Xu Xiaotian stood up suddenly and looked at Huo Yahan with wide eyes.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Xu Xiaotian asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Huo Yahan shrugged: "You didn't ask."

"If you don't even want to compete, why are you still here?"

Xu Xiaotian was speechless.

"I see that Master is still sitting, so I will accompany you."

Huo Yahan holds her chin with both hands, looking so adorable.

"I saw you were still sitting, so I..."

Facing Huo Yahan's innocent eyes, Xu Xiaotian covered his forehead and suddenly didn't want to talk anymore. Like a deflated ball, he said, "Forget it, let's go home."

Huo Yahan smiled and stood up slowly. The cold and aloof girl actually followed her man like a well-behaved little woman, and left in full view of everyone.

…

The next day.

On the ring.

The disciple who was teaching the skills looked at Luo Shiyao, the disciple from Dawang Peak.

Luo Shiyao also looked at him.

Then he looked at Huo Yahan, who also drew number 37.

Then he explained blankly: "Uh, I'm not pregnant, and I'm not injured...well, I guess."

Hearing this, the spectators below the stage burst into laughter.

Huo Yahan's outstanding performance yesterday had already frightened her opponents, and they were a little unconfident.

After checking herself again and again and confirming that she was not pregnant and had no hidden injuries, she dared to go on stage.

"Well, can we start now?"

The disciple who was passing on the skills asked.

He noticed that the opponent Huo Yahan met today seemed a little guilty.

Hearing the question from the disciple, Luo Shiyao scratched his head, and without much thought, he raised his hand and said, "I'll give up..."

"Have you thought it through?"

The disciple who was teaching the skills had no expression on his face as he confirmed it again.

"Um."

"Dawangfeng Luo Shiyao, abstain!"

"Huo Yahan wins!"

This time the reaction wasn't as big.

Perhaps they were already used to Huo Yahan winning without fighting, or perhaps the opponent generously gave up and chose to help Huo Yahan stand up for her master, which was a common vision among everyone.

"Well done, Brother Luo!"

When Luo Shiyao stepped down from the stage with a wry smile, his best friend from the same peak came forward in time and gave him a thumbs up.

"Hey, with my current level of skills, I can't make it to the finals anyway, so I might as well do you a favor."

Luo Shiyao chuckled.

"It seems that there are still many good people in this world."

In the stands, Xu Xiaotian also smiled.

So far, Huo Yahan has won four rounds without a fight.

There are fourteen players left on the field.

In this round, Huo Yahan faced Nalan Hui, a male disciple from Shenglong Peak.

He originally wanted to obey the will of heaven and the people and choose to abstain, but at the moment when he was about to raise his hand, he received a stern telepathic message.

"If you dare to give up, I will break your legs!"

With a chill in his heart, he glanced at the stands where Shenglong Peak was located, and sure enough, he saw his short and fat master Tai Hengzi looking at him with a gloomy face.

"Okay... okay."

He could not disobey his master's order, so he could only bite the bullet and nod to the disciple who was also looking at him inquiringly, to show that he was ready.

"The competition begins!"

Following the order given by the disciple who was passing on the skills.

“Ahhh—”

After crouching down and gathering strength for a moment, Nalan Hui stomped the ground heavily and bounced out. The fingertips of his hands glowed silvery-white as he tore through the air and grabbed towards Huo Yahan, who was standing opposite him, as quiet as a virgin.

Then, he missed.

It missed.

It's empty.

.

Nalan replied: “???”

What just happened.

Where is she? Just when he was about to touch Huo Yahan with his claws, he found that Huo Yahan's figure flickered for a while and then disappeared.

It happened so suddenly that he didn't react at all.

An inexplicable chill surged into his heart. He suddenly raised his head, looked around, and then his pupils shrank sharply.

That slender and graceful figure, somehow, was behind him at this moment! At that moment, he sensed something strange.

What’s going on? Didn’t they say that she has only been practicing for three months, but her spiritual roots are useless?

If that was the speed just now, how could it be so fast that even I couldn't see it clearly?

Nalan's eyes widened.

Or is it that I didn't get enough rest last night and my eyes are blurry? How is this possible?

Then, he saw Huo Yahan smiling sweetly, walking backwards step by step with her long straight legs.

"I just don't believe this!"

Nalan Hui gritted his teeth, roared, and pounced on him again.

Facing his attack, Huo Yahan still smiled faintly and stepped back slowly.

When Nalan Hui was in free fall, he found that the distance between him and Huo Yahan was even farther, and he missed again.

"What's going on?"

Nalan Hui was shocked. Huo Yahan seemed to be walking so slowly, step by step, but it was as if the distance could be shortened to an inch, and in a blink of an eye, he could cover three or five meters.

Nalan looked back at the disciple who was teaching him kung fu, but he seemed not to notice this shocking scene and was just looking at himself with a frown.

Not only the disciples who were receiving the training, but all the audience were looking at him with strange expressions.

They turned a blind eye to Huo Yahan's abnormal behavior.

"What the hell is going on!?"

He realized that it might be his problem.

"Forget it, let's make it quick..."

He stared at Huo Yahan who was retreating further and further away, and this time he used all his strength to pounce on her.

Then--

Suddenly, the stars shifted before my eyes.

The mountains are still mountains, and the water is still water.

But Huo Yahan in front of him disappeared, and the arena that seemed to have no end was also gone.

After a free fall, his feet landed on the ground outside the ring...

Nalan replied: “???”

Then, he heard thunderous cheers from the entire audience, and a sentence from the disciples drowned out the cheers: "Out of bounds! Huo Yahan from Zizhi Peak wins!"

Nalan replied: “???????”

At this time, he was facing the stands where Shenglong Peak was located, and he saw his master Tai Hengzi looking at him with an angry face, and his chubby hands were slamming heavily on the railing.

A fat face, so red that it seemed like blood was about to drip out.

Nalan Hui looked back at the stage again, and what caught his eye was the graceful and slender figure of Huo Yahan as she walked down the stage calmly.

Suddenly Nalan Hui was confused, confused, confused, confused, confused...

Who am I? Where am I?

What am I doing? Can someone tell me what the fuck is going on!?

The story begins with Huo Yahan cracking the Tianxuan Baolu illusion array.

The prerequisite for breaking the illusion is to understand it.

Huo Yahan, who already had a high level of attainment in magic arrays, also learned a lot about the arrangement of the magic array during the process of cracking it, which took a month.

With the current spiritual cultivation level of the Yin Shen realm, it is not difficult to perform the "eye-catching" part without the help of external forces.

And this Nalan Hui became the first victim of her deception.

In fact, from beginning to end, Huo Yahan was there, neither coming nor leaving.

But she cast a spell to make Nalan Hui see the illusion of her retreating, guiding him to keep rushing forward, and finally jumping off the ring for unknown reasons.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone present, the scene they saw was...

After the disciple who was passing on the skills gave the order.

Nalan Hui suddenly and inexplicably pounced in the opposite direction of Huo Yahan, and after landing, he suddenly yelled: "I don't believe this!"

Then it suddenly pounced forward.

"What's going on?"

After muttering something in doubt to the air, he lunged forward neurotically again.

At this time, all the audience and disciples were stunned.

What kind of confusing behavior is this? Then Nalan Hui walked further and further away...

"What the hell is going on!?"

"Forget it, let's make it quick..."

After shouting to himself twice, everyone saw him jump directly under the ring.

Everyone: “???”

"What is this person doing?"

"If you want Huo Yahan to win, just give up directly. Why beat around the bush?"

"Still acting crazy and stupid, what's going on?"

"This acting skill is the wrong career. You should become an artist."

For a while, criticism was everywhere.

"Referee, that's not right! There was an accident. The one just now doesn't count, it doesn't count!"

Nalan, who was confused by the situation, ran up to the stage and was eager to explain to his disciples and the public, but what he got in return was only sympathetic looks and sincere words of consolation from his disciples.

"Brother, it's right to practice hard, but you also need to take care of your old brain."

Ps: I originally wanted to put the reveal aside for the next chapter, but then I thought it would be unethical to leave the answer stuck, so I just posted it in this chapter, so that the word count exceeded ==!
