"Lu Instructor, what are you looking for me for?" Zhou Hong asked with a smile.
"Of course, it's important. You are the only one in our class who has a chance to snatch the fire lotus, and I've participated before. Let me impart some experience to you."
"Thank you, Imperial Sister."
"Who's your Imperial Sister?" Lu Qianqian glared at Zhou Hong.
"Haha, then hurry up and tell me, don't waste time."
"Based on past experience, the key to snatching the fire lotus is speed. Because this is the Taigu Academy, if you get it, no one will dare to snatch it from you. But now, your speed advantage is weak, so you must find a lakeshore closest to the center of the lake. This will increase your chances."
"Heh, I know." Zhou Hong smiled. He didn't need Lu Qianqian to tell him this; anyone would understand.
"However, Zhou Hong, I'm not trying to discourage you, but you are only at the mid-stage of the Heart Movement realm. Even if you are at the closest spot, you still won't have a chance. You need to be mentally prepared."
"Don't worry, Lu Instructor, I'm prepared."
"That's good. Now, let me take you to the closest spot. I've participated before, so I know this lake and where to rush out from to be the closest."
"Mhm." Zhou Hong nodded. He didn't know this, and with limited time, he didn't have time to measure which spot was closest.
"Follow me."
Zhou Hong followed Lu Qianqian along the lake shore. After about ten minutes, Lu Qianqian pointed ahead and said, "That protruding shore ahead. Rushing from there to the center of the lake where the fire lotus grows is the shortest distance. Someone measured it, and it's about nine kilometers from that spot to the center of the lake."
"Oh, oh, but it's too crowded." Zhou Hong looked at the protruding shore ahead, which was already packed with people.
"Yes, I should have realized this earlier. It's too late for me to bring you here now," Lu Qianqian said self-reproachfully. At that moment, at least eight to nine thousand people were crowded on the protruding shore, and almost all of them were senior students in the Spirit Condensation realm.
"Lu Instructor, look over there. Aren't those all senior students in the Spirit Condensation realm?"
"Of course. They are seniors, so they naturally know which spot has the shortest distance to rush out from. I dare say all the seniors in the Spirit Condensation realm are already there. Zhou Hong, forget it. Wait for next time. There will be another chance. In ten years, you'll also be a senior, and by then, you'll probably have cultivated to the Spirit Condensation realm. You can't compete with them now," Lu Qianqian said comfortingly.
"Hahaha." Zhou Hong, however, smiled.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Lu Instructor, thank you." Zhou Hong felt a sudden surge of emotion. Originally, Zhou Hong wasn't very confident about his schemes and tricks. He thought that the senior students in the Spirit Condensation realm were scattered around the lake, so not everyone would be attracted at the same time.
However, he hadn't expected that Lu Qianqian would inform him that all the senior students in the Spirit Condensation realm were gathered at the closest shore.
This meant that Zhou Hong only needed to make a thousand beautiful women dance in the most direct line of sight, and everyone would see it immediately.
The moment they were stunned, Zhou Hong had already rushed a long distance. After rushing out, Zhou Hong could even intercept them again.
Since they were all starting from the same spot, Zhou Hong could intercept them very precisely. For example, if Zhou Hong deployed a smoke bomb, and after being attracted by the women, they reacted quickly, then another smoke bomb would obstruct their vision again, causing further disruption.
With two consecutive interferences, Zhou Hong didn't believe he couldn't achieve his speed.
He was even confident that he could snatch all the fire lotuses by himself.
"Hahahaha, hahaha." Zhou Hong burst into laughter, as if he had already envisioned the outcome.
However, imagination was just imagination. Whether it worked or not depended on the final result.
Seeing Zhou Hong grinning foolishly, Lu Qianqian touched his forehead and asked, "Are you okay? Have you gone crazy thinking about the fire lotus?"
"Lu Instructor, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to get ready."
"Alright, even though there's not much chance, you should still try your best. Go get ready."
Zhou Hong turned and left. When he reached a secluded spot, he entered his sub-world again.
Zhou Hong directly entered the sub-world, to the rehearsal site of the thousand dancing beauties.
When Zhou Hong arrived at the rehearsal site, his eyes were instantly dazzled.
"Wow, you guys are already...!" Zhou Hong quickly turned away. He hadn't paid attention beforehand and thought they would be fully dressed during rehearsal, but he hadn't expected this.
"Senior Zhou Hong, didn't you say you'd come an hour later? Why are you here so early? We've just started rehearsing."
"Heh, I was anxious, so I wanted to come and watch your rehearsal and offer some guidance." Zhou Hong was no longer shy and turned around to look at the thousand beautiful women.
Zhou Hong felt even more confident. With a thousand women dancing here, let alone men, even women would be instantly captivated. And it was such a provocative dance. Even Zhou Hong, with his strong willpower and many beautiful girlfriends, was still captivated, let alone others. Sudan Novel Network
"Ladies, let's not be distracted by Senior Zhou Hong. Let's start quickly and show the people from another world our beautiful dance, and show them how bold we are."
"Okay!" the crowd shouted.
Thus, they continued to dance. The dance was truly eye-catching and astonishing.
However, something seemed to be missing.
"Linna, stop for a moment," Zhou Hong called out to the leader, the blonde beauty.
"Huh? Senior Zhou Hong, how did you know my name is Linna?"
"I am the master of this world, so of course I can find out. Don't you think something is missing?"
"Of course, if there was music, it would be even better."
"Alright, I'll find some big speakers for you right away."
With a thought, Zhou Hong instantly transferred all the speaker equipment from a concert that was happening at that moment. At the concert venue, the celebrity was stunned. In the blink of an eye, all the audio equipment had disappeared.
"Is this audio equipment enough?" Zhou Hong asked Linna.
"It's good."
"Then you continue. I'll watch here."
Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
The dance moves were very simple, so an hour was sufficient.
"Senior Zhou Hong, what do you think?" Linna asked Zhou Hong.
"Excellent, very excellent. Even I was engrossed in watching. If anyone saw it for the first time, it would be hard not to be captivated. A thousand beautiful women, such a provocative dance, amazing, truly amazing." Zhou Hong gave a thumbs-up, unsure if he was praising the dance or his own ingenious idea.
