Now is not the time to dwell on this; we should be figuring out how to resolve the issue for them!
"How about I help you out?" Yin Shuyang pointed to his longsword, his meaning clear: to balance things out.
Nian Wanzhou was initially taken aback, but then she seriously considered it, concluding that since things had already come to this, it might be better to strike a balance between the two sides...
“Okay, be careful, it’s best if they’re all the same length!” Nian Wanzhou said, then handed over her head, showing off her uncut bun.
Yin Shuyang quickly prepared himself, took a deep breath after aiming, and only relaxed when he saw that the hair was symmetrical. Then he quietly restored his spiritual power.
Nian Wanzhou checked her hair and smiled with satisfaction after confirming that it was the same length. Thank goodness, her hair wasn't ruined and could still be salvaged.
Looking up, she saw Yin Shuyang recovering his spiritual power. Yin Shuyang smiled awkwardly after realizing he had been discovered.
The two of them made no further moves and waited for Yin Shuyang to recover.
"Are they... just playing around?"
"Exactly! Let's take advantage of his recovery and finish him off! This is a golden opportunity!"
"Kid, hurry up and go!"
The audience was getting really anxious. What was he doing? He just stopped because he got bald. So what if he's bald? He can just grow it back!
They're restoring their spiritual power right in front of you, and you don't even lift a finger? Aren't you a great philanthropist?
The disciples of the Heavenly Mystery Sect were also puzzled. Why was their junior sister still bald? Their questions were quite strange... There must be a reason why their junior sister wasn't taking action, and the disciples of their own sect weren't worried at all.
Their commotion wasted a lot of time, but it was still much faster than the other arenas. At the same time, it gave Yin Shuyang more time to recover his spiritual power and physical strength.
The two then quickly created distance between themselves and began a new round of attacks.
As soon as Yin Shuyang's spiritual power recovered, he immediately began practicing sword techniques at full speed, hoping to force Nian Wanzhou to surrender.
It must be said that Yin Shuyang is truly gifted in swordsmanship, but even so, he is helpless against a body cultivator because his spiritual energy is being depleted too quickly.
However, Nian Wanzhou employed a completely different fighting style.
She used spiritual power to attack, and it was aimed directly at vital points. No matter how the opponent dodged or avoided it, and because of her small body and strong jumping ability, she was like a small cannonball, leaving Yin Shuyang speechless with suffering.
"Pfft..." Yin Shuyang was not a body cultivator after all. With his spiritual power and physical strength suppressing each other, he was injured and fell to the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his body swayed, and he fell straight to the ground.
Yin Shuyang struggled to his feet, glanced at Nian Wanzhou, and tried to make a final stand, but Nian Wanzhou snatched his sword and threw him out of the barrier.
Everyone: ...
Is this even possible? I thought they'd go through all that trouble—cutting hair, restoring spiritual power—and it'd take a lot of time, but it turns out…
It's over already?
Soon, Yin Shuyang was beaten down by Nian Wanzhou again, just like Tang Yi had been at the beginning. He was beaten unconscious.
Then, with a forceful throw from Nian Wanzhou, he crashed through the barrier and landed on a large blue stone below the arena, completely losing consciousness.
Everyone felt that the victory in this competition was unexpected, swift, and yet perfectly inevitable...
The disciples in the nearby arenas hadn't even gotten into the heat of the fight when this one ended so abruptly, which is just ridiculous.
...
This competition left everyone speechless, showing just how extraordinary a little child could be.
The disciples of the Heavenly Mystery Sect were used to it.
Back in the sect, Junior Sister was always this fierce, except for her baldness. For one thing, she even dared to beat up Second Senior Brother, and that was before she even reached the Golden Core stage—she directly challenged him, who was already at the peak of the Golden Core stage…
Seeing the utterly shocked expressions on others' faces, they remained unusually calm, all wondering: Is Junior Sister really that amazing? She's always like this.
He scratched his face, puzzled.
He turned his head and continued to stare at the sect leader!
The fact that Junior Sister went on stage to compete is definitely related to the Sect Master; we must demand an explanation!
The sect leader of the person in question held his forehead, not daring to look at his disciples, for if they made eye contact, he would be stared at by their reproachful eyes.
Wei Wenru had just finished a competition and was covered in injuries when she saw her beloved baby actually taking the stage!
How can this be allowed!
He immediately led his three junior brothers to the sect leader, ready to demand an explanation.
"Sect Master, what's going on? Why is Junior Sister also participating in the competition? How old is she? She's not even as tall as my thigh. Isn't she just at a disadvantage if she goes up to compete?" In her anxiety, Wei Wenru almost forgot the proper etiquette, and then added it back after she finished speaking.
“Yes, Sect Master, by letting Junior Sister go up so easily, aren’t you putting her in danger?” Song Yan, who had come along, also said.
Later disciples would also echo this sentiment before performing the proper etiquette.
"You..." The sect leader held his forehead, his heart filled with bitterness. How could he explain this to his beloved little disciples?
The sect leader wanted to say that he and Nian Wanzhou were outsiders in the whole affair, but considering that it was all orchestrated by fate, he couldn't speak out to stop it or inform too many people, and thus silently endured it all.
The sect leader is so hardworking and toil-filled; he is truly destined to be a laborer!
"I'll explain when we get back. Go pick up your junior sister; she's stepped down." The sect leader really couldn't explain, so he could only shift the focus and pass the buck to Nian Wanzhou, letting her explain properly.
"The winner is Nian Wanzhou of the Tianji Sect!" the elder in charge announced.
Some people in the audience cheered, some looked puzzled, and most were deep in thought.
This competition among the disciples of the Heavenly Mystery Sect is really too strange; it looks bizarre no matter how you look at it.
However, this did not dampen their enthusiasm.
Nian Wanzhou wasn't very happy. She had already reached a very high position, and after a few more matches, she would likely encounter people from her own sect.
The news that she had also participated could no longer be kept secret.
At this moment, Nian Wanzhou was unaware that everyone had already seen the scene of her competition, nor did she know that Wei Wenru was leading her junior brothers and sisters, rushing over in a menacing manner.
What they were supposed to face, the unexpected events—what would happen to Wei Wenru and the other person—did not occur.
After experiencing many things, Nian Wanzhou always felt that Xiao Tiandao's actions this time were to use her to attract attention... Moreover, he did not appear to explain why he wanted her to participate.
Twenty years later, she had become more mature. After adapting to life here, she also experienced being almost taken away by the white dragon from before.
Nian Wanzhou realized that something seemed a little off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what the problem was.
