Chapter 706 Tournament (15)
The referee from the Chu Family knitted his brows, clearly looking like he didn't believe this.
However, there wasn't anything that he could do since Mo Ze Chen was the only one awake, so he held the advantage here as the only person being able to recount what happened.
At the same time, Mo Ze Chen had been watching the reaction of the referee from the Chu Family.
Based on the expression that the referee from the Chu Family gave, it was clear that the Chu Family hadn't been involved in this matter.
Since that was the case, there was only one more person that he had to take care of.
He ignored the look of the Chu Family referee and turned to one of the people who were standing at the sides of the arena.
When that person saw Mo Ze Chen turning to look at him, he was completely confused why Mo Ze Chen was looking at him like this, but there was also a slight bit of panic that filled his heart.
After all, this person was the person that had been in the bathroom yesterday.
Lin Fan had been tracking him the entire time and he had already warned Mo Ze Chen about this. He also wanted Mo Ze Chen to see if Chu Huai was related to him.
That was why Mo Ze Chen had been able to react relatively quickly and had used his trump card without holding back.
Now, it was time to take care of this person.
After looking at him for a bit, Mo Ze Chen ignored everything else as he started moving towards the person who was Chu Huai's trainer. When the trainer saw this, he started taking a step back before realizing his mistake and firmly standing there.
That was actually something that confused Lin Fan.
Why would the Chu Family hire a trainer just for Chu Huai?
The Chu Family was one of the twelve great factions and they had plenty of resources to help Chu Huai with his cultivation. So why was this trainer hired for Chu Huai?
Unless they were also in on this as well.
Mo Ze Chen eventually came off the stage and stood right in front of the trainer, looking him right in the eyes.
The trainer was completely unnerved at this point as he asked in a voice with a slight tremble, "What is it?"
Mo Ze Chen without a single word raised his hand and punched the trainer in the stomach, sending him flying.
The Chu Family referee immediately spoke up after seeing this. He roared out, "Contestant Mo, what are you doing?"
He would have rushed right at Mo Ze Chen, but there was the Hunters Organization referee beside him not letting him make a move.
However, he still had to speak up since even if he was an outsider, the trainer was someone that was hired by the Chu Family. So at the very least, if he was attacked and they allowed it to happen, it would hurt the Chu Family's prestige.
But when he saw the trainer who stabilized himself, he immediately knitted his brows.
The appearance of the trainer shifted until it completely changed.
It didn't take much for him to understand what happened, the trainer was clearly using some kind of illusion technique to hide his true appearance. That meant that the illusion that had broken just now was clearly made by this trainer.
Putting these together, it was easy for the Chu Family referee to recognize that this trainer must be the one behind all of this.
He no longer cared about the Chu Family reputation because this involved something even more important, the life of their Chu Family's next generation's most talented genius.
If this trainer was using illusions during their fight, who knows what else he had planned?
Seeing that the Chu Family referee was no longer focused on him, the Hunters Organization referee also turned to the trainer.
In fact, all around them were experts from the twelve great factions.
They had already known that something was going to happen, but now that someone had actually snuck in under illusion, this was a great shame for them.
Since he had already come, there was no need for him to leave.
Not to mention that they had to protect what really mattered, the contestants!
When the trainer saw that he had been completely surrounded, he didn't panic at all. Instead he revealed a smile as he looked at all the experts around him.
"Well it seems like the jig is up. Then there's no need for me to stay here any longer."
After he said this, he pulled out a small ball just like the one that Chu Huai had pulled out earlier, but this one was a different colour. Instead of being yellow, this one was completely white.
As soon as he brought it out, there was no hesitation at all as he crushed it.
There was a white glow that appeared, but then it quickly disappeared. After it was gone, the trainer was left there standing with a stunned look on his face.
"What's this? What's happening? Why didn't it work?!"
The little ball that he had crushed was a ball that was filled with space laws.
He had planned on using this to escape, but now it seemed like it had failed.
Why?
This was a ball that was filled with Nascent Soul Realm laws, it wasn't something that could be countered easily!
The twelve great factions could counter this if they had been prepared, but they never expected anyone to use spatial laws to try and escape, so there wasn't any barrier that had been prepared to counter this.
But that didn't mean there was no barrier at all.
Lin Fan had already known about their plot, so he had made his move earlier.
He had Brainy control the Child Soul Realm beasts that he had tamed to form a barrier around this arena, one that would block any attempts at using spatial laws to escape.
With how many Child Soul Realm beasts that he had deployed, it was easy for them to block Nascent Soul Realm laws, especially when it was just a small amount stored in a little ball.
The experts of the twelve great factions quickly overcame their daze and immediately jumped into action. Without much effort, they easily caught the trainer who was still stunned over the fact that his escape plan failed.
They also quickly sealed off his life energy so he wouldn't get another chance to escape.
After that, they quickly took the trainer away and had the MC come onto the stage to calm the crowd, but those with sharp eyes could see that the important people from the twelve great factions had already left the stands.
There was also someone who had come to pick up Lin Fan.
He was given a cloak before he met up with old man Qiao and he was brought to a room where all the important people of the twelve great factions gathered.
Once everyone was gathered, the trainer had been brought in.
It was clear by the bruises on his face and body that he had already been interrogated to a certain extent, but it was also clear by the stumped looks that the ones bringing him in had that they hadn't gotten any information from him.
As soon as the trainer was brought in and he saw the people in the room, he broke out in laughter.
This strange laughter made all the people in the room knit their brows as they were confused why this man was laughing.
After all he had been caught and there was clearly no way out for him. No matter how one looked at it, it was a desperate situation for him and he shouldn't be acting this way.
So why was he laughing?
Once the trainer finished laughing, he said a few words that answered everyone's question.
"You think you've won just because you've stopped me? The plan goes much deeper than you can imagine." Once he finished speaking, the man burst out in laughter again.
All of the people in the room knitted their brows deeper.
One of them came forward to grab the trainer by the collar to bring him up to his face before saying in a low roar, "What do you mean?"
As he said this, he used his aura to pressure the trainer.
The trainer shrunk back slightly under this pressure, but the smile never disappeared from his face.
He looked right up at this person and asked with a smile, "Have you heard anything from the people you've sent yet?"
The expressions of everyone in the room changed after hearing this.
After this matter had been exposed, all of them had sent someone to check on the geniuses of their faction. After all, this was clearly a plot that was targeting the younger generation based on what had happened.
When they thought about it, they found that it was strange that no one had responded after all this time.
They immediately turned their attention away from the trainer and focused on their watches as they tried calling their people. However, no matter how they tried, they weren't able to get in contact at all.
The person who grabbed the trainer by the collar earlier grabbed his collar again as he roared even louder, "What did you do?!"
The trainer broke out in laughter again, but this time he didn't say a thing. He didn't need to say a thing to make it clear that he was taunting them.
There was an unsettling silence that filled the room.
