Adams was also impressed by Lanqi's demeanor and mentality.

He is indeed a genius who could defeat the Saint of Destruction Adalis in a dangerous situation.

"and many more……"

Just as Adams was considering quitting this shadow world and no longer suffering from it, he frowned.

He pressed his hand against the wall with a little doubt, then put his ear to the back of his hand and closed his eyes to listen carefully.

So it went for a while.

Although it was very faint, he discovered that there was some slight movement next door!

Adam was suddenly shocked, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Lanqi, you despicable guy!"

Adams shouted angrily to the next door.

This bastard is capable of anything!

I almost fell for his tricks!

……

At the Jera Memorial Plaza, the students fell into silence.

This is very Ranchi.

He actually wanted to pretend to have quit and hide in the shadow world to trick Adams out!

After all, the real victory or defeat, according to the agreement witnessed by all the teachers and students of the Sage Academy, is still determined by the score in the shadow world.

If Adams had almost believed it just now, after Lanqi went out, he only needed to tell Adams, "Do you believe anything said in the shadow world? That kind of verbal surrender is not valid. It's just a reasonable strategy. We still have to abide by the treaty," and Adams would have been speechless.

Lanci was clearly playing psychological warfare and exploiting loopholes in the contract terms again.

Although pretending to surrender is a bit shameless, it is indeed the only way for Ranchi to win easily!

"If Adams had been less careful, it might have ended right there and then."

"Some lawyers are so despicable. They verbally trick you into making concessions, then slap the contract away!"

A fighter on the stone steps who had once been a victim said angrily.

Whenever they recalled the big sister Tserwini crying, they felt extremely regretful that no one in the dojo of the Fighter's Soul Team discovered the true identity of the newborn Lanqi.

Because of Lanqi, Tserwini has completely given up her fighting spirit, and no matter how they persuade her, she won't change. Even they can only wish the big sister to pass the bar exam smoothly...

"But... not only was Ranch's plan seen through by Adams, it also aroused his vigilance. It will probably be even more difficult to deceive Adams next time. What should Ranch do?"

The other students couldn't help but discuss in confusion.

In the Shadow World prison, there is a wall between Ranch and Adams, and they cannot see each other's condition.

But in the live broadcast, the view was directly facing the two men in prison, and the audience could see their expressions clearly.

Adams obviously still had some strength left, but Lanci was really frozen to death, and he couldn't choose to fight Adams to the end.

Lanqi has a lot of magical powers, but with his magic cards sealed, he can't even cast a first-level fireball, and can't even heal himself or keep himself warm.

Among all the Sages' Academy, only Lanqi's mastery of magic is so outrageous.

For Lanci, the decisive moment is actually approaching.

Some heavyweight operations should be carried out!

Chapter 190 Mr. Loren's Serial Misfortunes

In the freezing cold prison, in two separate cells, there was a brief silence between Lanch and Adams.

In the darkness, the only sounds that could be heard were the occasional sound of water drops freezing and the distant hum of wind blowing through the narrow corridors.

"What can I lie to you about?"

Lanci's voice sounded disappointed.

He was just frozen so hard that even his wrists were stiff, and his movements to exit the shadow world were quite slow.

"..."

Although Adams knew that Lanci was lying, for a moment he wondered if he had misunderstood Lanci.

His acting was so genuine that he sounded like he was disappointed at not being trusted.

But maybe it was because his plan did not succeed that he was expressing his feelings, and used this emotion to catalyze his already strong dialogue skills.

"Lanqi, I know that you are best at using strategies and psychological warfare, so there is no such thing as being mean or not. Today I will only discuss victory and defeat with you. If you continue to deceive me with the trick of surrendering, it will only make you look stupid and ridiculous."

After thinking for a while, Adams said coldly with complete certainty.

He would not blame Lanqi for anything anymore. After all, both parties had already agreed on the rules and regulations of this gambling fight. All is fair in war, and victory is the truth.

Just don't follow Lanqi's logic no matter what he says next.

This is also Lanqi's biggest weakness.

If his opponent doesn't communicate effectively with him, none of his tricks will work.

As long as he carries this principle through to the end, he will win this bet and Lanqi will lose!

Lanqi in the next cell did not respond when he heard this.

He simply walked slowly back into the depths of the cell and threw all the stockpiled supplies out from between the bars.

Hearing the crisp collision sound, Adams looked out in confusion.

He could see the supplies on the diagonal corridor through the iron bars. It seemed like Lanqi really didn't want to play anymore and had abandoned all the resources!

"what are you doing?"

Adams asked in surprise.

"Don't accuse me of deceiving you. If I really leave, people should have more trust in each other."

After saying this, any sound in Lanqi Prison suddenly disappeared.

"..."

Adams stared at the supplies on the ground through the iron bars and fell into deep thought.

Could it be that I really misunderstood Lanqi?

If Lanqi really meant well.

But I judged him by my own standards and would never trust him.

Wouldn't that make you look petty?

……

At this time at the Jera Memorial Square.

The stone pavement rippled in the rain, but this did not affect people's enthusiasm. The giant open-air screen in the square even attracted many passing students to stop and watch.

People held colorful umbrellas in their hands, forming small flower clusters. Raindrops slid down from the tips of the umbrellas and hit the ground, making a crisp "tick-tick" sound.

The voice was almost drowned out by the noisy discussion in the square.

"This Biyang guy is trying to fool Adams again!"

"Don't believe it, Adams!"

For some reason, it was the students of Ikerit College who started cheering Adams on.

Lanci was clearly playing psychology again.

The abandonment of supplies this time is undoubtedly a gamble, intended to speed up the progress of the game and achieve the ultimate confusion.

First, it is possible to deceive the opponent into feeling guilty and directly withdraw from the shadow world.

Secondly, it can also cause opponents to misjudge the abundance of their own resources.

Because many people who are familiar with Lanqi have already guessed it -

Lanqi will definitely find a way to take the supplies back to the corridor later!

The scene of the Ikerite students cheering for Adams made the several Alolan students who were watching in the square a little confused.

Isn't this the home ground of Ikerita Academy?

On the open-air giant screen.

Adams in prison became more and more confused the more he thought about it.

His conscience was indeed aching, and he was worried that he had misunderstood Lanqi.

Not long after, Adams' brows relaxed again, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Lanqi, stop pretending. No matter how you shake my mind or what you plan, I will never believe a word you say until this shadow world ends!"

Adams once again carried out his will and shouted to Lanqi next door with an extremely firm voice!

The more Lanqi communicated with him, the more it seemed like something fishy was going on.

As long as you eliminate emotional factors and think rationally, you can avoid Lanqi's trap.

Ranchi will always play mind games with you!

……

But then.

The Jera Memorial Square, which was just bustling with people arguing in the rain, seemed to have been cut off by some invisible force at some point.

The sound of raindrops hitting umbrellas and the ground, and the laughter of students, all disappeared, leaving only intense silence.

No one was able to make a sound, and they all stared at the giant outdoor screen with disbelief.

Apart from the continuous rain, there seemed to be nothing unusual around.

It’s just that in the audience’s perspective——

Lanqi really disappeared.
