After exchanging greetings, Liang Yinzhu launched the first attack, her sword tip aimed directly at Xue Lan's beautiful face.
Instead of retreating, Xue Lan advanced, her footwork shifting rapidly. In a flash, she appeared behind Liang Yinzhu, gently tapping her back with her fan. Liang Yinzhu was sent flying off the stage.
The audience was stunned. Was it over in just this one round?
In these kinds of matches, people usually consider the feelings of their fellow disciples, and the two sides will test each other for hundreds of rounds before seriously deciding the winner, so that the loss won't be too embarrassing. But to think that the winner would be decided in one move is rare, it even stunned the referee. Is there something wrong with this blue arena?
Why do they all end so quickly?
The last round took fifteen minutes, but this round only took a blink of an eye. The competition had only just begun, and I had already completed my morning tasks. I can even go have a pot of tea now.
Helpless, A-Jiang followed Qingyue and Qingming to other arenas. She secretly listened to their conversation and learned a lot of gossip about the sects.
On the purple arena, Xue Ming from Qingyuan Peak faced off against Mu Chengmin from Lingxia Peak. Both of them were cultivators of both immortal and martial arts, so their immortal and martial arts techniques flew together on the arena, dazzling the audience.
Xue Ming was much more low-key. His ordinary mid-level disciple robes accentuated his handsome features, making him look very refined. In his right hand, he held a celestial sword that emitted a bright yellow light.
There aren't many spells that can be formed with one hand, but Xue Ming clearly used them very well. When the two were far apart, he kept casting small spells to interfere with the other's hand seals.
Upon approaching, a celestial sword danced with incredible skill, leaving no gaps. Mu Chengmin on the other side was also quite formidable, but unfortunately, he encountered Xue Ming and could only stop in the first round of the competition.
A-Jiang, who was engrossed in watching, was suddenly pushed and took a step back.
I felt like I stepped on something, and I stumbled and fell into someone's arms.
The man's hands were on her arms, and her back was pressed against his chest. At such close range, she could even smell his faint fragrance, as if she had smelled it somewhere before.
Looking up at the other person, he was very tall, only reaching his shoulder. His skin was very fair, but his features were just ordinary. The only special thing about him was his eyes, which seemed to be filled with starlight.
Ajiang developed some small goosebumps on his skin.
"This person is dangerous, stay away!"
Alarm bells rang in Ah Jiang's mind, and he quickly ran away, disappearing into the crowd.
The man she bumped into looked in the direction she left, touched his face, and realized it was the first time a woman had ever run away from him.
His disguise was successful, but having grown accustomed to being followed by eager gazes, this kind of treatment felt strangely disheartening.
After being jostled around in the crowd, Ah Jiang eventually lost interest and returned to his courtyard, where he spent most of the day staring blankly at the blue sky and white clouds.
It's only the preliminary round, there's more to watch tomorrow.
The 24 people were divided into 12 groups, with one round in the morning and one in the afternoon. The twelve winners were divided into six groups for the final competition on the third day. The six final winners and the champion selected from the sub-stages received a certain amount of reward.
After the second day of competition among the 12 groups, Tian Yufeng and Qing Yuanfeng each had the most remaining members, while Chu Yufeng and Fei Hongfeng each had the fewest remaining members, with only one person each.
Once the match order was announced the next day, everyone knew there would be more gossip to talk about.
In the morning's three matches, Tianyu Peak's Ling You will face off against Huiyun Peak's Xiang Lin.
Tianyu Peak's Mu Qingyan versus Qingyuan Peak's Xue Lan
Ling Xiafeng and Zhao Shuangshuang face off against Ling Xiafeng and Qin Fengcheng.
In the afternoon, there will be three matches: Qing Yuanfeng's Xue Ming versus Hui Yunfeng's Tang Zhan.
Chu Yufeng's Qin Weiyu will face off against Tian Yufeng's Han Zixin.
Qingqiong, a disciple of Feihong Peak, fights against Li Jia, a disciple of Chuyu Peak.
The battle between Mu Qingyan and Xue Lan was not only a contest of martial arts prowess, but also a contest of appearances where the two were evenly matched.
Listening to his disciple's gossip, A-Jiang learned that the two of them had fallen in love with the same person. This battle is going to be quite a spectacle!
Qingqiong, who was the most likely to win at Feihong Peak, was actually facing off against Ling Youze. How could they defeat that once-in-a-millennium genius?
The elders all looked equally worried upon seeing this result.
