Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 303: Mr. Bao's Appointment

"I came to the capital with you to see the world, and you asked me to challenge you?"

Li Zhi's voice full of disbelief suddenly sounded, echoing in the room. His eyes were wide open, as if he had heard something out of the ordinary, his face full of astonishment and confusion.

Hong Fan on the opposite side had a wry smile on his face, which was a bit flattering and awkward. He scratched his head and said, "Fighting in a ring is also a way to see the world... In this ring, you can fight with the masters in the company and see all kinds of new moves and fighting methods. Isn't this a good opportunity to see the world?"

He tried to convince Li Zhi with this far-fetched reason, but his words sounded a little unconvincing.

"Stop! I don't want to see this kind of world!"

Li Zhi rolled his eyes without hesitation. He never expected that Hong Fan, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes on weekdays, would actually trick him into the ring without saying a word.

This sudden arrangement caught him off guard, and he couldn't help feeling unhappy.

Seeing Li Zhi's resistance, Hong Fan hurriedly said, "Don't worry, why would I, Hong, rush forward for something that has no benefits? It will definitely benefit you."

Li Zhi's eyes flickered slightly when he heard this. Although he tried to keep his expression unchanged and remain calm, he couldn't resist the curiosity and temptation in his heart and asked, "What are the benefits?"

Although he tried to keep his voice steady, one could still hear a hint of anticipation in it.

Hong Fan's lips curled up slightly, knowing that Li Zhi was already somewhat tempted, so he said slowly: "As long as you participate, you will get ten contribution points, and... the first place will be awarded 100 contribution points!"

Hong Fan deliberately pronounced the words "one hundred contribution points" particularly clearly and loudly.

With a "crash", Li Zhi stood up suddenly. His movement was so sudden that the chair behind him made a noise.

His eyes widened, full of shock and surprise, and he asked uncertainly, "One hundred... one hundred contribution points!?"

It's no wonder that Li Zhi was so excited. You know, it's not easy to get the contribution points of the Night Tour Division. Different levels of tasks correspond to different contribution points.

Take Li Zhi's search for the Fantasy World Tree in the huge Leizhou for example. He worked diligently along the way, but the contribution he earned was only 100 points.

Li Zhi completed this task at the risk of his life and after traveling for several months.

Now, just by participating in a competition, you can get ten contribution points for free. If you can also win the first place, you can get a hundred contribution points at once!

More importantly, this is an internal fight within the Yeyou Division, so it is relatively non-life-threatening. This is undoubtedly a huge attraction for Li Zhi.

Li Zhi's originally dark eyes were now slightly red, just like a hungry wolf that suddenly saw its prey. He stared at Hong Fan closely, his throat rolling slightly, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Captain... I want to take first place!"

Hong Fan showed a look of "I knew this long ago" on his face, he chuckled and said: "Although the participants this time are all newcomers and people from the reserve, there are also many strong people among them. For example, Zhang Wenchu from the A class, Nangong Wen from the F class, and Duan Heng from the reserve, they are all good players..."

Li Zhi did not show any fear on his face. Instead, he grinned. There was a hint of ferocity in his smile. His eyes showed a resolute confidence. He said, "It's okay. We'll see who has the greater ability then!"

Seeing Li Zhi's high morale, Hong Fan nodded secretly in his heart. He had long known that people like Li Zhi, who had come all the way through a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses, had a tenacity and courage in their bones and would not be easily frightened.

However, Hong Fan had given a guarantee to Master Bao, vowing that Li Zhi could take first place. Naturally, he would not just talk but would definitely provide some help to Li Zhi.

Hong Fan took out a scroll of paper with words written on it. He said, "This contains information about the participants in this competition. Take a look. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to success. Knowing your opponent in advance will definitely help you in your performance in the ring."

Li Zhi nodded and reached out to take the paper handed over by Hong Fan.

Although he was confident, he was not ignorant and would not give up this advantage. It was better to know the detailed information of the opponent in advance than to be in the dark when the time came, knowing nothing about the enemy and having to deal with it blindly.

Li Zhi quickly glanced at the densely packed information on it. Although it was just a quick glance, he had a general impression. Then, he stuffed the paper into his arms, raised his head and asked, "When does the competition start?"

Hong Fan replied, "It will start in four days. Although the time is not abundant, it is enough for you to make some preparations."

Hearing this, Li Zhi immediately had an idea in his mind and said, "Okay, then I'll go practice."

He understood that these few days were extremely critical for him. Although there was not much time left before the competition began, as long as he used it properly, it would be enough for him to familiarize himself with the reactivated heart fire and make it work again, so that his strength could be further improved and consolidated in a short period of time.

"and many more..."

Hong Fan stopped Li Zhi who was about to leave. His expression became serious and he said, "Mr. Bao wants to see you."

Li Zhi frowned, feeling somewhat puzzled. He and Mr. Bao were strangers and had never met before, so why did he want to see him for no reason?

Li Zhi glanced at Hong Fan and thought to himself, could it be that Hong Fan was acting as a pimp in the middle and introducing him to Mr. Bao? Li Zhi couldn't help but have such doubts in his heart, and a hint of suspicion appeared in his eyes.

Seeing Li Zhi's eyes, Hong Fan knew what Li Zhi was thinking. He quickly said, "This is none of my business. It's just that your name is too famous and it attracted Mr. Bao's attention."

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and he became even more confused. He asked, "I am famous? I am just a small figure?"

Hong Fan laughed and said, "In the eyes of some people, you are the one who asked Xiaoyao Mountain to issue a wanted bounty, so you are naturally very famous. Master Bao has always been very interested in these things, so it is not surprising that he has heard of you."

Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, feeling somewhat reluctant, and then said, "Can I not go? I don't want to provoke an important figure like Master Bao."

Hong Fan's face straightened, and he said to Li Zhi seriously: "I tell you, it's best to go there. Master Bao is not an ordinary person, and it's not advisable to offend him..."

Li Zhi frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Hong Fan said, "Go ahead. Master Bao will definitely benefit from you."

Seeing Hong Fan tempting him with benefits again, Li Zhi rolled his eyes and said unhappily: "No matter how big the benefit is, I dare not take it. Isn't this benefit too hot to handle?"

However, Li Zhi really didn't want to offend Master Bao because he had already offended the Little Taoist Priest and King Zhou. If he offended Master Bao again, his situation would become extremely difficult.

At that time, let alone participating in the fighting competition, it would be better to just go back to Leizhou.

Moreover, he had offended the Little Heavenly Master and King Zhou. If he could borrow the power of Master Bao to accompany him, he would not have to worry about being targeted by King Zhou and his men in the capital these days. This might be a turning point, an opportunity that could be used.

So, after weighing the pros and cons, Li Zhi nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go to Mr. Bao tomorrow!"
