One more point scored, the entire venue erupted in thunderous applause.
The faces of the teams from Genesis and Inoue weren’t looking good, and they exchanged glances, resolving to keep a close eye on the dicine Sect.
anwhile, the people from the Satan Association of Country Zi maintained an air of elegance throughout, occasionally tripping up the Poison dicine Sect. It seed as though they were on vacation rather than competing.
The Poison dicine Sect was in a bitter plight. They originally intended to focus on dealing with the dicine Sect and An Yiqing, but who would have thought the Satan Association would suddenly erge, attacking them with no rhy or reason, completely derailing their plans.
An Yiqing, cloaked in invisibility, was continuously observing the twenty-three competing teams on the field, trying to locate people from the Hanyu Sect, but despite watching for a long ti, she found nothing.
At that mont, a sudden pressure emanated from the guest seats, moving towards An Yiqing. Startled, An Yiqing quickly circulated her Inner Breath to dissolve the incoming pressure.
Had soone seen through her Invisibility Technique?
Raising her head towards the guest seats, An Yiqing’s gaze paused on a frail old man.
Is it him?
Narrowing her eyes, An Yiqing’s mind raced. This old man was the creepy one from the Poison dicine Sect, seated in a wheelchair, sporting a large sun hat and sunglasses, resembling a blind man in broad daylight.
The people from the Poison dicine Sect were truly skilled. Previously, when she tracked Shi Ying, she was nearly discovered by that Elder. Today, despite using the Invisibility Technique, this eerie old man managed to detect her again.
Though An Yiqing had completely neutralized the pressure exerted by the opponent, she kept the incident in mind and continued to focus on the course of the competition.
On the guest seats, realizing that the pressure he released had dissipated invisibly, the old man furrowed his brow, staring intently in An Yiqing’s direction.
He couldn’t shake the feeling that sothing was amiss with the dicine Sect, as if they were hiding so sort of power.
After pondering for a mont, he released even stronger pressure, without hesitation, towards An Yiqing’s direction.
However, before An Yiqing could react this ti, Ye Chenghong, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, resting, waved his hand, dispersing the airflow directly.
"Referee, I request a suspension. Soone from the guest seats is sneak-attacking my dicine Sect’s person."
For a mont, an eerie silence fell over the arena, and soon after, all those cultivating ancient martial arts simultaneously turned their gaze to where the old man was seated.
Such potent pressure—only an idiot wouldn’t notice it.
"Everyone felt it, so I don’t think I’m fabricating anything, right? Referee, according to the competition rules, how should we handle assaults against participants during the competition?" Ye Chenghong asked softly.
"Sect Leader, I know!" An Yiqing’s senior disciple brother, Nie Yuan, quickly responded, "According to the competition rules, if one contestant attacks another, the forr gets a major derit and loses ten points. If the attacker isn’t a contestant, their guest qualification is revoked. That old man looks familiar, Sect Leader, if I’m not mistaken, he’s the leader of the Poison dicine Sect, isn’t he?"
Cloaked in invisibility, An Yiqing was amused by Ye Chenghong and Nie Yuan’s coordinated banter. She glanced coldly at the audience, waiting for the person to retaliate.
However, before the old man could open his mouth to explain, the Elder of the Poison dicine Sect was already angered.
"Impudent! Without getting the facts straight, how dare the dicine Sect accuse my Poison dicine Sect?! That gentleman is our Poison dicine Sect’s Elder Keqing, not soone you can insult at will!"
"Exactly! Elder Keqing would never attack soone without reason; he must have his reasons!"
The people of the Poison dicine Sect all chid in.
Ye Chenghong lifted his eyelids to glance at the Elder Keqing and suddenly frowned—why did this Elder Keqing seem a bit odd?
On the judging panel, a few judges conferred among themselves and sent a representative.
"Poison dicine Sect’s Elder Keqing, provide your reason for attacking the dicine Sect."
Everyone’s gaze turned to the audience, waiting for the instigator to speak up.
In the audience, Elder Keqing sat motionless, so still that if not observed closely, one might think he was a corpse.
He didn’t speak, maintaining silence, making everyone present feel uneasy.
After a while, the judge urged him a fourth ti to respond.
"The dicine Sect harbors hidden breaths, which I suspect would be detrintal to the competition."
Reluctantly, Elder Keqing finally opened his mouth.
"Ha! Hidden breaths?" Senior disciple brother Nie Yuan sneered, "The Poison dicine Sect’s Elder Keqing has quite the keen senses. I’m sitting so close and didn’t feel anything. Yet, from such a distance, you perceive everything so clearly. Anyone would think your sect’s Elder has been fixated on catching our dicine Sect’s faults!"
