An elder stepped in and added a protective shield to Long Kangnian, announcing the temporary suspension of the competition. After all, it was just a sparring match between sect disciples, and there was no need to make it a fight to the death, especially since he was a promising talent who was still advancing in his cultivation.
Now everyone has to wait for the person to finish advancing.
With only one final match left, everyone was bursting with excitement, eager to see Tianning's teammate make one last move.
Long Aotian, who was picking up trash below the stage, paused for a moment, but didn't look at the person on the stage.
The girl in red who was fighting Long Kangnian was speechless. She couldn't beat him yet, so wouldn't it be asking for trouble if he finished advancing?
The woman in red was named Xiao Roushu. She was the daughter of the sect leader, Xiao, and her partner, born late in life. Knowing full well that she was no match for Long Kangnian after his advancement, she readily raised her hand to admit defeat.
After stepping off the stage, she kept curiously observing Tian Ning from a distance, completely ignoring Long Kangnian, who had advanced in rank while fighting her on stage.
In previous years, a genius like Long Kangnian would have left a deep impression, but this time, an freak of nature appeared, and suddenly everyone felt that someone like Long Kangnian, who suddenly advanced in the middle of a fight, was not so surprising anymore...
Indeed, people shouldn't be compared.
No one was impatient. They just wanted to see Tian Ning make a move. The stronger Long Kangnian became after his advancement, the better. Ideally, he would be more resilient than Xie Xingzhi who had just taken the stage, so everyone could have a good show.
With nothing to do, Tianning picked up Xiaobai and started flipping through a storybook. After reading ten pages, he heard someone shout.
"Junior Brother Long has successfully advanced! He's reached the Great Perfection of Qi Chain!"
"He's the most likely candidate to win this year's championship. I wonder if Junior Sister Tianning can handle him?"
"I'm rooting for Tianning this time, she's an unstoppable dark horse!"
Some disciples even suggested placing bets.
Seeing that Long Kangnian had temporarily stabilized his cultivation, the competition elders then had Tian Ning go on stage to announce the final championship match.
Tianning closed the storybook and went on stage, intending to finish the battle quickly.
She just didn't expect the outcome to be even faster than she anticipated. Before she could even make a move, Long Kangnian on the other side said, "Senior Sister Tianning, I concede!"
Everyone: "..."
That's it?
After waiting for so long, this is what you show us?
Wenren Xue, who was still hoping this guy would give Tianning a good beating: "..."
Long Kangnian, however, was very self-aware and said, "I had been stuck at the ninth level of Qi Chain for a long time, but today I made a breakthrough after watching Senior Sister Tianning's competition. Senior Sister Tianning is no different from my master!"
Tian Ning inexplicably saw starry-eyed admiration in his eyes: "Indeed, everyone who can enter the Sword Guardian Mountain is a genius!"
Tianning: "???"
Everyone: "..."
Some people looked at the group of abnormal guys at Ten Thousand Swords Mountain and wondered if Junior Brother Long had gone mad from advancing in his cultivation.
"Senior Sister Tianning," Long Kangnian said in a low voice as Tianning passed by after leaving the stage, "Please give my regards to my brother."
elder brother?
Tian Ning glanced at her fourth senior brother, who was diligently picking up trash in the crowd. Could it be what she was thinking?
After the competition, the sect leader smiled so broadly that wrinkles appeared on his face, just like Maitreya Buddha, and personally presented them with their prizes.
As the first-place winner, Tian Ning received quite a few good items, including various perfumes and balms for maintaining his spirit sword, several sword technique manuals, and some magical artifacts. For a competition for new disciples, the Myriad Swords Sect was already very generous with these prizes.
However, what puzzled Tianning was that there was no sword among the prizes?
The sect leader's words quickly explained the reason to Tian Ning.
"Three days from now, my Ten Thousand Swords Sect will open the Sword Tomb, and the top ten disciples of this competition will be able to enter!"
