142: Chapter 142 A Phoenix's Determination, Let's Drink Some Champagne
"Maybe twenty percent!"
Zhou Bai thought for a moment, then spoke slowly.
"How... How much?"
Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Mu Qinghuang was stunned, thinking she had misheard.
"Twenty percent!"
Zhou Bai held up two fingers and spoke slowly.
After confirming she hadn't misheard, Mu Qinghuang felt a wave of helplessness in her heart.
"Zhou Bai, with our lineup, Big Brother Ye is already severely injured, and Wang Tianba's strength is mediocre. It's no exaggeration to say that Aaron Helens alone could directly take down all three of you, let alone two Sixth-Ranks and four Fifth-Ranks..."
Then, Mu Qinghuang continued slowly.
"Since you already have your own thoughts, why ask me? If I say twenty percent, it's twenty percent!"
Zhou Bai acted as if he hadn't heard her and continued.
Looking at the serious Zhou Bai in front of her, Mu Qinghuang felt a bit dazed.
In her mind, the image of Zhou Bai riding the Azure Cloud Thunder Dragon to slaughter the ferocious beasts not long ago involuntarily surfaced.
Back then, he was truly like a god descending from heaven, allowing Xia Country to successfully turn the tide.
But now...
"I believe in you too, Zhou Bai. Do your best!"
Thinking of this, Mu Qinghuang let out a soft breath and then spoke with absolute determination.
"Do you really want to win?"
Hearing Mu Qinghuang's words, Zhou Bai asked thoughtfully.
"Of course, this is the World Martial Arts Competition. How could I not want to win!"
Mu Qinghuang bit her red lips and then spoke in a deep voice.
"If there were a way for our Xia Country to win, would you be willing to give everything?"
Zhou Bai continued, his gaze fixed directly on Mu Qinghuang in front of him.
"Give everything?"
Mu Qinghuang looked at Zhou Bai, slightly stunned for a moment. Then, her eyes became firm.
"If we can really win against Country M, I am willing to give everything!"
"Including... being * by me?"
Zhou Bai continued speaking.
Mu Qinghuang: o((⊙﹏⊙))o!!!???
Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Mu Qinghuang's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
"Zhou Bai, don't make such jokes. It's not funny. Even if you have merits in the World Martial Arts Competition, it's not capital for you to be so presumptuous!"
Mu Qinghuang was so angry that her chest heaved, and she gritted her teeth.
"It seems your determination to win isn't strong enough!"
Hearing Mu Qinghuang's words, Zhou Bai shook his head and then turned to walk toward his room.
Watching Zhou Bai leave, Mu Qinghuang's expression flickered. Zhou Bai's words still echoed in her mind.
Her determination to win wasn't strong enough...
Moreover, she could sense from Zhou Bai's tone and expression just now that he didn't seem to be joking.
No, I have to ask clearly what's going on...
Thinking of this, Mu Qinghuang didn't hesitate. Dragging her tired body, she knocked directly on Zhou Bai's door.
Zhou Bai opened the door and let Mu Qinghuang in.
"What did you mean just now? If I let you * me, you can win?"
After entering the room, Mu Qinghuang spoke bluntly, her gaze fixed on Zhou Bai.
"There are some things I can't tell you, but if you really let me * you, tomorrow, I have a ninety percent certainty that I can crush everything!"
Zhou Bai pondered for a moment and then said to Mu Qinghuang.
"Ninety percent certainty!"
Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Mu Qinghuang felt it was utterly absurd.
Country M had three Sixth-Ranks and four Fifth-Ranks. How could there be a ninety percent chance of winning...
But Zhou Bai's words still caused a ripple in Mu Qinghuang's heart.
Coupled with the continuous matches since entering the Ancient Mystic Realm for the World Martial Arts Competition, the constant fighting with ferocious beasts, and fighting until the end against the ability users of Sakura Country on the stage...
Now, she was unable to participate in the final battle for the championship.
All these things caused a towering fire to rise in Mu Qinghuang's heart, and her reason seemed to be slowly dissipating.
"Then come, let me show you my determination!"
Mu Qinghuang gritted her teeth. Then, a faint flame surged out, burning her dress to ashes.
Mu Qinghuang's charm was fully displayed before Zhou Bai.
Seeing the beautiful and moving Mu Qinghuang, who looked like a perfect goddess, Zhou Bai was slightly stunned. He clearly hadn't expected Mu Qinghuang to be so crazy.
"Come, didn't you want to * me? Come on!!!"
Mu Qinghuang then said coldly, her gaze sharp as she looked at Zhou Bai.
Hearing this, Zhou Bai stepped forward and gently embraced Mu Qinghuang, saying softly, "I have felt your determination..."
"Tomorrow, everything that stands in my way will be destroyed..."
After saying that, Zhou Bai slowly...
Mu Qinghuang felt Zhou Bai's determination, and similarly...
...
The palace of Country M.
The ability users of Country M were gathered together. At this time, their atmosphere was much more relaxed.
After all, because Perfume Country's strength was too weak, they had dealt with them cleanly today.
Although they lost one member, the remaining members still had extremely strong combat power.
And their opponent tomorrow, Xia Country, had suffered heavy losses and couldn't even have a full team participate.
The situation between the two sides was already very clear.
"Hahaha, no matter how much they struggle, the final championship still belongs to our Country M!"
"Yeah, so what if he has the highest individual points and a Seventh-Order Dragon King Beast? Being beaten like this by Sakura Country, what do they have to win with..."
In the palace, many ability users from Country M were opening champagne, speaking with confident disdain.
Previously, Country M had maintained its dominant leading position. In the third stage, they were overtaken because of Zhou Bai's Seventh-Order Dragon King Beast.
But through subsequent matches and a miraculous draw, Country M had once again seized the initiative.
Now, with a luxurious lineup, they could face their opponents with full strength tomorrow.
This made everyone very excited. Going from an advantage to a disadvantage and then regaining an absolute advantage was truly intoxicating.
"Aaron, have a drink. Our Country M is about to win the championship..."
Sixth-Rank Esper Kane opened a bottle of champagne and handed it to Aaron Helens.
"The World Martial Arts Competition isn't over yet. We can drink tomorrow too!"
Aaron Helens rejected Kane's champagne and spoke slowly.
"Aaron, Xia Country only has a few half-crippled guys left. Our Country M is sure to win. Have a drink?"
Beside him, another Sixth-Rank Esper, John, also spoke up.
On the other side, Eva Green, Theodore, Rodney, and Valentine, the four rookie ability users, were also drinking champagne.
Looking at the lively scene in front of him, Aaron finally didn't refuse and took a sip of champagne.
"That's more like it! We're about to win. What's wrong with drinking a bit early to celebrate?"
"That's right. We just need to wait for tomorrow. A half-useless Ye Wushang, a trashy Wang Tianba, and a Fifth-Rank small fry—I really can't imagine how we could lose!"
