"It was just a competition."
Zeng Shushu said nonchalantly, and then teased Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo didn't even look at Zeng Shushu, but stared at Li Qing'an with her tiny, beady eyes. She pointed at Zeng Shushu with her right arm, and then at her own head.
Zeng Shushu couldn't understand Xiao Luo's body language, so he looked at Li Qingan and asked, "What does it mean?"
Li Qingan took Xiao Luo from him, placed her on his shoulder, and then said with a smile, "It says you're mentally ill."
"Shushu, you talk too much."
Li Qingan looked at him with a mocking expression.
"Impossible, I have a very good relationship with these spirit beasts."
Zeng Shushu, who had just reacted calmly, suddenly blushed.
He felt this was an insult to him!
Slander! Slander!
He's slandering me!
Li Qingan chuckled a few times and walked towards the place where Zhang Xiaofan was fighting.
Seeing that Li Qing'an didn't believe him, Zeng Shushu followed behind him and persistently explained.
The arena where Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu compete.
On the stage, blue and green lights intertwined, making it impossible to see what was happening.
The sounds of swords and clubs clashing could be heard continuously.
The audience watching was completely bewildered, unable to discern what was happening.
The fire poker emitted pitch-black smoke, from which a malevolent aura rose, disturbing one's mind.
Dao Xuan and Cang Song exchanged a glance.
"It seems this is the blood-refined treasure that Junior Nephew Li was talking about."
Cangsong looked at the stick in Zhang Xiaofan's hand and thought to himself.
Before the martial arts competition, he had already discussed with Dao Xuan and Li Qing'an that Cang Song would secretly switch the order so that the two of them would face off to test Zhang Xiaofan's condition.
Zhang Xiaofan's ability to unleash his full potential was originally due to Tian Ling'er being taken away by Qi Hao, which, under the influence of the fire stick, ignited his desire for hatred.
But right now, in Li Qing'an's estimation, the only one who can ignite his competitive spirit is Lin Jingyu.
And of course, there's also himself!
Dao Xuan had already made his decision regarding this fire poker.
However, Cangsong still needs to step in and play the bad cop to confirm Zhang Xiaofan's loyalty to the Qingyun Sect.
Even though Li Qing'an said that Zhang Xiaofan's heart was with Qingyun Sect.
However, Dao Xuan naturally still needed to ensure that nothing went wrong.
After all, he also had to bear the effects of Zhang Xiaofan's dual cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism, so testing him was inevitable.
Zhang Xiaofan was naturally unaware that the two people on the stage had already begun to test him.
Bang---
The two were separated briefly.
Zhang Xiaofan looked at Lin Jingyu in front of him, his expression excited, and said with a smile:
"Jingyu, I never thought I'd be able to spar with you here."
"Xiao Fan, I won't hold back. Let me see your current strength." Lin Jingyu said happily, then took the Dragon Slayer Sword and charged forward again.
He didn't know why his friend, who was the same age as him and was at the fourth level of the Jade Purity Realm, had made it into the top eight!
But he was naturally happy for him too!
"Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu will face off for the ninety-ninth time. I must defeat you."
Chapter 66 The Four Finalists Appear, the Five-Year Competition Agreement
Zhang Xiaofan charged forward, wielding a fire poker.
As he spoke, he was reminded that he had never beaten Lin Jingyu.
His fighting spirit surged, and the black smoke from the fire stick in his hand grew thicker and thicker.
"Clang~"
In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged blows several times, with the Dragon Slayer and the Fire Stick clashing repeatedly.
The shockwaves from the collision of the magical artifacts transformed into halos of light, which then scattered in all directions.
Lin Jingyu felt a constant shrieking sound in his ears, the sound of thousands of wronged souls wailing, forcefully pouring into his mind, causing his internal energy to surge violently.
More importantly, Lin Jingyu actually saw the remains of the villagers of Caomiao Village.
Lifelike, even the wounds are clearly visible.
Lin Jingyu, pale-faced from encountering this situation for the first time, steadied himself by planting the Dragon Slayer in the ground.
Zhang Xiaofan's eyes flashed red, and he was about to rush forward again as he looked at the motionless Lin Jingyu.
"stop."
The disciples of Dragon Head Peak below the stage were shocked and shouted when they saw the strange stick about to hit Lin Jingyu.
However, seeing the clarity in Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, Li Qingan knew there was no problem.
He still had a lot of faith in the calming mantra he had passed on to Zhang Xiaofan.
Dao Xuan and Cang Song, however, were frowning, but they were not worried about Lin Jingyu's safety.
If Zhang Xiaofan could injure someone right under their noses, then all their cultivation would have been for nothing.
What they were concerned about was that Zhang Xiaofan was so easily influenced and couldn't stay focused.
Can he really guarantee that he won't betray his sect in the future?
Just now.
"Jingyu, are you alright?!"
Zhang Xiaofan's fire poker stopped in front of Lin Jingyu, and he placed it on his waist. The red light in his eyes gradually faded.
He stepped forward to help Lin Jingyu up, his face full of worry.
"you win."
Lin Jingyu glanced at the fire poker in Zhang Xiaofan's hand, recalled the scene in Caomiao Village just now, and his internal energy surged, so he lost the desire to compete.
"Zhang Xiaofan from Dazhu Peak advances to the semifinals!"
Seeing this, the referee announced the result.
"Haha, that's great."
Upon seeing that Zhang Xiaofan had actually won, Tian Buyi jumped up from his seat and exclaimed.
The leaders of the various factions turned to look at him simultaneously, their dissatisfaction evident in their expressions.
"cough cough"
Tian Buyi stroked his beard and calmly sat down again.
He never expected that this disciple at the fourth level of the Jade Purity Realm would be able to defeat Lin Jingyu at the seventh level of the Jade Purity Realm.
Dao Xuan and Cang Song ignored Tian Buyi, exchanged another glance, and then nodded slightly.
The Dao Xuan Test of Mortal Hearts is about to begin!
Seeing that Zhang Xiaofan's competition was over, Li Qingan looked up at Lu Xueqi behind Shuiyue.
Tomorrow is his match against Lu Xueqi!
Li Qingan looked up and, besides seeing Lu Xueqi, he also noticed Shuiyue's calm eyes staring at him.
Li Qingan nodded and calmly looked away.
"Senior brother."
Zhang Xiaofan also stepped forward at this moment.
"Not bad, at least I didn't waste so many years of hard training and was able to control myself."
"It's all thanks to my senior brother."
Zhang Xiaofan scratched his head, still as honest and simple as ever.
"You will also be fighting Qi Hao tomorrow. With his strength, just do your best."
"Senior brother, I know what I'm doing."
Zhang Xiaofan smiled upon hearing this.
However, he certainly wouldn't give up so easily.
Moreover, the male disciples of Dazhu Peak did not have a very good opinion of Qi Hao.
After Li Qingan finished speaking, he looked up at Lu Xueqi again, then turned and left.
Behind.
Lu Xueqi watched Li Qingan's retreating figure.
"Brother, I will not be a burden to you!"
.......
In the blink of an eye, another night has passed.
One is a prodigy from Qingyun Sect, unparalleled in both formations and weapon crafting; the other is a young, stunningly beautiful female disciple from Xiaozhu Peak with exceptional talent.
The contest between the two naturally attracted the attention of most of the disciples of Qingyun Sect.
The contest between Lu Xueqi and Li Qingan began in front of many witnesses.
