As Lu Wuyi's statement, "Stump me, and you're the champion," was uttered,
the entire Phoenix Nest Training Hall instantly fell silent.
Everyone knew the difficulty involved.
12 steles, 144 puzzles.
The types and difficulty levels of the puzzles varied.
Even if Lu Wu had known the answers beforehand, it would have been useless because he wasn't solving the puzzles chosen by the competitors.
Instead, he would be solving the puzzles chosen and modified by the competitors.
Such puzzles were definitely harder and more tricky than the ones on the steles.
And for this tricky set of puzzles, Lu Wu needed to solve 96. To everyone, this was an impossible task.
At the same time, Gutian in the audience understood Lu Wu's malicious intent all at once.
To others, Lu Wu had to solve 96 puzzles.
To him, Lu Wu did not need to solve that many; in fact, he only needed to solve one.
