"Hey, hey, hey!"
"Using Soul Transmission right in front of ... You don’t respect your master at all, do you?" Ouyang Mingming said, helplessly patting You Yanhan beside her.
"However..." Ouyang Mingming’s tone shifted as she smiled at Su Qing.
"My dear disciple, you should know what your master is thinking." Ouyang Mingming puffed out her chest.
She shot Su Qing a look, telling him to get the hint.
"Junior Brother!" Liu Linlin also whined in a cute, coquettish voice.
Su Qing couldn’t take it anymore. A shiver ran down his spine.
"Alright, alright. But I don’t want to make a huge feast. Let’s just have hot pot."
Su Qing used an Escape Technique to burrow into the ground and left again.
He was heading to the Marketplace.
Hot pot was simple.
After all, Su Qing had already prepared the hot pot base long ago.
He just needed to buy so side ingredients, prep them, and they could eat very soon.
’I’ll have to buy a bit of everything. I never expected everyone would turn into such big eaters after starting Immortal Cultivation.’ The al was quite an expense.
Su Qing spent several Spirit Stones.
He bought a huge pile of things and returned.
Taking out the Copper Pot and washing it, Su Qing began to prepare the various ats and vegetables.
With his formidable skills, Su Qing finished all the prep work in half an hour.
And the three won were already sitting down, eating and chatting.
Su Qing didn’t dare to utter a single word of complaint.
’This is my miserable fate. If I knew then what I know now... I’d rather have stayed ignorant.’
Su Qing sat down and joined them, dipping food into the hot pot.
...
It was a pretty good al.
The happiest one of all was Su Qing’s martial aunt.
As for Su Qing, after he finished eating, he still had to clean up the dishes.
’Can’t afford to slack off.’ After cleaning up, Su Qing thought.
He returned to his room to practice the Five Elents Reincarnation Skill.
「The night passed.」
The third round of the Sect grand competition.
Su Qing and his senior sister, Liu Linlin, set out for the Sect’s tournant stage.
Many people had co to watch the spectacle today.
However, there weren’t many people left to draw lots.
They didn’t even have to wait in line to draw.
Number 18.
Liu Linlin was Number 10.
"It looks like there are less than a hundred people today." Liu Linlin started to get nervous.
Of the people who had made it this far in the Sect grand competition, most of them were on the Celestial Pride List.
And Foundation Establishnt cultivators made up almost thirty percent of them.
This ant there was a high chance Su Qing would face soone in the Foundation Establishnt Realm.
"Number 1, to the stage."
"Number 2, prepare."
Not long after, the Sect grand competition officially began.
From their private room, Su Qing and Liu Linlin could hear the excited and noisy crowd outside.
"It’s Bai Jiangxue."
"True Disciple Bai Jiangxue! It seems she cultivates a Nascent Soul Master’s Cultivation Technique. Just like her na, she’s ice-cold, but she’s so gorgeous it makes you drool!"
"Buddy, are you trying to get beaten up, fantasizing about Fairy Bai Jiangxue like that?"
"Yeah, what a dirty mind!"
"Heh, so what if I fantasize? Soone like her would never even glance at Outer Disciples like us."
"Bai Jiangxue’s opponent is really unlucky. In the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect, it seems only Qian Qiusheng from the Celestial Pride List can defeat her!"
"Yeah, I wish I could be the Fairy’s opponent!"
While they were chattering, the match had already begun.
As expected, her opponent was quickly defeated, his body covered in frost.
...
"Junior Brother, stop staring." Liu Linlin patted Su Qing’s shoulder. For so reason, she just felt uncomfortable.
Su Qing saw that this Bai Jiangxue had snow-white hair and was nearly 1.8 ters tall. She wore a long brocade dress of black and gold that nearly touched the floor.
Her figure was as perfectly proportioned as a Fairy’s.
Her face was cold and indifferent, and she was just as detached when she attacked.
"I was just trying to see how strong the legendary number two on the Celestial Pride List is."
Su Qing said helplessly to Liu Linlin after she patted him.
"Pah! I don’t believe you!" Liu Linlin didn’t buy it at all.
Su Qing didn’t want to argue.
This Bai Jiangxue hadn’t used her true strength at all.
Silence fell in the private room once more.
Liu Linlin didn’t speak either, just watched the fights.
Because these next few matches were even more spectacular and magnificent.
Number 10.
Liu Linlin went on stage.
Her opponent was an Inner Sect Disciple at the Foundation Establishnt Realm.
When the fight started, both of them were practically flying.
However, Liu Linlin was quickly at a disadvantage.
For Magical Artifacts, Liu Linlin only had an Upper Grade sword, not the Demon Sword Su Qing had given her.
Elixirs, Talismans, and even an Array Plate—the Inner Sect Disciple used them all to subdue his opponent.
This was exactly where Liu Linlin fell short.
Even though she unleashed her Great Sun True Fla and heavily injured her opponent, she was still defeated before he was.
It was said that her opponent was also on the Celestial Pride List and practiced the Heavy Yuan Water Demon Technique.
He followed the Demon Dao but still possessed a Spirit Root. His combat skills and treasures as a Foundation Establishnt cultivator were simply beyond what a fledgling like Liu Linlin, who had just entered the Foundation Establishnt Realm, could comprehend.
But Liu Linlin seed stubbornly focused on Swordsmanship; after all, You Yanhan’s own Swordsmanship was extraordinary.
If her Swordsmanship was lacking, she would surely feel that she had brought sha to her master’s lineage.
’Senior Sister’s loss wasn’t unfair. I hope she learns that a battle is about more than just Swordsmanship.’
That’s right. Even Su Qing himself used more than just Swordsmanship.
It was just that he hadn’t had a chance to use so of his best Magic.
He barely had any opportunities to use his Magical Treasure, the Blade of Wholeness, as his opponents simply weren’t strong enough.
He had only suffered one defeat, which was in a soul cultivation battle, and he couldn’t use a Magical Treasure in that fight anyway.
In any case, Su Qing now had no weaknesses.
Among those in the sa realm, who could possibly restrain him in an instant?
Su Qing had this confidence in his heart.
After watching the show for a while, it was soon Su Qing’s turn.
"Number 17, to the stage."
"Number 18, prepare."
As Su Qing got ready, he noticed that quite a few people were looking at him.
So of those gazes were filled with thick killing intent.
Su Qing looked over at the sea of spectators, but he couldn’t tell which person held such a deep grudge against him.
"Number 18, to the stage."
"Number 19, prepare."
Su Qing stepped onto the stage.
His opponent was a woman who looked at him with curiosity.
"Hello. I am Fang Yao, a True Disciple of the Holy Pill Hall."
"Su Qing, a True Disciple of Cold Extremity Peak. Hello." Su Qing introduced himself as well.
A True Disciple from the Holy Pill Hall.
...
"Begin," the Steward Elder announced.
Su Qing imdiately used an Escape Technique.
He vanished from the ground.
Fang Yao, however, leaped into the air and began to fly.
Foundation Establishnt Realm!
Su Qing had no choice but to reappear.
His Earth Vein Resonance Technique was useless against an opponent in the air.
When Fang Yao found that she couldn’t shake Su Qing’s soul at all, she used a Soul Killing Technique.
"Seven Nails Sealing Soul!"
The sensitive Su Qing imdiately detected seven Soul Nails appearing around his opponent.
After locking onto Su Qing, they shot toward him.
"Excellent! A Soul Cultivator!" Su Qing laughed heartily.
"Five Elents Tribulation Thunder Seal!"
A five-colored flash of light burst from between Su Qing’s eyebrows.
The flash, like a bolt of lightning, rushed to et the seven Soul Nails.
The Five Elents Tribulation Thunder Seal was very powerful. It swept past, and the Soul Nails dissipated.
Su Qing had no intention of gravely injuring her, so the Five Elents Tribulation Thunder Seal only struck the arm of her soul.
Her vision went black for an instant. A shuddering force of lightning traveled up her soul’s arm.
It made Fang Yao’s entire body start to tremble.
She lost control of her flight and fell to the ground.
"So, do you surrender?" Su Qing’s slightly cheerful voice sounded in Fang Yao’s ear.
"If you’re not convinced, we can keep fighting!" Su Qing then calmly continued, addressing the fallen Fang Yao.
"I surrender." Knowing she couldn’t win, Fang Yao decisively surrendered.
"What kind of Secret Technique was that? Did Elder Ouyang teach it to you?" Fang Yao couldn’t understand how she had been defeated when her Soul Path was so strong.
Su Qing shook his head and smiled. "No. You could say... I created it myself."
