Chapter 348 Sect Competition 9
Chapter 348 Sect Competition 9
I absolutely cannot lose!
This thought took deep root in Yuan Ning's mind!
Senior Sister Cheng Jiu imparted all her knowledge to me during those days.
My own stupid master was anxious and restless during the competition!
And those disciples who believed in her!
So many people are looking forward to it!
She absolutely must win this spot!
The footwork that Cheng Jiu had specially trained her with seemed to have divine assistance, giving her a head start over her competitors!
The figure lunged at the half-shadowed, half-white fish, then crashed heavily to the ground!
Yuan Ning looked at the yin-yang fish in her arms but had not yet smiled.
The surrounding scenery seemed shattered, like a mirror!
Her smile froze slightly!
My heart sank to rock bottom!
when?
When exactly did she get infected?!
Yuan Ning's heart trembled, and she froze in place, holding the fish, not daring to lower her head for a moment!
Congratulations! You won!
A sweet, youthful voice rang in Yuan Ning's ears, seemingly far yet not quite near, but clear enough to resonate deeply.
"I...I won?"
Yuan Ning lowered her head tremblingly, and the half-shadowed, half-white fish stayed quietly in her arms!
Tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably: "Waaah..."
The girl cried uncontrollably, tears and snot streaming down her face, looking disheveled and pitiful: "I won! I won! I got a spot! Waaah!"
"Junior sister, congratulations!" Senior Sister Chang Yue walked down from above, a genuine smile on her lips!
"Senior Sister Cheng Jiu!" The girl threw herself into Cheng Jiu's arms, who was standing behind Chang Yue. "Waaah! Senior Sister, did you see that? I got a spot! It's all thanks to you for the special...cough cough special training! It's all thanks to you, Senior Sister!"
Cheng Jiu was pounced on by the dirty little cat, his body stiffened slightly, and his silver-white referee's robe was stained.
But seeing the little dirty cat's pitiful appearance, she softened her tone: "I saw it, I saw it all, junior sister is amazing!"
Qin Xiangmeng walked over, speaking with the bluntness typical of a Tifeng disciple: "You're the referee, did you help her cheat?"
Almost all the disciples present, who had been brought back to their senses by this unexpected turn of events, focused their attention on Cheng Jiu on the stage!
Cheng Jiu replied decisively, "No!"
"The competition content will be selected by drawing lots on the spot! This will be supervised by the elders!" Senior Sister Chang Yue looked up at the elders supervising from the horizon and said!
It's perfectly normal to be questioned! After all, Yuan Ning acted too decisively, and Cheng Jiu was the referee. According to Yuan Ning, she was able to win this spot thanks to Cheng Jiu.
Given all these coincidences, it would be strange if they didn't arouse suspicion!
Most people probably only dare to sigh in their hearts, but don't dare to ask as directly as Qin Xiangmeng!
"I believe you!" Qin Xiangmeng said earnestly, turning around decisively.
It seems that this presumptuous inquiry is simply to get an answer!
Qin Xiangmeng walked back to the arena, smiled and nodded at the gazes directed at her, her expression radiating clarity and composure.
A faint sense of resentment spread among the participating disciples. Of course, Yuan Ning and the other two were not the only ones who noticed the abnormality, but they were the fastest and the most decisive!
They were only half a step behind the three, but that one step seemed like an insurmountable chasm, and they missed their chance!
However, they also had to admit that Yuan Ning's speed was second to none among Foundation Establishment disciples!
That burst of speed was something even they might not be able to match Yuan Ning's!
Whether it's luck or skill!
It's a fact that one out of ten spots will be filled!
And these eighteen will compete for the last nine spots!
The invisible smoke crackled and popped in the air!
Every disciple's eyes were filled with a desire for victory and ambition!
One by one, white and black fish swam down from the sky, turned around, and burrowed into the disciples' bodies, causing various colored lights to explode on the eighteen disciples!
"The Foundation Establishment finals competition has begun! Disciples, please proceed to your respective arenas!"
Senior Sister Chang Yue stepped forward and announced in a deep voice.
The disciples, whose bodies shimmered with the same light, exchanged glances, their fighting spirit surging like fire!
"What a pity I didn't get to face you!" Yu Anxin looked at Helian Gu beside her with intense fighting spirit, her tone filled with regret and disappointment: "I wanted to experience what it's like to eliminate the number one! You better not lose!"
"I should be the one saying those words to you!" Helian Gu said calmly, though he didn't know why Yu Anxin, a fellow disciple of Sword Peak, was so hostile towards him!
But it cannot be denied that, as fellow young genius sword cultivators, among all the opponents present, he most wanted to fight her!
Yu Anxin leaped off the stage and walked towards her own battlefield, her steps light and her posture elegant: "You'd better win first!"
Helian Gu stared at her figure for a long time!
He's kind of handsome!
Well, he continued walking onto his ring with a cold, handsome face!
Across the arena stood a fair-skinned, handsome, and cool young man. When he met the gaze of the other man, Helian Gu smiled at him!
However, to Qian Shuo, such laughter was nothing short of blatant mockery!
Damn it, is this guy mocking him?
Qian Shuo glared even more fiercely at Helian Gu opposite him!
Why does Qian Shuo dislike Helian Gu so much?
Because they have the same model!
Both are handsome and cool young men, but Qian Shuo's handsomeness, which has a touch of evil, always falls short of He Lian Gu's upright and elegant appearance!
especially!
Qian Shuo overheard the comments made by the senior sisters who supported Helian Gu!
Compared to Helian Gu, he was like a precocious child trying to show off.
This was a deep wound to Qian Shuo's young heart!
Especially now!
Although his senior brothers and sisters were very supportive and garnered a lot of support!
More people support Helian Gu!
You can't get anything done just because you're paid!
Before long, the sound from his side was suppressed by the other side!
Damn it! Damn it!
Qian Shuo was furious, especially since the guy opposite him had eliminated his senior sister before!
That's even more annoying!
For the competition, Qian Shuo didn't wear the cumbersome alchemist's robe! Instead, he wore a light blue outfit with a crane spreading its wings as if about to take flight, and auspicious clouds that were lively and skillfully crafted!
What is most eye-catching is his waist. A red belt tightly binds the boy's slender waist. Instead of jade pendants or other decorations, the belt holds a green medicine pouch about the size of three palms.
The medicine pouch was embroidered with a pattern of intertwined branches and silk threads, exuding a vibrant energy!
The competition begins!
In the previous competition with Senior Sister He Xuan, Qian Shuo witnessed how domineering this guy's sword was!
So we absolutely must not let him get close!
A handful of green seeds fluttered in the wind, while dozens of thorny vines intertwined and hindered the white-robed swordsman's movements!
Qian Shuo then lowered his head and disappeared into the thorny vines!
"Wooden Body Technique!"
Half of Helian Gu was covered by thorny vines, which slowed him down. His sword transformed into a hundred or so sword intents, which shot out rapidly towards the surrounding thorny vines!
Destroy the vines, let's see how you dodge!
A pale blue figure appeared to his left rear, and a delicate little flower bloomed at his feet, tender and lovely!
Qian Shuo reached into the medicine bag again, and green seeds flew everywhere.
Before he could finish doing all this, Helian Gu approached, and Qian Shuo disappeared once again into the scattered broken branches and leaves that Helian Gu had destroyed!
Helian Gu's sword missed its target!
For a moment, Helian Gu felt a little irritated. How could there be someone so good at hiding!
A new wave of vines is attacking!
This time, no thorns grew on the vines. One after another, red and gorgeous flowers bloomed, one on top of another, exuding a bloody smell like clots of blood!
The smell alone is enough to make one nauseous!
The flowers, and even the nectar they secrete, are poisonous!
Like bloodthirsty maws devouring people, they glowed with a chilling, sinister red!
Helian Gu's expression was solemn, and the sword intent around him never dissipated, firmly keeping the man-eating flower away from his body!
The sword in his hand was never exhausted. With each move and each strike, the vines that tried to surround him were cut into pieces, and the red flowers fell helplessly to the ground, crushed into flower mud by the sword intent and the feet!
An unremarkable red flower, its bud firmly locked, its calyx slowly pressing inward.
"boom!"
A bright blue seed shot into the sky!
Although Helian Gu did not hear the movement of the flowers, his eyes were still keenly fixed on the sky!
A familiar azure blue figure flew into the air, showering down handfuls of tiny seeds like a shower of flowers from a celestial maiden!
Round with a slightly hard outer skin, it takes root and sprouts when it lands!
The broken branches and withered leaves on the ground have now become nourishment for these newly sprouted, greedy little creatures.
Ignoring the greedy, clinging branches on the arena, Helian Gu's gaze was clear, heading straight for his target!
Seeing the sword cultivators attacking, Qian Shuo didn't dodge!
The main problem is that there's no way to avoid it!
With a flick of his wrist, a small and exquisite alchemy furnace appeared in his palm.
The sword light splashed pale sparks on the huge alchemy furnace!
A deep sword mark, revealing bone, appeared on the alchemy furnace!
Qian Shuo's eye twitched, and his heart ached!
His precious alchemy furnace!
Those sword cultivators are barbarians!
The next sword strike followed immediately, and Qian Shuo felt a chill on his back as an invisible sword aura condensed behind him!
There's no escaping it!
There's no escaping it!
A sense of crisis was screaming wildly through his body!
"puff!"
At this moment, Qian Shuo felt as if everything before his eyes had become blurry!
A deep, bone-revealing sword wound appeared on his back, and blood dripped from it!
He gritted his teeth and frantically urged the alchemy furnace in front of him to smash downwards!
The alchemy furnace weighs as much as a thousand pounds!
A long, slender hand with prominent veins firmly supported the bottom of the alchemy furnace, and the pale, expressionless pupils were particularly captivating at this moment!
Qian Shuo gritted his teeth!
Even with all our might, we couldn't budge it an inch!
He slapped his hand hard!
The next moment, he rushed straight to the arena, abandoning the alchemy furnace and running away!
Helian Gu slapped the alchemy furnace upwards, and in a flash, he appeared above Qian Shuo and grabbed the red belt!
Stop the descent speed of Qianshuo.
You lost!
Qian Shuo hung in mid-air, looking pitiful like a cat being held by the neck. Hearing this, he sneered, "Loss to your father!"
After speaking, he made a bold move, reaching for his waist. The next moment, with a click, his belt came undone, and the medicine pouch he was holding fell to the ground!
Helian Gu stared blankly at the red belt in his hand.
It was incredibly fast, plunging downwards and scooping up the target in one swift motion!
"Pervert!" came a sharp male voice.
Helian Gu then noticed what he had grabbed!
A pair of light blue pants, clearly a boyish style, whose they belong to is self-evident!
After realizing what had happened, her ears were burning red and her hands were burning painfully.
With a loosening of his grip, the blue pants fluttered and covered the clump of dodder vines swaying in the wind, and the next pair of pants disappeared just like its owner!
Qian Shuo felt he had suffered a huge loss; in order to escape, he had even sacrificed his innocence!
As the white-clad youth landed slightly, the dense dodder swarmed around him like venomous snakes attracted by a fishy smell.
They were then overwhelmed by the boy's aura, and a space was cleared out from the dense, fine branches and leaves!
"If you won't come out, then blame me for forcing you to come out!" Helian Gu said to the empty arena!
A fervent fighting spirit had somehow crept into his indifferent eyes. Interesting! Absolutely fascinating!
Those who stand at the end of the final arena are certainly no ordinary people!
Qian Shuo is the most troublesome and strongest opponent he has ever encountered!
The sword intent was like a merciless bone-scraping machine, relentlessly ravaging the arena. The dense, dreadful branches on the stage offered no resistance whatsoever to Helian Gu's sword intent's strangulation!
But their owner did not appear, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, ready to strike the beast deadly at the crucial moment!
Qian Shuo knew, and Helian Gu knew too!
At this moment, the two of them tacitly understood each other and waited for that crucial moment that they both felt would determine the outcome of the battle!
Qian Shuo's forehead was covered in a dense layer of cold sweat! The wound on his back was constantly draining his energy. Note: He must not take any pills!
The green wood-elemental energy continuously repaired Qian Shuo's wounds, but it was powerless to expel the domineering metal-elemental energy within them! The healing process remained very slow!
Qian Shuo won't last much longer! He knew it!
Helian Gu knew too!
"boom!"
Amidst the white mist, a broken branch at the corner of the arena transformed into a boy, his clothes loose and baggy, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and the wounds on his back revealing the red flesh and blood!
The boy's eyes, however, revealed a chilling madness. Clearly, his appearance this time was not to admit defeat, but to fight to the death!
The boy slowly reached into the medicine pouch beside him!
Helian Valley has made a move!
Enveloped in a chilling determination!
A sweet scent of daisies, thick and sticky like honey!
I can't move!
"When?" Even in this critical moment on the edge of a cliff, his voice remained as calm as an iceberg!
Qian Shuo's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he looked at Helian Gu as if he were looking at a defeated dog: "In the beginning! Don't forget that besides my wood spirit root, I am also an alchemist!"
"How about it? The sleeping potion I concocted on the spot is pretty good, isn't it!"
Qian Shuo, supporting his injured body, staggered to Helian Gu's side, ready to eliminate the genius who had occupied the first place since his appearance!
"I see! Master once said: Never let your guard down before the outcome is decided!"
Qian Shuo turned a deaf ear, thinking it was nothing more than the clamor of a defeated dog!
A strong, bony hand gripped his calf, which was about to be lowered. Qian Shuo looked up in horror along the hand. The person who had been so important just moments before, unable to move, was no longer weak!
"How! How could this be!" Qian Shuo exclaimed, confident in his own abilities!
Clearly, it shouldn't be able to move!
The next moment, a heavy palm strike landed on his chest!
The scenery recedes into the distance!
He crashed heavily to the ground!
"Junior brother!"
"Junior brother!"
His senior brothers, who had come to his aid, quickly surrounded him: "Junior brother, are you alright?"
"Helian Gu wins!" the elder announced. After a while, Helian Gu was still standing on the arena.
"You've won!"
"I know!" Helian Gu gave a bitter smile. "I can't move!"
After saying that, his body went limp and he collapsed onto the ring!
"???"
