Chapter 145 Interesting People
What do you mean by "what to do in the next few games"? This person is acting strangely.
Although he didn't give off a particularly uncomfortable feeling, Tao Tao didn't want to have much to do with him, so she said, "Of course, it would be best to win. I'm tired after the competition, so I'm going to rest for a while."
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Just don't forget our previous agreement."
Shen Yi did not ask any further questions.
As for the next few matches, Tao Tao doesn't plan to win in a row. He intends to lose to a few opponents of similar strength, as long as he can get the points to enter the Class A arena.
If the winning streak continues, it will indeed attract a lot of attention, so it's better to keep a low profile.
Tao Tao's upcoming matches have indeed attracted much attention. Many people who want to find out her strength are very curious about her performance. They didn't expect her to be skilled in music and have considerable ability. As a result, they are even more cautious about her.
Throughout the day, Tao Tao participated in a total of seven matches. She tried her best to control her wins and losses, winning four matches and losing three. Her points were still insufficient, so she needed to continue the next day. However, her loss actually relieved many people.
Many people thought she wasn't as formidable as rumored, noting that she suffered a particularly crushing defeat in one match where she barely had a chance to fight back. This defeat became a hot topic of discussion, especially among those who had been defeated by her, who were overjoyed.
What they didn't know was that Tao Tao wasn't without a chance to make a move; she simply didn't make a move at all, otherwise she wouldn't have lost so easily.
This reduced Tao Tao's threat level, and fewer people stared at her.
Tao Tao originally planned to lose four matches to lull his opponents into a false sense of security. However, he encountered Sun Lian in the last match. Sun Lian had suffered a loss against Tao Tao before, so he dared not underestimate him. But he couldn't swallow his pride and wanted to use his best move, Da Ou.
Tao Tao would have let it go if it were anyone else, but Sun Lian didn't get along with her and was always causing her trouble, so Tao Tao was determined not to let him off the hook and gave him a good beating.
Because the problem was solved so quickly, Tao Tao began to suspect that Sun Lian had earned so many points through his own strength. Logically speaking, if he were so weak, he probably wouldn't even be able to reach the C-level arena.
However, Sun Lian has the Sun family behind him, and he can gain a lot of points with just a little trickery. But this makes it difficult for Sun Lian in the later competitions. He can be said to have become a walking tank. If he can't beat others, how can the people in the second-level competition not beat him?
In the end, Sun Lian suffered a crushing defeat and collapsed to the ground in a sorry state. Even then, he couldn't resist making sarcastic remarks at Tao Tao. Tao Tao didn't bother with him; he was just a defeated opponent, and there was no point in saying anything more.
It's finally over.
Tao Tao left the arena, stretched, and realized her stomach was growling loudly; she needed to find something to eat quickly.
Thinking of this, Tao Tao planned to go directly to the Treasure Pavilion, but Shen Yi blocked her way, "Miss Le, you promised to take me to visit the Immortal Spirit Valley."
"Ah, I forgot, but I'm hungry now, I need to eat first!" Tao Tao had really forgotten all about it. She originally thought that Shen Yi was just saying it casually. Although Fairy Valley was beautiful, she didn't know to go there specifically.
Shen Yi smiled faintly and opened his folding fan with a "snap". "Food is no problem. Come with me, and I guarantee you'll eat your fill."
"Really!?" Tao Tao's eyes lit up at the mention of food, and he didn't care whether he knew this person or not.
"Of course, I never lie."
Whether this was true or not, Tao Tao was willing to try anything related to food, so she followed Shen Yi to the side courtyard where they were temporarily staying at Yue Chong Lou.
It was called a side courtyard, but when we arrived we found that they had actually moved a whole building there. This was the magic treasure of the Moon Tower, the Moonlit Pavilion, which was essentially a miniature version of the Moon Tower, and it had everything inside. Of course, not everyone could have the Moon Tower; only a young master like Shen Yi could use it at will.
"Please." Shen Yi walked to the door, gestured for them to enter, and then glanced at the servants guarding the door, giving them a meaningful look. The servants immediately understood, bowed, and withdrew.
Tao Tao nodded, completely at ease, and walked straight in. As soon as he entered, he was captivated by the scene before him. The space inside was enormous, with each floor being different. In the center hung a huge lantern, inside which burned a thousand-year-old candle, its light dazzling.
"I've sent the kitchen to prepare the food. Wait a moment, I'll show you around here." For some reason, Shen Yi was unusually enthusiastic towards Tao Tao. They had only met once, so there was no reason for him to be like this. Tao Tao wasn't stupid; there was no reason for him to be so attentive. She didn't completely trust Shen Yi.
There were many servants in the building, mostly beautiful women dressed in silk robes, walking with an ethereal grace. When they saw Shen Yi, they all bowed slightly in greeting, and when they looked at Tao Tao, their faces were full of surprise.
It was obvious that Shen Yi rarely brought people back, but this time he actually brought back a girl, which really made these women very curious.
Shen Yi took Tao Tao on a tour, even visiting their treasure vault where they stored magical artifacts. He even went out of his way to explain everything to Tao Tao, leaving her completely bewildered.
It's just a visit, but why does it feel like Shen Yi wants to show Tao Tao all his most treasured possessions? What is his purpose?
"Young master, the meal is ready." Just then, a woman walked over leisurely and said in a low voice.
"I understand." Shen Yi nodded and said to Tao Tao, "Miss Le, please."
"okay."
Having food to eat is naturally more important than anything else. Tao Tao was indifferent to everything in the building and showed no interest whatsoever. However, his eyes lit up when he heard about food, which made Shen Yi very curious and amused at the same time.
Upon arriving at their destination, Shen Yi pushed open the door, and a fragrant aroma wafted out. Tao Tao kept swallowing, her eyes fixed on the food on the table, as if she wanted to pounce on it immediately. She looked quite adorable. Shen Yi smiled and said, "Miss Le, please make yourself at home. All of this was prepared for you."
"Then I won't be polite!" Tao Tao doesn't stand on ceremony. She rushed in, sat down, and started picking up food with her chopsticks. In the blink of an eye, she was gnawing on a chicken leg with one hand while stuffing other dishes into her mouth with her chopsticks with the other.
The woman serving the food couldn't help but say disdainfully upon seeing this scene, "They have no manners at all, it's so unrefined."
Another woman asked in a low voice, "Why did you bring such a vulgar person back, young master? She is completely out of place with our Yue Chonglou."
"Really?" Shen Yi narrowed his eyes, gently playing with the folding fan in his hand, and said with interest, "I find it quite interesting."
Shen Yi had seen all kinds of women, but he had never met anyone like Tao Tao before. He was quite fond of her, especially since he recognized her abilities. Such a person was far more interesting than those ordinary women.
"Continue serving the dishes. Today, Miss Le must eat her fill. If anyone dares to neglect her, I will not let them off lightly."
