The battle between cultivators in the Qi Refining Period is very boring for most people.
Summon a fireball.
Summon a gust of wind.
Summon some magic balls.
Considering the appearance, it is no more wonderful than mortals who use thunderbolt firecrackers, rockets and toxic smoke in battles.
However, Bai Lian is different. Although her strength is comparable to that of a Golden Core Stage cultivator, she still watches it with interest.
In her previous life, she liked watching ants fight, and could watch them for half a day with great interest.
Xiao Jinse is criticized after she walks onto the stage.
The main reason is that there are many people who envy her.
"We are all garbage. Why didn't Martial Sister Bai Lian choose me?"
"I lost my father at the age of one and my mother at the age of two, my life is more miserable than Xiao Jinse's. Why didn't Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian choose me? Sob sob…"
"Didn't your mother send you money a few days ago?"
"……"
A group of people looked at the "liar" with cold eyes.
"Xiao Jinse is so unlucky to meet Shao Zhou in the first round. Shao Zhou was already on the fourth floor of the Qi Refining Period before entering the Duxian sect."
"No way, I'm also in the same group as him. Will I also meet him?"
"What're you thinking? With your strength, you should worry if you can win the first round before considering that."
On the fourth floor of the Qi Refining Period?
Xiao Jinse knew the real strength of Shao Zhou at once. She was a little nervous at first, but now she is not worried at all. Because with Martial Sister Bai Lian's help, she was about to break through the seventh floor of the Qi Refining Period.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is right.
Go your own way and let the prattlers prattle as much as they want!
Gong!
"The competition begins!"
Loud cries pierced the challenge arena.
Xiao Jinse launched an attack immediately. Shao Zhou was completely at a loss. He took out his soft sword, which was wrapped around his waist as a belt.
Don't worry, play with her first! Shao Zhou thought so.
Anyway, Xiao Jinse is Martial Sister Bai Lian's second Martial Sister. He was afraid that if he beat Xiao Jinse too hard and too easily, Martial Sister Bai Lian would hate him.
After all, Saints are also human beings.
"Younger Martial Sister Xiao, the sword in my hand is named Wave… Eh?"
While Shao Zhou would like to say a few more words. Xiao Jinse's Blowing Snow Sword was already stabbing at his head.
This woman really has no manners!
Shao Zhou immediately waved his sword.
Although it's a soft sword, once he injects his spirit power into it, it will immediately become much harder than steel.
Ding.
The sharp blades collided with each other, and the clashing spirit Qi raised a cold wind on the challenge arena.
As expected, Shao Zhou blocked Xiao Jinse's attack.
"Not bad."
Bai Lian nodded with satisfaction. Xiao Jinse had been fighting against the Jade Rabbit these days. She was worried that she would not adapt to competing with humans.
It seems that her second younger Martial Sister will graduate soon.
Soon she can live a safe and carefree life.
Meanwhile, Xiao Jinse had completely blocked all surrounding sound.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian said that she shouldn't waste her energy in the preliminary contest. Her right hand pressed forward, and Shao Zhou's right foot slipped under the terrible force.
"Is this pure power?"
Shao Zhou found that he underestimated Xiao Jinse. It seems that he must show his true skills to avoid being laughed at by others.
Eat this!
Shao Zhou turned around, and the sword in his hand became soft and hard from time to time, setting off a wave of lights all over the challenge arena. For a moment, it looked like heavy snow in the sky.
Poof.
All of a sudden, the sword stabbed towards Xiao Jinse’s heart.
This move is Shao Zhou's trump card.
He was surprised to find that Xiao Jinse didn't dodge or block his sword at all. Was she not afraid of his sword?
Shao Zhou was about to remind Xiao Jinse, but the girl's right hand was slightly raised, and the dark Epee suddenly showed blue and white fluorescence. From a distance, it looked like a bright lightsaber.
Shao Zhou's eyes widened. He felt that his heart had been caught by the sword.
Blowing Snow Sword.
Bang!
The sound broke Shao Zhou's state of mind. The Blowing Snow Sword easily bounced away the sword in his hand. The stirring wind whipped across his hair on his forehead and drew blood.
Feeling the burning pain, he realized. Xiao Jinse's cultivation base was better than his!
"The winner is…"
Shao Zhou yelled and ran down from the stage before the referee announced the winner. His will to fight vanished.
"I'm stupid. I'd have to be an idiot to listen to passersby's bullshit again in the future!"
The onlookers beside the challenge arena looked at each other.
Shao Zhou, what are you doing!
Someone stood in a dignified manner, "She is truly worthy of being the Martial Sister of Bai Lian. Unexpectedly, in just one month, she has increased the strength of a cultivator who has only a low-grade fire-type Spiritual Root to this level!"
"How much effort has she made?"
Xiao Jinse felt warm in her heart. Only after experiencing this month did she learn how much Martial Sister Bai Lian has sacrificed for her.
For a whole month, Martial Sister Bai Lian meditated no more than five times, just to help her improve her cultivation base. She always stayed at the top of the Qiongming Peak. At most, she would occasionally take the Jade Rabbit down the Peak for a walk.
In addition, in the evening, Martial Sister Bai Lian would show her ankles so she gains insight from the Tao Halo. Xiao Jinse could now perfectly draw from memory Martial Sister Bai Lian's feet.
Alas.
It took Martial Sister Bai Lian only one year to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, yet now she wasted a whole month helping her. A great sacrifice!
Xiao Jinse felt a little heavy in her heart.
But after seeing Bai Lian's smile, she could not help but be happy again. She had lived up to the expectations of Martial Sister Bai Lian. There was no doubt that she won the first battle.
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
Xiao Jinse leaned on her epee and looked at Bai Lian quietly.
Bai Lian's lips were slightly open. She was about to give Xiao Jinse a good compliment, and the system task suddenly jumped out.
[Task 1: Praise Xiao Jinse's performance. (Reward: An inferior Spirit Tool - Wind White Silk)]
[Task 2: Be calm, don't praise or scold her. (Reward: a Foundation Establishment Pill)]
[Task 3: Seriously point out Xiao Jinse's shortcomings. (Reward: Focus +2)]
The system will give me an inferior Spirit Tool if I praise Xiao Jinse… Really?
Bai Lian was dumbfounded. There must be a trap!
If she has two or three younger Martial Sisters… will they fight?
Bai Lian didn't dare to think further.
Back to task selection, she didn't dare to choose Task 1, which had an exaggerated reward. The better the reward, the sooner she will die. As for Task 2, she already had many Foundation Establishment Pills, so she might as well take skill points.
"Younger Martial Sister, have you reflected on yourself?" Bai Lian suddenly said.
"Ah?"
Xiao Jinse was stunned.
Bai Lian said solemnly, "What you defeated was only a cultivator whose cultivation base is two levels lower than yours, and he completely underestimated you and didn’t pay attention. Is this something to be happy about?"
Younger Martial Sister, you won't feel resentment for this kind of accusation, right?
Will it be too much? No matter what she thought, Bai Lian's face remained unchanged.
Xiao Jinse immediately lowered her head in shame.
Shame!
Xiao Jinse recalled carefully and found that Martial Sister Bai Lian's comments were not wrong.
She could be higher, faster, and stronger!
If Martial Sister Bai Lian didn't wake her up in time, she would probably be easily defeated in the next battles.
A sword has no eyes, she may get injured, or even die.
Xiao Jinse took a deep breath and sincerely apologized, "Martial Sister Bai Lian, I'm sorry for…"
Bai Lian gently rubbed Xiao Jinse's hair and sighed, "I'm not the one you should apologize to. You should know that you cultivate for yourself, not for me."
Xiao Jinse clenched her teeth, bowed her head and said, "I was wrong…"
Bai Lian shook her head again and said, "No, younger Martial Sister, it's not you. Well, of course it's not me either. It's the world."
Xiao Jinse raised her head and looked at Bai Lian in surprise. Is the world wrong?
Bai Lian said, "Do you remember what I said?"
Xiao Jinse nodded hard.
She would never forget what happened in Castle Peak City that day.
Very good.
Bai Lian smiled happily, "Go and prepare for the next competition. Be calm. I'll wait for the day when you go back to earn your dignity by relying on your own strength."
Xiao Jinse wanted to give Martial Sister Bai Lian a hug. Eventually, she successfully restrained her impulse.
In this world, there is a person waiting for her to shine.
……
"The winner is Xiao Jinse!"
