"Indeed, a lineage that can develop must have something extraordinary about it!"
Dao Ling Zhenren, though filled with emotion, seemed unwilling to be outdone. Seeing Zhao Yucai's actions, he followed suit, forming hand seals and chanting incantations.
Before long, a pale white halo spread out, adding another layer of protection to the golden superpower.
That was a small demonstration of my skills.
At this moment, although the high-ranking officials of both Huaxia and Taixuan Sizhen appeared to be enjoying themselves, the competition between them had already begun.
Only Zhao Yucai subtly curled his lip, let out a speechless "tsk," and cursed inwardly at the other party's damned desire to win!
Honestly, he didn't do this to show off at all!
The reason he used his special ability was simply to use the excuse of protection to carefully observe how the spiritual energy flowed within the bodies of these junior cultivators during battle.
He didn't know if the other party had seen through his little scheme or if it was just a fluke, but in any case, his goal had been ruined.
Now it all depends on how Wang Zheng and his team perform...
Meanwhile, Wang, the young master whom Minister Zhao was thinking about, looked at the fighting spirit of the people around him and felt that it might not be his turn to fight.
If Zhao Yucai knew what he was thinking, he'd probably be so angry he'd vomit blood.
As time passed, both sides who needed to fight were in place. The Chinese side didn't hesitate and didn't even consider who would go first or last, since they didn't know each other and there was no need to.
Following Wang Zheng's instructions, Fang Bi strode into the arena and began to quietly wait for his opponent.
Upon seeing Fang Bi enter the arena, the cultivators from the cave heavens who had been vying to be the first to perform immediately fell silent.
They originally wanted to compete to go out first because they put themselves in the shoes of the Chinese side, thinking that the other side would definitely try to win the first round in this competition and steal a victory, so Wang Zheng, who was the most famous, would definitely be the first to go out.
But to their utter surprise, before they could even decide who would deal with the opponent, the weakest boy on the other side volunteered to step forward.
This is so awkward!
Although they wanted to dampen Wang Zheng's arrogance and show the cultivators of Blue Star what a master of the Innate Realm was like, bullying a mere teenager who had only reached the Acquired Realm was unacceptable...
They're all privileged individuals; they still have their pride.
At this moment, even the true disciple of the Reincarnation Sect, who had just been ignored by Wang Zheng and reprimanded by his senior, lowered his head and was unwilling to bully this acquired awakener.
After a long silence, a weak voice suddenly came from the crowd.
"How about letting Junior Sister Yao go? Although she's still in the Acquired Realm, she's already touched the threshold of the Innate Realm, and with the Dao Fa Sect's spiritual artifact protecting her, her strength isn't weak either..."
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately someone echoed his sentiment.
"Good idea. Given the opponent's strength, we shouldn't bully the weak, lest we be accused of an unfair victory!"
"Absolutely right, absolutely right. And we can't let our junior sister come all this way for nothing. It would be such a waste to let such a hard-won opportunity for training go to waste."
"Senior brother is absolutely right. In any case, the competition is a ring match. If you win, you continue; if you lose, you leave. Even if Junior Sister Yao was careless..."
The group quickly decided to send the weakest junior sister to the stage, but before they could finish speaking, Junior Sister Yao objected.
Her small, cute face was filled with anger.
"What do you all mean by this? Who do you think you are looking down on? Do you think I'm bound to lose? This is really going too far!"
Seeing that the senior students around her all had expressions of "winning is great, losing is no big deal," the little girl was furious.
"I really didn't plan to go on stage, but now it seems I have no choice. Let's see if I can win first place and show you that I, Qin Yao, am not someone to be trifled with!"
As she spoke, Qin Yao strode forward, a jade hairpin on her head flashing brightly, exuding an impressive aura.
The group of senior brothers and sisters behind her looked at each other awkwardly, then started cheering her on with laughter, as if they didn't care about the outcome of the first round at all.
"Go for it, junior sister! Senior Brother Linghu said that if you win, he'll ask you out."
"Go, Junior Sister Yao! Win all four! If you win them all, we won't have to play..."
Cheers echoed across the empty arena. When Wang Zheng saw that it was the weakest girl among them who was going to take the stage, his eyes lit up.
"I knew these arrogant guys wouldn't be willing to back down. It looks like Fang Bi will be able to take them down easily."
Unlike Wang Zheng's optimism, Master Yan Hao, as Fang Bi's elder brother, was still somewhat unsure of himself.
"Although Xiao Fang is quite strong, his opponent is no pushover either. And even if this girl is a bit weak, the fact that she was able to come to Blue Star with us is enough to show her strength. We still can't let our guard down."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zheng laughed instead.
"Brother Yan, do you think Fang Bi is the type to be chivalrous towards women and look down on his opponents?"
Then he put on a show, looking like he was watching a good show.
"I wonder how I'm going to handle this after making someone cry~"
Upon hearing this, Yan Hao was speechless. Considering Fang Bi's usual quiet and honest personality, he couldn't say anything either.
He knew very well that Wang Zheng was right; the kid on the field was a simpleton.
