It can be said that the moment Xue Shu defeated Liu Chong, the goal of establishing authority today was achieved!
Although Liu Chong's defeat was deserved, people will only remember the victors.
Moreover, he was a winner of a challenge that put him in a higher level.
This effect far exceeded Fairy Lanxin's expectations.
Defeating Liu Chong would be far more effective than Xue Shu defeating several immortals of the same level.
Although Xue Shu's victory was somewhat opportunistic, without real strength, no matter how many tricks she used, she would never be able to defeat a powerful expert at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
The fact that Xue Shu was able to unleash such strong combat power is enough to prove that Xue Shu has a solid foundation. So even if the words of the Fengtian Sect Master are spread today, the rumors will be dispelled on their own.
The words of the Fengtian Sect Master would be laughed at.
The Sect Master of Fengtian Sect naturally understood this principle, which is why his expression was quite unpleasant at that moment.
Compared to his master's unpleasant expression, Qi Huang seemed much more relaxed.
When Xue Shu faced the crisis, Qi Huang was even about to rush up to protect her. Now, not only has Xue Shu escaped danger and won the victory, but she has also beaten that lecherous man half to death. This gives the usually indifferent Qi Huang an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
But Mu Bai's mind started to wander.
Xue Shu waited quietly on the arena. Although she had already expressed her willingness to continue accepting challenges, a quarter of an hour had passed and no one had stepped forward. Xue Shu naturally assumed that today's battle should be over.
Xue Shu doesn't like fighting. The reason she trains so hard is only to improve her strength as soon as possible so that she can reunite with Ao Huang.
Xue Shu was naturally happy to be able to avoid fighting.
Everyone understood that even Liu Chong's perfected Great Luo Golden Immortal level strength had been defeated by Xue Shu.
Those below the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm would only be asking for trouble if they went up to challenge, while a powerful Great Luo Golden Immortal would not go up to humiliate themselves.
Just when everyone thought the matter was about to be settled, someone leaped onto the ring.
"Miss Xue Shu, my name is Mu Bai, and I would like to discuss immortal arts with you!"
Mu Bai actually went up to the arena to challenge Xue Shu.
This was unexpected by everyone, even Qi Huang, who had been by Mu Bai's side the whole time, had a moment of surprise.
Although Mu Bai was also at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, no one dared to say that Mu Bai's victory was unfair.
Mu Bai's strength is undeniable in the Gan Domain. Although he is slightly inferior to Qi Huang, he is still the undisputed second.
The reason why Mu Bai challenged Xue Shu is self-evident: to get closer to Xue Shu!
A bitter feeling began to rise in everyone's hearts. Liu Chong's challenge to Xue Shu was like a toad trying to eat swan meat.
But Mu Bai is different; he truly has the ability and the right to pursue Xue Shu.
While everyone else addressed Xue Shu as the Holy Maiden, only Mu Bai called her "Miss Xue Shu" repeatedly. What he was really thinking was obvious!
"Mu Bai! What are you doing?"
The cave master of the Refining Heart Cave, who was sitting in the main seat, stood up and reprimanded Mu Bai.
Mu Bai bowed to his master and said:
"Master, don't worry. I was just discussing immortal techniques with Miss Xue Shu. It's not a challenge."
The Cave Master of the Refining Heart Cave stopped talking. Mu Bai had already jumped onto the arena, so there was no point in saying anything more. However, if Mu Bai could really win Xue Shu's heart, the Cave Master of the Refining Heart Cave would be happy to see it.
Qi Huang's gaze toward Mu Bai turned hostile; he never expected Mu Bai to do something so despicable.
However, after thinking about it again, Qi Huang felt that this was indeed a great opportunity to get close to Xue Shu, but he just didn't seize it!
Qi Huang even began to regret not jumping onto the ring first.
Xue Shu was also somewhat surprised. Lan Xin Fairy had introduced them earlier, and Xue Shu remembered Mu Bai. However, faced with Mu Bai's challenge, Xue Shu couldn't refuse, so she could only bite the bullet and say:
"Then I'll have to trouble Young Master Mu Bai to give me some pointers!"
Mu Bai smiled, revealing what he considered a perfect expression, and said to Xue Shu:
"Miss Xue Shu, you're too kind. I can tell you've only been cultivating for a short time, but your strength is already outstanding. It's just a pity that you lack combat experience, which is why I was itching to show off my skills. I hope you won't take offense."
Xue Shu shook her head, her face expressionless, and said:
"It's alright. This arena was set up by Master, and Master has said that he will accept challenges from any talented young man. Since Young Master Mu Bai is so generous in giving me his guidance, Xue Shu will naturally have no other thoughts."
Mu Bai was clearly taken aback by Xue Shu's lukewarm response.
According to Mu Bai's opinion, given his identity, his fight with Xue Shu was not about winning or losing.
After demonstrating his formidable combat prowess, he could then offer Xue Shu some guidance, which would surely win her favor.
After all, what cultivator doesn't like a strong person? Especially one who can make them stronger.
But Xue Shu seemed unmoved by his expression. Could it be that he had done something wrong?
Mu Bai was lost in thought, while Xue Shu was getting impatient. Knowing that she was no match for Mu Bai, Xue Shu had originally planned to exchange a couple of blows and then admit defeat!
After all, Mu Bai had been famous for a long time, was two minor levels higher than him, and was also the Holy Son of the Refining Heart Cave. Even if he admitted defeat, no one would laugh at him.
However, Mu Bai hesitated to make a move, so Xue Shu had to say it again:
"Young Master Mu Bai, please make your move."
Mu Bai smiled and waved his hand, then said:
"Miss Xue Shu, please make the first move. As your elder brother, it is not my place to do so."
Xue Shu was very annoyed by Mu Bai's overly familiar attitude.
However, since Mu Bai is unwilling to make a move, I have no choice but to take the initiative.
Xue Shu summoned her Law Domain again, her hands moving in a series of hand seals, while Mu Bai stood with his hands behind his back, showing no intention of blocking her, and didn't even open his own Law Domain.
"Celestial Technique: Heavenly Snow Illusion!"
Seeing that Mu Bai had no intention of making a move, Xue Shu didn't want to waste any more time, so she directly used her innate divine power to attack Mu Bai.
The blizzard swept towards Mu Bai in an instant, but Mu Bai neither dodged nor avoided it. With a light tap of his finger, he blocked the Snow Illusion that had tormented Liu Chong to the point of near death in front of him.
Even the Heavenly Snow Illusion's attack on divine sense was shattered by Mu Bai's single thought!
Xue Shu was slightly taken aback. Although she knew Mu Bai was powerful, she didn't expect him to be this powerful.
His strongest attack was blocked by Mu Bai with a single finger, without even using his immortal spiritual power!
