Prejudice!
This guy is definitely biased against Murong Ziyue!
Xin Lin curled her lips in disdain, thoroughly disparaging Gui Hu.
On the platform, Zhang Zhiqing and Murong Ziyue each launched their attacks.
Initially, both were holding back and within the blink of an eye, after seven or eight moves, it was still difficult to determine the victor.
"You, you’re holding back your strength."
With one palm, Murong Ziyue forced Zhang Zhiqing back, her eyes shifting slightly.
Zhang Zhiqing’s strength had noticeably increased from the previous round.
It was not apparent to the casual observer, but Murong Ziyue had already noticed it.
"Murong Ziyue, you are very clever, but alas, smart people always make foolish mistakes, soone wants you to lose. If I were you, I would simply concede and avoid the humiliation of a clumsy defeat."
Zhang Zhiqing stroked her forehead, having shed her previous ordinary appearance from the crowd.
Her shoulders shook slightly, and a terrifying surge of True Qi faintly erged from within her body.
That was!
Originally, Zhang Zhiqing was rely oscillating between Third Level as a Xuanwu Practitioner, but as that True Qi appeared, her cultivation rapidly rose!
"Elixir Pills? No, that power is her own. If it were Elixir Pills, they would have been stopped long ago."
Xin Lin’s eyes narrowed, as Fu Xi’s Energy within her seed to stir restlessly.
Zhang Zhiqing’s clothes disappeared, and through her skin and bones, Xin Lin saw the source of the increasingly intense True Qi.
It was the pulse!
The ridians within Zhang Zhiqing’s body were burning at an astonishing rate!
Since arriving in Longteng, Xin Lin understood that the human body had the Five ridians: heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney. At this mont, Zhang Zhiqing was burning her own heart and kidney ridians.
As those ridians burned, the powerful True Qi released allowed Zhang Zhiqing to instantly ascend by one level, two levels... all the way to the Fourth and Fifth Ranks!
Like a roller coaster, Zhang Zhiqing’s cultivation shot up from Third Level to Seventh Level in an instant!
She swept out with a leg, stirring up a whirlwind.
Such incredible speed!
Zhang Zhiqing, like a hurricane, beca a blur, her figure hardly visible.
Ninth-rank Martial Arts, Vortex Leg.
Countless leg shadows enveloped Murong Ziyue, her eyes changing as her body shifted slightly.
Step, step, step—
Murong Ziyue was struck in multiple places right in front of her.
She staggered backward several steps, already at the edge of the platform.
Inside her, a surge of energy and blood roiled.
This was the first ti Murong Ziyue had faced a setback since joining the Zixiao Palace Exam.
The scariest part wasn’t the opponent’s sudden surge in strength, but the fact that Murong Ziyue had no idea why her True Qi had spiked.
How long would this process last, and would her cultivation continue to rise?
Was it better to confront head-on, or to submit?
In Murong Ziyue’s eyes, there was a flicker of thoughtfulness.
Different from others, Murong Ziyue’s true purpose in coming to Longteng Country this ti wasn’t rely for the top spot in the Zixiao Palace Exam.
She had a far more important mission.
That person might also be in Longteng Country!
Seeing Murong Ziyue in a passive situation, Xin Lin was also secretly anxious.
Several tis, she wanted to remind Murong Ziyue, but speaking up would surely reveal her ability to see the human Five ridians.
After so thought, Xin Lin tugged at her Silly Chu father.
She whispered a few words into Silly Chu’s ear.
Silly Chu seed to understand, yet not understand, and looked towards the platform with a blank expression.
"Five ridians... burning... Five ridians."
Silly Chu suddenly clapped loudly, pointing at Zhang Zhiqing.
On the platform, Zhang Zhiqing had pushed Murong Ziyue to the brink, a flash of murderous intent in her eyes, ready to force Murong Ziyue to retreat.
Little did she know, with Silly Chu’s shout from below, both Zhang Zhiqing and Murong Ziyue were taken aback.
