Yun Qingming had no idea what Lin Xuan was thinking.
He glanced at that side several times with a cold eye, before finally being interrupted by being called by name.
"Seventh Arena: Yun Qingming of Heaven-Reaching Institute versus Han Ji of Heaven-Reaching Institute!"
The people of Heaven-Reaching Institute...
Yun Qingming walked onto the arena, looked at the young man opposite him, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.
The opponent he encountered this time was, to put it mildly, quite formidable.
The other party is a genuine Venerable!
The difference is just too big...
Yun Qingming has only just entered the Emperor Realm.
He exhaled and gripped the knife tightly in his hand.
If anyone else had been in this situation, they would probably have given up long ago, but Yun Qingming gritted his teeth and erased the word "give up" from his mind.
He didn't want to admit defeat.
He's going to give it a try!
Yun Qingming's senior brother frowned slightly, a hint of worry in his eyes, but quickly relaxed, calmly returning to his original seat as he pondered.
'Very well, although the teacher told me to take good care of my junior brother, taking care of him doesn't mean suppressing him. Let me see just how far this prodigy of the Sacred Physique can go.'
Han Ji of Heaven-Reaching Institute had long heard of this Sacred Physique student.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of admitting defeat, he immediately became interested.
"You've got guts? Fine! Let's have a go!"
On the arena, Divine Ability clashed, and booming sounds echoed continuously. After more than a dozen rounds, Han Ji, though confident of his victory, couldn't help but show a hint of astonishment.
He wasn't Venerable to the Venerable Realm; he had been immersed in that realm for a long time. Yet Yun Qingming, who had just entered the Emperor Realm, was able to withstand more than a dozen rounds of attacks from him?
Truly worthy of being called the Sacred Physique!
After a moment of reflection, Han Ji became even more serious.
Although Yun Qingming felt that with his talent, he might have a chance of winning, the gap between their cultivation levels was simply too great, and Han Ji was indeed a prodigy.
He fought fiercely for dozens of rounds, but in the end, Han Ji knocked him off the stage with a single counterattack.
As his Qi and Blood and qi surged, Yun Qingming clenched his fist unwillingly, but in the end, he gave in.
"Junior brother, you've done very well, don't be discouraged."
"Yes, junior brother, when I was your age, my cultivation level wasn't as high as yours."
" Han Ji is a renowned Venerable. The fact that you've been able to withstand him for so long despite a difference in cultivation level is truly remarkable!"
After Yun Qingming returned to his seat, his fellow disciples came up to comfort him, their attitude as kind as could be.
With the comfort of his fellow senior brothers and sisters, Yun Qingming gradually calmed down and a smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you for your comforting words, senior brothers and sisters. I know, don't worry, I won't be discouraged."
After all, the difference in their levels of understanding is undeniable.
Even though he was unwilling, Yun Qingming knew clearly that he had already achieved an extraordinary feat by holding out for so long before being knocked off the stage.
He had a smile on his face, but subconsciously glanced at Lin Xuan.
Ever since he learned that Lin Xuan was also participating in this academy competition, although he was determined not to pay attention to him, his eyes still couldn't help but look in Lin Xuan's direction.
Upon looking at it, Yun Qingming noticed that Lin Xuan's name was called.
"Arena No. 10, Lin Xuan of the Supreme Institute versus Han Ji of the Primordial Beginning Institute!"
It's Han Ji again!
Yun Qingming's breath hitched for a moment, then he laughed.
He himself could withstand dozens of moves from Han Ji, but what about Lin Xuan?
How many moves can it withstand?
Three moves?
Or perhaps, they can't even withstand a single move and are knocked off the stage?
ha!
"Perfect."
Yun Qingming murmured softly.
"My teacher told me not to care about you, and I couldn't be bothered to care either. This time, through our separate battles against Han Ji, I'll clearly see the gap between us and completely forget about you!"
Xi Jingjing and Sun Chenghe naturally noticed Lin Xuan as well.
Both of them were filled with many emotions.
"Luckily, we didn't make the wrong choice back then, otherwise, I don't know if we would be where we are today."
"Yes, I almost missed Brother Yun. Luckily, luckily."
As they were talking, they saw Lin Xuan had already gone up on stage, looking at Han Ji opposite him without the slightest fear in his expression.
Han Ji scratched his head and smiled.
"There are so many new students this year, they've got guts!"
"Don't worry, go all out and fight me, I won't hurt you."
He had a hearty smile.
Not hurt me?
Lin Xuan's lips curled into a smile. He paused briefly with his sword, then swung it out the next second.
However, Lin Xuan deliberately controlled the direction when he swung the ball.
Upon seeing the incoming Sword-Ray, Han Ji's expression turned serious. He swung his blade forcefully, preparing to break through Lin Xuan's attack and knock this newcomer who had just entered the Holy Heaven off the stage.
However, when his blade met the Sword-Ray, it not only failed to break through the attack, but he was also injured by it. He was forced to take the force and was sent flying backward!
Thump!
Han Ji rolled over and knelt on the ground, looking somewhat disheveled. His face was a little pale, but fortunately he was unharmed.
However, this did not stop him from staring at Lin Xuan in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief.
I actually lost?
He also said he would hold back a little to avoid hurting his opponent and make their defeat less embarrassing.
Unexpectedly, in the end, it was he who was cut down!
And it only took One Sword?
What kind of monsters are the newcomers participating in this year's competition?
He gave a wry smile. He had thought he would get a good ranking in this competition, but he was defeated so soon after it started.
But a loss is a loss.
Han Ji shook his head, got up from the ground, revealed a hearty smile, and gave Lin Xuan a thumbs up.
"Junior Brother's Swordsmanship is exquisite; I humbly admit defeat."
Lin Xuan nodded casually at Han Ji.
"Thank you for your kind offer."
To return a favor.
Lin Xuan never intentionally harms those who are kind to him.
He had just used seven-tenths of his strength in that One Sword; otherwise, Venerable Realm would have been One Sword or killed if he hadn't.
Then, he calmly sheathed his sword and left the arena.
However, to the few people watching the match, this scene left them only with utter shock and astonishment.
Especially Yun Qingming!
Although Lin Xuan was an "unknown figure" in the academy and received little attention, there were other more famous and powerful individuals competing at the same time, drawing all eyes to him.
Ke Yun Qingming kept staring at Lin Xuan without blinking for a moment.
He never expected that the outcome of this match would be like this!
Just now, he was even guessing that Lin Xuan would be defeated in a few moves, but he never expected...
With One Sword single One Sword strike, Lin Xuan defeated his opponent!
Yun Qingming simply couldn't accept it!
this...
How can this guy be so strong?
His face was grim. He took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart, his expression tense and serious.
Only now did Yun Qingming reluctantly admit it.
He... seems to have underestimated Lin Xuan.
But why?
Why should I?!
The opponent wasn't Sacred Physique either, so how could they defeat an opponent that even they struggled against?
Yun Qingming pursed her lips; her initial intention to ignore Lin Xuan's feelings suddenly became extremely clear at this moment.
