Chapter 269 Repair Costs
The two people on the stage kept their distance from each other, both gasping for breath. This move consumed a lot of spiritual energy.
Gu Liyue took out the Qi-replenishing pills and swallowed two of them. When You Tingchu saw this, he also took out the pills and ate two of them.
You Tingchu looked at Gu Liyue, his brows slightly furrowed, and his sword made a humming sound. Gu Liyue looked closely and saw that his sword was covered with a layer of purple-blue lightning patterns, and the electric arc made a small "hissing" sound.
As he swung the sword, lightning patterns flew out and attacked Gu Liyue.
Gu Liyue was secretly shocked: This You Tingchu is also a thunder cultivator.
Her face became solemn, and she mobilized the strange fire to the [Green Light]. With a powerful swing, the strange fire turned into a beam of light and collided with You Tingchu in the air. A sound like thunder-like tearing cloth resounded through the sky.
The lightning pattern came too fiercely and its speed was consumed by the power of the strange fire, and it flew towards Gu Liyue with the strange fire.
Gu Liyue's mind was working frantically, thinking about how to deal with this move.
She transferred the [Green Light] from her right hand to her left hand, wrapped her wide sleeves around her right hand, poured all her spiritual power into her right hand, and slapped the lightning pattern with one palm. The spiritual power condensed into a palm print, which slapped the lightning pattern away, and the strange fire was also taken back.
The thunder pattern was slammed to the ground of the martial arts arena, creating a big hole. Gu Liyue was still frightened.
The audience in the audience couldn't help but worry for Gu Liyue.
This move is a bit risky.
Some people also sighed: "It's been a long time since anyone forced Master You to use this move."
Gu Liyue raised the sword in her right hand again, silently reciting the sword formation formula of "Supreme Sword Technique". In an instant, eighteen swords flew out from the space and surrounded You Tingchu. [Green Light] also flew out of her hand and hung directly above You Tingchu's head.
A total of nineteen swords made clanging sounds, and Gu Liyue chanted the incantations and made hand gestures.
Nineteen swords in the field attacked You Tingchu from different angles. At first he could still cope with it, but then he became more and more flustered, and could not escape the sword formation no matter what.
His robes were torn to pieces, with blood seeping out in some places, and he looked in a terrible state.
He swept across with one move, causing the eighteen swords to change positions from time to time. He took advantage of this opportunity to draw a ray of lightning that struck directly at [Qing Mang].
[Green Light] shone brightly, and after receiving a lightning strike, it hummed continuously and flew back to Gu Liyue's hand. Gu Liyue raised [Green Light] and shook off the electric arc attached to the sword.
The other eighteen swords were recalled by Gu Liyue as it took too much spiritual energy to control nineteen swords at once.
Gu Liyue felt that her inner palace was empty and her spiritual power was running low. Even if You Tingchu didn't make a move, she wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
Thinking about it, she felt that this move was simply wasting her spiritual energy and could not achieve the effect she wanted.
She swallowed two more Qi-replenishing pills. She felt the spiritual power in her spiritual veins slowly gathering in her Dantian, and the golden pill with purple patterns was spinning rapidly.
Her eyes were full of fighting spirit again.
She swung her sword diagonally, and the majestic sword intent poured out, quickly filling the entire martial arts performance. Wherever it went, a faint restraining force spread throughout the venue, slowing You Tingchu's movements.
Gu Liyue's seemingly casual sword slowly and firmly appeared in front of You Tingchu, leaving him with no way to avoid it.
He looked at the green light in front of him that was heading straight for his neck, and a green light flashed in his eyes.
He immediately moved his lips and said, "I give up."
Gu Liyue retracted the [Green Light] and the sword intent immediately withdrew.
The whole audience was stunned. Some people with lower cultivation levels looked puzzled, wondering why he gave up so easily?
The Great Elder was excited. This sword intent was close to the sword realm. You Tingchu’s defeat was not unfair.
He raised his hand to remove the barrier of the martial arts arena and watched the two of them walk off the arena.
The Great Elder looked at the huge hole on the training ground that was blasted out by the lightning.
Gu Liyue looked in the direction where the Great Elder was looking. She didn't dare to speak. This big pit was also caused by You Tingchu's lightning pattern. It had little to do with her. She didn't have to pay for it, right?
You Tingchu was still thinking about the sword moves he had just performed in the martial arts arena and was completely unaware of the situation around him.
The Great Elder said, "This martial arts arena is in such a state of ruin. You will have to pay for its repairs."
Gu Liyue immediately interjected, "This was caused by Senior Brother You's lightning pattern, so it has nothing to do with me."
She saw Fu Qingyun standing behind the Great Elder and gave her a look. After hearing her words, she breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, she had an idea. This Great Elder was trying to trick her again!
You Tingchu looked at everyone in confusion before he understood what his master meant. He said, "Hasn't the academy applied for funds to repair the arena and the martial arts stage? They've been used for years. We only had one fight, so there wasn't much damage!"
Gu Liyue looked at the Great Elder. It seemed that he had cheated her out of a sum of spirit stones and wanted to cheat her out of more.
The Great Elder avoided her gaze and said, "Have you applied yet? You've been handling these chores lately, so I don't know."
Gu Liyue looked at the Great Elder with a half-smile and said, "I see. Shouldn't I return the 90,000 spirit stones I used to build the arena? Great Elder, you can't cheat me like this!"
The Great Elder said awkwardly, "But it was you who destroyed the arena!"
Gu Liyue said, "The arena at your Lingxiao Peak is in such poor condition. I won't dare to fight anyone here anymore."
After hearing this, the Great Elder's expression changed slightly. He reluctantly took out the Qiankun bag that Gu Liyue had just given him and handed it to her slowly.
After Gu Liyue took it, he pulled it twice, and finally let it go unwillingly. The spirit stone hadn't even warmed up yet! He said, "You are still welcome to compete here."
"What if the arena is damaged? I wouldn't dare to fight with all my strength!"
"Just use all your strength. Any damage will be Lingxiao Peak's fault."
"Okay! I'll remember what the Great Elder said."
The Great Elder calmed down and looked at the tired expressions on their faces. He put on his airs and said, "Go and rest."
Gu Liyue took her leave, returned to her own courtyard, and entered the space to practice.
Qingxuan Academy was in an uproar again.
This time, with so many people as witnesses, Gu Liyue defeated You Tingchu. What a shocking news! Gu Liyue once again became a celebrity at Qingxuan Academy.
Many monks wanted to learn swordsmanship from her, but they couldn't find her.
In the next few days, she immersed herself in intensive cultivation.
That day, she received a message from the Xianwenlu that the dean was looking for her, so she had no choice but to leave the space and fly to Tongtian Peak on her sword.
Landing in the square of Tongtian Peak, the students on duty nearby saw her and began to whisper.
"Look, isn't that Gu Liyue?"
"I think so. What's the matter with her coming to see the dean?"
"Did you go to see her fight with Master You that day? I missed it. I heard it was a fantastic fight."
"Yes, you don't know. In the martial arts arena, spiritual energy is flying everywhere, and there are lightning and thunder. It is said that sword intent and sword domain have appeared. Unfortunately, I can't understand it, and I don't know when I can understand it after practicing."
"I have never seen the sword intent and sword domain." He said with a longing look on his face.
