There are seven people left. Whenever there is an odd number, there is always one person who gets a bye. It's a pity that this time number seven was taken by someone else.
Huo Yahan plans to take action personally this time.
Everything can be done once, but not three times.
The two consecutive times illusions were used could be explained by the other party's own personal reasons, but when such cases become more common and are no longer isolated cases, it is inevitable that people will become suspicious.
A disciple with useless spiritual roots who has just entered the sect for three months actually possesses an extraordinary spirit and can perform such exquisite and profound illusions without anyone noticing.
It would be too shocking if this news got out.
She didn't want to draw too much attention.
Although now it has received widespread attention because of that unreliable master.
…
“It’s the end.”
Sitting next to Xu Xiaotian, Huo Yahan glanced at her expressionless master, with ripples in her beautiful eyes.
To be honest, she didn't think standing out in such a small scene was anything to boast about.
She simply wanted to...get praise from her master?
The thought made her feel a little helpless.
It's just outrageous.
I am the Great Emperor!
Why would I want his approval?
Xu Xiaotian was generous in his praise, and nodded slightly, saying, "Not bad, very good."
"You don't look happy at all?"
Although she got the praise she wanted, Xu Xiaotian's indifferent attitude made Huo Yahan unhappy.
Shouldn't you be very excited? After all, a useless disciple who has only been in school for three months has created a miracle of winning streak for you.
And you are about to take first place and keep your position as the elder of Zizhi Peak.
Xu Xiaotian smiled faintly and gave the answer: "Don't be happy with things, and don't be sad with yourself."
In fact, he wasn't worried at all that Huo Yahan would lose.
It would be strange if the empress couldn't deal with this group of rookie disciples!
"Do not be happy with things, do not be sad with yourself..."
This was the first time Huo Yahan heard this sentence. After carefully thinking about its meaning, she fell into deep thought.
Don't be sad because of your gains and losses.
What kind of realm is this? Has my master's state of mind reached such a high level...
So, when he acted calmly when facing the closure of the Immortal Sect, he was not forcing himself but really didn't care.
Even she couldn't compare to such a transcendent and otherworldly mind.
Master...what kind of master is he? "Alright. It's almost your turn. Go down quickly."
Looking at the disciple who looked dazed and didn't know what he was thinking about, Xu Xiaotian reminded him.
"Yeah. Got it."
Huo Yahan nodded. She was just waiting for the call to be made.
"Relax a little and don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Xu Xiaotian symbolically comforted her, "Don't worry about disappointing other people's expectations."
Just as Huo Yahan was feeling a little touched by Xu Xiaotian's heartwarming words, she heard Xu Xiaotian continue to say:
"The only one who has expectations of you is you..."
Huo Yahan: “???”
[Your apprentice's stamina +1]
[Your stamina +10]
All right.
I almost thought that Master could really say something nice...
Huo Yahan, who had long been accustomed to it, had become a little numb.
"Please invite contestant number six to come on stage!"
Finally her turn was called, Huo Yahan immediately stood up and walked towards the ring.
After standing on the stage, Huo Yahan suddenly found that the fat man opposite seemed a little familiar.
"Junior Sister Yahan, I never thought that we would meet on the stage again..."
There was a look of helplessness on his opponent's fat face.
Huo Yahan frowned slightly: "Who are you?"
Fatty: “???”
"Well... we met yesterday. I didn't expect you to forget me so quickly..."
The fat man smiled bitterly at himself.
I searched for her everywhere, but when I turned around, she still looked down on me.
Then, his originally slightly sad look suddenly became serious, he straightened his back and introduced himself, "Sunset Peak, Jiang Chuanqing!"
This was the man who had approached Huo Yahan yesterday, but was deeply hurt and heartbroken by Xu Xiaotian's words.
However, Huo Yahan still couldn't remember him.
I'm too lazy to think about it.
It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter.
"Zizhi Peak, Huo Yahan."
After the routine greetings between the two sides.
"The competition begins!"
The voice of the disciple who was teaching the skills fell.
Fatty Jiang Chuanqing was not lucky either, but took a step forward and said nervously: "Junior Sister Yahan, I know that you have only been a disciple for a short time, and you have to attend the summit this time for your master."
"I'm very touched. I want to help you too."
"To be honest, you can't beat me. I'm already at the third level of Pei Yuan."
"But I am willing to give up the fight for first place for you."
Huo Yahan, who was already ready to take action, was not too surprised when he heard this.
Over countless years, there have been tens of thousands of people who have fallen at the feet of the Empress.
She was used to it.
"So, I abstain!"
Jiang Chuanqing, who had originally been the strongest contender for the first place, simply raised his fat hands at this moment and easily let go for love.
"How shameful! How shameful!"
The elder Zhifa of Sunset Peak immediately slammed the armrest.
"Why is this summit competition like a joke? Everyone is practicing Taoism, but they all give up as soon as they get on stage?"
The elder Tai Hengzi of Shenglong Peak also snorted angrily.
A bunch of soft-hearted guys!
If this continues, Xu Xiaotian might really have a chance to turn things around.
It's also the fault of the post-2000 generation of students, who are too impulsive! They give up when they are told to.
No sense of honor anymore?
Don't want the spirit stones anymore? However, they really have no other options for this situation.
Most of those who can be sent to the immortal gate for cultivation come from extremely wealthy families, especially the geniuses who are expected to reach the top of the summit. They often inherit their talents from excellent parents and are the second generation of cultivators with excellent bloodlines. Their families are not short of money.
It's normal to look down on those spirit stones.
Behind him, Nalan Hui, who suspected that his master's words were referring to him, shuddered subconsciously and felt very aggrieved.
I already told you, I wasn't acting crazy or giving up on purpose yesterday.
I really got caught!
"Junior Sister Yahan, I give up. I do it willingly."
Fatty Jiang Chuanqing said with a red face,
"I just want to ask you one question, and I hope you can answer me."
Considering that the other party was kind-hearted and had done her a favor for nothing, Huo Yahan was reluctant to say a word to him and said indifferently, "Ask."
"I just want to know...your first impression of me...how, how is it?"
Jiang Chuanqing asked nervously.
Not very good.
Huo Yahan could have told the truth, but in order not to hurt his feelings, she used very euphemistic language to express it: "I originally have two hearts, one good and one evil."
"But since I met you, all I have left is kindness."
After saying this, Huo Yahan left the stage without looking back.
Jiang Chuanqing was so overwhelmed by love that he lost his basic ability to think. He racked his brains but couldn't figure out the meaning of this sentence. When he saw Huo Yahan leaving, he became anxious: "What, what does it mean?"
Because it's so disgusting.
Huo Yahan was very kind and didn't say it directly.
"Huo Yahan from Zizhi Peak wins!"
