Ling Hao's victory over Ling Mu avenged his previous defeat and caused quite a stir within the Ling family, as well as being a minor spectacle for other factions.
Ling Hao returned to his seat, Ling Yuwei was beaming with joy, and Ling Yunfei gave him a thumbs up.
He bowed deeply to Qin Feng and said, "Thank you, Brother Feng, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to beat him today."
Qin Feng waved his hand, "Cultivation ultimately depends on oneself. I was just saying it casually; I didn't really help."
Ling Hao shook his head. "No, your words were like a wake-up call for me, giving me direction in the fog."
Qin Feng smiled and said, "Work hard, there's still a long way to go, take it slow."
Ling Hao's outstanding performance just now is still attracting a lot of attention. Many people are surprised to see Ling Hao's attitude towards Qin Feng.
"Do you guys remember what Ling Hao said before? Ling Mu asked him what made him so confident, and he said it was because of the person in front of him. Could that be true?"
"No way, who is this person? He looks very young. How powerful could he be, let alone make Ling Hao improve so quickly?"
"Could it be that Ling Hao said that on purpose to spite Ling Mu?"
"Hmm, that possibility can't be ruled out."
"If not, then tell me, how did Ling Hao suddenly become so strong, and even comprehend sword intent?"
"Who knows!"
Ling Mu, who was involved in the incident, also noticed Ling Hao's actions. He was puzzled and carefully observed Ling Hao's behavior, feeling that the other party did not seem to be faking it.
He looked Qin Feng over carefully again, but found nothing unusual about him.
However, Ling Hao's attitude towards Qin Feng still drew a lot of attention to Qin Feng, including Ling Yunfei, Ling Yunbo, and Lin Lie and Lin Xu from the Burning Heaven Sect.
They kept looking Qin Feng up and down, but found nothing more than that he was young and handsome.
Despite the stares of these people, Qin Feng remained calm and composed.
Ling Yunbo announced that the competition would continue, drawing everyone's attention back to the competition.
"Now let's move on to the group of 18 to 25 years old. Number 1 versus number 45, number 2 versus number 44..."
Ling Yunbo announced ten groups, and the cultivation levels of these twenty people varied quite a bit; some were only at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, while others had already reached the Nascent Soul realm.
This is incomparable; not everyone has the ability to fight against opponents of a higher level. In this situation, they can only admit defeat.
Ling Yuwei encountered such a situation; she won the first round without a fight.
Her subsequent battles went very smoothly, and she advanced to the final round with minimal effort.
Ling Yuwei's performance has always been good, and such excellent results are not considered unusual by the Ling family.
This time, her opponent is Ling Yaoyao, a beautiful woman who is very popular in the Ling family and is also considered a strong contender for the championship.
"Ling Yuwei's time is over. She is probably no match for Ling Yaoyao, but it's not bad."
“I agree with your opinion. Ling Yaoyao is already in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Whether in terms of cultivation or experience, Ling Yuwei is no match for her.”
On the battle platform.
Ling Yuwei and Ling Yaoyao stood facing each other.
Ling Yaoyao looked at Ling Yuwei and said naturally, "Yuwei, long time no see. I can't let you win this time. I want this championship."
She wasn't asking for anyone's consent when she said that; she was issuing a notification, and what she said was the truth.
Ling Yuwei said calmly, "Sister Yaoyao, I'm afraid it won't be as you wish. I also want the championship this time."
A look of surprise flashed in Ling Yaoyao's eyes.
"Oh, it seems you're very confident. Could it be that you've made great progress recently? If you were still at the same pace, you would know very well that you're no match for me."
Ling Yuwei nodded and glanced at Qin Feng below the platform. "Not bad, I met a benefactor and was fortunate enough to receive his guidance."
Ling Yaoyao followed her gaze and saw Qin Feng, which puzzled her even more.
"Is this the benefactor you're talking about? He doesn't seem particularly special. But since Ling Hao said so, and you said so too, it's made me quite interested in him. I'm actually starting to look forward to this competition."
Everyone present heard what the two said on stage, once again drawing everyone's attention to Qin Feng.
Previously, Ling Hao said that he became stronger with Qin Feng's help, which made everyone a little skeptical.
Ling Yuwei is saying the same thing now, and she even directly states that Qin Feng is her benefactor.
The Ling family knows Ling Yuwei quite well, so her words carry a lot of weight.
This made everyone, whether from the Ling family or other factions, curiously examine Qin Feng.
Ling Yunfei hadn't expected that the young man he'd only met briefly a month ago would receive such high praise from his son and daughter.
Ling Yunbo looked at Qin Feng with suspicion and uncertainty. Was his mine lost to this person?
Qin Feng appeared calm, but inwardly he felt somewhat helpless; how had he suddenly become the protagonist?
On the battle platform.
Ling Yunbo shouted, "Start!"
Strangely, everyone noticed that neither Ling Yuwei nor Ling Yaoyao made a move; they simply watched each other quietly.
This is completely opposite to the battle between Ling Hao and Ling Mu.
Ling Yaoyao couldn't help but ask, "Why aren't you making a move?"
Ling Yuwei said calmly, "I'm waiting for you. If I make a move, you might not have another chance."
Ling Yaoyao looked at her with surprise, "It seems you are very confident. I am really curious, what level are you at now to say such arrogant things?"
Ling Yuwei said calmly, "You'll know once you try."
What Ling Yuwei and Ling Hao didn't know was that after so many days of guidance from Qin Feng, their progress was rapid, but their style was also influenced by Qin Feng.
That's the nonchalant, indifferent attitude they have.
Ling Yaoyao stopped speaking, her graceful figure swaying, the spirit sword in her hand constantly flickering with cold light like a serpent.
Ling Yuwei remained calm and composed, wielding her spirit sword with ease, her sword techniques flowing effortlessly, making the situation easy to handle.
Don't be fooled by the fact that it's two girls competing; the intensity is no less than that. The sword energy sweeping around and the afterimages of sword light they create constantly testify to the ferocity of this battle.
Seeing that all her moves had been neutralized so easily, Ling Yaoyao no longer underestimated Ling Yuwei.
The spirit sword in her hand trembled as she infused it with sword intent.
Yes, as an outstanding member of the Ling family, she not only reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage at a young age, but also comprehended sword intent.
The moment Ling Yaoyao unleashed her sword intent, Ling Yunfei knew he was in trouble. As someone with experience, he knew all too well the destructive power of such a thing.
Others thought the same way; when their skill levels were similar, sword intent was the best trump card.
To Ling Yunfei's surprise, he didn't see panic on Ling Yuwei's face, but rather a smile.
Ling Yuwei's tightly gripped spirit sword let out a soft hum, like a dragon emerging from the abyss, baring its fangs.
She neither dodged nor avoided, but instead thrust her sword at Ling Yaoyao.
