Chapter 8: Master’s bet, I earn it back for you
"This Jiang Qingyi is amazing."
"I heard that when Jiang Qingyi was first brought to Longquan Sword Sect by Elder Xiao, she couldn't reach the Qi Training Realm for several months."
"That's right. Back then, I heard that Jiang Qingyi was like a useless person, but who knew that she would suddenly have an epiphany and make such rapid progress."
"Elder Xiao does have a good eye."
In the spectator seats, people around Xiao Mo were talking about Jiang Qingyi.
Xiao Mo felt a little dazed when he saw Qingyi receiving treatment.
Xiao Mo could never have imagined that Qingyi could actually make it to the finals.
This feeling is like something.
Qingyi is like the protagonist of a novel. Whenever she is about to be defeated in a battle, she can always realize something in the critical moment, or she can make a temporary breakthrough in her realm.
For example, during the semi-finals, Jiang Qingyi refused to surrender in the face of danger, and in the end, Jiang Qingyi broke through to the ninth level of Qi training!
Xiao Mo began to doubt the "life experience" in Bai Shi's book. Was it true that every life was a struggle story of a protagonist, and he was just playing a supporting role?
If this is true, Xiao Mo doesn't think it's a big deal. At least Qingyi has the aura of the protagonist, and at least it won't be so easy for accidents to happen.
"Finals! Jiang Qingyi from Linggan Peak versus Xiao Yan from Yunhai Hall!"
Following the shout of a deacon.
Jiang Qingyi stood up and walked towards the largest magic circle in the center of the plain.
The moment she entered the magic circle, Jiang Qingyi turned her head, looked in the direction of Xiao Mo, and smiled brightly.
Xiao Mo frowned and mouthed the words "Don't be so stubborn" to her.
Before the finals, the master can surrender on behalf of the disciple.
But in the finals, only the disciples themselves can surrender.
But who among those who can enter the finals is not a proud and arrogant genius?
They would not surrender unless they were unable to get up after fighting.
There have even been deaths in the finals of the New Blood Competition in previous years.
Jiang Qingyi stepped into the magic circle as if she hadn't heard her master's instructions.
When the competition began, Xiao Yan was hailed as the favorite to win and the most promising talent of the new generation.
Having already absorbed three kinds of strange fire, he is half a step away from building his foundation, and the quality of his realm is extremely exaggerated.
Each type of strange fire in Xiao Yan's body has different characteristics, and its power becomes stronger as his sword is swung.
Jiang Qingyi didn't even have the chance to fight back and could only keep running away, looking for an opportunity.
"Is all you can do is run?"
Xiao Yan sneered and raised the sword high in his hand.
The sword wave with the characteristics of bone spirit cold fire slashed down.
Jiang Qingyi was unable to dodge and the Xuanshuang Sword forcibly blocked it.
The girl was knocked twenty meters away.
The long sword was stuck in the ground, Jiang Qingyi coughed a few times, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
Xiao Yan would not give Jiang Qingyi a chance to breathe.
In an instant, Xiao Yan's sword came again, pointing directly at Jiang Qingyi's eyebrows.
Jiang Qingyi thrust her sword aside and used the second move of the Caozi Sword Technique - the Pen Moves Like a Dragon and a Snake.
The girl's sword moves are like cursive calligraphy, each one is strange and unpredictable, but gives people a sense of fluency and naturalness.
Her sword energy left an inky afterimage trail in the air.
Although Jiang Qingyi lacks strength, she is very agile.
He used his body movements in conjunction with his sword moves, and the attack angles of each move were extremely tricky.
Even when Jiang Qingyi attacked, there was an afterimage left in the air, which was slightly confusing and could last for a short time, compressing the opponent's space for movement.
In less than ten rounds, Xiao Yan's body was covered with cuts and scars.
Some people felt that Jiang Qingyi had switched from defense to offense and even gained the upper hand.
But in fact, all the elders and deacons including Xiao Mo knew that Jiang Qingyi's attack on Xiao Yan was limited, and Xiao Yan was planning a big one and wanted to kill him with one blow!
"Interesting, but too bad it's not enough. I'm the first in the New Blood Tournament."
After Xiao Yan closed the gap, he felt that it was about time.
He took a step forward, and sword lotus blossomed on the ground one after another.
The scorching flames blew Jiang Qingyi's long hair.
"As a fellow disciple, I'll give you one last chance. Surrender! Otherwise, you'll die with this move of mine!" Waves of fire erupted from Xiao Yan's body.
Although he was a cultivator in the Qi training stage, Xiao Yan was like a god at this moment.
Jiang Qingyi took a deep breath, stood up, and drew his sword: "Come on!"
“You have courage!”
Xiao Yan shouted loudly, and sword lotuses bloomed under his feet.
Cracks appeared on each lotus.
The next moment, the sword lotus exploded.
"Qingyi! Surrender!" Xiao Mo shouted.
Although it was just an experience of life, Xiao Mo knew that everything in the Book of Hundred Worlds was fake.
But after being together for so long, how could I not have feelings for Qingyi?
It's like watching a TV series. It would be sad to see Ran Bing in Ling Cage turned into Wangwang Suibingbing.
Xiao Yan's sword energy, spiritual power, and strange fire mixed together.
Every time a lotus shattered, an aftermath would shock Jiang Qingyi.
When the nine sword lotuses shattered, Jiang Qingyi bled from all seven orifices. She knelt on one knee on the ground, unable to stand up, but she refused to surrender.
The last sword lotus will also be shattered, and it is also the most powerful sword lotus.
Look at that sword lotus.
Jiang Qingyi remembered that several robbers rushed into her home and her parents stuffed her into a closet. She could only watch her parents die in front of her eyes through the gap in the closet.
He remembered being taken away by robbers and brought to a magnificent mansion, where they said they wanted to take his bones.
I remember that when I woke up, I was thrown onto a hill full of corpses.
Thinking back to when I was begging on the streets, I lived one day at a time.
at last.
The girl remembered that she had stolen a few buns and was almost beaten with a stick by the bun shop owner, when her master stood in front of her.
I am able to survive because I met my master.
Because I met my master, I was able to practice.
I can't let my master down!
Master, you are everything to me.
The girl took a deep breath and stood up, the Xuanshuang sword in her hand bursting out with sword intent one after another.
There are nine in total.
"Is this the fourth move of the Grass Sword Technique, the Nine-Leaf Sword?"
"boom!"
At the moment when the last sword lotus exploded, the girl stabbed out with a sword.
A huge noise came from the magic circle, and dust filled the air more than ten meters high.
Xiao Mo quickly flew down from the viewing seat and rushed into the magic circle.
Xiao Mo waved his hand, the dust and sand dissipated, and he saw Qingyi standing there.
On the other side of the magic circle, Xiao Yan had fallen to the ground and completely lost consciousness.
"Qingyi!" Xiao Mo shouted.
Jiang Qingyi heard the voice, turned around, smiled slightly at her master, and then fell forward.
Xiao Mo quickly walked forward and hugged Jiang Qingyi.
"Master."
In Xiao Mo's arms, Jiang Qingyi said weakly.
"Master, I have earned back the money you bet."
