A little over half an hour later, the magical combat between Feng Tan, Hu Tianying, and Guan Yunyun finally ca to an end.
After all, it was a friendly match among fellow sect mbers, not a life-and-death battle, just about determining who’s stronger.
Guan Yunyun was the first to be defeated.
Between Feng Tan and Hu Tianying, the latter had the upper hand in the end and secured a spot for the Core Formation Middle Stage competition among the Three Sects.
Seeing this scene, Master Yu Yi was a bit upset, but there was nothing she could do except accept it.
With the magical combat over, the three of them flew swiftly towards the crowd.
"Junior Brother Hu, for the Core Formation Middle Stage, it will be you who appears." Zhao Ming said to Hu Tianying with a smile.
"Yes, Sect Leader!" Hu Tianying said with clasped hands.
Feng Tan showed so regret on his face.
As for Guan Yunyun, her expression was normal. After all, her strength was indeed the weakest, not comparable to Feng Tan and Hu Tianying. This internal competition was more about participation for her.
Then, Zhao Ming looked at Wang Tong, Yu Ming, Yu Yi, and Qi Chuan, with a smile on his lips, and said: "Four junior brothers and sisters, we need one person for the Core Formation Early Stage. Who among you is interested?"
"I am interested!" Upon hearing this, Wang Tong imdiately said loudly, stepping out first.
Yu Ming and Yu Yi, a step behind, also stepped out. They shared the sa idea as Guan Yunyun, focusing on participation, as they were probably not as strong as Wang Tong.
After stepping out, both Yu Ming and Yu Yi looked towards Qi Chuan.
Previously, they had heard that Qi Chuan intended to compete with Wang Tong for the spot.
Wang Tong’s gaze also locked onto Qi Chuan, full of fighting spirit.
Zhao Ming and several others at the Core Formation Late Stage and Middle Stage also looked at Qi Chuan.
Under everyone’s gaze, Qi Chuan naturally stepped forward, clasped his hands towards Zhao Ming, and said calmly and firmly: "Sect Leader, I am interested in the Core Formation Early Stage spot for the Three Sects competition!"
"Good!"
Hearing the confidence in Qi Chuan’s tone, Zhao Ming smiled and then waved a big hand: "In that case, the four of you will compete in a match, and whoever wins will get the spot."
"However, this ti, with more participants, you can’t have a free-for-all. Junior Brother Yu Ming, Junior Sister Yu Yi, you two will face each other, and Junior Brother Wang Tong, Junior Brother Qi Chuan, you two will battle!"
"The winners will face off against each other."
With three people, it’s still manageable.
If there’s a free-for-all with four people, the situation can get too chaotic.
In such chaos, the one who makes it to the end might not be the strongest, making it difficult to represent the Immortal Sect against the other Two Nascent Soul Major Sects.
"Understood!"
Upon hearing this, all four responded loudly with clasped hands.
Then, they each turned into an escape light, shooting towards the distance.
Soon, the void was divided into two battlefields, with Qi Chuan and Wang Tong in one group, and Yu Ming and Yu Yi in another, separated by a distance, facing each other from afar.
In the distance, Zhao Ming stood with hands behind his back, smiling as he watched the scene, looking as if he was enjoying a good show.
Qu Xuanlei, Feng Tan, and several others at the Core Formation Middle and Late Stage also cast curious glances.
However, most of their attention was focused on Qi Chuan and Wang Tong.
It’s not that Yu Ming and Yu Yi lacked strength and were insignificant.
Actually, as Core Formation True Masters of the Immortal Sect, their strength was decent.
But compared to Wang Tong, they were still a bit weaker.
The three of them had competed several tis before, and Wang Tong had always won without any suspense.
If Qi Chuan hadn’t stepped up to compete this ti, the Core Formation Early Stage spot in the Three Sects competition would have basically gone to Wang Tong.
Qi Chuan’s appearance created so uncertainty about who would win the spot.
Of course, the majority still believed Wang Tong would ultimately win.
After all, Wang Tong’s strength had long been demonstrated through frequent magical combat over the years.
And Qi Chuan, with too few magical combats and having just recently broken through—even if they vaguely heard the Sect Leader ntion he practiced the Sword Dao—might still be sowhat lacking in foundation.
"Placing bets now!" Zhao Ming waved his hand again, inviting everyone to actively participate in the betting.
"All the junior brothers and sisters are striving hard in magical combat, and now you’re placing bets. It’s just inappropriate, inappropriate..." Hu Tianying couldn’t help but shake his head in lant as he saw this scene.
Earlier, when he was in magical combat with Feng Tan and Guan Yunyun, he had already vaguely noticed Zhao Ming and the others’ actions, and now he was seeing Zhao Ming betting again.
"Stop talking nonsense, are you betting or not? If not, step aside."
Zhao Ming feigned a glare at Hu Tianying.
"Tsk."
Hu Tianying clicked his tongue, shook his head, and then unobtrusively placed a bet.
"Hmm? Junior Brother Hu, what’s the matter with you? Why not take the free bet and hand over a bet instead?"
Zhao Ming looked at Hu Tianying in surprise because the latter actually bet on Qi Chuan, not Wang Tong.
Beside him, Qu Xuanlei also looked at him in astonishnt.
Wang Tong’s magical combat power in the Immortal Sect had always been evident to all.
Hu Tianying shrugged indifferently and said, "Junior Brother Qi Chuan broke through in the Five Elents Pavilion, you know that I have always had high hopes for him."
The Five Elents Pavilion was managed by Hu Tianying.
On the day Qi Chuan broke through to Core Formation, it was Hu Tianying who first ca to the Five Elents Pavilion to greet him, making him the first Immortal Sect Core Formation True Master Qi Chuan t after breaking through.
Due to this connection, Hu Tianying decided to bet on Qi Chuan.
"Moreover, Sect Leader, why don’t you think that by betting on Junior Brother Qi Chuan, I could also gain so resources?"
