When Shen Cangsheng, Li Xuantong and the rest saw Luo Li and Jian Wushuang, unconcealable joy surged on their faces. They must have been on tenterhooks for the past few days, fearing that someone would barge in and disturb Mu Chen's cultivation.
Upon entering this place, Luo Li's glass-like beautiful eyes shot towards Mu Chen, who had his eyes tightly shut and was in a state of cultivation. At this moment, the somewhat worried expression on her face started to gradually relax.
"He's undergoing his Spirit Disaster?" Wen Qingxuan looked at Mu Chen in astonishment. She must have sensed the peculiar ripples.
Shen Cangsheng and the rest nodded their heads.
"Are you guys alright?" asked Luo Li.
Shen Cangsheng and the rest shook their heads and bitterly smiled. "It's all thanks to Mu Chen that he found this place. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to escape unscathed. Fang Yun isn't someone easy to deal with. The Divine Artifact in his hand is extremely powerful. Mu Chen had to pay a great price to defeat it. But it's also because of that that his Spirit Disaster is a little more dangerous."
Generally speaking, one would have to adjust their condition to their peak when undergoing a Spirit Disaster. However, Mu Chen's condition wasn't at its peak due to the intense battle with Fang Yun. Under such circumstances, it was clearly more dangerous for him to undergo a Spirit Disaster.
"Fang Yun." A cold light flashed in Luo Li's eyes. She was clearly a little angry.
"I'm afraid that Ji Xuan is the one who instructed Fang Yun to make a move against Mu Chen. That fellow is too scheming. He's trying his best to delay us so that Fang Yun can deal with Mu Chen," said Wen Qingxuan with a cold face.
Shen Cangsheng and the rest nodded their heads, before shooting a look at Mu Chen, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, before saying, "I don't know how many days Mu Chen's secluded cultivation will last. Looks like during this period of time, the distance that we've managed to close with great difficulty will once again be pulled apart by Ji Xuan."
Right now, they were ranked third with around 110,000 points, while Ji Xuan was still first.
Their points were gradually approaching 140,000 points. If Mu Chen's closed-door cultivation continued for a few more days, the gap would only grow bigger and bigger until it reached an irrecoverable point.
A shadow of pondering surfaced on Luo Li's lovable face. As of now, everyone could see the fight between Mu Chen and Ji Xuan. Clearly, she didn't want others to look down on Mu Chen.
"Qingxuan, I would like to ask you to guard this place for the next few days until Mu Chen successfully passes through his Spirit Disaster." Luo Li briefly pondered.
She then looked at Wen Qingxuan.
"What about you?"
"What about you?" Wen Qingxuan was startled.
"I will bring them away for the time being.
"I'll bring them away for the time being. At the very least, I have to protect Mu Chen's ranking." Luo Li said with a faint smile.
To make up for your loss, half of the points that we've obtained will be given to you guys. "
"Only men like them would risk their lives for this kind of ranking."
Wen Qingxuan flung her lips aside. "Don't worry. No matter what, Mu Chen has helped me before, so I will naturally help him."
"Then I'll have to thank you." Luo Li sweetly smiled.
When Shen Cangsheng heard that Luo Li wanted to bring them out, he was a little stunned. Although he knew that Luo Li wasn't simple, he still treated her as a girl in his heart.
However, he still treated her as a girl in his heart. At this moment, Luo Li had to take up the mantle, which made him feel exceptionally ashamed.
"Don't worry. Luo Li will lead the team.
She won't be any weaker than Mu Chen. "
A smile appeared on Li Xuantong's face. Although Luo Li hadn't revealed her true strength from the start to the end, he knew that the girl before him was absolutely not weaker than Mu Chen.
"That's good too. When Mu Chen wakes up, we'll give him a pleasant surprise." Su Xuan covered her mouth as she smiled.
Shen Cangsheng could only nod with a bitter smile.
Wen Qingxuan moved closer to Luo Li and whispered, "It seems that your goal this time isn't small."
Luo Li tucked her hair behind her ear with her slender hand. Her movements were so beautiful that even Wen Qingxuan felt a little moved. Soon after, a faint smile appeared on the girl's face. She said, "I'm going to take back Ji Xuan's first place, and my target is Fang Yun."
Wen Qingxuan was shocked. She knew that Luo Li's goal wasn't small, but she didn't expect her ambition to be so great. She was actually planning to take away Ji Xuan's first place. Moreover, Fang Yun wasn't easy to deal with either. He had a low quality god artifact.
"Don't worry."
Luo Li smiled as if she knew what she was worried about.
"Then, be careful." Wen Qingxuan could only nod her head.
After the discussion, Luo Li stayed for the next half a day and no longer dilly-dallying, she brought Shen Cangsheng, Li Xuantong and the rest and left the forest.
Looking at Luo Li's departing figure, a smile appeared on Wen Qingxuan's face. From the looks of it, the Great Spiritual Academy Tournament wouldn't be peaceful for the next few days. Perhaps everyone would start to understand exactly how astonishing of a strength this absolutely beautiful girl, who had always been quietly following behind Mu Chen, actually possessed.
Wen Qingxuan lazily extended her slender jade-like arms, before walking back to Mu Chen's side. Propping up her cheeks with her jade-like hands, she faintly curled her lips towards the latter, before speaking out with a tone that wasn't without some jealousy, "You're truly lucky to actually be able to make Luo Li do such a thing for you."
Three days swiftly passed by.
During these three days, Mu Chen still hadn't woken up. However, his body was getting redder and redder. The high temperature that was being emitted from his body had even caused the air to distort. His handsome face had turned a little sinister under the intense pain.
Clearly, he still hadn't passed through his Spirit Disaster.
Facing this situation, Wen Qingxuan, who had been protecting him, was also helpless. After all, one could only rely on one's own strength to pass through such a disaster. Others couldn't help one in the slightest.
However, what made Wen Qingxuan feel relieved was that although Mu Chen's face was distorted from the intense pain, the Spiritual Energy ripples in his body didn't show any signs of going berserk. Clearly, he still maintained a trace of clarity and didn't allow his consciousness to be devoured.
Under this situation, as long as Mu Chen could persevere, it would only be a matter of time before he passed through his Spirit Disaster.
During the three days that Mu Chen was undergoing his Spirit Disaster, a considerable commotion was set off in the Great Spiritual Academy Tournament. Naturally, that commotion was caused by Luo Li.
Luo Li led his team out. However, he didn't act like Mu Chen and cleanse the teams that were ranked 8th and below. Instead, he had directly targeted Fang Yun, who was ranked 6th.
Such an action was undoubtedly extremely daring. After all, everyone knew that the Top 8 teams were definitely the pinnacle teams in the Great Spiritual Academy Tournament. Those teams all had extremely powerful experts, especially someone like Fang Yun, who wielded a genuine Divine Artifact.
Therefore, when the news of the battle between Luo Li and Fang Yun spread out, it instantly caused a commotion in the Great Spiritual Academy Tournament. Compared to the battle between Mu Chen and Ji Xuan, the commotion wouldn't be any weaker.
In the end, such a startling confrontation had truly unfolded.
That battle was extremely intense. Everyone could see the massive cauldron soaring into the sky from afar. As divine light blossomed, the roars of dragons and tigers resounded across the horizon, causing the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth to boil.
Although the cauldron was powerful, when the last clear and resonant sword cry rang out, everyone could see that the massive cauldron was instantly suppressed by the terrifying Sword Intent that swept out.
Everyone who was watching the battle was able to see a spectacular scene.
Boundless Sword Intent condensed in the sky, forming into an earth-shattering sea of swords. The sea of swords whistled past like a storm. Anything that obstructed its path was shattered into pieces by the storm of Sword Aura. Even the Low Rank Divine Artifact, the Dragon-Tiger Cauldron, that even Mu Chen couldn't break through, gradually dimmed under the sea of swords. In the end, it was ruthlessly slashed down from the sky by a massive sword light.
The sea of swords that blotted the sky dissipated. In the end, the sea of swords turned into a cold longsword that streaked across the horizon and landed in the fair hand of the young girl. The Spiritual Energy and Sword Intent that even the heavens and earth were unable to endure had completely dissipated.
Poof.
Everyone saw Fang Yun spurt out a mouthful of blood at this moment. His complexion instantly turned pale. Evidently, he had suffered a serious injury.
There was an outcome to this soul-stirring battle.
In the end, Fang Yun unwillingly handed over his Academy Plaque. A total of 40,000 points were taken away by Luo Li. Thus, the Academy Plaque of Mu Chen's team instantly rose from 110,000 to 150,000, surpassing Ji Xuan, who had 140,000 points.
Thus, the Numero Uno had officially changed owners.
The entire Great Spiritual Academy Tournament was shaken. After such a long time, the Numero Uno had finally welcomed its third owner.
It was also because of this battle that Luo Li's name resounded throughout the entire Great Spiritual Academy Tournament. His fame even showed signs of surpassing Ji Xuan and Mu Chen. After all, compared to them, just based on Luo Li's appearance and temperament, he had the absolute advantage.
Naturally, the most crucial point was still the battle between her and Fang Yun. After all, in the current Great Spiritual Academy Tournament, she was the only one who dared to challenge a team in the Top 8.
After that battle, Fang Yun's team fell out of the Top 8. However, he had genuine ability, after all. In just a day, he had charged to the Numero Uno once again. But this time, he was much more low-profile and did not dare to jump around.
Clearly, his drive had been completely suppressed by Luo Li.
After the Numero Uno had changed owners, everyone was curiously waiting for Ji Xuan's reaction. With the latter's character, he wasn't someone who would hand over the Numero Uno Uno.
Just when everyone was anticipating Ji Xuan's actions, Mu Chen, who had been in seclusion in the depths of the forest, finally opened his tightly shut eyes. In his black pupils, there seemed to be flames rising.
He had finally passed through his Spirit Disaster!
