After their conversation, an outsider might easily mistakenly believe that Murong Qingyi and Xiang Taiyan had a very good relationship. Only they themselves knew that it was all based on the premise that Xiang Taiyan could win the competition. If he lost, he knew very well the consequences...
The harmonious and loving scene between the two can instantly turn into a battleground...
Murong Juehu and Murong Li also expressed their unwavering support for Xiang Taiyan, which made Xiang Taiyan even more emboldened...
"Tuoba San, it's not too late to admit defeat now, otherwise you'll regret it later..."
Xiang Tai turned to look at Tuoba San, wanting to vent his pent-up anger. He had already suffered so many losses; this time, he was determined to get his revenge...
Do you really think you've got this in the bag?
Tuoba San calmly countered with a question, which startled Xiang Taiyan, whose eyes widened in surprise and uncertainty. This match was crucial for both sides, especially for Xiang Taiyan, who was particularly unable to remain calm…
Why was Tuoba San so calm in the face of an inevitable defeat? What gave Tuoba San his confidence?
"This is the third time you've said this kind of trash. You should remember very well what happened the first two times. Saying something like this proves you really don't learn your lesson..."
Faced with Tuoba San's calm words, Xiang Tai became increasingly suspicious. The important thing was that Tuoba San was telling the truth, and every time he said these trashy things, he would be slapped in the face...
"Junior disciple, don't listen to his nonsense. He's just trying to distract you. Now, all you need to do is step into the palace above you, and you'll win this competition..."
Murong Qingyi shouted immediately, and these words indeed calmed Xiang Taiyan down. He looked at Tuoba San with a cold smile and said...
"Heh... I admit I was careless the first two times, but what makes you think you can win this time? I'm not afraid to tell you, this palace is the residence of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden. No one except her can set foot inside, especially men, who are absolutely forbidden from entering. So what makes you think you can beat me?"
Upon hearing Xiang Taiyan's words, many disciples who were unaware of this news immediately realized that it was the palace of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden...
This is recorded in the Qingyun Sect's scriptures, but many disciples simply haven't read them carefully...
Now that Xiang Taiyan has revealed all this, many disciples are reminded of the records in the sect's ancient texts...
The clothes Xiang Taiyan wore were made from fragments of clothing left behind by the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden during her battle, and they contained a trace of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden's aura...
This palace rejects everyone, but it will never reject the aura of its master…
Although Xiang Taiyan looked ridiculous in this outfit, it was indeed a good way to deceive the palace's defenses and slip through the gates to enter the palace...
Even if Xiang Taiyan can't stay in the palace for long, the moment he sets foot inside, he's already won...
In their view, Tuoba San had absolutely no chance of getting close to the palace, let alone setting foot inside...
How do you know I can't set foot in the palace?
Tuoba San calmly countered with a question…
Upon hearing Tuoba San's words, everyone was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, all mocking Tuoba San for overestimating himself and daring to set foot in the palace. They knew that anyone who had tried to force their way into the palace before had been eliminated by the palace's defenses...
"Haha... This is the funniest joke I've ever heard since I started cultivating. How could anyone say something so foolish..."
"Exactly! Competing against someone like that really lowers the IQ of the Qingyun Sect's geniuses..."
"Forget it, people from such small places haven't seen much of the world. They'll realize how foolish they were once they can't even get into the palace..."
"But once he gets close, he'll pay the price for his foolishness..."
Tuoba San took in everyone's words, but instead of getting angry, he calmly looked at them as if they were a bunch of idiots...
This greatly displeased the onlookers, but with the sect's patriarch present, they dared not act rashly. They could only glare angrily at Tuoba San, hoping to influence his mind...
"Tuoba San, did you hear that? Now you should realize how foolish and ignorant you've been, right? Admit defeat. Admitting defeat will at least save you some dignity, at least you won't lose all face..."
Xiang Tai continued to humiliate Tuoba San, but Tuoba San remained calm and composed, looking at him and speaking slowly and deliberately.
"You're the one who's utterly disgraced. You've lost completely, yet you still insist on making a desperate struggle, hoping to turn things around. That's wishful thinking; you're the epitome of a loser..."
Humiliated by Tuoba San like this, Xiang Tai almost lost his temper on the spot. He thought to himself, "How can these two be so alike? They deliberately rub salt in people's wounds..."
"Tuoba San, I'm giving you a way out, don't push your luck..."
Xiang Taiyan, forcing himself to add drama, said...
"Hmph! Only the weak need a way out, and they can't even seize the opportunities others offer. The strong always possess the determination and belief to win..."
As he spoke, he looked at Xiang Taiyan, as if to say, "I gave you a chance in the previous two matches, but you were the one who failed..."
This made Xiang Tai's face turn ugly, completely ruining his good mood...
"Hmph! Keep being stubborn. The moment I step onto the palace floor will be the moment you lose the contest. Then let's see what you have to say..."
Upon hearing Xiang Taiyan's words, the sycophantic disciples immediately became excited and began to mock Tuoba San...
"Hmph! If you can't do it, you can't do it. Is it so hard to admit you're bad?"
"Exactly, they're about to lose, but they still have this stubborn face. It's disgusting..."
"Young Master, charge!"
"Young Master is invincible, kill that bastard..."
Hearing these flattering words, Xiang Taiyan smiled with satisfaction. Seeing this, the disciples who were praising him worked even harder...
"Alright...we're all civilized people, let's not stoop to the level of people from such a small place..."
Those words were so offensive they made you want to slap him. Not only did he elevate his own and his disciples' status, but he also severely humiliated Tuoba San…
After he said that, everyone burst into laughter, and their gazes toward Tuoba San were filled with mockery and disdain, as if they were ashamed to be associated with him...
Tuoba San truly didn't understand where these people got the courage to be so arrogant...
"Tuoba San, tremble..."
With that, Xiang Taiyan took a step forward, striding towards the palace suspended in mid-air…
In just one step, he arrived at the palace gates, a place no one had been able to approach since the palace's arrival. This intensified the excitement in Xiang Tai's eyes, as it made him realize that this method was feasible…
