The fifth king of the elves

Chapter 1073 1073. Late Night Visitor
This is the first gym owner that Luther met in the Galar Championship. Judging from the level of the gym owners in the Galar region, Caidou belongs to the second army at this stage.

Although there are rumors that the official will raise Caidou's level, there is a lot of opposition.

The strength of a trainer is not determined by the number of fans. Caidou's ability is not enough to win the title of the first army gymnasium owner.

In fact, Luther thinks that the first army and the second army don't matter. After all, the gymnasium has been diluted under the current Galar tournament system. It is more like a link connecting the past and maintaining the history of geographical attributes. The owner of the embassy and the local area can continue to benefit each other.

Luther doesn't know what kind of system is better. Perhaps only time can give an answer, so he won't belittle the changes Galar has made so far.

But these museum owners who are undergoing change are undoubtedly confused.

When wandering around Spike Town and meeting Mary, Mary once asked Luther a question.

"In the future, is the gym owner going to develop in the direction of an idol?"

Witnessing what her elder brother Nie Zi has done for her hometown, Ma Li seems to have seen her own future.

Luther didn't answer Mary, he couldn't give any explanation, and if he was asked to speak, he would only tell Mary that he had seen some discordant scenes caused by fanatical star-making.

The Shouting Team is the product of that kind of fanaticism that went to more extremes. If the Galar Alliance intends to continue to promote it, then this product will only continue to be born in the land of Galar in various forms.

It's not good or bad, it just depends on whether the Galar Alliance has the ability to grasp the middle scale.

Caidou's confusion is exactly the same as Mary's.

At first she was famous for her own karate, then she became famous as one of the best trainers of the younger generation, and then she grew up and was sought after for her cute appearance.

Among the tags attached to her body, her favorite is actually being able to type this one.

Whether it is a cute appearance or a pleasing personality, it is actually a manifestation of outsiders imposing their own assumptions on themselves.

The praise she wanted was everyone's affirmation of her strength and cheers for the wonderful battle after she fought hard and defeated the enemy, not the random remarks about Caidou my wife and Caidou's number one in the world for no reason.

She didn't feel that these words were complimenting her, nor did she feel that these words expressed her love for herself. After experiencing the excitement when she first heard these words, as time passed, she was left with indifference and disgust for these words.

But she can't express it openly, because she is one of the owners of Suchuan Town, and her every move will affect the perception of Suchuan Town by people in various places who know Suchuan Town through herself.

"I'm not a vase." Caidou kept emphasizing this sentence in her heart.

Therefore, Luther's move to let her defeat Mary Luli easily touched something she had always wanted to face the last time.

The sound of footsteps came from outside the gymnasium. Caidou, who was meditating against the wall, slowly turned her head and stared in the direction of the door.

"You two, Caidou will be waiting for you inside." The apprentice of the gymnasium left after finishing speaking.

A pair of powerful hands pushed open the door, and the eyes of the old man who walked into the dojo met Caidou, and a chill rose up Caidou's spine.

When Caidou was young, she was playing in the woods with her family, and happened to meet two groups of elves fighting for territory.

When she was young, she remembered the ferocious eyes of the group of elves when they were fighting, but at this moment, she actually felt this breath from the eyes of the old man who walked into the dojo one step ahead of Luther.

Cai Dou felt that this was her own illusion, because when she looked again, the old man's eyes were not ferocious, but his eyes were full of kindness when he looked at Luther.

"I thought it was the Hongmen Banquet you mentioned."

The words that popped out of the old man's mouth made Caidou feel very strange, but Luther's answer was even more cloudy.

"Old man, don't use allusions indiscriminately after listening to the story I told Acerola. Today is our visit in person, and we sneaked here late at night. Cai Dou doesn't mean to treat you."

Caidou, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, stood up and stared at Luther without saying a word.

Logically speaking, the two of them would meet in the arena at noon tomorrow, but Caidou passed a word to Luther through Kojiro, but Luther had to go to the door in person after thinking twice.

"Use all your strength and compete with me. I don't accept acting."

When other people said this, Luther would just smile, and then take out an elf at random, and then hit him casually, sending him a defeat.

As for Caidou, Luther did not intend to do so.

"If you disturb me in the middle of the night, I'll cut to the chase. You ask Kojiro to convey my request, but I can't do it."

Caidou frowned at Luther's words, revealing an angry expression.

"Fighting with all your strength, this is the respect for your opponent. Luther, your achievements are higher than mine. It is not an exaggeration for me to call you a senior. I just want to know...whether there is no respect in the dictionary of the seniors."

With a sigh, Luther fell into silence.

He knew it would be difficult to explain, and if Kojiro was used as the mouthpiece, it would be even more difficult to explain, so he came here specially.

But when he arrived at the scene, Luther found that it was still difficult to speak, because he didn't know how to say "I used all my strength to fight, not respect, but abuse".

After a long time, Luther seemed to recall something, and said to Caidou with a smile on his face.

"My apprentice, Sijana, once met a group of trainers who challenged her in Binhai City."

"The trainer said, it doesn't matter if you go all out, I'm not afraid."

"It's worth mentioning that the trainer who said these words to Sigana is several years younger than her, and is a newcomer who just got the elf."

"If it were me, I would refuse to fight, or just fight and deal with it."

"But Sigana was very straightforward at the time. She really shot without reservation and beat the child violently."

"After I came back, I taught her a lesson..."

Luther looked at Caidou's trembling body because of anger, ignored it, and continued talking.

"Whether that child knows about Sigana's strength or not, sending shocking facts to that child will make it difficult for her to accept."

"Some truths need to be understood step by step, and some facts need to be understood little by little."

"Too direct and it becomes cruel."

Cai Dou walked quickly to Luther, Huishi wanted to stop him, but Luther waved his hand to stop him.

"You treat me like a child, like those flowers that need to be carefully cared for?" Cai Dou asked loudly, "Do you think I am the one who is incapable of accepting the final result?"

"Luther, this is not respect, this is contempt. You never regarded me as a real opponent. Isn't this arrogance?"

"Yes."

Caidou couldn't believe her ears, her eyes were wide open.

Luther repeated: "Yes, this is arrogance, and you can understand it that way."

"I am stronger than you. In order to prevent you from being hurt more, I chose to handle the battle between you and me gently, so you said that I am arrogant. From your perspective, there is no problem."

"But from my perspective, I'm just trying to be tactful."

"You are showing shameful sympathy. I just want a serious, waterless battle, but you don't want to. This is insulting me and my identity as a trainer."

"I am not a flower vase. I have been beating my body since I was a child and persisting in training. It has been more than ten years, and I have achieved today's results in trainers and karate."

"I have experienced the blow of failure countless times, none of which can defeat me, it will only make me stronger. This is the tenacity and determination of a warrior, and it cannot be shaken by a little wind and rain!"

The corner of Luther's mouth was slightly raised: "But you are just a vase."

Caidou's hand stretched out like lightning, and grabbed Luther's neckline. At such a close distance, this grab was almost impossible to guard against and block.

"Snapped."

A pair of calloused hands blocked Caidou's outstretched hand.

Huishi smiled coldly and bluntly: "Speaking of which, you can't do it, baby, baby, baby!"

Caidou's serious anger spewed out, her chest heaved violently, without the consciousness of stopping, she quickly took a step back, kicked up, trying to pass through the gray stone's defense, and kicked Luther's calf.

Huishi just leaned slightly, and blocked Luther's foot with his thigh.

"You broke the conversation." Huishi's words were full of complaints, but there was a taste of ridicule.

"No, it's better to say that this is the normal progress."

Luther took two steps back and said, "Don't get hurt."

Caidou had already launched an attack on the gray stone that stood between him and Luther, whipping his legs continuously on the arm that was blocking Huishi's chest.

A normal person would have arm troubles and lose consciousness after being whipped by this kind of force. However, Huishi's body was like a steel frame, and he was continuously attacked by Caidou without any inconvenience.

"More than enough defense, but a little bit less lethal."

Huishi commented with great interest, then turned his palm into a knife, and slashed diagonally at the base of Caidou's raised thigh, which was about to be kicked sideways.

The experienced Caidou rolled on the ground in a circle, supported the ground with one hand, stretched his legs, and stood up slowly.

However, the moment she tried to stand up straight, a piercing pain crawled from the root of her thigh all over her body.

Immediately there was numbness, as if there were countless ants gnawing at the affected position.

Huishi said: "It's okay for playing games, but it's really hard work. Your leg is gone."

"You...you are from the former Interpol..."

"But I can still recognize the style of our group of people. Yes, they are well-informed." Huishi moved his hands, "Little baby, are you ready, it's time for me to attack."

Luther couldn't see how Huishi rushed to Caidou, it seemed that he kicked the ground with his feet, and in the next second he flew to Caidou's side like a flying swallow.

Like Caidou, Huishi also raised his legs high and slammed down ferociously.

Cai Dou imitated what Huishi did just now, and slammed into the base of Huishi's thigh, but couldn't stop Huishi's attack at all.

The strong wind passed by her ears, and the flying wood chips hit Caidou's face. She was so embarrassed that she rolled on the spot to distance herself from Huishi, regardless of her aching thigh.

Where the gray stone feet fell, a large hole was smashed into the wooden floor.

"You know how to break it, but you still can't break it."

Huishi used his explosive power to approach Caidou once again, and Caidou, who was completely suppressed in terms of momentum, struggled to resist a palm knife that flew out from Huishi. Every blow skillfully avoided the position that would make Caidou lose control of the joints, and only smashed on the hard bone.

"stop!"

When Luther called to stop, Caidou was forced into a corner by Huishi in embarrassment and was attacked unilaterally, unable to fight back.

Huishi took two steps back and saluted Caidou respectfully.

That is the etiquette that symbolizes the end of the sparring.

Suppressing the pain all over his body, Caidou saluted Huishi, then couldn't stand it anymore, lay down on the ground, panting heavily.

"You are Huishi, the Interpol that Sigana said."

"Former Interpol." Huishi corrected, "Now I am an old man on Qidao, planting flowers and plants and helping researchers collect data."

Huishi smiled and said, "Do you know what is the core of the skills we have learned?"

"I heard from my father that the fastest and simplest method is used to make the enemy lose the ability to resist."

"How many rounds do you think you can withstand if I attack with all my strength?" Huishi decided to add a condition, "You can imagine that the person who fought against me just now is you ten years later."

Caidou hesitated for a long time, gritted her teeth unwillingly and said, "It's you."

Luther stepped forward, knelt down, sat next to Caidou, and said, "If the old man is serious, at least one of your hands and feet must be useless now."

"You want to tell me in this way that the release of water is for my own good?" Caidou said unconvinced, "But this is a sneaky change of concept. The battle between elves is not a life-and-death struggle, but a competition of honor. We should respect our opponents!"

Seeing that Caidou still thought so, Luther asked: "You said you are not a vase, okay, do you want to broadcast your confrontation with Huishi live after you recover from your injury?"

"What's the matter, if you lose, you lose. I'm not as good as others, so I'm afraid of being made public!"

"You are not afraid, what do the people in Suchuan Town think, and what do the Galar Alliance think?"

Caidou opened her eyes wide.

"Why do you stand out from the crowd and become the owner of the pavilion? Apart from your personal strength, you should know whether there are other factors."

"What the Galar Alliance cares most about you is commercial value." Luther said, "Your cute appearance, coupled with your strength, and your popularity are the motivation for the Galar Alliance to support you and package you."

"Your words, deeds, and actions involve many things."

"Do you think I look down on you if I don't fight with all my strength?"

Lude said earnestly: "Because you have a cooperative relationship with me, so I am thinking of you."

"Sooner or later, the league will dilute your competitive attributes and package your commercial attributes in a big way. What they need is you to be a vase obediently."

"If you perform well in the championship, the league may temporarily wait and see, and even change the original plan for your performance, but if you lose miserably to me..."

Luther stared at Caidou, but did not continue.
