Shock could be seen in E Shulan’s eyes. If this whip lashed her face, her entire life would be completely done for. Without thinking further, the small sword which was hidden in the hilt of her sword flew out. A white light flashed and blocked Lan Xinyu’s golden whip from making its intended strike.
A crisp ring resounded throughout the space and the golden whip was sent flying back. The son sword also seed to have a spirituality of its own as it returned the hilt of the mother sword just as E Shulan retreated to the edge of the fighting ring and almost lost her balance and fell out of it.
The color of E Shulan’s face alternated between a flushed red and a pale white. Although the son sword blocked Lan Xinyu’s golden whip, the fierce Battle Qi emitted from the whip had swept across her cheeks, leaving behind a hot stinging pain in its wake.
She had originally thought that she could defeat her opponent just based on her Level 8 Battle Qi and had shown off the impressive, dignified manner associated with the Deity Temple. However, she never thought that she would be forced into a corner by her opponent till she almost fell out of the fighting ring. The anger that E Shulan was suppressing in her heart was more unbearable than the stinging pain on her face. If she was really forced out of the fighting ring just like that, not just herself, but the entire Deity Temple’s reputation would have been ruined.
Battle Qi Level 8! At this mont, E Shulan also experienced Lan Xinyu’s true cultivation level. ‘Her cultivation was actually promoted to Level 8.’ E Shulan had naturally seen the information in the booklet that Feng Yan Union sold. It was definitely not wrong. Then, it ant that Lan Xinyu’s breakthrough was sothing that happened only within the last few days. How was that possible?
E Shulan felt doubtful and angry in her heart, but she no longer dared to be careless. Her opponent was also at Battle Qi Level 8 and was no weaker than herself. Furthermore, her opponent had a Level 3 monster beast waiting in the wings. Within a battle between opponents of the sa level, any exterior strength could change the outco of the match.
“Battle Qi Level 8. Lan Xinyu is actually at Battle Qi Level 8 herself. Just as we thought. As a genius maiden, how could her abilities be so simple? Just now she was calm and serious, how was it possible soone at Battle Qi Level 7 possessed such a deanor as calm as that? She is truly a genius young maiden...” The comntators were also surprised and could not help but start chirping away.
“Oh, please! You’re just comnting in hindsight!” jeered the audience below as they pelted the comntators with rotten eggs and tomatoes once more without showing rcy.
After this expression of dissatisfaction, the audience quietened down once again.
But soon enough, the audience began getting noisy again as people started to express their shock at Lan Xinyu’s sudden display of strength. E Shulan watched Lan Xinyu fiercely as she slowly began reciting an ancient and profound scripture.
“Heart Refining Mantra!” exclaid Fu Chengyu as he observed E Shulan with a slightly darkened gaze.
“Heart Refining Mantra?” repeated the fifth princess as she glanced at him, feeling confused.
“It is a secret mantra that mbers of the Deity Temple recite to instantly gather their Battle Qi to its extre strength,” explained Fu Chengyu simply. This was said mostly for Ling Chuxi’s understanding.
A cacophony of voices filled the arena. But when the sound of the ancient scriptures E Shulan was reciting could be heard upon the wind, it made people feel at peace.
An odd qi started to emit from E Shulan. Although her Battle Qi remained at Level 8, but its energy seed to have condensed incredibly. The sword once again attacked and within the dazzling gleam of its blade, there was an additional chill to it.
“Be careful!” Ling Chuxi shouted to caution Lan Xinyu. Lan Xinyu had just been promoted to the Level 8 and she was not very familiar with her usage of her Battle Qi at this level yet. Furthermore, E Shulan’s Battle Qi had beco much more potent after she recited the Heart Refining Mantra.
Lan Xinyu did not dare to be careless as she imdiately summoned her Level 3 Battle Wolf and tried her best to gather her Battle Qi at the sa ti as she waved her golden whip around to defend herself against the oncoming attacks.
The rays of golden and white light crisscrossed, and crisp clangs could be heard. Even the hard surface on the ground had traces of the two strong people’s Battle Qi. Dust and dirt were sent flying onto the fighting ring platform and then the two competitors figures beco vague and the crowd could only differentiate them through their clothes and figures with much scrutiny.
The Level 3 Battle Wolf was also forced aside till it was unable to get close and so it could only circle around the two fast-moving figures, looking for opportunities to deflect E Shulan’s offensive.
A thick white mist suddenly burst out of E Shulan’s sword, and the son sword flew out towards Lan Xinyu’s face.
