Ning Zongyi was filled with indignation, his face showing anger and worry. Ning Xi's strength was indeed good, but Shangguan Xi and Nangong Yu, as the senior brother and the third senior sister respectively, were naturally strong as well, needless to say. On the contrary, Ning Xi needed to worry about his own safety.
"What's the rush? The results aren't even out yet. Does Sect Master Ning think your eldest disciple is so useless that he can't even beat two people?" Sect Master Yan stopped the two from continuing their banter. He wanted to see who the winner would be this time.
"Besides, when did the rules ever say that other disciples can't destroy their waist tokens? This is just a competition, why are you so nervous? If it gets destroyed, just go back and cultivate for a few more years and come back, it's no big deal!" Sect Master Zhan, who loved watching the show, added fuel to the fire, saying that he was fearless and confident. He was sure that the person behind this wanted to curry favor with his Wanzhang Sect, otherwise what Zhan Qi had just done would have been enough to eliminate him.
Sect Leader Ning didn't know why he had put himself in this position, and everyone was attacking him and kicking him when he was down.
...
The argument raged outside, while the fight inside was equally spectacular. Fu Zi watched as the two communicated and quickly determined that their intention was to attack someone.
He rested his chin on his hand, watching the scene with great interest, as if he had discovered some interesting prey.
The people fighting were not paying attention to how others viewed them.
The commotion was so loud that even Baili Xiuwen and Xuan Chi stood beside Fu Ziyi watching the fight, their eyes filled with confusion. "How did these three start fighting? Weren't they just arguing?"
"It's probably because Ningxi didn't answer the other two, so they got angry and then attacked," Fu Ziyi said to Baili Xiuwen.
He didn't hear them talking, nor did he see them exchanging glances, so this was his guess, and he was 100% sure of it.
These two people were taken aback by these words, but when they thought about who was the one who stepped in to fight, they realized that it made perfect sense.
What started as one person watching the show has now grown into three people, requiring only one fight.
Xu Yuehuai glanced at the situation when she had a moment to spare. When she saw them fighting, she didn't seem surprised at all. Mei Ming, who was standing next to her, also noticed the situation and looked at Xu Yuehuai with surprise. "Aren't you going to help them or do anything about it? What if something happens?"
"Something happened? What do you mean by something?" Xu Yuehuai didn't quite understand what this meant.
Mei Ming was taken aback. He felt that there was still a barrier between him and these people, otherwise why would he not understand what Xu Yuehuai was asking him? "Naturally, it's about them fighting. What if someone gets eliminated? Aren't you on the same team? Weren't you supposed to protect them?"
When Xu Yuehuai heard these questions, she didn't even raise her head and said, "I did say that, but that doesn't stop me from continuing to search for a way out of here. I also said that I would protect them, but that would only be in situations where danger was bound to happen, not in situations where they've created trouble for themselves and I have to clean up their mess."
"And don't worry, if those two really can't win, they'll call for help, so there's no need to fret," Xu Yuehuai said knowingly.
These words completely surprised Mei Ming, who was standing next to him. This was not the team he had imagined at all. Looking over there again, the three people were just standing there watching the show, without any intention or action of going up to help.
For a moment, he didn't know if he was being too sensitive, or if the group of people in front of him were too relaxed.
Xu Yuehuai returned to her own affairs. All the things in front of her were white, unlike the place she had just been in, which was black, pitch black.
After circling around the area, Xu Yuehuai looked puzzled; logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case at all.
As she pondered this, she noticed a surge of spiritual energy nearby. She immediately turned to see what it was, but the moment her eyes met its contents, her pupils constricted. "Everyone, be careful!"
She called out to Fu Ziyi and the others behind her, and Mei Ming, who was beside her, became alert the moment he heard the voice.
Apart from the three people fighting over there, everyone else was ready. Fu Ziyi and the others didn't even know what was going on, but it was always good to be prepared.
The next second, a black gas emanated from the place where spiritual energy was surging. However, this gas was neither evil nor demonic, but rather exuded spiritual energy. Xu Yuehuai frowned, not understanding what was going on, when suddenly the surrounding gravity began to change.
The three unprepared people were the first to be affected by the spiritual energy, and they all headed towards the cave entrance where the spiritual energy was surging. Just as they were about to fall in, Xu Yuehuai quickly grabbed Shangguan Xi's hand, and Nangong Yu, who was behind her, grabbed Shangguan Xi's foot.
If it were just the two of them, it wouldn't be a problem. But when Ning Xi came over, she subconsciously wanted to grab onto something that could help her survive. The largest and most obvious one was Xu Yuehuai, who was holding onto the two of them, and the easiest thing to grab onto was Nangong Yu's leg, who was at the very back.
In doing so, Xu Yuehuai was holding onto three people by herself. The last one was the closest to the center of gravity, which was also the place with the strongest gravity. Even Xu Yuehuai couldn't hold on, and the four of them fell in like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
Mei Ming tried to reach out and grab Xu Yuehuai, but she showed no interest in taking his hand.
She herself couldn't even hold back three people, so how could she dare to let Mei Ming hold back four people? Wouldn't that just be putting one more person in danger?
Fu Ziyi and the others were originally watching the show, but when they saw Xu Yuehuai fall down with them, they all rushed over anxiously, even wanting to go down with them. But who would have thought that the thing disappeared the moment it sucked Xu Yuehuai and the others in, and when they got there, the place had returned to normal, and there was no sign of any problem on their faces.
Fu Ziyi's eyes were unfriendly, even murderous. Mei Ming, who was standing next to him, shrank back. He felt that if there were other people around, the place would definitely be littered with corpses.
