Chapter 245 The Weird Six
Time quickly arrived at the day of the finals.
The entire main city was bustling with activity, and almost all the citizens in the city gathered near the martial arts arena, just to catch a glimpse of the faces of the leaders of various forces.
At the highest point directly in front of the martial arts arena, there were a total of seven chairs, and below them sat the leaders of other major forces.
For example, Shen Zhanglin and Yun Xiruo were sitting on this floor.
Bai Sinan yawned, really not understanding why these people were so excited.
But thinking of Yan Qianjue...
Damn, I get angry just thinking about it!
Tianhuang Academy is not far from Xuanjian Mountain, so Bai Wan'er saw Bai Sinan in the crowd at a glance.
"Bitch!"
She cursed inwardly, wishing she could cut Bai Sinan into pieces, but she had more important things to do now, so she could only vent her anger on Bai Dianyu who was beside her.
“Did you see that? Your beloved sister has found new friends and has completely forgotten your existence. So, are you sad? In pain? Hahahaha, not only that, you also have to watch how I trample her under my feet and make her a laughing stock for everyone in the main city!”
Bai Dianyu had already been tortured by Bai Wan'er and was covered with bruises. Although there was no sign of abnormality on the outside, as soon as he moved the slightest, he would feel bone-gnawing pain all over his body.
He bit his back teeth tightly to make his voice sound like a normal person: "As long as my little sister is happy, I will be relieved. As for you, do you still want to step on my little sister? Dream on!"
Hearing this, Bai Wan'er's eyes instantly turned cold. She grabbed Bai Dianyu's arm tightly with one hand, with such force that it seemed as if she wanted to crush his bones.
"What did you say?!"
Bai Dianyu bit his lips tightly.
Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He raised his head and said word by word in a trembling voice: "You are dreaming!"
Click!
There was a crisp sound of bones breaking, and Bai Wan'er crushed his arm directly.
But the strange thing was that Bai Dianyu's body was clean, and there was no sign of any broken bones. Not only that, Bai Dianyu could speak normally, but at this time he opened his mouth in pain and could not make a sound.
"Why don't you keep talking tough?" Bai Wan'er retracted her hand and snorted coldly: "If Master hadn't asked me to bring you out to contain Bai Sinan, do you think you would still be here today?"
At this moment, everyone felt a suffocating sense of oppression, and then a hearty voice came into everyone's ears.
"Hahaha, Tao Qihui, it's been a long time since I last saw you, old man!"
Tao Qihui sighed speechlessly: "Ye Gucheng, you old thing, can't you give me some face?"
"Hey, what you said, you didn't save face for me either?"
The two figures appeared at the top seats in the martial arts arena, sitting respectively in the second and third positions on the left side.
At the same time, a red figure suddenly appeared in the third position on the right.
He wore a strange Shura mask on his face and sat lazily on a chair: "For so many years, I haven't seen any of you save face for each other."
"Hahaha, as the saying goes, love and hate each other. You two have been friends for many years."
On the second chair on the right, there also sat a fiery red figure, but unlike in the play, he had a sturdy build and unruly red hair.
For some reason, the moment this figure appeared, Bai Sinan felt that the Yan Clan's sacred fire in his body seemed unusually excited.
Ye Gucheng said from above, "Go away, what's the point of loving and hating each other. Yanyan, as an alchemist, why do you wear such muscular body every day?"
"Hahaha, aren't you afraid that you can't beat your beast? Besides, who says that alchemists have to be skinny and weak?"
At this time, two other figures appeared and sat in the first position on the left and right hands respectively.
"We old guys can only take advantage of this opportunity to get together." The old man on the left was dressed in green, sitting upright, looking like a sage.
Sitting on the right was a middle-aged man with a warm face. He glanced at the empty seat in the middle and sighed, "I wonder if that person will be here in person this year."
"Didn't you say you would come before? Why are you so uncertain now?" Xi Shi raised his eyebrows: "Don't you have accurate information in the City Lord's Mansion?"
Bai Yexing sighed: "You also know his temper. Whether he comes or not is just a matter of a word."
“But after so many years, I think that person will not refuse again this time.” Yi Qingchen guessed while stroking his beard.
However, to everyone's disappointment, the person who came this time was not only not Yan Qianjue, but not even Xiao Wu.
Xiao Yu sat in the main seat in the middle, looking down at everyone with a haughty look: "The master has not come out of retreat recently, so I, Xiao Yu, will temporarily attend this competition on his behalf."
Ye Gucheng frowned immediately after hearing this: "In previous years, even if that person did not attend the competition, it was always Lord Xiaowu who attended on his behalf. How come Lord Xiaowu is also in seclusion this time?"
Ye Gucheng didn't even believe what he said.
How could Xiao Wu choose to retreat with Yan Qianjue when Yan Qianjue was in retreat? So this time, Xiao Yu actually asked Xiao Wu to come.
Xiao Yu snorted softly: "The master is in a critical period of retreat. For the safety of the master, Lord Xiao Wu will naturally protect the law personally."
When she said this, her face was not red and her heart was not beating. She looked serious and everyone thought she was telling the truth.
But even so, the six people present are all big shots with extraordinary status and strength. They are not happy to be on the same level as someone like Xiao Yu.
Xi Shi was the first to say sarcastically, "It seems that Cangming Palace really needs to recruit a few more people this time, otherwise Xiao Wu will be exhausted if he has to do everything alone."
"Hahaha, young palace master, you can't say that. Lord Xiaowu has done so much because he is very powerful. Otherwise, anyone can share the burden for Lord Xiaowu, then wouldn't Cangming Palace lose all its face?" Although Bai Yexing looks amiable, he is merciless when it comes to confronting people.
"What Patriarch Bai said makes sense." Tao Qihui nodded in agreement, then changed the subject and said, "But I think what the young palace master said is more to the point. Otherwise, if such a coincidence happens again in the future, it won't be as bad as it is now. Don't you agree, old thief Gucheng?"
Ye Gucheng glanced at Xiao Yu, whose face had turned green, and sneered, "If you ask me, you shouldn't be so harsh. Even if she is a first-level spiritual fairy, her last name is Xiao, just like Xiao Wu, right? She can send her relatives here, which is enough to give face to us old guys."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu's face finally looked better. After all, she was also a member of the Xiao Guard, and this time she represented the entire Cangming Palace.
Just when he was about to use this opportunity to save his face, he heard a "puff".
I couldn't help laughing during the play: "Senior Ye, please say less. People think you are telling the truth."
"Oh, no wonder they sent her here. It turns out she has a strong psychological endurance and can make excuses for herself."
After hearing Yan Yan's words, everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud. Even the other people in the martial arts arena took the opportunity to snicker.
"You... are simply going too far! I represent Cangming Palace! Do you want to go against Cangming Palace?!" Xiao Yu roared angrily.
"You? Can you represent Cangming Palace?" Yi Qingchen's eyes were sharp. Xiao Yu felt that all the little thoughts in her heart were seen through in an instant. Just one sentence made her speechless and she didn't have the courage to continue speaking.
Bai Yexing smiled and came out to smooth things over: "Okay, everyone has had enough fun, it's time to start the game."
After saying that, he nodded slightly. Seeing this, the referee walked up to the referee's seat and began to read out the rules of the game.
The rules of this competition are slightly different from the previous two times. Instead of a points system, an elimination system is adopted.
Not only that, the individual competition is no longer linked to the college rankings, and the college disciples fight entirely for themselves.
"This individual competition will be held in the form of a ring battle. The specific rules are as follows: Each academy can send three disciples. According to the ranking order of the semi-finals, the first place needs to send a disciple to defend the ring, and then the remaining academies will take turns to challenge. The winner of the challenge needs to continue to defend the ring. During the competition, the contestants cannot use any external force to restore their spiritual power. If you are an alchemist, you can use a pill."
"The competition will continue until the final winner is determined."
