Capítulo 149: Strategy for winning Paimon Favour
"Zhongli, you do want to watch the preliminaries, right?"
In this sentence, there was a mixture of hope, expectation, and a hint of testing.
After saying this, Paimon flew right in front of Zhongli, blinking her eyes vigorously.
There's delicious food!
The tournament itself wasn't important; as long as there was food, that was all that mattered.
Even "Xue Qinghe" promised good food, so there was no doubt about it.
As for whether "Xue Qinghe" was tricking her, that wasn't something Paimon considered.
After all, "Xue Qinghe" had never deceived her before!
Hearing this, Zhongli's usually calm face showed a hint of helplessness, and he twitched at the corner of his eye.
What does she mean by him wanting to watch the preliminaries?
Clearly, it was Paimon who wanted to "watch" this "preliminary" event.
After giving Paimon a glance, Zhongli instinctively looked at "Xue Qinghe" again.
She had truly mastered the "Paimon code." Dealing with this little one was simple; just offer good food.
Thinking back, when Paimon and the Traveler were together, they were often "tricked" in a similar manner... Ahem, how could it be called tricking?
It was merely a little bit of training.
In the end, the money used to treat them to meals was their own...
Thinking about this, Zhongli smiled knowingly, nodded, and said, "Paimon, have you forgotten that Chi Yu and Siji are also competing?"
"Oh, right!"
Paimon mimicked Zhongli's gesture, rubbing her chin as if she had a sudden realization.
She could skip other people's matches; they weren't important.
But there was no reason to miss Chi Yu and Siji's matches.
They were her own people, after all.
Zhongli paused for a moment before continuing, "Of course, we'll have to wait until after the preliminaries and the knockout stages to see them compete."
The Heaven Dou Royal Team was one of the three teams that had been given a pass directly to the finals.
While they would be present at the preliminaries and the knockout rounds, they would not participate or compete for a spot in the finals.
"Finals tickets aren't easy to come by, but as a judge, the tickets would be free…"
After saying this, Zhongli lifted his teacup and began to sip.
If he truly wanted to watch the matches, tickets wouldn't be an issue.
Didn't Tang Hao watch the entire tournament without paying for a ticket?
Paimon felt something strange about Zhongli's words, but she couldn't quite pinpoint why.
She didn't think too much about it; she simply believed that if Zhongli agreed, she would get to eat something delicious.
After all, being a judge shouldn't be too demanding.
Paimon exclaimed excitedly, "That's great, Zhongli!"
After that, she rubbed her hands together and, feeling a bit shy, said, "Qinghe, Zhongli agreed!"
"So, what delicious food are we talking about?"
She didn't care about the tickets or the rules of the tournament.
She was only concerned with whether there would be good food and what kind it would be.
"Xue Qinghe" smiled, glancing at Zhongli and Paimon, and said, "Don't worry, little Paimon, it will definitely be delicious!"
"As for what it is, I'll keep it a secret for now. Otherwise, there won't be any sense of anticipation."
When she said this, "Xue Qinghe" appeared quite sincere.
But in reality, she hadn't prepared any food!
Because of this, she couldn't say exactly what it would be.
This was a temporary strategy; she could prepare something once she got back.
Seeing this, Zhongli quietly put down his teacup without saying a word.
As long as Paimon's request wasn't a matter of principle, he would agree to it.
If it were a matter of principle, he wouldn't agree, and Paimon understood that.
Despite her naive appearance, Zhongli never felt guilty "tricking" her.
"Xue Qinghe" smiled subtly, a gleam of excitement in her eyes.
Inviting Zhongli wasn't just the emperor's idea; it was also her grandfather Qian Daoliu's intention.
In order to meet Zhongli, her grandfather even moved the venue for the finals to Spirit City.
"Xue Qinghe" had only learned about this a few days ago.
This was also why she personally came to invite Zhongli and even used the method of coaxing little Paimon to achieve her goal.
At this moment, "Xue Qinghe" was very happy, or rather, excited!
This year's Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament would definitely cause that woman to break down!
Didn't she claim that her disciples were the Golden Generation?
Well, if her most prized and beloved disciple— that little fox—were to lose…
Thinking of this, "Xue Qinghe" could barely suppress the smile on her lips, almost harder than controlling an AK.
In her dreams, the Spirit Hall did lose, but the opponent was Shrek Academy.
Recently, she had been paying attention to Shrek Academy, and their overall strength, for some reason, was much weaker than in her dreams!
In the dream, aside from that hundred-thousand-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit, the others had all broken through the fortieth level by this time, reaching the rank of Soul Ancestor.
But in reality, only Dai Mubai and Tang San had barely reached the Soul Ancestor level.
"What could be the reason?"
"Xue Qinghe" couldn't figure it out.
She didn't know what the butterfly effect was, nor did she know that the original Shrek Seven Devils had increased their strength due to consuming immortal herbs.
In the original timeline, the three immortal herbs that Tang San consumed and refined did not increase his spirit power level!
(Original Novel)
The Eight Petal Immortal Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot did not provide a boost in spirit power. Their effects: the Ice and Fire Alchemy Body, immunity to all poisons, and immunity to water and fire.
The Yearning Heartbroken Red was used by dripping the dew into the eyes. Its effect: to enhance spiritual power…
None of the three herbs increased spirit power, which was why Tang San broke through to the Soul Ancestor level at that time.
The only way he gained some spirit power was through the inner core of Dugu Bo, so if you subtract that increase and the boost from the ten-thousand-year fourth spirit ring, that would be Tang San's current spirit power level.
After "Xue Qinghe" left, less than an hour of peace passed before a flower-loving Title Douluo arrived at Zhongli's residence.
"Huh?"
"Grandpa, why are you here?"
Paimon looked at Yue Guan with some confusion and instinctively asked.
"I came to bring little Paimon some delicious food!"
Yue Guan replied with a smile.
At this moment, he seemed much younger, as if there was good news, with a joyful expression on his face.
The last time he came to Heaven Dou City, Yue Guan and Gui Mei had asked Zhongli about some issues regarding spirit awakening.
After returning to Spirit City and reporting back, Gui Mei began training according to Zhongli's advice.
Because he was a Title Douluo, many of the training methods didn't have much effect on him.
However, Gui Mei was willing to take on more challenging tasks!
Several times, Gui Mei, this Rank 95 Title Douluo, came close to dying!
