"What do you want to bet?" Ji Qinglan frowned.
"Well, let me think about it. Today is the recruitment of our Numerous Sects. Our Qingyun Sect is short of disciples now. How about this? If you lose, you will join our Qingyun Sect!
If I lose, you can do whatever you want to me, even if you want my life! "Li Yu said with a smile.
"Your Highness, you can't do that!" The cold-looking woman who was following behind Ji Qinglan changed her expression and immediately stopped him.
Although she was confident that Ji Qinglan was strong enough to defeat Li Yu, she still had the help of the Sword Immortal.
Besides, with the help of the remnant soul of the Sword Immortal, even a practitioner in the Nascent Soul Realm might not be Ji Qinglan's opponent.
However, when she observed the expressions of Li Yu and the people around him, she felt that their smiles were very strange.
Therefore, there was always an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart.
Hearing Li Yu's words, the onlookers were also in an uproar.
The excitement on their faces was even stronger!
Li Yu's performance was very effective!
He turned the competition into a gambling fight, and the stakes were really high!
If Li Yu won, Ji Qinglan would be ridiculed by the world if he didn't join the Qingyun Sect.
The Xi Liang Dynasty that he represented would also be disgraced.
If he joined the Qingyun Sect, it would also be a disgrace to the Xi Liang Dynasty.
Prince Xi Liang, the peerless genius who ranked first on the Hidden Dragon List, finally joined the Da Xia Dynasty's Qingyun Sect.
If this matter was spread out, it would definitely be a blow and disgrace to the Xi Liang Dynasty's face.
And this was also something that everyone liked to see.
Moreover, if Ji Qinglan became a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, it was equivalent to saying goodbye to the mortal world.
It was even equivalent to becoming a person of the Da Xia Dynasty. The throne of the Xi Liang Dynasty would have nothing to do with him.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look up at the 3,000 physiques that made them very unhappy.
If Ji Qinglan came from the Qingyun Sect, it would be much more comfortable to watch.
Li Yu's words made Ji Qinglan hesitate. If he lost, would he really have to join their sect? This was simply a humiliation.
"No, he wants to use this strange bet to shake my determination to win."
"He wants me to give up the fight because I'm afraid of failure. This is a psychological attack. I can't be fooled!"
Ji Qinglan thought.
"Oh, you don't dare to challenge our Great Xia Dynasty with just this little bit of skill!" Li Yu goaded.
"That's right....................................
........... to..
.........................................
. "Following the principle of watching a show, the crowd started to make a ruckus.
Although Ji Qinglan's state of mind was good, he was naturally unhappy to be mocked by so many people.
Moreover, he didn't think that he would lose. Instead, he felt that Li Yu was playing an empty fort strategy with him.
"Hmph, why wouldn't I dare? But I'm not interested in your life!" Ji Qinglan said coldly.
"Then tell me, what do you want?" Li Yu asked back.
"The Four-Eyed Bird!" Ji Qinglan said. He was most unhappy about the additional reward that the Heavenly Dao List gave to Li Yu.
Therefore, he wanted to snatch the Four-Eyed Bird from Li Yu's hands.
"Okay!
Deal! "Li Yu agreed readily. He immediately jumped onto the stage and said," Come, let's begin! "
"Your Highness …" The cold-looking woman still wanted to persuade him.
However, Ji Qinglan waved his hand and said sternly, "Yu Feng, there's no need to say anymore. I will not lose!"
"Haha, everyone here heard it. If Ji Qinglan loses, he will have to enter my Qing Yun Sect. If I lose, the Four-Eyed Bird rewarded by the Heavenly Dao List will belong to Ji Qinglan!" Li Yu repeated the bet and said loudly.
"That's right, that's right. We all heard it!" Everyone agreed.
"Ji Qinglan, you don't have any objections right?" Li Yu looked at Ji Qinglan.
"No objections!" Ji Qinglan said coldly.
"Your Highness, I'll have to trouble you to be our witness again!" Li Yu looked at Murong Xingqiao.
"Okay!" Murong Xingqiao smiled and nodded her head.
She was also in a very good mood right now.
She knew very well that Li Yu would definitely win. In a while, she would have to see how Ji Qinglan would deal with the situation after he lost.
If Ji Qinglan, the most powerful prince of the Xi Liang dynasty and the best candidate for the future Crown Prince, really joined a sect of the Da Xia dynasty, it would be very interesting!
Of course, she also knew that this matter wasn't that simple. However, today's competition would become an indelible stain on Ji Qinglan's reputation, and even the Xi Liang dynasty's.
"Hehe, this is going to be interesting!" Yi Caidie's beautiful eyes flashed with a smile. Her heart was filled with anticipation.
"Alright, let's begin!" Li Yu hooked his finger at Ji Qinglan.
"Aren't you going to draw your sword?" Ji Qinglan gripped the Inversed-Scale Sword and asked in a low voice.
"I don't need a sword to deal with you!" Li Yu smiled faintly. However, in Ji Qinglan's eyes, this smile was filled with mockery.
"Anyone can talk big. Let's see if you have what it takes!" Ji Qinglan roared angrily and made the first move.
He swung his sword. Sword Qi swept out, transforming into countless sword shadows that filled the entire arena.
It was as if the space was being torn apart, making it impossible for anyone to dodge.
His gaze was sharper than a sword, and his aura was more threatening than a sword ray.
His aura was completely locked onto Li Yu, not giving Li Yu any chance to dodge!
However, at that moment, Li Yu was still standing in his original position. His voice was like a ghost's as it rang out behind him.
"You've lost!"
"Whoosh!"
Ji Qinglan's hair stood on end. However, before he could react, the Inversed-Scale Sword in his hand was snatched away by Li Yu.
At the same time, his entire body was sent flying by an extremely terrifying force.
With a loud boom, he crashed heavily into the light barrier of the formation.
Finally, he fell off the arena with a loud thud.
The entire process happened in the blink of an eye.
It happened so quickly that the audience below the arena did not even see what happened. Ji Qinglan was already lying outside the arena.
Whoosh —
After a brief moment of silence, the entire plaza was in an uproar.
Ji Qinglan lay on the ground. His expression was blank, and his eyes were empty.
He looked like a salted fish!
"Your Highness, are you alright?" Feng Yu instantly rushed over and helped Ji Qinglan up.
However, Ji Qinglan's soul seemed to have been knocked out of his body and had yet to return.
His eyes were lifeless, and his expression was blank. He kept muttering, "Impossible, impossible!"
"Heavens, Li Yu is so powerful!"
"This is unbelievable. Ji Qinglan was defeated just like that!"
"Li Yu's strength is a little ridiculous!"
Countless people who witnessed Li Yu's strength for the first time sighed in amazement.
However, after the initial shock, a series of resentful voices resounded in the plaza.
"This must be the fastest duel in history. In the blink of an eye, Ji Qinglan was defeated!"
"Hey, hey, did anyone see what just happened?"
"It's over just like that!
I didn't see anything! "
"That's it? Damn, Ji Qinglan is so useless. I came all the way here, and you're done in just a second!"
"That's right. He's even more useless than Brother Qianqian!"
The complaints were like a tsunami, echoing in the square.
Meanwhile, the people from the major sects and families who already knew about Li Yu's strength saw Li Yu defeat Ji Qinglan with one move.
They could not help but feel excited.
Especially when they saw Ji Qinglan's doubtful expression.
They could not help but want to laugh.
It was obvious that Li Yu had shocked Ji Qinglan greatly.
The high-spirited, confident, and proud Prince Xi Liang.
The peerless prodigy who had challenged all the prodigies from the various countries and had yet to be defeated.
However, he could not even withstand one move from Li Yu and was knocked out of the arena.
The area of the shadow was probably larger than Huaxia.
