"Huh, when did the Grand Elder emerge from seclusion?"
"It seems like it was yesterday. I overheard my advisor saying it by chance."
"I haven't seen her since the last time the demon barrier was sealed. It turns out she went into seclusion."
"······"
The crowd buzzed with discussion, and Elder Fu Yan's voice, carrying spiritual energy fluctuations, echoed throughout every corner of Blue Star.
"In the first match, number one will compete. Disciples who have obtained the same token, please come up and compete."
The first match was between Li Wan of the Weapon Sect and Shangguan Qing of the Beast Taming Sect.
Without exchanging any pleasantries, the two immediately began fighting.
"Brother Feng, who do you think will win?" Jiang Ling asked.
Feng Yu looked at the two on the stage: "It's hard to say, their strengths are about the same."
"I guess it's Shangguan Qing, after all, Shangguan Qing has been in the top ten for three consecutive years, while Li Wan has only been in it once."
Feng Yu narrowed his eyes. Although he missed the ladder competition last year, he had heard that Li Wan lost to Yao Guanglin in the second round last year. Otherwise, she would definitely have made it into the top ten.
There is still a chance against Shangguan Qing; we just need to make good use of that chance during the battle.
After a stick of incense had burned, Li Wan still lost to Shangguan Qing, simply because she was distracted during the battle, which gave Shangguan Qing an opening to exploit, allowing him to strike her down in one fell swoop.
Soon it was time for number three, Ji Jiuying, to face off against Feng Ling'er from the Dan Sect.

Ji Jiuying sheathed her sword and looked at Feng Ling'er: "What do you want to compete in?"
"Since Junior Sister Lan is not afraid of the poison in Xuanjing's body, she must be an excellent alchemist. How about we have an alchemy competition?"
As soon as Feng Ling'er finished speaking, Feng Qingxue's lips twitched slightly, and she raised her right hand to her forehead. Couldn't Feng Ling'er stop courting death! She actually dared to compete with her in alchemy.
Although she had never witnessed Ji Jiuying's alchemy skills, she could tell from her pills that her alchemy techniques were superb, and the pills were of extremely high purity, which was something that ordinary alchemists could not produce.
Cough cough cough...
Hei Xiangling almost choked on her tea.
