Facing his junior sister, Tong Qi did not dare let his guard down in the slightest. Almost from the outset, he unleashed the full power of his Seven-Star Fan.
From what he had observed over the past six days, Su Jiu's attacks built in stages, growing stronger the longer she fought.
She liked to begin by probing and studying her opponent, only launching her fierce attacks after she had discovered the patterns in their offensive.
Convinced that he had seen through his junior sister, Tong Qi hardly dared give Su Jiu that opportunity. He launched an explosive offensive almost as soon as the match began.
Even Su Jiu was taken aback. This senior brother was not following the usual script.
The spectators below were dumbfounded too. Did these two have a grudge against each other? Compared with the pair from the Mystic Dharma Immortal Sect, their fighting styles were worlds apart. These two were going straight for each other's lives in their internal match.
Ling Cangjue looked uncertain, carefully concealing a flicker of delight deep inside as he asked, "Do these two disciples of your sect not get along?"
A trace of embarrassment crossed Ning Hai's face. He truly had no idea what Su Jiu and Tong Qi's relationship was like in private. He was a sect leader, not a steward of internal affairs. How could he know every detail of his disciples' private lives?
Ling Cangjue licked his lips, his eyes shifting as he said with a smile, "Two such outstanding disciples-if they injured each other over a personal grudge, tsk, wouldn't that be a terrible waste?"
As he spoke, Ling Cangjue shook his head with a show of concern.
The disciples behind him had long since learned their master's ways inside out. Liu Zhiyan outright rolled his eyes.
