21: Competing with two goddesses on the Tianjiao list

Upon hearing this, Shen Bingye did not immediately agree, but instead showed a thoughtful expression.

"Ice Leaf, ever since our Qin Family opened this Fighting Arena, the number of people who have achieved ten consecutive victories is very small.

There hasn't been a single martial artist who has achieved twenty consecutive victories.

Even I only managed fifteen consecutive victories."

As soon as Qin Huanhuan said this, a hint of surprise appeared in Shen Bingye's eyes.

Given her strength, it shouldn't be like this...

"Ice Leaf, the rules of the Fighting Arena are that there is no rest time whatsoever.

Once you defeat or kill a mutated beast, the second mutated beast will immediately be placed into the arena."

Only then did Shen Bingye suddenly realize.

So, once on the stage, it was a war of attrition.

Even geniuses like them would become fatigued due to continuous combat.

"Ice Leaf, why don't we compete today?

Let's see who can achieve twenty consecutive victories and set a new record for the Fighting Arena?

And by the way, prove who is stronger between us?"

Qin Huanhuan raised her beautiful eyebrows, challenging Shen Bingye.

Qin Huanhuan ranked fourth on the Genius List, while Shen Bingye ranked sixth.

Although Qin Huanhuan's ranking was higher than Shen Bingye's, their strengths were actually on par.

The reason Qin Huanhuan ranked higher was simply because she had ascended the list earlier.

Looking at the battle-ready Qin Huanhuan, Shen Bingye showed no signs of backing down.

A sharp aura also emanated from her.

"I accept this challenge!

However, if I win against you, you'll give me two additional First-Tier Martial Skills and one First-Tier Cultivation Technique!"

Qin Huanhuan was stunned when she heard Shen Bingye's conditions.

"Ice Leaf, you're Principal Gu's top disciple, after all.

Would you lack First-Tier Martial Skills and Cultivation Techniques?"

Suddenly, something occurred to her.

A teasing look appeared in Qin Huanhuan's narrow eyes.

"Ice Leaf, are these Martial Skills and Cultivation Techniques for Su Jun, who was adopted with you?"

The Qin Family, backing Qin Huanhuan, was a prominent clan in Kaizhou City.

Investigating someone's identity was extremely simple.

Qin Huanhuan knew that Shen Bingye and Su Jun were both adopted by a Grandma.

And what Principal Gu taught, Shen Bingye could not leak.

So Qin Huanhuan guessed that Shen Bingye was doing this for Su Jun.

A flicker of panic crossed Shen Bingye's eyes, but she quickly reverted to her usual cool demeanor.

"I just think adding a stake will make our competition more interesting!"

With that, Shen Bingye turned and headed towards the Fighting Arena.

Qin Huanhuan, however, wore an expression that said, 'I've seen through everything.'

"I never thought our First High School's famous aloof goddess would have someone in her heart?

But I heard Su Jun's vital energy isn't very good; do you think what you're doing is worth it?"

Shen Bingye didn't turn back, "Whether it's worth it or not isn't for you to decide!"

"Dominant!

If I win this competition, you'll take me to meet this Su Jun!"

Qin Huanhuan knew of Su Jun but had never met him.

She really wanted to know what Su Jun, who could make Shen Bingye, the aloof goddess, care so much, looked like and what kind of charm he possessed?

Hearing this, Shen Bingye didn't stop walking.

However, a hint of nervousness and unease flashed in her eyes.

"You won't win this competition!"

Qin Huanhuan's desire to win immediately surged.

"Ice Leaf, when Su Jun is mentioned, your emotions are off.

I'm determined to win against you and meet Su Jun!"

Intense battle intent appeared simultaneously in the eyes of these two goddesses on the Genius List.

Su Jun did not know that he had caused a dispute between two goddesses because of himself.

At this moment, wearing a mask, he had just entered the Fighting Arena.

In the center were many individual arenas, surrounded by a circle of spectators.

At the entrance were the staff of the Fighting Arena.

They were registering those who had signed up to participate.

"Rest assured, your identity information will be absolutely confidential in the Fighting Arena!"

Qin Ming, the person in charge of the Fighting Arena, said with conviction.

Qin Ming was burly, standing there like a mountain.

He was one of the mainstays of the Qin Family, possessing Intermediate Martial Grandmaster strength.

No one present doubted Qin Ming's words.

Such large clans, at times, valued not profit but credibility.

Su Jun, wearing a mask, queued up to register.

He noticed that only one-third of the people wore masks, hiding their identities.

"Brother, this is a great opportunity to show your face in front of everyone.

Why are you wearing a mask?"

The person behind Su Jun nudged him, kindly reminding him.

"Show my face?"

Su Jun was startled, and Li Jian continued to explain, "See all these spectators around?

Among them are many prominent families from Kaizhou City.

If you perform well on the stage, you'll be noticed by them, and thus, a crow can turn into a phoenix!"

So that's how it was.

Only then did Su Jun understand why most people didn't wear masks.

They sought the appreciation of those prominent families.

But Su Jun was indifferent to this.

Firstly, he had no intention of joining those prominent families.

Secondly, these prominent family members were cunning; even if recruited, they would likely become cannon fodder!

Under Qin Ming's supervision, the Fighting Arena staff worked very efficiently, processing one person every five seconds.

It was soon Su Jun's turn.

Seeing Su Jun's mask, the staff didn't find it strange. "Code name?"

"Shadow!"

Shadow hides its edge, and when Shadow reveals its fangs, it will be time to reap.

"Go over there to measure your vital energy!"

"Okay."

The staff quickly tested Su Jun's vital energy, and when they saw the 218 points of vital energy, they were slightly surprised.

Although Su Jun wore a mask, they could feel that Su Jun was very young.

"Shadow, Arena Number Thirty-Six!"

"Hmm."

As soon as Su Jun left, these staff members began to discuss in low voices.

"This Shadow just now is most likely a genius from the Genius List."

"Indeed, I just don't know which one on the Genius List this person is?"

"Who knows? Maybe he'll take off his mask after the competition ends."

The staff continued their work.

"Oh?

Qin Huanhuan, ranked fourth on the Genius List, and Shen Bingye, ranked sixth, are both here?"

"Are they preparing to challenge the twenty-consecutive-victory record, a feat no one has ever achieved?"

"Very likely!"

"It seems we're in for a treat today!"

The appearance of Qin Huanhuan and Shen Bingye immediately caused screams from the audience.

Many contestants also became excited upon seeing these two.

Shen Bingye came too?

Su Jun was surprised when he saw Shen Bingye.

Are they going to compete in the same arena?

Thinking of this, Su Jun couldn't help but curl his lips, and a hint of battle intent appeared in his eyes.

Coincidentally, Shen Bingye was assigned to Arena Number Thirty-Seven, while Qin Huanhuan was in Arena Number Thirty-Eight.

As Shen Bingye passed by Su Jun, she suddenly felt that this person looked somewhat familiar.

However, because Su Jun had intentionally padded his shoulders and stuffed some sponges, Shen Bingye only had a fleeting moment of realization before her thoughts returned.

"Everyone, I still need to go over the rules once more.

Knocking a mutated beast off the stage or killing a mutated beast both count as a win.

There will be no rest during the matches.

Recovery-type potions cannot be used.

Weapons exceeding C-grade are not allowed...

Therefore, for the sake of consecutive victories, it's best to knock the mutated beast off the stage!"

After Qin Ming finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a mutated beast rose from the center of each arena.

The audience around the Fighting Arena immediately erupted into cheers.

Many people took out their phones and started recording videos.
