Chapter 1612: Chapter 71: Hero Saves the Beauty
Princess Qingyan was not willing to show weakness either and used her full strength to fight back fiercely.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The clash between the two stunning beauties offered the male spectators a feast for their eyes.
To be honest, the figures of both won were impeccable; although Princess Xinting had her face covered, it was not difficult to discern that her beauty was absolutely not inferior to Princess Qingyan’s, evident from her collagen-rich forehead and clear pupils.
“If one could marry either of these two won, there would be no regrets in life.”
“Stop daydreaming, they are lofty princesses with countless suitors. With our qualifications, we wouldn’t have a chance even in the next life.”
Although these words were a bit discouraging, they were indeed the truth. A phoenix among n would certainly require a dragon among n to be a match.
“Who do you think will win between the two?”
“Although there is a Realm difference between them, it’s not significant, so it’s really hard to say who is stronger or who will win.”
“I guess Princess Xinting of Yuncui Kingdom will definitely win, judging from her swift movent technique.”
“Although at the mont, Princess Qingyan appears to be slightly at a disadvantage, who can guarantee there won’t be a chance for a coback later?”
…
The surrounding audience was abuzz with chatter, so discussing the figures and looks of the two won, others the outco of the competition. For Lin Yifan, he only cared about one result: if Princess Qingyan lost, he wouldn’t step in; if she won, he would imdiately go up to challenge.
Because there were no more strong warriors from Yuncui Academy who could step up, and the contest was nearing its end, even if other academies had hidden experts, there wouldn’t be many, so he could handle it on his own.
In the spectator area, the happiest person upon seeing Princess Xinting taking up the challenge was Yao Shi’an because he could once again enjoy Princess Xinting’s beautiful martial stance.
He believed that the goddess in his heart would definitely win and would certainly be the ultimate victor in this martial arts contest.
“Good hit! Well done!”
Seeing Princess Xinting repeatedly gaining the upper hand, he shouted excitedly, cheering and applauding for her.
Lin Yifan couldn’t be bothered with such a ridiculous admirer. Although Princess Xinting was at an advantage, it was because Princess Qingyan had chosen a defensive strategy.
If an opponent defends and you can’t defeat them, when they figure out your techniques and find your weaknesses, you will quickly face defeat.
This ti, Princess Xinting fought too eagerly, unlike her usual steady style.
Lin Yifan didn’t know why this happened, but he felt Princess Xinting was losing herself.
In fact, Princess Xinting was eager for success because she wanted to showcase herself in front of Tian Cui Academy and the Empress Mother, and also in front of the man she admired.
She knew that Lin Yifan must be watching this match, so she wanted him to rember her martial pose on the stage.
It was these external reasons that caused her to lose her forr composure.
In contrast, Princess Qingyan, battling away from ho, had no such burdens. She had only one goal, which was to defeat Princess Xinting and claim victory.
“Alas! Seems like there’s no one to follow up!” Yun Qing Immortal sighed, feeling that Princess Xinting was about to lose.
This puzzled the royal nobles of the Yuncui Kingdom: “Dean Yun Qing, why do you say that? Isn’t Princess Xinting doing well?”
“On the surface, yes, but in reality, she’s already lost,” Yun Qing Immortal replied.
“Lost? How can that be?”
“If you don’t believe , you’ll find out soon.”
“Ting’er indeed needs improvent!”
At this ti, the Empress of Yuncui Kingdom also spoke up, responding to the ministers’ doubts.
Even the Empress didn’t have faith, so it seed that Princess Xinting might really lose, but how could this be possible?
“If even Princess Xinting loses, then we from Tian Cui Academy won’t have any challengers left.” A minister expressed concern.
The highest prize in this competition is the “Female Earth Bead.” The Female Earth Bead is a Constellation Bead, extrely precious, difficult to obtain even for a large nation.
However, there’s no way around it, as the highest reward has been required to be a Constellation Bead since the competition was established.
Precisely because of this, each year, frenzied competition by the host nation would unfold, aiming to protect the Constellation Bead; it was never just about the martial arts.
“There is still a disparity in strength among the younger generations of different academies. If the skill doesn’t match, there’s no other way.”
Yun Qing Immortal also felt helpless. Who wants to see such a result? But it’s the truth. Whether they want to admit it or not, they have to accept it.
The entire court of civil and military officials were filled with anxiety, but Immortal Konghui appeared calm and unhurried. She had secretly arranged for Lin Yifan to be the last to go on stage. When Princess Xinting could no longer hold up, it was Lin Yifan’s ti to step in.
Princess Xinting, in the midst of battle, was completely unaware that she had fallen into soone else’s trap. The more she fought, the more strenuous it beca, the more annoyed she grew. No matter how fiercely she attacked, she couldn’t defeat Princess Qingyan.
Her impatient mindset beca increasingly uncontrollable.
At this mont, she made a major mistake and missed a sword strike at Princess Qingyan.
Although it was just one less sword strike, in that ti, Princess Qingyan was able to make a desperate counterattack, promptly wounding her.
“Pfft!”
After taking a few steps back, she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, looking seriously injured.
Princess Qingyan pressed her advantage, not giving her a chance to catch her breath.
In a panic, Princess Xinting raised her sword to block, intending to neutralize the move.
However, with unsteady footing and severely injured, she couldn’t neutralize it, and instead was sent flying out.
At that mont, Lin Yifan abruptly stood up, flying forward to catch the backward-flying Princess Xinting.
Princess Xinting initially thought she would suffer a heavy fall, but seeing Lin Yifan appear by her side, catching her willow-like waist, she was filled with gratitude, warmth flooding her heart.
She didn’t expect that, in the most dangerous mont, Lin Yifan would stand up, ensuring her personal safety; could this an Lin Yifan had her in his heart?
Lin Yifan, as always, remained cold and stern, without a trace of deep emotion on his face.
He caught Princess Xinting to take her off the stage, not out of love, but not wanting her to get hurt.
This heroic rescue scene was unbearable for many, especially Yao Shi’an.
This was initially sothing he should have done, yet Lin Yifan, this scheming man, had seized the mont, suggesting his intrigues from the mont he entered the academy. He deliberately got close to Princess Xinting, seeking high status.
Despite his previous belief in Lin Yifan’s rhetorical guile, he no longer believed it now.
When he was about to stand up and push Lin Yifan’s shaless hands away, his good brothers beside him held him back.
Now that Lin Yifan had beco the hero saving the damsel, if Brother Yao were to go up now, not only would he not benefit, but he’d also face a lot of criticism, so they wanted to stop Brother Yao, who was blinded by rage, from doing sothing impulsive.
“Brother, with so many people watching, if you go to snatch the beauty, you’ll be punished.”
