Chapter 722 Chapter 724 Challenge
Bai Yihan won this round. Nan Xiaoya stomped her feet in anger and jumped off the stage first.
Rong Xianxian had been too focused just now, and now that she had some free time, she felt a slight pain in her head. The ultimate version of the aura detector on her head was small in size but consumed a lot of energy. The energy consumed by this neural access aura detector mainly comes from the user's soul power. If Rong Xianxian did not have strong soul power, it would be impossible for her to use this thing for a long time.
The next few groups of monks who came on stage were nothing special. One of them, a male monk wielding a trident, picked out the purple stone talisman pen that Rong Xianxian liked. Rong Xianxian wrote down the man's name, appearance, and the lottery number. Later, as long as she defeated him, she could get the pen back.
Next, she temporarily cut off the connection between the spiritual energy detector and her brain nerves, concentrating on cultivating her soul and adjusting her state, because it would soon be her turn to take the field. The combat mode of using spells alone, without using hot weapons or the Soul-Devouring Sword, was very unfamiliar to her, and Rong Xianxian did not dare to be careless.
Ren Chong's number was drawn after Rong Xianxian's. When he saw Rong Xianxian coming on stage, he sat up straight with great anticipation. Every sect or family has some unique casting characteristics or famous moves. Rong Xianxian refused to reveal her origins, but she had to use magic. Whenever she made a move, people could always see some of her details.
The opponent that Rong Xianxian drew had neither awakened natural energy nor powerful weapons, so she could only use ordinary spells to fight. However, this man lacked talent, but he made up for it with diligence. In addition, he had some understanding, so he used spells very skillfully. He started with a mountain-moving technique. A huge rock fell from the top of Rong Xianxian's head, but Rong Xianxian dodged it by gently moving backwards. Seeing that the move had failed, the man immediately launched a series of attacks.
While dodging, Rong Xianxian was thinking about how to fight back. It was the first time she encountered such an opponent. In the environment on Earth, no matter encountering outsiders, monsters, or opponents, they would always fight for their lives. In order to ensure that there would be no mistakes, she would always use the most drastic means to fight quickly and decisively. But now it was different. This was not a fight for life, but a competition. In Rong Xianxian's opinion, this person's strength was average. She had dozens of ways to make this person fall down immediately. However, if the battle ended so quickly, she would miss a good opportunity to explore and practice. With this idea in mind, Rong Xianxian was not in a hurry to decide the winner. She just wanted to practice what she had just learned.
Rong Xianxian's first battle lasted for a full forty minutes before it ended, and she successfully won the prize. During the entire process, she neither used ice spells nor took advantage of her mental power. She didn't even use common weapons like Thousand Silks and the Soul-Calming Bell. She simply used spells to fight. At the beginning, her casting speed was slow, but later it gradually became smoother.
"Where did you make this friend?" Uncle Ren San asked Ren Chong beside him with a frown.
"He's on the way!" Ren Chong watched the competition on the stage intently.
"He's not even proficient in basic spells. You can tell at one glance that he's not from a famous sect. No wonder he doesn't dare to reveal his origins!" Uncle Ren shook his head in disappointment.
"Then how come she has a flying magic weapon in her hand?" Flying magic weapons are extremely precious and it is impossible for ordinary small sects to possess them.
"Humph, who knows how she got it? Even if she has a flying magic weapon, based on the strength she has shown so far, I'm afraid she can't keep it." Uncle Ren hinted at something.
Rong Xianxian did not hear the conversation between the uncle and nephew of the Ren family, nor did she know that because of her performance, many people secretly regarded her as a prey.
After the first stage, the challenge round began. Rong Xianxian wrote down the number and name of the man who had picked up the purple stone talisman pen, intending to challenge him. Before she could report the information, someone jumped onto the stage, "Taiyi Palace Yuan Jiujiang challenges number 49 Rong Xianxian!" In order to get one step ahead, this person did not follow the procedure and went straight on stage to challenge.
Seeing that no one in the referee's seat stopped her, Rong Xianxian jumped onto the stage. Yuan Jiujiang lost in the first round and did not get the prize. He needed to defeat the player who won the prize before in a challenge match to qualify for the ranking competition.
Rong Xianxian was his chosen target, and he was confident that he could defeat Rong Xianxian quickly and take the prize from her.
"Yuan Jiujiang is a disciple of Taiyi Palace and is good at using escape techniques. If your friend is only at the level he just demonstrated, I'm afraid he is no match for him!" said Uncle Ren.
"Third Uncle, don't forget that Miss Rong has a flying magic weapon in her hand. How could it be that her ability is only at the level she just demonstrated?" Although Ren Chong said this, he was somewhat skeptical in his heart about how capable Rong Xianxian really was.
Rong Xianxian fought against Yuan Jiujiang. Rong Xianxian had already deduced the superb escape technique that Yuan Jiujiang was proud of. Although she did not remember this person, she remembered the trajectory of the spiritual energy of the escape technique. At this time, when Yuan Jiujiang used the escape technique, Rong Xianxian saw traces of it everywhere. In less than half an hour, Rong Xianxian kicked Yuan Jiujiang off the stage.
Here, Rong Xianxian had just kicked Yuan Jiujiang off the stage when, with a "bang", someone jumped onto the stage impatiently, "Miss Rong, do you dare to accept my challenge?"
Rong Xianxian frowned, ignored the man, and bowed to the referee's seat, "According to the rules of the challenge, I am now the champion and can choose my opponent. I want to challenge Gu Xicheng." Gu Xicheng was the cultivator who had taken the purple stone talisman pen earlier.
"In this match, Rong Xianxian will face Gu Xicheng. The winner will win the prize that his opponent won in the first match." Someone from the referee's seat announced loudly.
Rong Xianxian knew that Gu Xicheng practiced wind magic and was as fast as lightning, so she slapped a speed talisman on her body. However, when they started fighting, she found that Gu Xicheng had not exerted his full strength in the previous fight. At least he had never used the conch-like sound attack weapon in his hand before. The sound waves were invisible and were good at attacking the soul, making it hard to defend against. Unfortunately, this time he met Rong Xianxian, whose sea of consciousness and soul strength far exceeded those of practitioners of the same level. The soul attack launched by Gu Xicheng not only failed to work, but was backfired.
Seeing Gu Xicheng on the stage suddenly fall to the ground with his head in his hands, the audience was in an uproar, "What's going on? What just happened?" Everyone was talking about it.
"Ren Chong, what happened just now? Did you figure it out?" Uncle Ren asked with a smile.
"The horn snail in Gu Xicheng's hand can launch a spiritual attack. He launched it, but failed. It seems that Miss Rong's spiritual power is very strong." Ren Chong analyzed.
