Chapter 252 - 125 No.3 and No.5_1
Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong had no idea how the attack of the high-level wraith was handled at the Temple Headquarters, but the demon hunting team selection competition had to continue. Moreover, there was no time to rest.
After a night of cultivation, the sibling trio gathered together and headed straight for the grand arena. From today onwards, they would have to participate in the competition on their own. With yesterday’s preliminary selection, the number of competitors today would be halved.
Along the way, Long Kongkong kept peeking around, watching for any signs of another attack. Maybe it was because he had his brother and cousin with him, but deep down, he was really hoping for the jade scaled woman to appear again.
However, contrary to his wishes, or perhaps due to the Temple’s cleanup of the Holy City, they managed to reach the grand arena without any incidents.
"Wait for me after the match," Ling Menglu greeted the two of them before she headed towards the Priests Temple.
The preliminary competition didn’t follow the drawing order of yesterday. Instead, a new drawing was made. This was done to prevent any premature tracking of opponents and strategizing, thus making the competition as fair as possible.
"Bro, you draw first, we should spread out our drawing times. I don’t want to go up against you," Long Kongkong patted Long Dangdang’s shoulder.
Long Dangdang drew as per requested, and this time his position turned out to be quite a mark, the third one.
When Long Kongkong drew after waiting for a while, he broke out in cold sweat, he drew the fifth one. It was really a close call. He nearly encountered his brother in the second round of the preliminaries.
"That really caught me off guard! Almost doubling my troubles, what’s all this about? Oh, heavens! You can’t be so cruel to me!" As he spoke, Long Kongkong earnestly bowed towards the sky.
Long Dangdang said with annoyance, "I told you splitting our drawing times was unreliable, we should’ve drawn together. Prepare for the competition. It’s almost our turn."
