83: Chapter 83 Next

Shen Lixuan's offensive was completely seen through by Su Lianxue. Precisely because of this, Su Lianxue was able to find the flaw in Shen Lixuan's defense, thereby achieving the goal of winning with a single strike.

"Junior Sister's talent for combat is not bad."

Seeing this scene, Lin Ming nodded slightly and said.

His Junior Sister's talent in combat was indeed impressive; she had a bit of his own flair.

From beginning to end, he was never worried that his Junior Sister would lose.

After all, her strength at the tenth level of the Body Tempering Realm was evident, and Su Lianxue's Body Tempering technique was also extraordinary, which meant that to some extent, her strength already surpassed the standard of the tenth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

As someone who spent every day with Su Lianxue, Lin Ming could confirm this.

Lin Ming had already noticed this during Su Lianxue's previous battle against those wolf demons when she was at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

Not to mention that Su Lianxue had now reached the tenth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

Right now, what worried Lin Ming more was himself.

How did he get forcibly added to the list by Elder Mu Shan, and it seemed like Elder Mu Shan wouldn't give him any chance to refuse.

This was clearly Su Lianxue's matter, yet now he was added to it, which left Lin Ming feeling somewhat helpless.

"Sister Mu, I shouldn't go up; just letting my Junior Sister go is enough."

Lin Ming walked to Elder Mu Shan's side and whispered to her.

"What? Are you afraid?"

Elder Mu Shan glanced at Lin Ming and said with a smile.

"Sister Mu, just consider me afraid then."

Lin Ming nodded and said.

He would just let her think he was afraid.

"Then you must go up even more. As practitioners, how can we let a single word like 'fear' affect our path forward?"

Elder Mu Shan said, putting on a serious expression.

The corner of Lin Ming's mouth twitched slightly.

If he didn't know Elder Mu Shan well, he might have actually believed her nonsense.

Looking at it this way, Elder Mu Shan was determined to make him go up on stage.

"Next."

On the Martial Arts Arena, Su Lianxue said with a calm expression.

Defeating Shen Lixuan hadn't taken much of her energy; possessing great strength but being unable to utilize it correctly meant he posed no threat to her at all.

Seeing Shen Lixuan defeated so easily, the other eager Disciples around hesitated. Shen Lixuan's strength was considered upper-middle tier among Disciples at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

If even he lost so easily, it was clear how vast the gap in strength was.

Even so, some people did not give up. This was a spot for the Thunder Origin Pool, and they did not want to give it up.

Besides, even if they lost, they wouldn't lose anything; at most, they would just get a few injuries.

"Wang Ding, ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, please offer your guidance."

Very quickly, another Disciple at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm stepped onto the stage.

He launched an offensive against Su Lianxue with a pair of powerful fists, but like Shen Lixuan, Su Lianxue saw through all of his movements.

As a former Emperor-level powerhouse, Su Lianxue didn't even know how many battles she had experienced. The habits, intuition, experience, and other things formed through those battles had not been lost because of her reincarnation; these were things engraved into her Soul.

To her, these practitioners of the Body Tempering Realm before her were far too simple.

"Bang..."

Wang Ding was off the stage; Su Lianxue had spotted his flaw and sent him off the stage with one punch.

"Next."

Su Lianxue continued.

"How was it?"

Someone said to Wang Ding.

"I can't beat her."

After a moment of silence, Wang Ding said these three words.

In the battle just now, every one of his offensives had been easily neutralized by Su Lianxue, and he couldn't pose any threat to her at all; this, on the contrary, made Wang Ding feel a strange sense of suffocation.

He felt the gap between the two of them.

This gap seemed even larger than the gap between him and that person.

Perhaps even that person might not be a match for Su Lianxue.

"Nonsense."

That person said.

Since he had been beaten off the stage by Su Lianxue, of course he hadn't beaten her.

The easy defeat of two people in a row once again dispelled the thoughts of many.

About a quarter of an hour later, a sturdy man went up on stage.

Half a quarter of an hour later, that person was beaten off.

"Next."

Another person went up on stage.

And was then beaten off with one punch.

It continued like this until the seventh person was beaten off.

These seven all possessed cultivation at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, and some were even preparing to break through to the Spirit Guiding Realm, but they were all beaten off by Su Lianxue with a single punch.

This caused the other Disciples at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm to completely lose their enthusiasm; they believed that if they went up, the result would be the same as the previous seven, so it was better not to go up and get beaten.

"Is that it?"

Seeing that no Disciples were coming up to the stage for a long time, Elder Mu Shan frowned.

Clearly, she was not very satisfied with these Disciples.

Likewise, Su Lianxue's performance surprised her somewhat.

She knew that these Disciples at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm were likely not Su Lianxue's match.

But she hadn't expected the gap between the two sides to be so great; with just one punch, she had sent them all off.

That old woman, Master Yun Hua, isn't trying to cultivate another version of herself, is she?

Time passed minute by minute, and no one came up to the stage for a long time.

If it continued like this, Elder Mu Shan felt there was no need to continue; they could start the next round.

At this moment, a very handsome man rushed over from outside; he walked straight past the crowd and onto the Martial Arts Arena.

Seeing this person go up on stage, the surrounding Disciples felt a glimmer of hope rise in their hearts.

Being completely defeated by an outsider, and one from the same level of Sect—Yuanxu Mountain—made them feel very uncomfortable.

But the gap in strength also let them know that if they continued to send up Disciples at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, the result probably wouldn't change.

But the appearance of the person currently on stage gave them hope.

Du Ziheng, currently the only practitioner in their Yongzhen Sect who had reached the tenth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

He might be able to defeat Su Lianxue.

"Du Ziheng, tenth level of the Body Tempering Realm, please offer your guidance."

Looking at Su Lianxue before him, Du Ziheng's eyes lit up, and then he said.

Su Lianxue nodded slightly.

The next second, Du Ziheng strode over and took the initiative to launch an attack on Su Lianxue.

On the way here, he had already learned of Su Lianxue's strength; she was at the tenth level of the Body Tempering Realm just like him, and she was also a Disciple of the Nirvana Ancestor.

His fellow Disciples at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm hadn't even lasted a single move before being defeated by her.

Adding all these reasons together, Du Ziheng was extremely cautious of her.

He chose to take the initiative, wanting to keep the situation of the battle in his own hands.

Facing Du Ziheng's attack, Su Lianxue adopted the same measures as before; she did not collide with Du Ziheng immediately, dodging his attacks instead.

But Du Ziheng would not give Su Lianxue the chance to keep dodging; his speed suddenly increased, and the Qi and blood within his body erupted at this moment.

From the beginning, his plan had been to go all out and end the battle quickly.
