Ganged Up on Right from the Start
In one corner of the audience seating around the Bluestone Square, stood the trio of Wu Qing, Lu Zimo, and Jiang Qin from the Myriad Sword Pavilion.
At this moment, Lu Zimo has become the focus of attention for his fellow students.
However, at this moment, he was no longer as smug as he had been in Gulan City; instead, he looked embarrassed.
"Senior Brother Lu, is this what you meant by Feng Qing'er no longer fighting for the Wind Lightning Pavilion?"
Jiang Qin's eyes held a hint of disdain.
What terrible friends! What terrible top-secret information!
She was so excited before she came!
"Junior Brother Lu, your so-called friends from the Wind Lightning Pavilion are a bit unreliable!"
Wu Qing then chimed in with a sarcastic remark.
As for Lu Zimo, he was now on the verge of tears.
He originally wanted to show off in front of his senior brothers and sisters, but little did he expect that he would almost lose himself in the process.
"Ahem~, um, Junior Sister Jiang, Senior Brother Lu, it was my fault for making bad friends! Don't worry, after this Four Pavilions Assembly, I will definitely cut off all ties with that guy!"
Lu Zimo could only awkwardly make a promise at this point.
He never expected his friend to lie to him!
Now I've made a huge fool of myself in front of my fellow students.
At the same time, not only the three from the Myriad Sword Pavilion, but also many others who had previously heard rumors about Feng Qing'er and Wind Lightning Pavilion, all showed expressions of "I've fallen for their trap."
They never expected that Wind Lightning Pavilion would be so cunning, spreading such false information to fool them!
But in reality, Wind Lightning Pavilion was also wronged!
Feng Qing'er had indeed practically left the Wind Lightning Pavilion earlier, but who told Xiao Lin to Grandson-Trapping?
That's why Tian Huangzi brought Feng Qing'er back to the Wind Lightning Pavilion.
As a result, the rumor truly became a rumor!
However, it's impossible for the Leadership of the Wind Lightning Pavilion to come forward and explain such matters.
Furthermore, after the chaotic battle mode of the Four Pavilions Assembly began, a figure also came and sat down next to Thunder Venerable.
Just as the Leadership of the Wind Lightning Pavilion were about to rise and pay their respects to this figure, the other party simply waved his hand casually, indicating that the others did not need to make a fuss.
Seeing this, the other Leadership the Wind Lightning Pavilion continued to sit and watch the match below.
The only one who could command such treatment from the Leadership the Wind Lightning Pavilion was naturally Tian Huangzi.
At this moment, Tian Huangzi naturally spotted Xiao Yan among the many participants below.
"Xiao Yan, please don't blame me. All of this was forced upon me by your grandfather, the Palace Master. I'm just an employee! I hope you won't blame me when you learn the truth!"
Upon noticing Xiao Yan, Tian Huangzi's lips curled into a playful smile.
"However, to be honest, as the Palace Master's youngest grandson, I also want to see why you receive different Palace Master from your two older brothers!"
With Tian Huangzi's intelligence, he could naturally sense Xiao Lin's special care for Xiao Yan.
Otherwise, why would their own Palace Master have brought the two brothers, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace for training, while leaving Xiao Yan, the youngest grandson, alone outside?
This is utterly unreasonable!
Therefore, although Tian Huangzi was sent by Xiao Lin to "make things difficult" for Xiao Yan, he was actually very curious about Xiao Yan himself.
Therefore, he had already "spoken the door" to both Wind Lightning Pavilion and Feng Qing'er.
If you encounter Xiao Yan, don't hold back, beat him to a pulp!
With his current strength, he is naturally confident that he can take control of the situation!
Therefore, there's no need to worry that Feng Qing'er and the others will actually kill Xiao Yan.
However, he would be very disappointed if he had to take action just to face such a challenge!
At this moment, Xiao Yan, standing on the Azure Square below, had no idea that he had become the protagonist of this Four Pavilions Assembly!
His original plan was to keep a low profile for the time being.
But it seems that it's not allowed right now...
"Now that everyone is on the field, the competition officially begins!"
Once seated, Thunder Venerable saw that everyone present was present and stopped talking. He raised his head, waved his hand, and his soft voice echoed in the ears of everyone in the room.
As soon as Thunder Venerable finished speaking, the atmosphere in the square suddenly tensed up. Fifty-five pairs of eyes scanned each other, their gazes filled with wariness.
In this chaotic situation, whoever can stay in place the longest will be invincible. However, most people know that this selection process is extremely rigorous and cruel.
Of course, this is just the thinking of those who lack the strength, who simply want to drag things out until the very end.
But the top players don't think that way.
Furthermore, many of these figures seemed to have already locked onto their targets.
Almost immediately after Thunder Venerable announced the start of the match, they all rushed in one direction at the same time.
That direction is where Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran are!
"The Wind Lightning Pavilion has made its move? I'll watch and see... I'd like to see what abilities you have that make this Xiao Yan Young Master value you so much!"
Seeing this, Feng Qing'er raised an eyebrow and immediately realized something.
This also made her temporarily abandon the idea of directly causing trouble for Xiao Yan.
After all, given her arrogance, she wouldn't stoop to joining forces with others to deal with Xiao Yan!
Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Feng Qing'er decided to clear the number of people on the field first!
"Call out"
Feng Qing'er moved; she launched an attack on the person closest to her.
At the same time, Mu Qingluan, Tang Ying, and Wang Chen also made the same move as Feng Qing'er.
However, Xiao Yan on the other side was dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Why did a dozen or so people gang up on him as soon as the competition started, even though he was trying to keep a low profile?
Is it because he's handsome and has female companions that he's envied?
"What's going on? Xiao Yan, you didn't do anything naughty with me on your back these past two weeks, did you?"
Nalan Yanran was also looking at Xiao Yan with a strange expression.
This guy, he always manages to become the center of attention wherever he goes!
Wouldn't I be incredibly unlucky to be with him?
"I'm innocent! We've been together every day for the past two weeks since I came to the Wind Lightning Pavilion, haven't we? I haven't had time to go out and cause trouble, let alone get discovered!"
Looking at the dozen or so people closing in from all sides, Xiao Yan felt extremely frustrated.
But since they've come looking for trouble, he's not going to back down.
They're just a bunch of guys whose highest cultivation level is no more than Seven-Star Dou Emperor; he doesn't even consider them a threat!
So what are your plans next?
Seeing that Xiao Yan's expression seemed genuine, Nalan Yanran couldn't help but ask.
"Fine, let them gang up on me then. I'll just be more high-profile and take on a whole group of them by myself! As for you, Yanran, judging from your eyes just now, you seem to have someone you want to fight, right?"
After the initial frustration, Xiao Yan shrugged, essentially accepting his fate.
"Huh? You found out?"
Hearing Xiao Yan say that, Nalan Yanran raised an eyebrow and asked in return.
"Of course, I'm your fiancé! Go ahead, I'll finish this quickly!"
At this moment, Xiao Yan also teased Nalan Yanran.
"Okay, then be careful!"
Nalan Yanran blushed slightly, but still nodded.
"Call out"
Immediately, Nalan Yanran flashed away and left the encirclement of the dozen or so people.
Seeing this, the dozen or so people didn't stop them.
Their only target is Xiao Yan!
