However, although the two seemed to be fighting fiercely, Jun Luoli had actually long since shifted from the initiative to the passive position.
Jun Luoli clearly felt that she could knock her off the stage at any time, but she never used her full strength and pretended to be fighting her fiercely!
"Is the sacred artifact in Li'er's hand?" Emperor Jun Bufan asked.
"Your Majesty, what Li'er took is indeed a sacred artifact. She said she obtained it in a secret realm," Consort Qing said with a smile, but her eyes were intentionally or unintentionally glancing at the Empress.
How could Empress Ji Yuerou not know her thoughts? She simply wanted to show off to her.
When Consort Qing turned her head to look at the arena, the Empress glanced at her as if she were looking at a clown.
I'll just give you a cold laugh. I'll let you have your moment of joy, but there will be times when you cry.
Ji Yue Rou's ability to secure her position as Empress was not solely due to the Duke of Ji!
On the arena.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Ji Jiuying gripped the Black Night tightly. As the chain approached, she instantly leaped up and "clang!" The Black Night severed both ends of the chain. Yes, it was severed.
The crowd below immediately stood up!
No way? The sacred artifact was just severed like that?
It wasn't over yet. Ji Jiuying came to Jun Luoli's side, and Jun Luoli froze on the spot. She realized her intention, but she couldn't dodge it.
The dagger scraped twice across Jun Luoli's hand. "Ah~", "clang", the chain that Jun Luoli was holding fell to the ground.
"You're asking for it!"
Before she could launch an attack, Ji Jiuying kicked her off the stage.
"Li'er!" Consort Qing stood up abruptly.
"Yintao, quickly help me to see Li'er!"
Fortunately, Ji Rufeng flew forward and caught Jun Luoli, feeding her some hemostatic pills.
"Feng Wan wins in arena number one."
The audience erupted in uproar!
I never expected that Feng Wan could beat the Fourth Princess.
Everyone is speculating about who this Feng Wan really is, since she even dares to be ruthless towards the Fourth Princess.
This will surely offend Consort Qing to the core.
Seeing this, the Empress couldn't help but glance at Ji Jiuying below the stage a few more times!
Somewhere in the square, a dirty old man was drinking fine wine and looking towards the arena.
"How mischievous! He truly is worthy of being my old man Yu's apprentice."
Seeing Ji Jiuying slowly walk off the stage, Consort Qing angrily pointed at Ji Jiuying and said, "I don't know what Li'er did to offend you, Miss, that you would treat Li'er so cruelly!"
Ji Jiuying stopped and said with a smile, "Consort Qing, could you please figure out where we are? If you're so afraid of getting hurt, you should keep it at home and treat it like a precious treasure!"
"you!"
After Ji Jiuying finished speaking, she glanced coldly at Ji Rufeng, who was holding the Fourth Princess, with her clear and icy eyes, chuckled, and left.
Ji Rufeng stared intently at Ji Jiuying's departing figure, his sharp eyes fixed on her, revealing a fierce glint in them, filled with boundless anger and hatred, and gradually revealing an undisguised killing intent.
"Xiao Jiu, you're so cool! Well done!"
Ji Jiuying couldn't wait to cheer even before she got close to Wen Longting.
"Keep it down, keep it down~ There's more to come!" Ji Jiuying tapped her head and said.
Wen Chuyu looked at her clear, pool-like eyes and smiled like crescent moons, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up as well.
He had a feeling that she would be the dark horse in this year's talent competition.
······
After stepping down from the arena, Wen Longting patted her chest and said to Ji Jiuying with lingering fear, "Ji Jiuying, it's a good thing you reminded me, otherwise I would have died without even knowing how if I had let my guard down this time."
Her opponent was a spiritual cultivator from a small family, but his strength was not low.
Moreover, her moves were ruthless, and her combat ability was extremely strong, no less than that of the royal princes and nobles.
Most importantly, her weapons are all poisoned!
Fortunately, Ji Jiuying knew it the moment she saw her step onto the stage and reminded Wen Longting.
"It's good that you've learned your lesson. You can't let your guard down against any opponent." Ji Jiuying said, acting like a little adult.
"Pfft~ I know, I know!" Wen Longting couldn't help but laugh at her expression.
Half a day passed, and it was soon coming to an end.
In the end, only eighteen people remained. Unfortunately, Wen Longxiu was defeated by Xuan Jing.
Xuan Jing is known to everyone in the Cangyue Kingdom, except for Ji Jiuying!
Xuan Jing is a prodigy obsessed with cultivation and a warmonger. He disappeared for two years, supposedly to challenge experts in other countries. However, he is a strange person, and anyone who comes into contact with him will be inexplicably poisoned.
Therefore, no one dares to befriend him, and they are even more afraid of being targeted by him. He is a warmonger, and he will not give up until a winner is decided. If you win, he will keep challenging you!
I just don't know what level he's reached now.
There are only ten people on the list of geniuses.
"Congratulations to the remaining participants. We will now have a 15-minute break, after which the draw will take place."
This fifteen-minute period is essentially for everyone to have lunch.
"Xiao Jiu, let's go to a restaurant for lunch together."
Ji Jiuying looked at the sea of people in the square and her lips twitched. "Are you sure there will still be seats if we go to eat now?"
"·····"
“Miss Ji, my master has already prepared a banquet at Yunshui Pavilion. You may bring your friends along.”
"Issue said respectfully."
Yunshui Pavilion? The Yunshui Pavilion that requires reservations to enter?
Wen Longting's mind was filled with thoughts of getting free food again, hehe!
Wen Chuyu lowered her icy blue eyes, concealing the emotions within them.
Ji Jiuying frowned in confusion, but still followed Yingyue to Yunshui Pavilion. "Let's go!"
No sooner had Ji Jiuying left than a figure appeared where Ji Jiuying had just stood.
Qi Yeyue Tower.
"Master, we were still a step too late."
"Understood, you may leave!" Ye Qingchen looked towards the direction of Yunshui Pavilion and said calmly, his expression unreadable.
Upon entering Yunshui Pavilion, the first word that came to Ji Jiuying's mind was "luxury".
Although the downstairs hall was still full, Yunshui Pavilion, unlike other crowded and noisy restaurants, focused on a quiet and comfortable atmosphere.
Unfortunately, I ran into someone I knew.
When Situ Qianqian saw Wen Longxiu and the others, she was immediately enraged. She hadn't forgotten the slap Ji Jiuying gave her, or the humiliation Wen Longting caused her on the stage.
Situ Jiannan also happened to see the group of people at the door, and his gaze fell on Wen Longxiu.
At this moment, a beautiful woman in white appeared beside him. Following Situ Jiannan's gaze, the woman in white finally fixed her gaze on Wen Longxiu.
"I really didn't expect you all to be able to get into Yunshui Pavilion, but I'm afraid you'll be disappointed, it's completely full," Situ Qianqian said sarcastically.
Ji Jiuying and the others didn't expect Situ Qianqian's injuries to heal so quickly. They had all witnessed how badly Ting'er had hit her.
"It seems I didn't hit her hard enough yesterday, otherwise I wouldn't be hearing dogs barking here." Wen Longting didn't hesitate to poke at her sore spot.
