28: The ranking battle will be waiting for you in three days.

The dispute over the tianyang spirit fruit in the Tianyang Mountain Range finally concluded with the appearance of Sister Liuyin'er and others.

However, this matter still caused a huge stir in Tianyang City.

Many forces in Tianyang City were discussing it heatedly, relaying what they had witnessed in the Tianyang Mountain Range.

Thus, news of Zhou Xuan defeating a Liuyun Sect Disciple despite being at a lower Realm quickly spread throughout Tianyang City.

Without a doubt.

At this moment, Zhou Xuan had become the central figure of the entire Tianyang City!

However, this central figure was naturally unaware of this, and Zhou Xuan had already returned to the Inner Sect of Qingxuan Sect with Cheng Qingyue and the others.

......

Because she had helped the Liu family acquire the tianyang spirit fruit this time, she grandly waved her hand and treated Cheng Qingyue and Zhou Xuan at the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion, the most bustling place in the Inner Sect.

Soon, after several rounds of drinks!

Sister Liuyin'er suddenly stood up, her pretty face flushed from drinking, and looked at Zhou Xuan with a slight sway, saying:

"Junior Brother Zhou Xuan, I used to think you were just a good-for-nothing, only good because of your relationship with Qingyue, but I never expected that our Liu family would rely entirely on you to save face this time!"

"This drink is my apology to you!"

As her voice fell, she drained the wine in her bowl.

Seeing her so bold, Zhou Xuan couldn't help but feel a little awkward, finally managing only a half-smile.

If it weren't for Sister Liuyin'er, he might not have gained so many Opportunities. Zhou Xuan also said with a smile:

"Senior Sister, you are truly too polite. I was just lucky!"

"Ultimately, it was just a fluke."

Upon hearing Zhou Xuan's words, Cheng Qingyue and Sister Liuyin'er exchanged glances, then simultaneously rolled their eyes at him.

Is that what you call luck?

Sister Liuyin'er was silent for a moment, then said with a strange tone: "Junior Brother Zhou Xuan, the Inner Sect Disciple ranking battle is in three days. If you happen to miraculously claim first place then, I'll have nothing more to say!"

Zhou Xuan also gave an awkward laugh, saying: "Hehe, I'll try my best!"

However, just as Zhou Xuan's words fell, a cold sneer suddenly rang out:

"In the Inner Sect Disciple ranking battle, you actually still think about taking the Disciple spot? How laughable!"

Zhou Xuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly young man with slightly dark skin, who gave off a severe feeling.

Beside him was an extremely familiar figure, none other than Qi Shan, the number one in the Inner Sect!

The burly man who spoke was named Zhao Kuo, currently ranked fourth in strength within the Sect.

At a nearby table, there were four or five people, mostly outstanding Inner Sect Disciples, but all of them looked at Zhou Xuan and the others with unfriendly expressions.

Their eyes were filled with mockery.

Upon seeing Cheng Qingyue, Qi Shan also revealed a gentle smile and nodded, then his gaze turned cold as he looked at Zhou Xuan, saying:

"Junior Brother Zhou Xuan, I never thought you'd be so ambitious as to want to contend for my position as the number one in the Inner Sect!"

"However, many people are ignorant and always like to speak arrogantly; that's understandable."

The other Inner Sect Disciples also suddenly burst into laughter.

The atmosphere in the area instantly turned cold.

Zhou Xuan's gaze lowered slightly, and he said unhurriedly: "Senior Brother Qi Shan, as for my strength, how about we see the truth in the competition three days from now?"

Upon hearing Zhou Xuan's words, his expression stiffened. He truly hadn't expected Zhou Xuan to be so arrogant!

Because Cheng Qingyue was present, he suppressed his anger and said coldly: "Since Junior Brother Zhou Xuan is so confident, then as your Senior Brother, I will wait for you three days from now!"

The Aura of tension between the two sides naturally attracted many Disciples, and many Inner Sect Disciples eating at the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion looked at the two with surprised and uncertain eyes.

Upon hearing their conversation, they couldn't help but gasp.

Whoosh.

Everyone present couldn't help but exclaim, saying:

"What's going on? Zhou Xuan, a Disciple at Xiantian Realm Third Level, actually wants to compete with Senior Brother Qi Shan in the Inner Sect Disciple ranking battle three days from now?"

"Senior Brother Qi Shan has already achieved Breakthrough to Innate Realm Ninth Level. I can't believe he dares to fight Senior Brother; isn't that just seeking death?"

"Tsk tsk, maybe this Zhou Xuan really has lost his mind!"

"......"

Many Disciples in the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion whispered among themselves, their tones filled with shock and incomprehension.

Zhao Kuo also looked at Zhou Xuan and couldn't help but sneer:

"Tsk tsk, our Qingxuan Sect truly has a wide forest, with all sorts of birds. He really overestimates himself!"

The Disciples at the same table as Qi Shan also wore expressions of disdain.

Slap!

At this moment, Sister Liuyin'er suddenly stood up, her brows furrowed. Her drunkenness had largely sobered, and she said coldly:

"Qi Shan, since Zhou Xuan said so, he naturally has confidence. Just you wait for him in three days!"

Cheng Qingyue's beautiful eyes also flashed with a faint hint of disgust as she looked in Qi Shan's direction. Her encounter with Qi Shan at the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion today was probably no accident!

Thinking of this, Cheng Qingyue angrily shouted: "Qi Shan, our encounter today was probably not accidental, was it? Don't play these petty tricks behind the scenes. They are meaningless and could easily damage the relationship between our two families, who have been friends for generations!"

Upon hearing Cheng Qingyue's words, he frowned and said faintly: "Qingyue, don't worry. Three days from now, I will wait for you at the Sect's training ground!"

When his voice fell, Qi Shan said nothing else and turned to leave.

The few Inner Sect Disciples present also followed him out.

Seeing these people, Zhou Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he murmured to himself:

"Qi Shan, I hope in three days, you can still be as arrogant as you are today. If so, I'll eat two meals of dog shit while standing on my head!"

After Qi Shan and the others left, Cheng Qingyue looked at Zhou Xuan and reminded him with some concern:

"Zhou Xuan, Qi Shan's strength is not weak at all; in fact, he is the undisputed number one in the entire Inner Sect. You must be careful then!"

Sister Liuyin'er also nodded in agreement at this point, saying: "That scoundrel Qi Shan's strength is much greater than Ye Wuyai, who was defeated by you. You must be careful."

Qi Shan being able to remain the top ranked in the Inner Sect until now naturally meant he had formidable strength supporting him.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to consistently be the number one in the Inner Sect!

"Don't worry, although Qi Shan's strength is formidable, I'm not bad either, and it's truly too early to tell who will win or lose then..."

Zhou Xuan also smiled faintly, chatted briefly, and then returned to his small courtyard to rest.

......

That night.

In a secluded small courtyard, many Inner Sect Disciples were gathered, and among them, the most conspicuous figure was naturally Qi Shan, dressed in white!

Qi Shan sat in the center, and the other Disciples looked at him with admiration.

As the undisputed number one in the Inner Sect, his strength was naturally formidable and not something they could easily shake.

"Qi Shan, you called us here today, probably because of Zhou Xuan's matter at the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion today, right?"

At this moment, a handsome man holding a folding fan said with a smile.

This person was Lv Li, ranked second in the Inner Sect, whose Realm had already reached Innate Realm Seventh Level, definitely considered a veteran powerhouse.

Qi Shan's eyes sparkled with brilliance, and he slowly said: "Lv Li is right, but in the ranking battle three days from now, I hope you all will make a move and stop him!"

According to the Inner Sect ranking battle rules, one must defeat some of the Disciples ranked higher to challenge Qi Shan, the number one in the Inner Sect!

The other Disciples, upon hearing this, all sneered and said: "Don't worry, he's just a mere waste at Xiantian Realm Third Level. I'll make sure he's confined to bed for three months and can't get up!"

"Right! It's just this matter. Even if you, Qi Shan, didn't say anything, we would still let that kid know not to be arrogant when young and teach him a lesson about knowing his place."

"Senior Brother Qi Shan, rest assured, three days from now will be Zhou Xuan's moment of humiliation!"

"......"

Many Disciples present spoke with cold sneers in their voices, full of confidence.

Qi Shan's eyes flickered slightly, and the corner of his mouth curved into a sneer:

"Zhou Xuan, oh Zhou Xuan..."

"Three days from now will be your time to be humiliated in front of the Sect Disciples again!"
