Chapter 100

"Accept it? Senior Sister, we've only had one match, and it's not clear who has won or lost yet!"

"How did you end up with a personality like that old fox Fu Boran?"

Lu Mingshi's lips twitched, and he immediately said in dissatisfaction.

Since ancient times, one might lose a battle but not the war. Even if he knew he had no chance of winning, he would not give in verbally.

"Alright, there's no need for me to argue with you. Let's continue! If you lose this match, this sparring session can end early!"

The old woman said calmly, her gaze falling on the bearded man behind her.

"Lin Yue, you will fight in the second match!"

"Disciple obeys!" The bearded man bowed respectfully and then walked into the light blue barrier.

Seeing this, Lu Mingshi immediately turned to Xiao Yue: "Yue'er, you will fight in this match!"

"Whatever happens, you must win for me. Otherwise, I won't be able to save face today."

Squinting his eyes, Lu Mingshi whispered.

He could see clearly that although the bearded man was at the eighth level of the Qi Condensation stage, his strength was slightly lower than the other woman.

With Xiao Yue's strength, the match against the other woman would be a fifty-fifty chance.

But against this man, she still had a chance to win.

"Don't worry, Grandfather, I know what to do!"

Xiao Yue nodded lightly and walked forward with a serious expression.

Han Yu's failure, combined with Grandfather's words, increased her pressure.

No, this battle must not be lost!

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yue tried to adjust her state.

As soon as the match began, Lin Yue waved his hand, and five talismans flew toward Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue stood with her sword, and as the attack approached, her figure flickered and disappeared from the spot. She then launched a series of rapid attacks at the opponent.

Both were at the eighth level of the Qi Condensation stage, and the battle quickly became intense.

Su Shier stood on the sidelines, his eyes fixed on the scene.

He noticed that the attack talismans Lin Yue used were not of high grade.

But when the talismans exploded, the power was considerable.

"Strange, the talismans aren't of high grade, so why are they so powerful?"

"Wait... Is it because of the nature of the talismans?"

"Who would have thought that the principle of the Five Elements could be applied to talismans, and when used properly, could have such an effect!"

As Su Shier watched, he analyzed and thought. Seeing this, he felt that the trip was worthwhile.

The battle lasted for an hour.

Lin Yue's strength was not bad, and besides talismans, his spells and magical weapons were also good.

In comparison, Xiao Yue's attack methods were more limited.

But Xiao Yue had a solid foundation and was bold and meticulous. During the battle, she was also learning how the opponent used spells.

After an hour, Xiao Yue feigned an attack with her sword, then used the Rain Summoning Spell to create a giant water bird, which knocked Lin Yue away.

"Thud!"

A dull sound echoed as Lin Yue fell heavily to the ground, taking a while to react.

Getting up, he said frankly to Xiao Yue: "Senior Sister Xiao Yue is indeed formidable. I admit defeat!"

"Junior Brother is too modest. I just got lucky!"

Xiao Yue said politely and then retreated to Lu Mingshi's side.

Lu Mingshi stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction.

Xiao Yue's performance in this match was commendable, especially the last move, which clearly showed she had learned from the opponent's understanding of spells.

This kind of adaptability was particularly rare!

Yue'er's talent may only be above average, but with this mindset, her future achievements will surely surpass mine!

Lu Mingshi felt a sense of pride, and his gaze fell on the old woman, his face beaming.

"Senior Sister Shen, I told you, the outcome isn't decided until the last moment."

"Senior Sister, don't learn from that old fox Fu Boran. Wouldn't it be better to learn from my honesty and sincerity?"

Lu Mingshi smiled broadly, and Xiao Yue's victory made him feel vindicated.

The old woman, hearing this, was not angry but said calmly: "Xiao Yue is indeed strong, but Senior Brother Lu, we are now tied one to one. It's not the last moment yet, no matter how you count it."

"You make it sound like your Luofu Peak has already won."

"What about the last match? How much chance do you have? If I'm not mistaken, your Luofu Peak only has a seventh-level Qi Condensation stage newcomer left!"

"Given his age, how much experience can he have?"

The old woman tilted her head and asked with a smirk.

This light remark felt like a heavy blow to Lu Mingshi's heart.

Lu Mingshi's body trembled, and he glanced at Su Shier, then at the woman in the light yellow dress on the opposite side.

His smile gradually faded, and he looked like a wilted eggplant.

A seventh-level Qi Condensation stage against an eighth-level, what chance could there be?

Damn it, I should have brought a more capable disciple.

Is Su Shier here just to mess with my mind?

Lu Mingshi's good mood vanished, but after a moment of stiffness, he regained his composure and said through gritted teeth: "We won't know until we try!"

"How... does Senior Sister Shen dare to say that your Luoyan Peak will definitely win?"

"The point of this sparring session is to identify problems in the disciples' daily cultivation. Winning or losing isn't that important!"

Lu Mingshi stiffened his neck, but his voice weakened, clearly lacking confidence.

If he admitted defeat now, it would look too undignified, and he wanted to leave with his team.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's start!" The old woman smiled and turned to look at Chu Hongyue behind her.

Without waiting for the old woman to speak, Chu Hongyue smiled and walked into the sparring area.

Seeing this, Lu Mingshi looked at Su Shier expressionlessly and said calmly: "Su Shier, it's your turn!"

Su Shier nodded lightly and walked into the light blue barrier.

"Luoyan Peak, Chu Hongyue!"

"Luofu Peak, Su Shier!"

In the arena, Su Shier and Chu Hongyue faced each other.

Their meeting was particularly intense.

Su Shier remained relatively calm.

After all, he had lost a first-grade supreme defensive talisman and a Qi Gathering Pill to her, but he had obtained a set of high-grade dark weapon magical tools and used her to avoid a crisis.

No matter how you calculate it, he had come out ahead!

Chu Hongyue's chest heaved violently, and thinking of her encounters with Su Shier, her anger flared.

Humph, this scoundrel, I will give him a lesson this time to vent my anger!

Chu Hongyue narrowed her eyes, trying to control her anger, and her eyes flashed with a fierce light.

She was very confident in her strength.

In front of the two peak leaders, she naturally wouldn't go too far, but she believed she could injure him, even break his arm or leg.
