Little people also have their moments of glory

"In this Grand Competition, friendship comes first, and ranking second. If anyone is outmatched, they may concede!"

As the referee's words fell, the Grand Competition officially began!

In the first match, the Zhao Family sent out Zhao Xinyi!

The surrounding audience could no longer remain calm; they sent out their main force in the very first match!

Could it be that the Zhao Family intended to cut through the mess quickly! To decide the outcome in one match!

Even the Li Family Elder looked surprised, and couldn't help but look at the old man sitting beside him.

Noticing the peculiar gaze, the old man also smiled and calmly said:

"It's just the juniors' strategy. This old man didn't come up with any bad ideas."

The person speaking was precisely the Zhao Family Elder!

"Zhao Qifeng."

"Brother Feng, it seems your Family's juniors this generation are quite spirited, to make such a bold gamble!"

Regarding his friend's teasing, Zhao Qifeng merely stroked his beard and chuckled, offering no reply.

.....

The referee below, with a voice like a great bell, spoke each word clearly into everyone's ears.

"The Li Family sends out..."

Looking at the list in his hand, the referee thought he had picked up the wrong one, confirming it several times.

With a face full of doubt, he slowly spoke a name that made everyone disbelieve.

"The Li Family sends out...."

"Li Yan!"

Facing everyone's strange looks and their incomprehension, Li Yan didn't explain much, merely stepping onto the Yanwu Arena in silence.

Immediately, Li Yan released his Aura!

"Fifth level of Qi Condensation!"

Zhao Xinyi, like everyone else, had a face full of confusion, but in the end, she couldn't suppress her curiosity and asked Li Yan:

"You know I'm at the seventh level of Qi Condensation! Why do you challenge me? Do you think I'm not your opponent!"

When Zhao Xinyi spoke the last sentence, fierce light burst forth in her eyes!

At some point, a soul-stirring dagger appeared in her hand! This dagger was exquisitely beautiful, radiating cold light. Just observing it for a moment made people shiver uncontrollably.

In contrast, Li Yan's face was unusually calm, and he spoke seductively:

"I have long heard of the illustrious reputation of the Zhao Family siblings! Not only are the male handsome and the female enchanting! Their talent is extraordinary! Their strength is even more awe-inspiring!"

"They are truly a Dragon and Phoenix combination! Even Mortals in Qingfeng City know of them in every household, and even in the ears of three-year-old children, it is like thunder..."

Li Yan's flattery flowed like an endless ocean, showing no sign of stopping.

Zhao Xinyi's face couldn't help but become even colder, and in her heart, she looked down on Li Yan completely.

"Such a sycophant is truly repulsive!"

Li Yan turned a deaf ear to Zhao Xinyi's sarcasm, completely unaffected by her.

"To fight Young Miss Xinyi is my lifelong wish. Even if I know I will lose, I truly can't resist exchanging blows with Young Miss Xinyi."

"Please, Young Miss Xinyi, do not hold back easily just because my cultivation is low...."

Zhao Xinyi listened to the endless flattery, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper, gradually losing control of her emotions.

"If you want to fight, then fight! If not, get lost! You're making my ears noisy!"

Even a fool would know that Zhao Xinyi was enraged at this moment, yet Li Yan opposite him looked completely oblivious, which was truly baffling.

In contrast, Li Yan showed no impatience, still trying to please a cold shoulder, which could indeed be called a competent villain.

"Before the Grand Competition begins, this humble one dares to make a small request to Young Miss Xinyi, hoping Young Miss Xinyi will show great mercy and compassion."

Zhao Xinyi suppressed the anger in her heart, preventing herself from erupting on the spot, and roared with a slightly trembling voice:

"You tell this old lady! I'll try not to beat you to death on stage!"

Below the stage, Zhao Aotian also unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead. He was naturally very clear about his younger sister's ferocity.

The fact that Li Yan could make his younger sister so angry meant he would probably lose an arm or a leg. May he wish himself good luck....

.....

Seeing Zhao Xinyi agree, Li Yan immediately beamed with joy, then looked at Zhao Xinyi with a face full of pleading.

"This humble one is located in the northern part of the Yanwu Arena, this position reduces this humble one's Battle Intent by more than half, which is very unsuitable and awkward, so I dare to swap positions with Young Miss Xinyi."

"I hope Young Miss Xinyi will be kind enough to grant my wish! In the future, this humble one will certainly treat you with courtesy...."

Zhao Xinyi's originally delicate and fair face was flushed with anger. She held her breath, trying to avoid losing her composure at such an important occasion.

After all, this was an open and covert struggle between Families. If she made a fool of herself, rumors might spread to her main Family.

Zhao Xinyi no longer hesitated, holding her dagger, she gracefully stepped off the stage.

But when she was about to swap positions with Li Yan, he stubbornly refused to step down!

He just stared at her with a sneer, being so humiliated! Zhao Xinyi could no longer suppress the anger in her heart!

Before she could erupt, a cold voice instantly pulled her back to reality!

"Zhao Family's Zhao Xinyi has left the field. This round is a victory for Li Family's Li Yan!"

.......

The vast Yanwu Arena, with hundreds of disciples, was eerily quiet, so silent that a pin drop could be heard!

Zhao Xinyi below the stage also reacted, gripping the cold dagger tightly in her hand!

"You dog, I'm going to kill you!"

"You are simply an utter beast! I..."

But she was quickly pulled into Zhao Aotian's embrace, causing no ripple, and her curses could still be faintly heard.

The surrounding disciples also whispered, their opinions varying.

Li Tan watched this maneuver with wide eyes, and couldn't help but exclaim, "The mouth is indeed a powerful weapon!"

Even the Li Family Elder, when questioned by Zhao Qifeng, silently lowered his head.

Insults and resentment, like a tsunami, surged towards Li Yan, threatening to engulf him.

However, he remained as before, turning a deaf ear to the crowd's accusations, merely walking off the stage in silence.

He won, he won in a very disgraceful way, even one could describe it as despicable and shameless, but he simply used his wisdom to win the match....

"Anger can disfigure a person. Do not argue with others. It is better to turn a deaf ear...."

"After all, people always believe they are right, so there's no need to expend effort trying to explain."

.......

The scene shifted, and a handsome, resolute young man strode onto the stage. He had sword-like brows and starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and long hair flowing to his waist.

The arrogance and sharpness in his eyes were deeply imprinted in everyone's hearts! His tall and mighty physique constantly proved his extraordinariness!

Even the Third Elder of the Li Family, upon seeing this young man, had a gleam in his eyes and praised him generously.

Zhao Family Elder Zhao Qifeng spoke proudly:

"This person is my Zhao Family's Qilin Son!"

"Zhao Aotian!"

The Li Family's Third Elder also instantly became interested:

"What an arrogant name! I wonder what is so special about this young man, to have such confidence!"

Zhao Qifeng laughed heartily, his face full of boastfulness.

"Spear Heart Clarity!"

As soon as the words fell, the Li Family's Third Elder could no longer remain calm. It was clear he knew the meaning of Spear Heart Clarity!

"Immortal Master's bearing!"

How difficult it is to advance cultivation after reaching Foundation Establishment! But those with a transparent heart will have no obstacles before the Peak of Foundation Establishment!

They are the darlings of heaven, the protectors of the earth, born extraordinary!

....

Under everyone's astonished gaze, Zhao Aotian stood straight in the center of the stage, holding a chilling long spear!

His seventh-level Qi Condensation cultivation was not concealed in the slightest; a majestic Aura instantly swept across the entire field!

His hair fluttered wildly in the wind, and he spoke with an arrogant, condescending tone:

"My spear and I will battle the marquises!"

The powerful Battle Intent made Li Tan's heart turn cold, and the flesh on his body constantly conveyed the extreme danger of this person!
