V Live's top streamer declared passionately: "Huang Sicong's decision to withdraw is unexpected, but it's also understandable. Now let's see who the next challenger is."
"Ah! It's actually our special forces king, Jiang Qinian! Our Nanxing Guild leader better watch out!"
The number one guy's voice was so loud it was split, and the cheers from the audience were getting louder and louder.
Jiang Qinian, dressed in a black combat uniform, had a buzz cut that accentuated his sharp features and refined face. He stood on the ring, waving arrogantly to the audience below, a confident smile on his face.
Then, he turned his gaze to Jiang Nanxing and said with a grin, "President, I won't let you have her!"
Jiang Nanxing's lips curled slightly upwards. He extended a finger and beckoned lightly, saying provocatively to Jiang Qinian, "Come on! Bring it on!"
Without another word, Jiang Qinian waved her hands, and two blazing fireballs, carrying intense heat, hurtled straight at Jiang Nanxing.
In an instant, the spectators nearby felt a wave of heat wash over them, and the surrounding temperature soared to an astonishing level. They gasped in surprise, and some even involuntarily stepped back to avoid being caught in the flames.
Jiang Nanxing possessed a unique ability to control flames. He dodged Jiang Qinian's attack with a sidestep. Then, he raised his hand, and a fire dragon roared out from his hand, rushing towards Jiang Qinian with a scorching aura.
This was a fierce battle of fire against fire, with fire dragons and flames intertwining, emitting dazzling light and deafening roars. The entire arena seemed to be set ablaze, shaking violently.
The audience watched the fierce battle with bated breath, their eyes fixed on Jiang Nanxing, hoping he could defeat Jiang Qinian and defend his place in the arena. However, after a fierce struggle, Jiang Nanxing was ultimately defeated due to exhaustion of his spiritual energy.
"It is a pity that President Nanxing failed to defend his title due to the depletion of his spiritual power. Let us look forward to the performance of the next contestant..." The voice of the number one contestant echoed in the square.
The audience applauded, expressing their appreciation for the two contestants' outstanding performances. Although Jiang Nanxing failed to defend his title, his demonstrated strength was admirable.
…
Soon, Jiang Qinian was swept off the stage by Yuanbao's sword energy. Yuanbao successfully defended the stage for 6 rounds and finally voluntarily gave the stage to Jiang Beixing.
The final championship battle came down to Jiang Beixing and Mo Yan, and everyone watched the match with bated breath.
The excited voice of the top student echoed across the square: "Mo Yan, Heavenly Spiritual Root, Mid-stage Qi Refining, champion of the literary examination! And on the other side is our highly anticipated Teacher Bei Xing, Wood Spiritual Root, Late-stage Qi Refining. So, who will become the ultimate champion of this competition? Let's wait and see!"
The audience was thrilled and discussed the two contestants' skills and performances.
Some believe that Mo Yan, with his innate spiritual root, has an advantage in cultivation speed; while others firmly believe that Jiang Beixing, as a teacher, has more combat experience and skills and may be able to win.
"Xiao Wan, who do you think will win the championship?" Qin Ze asked curiously.
Jiang Wanwan shook her head, indicating that it was difficult to guess, since one had good talent and the other had higher cultivation.
Jiang Beixing and Mo Yan stood on the stage, looking at each other with eyes filled with a burning desire for the championship. They both knew that this competition would determine who the true champion was.
With the referee's whistle, the match officially began.
Mo Yan, sword in hand and eyes resolute, took the lead in attacking Jiang Beixing with a sword strike that resembled a rainbow.
Jiang Beixing moved nimbly, skillfully dodging Mo Yan's attacks. He used the Azure Wood Technique to gather the surrounding spiritual energy into the wooden sword in his hand, and then launched a counterattack.
The two exchanged blows, neither giving an inch, and for a time it was difficult to determine a winner.
"Boom!" Jiang Beixing activated the wind formation again, and leaves attacked Mo Yan with fierce force.
Mo Yan's eyes narrowed, and after regaining his balance, he quickly adjusted his stance and swung his sword to block. After a series of cracking sounds, Mo Yan was still injured, with bloody marks that were shocking to behold.
Jiang Beixing's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He secretly rejoiced that he still had energy left after unleashing his ultimate move.
Mo Yan was somewhat surprised by Jiang Beixing's condition, but he did not want to give up easily, so he launched an even more intense attack despite his injuries.
Jiang Beixing dodged Mo Yan's attack by sidestepping, and at the same time, she swung her wooden sword, sending a green sword light hurtling towards Mo Yan.
Upon seeing this, Mo Yan immediately exerted all his strength to try and block the attack.
However, due to his previous injuries, his movements were slightly slower, and the sword light passed right through his defenses and struck his shoulder.
Mo Yan groaned and staggered back a few steps.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jiang Beixing lunged forward and thrust out several swords in succession, forcing Mo Yan to retreat repeatedly.
Just as defeat seemed imminent, Mo Yan suddenly bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of blood, which instantly boosted his morale.
He swung his sword, which clashed with Jiang Beixing's wooden sword, producing a crisp clanging sound.
Both sides retreated a few steps, and both appeared somewhat tired.
At this moment, the atmosphere on the field was extremely tense, and the audience held their breath, waiting for the final result.
Jiang Beixing took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and prepared to launch the final attack.
He concentrated all his spiritual power into the wooden sword, and the sword emitted a dazzling light.
Mo Yan gritted his teeth and, disregarding his injuries, did his best to resist Jiang Beixing's attacks.
In the end, after a fierce battle, Mo Yan defeated Jiang Beixing by a narrow margin and won the championship of this martial arts test.
"The last one standing was Mo Yan! This match was truly spectacular, vividly demonstrating what it means to fight to the very last moment. Let's thank both contestants for bringing us such a visual feast. Congratulations to our champion in both the literary and martial arts competition, Mo Yan."
Mo Yan stood on the arena, watching the cheers below and the admiration in the eyes of the sect leader on the high platform, and then fainted with peace of mind.
...
The sect competition has come to a successful conclusion. Given the serious injuries sustained by Mo Yan and Jiang Beixing, the closing ceremony will be held the following day.
Jiang Wanwan had just finished settling her guests and returned to her Cloud Mist Pavilion when she saw Yan Ziyan rushing over. She couldn't help but wonder what he wanted to see her about in such a hurry.
"Wanwan, I just received a report from the police that someone is selling fake pills and fake cultivation techniques under your name!" Yan Ziyan said anxiously.
Upon hearing this news, Jiang Wanwan was startled.
She knew that her pills and cultivation techniques were meticulously refined and researched, and there was absolutely no way they were counterfeit.
Moreover, these items are crucial for cultivators. Buying counterfeit goods would not only waste money but could also hinder their cultivation progress or even endanger their lives. Thinking of this, Jiang Wanwan felt a surge of anger.
