A Draw

Perhaps it's because Tang Yu's words were too shameless.

Ning Qingyan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, even doubting her own ears, before confirming it again.

What are you talking about?

"I said we can have a duel in a more friendly way that won't hurt our feelings or damage our clothes, which is wrestling."

Tang Yu rubbed his hands together, somewhat embarrassed.

Although people might think he's weird for saying this, he genuinely doesn't want to hurt feelings.

Nangong Ying stared wide-eyed at Tang Yu.

What is this guy trying to do???

After confirming that she hadn't misheard, Ning Qingyan was somewhat bewildered, then flew into a rage.

"As expected of a fiend from the Joyous Union Sect, shameless, vile, despicable, and vile!"

"Who are you calling a demon? How come anyone from my Joyous Union Sect is a demon? You think only your Jade Maiden Sect is Yu Jie?"

Hearing Ning Qingyan repeatedly refer to the Joyous Union Sect as a demon or something like that...

Nangong Ying was also itching to try it herself, and said with a displeased expression.

"Besides, what kind of skill is it to bully my junior brother? He's only been cultivating for less than a month. How dare you, the young sect leader of the Jade Maiden Sect, do such a thing?"

She still had a deep impression of Ning Qingyan.

The other party is Fang Meiyun's personal disciple and a genius cultivator who is being groomed by the Jade Maiden Sect.

As long as one's cultivation level is high enough, taking over the position of the next sect leader is a sure thing.

However, if we're talking about artistic level...

Both she and Ning Qingyan were at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, so it was hard to say who would win if they really fought.

"Yes, what kind of skill is it to bully a novice cultivator like me? Your Jade Maiden Sect is so righteous, then you come and take off your clothes and wrestle with my senior sister."

Tang Yu, standing to the side, wholeheartedly agreed.

He loves watching girls fight, like when one girl tears my clothes or another girl rips my skirt.

"Shameless!"

Hearing Tang Yu still rambling about the wrestling incident, Ning Qingyan almost drew her sword and killed him on the spot.

Nangong Ying blushed slightly and glared at Tang Yu, saying, "Junior Brother!"

"I'm trying to disrupt her mindset."

Tang Yu quickly sent a telepathic message to Nangong Ying to prevent her from mistakenly thinking that she was a lecherous man.

Upon hearing this explanation, Nangong Ying's expression returned to normal. She glanced at Ning Qingyan and then pulled Tang Yu away.

Everyone in the Jade Maiden Sect is mentally ill!

She tried to pull Tang Yu away, but Ning Qingyan insisted on not letting her go.

She came to the Treasure Pavilion today to take care of some business.

As a result, a friend told her that Tang Yu, the famous and super genius of the Joyous Union Sect, had come to the Treasure Pavilion on behalf of the Joyous Union Sect.

So she waited there specifically, ready to avenge her master.

That damned jade scroll painting has now spread throughout the southern part of the Nine Heavens Continent.

Because of this bastard, the reputation of Master and the Jade Maiden Sect has been severely ruined.

Seeing that this guy was determined to block the road and keep pestering me.

Nangong Ying transmitted her voice to Tang Yu.

"Junior brother, if all else fails, you can agree to it first. Pretend to fight her, and I'll help you launch a sneak attack. How about we team up and beat her up?"

One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black.

After spending some time with Tang Yu, Nangong Ying learned a few basic skills.

Tang Yu smiled and shook his head. It was rare for a little sister from the Jade Maiden Sect to come looking for trouble.

It's too unfair to beat someone up and leave.

If the young sect leader of the Jade Maiden Sect were to become a member of the Joyous Union Sect...

Hehehehehehehe.

Tang Yu smiled kindly and looked at Ning Qingyan.

"It's not that I can't fight you, and I can agree to your conditions, but I want to know one thing: you're so eager to avenge your master because you think that old hag was wronged?"

"Of course, you've ruined my master's reputation! Now everyone's looking at the filthy things you've drawn!"

Ning Qingyan said angrily, "I have always regarded my master as my second mother."

Because of that damned jade scroll painting, my master has completely changed lately!

The only solution is to completely eliminate this jade scroll painting.

"When your master scolded me, why didn't you feel that I was wronged?"

Tang Yu countered with a question.

Why did my master scold you?

"Because I didn't join the Jade Maiden Sect and chose to go to the Joyous Union Sect instead, she called me a lewd and shameless person and such. Everyone present that day heard what she said."

"That's because our Jade Maiden Sect and your Joyous Union Sect don't get along well, and she has some prejudice against the Joyous Union Sect."

After Tang Yu said that, Ning Qingyan was clearly less confident.

"So you only allow her to insult me and ruin my reputation, but I can't use my paintings to humiliate her? Is your Jade Maiden Sect so hypocritical?"

Tang Yu asked in return with a look of disdain.

"That's right, that's right. Even if our Joyous Union Sect isn't anything good, your Jade Maiden Sect is at best a hypocrite."

Nangong Ying chimed in from the side.

After hearing what the two said, Ning Qingyan remained silent for a moment before her expression became even more determined.

"As a disciple, I can't just sit idly by and watch my master be humiliated. Let's have a fight! I'll even bring my own troops to fight you!"

"That's a good reason. If I lose, I'll never draw your master again. But what if you lose?"

Tang Yu asked with a smile, thinking to herself that if she lost, she wouldn't draw it.

Anyway, Nangong Ying is in charge of drawing this now; I'll just be a script consultant at most.

"What do you want? As long as you don't cross my bottom line, I'll agree to anything."

Ning Qingyan said coldly, her eyes filled with disdain.

What else could those wicked people from the Joyous Union Sect think about besides such things? Vulgar!

"I haven't decided yet, let's just call and see."

Seeing the woman's eyes, Tang Yu chuckled.

Forcing her to practice dual cultivation with me using such conditions? That's pointless.

It's more likely she'd be the one wanting to pounce on him.

"Okay, let's fight at the Treasure Pavilion's venue then. We can find someone from the Treasure Pavilion to be a witness."

After Ning Qingyan finished speaking, she flew on her sword straight to the nearby Treasure Pavilion.

Tang Yu turned around and followed, with Nangong Ying close behind, whispering.

"Junior brother, are you really going to fight her? This woman is quite formidable; otherwise, the Jade Maiden Sect wouldn't be grooming her as their young sect leader."

Among the younger generation, there are only a handful of people of the same level who can match Ning Qingyan.

"A minor issue."

Tang Yu was full of confidence; fighting across borders was a skill that the protagonist possessed.

As long as the other party is willing to suppress their cultivation level to the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

It wouldn't be difficult to beat her.

After the two arrived at a martial arts arena inside the Treasure Pavilion.

Upon learning that Ning Qingyan, the young sect leader of the Jade Maiden Sect, was going to spar with Tang Yu here.

The cultivators who heard the news gathered around to watch the spectacle.

"Go, Fairy Ning!"

"Fairy Nangong looks beautiful today!"

Why hasn't Senior Tang Yu updated "The Fairy Meiyun's Misfortune" yet?

The monks gathered below the stage began to shout loudly.

There are sycophants who support Ning Qingyan, and there are sycophants who support Nangong Ying.

The rest are just those old perverts urging Tang Yu to update quickly.

Ning Qingyan ignored the support from the many cultivators below the stage.

Nangong Ying waved and greeted the people with a smile.

"More in a few days."

After replying to everyone, Tang Yu gestured for Ning Qingyan to begin.

Before the fight began, Ning Qingyan told the audience about their bet.

After having everyone as witnesses, she suppressed her cultivation level to the early Nascent Soul stage and announced, "It begins!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the longsword in her hand emitted a blinding blue light.

A chilling sword aura emanated from her sword, enveloping the entire arena.

An invisible barrier appeared around the arena, which was the arena's own defensive formation.

Even if cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage wreaked havoc inside, it wouldn't affect the outside world.

With a thought from Ning Qingyan, countless sword energies condensed into thousands of flying swords that swept towards Tang Yu like a tidal wave.

While suppressing his own cultivation level.

She still went all out in her attack, and did not relax her efforts just because Tang Yu's cultivation level was slightly lower than hers.

A prodigy who cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage in such a short time.

Even if they take a shortcut, they are definitely not opponents to be underestimated.

Facing Ning Qingyan's attack.

After Tang Yu formed a hand seal for a moment, a faint red light appeared around his body.

After being enveloped by this light.

The flying swords rained down on him, but they couldn't harm him in the slightest.

Ning Qingyan frowned slightly after seeing Tang Yu easily block her attack.

She tossed the longsword in her hand into the air and then pointed at it with her finger.

The longsword grew to a size of a hundred feet, falling from the sky like a mountain, creating a visually stunning effect.

After realizing the destructive power of this sword strike, Nangong Ying became somewhat nervous.

Tang Yu, however, continued to stroll leisurely, letting the sword fall. The faint red light on his body dimmed for a moment before quickly returning.

After seeing this amazing defensive capability.

Everyone looked surprised.

How could Ning Qingyan, with her full strength, withstand such a powerful attack so easily?

After a full-scale attack.

Ning Qingyan, who had expended a considerable amount of true energy, noticed that the red light surrounding Tang Yu had not yet dissipated.

She couldn't help but ask, "What kind of supernatural power do you possess?"

Tang Yu smiled slightly and said, "This is my unique divine ability, named Pinduoduo!"

I recently researched some offensive techniques.

Tang Yu suddenly realized that she couldn't just hit people; she also had to consider the possibility of accidentally barging into the women's bathroom and getting beaten up.

So he spent some time figuring out Pinduoduo's unique algorithm and combining it with the internal meridian cultivation formations, and finally developed this protective divine power.

You want to kill me? Even 60,000 men might not be able to!

Pinduoduo?

Hearing this name made Ning Qingyan even more wary.

If he truly created this supernatural ability, then his talent is terrifying.

This child must not be allowed to live!

Ning Qingyan then stopped asking questions and thrust her long sword into the martial arts arena.

The already extremely sharp sword energy instantly increased dozens of times.

It completely enveloped the entire arena, like an inverted bowl trapping the two inside.

The surrounding cultivators who were watching the spectacle couldn't even see what was happening inside.

Nangong Ying couldn't see very clearly either, but seeing that Tang Yu remained calm and composed despite Ning Qingyan's all-out attack, she felt a little relieved.

Junior brother is indeed a prodigy!

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn has elapsed.

Standing on the martial arts arena, Ning Qingyan's face was slightly pale, and she looked at Tang Yu with resentment in her eyes.

She had very little true energy left in her body.

Yet they still couldn't break through his defenses.

This made her extremely unwilling!

He wanted to avenge his master, but instead he brought shame upon himself.

"I lost."

Although she was very unwilling, Ning Qingyan still bit her lip and admitted defeat, putting away the magical sword in her hand.

The surrounding sword energy dissipated, and the long-waiting crowd was finally able to see the two people.

Before Ning Qingyan could speak, Tang Yu clasped his hands in greeting and smiled at the crowd below the stage.

"I have benefited greatly from today's battle with Fellow Daoist Ning. We were evenly matched and fought to a draw."

The audience was stunned when they heard that the match was a draw.

Ning Qingyan was also a little confused. What exactly did this guy mean?

He's already admitted defeat, so how can he say it's a draw?
