I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, So I’ll Max Out My Defense

Chapter 1127: Chapter 1128: Alpaca Rigging the Match! Chapter 1127: Chapter 1128: Alpaca Rigging the Match! Wu Chengjue gave Long Aotian a reassuring pill with his indifferent expression.

In Long Aotian’s eyes, the icy beauty before him might have a bad temper, but she was undoubtedly a solid supporter to rely on. Losing to Han Buzhu in the second round and then to him in the third, it would be an easy path to advance to the finals—a perfect plan. Meanwhile, the other prodigies would fiercely compete against each other, resulting in a brutal scene. At that time, he would discreetly take advantage of the situation and seize the top spot in this combat competition.

On the stone pillar, the Great Elder nodded slightly. He hadn’t misjudged, as having Wu Chengjue as a pawn would ensure Long Aotian’s victory, especially since he was in charge of arranging the fights for the arena.

On the other side,
after being comforted by the crowd, Liu Jinshui gradually regained his energy and emerged from his dejected state. He sighed from his seat in the audience, “Ah, who would have thought Ol’ Fatty, in all his wisdom, would lose to a mere girl? Those who earlier bet on my loss must have made a fortune!”

Betting was the only activity that could currently engage Liu Jinshui wholeheartedly, and it was definitely a lucrative endeavor if handled well.

“Ha ha ha, Ol’ Fatty, don’t be sad. Thanks to your loss, we made a small fortune. You really didn’t deceive us. Betting on your loss is indeed profitable!”

“Good loss! It made us happy!”

“Ol’ Fatty was meant to lose!”

“Exactly, who said you have to win on the stage? We want to lose—the more, the better, the faster, the better!”

The cultivators laughed heartily, delighted by Liu Jinshui’s defeat. They had initially thought he was genuinely trying to defeat Wu Chengjue with his impressive strike, but were surprised when he was almost instantly defeated in return—a well-played act that showed no signs of intentional losing.

Of course, there were also a few cultivators who regretted not believing in him and had stubbornly bet against Liu Jinshui, thinking he was taking advantage of them. Little did they know that his earnest demeanor was indeed truthful, and his operations were so fierce that his loss appeared completely natural, showing no signs of a deliberate defeat.
