Chapter 2064 It’s just a matter of convenience.
“It’s okay, I believe they will achieve good results.” Shangguan Yang said indifferently, with an appearance of great trust in Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting.
When Shangguan Yang said this, no one dared to say anything or thought he was bragging, because Qingfeng's cultivation level was there, and even if he couldn't get the first place, there would still be no suspense about being in the top five.
As for Qinghe, they also saw that although his cultivation level did not seem to be high, his skills were quite good. With Qingfeng's assistance, it did not seem difficult for him to enter the top ten.
As for Wanqi Lin, if Qingfeng and Qinghe can take care of him, then he will have a chance to enter the top ten.
Here, Baili Zongxue was also in the fusion stage, so many people attacked her as well.
Here, there is no distinction between high and low status, only winning and losing, so those who attack Baili Zongxue are almost not afraid of her status.
Moreover, the four major families will fight openly and secretly, and none of them wants too many people from the other side to enter the second round, so they will target each other openly or secretly.
Although Baili Zongxue has allies, they will also be attacked, so he may not be able to take care of everything.
So, when rushing into the third martial arts stage, Baili Zongxue was hit by a spiritual power from a person with a high level of cultivation. Baili Zongxue was also hit and immediately fell off the stage.
Upon seeing this, Baili Zongxue's allies immediately came to rescue, but they encountered obstacles and were one step too late.
At the Baili family's location, this scene made everyone in the Baili family frown. Although they felt a little regretful, they did not react too much. After all, they never had any hope for Baili Zongxue, and letting her participate was just for experience.
It’s just a pity that I didn’t make it to the second round, because the second round is where I can really gain experience.
However, just when everyone thought that Baili Zongxue was about to be knocked off the stage, Gu Ning, who was not far away from Baili Zongxue, took action. He flashed to the edge of the martial arts stage and grabbed Baili Zongxue's hand at the critical moment.
This scene surprised many people. They didn't expect that she would actually save Baili Zongxue. Even Baili Zongxue didn't expect that the other party would save him.
Regarding Gu Ning's rescue of Baili Zongxue, some people admired him, some were unhappy, and some even mocked him.
What I admire are those who are not selfish. Although they may not rescue their opponents because of their positions, they will not despise others if they rescue them.
The ones who are unhappy are naturally those who want Baili Zongxue to lose.
The mockery was that Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue were not allies, but he rescued her. Should we say that Gu Ning had no sense of competition, or was too kind! In this situation, kindness is not tolerated, because you don’t know whether the person you saved will repay kindness with hatred! Baili Zongxue would not repay kindness with hatred, but someone took advantage of the time when Gu Ning was holding Baili Zongxue, thinking that her defense was the weakest, so he immediately attacked her.
This scene made many people secretly curse him for being shameless, but he did not break any rules, so there was nothing wrong with what he did.
However, just when that person was about to succeed, Gu Ning pulled Baili Zongxue back, and then attacked the person who attacked him. A stream of spiritual power attacked him, and added the spiritual energy of the ancient Phoenix Blood Jade, making the power stronger. The person was immediately blown off the stage and fell into the pool.
This scene surprised many people, because a cultivator in the Fusion Stage could actually emit such powerful spiritual power and knock down a cultivator in the early Heartbeat Stage...
Yes, the cultivator who was defeated by Gu Ning was in the early stage of the Heartbeat Stage, otherwise, she would not have used the spiritual energy of the ancient Phoenix Blood Jade to enhance her power.
Although there is only one level difference between the fusion stage and the heartbeat stage, the power between them is extremely different.
After seeing Baili Zongxue being rescued, everyone in the Baili family breathed a sigh of relief. They did not expect Baili Zongxue to win a place, but it was good enough that they could make it to the second round.
"Thank you," Baili Zongxue thanked Gu Ning.
"You're welcome." Gu Ning didn't take it to heart. It was Baili Zongxue. If it was anyone else, she naturally wouldn't help.
In front of the main hall
"Senior Shangguan, Qifeng would like to thank Senior Shangguan's disciple for helping my granddaughter." Baili Qifeng and Shangguan Yang expressed their gratitude. Although he should thank Gu Ning for this matter, he was unable to thank Gu Ning at this time. However, he knew that Baili Zongxue had already thanked Gu Ning.
But Baili Zongxue is his granddaughter, so it would be bad if he didn't express his opinion, so he thanked Shangguan Yang.
"Master Baili is too polite. It was just a matter of convenience." Shangguan Yang said indifferently. He didn't think it was a big deal because he knew the relationship between Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue. If it was a stranger, Gu Ning would not take action.
"Brother Shangguan, is your female disciple really a cultivator in the fusion stage?" Shi Xiaoyang couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Yes!" Shangguan Yang stroked his beard and said proudly, "Although my female disciple's cultivation is not high, her strength is not weak. Her explosive power is very strong, not inferior to that of the Heartbeat Stage."
Shangguan Yang didn't mind revealing some of it, but he still kept it to himself. Not only did Gu Ning not have to be in the Heart-beating Stage, even if he was in the Golden Core Stage, he might not be her opponent, because she had the ancient Phoenix Blood Jade, which could increase the power of her spiritual energy many times!
Hearing this, everyone else couldn't help but sigh. A cultivator in the Fusion Stage was actually no worse than one in the Heartbeat Stage... They had no doubts about this now, because they could also see that this girl's ability was indeed much higher than that of a cultivator in the Fusion Stage. She could also burst out powerful spiritual power and knock a cultivator in the Heartbeat Stage away in one fell swoop.
The battle here was still going on. After rescuing Baili Zongxue, Gu Ning cleared obstacles for her from time to time. Wanqi Lin also had Leng Shaoting's help, so they quickly reached the destination and got their license plates, so they could take a break temporarily.
After all sixty number plates were taken, there were still a dozen people standing on the martial arts stage who had not grabbed a number plate, so these dozen people could only grab the plates from others.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting protected Wanqi Lin and Baili Zongxue behind them, and they were also protected by Baili Zongxue's allies, so those who originally wanted to attack them naturally could not do so.
Then they also realized that Shaoting had a high level of cultivation, and that Gu Ning was even more powerful than he looked, so they deliberately avoided those with high levels of cultivation and attacked those with low levels of cultivation.
Some people managed to grab it, some people didn’t, and then were beaten out of the arena.
After all the cultivators without number plates were knocked off the stage, the first round of competition was over.
