It was just that if she missed such a grand event, he, as her master, would feel it was a pity. Everything depended on whether she could catch up!
Although many disciples came to watch, only a few actually participated in the competition. They were all core disciples of the main hall, both past and present. The reason for having so many disciples watching was simply to encourage their efforts.
Time was running out before the Zhuding Peak Competition. They were selecting the strongest disciples, so naturally, they wouldn't waste time on other matters. Today, they were going to finalize the quota. In three days, everyone would depart for the Zhuding Peak Competition!
After looking around, Qing Ling found that An Ran, An Yu, Jun Zichen and Xu Errong had not come, and his brows couldn't help but frowned.
How could the four of them not show up for such an important event today? It would be fine if they didn't have the qualifications to participate, but they clearly had a role in today's competition!
Thinking of this, Qing Ling did not stay here any longer, but quickly ran towards where An Ran and the other three lived.
"Knock knock knock"
There was a rapid knock on the door.
An Yu immediately turned his head to look outside the door and asked, "Who is outside?" He couldn't let others know that An Ran, who was in seclusion, was missing. The secret of the Nine Revolutions Space must not be known to others.
"It's me, Qing Ling."
An Yu felt relieved when he found out it was Qing Ling. Although Qing Ling didn't know a lot of things these days, he knew that Qing Ling was not a bad person and had no ill will towards them.
Thinking of this, An Yu walked out and quickly closed the door: "Why are you here?"
"I should be the one asking you why you are still here. Today is the day of the competition. Aren't you and Junior Sister An Ran, Junior Brother Zi Chen, and Junior Brother Xu Errong participating in the competition? If you don't dare to go in, it will be too late. The Palace Master said that if you don't show up on time, it will be regarded as a forfeit!" Qing Ling said hurriedly.
Hearing this, An Yu's face showed helplessness. "I know, but An Ran is still in seclusion. We can't disturb her at this critical moment, otherwise she might go crazy. Xu Errong and Jun Zichen are also waiting for An Ran. There's no way for the four of us to go over."
"Ah?" Qing Ling's voice rose a little: "What should we do now?"
"There's no other way. All we can do now is wait for An Ran to exit her cultivation state."
"If Junior Sister An Ran hadn't come out of seclusion, wouldn't you three have participated?" Qing Ling asked again. This time, all four of them were going to participate in the competition.
It’s a pity that he didn’t have the chance and could only wait ten years. But by then he didn’t know what everything would be like.
An Yu nodded and said, "The four of us are going together. If she can't go, there's no point for me to go. Are there many people participating in the competition this time? How long do you think it will take for it to be our turn?"
"It's not that much. I estimate that it will be your turn in an hour at most. Junior Sister An Ran's retreat this time is really long, sigh."
"There's nothing we can do. If we miss it, we can just consider it as not destined to be." An Yu was very open-minded. The four of them didn't have any idea about becoming famous in the continent. They just hoped to get rid of their enemies and live a peaceful life. Now that the four of them were here, it really didn't make much difference whether it was earlier or later.
Qing Ling glanced at An Yu, a hint of emotion in his eyes. He hadn't expected that An Yu and the other two would give up such a great opportunity just because An Ran wasn't participating. This kind of emotion was truly incomprehensible. At least he hadn't seen it in anyone else. How many people could resist such a great opportunity?
"Junior Brother An Yu, then you wait here for Junior Sister An Ran. I'll go over and take a look first. If there's any news, I'll come and inform you. How about that?" Qing Ling suggested.
An Yu nodded: "Go ahead. If An Ran can come out of confinement, we will definitely rush over as quickly as possible!"
Qing Ling quickly left after responding, feeling a deep sense of regret. With only an hour left, the likelihood of Junior Sister An Ran emerging from seclusion was incredibly slim. How much regret would one experience if such an opportunity were missed? It could only be said that Junior Sister An Ran's seclusion was unfortunate at this time.
After Qing Ling left, An Yu returned to the house. Looking at the Nine Revolutions Exquisite Ring, which still showed no reaction, he was filled with anxiety: "What should I do? Ranran, come out quickly!"
…
Arena.
This was definitely the most exciting competition anyone had seen in the past few years. They had never known the Main Hall disciples could be so formidable! Each move was more powerful than the last, a trump card they had never displayed in a season competition before.
Only then did they clearly realize the gap in strength between themselves and the disciples of the main hall. Although they did not have the opportunity to compete on stage, after seeing these things, they also understood that even if they went on stage, there would be no possibility of winning.
Qing Ling's gaze remained fixed on the outside. What on earth had happened to Junior Sister An Ran? Why hadn't she arrived yet? Could it be that she wasn't planning on participating in this Zhuding Peak Competition?
In this exciting state, time slipped by unnoticed. Almost no one paid attention to the time, except for a few people who were concerned about An Ran and the other three and looked outside, wondering why they hadn't appeared yet.
"The next match is between An Ran and Xiao Lei'er!"
Qing Ling's heart tightened. It was actually Junior Sister An Ran's turn, but she hadn't shown up yet. She was afraid that she couldn't come today.
Even though he had been prepared for this, he still felt deeply sorry when it actually happened. He couldn't bear to see it. He could imagine how much regret Sister An Ran would feel when she came out of seclusion and learned the news.
Ning Zhiyuan looked at Qing Ling beside him and asked, "An Ran, An Yu, Jun Zichen, and Xu Errong, the other four haven't arrived yet?"
"Yeah, it hasn't come yet. I don't know what happened."
Xiao Lei'er was already standing on the arena at this time. She was a beauty in her blue dress, but her brows were furrowed. Why hadn't her opponent An Randao appeared yet?
Although she knew that An Ran was very powerful before, and a moment of complexity flashed through her mind when she found out that her opponent was An Ran, she had never expected that she would not show up.
"An Ran versus Xiao Lei'er!"
The deacon spoke again, but An Ran still didn't show up. Even he began to wonder, could it be that someone would really give up such an opportunity because of the danger? (To be continued.)
