In a quiet small room not far from Xiao Yan's room, a graceful and delicate figure stood under the moonlight. An old man stood behind her with his hands hanging by his side.
"Miss, a month is up. Aren't you going to leave?”The heavy atmosphere lasted for a moment before the old man raised his head. That face was naturally Ling Ying, who had been protecting Dong 'er.
Her delicate body trembled imperceptibly. A long while later, a faint sigh sounded,"Let's wait for a few more days. Once Xiao Yan ge-ge has successfully obtained the top ten of the Grand Competition, I will be able to leave in peace.”
Ling Ying helplessly nodded and did not say anything. He was just about to withdraw when Xun Er called out to him.
"Old Ling, please go back to the clan and give this to my father.”As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand. A rectangular white token lay on his palm. It was painted with white auspicious clouds. On the front of the token was engraved the word 'Ancient.' The entire token looked as ethereal as clouds.
"I understand, miss. I will personally hand it over to the clan leader.”Ling Ying's face was solemn. This token was something unique to the ancient race. It could store a person's information, and it was very precious.
"Looks like something terrible is about to happen.”This was what Ling Ying thought before he left.
……
Meanwhile, the elders of the inner court were currently discussing tomorrow's competition. Each of them was in a heated discussion…
"First Elder, I think it is better to directly let Zi Yan advance. I think that no one will object.”An elder stood up and said.
His words had also obtained the agreement of the other Elders. After all, Zi Yan's strength was clearly known in the hearts of the Elders present.
"Then what about Qin Feng? Judging from his performance today, he had yet to show his true strength.”
"Young people should be tested more often. What we need are students who are independent, not students who are like flowers.”The elder who spoke earlier stood up and said.
"Alright. Stop arguing." The First Elder seated in the main seat, Su Qian! He spoke.
The elders immediately shut their mouths and sat on their chairs. The entire meeting hall returned to its usual calm.
"That Qin Feng, I was also thinking of letting him advance. After all, those two personally asked me to take care of him.”Su Qian's calm voice sounded. Ignoring the expressions of the various Elders, he continued,"However, if we do this, it will cause the other students to feel unfair. After all, a student who has just entered the Inner Academy can directly advance, which is somewhat unfair to the other students.”
"Zi Yan was personally brought to the Inner Academy by me. I am very clear about her strength. I believe that there is no student who would object to her advancement.”
"Then, First Elder, you want Zi Yan to advance?”An elder asked softly.
"No." Su Qian immediately rejected this Elder's question."I've decided to let Zi Yan and Qin Feng compete tomorrow. If Qin Feng wins, he will advance. If he loses, he will draw lots to compete. I think that those two are meaningless."”
All the elders present nodded their heads in unison. If he had good talent, he would definitely be nurtured well. If he had average talent, the academy would not waste its energy on an ordinary person.
"Alright." Seeing that it was meaningless, Su Qian said,"Qin Feng and Zi Yan will compete. The winner will directly advance.”
Qin Feng was unaware of the Elders 'plans. He was currently discussing a deal with Queen Medusa. If he were to know that he was going to fight with Zi Yan, it was unknown what kind of expression he would have.
Tonight, many people were sleepless.
The next day, under the anticipation of countless people, arrived.
The quiet Inner Academy was once again replaced by a boiling atmosphere when the first ray of morning light scattered down from the sky. The many students finished their simple breakfast before they formed groups and rushed toward the open ground.
The enormous square was swiftly filled within a short two hours. Just like yesterday's clamor, it carried all sorts of tones as it soared into the sky.
Half an hour after they arrived at the open ground, the various Elders also arrived one after another. When First Elder Su Qian took his seat, the second day of the competition was officially announced!
"After yesterday's elimination, there are only twenty-five contestants left, so we need to draw lots again.”Su Qian's faint laughter from the judges 'seats reverberated extremely clearly in the ears of everyone present."However, there is still one person remaining from the number of participants this time around. Therefore, there will only be twelve battles today. The final person will advance unconditionally."”
Su Qian's words caused a ripple on the platform. Unlimited advancement? Wasn't this a little too easy? If anyone was lucky, wouldn't they be able to enter the top 13?
"After our discussion last night, we have decided that the person who will directly advance is…one of Zi Yan and Qin Feng.”
Doubtful voices immediately sounded from the audience after Su Qian's words sounded.
"Why was Qin Feng able to advance directly? He's just a new student?”
"Maybe it was because of yesterday's competition, the academy gave special treatment to talented students.”
"Humph, that was also chosen from the top three. What right does Qin Feng have to directly advance?”
Su Qian did not reply to the doubts of the students. He placed his hands behind his back and indifferently looked at Zi Yan and Qin Feng.
When Qin Feng heard this decision, he felt a little strange. Zi Yan did not question him. She warmed up on the spot after Su Qian's words sounded.
"Zi Yan and Qin Feng will stay behind. The others will wait for the result on the viewing platform.”
The twenty-three people participating in the competition instantly disappeared from the stage. They were all aware of how terrifying Zi Yan was. Instead, Xiao Yan glanced at Qin Feng as he left and said,"Be careful, this little girl is not to be trifled with.”Although he knew that the two of them knew each other, he still reminded Qin Feng. However, it made Qin Feng feel warm in his heart.
"Guess who will win this time?" On the viewing gallery, Lin Xiuya spoke indifferently to Yan Hao and Han Yue.
"I guess that senior sister Zi Yan will be able to win. Although that Qin Feng has some ability, he is merely borrowing external strength.”Yan Hao thought for a moment and said.
"I think Qin Feng will win." Han Yue had a different opinion from Yan Hao.
"Xun Er, do you think Qin Feng can win?”
"Didn't Xiao Yan ge-ge already have the answer in his heart? Why do you still ask Xun Er?”
"Hehe, I'm just a little worried.”
"He will win." Xun Er said a sentence that contained deep meaning. Her eyes stared straight at Qin Feng as she thought in her heart,"Are you or are you not? Quickly let me see.”
"Zi Yan, we should relax a little. After all, it is only a competition.”Qin Feng spoke ingratiatingly as he looked at Zi Yan who was warming up.
"No, I will do my best."
“…….”
"Alright, are the two of you ready? Whoever won would advance to the next round, and the loser would still draw lots to compete. Did the two of you hear it clearly?"
After saying that, he raised his right hand high and then suddenly lowered it.”
Zi Yan suddenly exerted strength under her feet. The hard stone floor was instantly turned into powder. She clenched her right hand and a powerful Dou Qi agglomerated within it. A 'chi chi' sound that tore through the air resounded over the empty competition ground.
Qin Feng extended his right hand and instantly grabbed Zi Yan's small hand. He took a step back. After all, Magical Beasts were much stronger than humans.
Zi Yan did not panic when she saw Qin Feng receive her punch. She grabbed Qin Feng's arm with her left hand and swept her right leg toward Qin Feng's head. Qin Feng's other hand grabbed Zi Yan's calf. Immediately, his entire body involuntarily swayed. Zi Yan twisted her body in the air. Her left leg swept toward Qin Feng's head from top to bottom.
Qin Feng immediately released his hands when he sensed this attack from Zi Yan. His body pulled back explosively and immediately appeared ten meters away from Zi Yan.
"Boom!"
Zi Yan's kick directly blasted a large hole in the arena. Densely packed crack lines spread in all directions from the hole. Seeing this attack, the students and elders on the stage broke out in cold sweat.
If they were to take it head-on…Thinking of the consequences of this attack, all the students and elders trembled.
"Hey, little girl, do you want to kill me?”Qin Feng cried out to Zi Yan. If he had not retreated earlier and used his body to block it, it was likely that he would have long lost.
"Hmph, I'm going all out to compete with you. Today, you have to compete with me seriously, or else I'll…If I…you know the consequences." Zi Yan did not recall what weakness Qin Feng had in the end. Immediately, her small face turned cold. She crossed her hands in front of her chest and curled her mouth as she spoke.
Consequences? Qin Feng could not help but feel a headache when he recalled Zi Yan's actions in the Qian Kun Ring back then. Although Zi Yan had forgotten about it, he remembered it clearly. He knew that if he did not properly compete with Zi Yan today, he would have to return to the previous scene. Hence, Qin Feng could only pull out Nightmare.
"Little girl, let me tell you, I'll play a good game with you next.”Qin Feng solemnly said to Zi Yan,"That is a game where one's life is used as a bet."”
"Hmph, I'm not afraid." Zi Yan was also a little afraid in her heart. However, when she thought of the fact that there were so many people here, she could not possibly lose face for her senior sister.
"Alright, be careful." Qin Feng once again reminded Zi Yan. After which, he uttered the words 'Blade Slayer's Liberation…
