Facing Master Tu Qin, the Little Sparrow Demon, secretly guided by Brother Cheng, suddenly burst into laughter.
Then she clapped her hands loudly.
"Amazing, amazing!"
"No wonder you're an experienced Ninth-grade Immortal Artifact Master. You realized you couldn't win, so you quickly thought of a way to retreat."
"If you back out now, everyone will think you were bound to win the next three rounds but just didn't participate."
"This way, your reputation remains intact."
She raised her thumb, beaming as she 'praised,' "A senior is indeed a senior. So experienced, I've learned sothing new. There's actually a way to save face like this. Admirable, truly admirable!"
Everyone exchanged looks, feeling that there was sothing odd about her words.
Clearly, she was praising him the entire ti, but in reality, she had pushed Master Tu Qin right into the mud, hadn't she?
Needless to say, one could imagine how angry the master himself must be.
"What did you say!"
Faced with such a sarcastic master, Tu Qin was trembling with rage, unsure of how to retaliate.
"You, you little ant..."
Cai Ying interrupted him with a smile.
"Oh dear, master, don't say that. You better leave quickly."
"As long as you don't participate in the last three rounds, you'll remain undefeated, and your dignity stays intact. Isn't that wonderful?"
"Don't worry, I won't go around saying that you're inferior to ."
"Go on, go on, I can pretend like everyone else that you won the last three rounds. After all, we do respect our elders..."
Everyone was left speechless.
You really didn't say that Tu Qin was inferior to you, but isn't everything you said implying that?
You've certainly stripped the mountain of all its bamboo shoots.
Tu Qin was so furious that he had no idea how to retaliate.
Her words left no room for response, so what could he say?
If he were to back out now, it would prove Cai Ying's words right, that he's afraid of losing and too ashad to compete.
Everyone would think that in the future.
He would beco the laughing stock of the entire Demon Realm.
A ninth-grade Immortal Artifact Master simply couldn't accept such a fate.
"Who said I'm afraid to compete?"
"Since you seek humiliation, I'll accompany you to the end. I want to see how you'll reveal your true form!"
Cai Ying shook her head with a look of regret.
"Tsk tsk, that's really not a wise decision for you."
"I advise you to back out early to avoid successive defeats and dying of fury, for that would be my fault..."
Please put away your Divine Techniques!
Everyone's lips twitched; they had never seen soone this an in their lives.
Are you really considering the other person's welfare, or are you cursing them?
"Alright, alright!"
The three Demon Emperors quickly interrupted the Little Sparrow Demon, shielding her behind them.
They didn't want this Celestial Immortal to continue mocking him.
If this continued, Tu Qin really might die of anger.
Anyway, the outco is pretty good now, isn't it?
At least Tu Qin hasn't withdrawn and is determined to stay, which is exactly what the Holy Hall wanted.
As long as Tu Qin wins the next three rounds, and then he can boast a bit, and everyone praises him, it would prove once again that Master Tu Qin is more formidable...
Wouldn't everyone be happy then?
The premise is that the Celestial Immortal performs diocrely in the last three rounds.
In everyone's view, this was a given.
Identifying materials is just a test of knowledge, honestly, you don't have to be an Immortal Artifact Master for that.
But the last three rounds involve real artifact refining, and then she'll definitely show her true level.
So a temporary truce was established.
anwhile, the patience of the Demon Realm's demon emperors had reached its limit.
"Why hasn't the Demon Lord shown up recently?"
"Yeah, it's been a long ti since we saw him."
The Demon Realm can stand firm entirely because of Brother Cheng's presence, so they have to care.
"He hasn't shown up in the last few Grand Demon Palace etings."
"What's really going on?"
Facing the questions from the Cyan Dragon, Ice Phoenix, White Tiger, and other Great Emperors, the Azure Dragon Empress was also troubled.
Jiang Cheng had undergone soul-body separation, leaving only an empty shell in the Demon Palace's inner hall.
This is an extrely dangerous situation, and she naturally didn't dare to publicize it.
She could only evade by saying, "Didn't I say he was in seclusion? It's not been two months yet; why are you all so anxious?"
"Hmph, Cang Ling, you may fool others, but you can't fool !"
The Elder Cyan Dragon looked like he had seen through everything.
"That boy in seclusion?"
"You might believe it, but we don't!"
The other demon emperors recalled Brother Cheng's previous lazy deanor, deeply agreeing.
"That's right, he couldn't possibly be in seclusion."
"Even if he really wanted to seclude himself, it wouldn't be without saying anything."
"Cang Ling, you're definitely lying to us!"
The Elder Cyan Dragon added fuel to the fire.
"I suspect that the Demon Lord is lost in the charms of the two great demonesses, Cang Ling and Miao Yu, unable to extricate himself!"
"A beauty brings disaster!"
"A demoness seduces a foolish ruler, and the end of the mortal world is near. This is a sign of a dying empire. Our Demon Realm is headed for decay, alas and woe..."
Cang Ling wanted nothing more than to drag down that old dragon and give him a thousand kicks.
Darn it, every ti sothing happens, you have to flaunt your 'Great Prophecy Art.'
You're no good at anything but causing trouble!
"Get out of the way!"
Stirred up by the Elder Cyan Dragon, the other demon emperors couldn't stay patient anymore.
"Cang Ling, you'd better get out of the way quickly!"
"Where's that demoness, Miao Yu? Tell her to co out and speak too!"
"Tell us, where have you hidden the Demon Lord?"
The Ear Mouse and the Kunpeng Emperor let their imaginations run wild.
"Given the Demon Lord's temperant, even if he were absorbed in the harem, he'd co out for so fresh air. He's not soone who can sit still."
"Unless... he's encountered an accident!"
"Could it be that... you've already drained him dry?"
Even with Cang Ling's thick skin, she almost blushed red from their antics.
What kind of nonsense is this?
If this keeps up, her own reputation will be destroyed.
If this spreads, how will the demon clans view her in the future?
In her exasperation, she opted to bluntly reveal the truth.
Upon learning that Brother Cheng had undergone soul-body separation and followed Cai Ying to the Demon Realm, the various demon emperors nearly fainted.
The Cyan Dragon Emperor was the first to roar in outrage.
"Is that boy insane?"
"Soul-body separation? He's courting death!"
Spit flew from his mouth.
"He's completely courting death!"
"With just an Immortal Soul venturing into the Immortal and Demon Realms, what's he going to do? Huh? Besides going to die, what else can he do?"
The other demon emperors also couldn't remain calm.
Besides Brother Cheng, no one else knew he had a system that could resurrect him, so they couldn't comprehend his actions.
"This is too dangerous!"
"It's outright insanity!"
"Now it's really over, we're dood!"
"If he dies, how will we deal with the Immortal and Demon Realms in the future?"
"This is madness, what are we going to do now?"
The Cyan Dragon Emperor further lashed out at Cang Ling and Miao Yu: "What the hell were you two doing, why didn't you stop him?"
"Why wasn't I consulted on such a big matter?" he said, as if he were the real Lord of the Demon Realm.
