She had Xiaohei block for a mont, quickly moved over, and collected that piece of black teoric iron into her space.
No wonder the second elder’s chanicalchanism Cat was the most powerful; it turned out he used this extrely rare black teoric iron.
When Bai Ruozhu learned chanical Technique from Jiao Ling, she realized that the term "teoric iron" referred to the core part of a teorite fallen from the sky, which is tougher than teorites and is called teoric iron because it is tal.
Additionally, teoric iron cos in many colors, like red teoric iron, silver teoric iron, and so on. Black teoric iron is the best to use in forging chanical Puppets and is extrely rare.
The second elder didn’t want others to see him spitting blood, hurriedly exiting the scene, but he didn’t expect Bai Ruozhu to obtain the core part of his chanicalchanism Cat.
"I’ll fight you to the death!" Fo Lanying’s features twisted with anger, charging at Bai Ruozhu and Xiaohei like a madwoman, grabbing at her waist and instantly throwing out a bunch of chanical Puppets.
From the stands, Fo Lanying’s mother yelled anxiously, "Ying’er, don’t!"
The onlookers gasped in shock; had Fo Lanying gone mad? She couldn’t even control her chanical Puppets on the stage and lost a few. She should control the remaining fight properly, yet she throws out a bunch again—could she even control them well? So impulsive!
The next second, Fo Lanying suddenly threw a pill into her mouth, so fast that even the fifth elder, who had set up a barrier, couldn’t stop her. Imdiately following, her ntal power strengthened noticeably, and she managed to control all those chanical Puppets!
"Banned drug!" Elder Su showed an astonished expression, "Has the second elder gone mad? Giving such things to youngsters—isn’t this harmful?"
The fifth elder showed a serious expression, "If Bai Ruozhu is in danger, I will stop it imdiately."
Elder Su nodded, cupping his hands towards the fifth elder, "Thank you very much."
In the field, Fo Lanying’s expression twisted even more, her eyes filled with an intertwining of hatred and jealousy, making her look like a mad killer. Bai Ruozhu noticed that she beca stronger after consuming the banned drug and quickly retreated, hurriedly setting up a concealing array to hide herself and Xiaohei inside.
She quickly poured hemostatic dicine on her shoulder wound and swallowed a red pill. She used this injury to destroy the second elder’s chanical Puppet, causing him internal injuries. By calculation, she gained in return.
"Are you a turtle hiding in its shell? Co out!" Fo Lanying crazily commanded the chanical Puppets to sweep the field, about to reach Bai Ruozhu. Bai Ruozhu’s eyes showed a serious expression; this hiding wouldn’t work. Since she couldn’t avoid it, she’d make a risky move and sneak attack while Fo Lanying was not calm.
With this thought, she quickly ford a seal in her hand, cast a defensive magic technique on Xiaohei, and then split up to act separately with Xiaohei.
As soon as Xiaohei appeared, Fo Lanying’s attention was indeed all on Xiaohei, allowing Bai Ruozhu to move lightly underfoot and soon relocate behind her.
"Die, you disgusting leopard!" Fo Lanying fiercely clenched her fist, and three chanical Puppets attacked Xiaohei simultaneously.
Xiaohei, protected by a magic defense, was unhard, but the sheer force of three puppets colliding knocked it flying.
Now was the ti; Bai Ruozhu rotated her dagger, and the handle of the knife smashed into the back of Fo Lanying’s neck. Fo Lanying, who had just been laughing manically a mont before, fell silent, her body softening and collapsing.
The chanical Puppets in the field lost control, and Xiaohei easily avoided them, returning to Bai Ruozhu’s side.
"Not hurt, right?" Bai Ruozhu patted its head and asked.
Xiaohei shook its head, shook its body, indicating it had armor and was fine. Bai Ruozhu laughed; luckily, she had prepared battle armor in advance, or Xiaohei would have suffered today.
She turned to look at Fo Lanying; to be honest, at that mont she wanted to slash Fo Lanying’s neck, but in the end, she held back.
This was a barrier set by the fifth elder; she couldn’t believe the fifth elder couldn’t prevent a killing within it. The Jiuli Clan’s rules state that in a competition, one must not take the opponent’s life. She couldn’t let herself break clan rules in a mont of anger, turning a winning situation into being punished; otherwise, her efforts today would be in vain.
Even if the fifth elder intervened, she might end up severely injured.
The fifth elder on the platform let out a heavy sigh of relief. He had been guarding against Fo Lanying, but unexpectedly, Bai Ruozhu suddenly turned the tables. He hadn’t specifically guarded against Bai Ruozhu. If she wanted to kill Fo Lanying, he might not have been able to stop her, and then the second elder would definitely co after him.
At this mont, when the fifth elder looked at Bai Ruozhu, his eyes brimd with appreciation and goodwill. He exclaid to Elder Su, "Today’s young people are remarkable, much more composed than we were at their age. I thought Bai Ruozhu was too young and impulsive, but now that I think about it, each of her steps was well-thought-out; truly impressive."
Elder Su laughed joyfully, as if his own child had won a victory, "Bai Ruozhu seldom fights with others, but her combat awareness is excellent, and her martial arts are not just for show. Plus, with her poison skills, it’s never a problem to preserve her life, which is why I strongly recomnded her for the clan’s trials."
The fifth elder nodded, "I know you well; over the years, you’ve been the fairest. The young ones you recomnd are surely outstanding, but now the second elder is too arrogant, becoming more and more biased in his actions."
The two sighed together, and the fifth elder suddenly reacted, "It’s ti to announce the winner."
He stood up, dispelled the barrier of the testing ground, and announced loudly, "Bai Ruozhu fought calmly, cooperated seamlessly with her beast pet, and won this competition!"
Below the stage, the Bai Family and several young ladies cheered, while those who bet on Fo Lanying’s victory were wailing. They didn’t care much about losing the silver; they just felt it was an unfair loss.
Fo Lanying, even with her parents and the second elder’s chanical Puppets, ended up squandering them. Simply put, she was a waste! She was supposed to be a prominent figure among the clan’s younger generation but was actually a pushover. Plus, many experienced chanists pointed out several of Fo Lanying’s mistakes, leading everyone to feel even more disappointed in her.
At this mont, Fo Lanying, who had been knocked out by Bai Ruozhu, also woke up. She suddenly raised a sword to strike Bai Ruozhu, only to clang against an invisible magical barrier, failing to harm Bai Ruozhu at all.
The fifth elder jumped swiftly into the field, grabbed Fo Lanying, and scolded sharply, "You have already lost the competition; how dare you sneak attack and harm soone?"
Bai Ruozhu sneered inwardly. She never let her guard down at any point, always using magical protection, leaving Fo Lanying no chance to sneak attack her.
"I will kill her, I will kill her!" Fo Lanying struggled desperately, eyes red, wanting to fight Bai Ruozhu to the death.
The fifth elder was so angry he wanted to hit her, but out of respect for the second elder, he restrained himself.
"The competition is over; can you not accept your loss?" he shouted.
