir, what did you see?"
"I can't tell. They are just a bunch of trash."
"Yes."
"what?"
Du Wei looked at Ruyue with a puzzled expression.
"All the famous masters came to my Rujia Sword Contest that night.
“Logically speaking, it wouldn’t be surprising for those masters to make it to the quarterfinals or even the semifinals.
“But you saw today, all those masters’ magic power went out of control for unknown reasons.
"Sir, what do you think is the reason?"
Du Wei rubbed his chin, thought for a while, and then said slowly: "Someone interfered at the banquet that night."
"Exactly what I thought."
This makes sense. Du Wei always felt that many of the unexpected contestants looked familiar, so it would be normal if they had met each other at the banquet.
"I just talked to Brother Wa, and he said he was poisoned, and the poison seemed to be fatal to Jill."
"Walter, the Jade-Breaking Sword?"
"Yes, it's him."
"Poisoning? It's possible, but it would have to be a high-grade poison that could avoid drug testing. Who on earth could get that kind of stuff, and in large quantities..."
At this point, Ruyue suddenly looked at Du Wei, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Forgive Ruyue for being so rude, but could you please answer one question for me?"
"Tell me everything you know." Du Wei said.
Of course, this statement is bullshit.
"Of course, everyone who attended the banquet was affected, even Brother Ha was no exception. The murderer must have been very clever. It is very likely that everyone who attended the banquet that day was affected. However..."
Du Wei probably guessed what she wanted to say.
"When I watched the game, I was not affected at all."
"So, the girl is suspicious of me?"
"How could that be? I am very confident in my perception. Although the magic power on you is evil, it is upright. So I am very sure that you are not the murderer."
"Then I misunderstood the girl."
Not long after, the radio announced that the contestants for the next game were ready to arrive.
Ruyue in the audience slowly stood up and smiled at Du Wei: "Then let's go to the contestant preparation room."
"what?"
"Sir, it's almost time to fulfill your promise."
Seeing that Du Wei was unmoved, Ruyue deliberately made a surprised expression: "Huh? Didn't I tell you? I will play in the next game."
Ruyue looked sly, and said to Du Wei who was standing still: "Just like you like to hide your abilities, Ruyue can't show off your true abilities in the semi-finals.
"Sir, you just agreed to lend me your sword. Are you going to go back on your word?"
"You will be my partner in this game."
