In order to survive, she forced herself to have a happy ending with the yandere villain.

"Young Master Gongsun Yu has arrived."

"finally come."

Gu Chaomu's heart tightened when she heard that name.

Look towards the entrance.

A young man dressed in black held a feather fan in his hand and gently fanned himself.

From the moment he entered, the heroes along the way in the arena opened a passage for him, exuding an aura of power and making him appear incredibly majestic and handsome.

The man in black stared at Gu Chaomu, who was standing beside the arena, and walked straight towards him.

She stopped in front of Gu Chaomu.

With a "whoosh," he closed the feather fan in his hand.

She asked him with a smile:

"So you're Senior Zhou's apprentice? What's your name?"

"My name is Gu Chaomu."

"it is good."

He pointed his feather fan toward the arena and invited:

"Then let's go up."

"Please give me your advice."

Gu Chaomu clasped his hands in a fist salute to him.

The young master and Zhou Jiang on the observation platform became excited when they saw each other face to face.

"Look, everyone's here, and the competition is about to begin."

"Yes, I am very much looking forward to it."

The man in black leisurely walked onto the arena first, and only then did Gu Chaomu behind him begin to make his move.

"Brother Gu."

"Xinyue, what's wrong?"

With a worried look on her face, Zhou Xinyue took out a peace charm from her sleeve.

"This is a blessing that Xinyue prayed for for your safety. Please accept it before you go to the competition, Brother Gu. This will put Xinyue at ease."

"Okay, thank you, Xinyue."

The man smiled slightly at her, took the amulet from Zhou Xinyue's hand, and hid it in his pocket in front of her.

Seeing how carefully Brother Gu treated the gifts he gave her, Zhou Xinyue was overjoyed.

"I'll go up first."

"Okay, Brother Gu, please be careful."

"it is good."

Gu Chaomu gripped her sword tightly and glanced at Xie Ze behind her before going forward.

Seeing Xie Ze nod slightly, he finally mustered his courage, gripped his sword, and stepped onto the arena. He was about to fight an enemy whose martial arts skills and internal strength were several times greater than his own.

"Yesterday, Young Master Gongsun won against more than a dozen people in a row, and no one broke his record. Now that a newcomer has arrived, I wonder what the outcome will be?"

"I heard he's Zhou Jiang's apprentice. Maybe this guy has some extraordinary talent, which is why Master Zhou took him as his apprentice?"

"Then this competition will be extraordinary."

"come on!"

The crowd below the ring cheered for the two men on stage.

Gongsun Yu looked at the person in front of him, who was clearly the same as usual, without any pressure.

Because he could see that Gu Chaomu, who was competing with him, was currently inferior to him in terms of internal strength.

Martial arts, you know.

He needed to probe first, but he wasn't flustered at all.

Meanwhile, Gu Chaomu stared warily at Gongsun Yu, his forehead covered in a thin layer of sweat.

With a "whoosh," the sword in his hand was drawn from its scabbard.

"bring it on."

"please."

Without saying anything more, Gu Chaomu raised the sharp blade and slashed at it.

The man in black easily dodged it.

He had no other weapons besides his feather fan.

His opponent didn't even use a sword in their fight, which was undoubtedly a slap in the face for Gu Chaomu.

He continued to grip the sword and slash at the dodging Gongsun Yu.

"The movement was too slow."

"Find the right direction."

"... "

Each time he struck, the opponent dodged and did not retaliate.

He kept lecturing Gu Chaomu, which made Gu Chaomu lose face.

At this point, everyone felt somewhat exhausted, thinking that the enemy was simply wasting their energy.

The crowd watching from below the arena all thought that Gongsun Gongzi was the most powerful, and they had high expectations for Gongsun Yu.

The only ones who truly hope for Gu Chaomu's success are Zhou Xinyue and Xie Ze.

However, Qiao Wanwan, who was watching the excitement from the sidelines, stood with her arms crossed and stared quietly at the arena.

She knows the plot, so there's absolutely nothing to worry about.

It now appears that the male lead is the weaker party.

But in any case, the final plot will definitely favor the male lead.

Therefore, the male protagonist will still win in the end.

Although she didn't understand how the male protagonist, being so weak, could possibly defeat his opponent...

We still need to see when the male lead's aura will appear.

"Since Young Master Gongsun is so clear about my strength, why not just make a move and have a real fight with me?"

Haha, are you serious?

What does that smile mean?

Gongsun Yu sneered disdainfully:

"Are you really going to fight me, and not just playing around?"

Gu Chaomu's face contorted with rage as he glared at the other person and cursed:

"Don't underestimate me, Gongsun Yu."

"Hey, not bad. That's the kind of look someone who wants to fight me!"

Gongsun Yu smiled, his eyes narrowing, then suddenly flashed a sharp light as he said earnestly:

"Well... I'll give you a good lesson from now on."

"bring it on."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gongsun Yu drew a soft sword from his waist.

The bullets made a "whoosh" sound as they flew through the air.

When folded up, it looks like a belt, and you can't tell at all that it's actually a sword.

"This is actually the legendary sword-making master's most satisfying sword, a soft sword that can't be broken no matter how you try to bend it. It's as flexible as a whip, and it can kill without leaving a trace when it gets close to the opponent."

"This sword is actually that powerful?"

"Of course, this sword has been lost for a long time. It's amazing to see it on Young Master Gongsun. It seems that we made the right choice to come to Biluo Manor. We've even seen the world here."

"If he's that good, then let's place a bet. I'm betting that Young Master Gongsun will beat Master Zhou's apprentice."

"I want to bet too!"

A group of people huddled together, placing their silver coins on the betting board that read Gongsun Yu.

Everyone thought that Gongsun Yu would definitely win this match.

Having already seen the gamble's potential, and knowing that he was likely to win, he eagerly began placing his bets, hoping to make a fortune.

Who else would dare to bet on Gu Chaomu to win?

Wouldn't I be laughed at to death?

To everyone's surprise, someone actually came over and bet against Gu Chaomu's chances of winning.

With a "snap," the side that had been all alone, without a single tael of silver bet, suddenly found themselves with more than ten taels of silver.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and looked up along the slender hand.

But then they saw a beautiful young woman smiling smugly at them and saying:

"I'm going to bet on Gu Chaomu to win."

"... "

Everyone looked at the beautiful girl and couldn't help but sigh.

I feel like she's not quite right in the head.

With such an obvious winner and loser, why did you bet on the losing side?

"Miss!!"

Chunxia rushed over in a panic and saw that the young lady had already placed the silver on the plate.

He then stepped forward to explain to everyone:

"Sorry, my young lady is naive and doesn't know what these things are. We don't place bets."

In spring and summer, he wanted to go forward and take back the silver.

But just then, the people who had started to place bets covered up their silver coins.

“Hey! Little girl, that’s not how you play. Since your young lady has already placed a bet, then let’s take the gamble.”

"That's right, how can you expect to get your money back after you've put it in?"

"this…"

Everyone was overjoyed, thinking that the silly girl's silver would soon become their wealth.

How could that be? Why would we let them take it back?

"Miss…"

“Don’t listen to her. The money I put out was for betting.”

"Young lady, are you really going to bet on that new swordsman?"

"That's right, I'm betting on Gu Chaomu."

"Haha, okay. Then let's look forward to it."

"very good."

Chunxia, ​​who was beside her, was extremely anxious, but Qiao Wanwan looked smug and not worried at all.

Looking at the money on the betting board, it must have been several hundred taels of silver.

Anyway, it will all be hers in a while.

Knowing the plot's direction and being able to secretly make a fortune is quite a good thing.

"Young Master, Miss Qiao has gone over there to place her bets."

Xie Ze kept watching the two people on the stage, observing their every move.

Hearing the message from Zhong Shi, his eyes darkened, and he asked curiously:

Who did she bet on to win?

"It's Young Master Gu."

"... "

Xie Ze couldn't help but chuckle softly, feeling a sense of relief.

Alright, then I'll help her make some money.
