Just when everyone's hearts were in their throats, worried that Ouyang Si would lose, a cry of an eagle resounded throughout the arena. The Thunder Eagle, summoned by the contract, came and its lightning speed reversed the inevitable defeat for Ouyang Si. The Thunder Eagle used offense as defense and disrupted Tian Ning's attack!
Seeing this, Tian Ning sheathed his sword and obediently raised his hand to ask, "We are having a swordsmanship competition. Isn't it against the rules to let spirit beasts participate?"
Tian Ning still remembered that back in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, she was banned from using talismans because she threw too many.
So we need to ask beforehand.
The members of the Eight Great Families naturally assumed that she felt it was unfair, since without the appearance of Thunder Eagle, Ouyang Si would have lost the match long ago.
“Of course it’s not against the rules,” an elder from the Ouyang family stepped forward and said matter-of-factly, “Anyone standing on the field who wins the match through their own ability is not against the rules!”
Perhaps feeling that this reason was too perfunctory, the elder added, "If it were truly a fair swordsmanship competition, then each of you should be using the same sword... Since you can use a sword with a sword spirit, why can't Ouyang Si's contracted beast? After all, you both earned the recognition of your sword spirits and contracted beasts through your own strength!"
After everyone finished speaking, the entire arena fell silent.
This is clearly a case of misrepresentation.
Can the swords used in sword-wielding competitions compare to those of contracted beasts?
Even though everyone knew the truth, no one said anything. After all, this brat had been incredibly arrogant before! Now look what happened, she's gotten what she deserved.
The elder, without batting an eye, asked in return, "Do you have any more questions? If not, let's continue the competition."
Tianning had no problem at all; the elder's words resonated deeply with her!
Before the eight prominent families in the audience could even feel sorry for this young girl who was being manipulated by those old fogies of the elders, she was completely out of control.
Tian Ning patted the bracelets on her two hands, and soon, Long Yunqi and the little vine transformed into a pair of beautiful children, like a golden boy and a jade girl, appearing before everyone.
Everyone: "..."
No one expected her to pull this stunt so suddenly, and now the entire arena is even quieter than before.
"This..." the elder began with difficulty, "Is this yours?"
Tian Ning smiled brightly: "Really, Elder, don't you know what it is?"
Elder: "..."
The elder felt a lump in his throat.
No, nobody would have guessed she had a contracted beast! Although the elders did remember her signing up for the beast-taming competition, the preliminary round record clearly showed the sparrow on her head...
Then suddenly, a bombshell dropped: not only did they have a contracted beast, but it was also a contracted beast that could transform!
If I'm not mistaken, those are... dragon horns on the boy's head?
The elder's expression changed drastically, as if he had suddenly remembered something.
The Wenren family... The Wenren family... The Dragon Clan!
Depend on!
If it really is a dragon, then what's the point of the upcoming beast-taming competition?
Judging from the boy's transformed form, he should still be a young dragon, but a dragon is still a dragon, far superior to ordinary spirit beasts!
But what shocked the elder even more was that the little girl wasn't even a spirit beast.
As the little vine sprouted green branches to try and catch the thunder eagle flying in the air, someone exclaimed, "An awakened, intelligent spirit plant?"
Now look what happened! The elder wished he could slap himself a few times...
