With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 356 Tournament (1)

?

After Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao escaped from the crowd, they didn't continue along the same path as before.

Instead of going on a date like they wanted to do, they headed back to their inn and just ate at the inn's restaurant instead.

Mu Bao Bao was a bit unhappy with this result, but she knew that this was the safest thing for them.

Of course, she didn't blame Lin Fan since she knew that he had just been caught up in this matter. She blamed the girl who had clung to Lin Fan's arm instead since she was the one who had caused the incident.

But she only blamed the girl a bit since she knew that the girl was troubled by this matter as well.

As a fellow woman, she knew what kind of things girls suffered, so she didn't intend to blame her too much.

She just chalked it up as an unfortunate accident.

But Lin Fan didn't feel the same.

That was the reason why he had given that silent warning to the girl as he left. He had made sure to say it in a voice that was low enough that only the girl was able to hear it for that reason.

He didn't know what the girl had been planning, but he didn't want to get himself involved in her matters since he had his own affairs to handle.

After they finished their meal, they headed back to their room to dual cultivate.

Then for the rest of the week, they didn't do anything other than take one more mission and rest in their rooms.

The only time that they left their room was to get food and the rest of the time was spent on…dual cultivating.

They didn't know what would come from the tournament, but they knew that it would involve them and they were currently too weak to deal with it. They wanted to use the precious bit of time that they had left to get as strong as possible.

As well, during this time, Yi Lei had come to them daily to provide them with the information that Lin Fan wanted that her subordinates had collected.

But whenever she entered the room, she couldn't help revealing a strange look.

That was because she could smell the strange smell that filled the room…This was a smell that came as a result of their dual cultivation.

It was hard for her to hold back the flames of desire that burned inside of her because of this smell, but she had to endure since Lin Fan hadn't made the first move. It had become a rule that Lin Fan had to make the first move, or else they couldn't do anything to him.

This was a rule that Yue Lan had just made after what had happened in Brilliant Light City.

There wouldn't have been a need to make this rule if Lin Fan was comfortable with this, but she had heard about how uncomfortable it had made Lin Fan, so she immediately made a rule against it.

She had made this potential harem and recruited all these girls for Lin Fan so that he would have the option, but if it made him uncomfortable, she wouldn't force it onto him. She just wanted him to have every option possible to him if he wanted it.

As for the information that Yi Lei brought, there wasn't anything new.

Other than a few rumours that they heard, there didn't seem to be anything special related to the Love Sect that was spreading in this city.

Lin Fan was disappointed, but he understood why this was the case, so he didn't show any disappointment towards Yi Lei.

He could even see that she was very tired from running around taking care of this for him, so he felt very grateful to her. Even though she was technically his subordinate and it was normal for her to do this.

To thank her, he even gave her a drop of Clear Water.

While the Clear Water would help her with her cultivation, he knew that it would also help with her fatigue. This was something that he had tested himself, which was why he confidently gave it to her.

Yi Lei was confused at first receiving this drop of Clear Water, but after taking it, she immediately understood why he gave it to her.

The spiritual energy contained within this drop was too strong for her to take all at once, so she could only take a fourth of it. However, just the spiritual energy contained within this fourth of the Clear Water drop was enough to erase all her fatigue while also helping her break through to the next level of cultivation.

Yi Lei had been stuck in the Second Qi Gathering Realm, but this fourth of the Clear Water Drop pushed her right up to the Third Qi Gathering Realm.

If she were to take the rest of this Clear Water Drop…she might even reach the Fourth Qi Gathering Realm.

She couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a look of admiration and worship.

Just this casual thing that the boss gave her was already this powerful…

Just what level was the boss at?

She really wanted him to take her then and there, but she knew that she would be pushing the limits if she did this…

So instead, she leaned forward and pressed her chest against Lin Fan as she said, "Boss, thank you."

But Lin Fan just gave a calm nod of acknowledgement without being flustered at all.

After all, he already had enough experience with women that he wouldn't be flustered that easily.

Taking it a step further, he had already seen breasts that were much bigger than Yi Lei's, so…it wasn't as if they were enough to satisfy him anymore.

So Yi Lei could only leave with a disappointed look on her face.

Time passed and it was time for the tournament.

Thanks to Yi Lei, they had two tickets to go and watch the tournament, but these tickets were the most common tickets that they could get. Even then, it had been hard for Yi Lei to get them since everyone in the city wanted to watch this tournament.

This tournament was a fight between cultivators, a fight that they would almost never get to see, so of course everyone wanted to watch.

But there were only so many spaces in the arena that this tournament was being held in, so it wasn't as if everyone could fit.

The tickets that were available had long been bought by scalpers and opportunists who were looking to resell them.

Even with money, one might not be able to get these tickets.

After all, if one could buy it with money alone, then a lot of people would be able to buy them.

Not to mention that with how well Lin Fan's store was doing, it was easy for him if he could buy it with money.

Instead of just wanting money, the ones that bought the tickets were waiting for the right people to sell them to. After all, there were plenty of people with money to choose from, so they chose to sell to the ones that had the most influence.

They were waiting for people that they could build relations with for their future.

So it was hard for Yi Lei to get some tickets.

She had to call in several favours that she had worked hard to earn during this time just to get these tickets for Lin Fan.

But this was the boss' orders, so she had no choice in this matter.

Not to mention…she was still hoping to be rewarded for her good work.

With these tickets, they were able to get seats that were at the very edge of the crowd.

With how far they were from the stage, it would have been very hard for them to see the fights if they were mortals. But as cultivators, they were able to easily see the stage even with this distance.

At the same time, being this far away hid them very well, so they didn't need to worry about being discovered by anyone.

The crowd was very excited, so it was very loud and there were many people pushing each other, but that didn't matter to them.

In the space around them, it was as if there was a line that had been drawn and there was no one that was able to cross that line. No matter how people moved, they just couldn't come near them.

So the two of them were able to sit with relative relaxation without worrying about their personal space being invaded.

The arena allowed people to come in very early since there were plenty of seats to fill. So even though it was already this crowded, there were still more people coming in and the event hadn't started yet.

But when Lin Fan looked carefully, he could see that there were some of the contestants who were also sitting in the crowd watching.

The people that were with them…were clearly not just here to watch.

The people that surrounded these contestants were all cultivators and they weren't weak.

It was clear that they were prepared to fight if anything happened.

It seemed that no one trusted each other even though they were all participating in this event.

Still, that wasn't strange since everyone was here with one goal in mind.

They were all here for the prize, so they wouldn't hesitate to attack each other if necessary.

This would be a very bloody affair it seemed…
