Chapter 253 Lu Xun's Popularity
In the past few days, the Demon Sect's outer sect competition has been held in an orderly manner.
Now, the outer sect competition is drawing to a close, with only the final eight contestants remaining.
It is worth mentioning that none of these eight people is a player.
It’s not that the players of Demon Sect are too bad, but because the game has only been in public beta for a short time, the players’ levels are not yet up. No matter how good their skills are or how strong their awareness is, they cannot make up for the gap.
To put it simply, the Morellonomicon players are just temporarily weak, but they won't always be weak.
Among the top eight contestants, Ji Li is among them, and is the most eye-catching one.
Her beautiful face, D-cup figure, and talent only slightly inferior to that of the world's protagonist have made her the most popular outer disciple of this session.
Xu Zhongcheng's talent and accomplishment were actually not worse than Ji Li's. It was a pity that he did not possess Ji Li's other qualities and was just plain ugly, so he could not compete with her.
On the forum, under the organization of some wealthy players, the market has already started betting on the final ranking of the Demon Sect Outer Sect Competition.
Lu Xun looked around and found that Ji Li had the most supporters.
The sand sculpture players gave him their blessings one after another.
"This Xu Zhongcheng has a resolute gaze, broad shoulders, a sturdy figure, and impeccable qualifications and cultivation. Therefore, I support Ji Li!"
"Ji Li's looks and figure are exactly my ideal type. I choose Ji Li!"
"She seems to have a special relationship with Zi Dian. I also choose Ji Li!"
"Can you guys be pure? This is gambling! What does appearance have to do with it? Ji Li, I love you!"
Only a few players supported Xu Zhongcheng, and their comments were nothing more than:
"Wow! His nostrils are so big, I like them so much~"
Different from the players who were watching the fun on the forum, the players of Demon Sect were feeling nervous.
Because they have all been eliminated, the tasks they received from Lu Xun cannot be submitted for the time being.
"It seems that we have to wait until the outer sect competition is over before we can submit the mission." The players thought.
They were not anxious to submit the task. After all, judging from the task content, the top three players would receive experience points, but the rest would not.
What they were worried about was whether they could become the sword-serving boy serving under the Purple Palace!
Lu Xun never gave a specific target, nor did he say which place one had to enter to become his sword-serving boy. Therefore, the outcome of the mission was full of uncertainty, and no one knew whether they had a chance.
They discussed the matter privately, and those with a worse mentality even thought that all the Demon Sect players were not qualified, after all, they didn't even make it to the quarterfinals.
The short Cai Jiangjiang huddled in the crowd of players, her view blocked by the tall players around her. Even if she stood on tiptoe, she might not be able to see Lu Xun sitting on the high platform.
"Alas, I lost so early. I probably won't have the chance to become the Purple Palace's sword maiden, right?" She sighed in her heart.
Her strengths lie in her tactical command, and she is the soul of team battles. However, she is really average in individual competitions, and it is difficult for her to perform well, so she was eliminated early.
This woman with the body of a loli and the heart of a queen really wants to get close to Lu Xun, not only for her future career development, but also because Lu Xun is her cup of tea, a perfect cup of tea!
"It seems I can only look for another opportunity later." She clenched her fists and said in her heart.
While thinking about this, she glanced at the boy standing beside her, and the...little green turtle lying on top of his head.
It only took a few days for this young man to go from being inconspicuous in the beginning to shocking all the players.
He seems to be getting braver and stronger as the battles go on, and he's not even a professional player!
In the end, he actually made it all the way to second place among the players!
This silly-looking boy is Han Bagui.
However, he was able to achieve such results thanks to the special training that Lu Xun gave him. Every time he won a game, he would gain 2,000 experience points, so he really became stronger with each battle and had a certain advantage in terms of experience points.
Like him, Mo Guanji, who had the help of an "old grandfather", was much more useless. With his poor performance, he only got an upper-middle ranking.
His ranking shocked many players.
"How can this noob named Mo Guanji become stronger and stronger as time goes by?"
"I'm so bad at this, but I still win every time!"
"This guy is leveling up so fast. I don't know where he got the experience points. If I had so much experience points, I would have died a long time ago!"
Mo Guanji was content with his final ranking, while Han Bagui didn't think too much about it and didn't seem to care about the ranking at all.
In fact, at this moment, not only Cai Jiangjiang is paying attention to Han Bagui, but also a large number of professional players are paying attention to him.
After all, he has not joined any professional club, not even a guild, so he is worth winning over!
Cai Jiangjiang thought to herself: "Even if Han Bagui levels up slowly, his final ranking won't be bad. His operational awareness is absolutely first-rate. This kind of player is born for competition!"
She secretly made up her mind to find an opportunity to contact Han Bagui, who suddenly emerged, to see if she could bring him into her own club.
She has absolute confidence in herself when it comes to winning people's hearts.
White silk loli, invincible!

"throat--!"
On the ring, Ji Li's long sword collided with a long knife, and then knocked the opponent off the ring.
Ji Li, who won the game, said calmly, "My dear senior brother, I'm grateful for your kindness."
The loser stood up and said, "Um... Senior Sister Ji Li, I actually joined later than you, I just grew up more anxiously..."
When he was speaking, he found that Ji Li had been distracted for a long time. She was looking towards the platform and staring at Lu Xun who was sitting on the platform.
Lu Xun smiled at her and nodded. Ji Li immediately clenched her fists excitedly, as if she had received a huge compliment.
She didn't care much about the ranking, but now she wants to win all the way, she wants to get first place!
"Come on, Ji Li!" She cheered herself up.
Lu Xun looked at Ji Li on the stage with a smile on his face.
Ji Li's performance was better than he had imagined, and his daily whipping of her before returning to the sect was not in vain.
Ji Li was beaten every day, and the more she was beaten by Lu Xun, the more her skills improved.
She has now become a representative figure among this group of outer disciples. She symbolizes the highest combat power of the Demon Sect's outer disciples and has brought glory to the Demon Sect in front of outsiders.
Lu Xun also felt a little proud of it.
In the end, as everyone had guessed earlier, Ji Li and Xu Zhongcheng entered the finals.
When the two took the stage, there was a clear difference in the audience's reactions.
Ji Li was greeted with thunderous applause, and when Xu Zhongcheng took the stage, the cheers and encouragement seemed perfunctory.
Xu Zhongcheng didn't really care about this. He asked himself, if he were also a spectator, he would definitely cheer for Junior Sister Ji Li.
He just wanted to show his style and be himself in the competition, in front of...his junior uncle-master!
Xu Zhongcheng took a deep look up at the platform, his eyes fanatical.
The person he admired most was his junior uncle.
Lu Xun felt his gaze and thought to himself, "Were you looking at me just now?"
Why does Xu Zhongcheng look like a fanboy when he looks at me?
Could this be a showdown between my fans?
