The ultimate transmission fear beast stands on the Douluo Continent.

Chapter 433: Battle of wits?

Shui Bing'er emphasized the three "very"s, which made Wang Shuo's eyes widen.

"Even if you have a martial soul fusion technique?"

Shui Bing'er nodded: "Even if we have the martial soul fusion technique."

There was an uproar in the audience.

Showing weakness in front of one's own ace is undoubtedly the most damaging behavior to morale. Could it be that after killing two great generals, Hu Yanli and Yu Tianxin, Gu You's accumulated power is so great that he can force the opponent to be afraid before the battle?
Tianshui University is not a fake college.

Another reporter pressed the issue, "Sir Shui Bing'er, aren't you worried that your teammates will lose their fighting spirit?"

"Of course not," Shui Bing'er answered without hesitation: "The gap between us and Tiandou Royal Academy is visible to the naked eye. Rather than retaining a reckless intention to fight, it is more important to have the courage to continue fighting despite knowing the gap."

The flawless answer made everyone present stand in awe, and applause broke out like a tide. Even Qin Ming temporarily forgot about his opponent and admitted from the standpoint of a teacher that Shui Bing'er was very competent as the captain.

Except for one other person.

Gu You was also clapping, with a very sunny smile on his face.

"Reckless desire to fight? This is interesting."

Don't get me wrong, his smile doesn't mean he's happy. On the contrary, if he doesn't smile, the mockery in his eyes will be revealed.

Gu Youren was so annoyed that he had held a pre-match press conference so that he could brag a lot and give the simple Douluo natives a psychological shock.

By the way, reproduce some classic trash talk to make it a "classic that will be passed down forever".

such as
He pinched his index finger and thumb together and shouted to the stunned leader of the Elephant Armor Academy, "Hey, buddy without a nickname, remember to tell Hu Yanli that he almost forced out my fourth soul skill."

Or.
Yu Tianxin, who was lying on the ground and doubting her life, heard warm words in her ears: "It's bad luck for you to meet me before the finals, but be happy, man, the wonderful summer vacation has begun."

and many more.

As a result, because the opponent's strength was weaker than expected, using psychological warfare was a bit unkind.

In addition, because of his high moral standards, he cannot say low-level trash talk, so Gu You can only say a few random words to keep up the occasion and prevent others from mistaking him for a mute.

By the way, find an opportunity to play the hidden school of psychological warfare.

Now, the psychological warfare that I failed to play has been picked up by the opponent and played with.

It is also said that "the gap between it and Tiandou Royal Academy is visible to the naked eye" and "the strongest offensive system of the new generation".

What's the matter? Your Tianshui Academy is wealthy, and you are ready to make a good relationship and give away your unused soul bones?
Even the butt knows it's impossible.

"Success?"

Not noticing that there was anything wrong with Gu You's smile, Shui Bing'er, who was using psychological warfare for the first time in her life, pursed her lips and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"Fortunately, he is a strong attack beast soul master, otherwise it would be difficult to fool him."

Shui Bing'er thought so, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

"Hey, I don't mind if you want to use a trick, but can you please not reveal your true intentions?"

Gu You couldn't help but complain in his heart.

In the original novel, Shui Bing'er was described by Dai Mubai as "wise" and "having eyes somewhat like Tang San", but this is the level she performed at?
Gu You said that young people are not very cunning, which is completely understandable. But it shouldn't be difficult to simplify things and put on a serious face.

If you deal with a mistress, you'll be killed!

Gu You couldn't help but rub his face.

Qin Ming glanced at him and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

"fine."

Gu You responded muffledly, letting go to reveal his slightly red cheeks underneath: "I feel the game is too easy, reminding myself not to get too carried away."

"?"

The difficulty of the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul Fusion Technique is relatively low. Do you want to fly to the sky?

Or is it that I am just an ordinary genius, so I can't see what the top geniuses see?

Qin Ming, the second youngest Soul Emperor in history, was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to respond.

The reporters below noticed the movement at Tiandou Royal Academy, and as if they had telepathic connection, they turned their attention collectively and threw questions to Gu You and Qin Ming.

"Captain Qin Ming, do you think the final can also be concluded before the team battle begins?"

"Captain Qin Ming, does your Royal Fighting Team have any special means to counter the martial soul fusion technique? Can you briefly reveal it?"

"Mr. Gu You, as the strongest offensive force of the younger generation of the empire, what do you think of Shui Bing'er and the Tianshui Academy team she leads?"

"Mr. Gu You, I heard that you are still single. Do you have any plans to find a girlfriend in Tianshui College?"

Gu You: “???”

As expected of Tiandou City, there are even "reporters" who have advanced to "paparazzi". I don't know how they got in.

There was a lot of noise in his ears, which made Qin Ming's scalp numb. He stretched out his hands and pressed them down, and waited until the scene was quiet before answering: "As everyone knows, Tianshui College is one of the top high-level soul master colleges in the empire, and has trained many outstanding soul master talents."

"Especially their new control master Shui Bing'er. I think she is one of the best control-type soul masters of the new generation."

"I can't guarantee whether the game will end before the team battle begins. Anything can happen before it ends. Let's see what happens next."

Qin Ming's answer was flawless, but it obviously failed to satisfy the reporter's appetite.

But the competition was approaching, and they knew it was impossible to get any interesting information. So the reporters all turned their eyes to Gu You who was silent at the side.

Come on, big-mouthed offensive type, tell us what you really think!

As if he could hear everyone's thoughts, Gu You, who was always willing to help others, crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, put his legs on the table, and showed a rebellious smile.

"Ladies and gentlemen, hold on to your paper and pens and write down everything I say."

Glancing at every face in the audience, Gu You spoke in the most arrogant tone of his life: "As we all know, the world is both ruthless and sentimental. It will wantonly scatter all kinds of bizarre misfortunes on most people, but will show unconditional favor to a few lucky ones."

"The former refers to all the stepping stones to participate in the competition. The latter."

Gu You paused: "It's me."

Everyone in the audience looked at each other in shock.

The people of Douluo Continent are simple and honest. Even the disciples of Haotian Sect, who are famous for their arrogance and protection of their shortcomings, look down on others only after Tang Chen's name became famous throughout the world.

A young soul master actually pointed at someone's nose and called him a "stepping stone" in public. In a sense, this was a first.

A reporter shouted, "Mr. Gu You, aren't you worried that your team will be defeated by Tianshui Academy's martial arts fusion skills?"

"Worried? You said I was worried? Pfft, hahahaha——"

The challenge of holding back laughter failed, and the laughter from the bottom of the heart resounded throughout the room. The huge sound waves seemed to blow the roof off, and even the refreshing laughter echoed outside the corridor.

"Mr. Gu You?"

"Sorry, sorry, your joke is so funny, I just can't help it."

Gu You took a deep breath and tightened his face, afraid that he would accidentally laugh out loud again.

If the dinosaurs don't show their power, do you really think they are reptiles that can't be helped? So what if it's the ultimate ice, so what if it's the martial soul fusion technique, it seems like it's invincible.

Haven’t you seen that the previous and next users of the Ultimate Ice, who possessed the fusion skills of the four martial souls, were still trained like dogs, and did not explode and overturn the table until the end.

"Unlike soul beasts, humans are very strange creatures."

Gu You said: "Talent determines the lower limit, and nature determines the upper limit. Without the tenacious heart of a strong person, a person who is born to be a stepping stone is just a stepping stone no matter how talented he is."

"The gorgeous martial soul fusion technique is nothing more than combining two stepping stones into one super large stepping stone."

"Answer me, journalist friend, when you walk on the road, do you worry that a rock under your feet might suddenly jump up and bite you?"

".No." "Right, no one is afraid of the stones under their feet."

Gu You shrugged his shoulders and raised his right hand. Under the light, his five fingers inexplicably carried a chill unique to weapons.

"What's more, we have five, five different ways to deal with the Ice Phoenix. How can you make me worry?"

The reporters were shocked: "Five?!"

Shui Bing'er beside him also widened her eyes, which made Gu You laugh: "Don't be surprised, Captain Shui Bing'er, you will at least be able to see one of them later."

After saying this, Gu You stood up and, like a young tyrant, declared his will to his subjects: "The chaotic times of warring factions have officially come to an end. From now on, only one name is allowed in the sky of Tiandou City."

"Welcome to the new era."

After leaving the noisy press conference and closing the door, my ears suddenly became a lot quieter.

Seeing that there was no one around, Gu You, who had just acted like "I am the only one in the world", quickly took off his disguise and returned to his true self.

Take it in three steps.

The first step is to lower your head and close your eyes.

The second step is to pinch the center of your eyebrows with your thumb and index finger.

The third step is to let out a long sigh like a wail.

"Oh~, what a trouble~~~"

How shameful, really shameful. That middle school boy just now wasn't me. I'm so ashamed to face people.

"Stop sighing and let's go."

Qin Ming put his hand on Gu You's shoulder and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "A real man's words are as good as a nail. Be careful not to mess up."

According to the plan, today's final will not be decided quickly, and the situation will be artificially made to appear "tense" to give teammates as many opportunities to perform as possible.

As for winning the championship, it is up to Gu You.

In fact, personally, he doesn't want to see the team take the risk of losing the game and rely on unpredictable team battles to determine the key to victory or defeat.

Anyway, the goal is to win, so the most rational choice is to use all the main forces to crush the opponent.

But unfortunately, not only the new team members who were bribed by Gu You early on, but even the old team members who had been carefully taught for a long time, mostly did not support his views.

The reason is very simple, four words, because he is kind
No, because of the opportunity to play.

Firstly, since the Royal Fighting Team did not play in the first two rounds of team battles, even if it was as fair as possible, except for Tang San who was not there and Ranta who could not play, the number of playing opportunities allocated to each person was still halved compared to other academies.

There is no time to choose opponents, just get the chance to play first.

Secondly, Gu You, who used to be good at listening to others' advice, suddenly showed an incomprehensible persistence, which was uncharacteristically true.

"Because we didn't play well in the first two rounds, the fans who bought tickets to support us lost money. So we should give back to the fans and make it up to everyone in one go in the final."

Gu You said this at the meeting.

Qin Ming knew he was talking nonsense, and Gu You also knew he was talking nonsense, but the other people in the team felt that this twisted logic made some sense.

The idea is probably: 'Everyone supports me so much, I should give a more exciting game.'

Human beings are creatures that are born to know how to get satisfaction from the flattery of others.

Soul masters are no exception.

After the game, the Royal Fight team interacted with the audience and signed autographs, which was a carefully created opportunity to gain a sense of "satisfaction."

Ordinary people satisfied their curiosity, and soul masters satisfied their vanity. Both sides benefited from each other, killing two birds with one stone.

There's no law that says a handful of bait can only catch one type of fish, right?

Finally, Gu You said that he had prepared four different secret weapons, and even if all of them failed, Meng Yiran would be his backup, so he would definitely not lose.

Thinking of Meng Yiran's second soul skill which he had never used in front of outsiders, Qin Ming had no choice but to let Gu You do whatever he wanted, no matter how reluctant he was.

Just play casually on the field, just don't lose your soul bones.

".I see."

Gu You nodded, then pretended to turn around: "I will go back and admit my mistake now."

"roll!"

Subconsciously kicking Gu You on the butt, Qin Ming laughed and scolded: "It doesn't matter if you lose face, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has dignity. As His Royal Highness's future deputy, don't learn from Yu Feng's careless appearance!"

"Yes, yes, I understand."

Gu You patted his butt and didn't take Qin Ming's words to heart at all.

He appreciated Qin Ming's kindness, but his personality was different from that of "Xue Qinghe", so there was no need to put himself in a difficult position.

Soul Masters and Imperial Heirs: The former value strength or potential, while the latter emphasizes personality charm and means. Young soul masters with unlimited potential, whether they are rebellious or licking dogs, are more likely to be favored by those above them if they have character flaws.

You are right, right? A man named Huo who is lacking love.

Qin Ming, who was completely unaware of the situation, nodded with satisfaction: "That's good to know."

The time spent joking around always passed quickly, and soon, the two stood side by side at the door of the lounge. Through the crack in the door, Qin Ming could vaguely hear the heated discussion inside, so he put away his smile and slapped Gu You on the shoulder.

"Xiaoyou."

"uh-huh?"

"Go in and lead everyone to victory."

Feeling Qin Ming's slightly trembling palm, Gu You blinked and wanted to say something, but it ended up as a chuckle.

"as you wish."

On the other side, the Tianshui College lounge.

"Sister, what should I do?"

As the vice-captain who was supposed to share the captain's worries, Xuewu felt her mind go blank.

There are five methods to solve the problem of the Ice Phoenix. The number may be exaggerated, but the content itself cannot be wrong.

The opponent, the Royal Fighting Team, might have really mastered some method to counter the martial soul fusion technique.

Soul bone? Domain? Or the same martial soul fusion technique?

The powerful abilities and treasures that were famous in the world of soul masters flashed through Xuewu's mind one after another, making her upset. Finally, she simply gave up thinking and placed her hope on Shui Bing'er who lowered her head in thought.

"Quiet."

Shui Bing'er opened her eyes, and a pure chill that had nothing to do with soul power unconsciously emanated from her body.

"The roster has been submitted. Thinking about it further will only lead to meaningless internal friction. Don't think too much about it. No matter what happens during the process, you must stick to the plan."

"Haileu."

"exist!"

Yu Hairou, one of the only four soul masters in Tianshui College and a strong attack soul master, took a step forward.

Shui Bing'er said in a deep voice: "I leave it to you."

"Don't worry, big sister."

Under her heroic short hair, Yu Hairou, with her fighting spirit ignited, whispered to Shui Binger: "I will do my best to force out his fourth soul skill."
