"But I might not even win this match." Before, she had never placed anyone in her eyes, but after being thwarted in Hua Ruge's competition with him, she no longer had much confidence in herself.
"Calm down and fight well. With your current strength and the sword skills that you have grasped, most people in the same realm as you are no match for you." Hua Ruge said with determination.
Ye Wanrou nodded seriously: "If you say that, then I have confidence. I will go and take note."
After she finished speaking, she turned her head to look at the arena seriously, leaving Hua Ruge to eat by himself.
Tuoba Rui sat opposite to her, and was looking in her direction through the stage.
Although the battle was in full swing, people like Tuoba Rui could still move the heartstrings of many people, especially women who looked in his direction. In the end, they saw Hua Ruge eating something there with a depressed expression, and it was completely disgraceful.
When they looked at the expression in Tuoba Rui's eyes, the slight unhappiness they saw was naturally read as disgust.
Thinking about it, it made sense. A girl didn't care about her manners at all. In such a big occasion, it was really embarrassing for a man.
Hua Ruge also felt Tuoba Rui's gaze and raised his head to wave his hand. His smiling lips were still stained with crumbs of pastries.
In the end, Tuoba Rui quickly retracted his gaze and no longer looked at her, then took out a tea set to make tea. Hua Ruge was a little greedy, but in this kind of situation, it was not good to go over, so he could only give up.
Many women found her laughable at this moment, and felt that the relationship between her and Tuoba Rui was definitely not that strong. Every single one of them had their own thoughts, thinking that if they could perform well on the stage, they might be able to attract Tuoba Rui's attention.
Looking at Tuoba Rui, she looked extremely elegant, even when she was making tea, she did not seem to be gracious, as though she was in a different dimension, making her unreachable.
Hua Ruge also looked around from time to time, shaking her head at the same time. She felt that Tuoba Rui's existence was a violation of the rules, even if she looked at him everyday, she wouldn't be able to produce any beauty fatigue, it would be weird if he didn't attract bees.
She sighed and turned her attention back to the great deity's arena. The two people in the first round had already passed the probing stage, and now they were on their own. It was extremely intense.
However, most of the girls would peek at Tuoba Rui when they were still around.
Tuoba Rui then poured the brewed tea into a teapot, and passed it to Service Disciple who was standing by the side, and said something.
Immediately, everyone saw the Service Disciple going around the stage, walking past the plaza's outer perimeter, from the back, they walked to the boundaries of the Yuxu Sect and stood in front of Hua Ruge's table, passing him the tea.
Hua Ruge was startled, then he heard from Service Disciple: "Senior brother said that the pastries are too sweet, and eating too much will cause my throat to feel uncomfortable, thus I steeped some tea for me to send over."
"Understood, thank you." Hua Ruge nodded in thanks, and the disciple went back.
She was actually happy, but the women who saw this scene couldn't react at all, especially the ones who were just laughing at Hua Ruge for not showing off and being looked down upon by Tuoba Rui.
This was because in this era, men were basically the ones who held the most power. Most women were only appendages to men, and doing what they should do might not even garner the respect of men, let alone Hua Ruge who did not seem like a man at all.
But what did they see? Not only did Tuoba Rui not get angry, he even made tea for her and served her pastries.
Hua Ruge did not care what their eyes were like, he only looked at Tuoba Rui, and their eyes were all filled with pink bubbles.
Seeing the look of her doggy legs, Tuoba Rui's gaze softened.
Luo Qingqing, who was watching from the side, was extremely jealous, but at the same time, he also felt a deep sense of powerlessness. When she thought that even though she had used all her strength, she still could not get even the slightest bit of attention from Tuoba Rui, and then, seeing how considerate he was towards Hua Ruge, she truly felt that it was useless even if she did not put in any effort.
Although Hua Ruge did not like to keep a high profile, but since Tuoba Rui had already done it, she could still calmly eat and drink.
While Hua Ruge was eating and drinking, he heard the words Service Disciple saying something about a gambling house in a city. Thus, he decisively took out a card and asked the service brother to help her suppress herself.
As Hua Ruge was also born into a menial service, his relationship with these servants was very good. These people were naturally willing to help him with his card.
Hua Ruge sat and counted the money.
After the fourth match, the servant ran back and said, "Sister Hua, no gambling houses have set you up."
"Why?" Hua Ruge was curious.0
Didn't they just say that the competitions and the people had been spread out and the gambling houses had begun?
"I asked. People said you would definitely win. After opening the gambling house, they would place their bets on you. This way, wouldn't the gambling house lose money?" Service Disciple said.
Hua Ruge smacked his forehead and said, "How am I this angry?"
's appearance when he made the Service Disciple was still vivid in his mind, but who would have thought that with a shake of his body, he had already become a figure known by everyone in Yan Du City.
Hua Ruge was still feeling troubled when she received the Spirit Stone Card, she still had plenty of ways to use money in the future. She couldn't give up such a good chance to earn money, so she started to think.
She quickly came up with a plan. After all, the competition was not just limited to this one. She had to hide her strength in this one, and only needed to use a small amount of strength to fight her opponent. This way, she would be able to quickly create her own gambling house.
She couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth.
When Ye Wanrou turned his head to her table to get the pastries after researching tactics, he couldn't help but ask her when he saw the smile on her face, "Who are you scheming this time?"
"Is it obvious?" Hua Ruge asked with a little bit of guilt.
Ye Wanrou nodded his head, "In any case, I can tell that you're not thinking about anything good when I see this smile on your face."
"Then I'll change it next time." Hua Ruge humbly accepted it.
"Not counting the people?"
Hua Ruge shook his head, "I won't let you see it."
Ye Wanrou shivered, at the same time he made up his mind not to offend Hua Ruge.
By the afternoon of the arena battle, his Great Immortal Stage had already fought eight matches, and his Immortal Sovereign Stage had already fought ten matches. As for the eleventh match, it was Hao Shou who was fighting against a Superior Sect disciple who used a long blade.
Just then, the two of them flew up onto the stage, Hua Ruge did not lower his head to eat, Ye Wanrou did not focus on tactics anymore, and looked over.
Recently, Hao Shou had lost a lot of weight, from 300 kilograms, he became more than 200 kilograms. Adding on his sturdy body, he did not look that fat, but he was still smiling, looking at his weak attacking strength.
