[Beep! Your friend "Yun Tian Kong" is participating in the eleventh "Group Selection Match". His three opponents were affected by his bad luck. One of them could not suppress his realm and broke through the Golden Core bottleneck, ushering in the "Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation". The other two were less than a hundred feet away and were severely injured by the "Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation". "Yun Tian Kong" won without a fight.]
...
[Beep! Your friend "Yun Tian Kong" is participating in the fifteenth "Group Selection Match". His three opponents were affected by his bad luck. One of them self-immolated, one had a demon possession, and one was so scared that he surrendered. "Yun Tian Kong" won without a fight.]
...
Hao Ren looked at the string of "dynamic messages" and was speechless.
Speaking of which, Yun Tian Kong and the others weren't actually competing; they were "coasting to victory."
They didn't have to do anything. Yun Tian Kong alone exuded "terrifying bad luck," and their opponents "self-destructed" one after another.
The power of "bad luck" was too strong, too terrifying!
Soon, all of Yun Tian Ping's opponents were defeated, for various inexplicable reasons: self-immolation, self-destruction, diarrhea... In short, they lost unfairly.
Yun Tian Kong and his team advanced and, in a very short time, secured first place in their group.
They successfully qualified!
Without any pressure!
The surrounding crowd was either extremely excited or cursing loudly.
Those who were excited, led by the short, stout Taoist, were the ones who bet on the "Lucky Team" and made a fortune.
Those who were cursing were naturally the ones who bet on the "Lucky Team" to lose and ended up losing heavily themselves.
Regardless, the "Lucky Team" became wildly popular.
Elders from various sects and factions rushed to witness these three lucky youngsters.
Sometimes, luck is also a kind of strength!
When luck reaches its extreme, one can win without a fight!
The "Three Heroes of Heavenly Dragon" were completely overshadowed.
This made some people unhappy.
The representative of the "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" lodged a strong protest.
They demanded a re-examination of the match procedure for "Match Stage No. 188."
After eighteen re-examinations, the match procedure for "Match Stage No. 188" had no problems whatsoever. The "Lucky Team's" performance was entirely compliant and impeccable.
The representative of the "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" was still extremely displeased!
This year's "Latent Dragon Ranking Selection Competition" was supposed to be their "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land's" moment of glory. They couldn't possibly let a few brash youngsters ruin it!
They had to suppress them!
The "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" had always acted domineeringly. They made a second request to modify the competition schedule.
After the "Group Selection Matches" ended, the "Ranking Matches" would not commence immediately but would have a one-month interval.
With a month as a buffer, even the most powerful good luck would dissipate, right?
The "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" meticulously planned their scheme, but they didn't know that the "Lucky Team" relied not on good luck, but on Yun Tian Kong's "terrifying bad luck."
Forget resting for a month; even if they rested for ten years... Ah, Yun Tian Kong's "terrifying bad luck" would only become more ferocious!
The "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land's" calculations were destined to fail.
The addition of an extra month to the schedule caused many people to voice their opinions!
"I protest, it's taking too long!"
"Exactly! Why extend it by a month for no reason? My pill furnace in my cave dwelling is still refining pills. What if they burn?"
...
Various "voices of opposition" clamored.
The "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" shut everyone up with a single sentence.
"Compete if you want, or get lost. This year's Latent Dragon Ranking Selection Competition, the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land has the final say!"
The other four holy lands also mediated.
"Heh, esteemed fellow cultivators, please don't misunderstand. We are not extending the schedule for no reason. In fact, this is a benefit for everyone!
For this month, we won't be idle. For twelve hours a day, holy land experts will take turns to 'preach the Dharma' to everyone.
A great offering of benefits!"
After a "combination of punches," all dissenting voices were suppressed.
The schedule for the "Latent Dragon Ranking Selection Competition" was also extended by a month.
During this period, Yun Tian Kong and the others became "super internet celebrities."
Wherever they went, admiring cultivators vied to shake their hands, hoping to share in their good luck.
The result...
The cultivators who shook Yun Tian Zhong's hand experienced nothing, neither good nor bad luck.
Those who forcibly shook Yun Zhao Zhao's hand mostly got "ambushed" in the dead of night. The culprit was very cunning, and they were not caught until the "Latent Dragon Ranking Selection Competition" ended. All that could be said was that one seemed to have seen an "angry monkey"...
Letting you touch my Zhao Zhao's hand, I'll beat you to death!
Finally, those who shook Yun Tian Kong's hand suffered greatly.
Some cultivators went berserk on the spot!
Some cultivators, after taking only two steps away, found the talismans in their storage bags spontaneously combusting and exploding for no reason. The poor cultivators were blown into the sky!
Some cultivators' bodies were fine, but they suddenly received a "flying sword message" from their mother: "Before I die, I must tell you this secret. Actually, your father is not your biological father. Your biological father is Uncle Wang next door, or perhaps Uncle Zhang... or maybe Uncle Zhao..."
Upon closer inspection, there were twelve uncles, a whole football team with a substitute!
Their minds were blown!
The poor young cultivators' minds truly exploded on the spot!
They roared to the heavens, vomited three liters of blood, and fainted on the spot!
...
In short, Yun Tian Ping single-handedly took down twenty to thirty potential young cultivators.
The "Ranking Matches" had not even begun, and the 300 spots were no longer complete, with twenty to thirty people withdrawing from the competition.
The terrifying Yun Tian Kong!
In response, the people from the "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" expressed great satisfaction!
The "Lucky Team" started to have bad luck, and everyone who came into contact with them suffered along with them.
Gaga!
As they say, what goes around comes around, it's the will of heaven!
What goes around always comes back!
However much luck the "Lucky Team" had before, they would have that much more bad luck later. This was fate, unchangeable!
The people of the "Heavenly Dragon Holy Land" were very confident that after a month, the "Lucky Team's" good luck would turn into utter misfortune, and they would die a miserable death.
Yun Tian Zhong and Yun Tian Kong were unaware of these matters. They continued to cultivate as usual, awaiting the "Ranking Matches" after a month.
Inside the cave.
Hao Ren, after observing the "dynamic messages" of Yun Tian Zhong and the others, slowly relaxed his worried heart.
From the current situation, there were no "protagonist-like figures" who would create dramatic plot twists and face-slaps in the "Latent Dragon Ranking Selection Competition." Yun Tian Zhong and the others should not encounter too much danger. He hoped everything would go smoothly for them!
Hao Ren shifted his attention back to the situation around the cave.
For the past two months, it had been peaceful and stable in the real world.
Su Mu Xue was still undergoing her "inheritance trial" in the "Fire Domain"...
Wang Dong was still constantly confessing his love to Yun Yao Yao, and Yun Yao Yao was still scared to tears every time. She was still a child...
Wang Teng Long was still cultivating the four paths, and another sixty thousand words were omitted here...
Han Mo had begun studying "The Self-Cultivation of a Hermit Cultivator"...
