Chapter 3778 — Waiting for You to Yield
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 3
Unexpectedly, Wei Zhao looked him up and down with a half-smile, his face full of amusement. "Brother Zha Wu, are you certain you will not concede first? Because I am about to make my move."
Huh?!
"Wh-what do you mean?" For a moment Zha Wu wondered whether he had misheard. He stared at Wei Zhao in disbelief for a good while, and only then, aided by the unexpected clamor that broke out below the stage, did he finally react.
This creature Wei Zhao not only refused to concede himself—he was telling me to concede? This makes no damn sense!
Could this fellow really be so stupid as to not even understand such a simple situation? I was giving you a chance to dig yourself out of the pit and save yourself! The one who should be conceding right now is you, Wei Zhao, without a doubt—how could it possibly be me?
If I were going to concede on my own, then what the hell was the point of challenging you? Am I giving you points because I think I have too many?
It was not only Zha Wu. The newcomers on stage were all baffled, and even Meng Jueming and the others were dazed for a moment.
Originally, Zha Wu's opportunistic move had infuriated Meng Jueming. Although he had been vigorously encouraging his subordinate newcomers beforehand to challenge Wei Zhao and his group, Zha Wu—a weakling ranked dead last—challenging Wei Zhao head-on was not dealing with Wei Zhao at all; it was helping him.
Once Wei Zhao went along with it and conceded in exchange for moving to the No. 12 cave dwelling at the foot of the mountain, not only would it create an opportunity for Wei Zhao himself, it would also cause enormous trouble for Meng Zhou. Zha Wu doing this was simply screwing his own side!
Yet beyond everyone's expectations, this creature Wei Zhao did not take the bait at all. He had no intention of conceding to seize the chance to climb out of the pit. Not only did he fail to grab such a heaven-sent opportunity delivered right to his door, he foolishly told Zha Wu to concede. This could not even be described as stupidity—this creature Wei Zhao truly had a worrying lack of intelligence!
Not only Meng Jueming and the others, Senior Brother Kubi and Xiao Che and the rest were also stunned for a moment. The principle of retreating in order to advance—Wei Zhao understood it clearer than any of them. There was no reason that when it came to his own turn, he would fail to see the situation, was there?
Little did they know, retreating in order to advance, though the superior strategy, was not something needed at every moment.
If Wei Zhao were truly desperately short of points right now, then perhaps he really would have obliged the wishes of an opportunist like Zha Wu. But the problem was, even if he stubbornly held his ground at the No. 1 cave dwelling at the foot of the mountain, he simply did not lack those points!
That being the case, what the hell was the point of retreating in order to advance!
Wei Zhao looked at the flustered Zha Wu and smiled faintly. "Well? Concede outright, or have a proper fight with me? To be honest, my hands and feet are itching a little right now—a good chance to stretch my limbs."
"My god, are you an idiot! You have a chance like this and you don't grab it? What the hell would you fight me for? What good are my four measly points to you? Do you even understand the principle of retreating in order to advance?" Reality had come too cruelly, and Zha Wu could not help but roar in frustration.
With his pitiful weakling strength, he truly did not dare exchange blows with a madman like Wei Zhao. Otherwise, broken bones and torn sinews would be the least of it—one bad move and it would be a fatal blow, and losing his life over this would hardly be worth it. Yet he was unwilling to give up just like that, so he could only remind Wei Zhao in this manner.
