As soon as the two female disciples stepped onto the fighting platform, an elder arrived and introduced them.
"On the right side, we have Zhang i from the Dual Cultivation departnt," announced the elder. Zhang i smiled gracefully at the crowd.
"And on the left side, we have Min Lin from the non-Dual Cultivation departnt," the elder continued, sparking a lively discussion among the girls.
"Hmm, I didn’t expect the first match to be between the Dual Cultivation and non-Dual Cultivation departnts," Xue Jiaxin remarked with a hint of surprise as she observed the two contestants.
"Girls, who do you think will win?" Tang Jingling asked.
"Even though I hate to admit it, it should be the non-Dual Cultivation departnt. They have more combat experience, and I’m sure this match will be quite easy for that girl," Ren Xi comnted while glancing at Min Lin.
"Huh? Do you know sothing about this girl?" Xue Jiaxin asked, frowning.
"First, her cultivation is at the Peak Core Formation Realm. Moreover, don’t you find her surna, ’Min,’ familiar?" Ren Xi replied. Her words caused the others’ eyes to widen in realization.
"Heavens! Is she from the Min Clan in the imperial capital, one of the top eight families of the Black Bamboo Kingdom?" Lin Xue exclaid.
"If that’s the case, and she indeed belongs to that family, she will win easily," Xue Jiaxin concluded. However, in the next mont, her eyes bulged out in shock.
"What?!" they all exclaid.

"Hmm, I feel sothing is off. Could it be...?" Min Li was suspicious. She was at the Peak Core Formation Realm, and her opponent appeared to be at the Foundation Realm. However, her opponent showed no signs of nervousness, which only heightened Min Li’s unease.
Suddenly, her eyes constricted as she saw her opponent abruptly appear in front of her, aiming a punch at her face. Min Li blocked it just in ti, taking a few steps back. She reevaluated her opponent’s cultivation and was shocked to sense that it was now at the Peak Core Formation Realm—equal to her own.
"Hehe, are you surprised? You non-Dual Cultivation disciples always look down on us because of our cultivation thods. I’ve always wanted to punch one of you," her opponent sneered before charging again. This ti, Min Li was prepared and countered the attacks with precision.
"I don’t recall anyone this strong in the Outer Court. Judging by your spiritual aura, it seems you recently broke through directly from the Foundation Realm. Can you tell
how?" Min Li asked in a low voice as she moved behind her opponent and attempted to land a punch.
"Hehe, it’s all thanks to Disciple Wang Ming’s in-depth massage," her opponent replied with a mischievous smile. Min Li’s eyes narrowed at the revelation.
’As expected. I had a feeling he was behind this,’ Min Li thought. Her mind flashed back to the day she had witnessed Wang Ming’s death match and heard rumors about his massage parlor. At the ti, she dismissed them as exaggerations, but now she believed them to be true.
Boom Boom
They kept moving rapidly, and their fists kept colliding with each other, while sotis one would hit the other on the body, causing damage. Everyone in the audience was watching with excitent in their eyes, witnessing such a high-level battle, and this was just the first round.
"Heavens, when did the other court have such formidable disciples?" the elder in charge of the match muttered, cold sweat dripping from his forehead as he realized both of the disciples were stronger than him and most of the outer and inner court elders, with only the peak masters being stronger than them.
"Damn, you are really strong," said Zhang i as she brought out a spear and thrust it towards Min Li.
"Sa, I did not expect to et such a powerful disciple in the Outer Court," Min Li replied as she brought out a beautiful saber and blocked the thrust with a powerful slash of her sword, generating shockwaves.
This continued for so ti until both were panting heavily, and the platform was almost destroyed.
"Heavens!" exclaid one of the disciples from the crowd.
"How in the heavens did the Outer Court girl beco this strong?" exclaid a female disciple from the crowd.
"Hiss, I thought they were lying," said another female.
"Oh, it seems you know sothing," asked the female as she turned her head toward the other person.
"Hmm, I don’t know about Min Li, but the other girl... I know her. She had Foundation Realm cultivation, along with a few others," she said.
"What? Impossible! How did her cultivation increase so much?" said the other female urgently.
"I heard they dual-cultivated with a disciple nad Wang Ming, and many of their cultivations have reached the Core Formation Realm. I was outside the sect on a mission and learned that he cultivated with almost every single female of the Outer Sect," said the female, also having trouble believing it. When she heard about it, she wanted to go, but found out Wang Ming was outside.
"Seriously???" the other female disciples asked, to which she nodded. Deciding it was true, she thought that if it was, she would also go to cultivate with Wang Ming. She had just returned from closed cultivation and didn’t expect so much to have happened while she was in seclusion.

Finally, after a few more minutes had passed, Min Li narrowly achieved victory over her opponent.
The girls watching from the stands were silent the entire ti of the fight, their eyes bulging in disbelief.
"Xue Jiaxin, didn’t you say Min Li would win easily?" Lin Xue said.

"This..." Xue Jiaxin was left speechless.
"Why does it seem like she was about to lose?" Tang Jingling asked.
"This..." Again, Xue Jiaxin could not find any words to reply. She felt that after eting Wang Ming, she had been left shocked and speechless more tis than in her entire life.
"I guess the male disciples were speaking the truth, huh?" Lin Xue said.
"Let’s not be hasty; there are more matches left, but I’m starting to believe," Ren Xi said.
