201: He is Su Han?! Everyone is envious
Chapter 201: He is Su Han?! The Envied Crowd
Su Han, riding his sword with Xiao Bai, quickly arrived at Tongtian Peak.
The peak was shrouded in swirling clouds and mist, and the top Disciples from various peaks were gathered here, the crowd bustling.
Some were familiar with fellow Disciples, sharing insights before the competition in twos and threes, their expressions either nervous or confident.
There were also those with aloof dispositions, standing alone with hands behind their backs, looking up at the sky, radiating an aura of cold arrogance that kept others at a distance.
But when they looked towards the several arenas not far away, their fervent gazes also betrayed their eager anticipation for this Seven Peaks Tournament.
Su Han landed his Flying Sword and simply glanced at the arenas.
They were paved with bluestone, flat and smooth, with faint Spirit Energy fluctuations flowing, and the edges of the arenas were shimmering with runes, which should be protective enchantments set up in advance to prevent stray Spirit Energy during the matches from injuring the innocent.
"Su Han, why are some arenas deserted while others have so many people?"
At this moment, Xiao Bai sat on Su Han's shoulder, looking at the lively crowd around her, her eyes full of excitement.
At the same time, she asked with some curiosity.
Su Han took a look and found that it was indeed the case.
Around some of the arenas where matches were about to take place, the crowd had already gathered so densely that not even a drop of water could pass through, three layers deep inside and three layers outside, all craning their necks in anticipation.
"Perhaps the people competing in those arenas are more famous among the sect's Disciples?"
Su Han gently stroked Xiao Bai's head with his finger, guessing with a smile.
"Oh, is that so..."
Just as the two were talking, a burst of enthusiastic discussion erupted.
"Look quickly, that's Tian Senior Sister Linger from Da Zhu Peak! Shimei looks even more beautiful today, she should be able to shine brightly in this match!"
"Needless to say, Tian Shimei's parents are both extraordinary, and she herself is exceptionally talented and diligent. Among the young female Disciples in the sect, how many can compare with her?"
The Disciples' praises rose and fell.
Listening to the crowd's discussion, Su Han also looked in the direction of the sound.
He saw a woman in a light pink dress standing gracefully amidst the crowd not far away.
Her figure was graceful, her black hair flowed like a waterfall, and her lively eyes were like clear autumn water, revealing a playful intelligence.
Her nose was delicate and straight, her lips were like cherries, naturally red without makeup, and her every movement exuded a lively yet gentle temperament.
When she smiled, there were two shallow dimples at the corners of her mouth, so sweet it seemed honey could flow out.
Her pure and innocent appearance made Su Han's lips unconsciously curl into a smile.
At this moment, Tian Linger seemed to sense something, her gaze swept over, and she immediately spotted Su Han.
Instantly, her eyes lit up, her gaze filled with surprise and affection. She moved with light steps, leaving the crowd and walking quickly towards Su Han.
Soon, she had skipped and hopped to Su Su Han's front, unhesitatingly grabbing his arm with full affection and coquettish ( coquettish, a soft, spoiled reprimand).
"You finally came, I've been looking for you here for a long time!"
Su Han looked at Tian Linger, smiling as he ruffled her long hair.
"What?! Who is this kid? How can he gain Tian Shijie's favor!"
Seeing Su Han and Tian Linger's intimate appearance, the surrounding crowd couldn't help but size up Su Han, and many even gritted their teeth secretly, filled with envy.
Some Disciples couldn't help but ask angrily.
It seemed that if things didn't go well, they would step forward and teach Su Han a lesson.
Someone next to them immediately explained: "You don't even know this person?"
"This is Su Han, the most talented and the only male Disciple of Xiao Zhu Peak in this generation!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and began whispering to each other: "Hiss! He is that Genius from Xiao Zhu Peak, Su Han?!"
"I've heard that some say this Su Han has already entered the Shangqing Realm, but I don't know if it's true or not."
"I think it's likely false, but even if it's false, just based on the talent he has shown after only a year of entering the sect, his cultivation must have reached the eighth or ninth layer of the Yiqing Realm by now."
"Eighth or ninth layer of the Yiqing Realm? Can't mess with him, can't mess with him..."
"Perhaps the only one who can contend with this Su Han this time is Senior Brother Qi Hao from Dragon Head Peak."
"Speaking of Senior Brother Qi, I heard that Senior Brother Qi is very interested in this Tian Shimei from Da Zhu Peak, and even took the initiative to befriend her before."
"Really? Then there will be a good show to watch!"
Su Han felt the envious gazes cast from around him, but he was calm.
As for Qi Hao, whom they mentioned, was he Tian Linger's official partner in the original story?
Su Han didn't care at all.
However, Su Han had to sigh at the inertia of the plot.
Even with him here, Qi Hao would probably still fall in love with Tian Linger at first sight.
It's just a pity.
This time, Qi Hao came too late, and if Tian Linger had to choose between him and Qi Hao, Qi Hao wouldn't have a chance at all.
Thinking this.
Su Han shook his head, smiled slightly at Tian Linger, and teased softly.
"Ling'er, as soon as I showed up, I basked in your glory and became the center of attention."
Tian Linger looked around, "Let them envy if they want to, I don't care about them."
And at this moment.
Xiao Bai, who had been left aside, let out an dissatisfied ( dissatisfied, a sound of dissatisfaction) "Hmph" by Su Han's ear.
Her fluffy body trembled, and her tiny fox teeth lightly bit Su Han's ear.
Su Han saw this scene, turned to look at Xiao Bai, and chuckled inwardly.
"Are you jealous?"
Tian Linger at this time also noticed Xiao Bai, this beautiful little fox, and leaned her head over curiously, blinking her big eyes as she looked, exclaiming softly.
"Ah~"
"Su Han, where did this little fox come from? She's so white and soft, absolutely adorable."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai raised her small head, turned away haughtily, ignoring her praise, but her beautiful fox eyes curved into crescents.
"This girl with Su Han's scent isn't so annoying after all~"
Seeing this, Tian Linger wasn't annoyed either, her attention quickly returned to Su Han.
"Su Han, I have a match today, you have to keep your eyes wide open and watch carefully."
Tian Linger shook Su Han's arm, her eyes full of anticipation, like a child eager to show off her new skills in front of her beloved.
"I haven't been lazy during this time, and the Dragon God Skill you just taught me has improved a lot..."
"The fight later will definitely make your eyes light up!"
Upon hearing this, Su Han dotingly pinched her nose, smiled and nodded.
"Naturally, how could I miss Ling'er's match."
Tian Linger proudly slapped away Su Han's large hand, "Hmph, I'm not a child anymore."
Saying this.
She tilted her head, her hair sliding from her shoulder, adding a touch of playfulness, and asked curiously: "Oh, right, when everyone was drawing lots just now, why didn't I see you?"
"When does your match start?"
"I didn't participate in this Seven Peaks Tournament."
Tian Linger instantly widened her eyes, her cherry lips slightly parted, full of surprise, "You didn't participate?"
However, in an instant, Tian Linger understood, and giggled.
"That's right, with your ability, probably few people in this competition could even withstand one serious move from you."
"You probably disdain participating in this kind of match."
Although she was teasing, the pride and admiration in her eyes when she looked at Su Han were undeniable.
In her heart, she always felt that Su Han was the most outstanding existence in the Qingyun Sect, beyond the reach of others.
And just then.
The heavy drums in the arena suddenly sounded, deep and long.
Tian Linger's spirits lifted, she released Su Han's arm and playfully winked at Su Han.
"It's my turn to go on stage, you stay here and watch obediently. When I win, you have to cheer loudly for me!"
With that.
Her figure was as light as a flying swallow, her toes lightly touching the ground as she darted towards the arena.
Su Han leaned against a stone pillar nearby, in a relaxed posture, while Xiao Bai sat comfortably on his shoulder, excited.
Just then, a man in white not far away walked over leisurely.
Looking at Tian Linger on the arena, his eyes were filled with undisguised admiration.
