Xie Yann was surprised that despite having a cultivation level higher than Xie Huamao by a small tier, he still couldn’t do anything to Xie Huamao.
Xie Huamao was also taken aback that Xie Yann’s cultivation level was actually higher than his.
Obviously, he was supposed to be the most talented of this generation in the Xie family.
Thinking of this, a hint of murderous intent appeared in Xie Huamao’s eyes.
No matter what, Xie Yann could not be allowed to stay.
Xie Yann could sense the malice emanating from Xie Huamao.
A trace of vigilance rose in his heart. While sparring with Xie Huamao, he kept guarding against him, knowing that this dog was surely plotting how to ambush him again.
Just as the two were fighting fiercely, suddenly, a few black needles flew out from Xie Huamao’s body.
Seeing this, Xie Yann swiftly dodged to the side.
Seizing the opportunity, Xie Huamao channeled his vital energy and struck a palm at Xie Yann.
After evading the hidden weapon, Xie Yann imdiately gathered his vital energy, flipped his wrist, and blocked Xie Huamao’s palm strike.
Thus, when the two palms collided, they were both pushed far away by each other’s vital energy.
Once they regained their balance, both spit a mouthful of blood.
Just when everyone thought the two might fight again, Xie Huamao suddenly fell.
Before collapsing, disbelief filled Xie Huamao’s eyes.
Seeing this, Xie Yann slightly curled his lips, holding up a black needle as he gestured toward Xie Huamao.
This thing, he had caught with his vital energy when Xie Huamao tried to ambush him earlier.
When blocking Xie Huamao’s palm earlier, he had jabbed this needle into Xie Huamao’s palm.
"Returning this to you," Xie Yann said, tossing the needle onto Xie Huamao.
With the needle falling, Xie Huamao fell to the ground reluctantly, finally closing his eyes.
Seeing this, Xie Yann gave him a kick, knocking him off the stage.
Soon, Xie Huamao was carried away by others.
This year’s Guard Team recruitnt contest had completely co to a close.

The film city was quite far from the Shadow Pavilion, taking nearly an hour’s drive.
By the ti Gu Zhiqi and Su Yunling arrived at the Shadow Pavilion, Yi Tingyu still hadn’t made it.
Many people were already seated in the box, including Yi Tingfeng, Tang Yichen, Jin Cengran, and Ji Xiangsi, whom they’d t just this morning. She still had her head and face wrapped in a black silk scarf.
As soon as the door to the box opened, everyone inside turned their gaze toward it.
"Gu Xiaoxi, Third Brother, you’re here?" Tang Yichen was the first to speak up.
The others also greeted the two of them.
Everyone greeting Gu Zhiqi was no surprise to Yi Tingfeng, but he was a bit surprised to see Ji Xiangsi also greeting Gu Zhiqi, "I an, it’s one thing for Brother Jin and the fourth to know Little Junior Sister, but Ji Xiangsi, how do you know Little Junior Sister too?"
Ji Xiangsi didn’t answer Yi Tingfeng’s question, instead, she gazed steadily at Yi Tingfeng, "Sister Zhizhi is your Little Junior Sister?"
Too many people greeted earlier, so Ji Xiangsi didn’t pay much attention to Yi Tingfeng’s term for Gu Zhiqi until now.
Upon hearing this, Yi Tingfeng raised an eyebrow without saying anything.
Ji Xiangsi understood that this was his silent confirmation.
After a couple of silent seconds, she quietly turned her head to Gu Zhiqi, "So, the Perching Bird that’s been trending several tis recently is Sister Zhizhi?"
Listening to Ji Xiangsi’s words, Gu Zhiqi was montarily confused about whom she was referring to as Perching Bird.
It dawned on her afterward; during the last performance, the na Yi Tingyu and Yi Tingfeng helped her submit was indeed Perching Bird.
Once she understood, Gu Zhiqi gently nodded to Ji Xiangsi.
She was indeed Perching Bird, but she hadn’t paid much attention to trending topics.
Seeing this, Ji Xiangsi had a complicated expression.
Capable of alchemy, prescribing dicine, divination, and playing the piano—are kids these days really this extraordinary?
