After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!

The duel continued fiercely, and in less than a moment, it was Gu Qingze's turn.

Just when he was about to follow the agreement and ask the Sixth Elder for permission to give up the duel as soon as he got on the stage.

Lin Yu, who was standing opposite him, suddenly spoke.

"Didn't Junior Brother Gu say before the duel that he was also looking forward to it? Why do you want to give up now?"

Can't you hear the polite words?

Just like "see you some other day", it was just a polite remark...why did he take it seriously?

Wait a minute, I haven't even opened my mouth yet, how did Lin Yu know that I wanted to give up this duel? Could he have the ability to read minds?

The more Gu Qingze thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. After all, everyone in this world could cultivate immortality. But why hadn't he seen it in the Sutra Library...

So, Gu Qingze stopped his random thoughts and asked with a smile.

"Why do you think I have such thoughts, Brother Lin Yu?"

"Because Junior Brother Gu, you have no fighting spirit at all. A sword cultivator wants to go all out in a duel. Even if it's just a perfunctory fight, there will be at least some fighting spirit. But as soon as you step on the stage, I can sense everything."

After hearing Lin Yu's explanation, Gu Qingze nodded, agreeing with him.

After all, fighting spirit, like sword spirit, is a very mysterious thing. Maybe my realm is not deep enough, so it is normal that I cannot understand it.

"Why did Junior Brother Gu give up this duel that you and I are both looking forward to?"

Lin Yu raised his question again.

Only you have one-sided expectations, okay...

And I don't know why you are expecting it. Obviously, there is a huge difference in cultivation level between us. You don't even need to use those fancy sword moves. A simple swing can kill you... There is no need to expect anything at all...

Could it be that Lin Yu likes the pleasure of completely defeating others?

Gu Qingze nodded in agreement. He liked it, too. Before he came into the book, he liked to bully noobs when playing games... But now, he was the noob!

Forget it, I'd better tell Lin Yu the truth and then give up the duel.

If I were in other peaks, I might still worry about being ridiculed for this action, but I am in Cangjian Peak. Senior Brother Helan is not in Qingyun Sect now. Of course, even if he is, he doesn’t care about this matter. Senior Brother Lu is a very good person and won’t say anything. As for Ling Xiao… If I listen to him and give up this duel… maybe he will give me a little reward tonight…

So, Gu Qingze pretended to be helpless and said.

"Brother Lin, there is a huge gap between our strengths. Although I look forward to fighting against a strong person, especially a strong person like you, I am unable to do so."

Lin Yu didn't know whether he understood what he said or not, so he nodded and said.

"So this is the reason. It's all my fault for not considering it properly and disappointing Junior Brother Gu. How about this, I will also suppress my cultivation to the early stage of the Golden Core, and we will simply compete in swordsmanship. What do you think? After all, this is a sword competition, so of course we should use swordsmanship. If everyone uses cultivation to suppress the opponent, then the sword competition will be meaningless."

An unexpected situation has occurred...

Gu Qingze didn't know what to do for a moment. Neither he nor Ling Xiao had expected that someone could be so naive.

What should I do now? Should I agree or not?
