The night passed, and the three of them bid farewell.
His breakthrough to the late stage of the Cryptic Spirit Realm was purely an accident. It caused a deviation in the compatibility between Qin Shi's body and spirit energy. Because of this, he had been in seclusion in the stone chamber for the past six days, trying his best to adapt to his new body and strengthen his foundation.
On the seventh day, the first rays of the sun shone down, illuminating the Mystical Palace, which was fifty thousand meters above sea level.
Bang!
Qin Shi's black eyes suddenly opened, and a wild yet steady spirit pressure soared into the sky from under his black robe.
"After seven days, I've finally smoothed out all the edges." Flicking his sleeves, Qin Shi raised the corner of his lips, "This time, no one can stop me from rescuing Sister Yu!"
The first rays of the sun shone down, signifying that the finals were about to begin.
The eight people in the first section received the summons and walked out of the room at the same time. Two Mystical Palace Elders descended from the sky and smiled at the eight people, "Haha, have you all rested well in the Mystical Palace for the past seven days?"
"Of course. With the martial arts from the Scripture Pavilion, our chances of winning have increased a bit."
The eight people responded. Such flattery made Yan Feng feel complacent again, and he didn't forget to brag to the others before leaving.
The finals were about to begin, so they didn't waste any more time. Under the guidance of the two elders, they came to the central square of the Mystical Palace. This square was extremely wide, at least ten thousand meters wide. There was an arena with a radius of a thousand meters in the center, and there was a banner above the arena. As the banner fluttered in the wind, four eye-catching words could be seen from time to time: Honour Competition.
After seven days of selection, the eight contestants below the second section had advanced to the next round. Nangong Bing, Taishi Tinghua, Huangpu Junyan, and Hu Hao of the Blue Dragon Sect had all advanced to the next round. The remaining four were all juniors of the various overlord forces, and their strength was all above the Cryptic Spirit Realm.
Including the eight people in the first section, there were a total of sixteen people. The remaining sixteen people would fight one on one on this huge arena to determine the champion.
"Haha, how lively."
The sixteen of them stepped onto the arena. The surroundings of the arena had already been surrounded by tens of millions of disciples of the Mystical Palace. Looking at the crowd, one couldn't see the end of it. Clamor, screams, all sorts of things could be heard.
Qin Shi couldn't help but smack his lips. Even he couldn't help but feel his blood boiling in this situation.
"Oh!!
Come on, Senior Brother Yan Feng!
Senior Brother Yan Feng is the most handsome! "
"Defeat that Shi Qin and avenge the elders!"
"Senior Brother Lin Xiao, you can do it too! Bring glory to the Mystical Palace!" A group of brainless female disciples of the Mystical Palace screamed like crazy.
Immersed in self-intoxication, Yan Feng ruthlessly walked to Qin Shi's side. "Stinking brat, this is a real fight. I want to see how you're going to take advantage of the situation."
"It's hard to say. God has always been good to me!" Qin Shi replied disapprovingly.
"Alright, then you better hold on for a few more rounds. When it's time to fight with me, I will naturally let you understand that in front of strength, relying on your bullsh * t luck is useless!" Yan Feng sternly reprimanded before moving away from Qin Shi.
After Yan Feng left, Nangong Bing and Taishi Ting Hua happened to walk forward. As they walked past each other, Taishi Ting Hua rolled her eyes and said to Qin Shi, "Why is this Yan Feng always going against you? He's so annoying."
"He's just a clown. Let him say whatever he wants. Why do I have to take it to heart?" Qin Shi didn't care and still had a faint smile on his face.
On the side, Nangong Bing had stayed in the Desolate Forest for many years. She had experienced real life and death battles there, so she was much more mature than her peers. She kindly advised, "Brother Qin Shi, I know you have a lot of trump cards, but no matter what, this Yan Feng is also a Heaven Realm, while you're only at the Middle Cryptic Realm. There's a difference of three realms. If you meet him, you have to be more careful."
If it was a few days ago, the Heaven Realm would indeed give Qin Shi a headache. But now that he had broken through to the Late Cryptic Realm, a normal First Level Heaven Realm was not worth his attention. However, Nangong Bing had good intentions. He didn't want to reveal his breakthrough too early, so he calmly nodded, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Nangong Bing heaved a sigh of relief after getting a response.
Swoosh!
At this moment, the calmness on Qin Shi's face suddenly froze, turning into vigilance and seriousness. His black eyes looked past Nangong Bing's shoulder and saw Xue Bin standing behind her.
Among the people present, Xue Bin was the only one that could make Qin Shi feel fear.
Boom!
As the two stared at each other, a rainbow-like explosion rose up around the stage. Then, silver light shot out from the ground in all directions, forming a sturdy fortress.
Similarly dressed in crimson clothes, three thousand white hairs fell down from the sky like a waterfall. Hua Ling's appearance pushed the atmosphere to its peak, and at the same time, the curtains of the competition were drawn.
After the fortress was stabilized, Hua Ling landed in front of the golden seat specially prepared for her. Her expression was still indifferent as she slowly said, "I hereby announce that the finals of the Tournament of Honour will now officially begin. The matches will be conducted according to the rankings!"
"Oh!!!"
The crowd was boiling, and everyone was waiting with bated breath.
Several elders began to arrange the schedule of the matches. The first round of matches was very simple. The person with the best result in the first group of eight would fight against the person with the best result in the second group of eight.
Because of this, Xue Bin would fight in the first round, Little Mi Cai would fight in the second round, and Qin Shi would fight in the sixth round, so he could relax for a while.
After a series of complicated procedures, the first match immediately began. Xue Bin was still dressed elegantly, standing on the stage with his hands clasped behind his back.
The person fighting against him was Huangpu Junyan.
Seeing this scene, Nangong Bing, who was below the stage, could not help but clap her hands and laugh, "This is interesting. Luckily, I purposely held back and got the third place. Otherwise, if I went all out and snatched Huangpu Junyan's first place, wouldn't I have to fight against Xue Bin the moment I got on the stage?"
Hearing this, Qin Shi could not help but frown, "Brother Nangong, you are third in the promotion round?"
"Yes, what about it?"
Qin Shi's heart sank, and his thoughts spun, "So, Nangong Bing's opponent is Yan Feng?"
Thinking about this, he suddenly looked to the side, and inadvertently noticed that Yan Feng was also looking in his direction, and the ferocious look in his eyes was self-evident.
"This is bad."
Cursing in his heart, Qin Shi looked at Nangong Bing's face and wanted to say something, but stopped. He knew that Nangong Bing usually looked easygoing and steady, but as the young master of the Nangong family, the pride in her heart was a bottom line that could not be crossed.
Nangong Bing saw through Qin Shi's thoughts, and put her hand on Qin Shi's shoulder, smiling, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Even if I can't beat Yan Feng, I won't let him win too easily. Just treat it as me helping you exhaust the enemy's strength."
Hearing this, Qin Shi relaxed a lot. It was naturally for the best that Nangong Bing could think this way. Because of this, he was silent for a while, and with a flip of his palm, a Five Pattern Devil Talisman was passed to Nangong Bing, "Brother Nangong, this is for you."
"Five Pattern Devil Talisman?"
Taishi Tinghua pursed her cherry lips, and her heart could not help but tremble. Even a descendant of a prestigious family like her had never seen such a thing before, "No wonder the family told me to try my best to have a good relationship with him …"
"Looks like in these few months, Brother Qin Qin's Spiritual Energy has improved a lot again."
Nangong Bing already knew that Qin Shi was a Talisman Magician, but when she saw the Five Pattern Devil Talisman, she could not help but admire it in her heart. She did not stand on ceremony with Qin Shi, "Thank you, Brother Qin Qin."
"Don't mention it."
Qin Shi smiled and shook his head. He had a good impression of Nangong Bing, especially when he escaped from Leng City, Nangong Bing did not hesitate to get seriously injured for him.
Although Qin Shi wasn't some great saint who saved people from suffering, he had always treated his friends with kindness that could be repaid with a gushing spring.
Bang!
Just as the few people below were about to raise their heads to look at the arena, a loud sound suddenly broke the silence. Immediately, they saw that on the barrier a thousand meters away from the arena, a figure in a sorry state was imprinted on it. His body was covered with blood, and he was unconscious.
Qin Shi was shocked, "Huangpu Junyan?"
"What happened?"
The crowd widened their eyes. When they looked away, they saw Xue Bin standing opposite Huangpu Junyan with his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face. He looked around and said, "Judge, shouldn't you announce the end of the battle?"
The judge was an elder of the Mystical Palace. He was stunned for a long time next to the arena before he recovered and said, "First round, Xue Bin wins!"
"Gulp …"
The sound of throats rolling resounded below the arena. The crowd was puzzled.
"W-what just happened?"
"I don't know. Just when Black Light was idle, the Huangpu Family was defeated. Who is this person, so strong!"
"That's for sure, he is the son of the Imperial Preceptor!"
In the discussion, Qin Shi's expression gradually turned pale. Nangong Bing and Taishi Tinghua were still in a daze. This sudden shock was really difficult for them to accept.
"Looks like he wants to give us a show of strength."
Qiu Diao curled his lips in dissatisfaction. There were not many people present who saw Xue Bin's movements clearly, but Qiu Diao was definitely one of them. No matter how fast he was, he could not escape from his cold eagle eyes.
The first battle ended quickly, and the second battle immediately began. The second battle was Little Mi Cai's turn, and she had been waiting at the side for a long time.
Qin Shi originally thought that if Nangong Bing took third place, then the second place would definitely belong to Taishi Tinghua. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, Taishi Tinghua was standing peacefully below the arena and had no intention of going up. He asked in confusion, "I say, why aren't you going up? Don't tell me you want to admit defeat directly?"
Hearing this, Nangong Bing giggled at the side. "Brother Qin Shi, don't tell me you think this Tiger Lady is second?"
"Isn't she?"
"Of course not. In the preliminary round, she got eighth place and started to gloat. In the end, in the fight for the top eight, she was instantly defeated by a nobody. Now that I think of that scene, I can't help but laugh … Haha." Nangong Bing laughed as she said.
"Shut up!" Taishi Tinghua said shyly. "What do you know?
What I'm doing is called being quick-witted. I looked at the sky at night and calculated with my fingers. I guessed this method of battle, so I deliberately got eighth place. What do you know? "
"Yes, yes, you're so quick-witted!"
Listening to the conversation between the two, Qin Shi couldn't help but be speechless. In the end, he shook his head helplessly. This was also good, it wouldn't make things difficult for him.
In Little Mi Cai's dictionary, she never knew what was called forbearance. The person she was fighting with was a man called Chu Jiangfan. His strength was at the late stage of the Mystical Spirit Realm, and he was not far from Nangong Bing and Taishi Tinghua. The problem was that his luck was really not good. Out of all the people he could meet, he just had to meet Little Mi Cai.
In the end, before he even made his move, he heard Little Mi Cai's delicate roar from afar. "Quick, quick, Mo Planet Calamity!"
Suddenly, the green sky enveloped the ink-black void. Tens of millions of stars flashed, and soon after, it was like a meteor shower that covered the sky and earth, instantly killing Chu Jiangfan.
In that short instant, the Mystical Palace's disciples outside the arena cried out in shock. "It's Mo Planet Calamity?
Isn't that the strongest martial art in the third floor of the Scripture Depository? "
"It's true?
I heard that this martial art requires the support of a great foundation of spirit energy. Even many Heaven Realm Elders have suffered because of this after they cultivated it. Not only did she succeed in cultivating it, she … She can actually use it so freely? "
The cries of shock were endless. Qin Shi also felt his throat heating up, and he couldn't help but cough a few times. This should be the martial art that Little Mi Cai found in the Scripture Depository. But right now, he only wanted to know what was the meaning of 'quick, quick, quick coax'.
Who can tell me what kind of mnemonic chant this is?
Let me recommend a book for girls. Currently ranked first in the first round of the first round. The writing style is smooth, and Xiao Qian personally confirmed it. Everyone can go read it when you have the time.
