Chapter 61: He was too eager to put on an act.
"Please be quiet, everyone!"
Feng Shen leaped onto the massive arena platform and announced in a booming voice, "The draw results for the Rookie Group Individual Arena Tournament are as follows—"
Group A: Tianfeng Sect vs. Huanhua Sect; Zhan Sect vs. Huanyin Sect.
Group B: Peach Blossom Valley vs. Beast Taming Sect; Ten Thousand Swords Sect vs. Thousand Medicine Island.
"The winners of Groups A and B will compete for the final championship. Now, please welcome the Tianfeng Sect and Huanhua Sect from Group A to the stage for their duel!"
"Go, junior sister!" Yang Shen said with a smile.
"Don't worry, it'll be a piece of cake." After saying that, Bai Ruoqian glanced at the Huanhua Sect, only to see that the people there had bitter expressions on their faces. "This is just too unlucky!"
They originally thought that if they were lucky in the draw, they might be matched against Thousand Medicine Island or Peach Blossom Valley, after all, they were just alchemists. They never expected to be matched against the Heavenly Wind Sect right away...
Amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the crowd, Bai Ruoqian stood confidently on the arena, gripping her sword tightly with some excitement. This time, she was determined to make a name for herself!
The male cultivator from the Huanhua Sect clasped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai, I am—"
"Forget it! Let's fight!"
Yes, she couldn't wait.
A surge of spiritual energy coursed around her, and the sword in front of her suddenly flew up, transforming into several golden sword beams behind her. With a loud shout, she cried out, "Chaotic Blade Wind Annihilation!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a dazzling sword light shot towards the Huanhua Sect disciple. The Huanhua Sect disciple's pupils trembled slightly. He did not expect her to use a powerful sword formation right away. Caught off guard, he quickly summoned a shield magic weapon.
However, such a powerful sword formation could not be withstood by a mid-grade shield. The male cultivator let out a muffled groan as he and his shield were thrown off the stage by the sword formation.
This scene lasted only a few breaths, and by the time the spectators reacted, they erupted in excited cheers.
"Holy crap, am I seeing things? One-hit kill? That's an instant kill!"
"Yeah, it was an absolutely crushing victory!"
"I never expected that she would have such cultivation at such a young age. She truly deserves to be a key disciple cultivated by the Tianfeng Sect."
...
Bai Ruoqian's face was full of smugness. She had been holding back for so long, and now she could finally vent her anger!
At this moment, the host, Feng Shen, jumped onto the stage, frowning as he looked at her with a complicated expression. "Uh... I haven't even said the competition has started yet! What's the rush, kid?"
Bai Ruoqian: "..."
"Pfft, hahahaha—!" The people in Peach Blossom Valley burst into laughter, their unrestrained manner showing no restraint. The surrounding cultivators couldn't help but laugh as well.
Bai Ruoqian glared at them, her face grim. Suddenly, she felt extremely embarrassed standing on the stage. She gritted her teeth and said, "Then let's start over!"
Feng Shen looked at the Huanhua Sect disciples below the arena and asked, "Do we need to have another match?" In fact, he knew in his heart that with the strength Bai Ruoqian had just displayed, even if they fought normally, the result would not change anything.
"No need... I admit defeat," said the disciple of Huanhua Sect, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth as he withdrew.
"Alright, then I declare Tianfengpai the winner of this competition!"
Bai Ruoqian was filled with resentment. She had originally planned to amaze everyone, but the embarrassing incident had completely changed the atmosphere!
It seems that her victory was flawed?
Her meteoric rise to fame... turned into a laughing stock for everyone?
Damn it!
What are all these things?!
Bai Ruoqian felt like she was going crazy. Her ears were ringing. She felt so angry and wanted to kill people who were mocking her.
"Calm down!" the voice of the Soul Guide suddenly said, "The cultivation technique you are currently practicing forbids anger, otherwise you will suffer a qi deviation!"
"I see!"
Su Yuyuan looked at Bai Ruoqian and smiled, "Junior Sister, you're really amazing!"
"You don't need to tell me that!"
Bai Ruoqian seemed to have found a scapegoat. Su Yuyuan was stunned for a few seconds, then sighed, "Don't pay attention to those people... As long as we win, that's all that matters."
"Let's watch the match!" Bai Ruoqian really didn't want to talk to him at this moment, so she could only pretend to be nonchalant and look up at the arena match.
At this moment, in the second match of Group A, Zhanzong faced off against Huanyinmen, which everyone saw as a battle between beauty and the beast.
Shi Li of the Zhan Sect was a body cultivator with a frighteningly muscular physique, while the disciples of the Huan Yin Sect were delicate young ladies. This scene made everyone smile.
How do I play this?
"Shi Li! Keep it up!" Ye Luo waved to him.
"Such a beautiful girl... I feel a little hesitant to make a move?"
"If you bring the same ferocity you showed when you beat that female cultivator in the secret realm, this match will be a piece of cake!"
Shi Li: "..."
Everyone: "…………"
