Chapter 204 From Now On, We’re Even
The entire arena was in an uproar because of the appearance of the Black Qing Sky Dragon.
Lin Jiansheng raised his head and looked at the mighty and handsome Black Qing Sky Dragon in the sky. Although he had already heard from Yu Huang that Sheng Xiao had given his heart blood to her, Lin Jiansheng was still shocked to see Yu Huang replicate Sheng Xiao’s Black Qing Sky Dragon.
Apart from Lin Jiansheng, no one else could guess why Black Qing Sky Dragon would appear on Yu Huang’s body. Even Madam Sheng was confused.
Madam Sheng turned around and asked Lin Jiansheng in a low voice, “Supremacy Lin, why would Yu Huang use Xiao’er’s beast form?”
Although Mrs. Sheng spoke in a low voice, everyone present was a powerful cultivator. They could even hear the buzzing of mosquitoes, let alone Mrs. Sheng.
Upon hearing this, everyone’s ears twitched. They wanted to hear Lin Jiansheng’s explanation.
Lin Jiansheng would not be stupid enough to reveal the secret of Yu Huang’s cultivation technique in public.
He chuckled and raised his hand to touch his bald head. Pretending to be profound, he said, “This is a secret between lovers. I’m not sure either. This is also the first time I’ve seen Ah Huang use this move.”
Everyone rolled their eyes.
How could Lin Jiansheng not know?
Seeing that Lin Jiansheng didn’t want to talk about it, Mrs. Sheng didn’t ask further.
Yu Huang had successfully refined Sheng Xiao’s blood half a year ago. It was her first time copying Sheng Xiao’s beast form.
She had no confidence in this.
Yu Huang raised her head and looked at the handsome Black Qing Sky Dragon. She was satisfied when she saw that it was no different from the Black Qing Sky Dragon that Sheng Xiao had summoned.
With a sigh, she spread her Vermillion Bird wings and flew into the sky.
Yu Huang held onto Black Qing Sky Dragon’s tail with both hands. When Black Qing Sky Dragon sensed Yu Huang’s command, his body swayed and turned into a Dragon Sword in the blink of an eye.
Yu Huang stood in the air with the Dragon Sword in her hand. She closed her eyes and started flying in the air. Her steps and sword form were exactly the same as when Sheng Xiao used the Myriad Slash technique.
Yu Huang seemed to be possessed by Sheng Xiao. Sheng Xiao’s shadow appeared on her body.
When the dragon sword was full of energy, Yu Huang suddenly opened her eyes. She raised the dragon sword in her hand high up and ruthlessly hacked at Xuanyuan Jing’s huge waves.
“Myriad Slash technique!”
Boom!
Black dragon energy descended from the sky before instantly shattering Xuanyuan Jing’s huge waves!
Xuanyuan Jing was completely helpless and was defeated by a single move from Yu Huang.
“Ah!!” Receiving a backlash from the energy, Xuanyuan Jing’s body was like an arrow that had left the bowstring and instantly flew out!
“Jing’er!” Xuanyuan Shen stood up furiously and ran towards Xuanyuan Jing. Just as he was about to land, he caught him.
Xuanyuan Shen carried Xuanyuan Jing and landed on the battlefield. He glared as he shouted at Yu Huang, “Demoness! What technique did you use?!” As he shouted, Xuanyuan Shen actually released his beast form on the spot.
It was a brown single-horned rhinoceros. Xuanyuan Shen’s cultivation had attained the Grand Master realm. His beast form was as enormous as a mountain, and he stood in the sky above the entire battlefield.
The entire battlefield turned dark in an instant.
The wrath of a Grand Master was boundlessly powerful!
The disciples below were unable to withstand this overbearing pressure and were forced to kneel on the ground.
The Grand Master’s pressure headed straight for Yu Huang. Yu Huang was just a late-stage Scholar Beast Tamer. She could not withstand the pressure.
She was forced to kneel in front of Xuanyuan Shen. The blood in her body churned, and she opened her mouth to spit out a mouthful of dark red blood.
Seeing this, Lin Jiansheng slapped the armrest of the armchair, causing it to shatter into countless pieces!
“Xuanyuan Shen! Don’t you dare bully my disciple!” With a furious roar, a scepter appeared in Lin Jiansheng’s right hand and a Psychic Sphere floated in his left.
Lin Jiansheng stood on the high platform and pointed his scepter at Xuanyuan Shen. With a sullen look, he said, “Xuanyuan Shen, I’m not dead yet. Are you trying to kill my disciple to vent your anger?”
At the same time, Mrs. Sheng also stood up and looked at Xuanyuan Shen with an unfriendly gaze. “Patriarch Xuanyuan, there are winners and losers in the competition between juniors. It’s inevitable that they will get injured. Patriarch Xuanyuan, please don’t bully others!”
The atmosphere instantly became confrontational.
Yin Mingchong closed his eyes when he saw this, and then a garuda appeared in the sky. The garuda roared towards the sky, and all the disciples covered their ears with pained expressions.
The rhinoceros in the sky also began to tremble. It stared at the giant roc with vigilance and fear.
Yin Mingchong stood on the roc, and his voice wasn’t loud, yet it spread throughout the surroundings. “Everyone, please don’t cause unnecessary trouble!” Currently, among the six major cultivation families, Sheng Lingfeng was the most capable. His cultivation was at Grand Master realm’s advanced stage, and it wouldn’t be long before he broke through to become a Prime Master.
Yin Mingchong was a late-stage Grand Master, and he was on the verge of breaking through to the peak of late-stage in the past two years. He was the most powerful family head apart from Sheng Lingfeng.
Under the pressure of Yin Mingchong’s power, both Lin Jiansheng and Xuanyuan Shen felt very uncomfortable.
Lin Jiansheng snorted and put away his scepter and Psychic Sphere. Xuanyuan Shen finally calmed down after realizing that this was the Yin Clan and not a place where he could behave atrociously. He glared at Lin Jiansheng before retracting his beast form.
Yin Mingchong withdrew his beast form and sat back down when he saw this.
Yin Cangsheng shot a glance at the servant, who hurriedly brought over a brand new armchair and placed it behind Lin Jiansheng. Lin Jiansheng, wary that Xuanyuan Shen would take the opportunity to take revenge on Yu Huang, sat down and crossed his legs, with his gaze never leaving Xuanyuan Shen.
As Xuanyuan Shen’s beast form was recalled, the Grand Master pressure that had been suppressing Yu Huang’s body disappeared.
Yu Huang wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. She looked at Xuanyuan Shen calmly and silently with her eyes devoid of resentment and hatred.
She knew better than anyone else the truth of the strong being respected. If you were strong, no one could do anything to you even if you committed murder and arson. If you were weak, you deserved to be trampled on like an ant.
Xuanyuan Shen had bullied her in front of everyone today because she was incapable.
Hating him was useless.
If she had the energy, she might as well focus on her cultivation and strive to become stronger as soon as possible so that she could trample on those who had bullied her before.
Yu Huang put away the grievance and hatred in her heart and bowed to Xuanyuan Shen. When she raised her head again, there was an appropriate apologetic look on her face. “Grand Master Xuanyuan, it was I who acted inappropriately and injured your young master. Yu Huang hereby apologizes to Young Master Xuanyuan.” Xuanyuan Shen coldly snorted. “What’s the use of apologizing! Demoness, what kind of evil do you cultivate?!”
Yu Huang didn’t say anything.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Jing held onto Xuanyuan Shen as he stood up.
He leaned on his father’s shoulder and looked at Yu Huang with a complicated gaze. At this moment, Xuanyuan Jing no longer looked at Yu Huang with the usual disdain and unwillingness. There was only helplessness and resignation.
Xuanyuan Jing shook his head and said weakly, “It’s my skills that are inferior. I, Xuanyuan Jing, concede defeat!” If he had been defeated because he underestimated Yu Huang the first time, he wouldn’t be able to find an excuse for the second time.
After recuperating at home for half a year, not only was Xuanyuan Jing cultivating his body, but he was also cultivating his mind. Only when he gradually calmed down did he understand how extreme and unreasonable he was before.
Xuanyuan Jing tried his best to stand up straight and took a step back to apologize to Yu Huang.
Seeing this, Yu Huang was obviously stunned.
Xuanyuan Jing bent down and didn’t raise his head. He said in a low voice, “Yu Huang, I admit that when you were still injured and hadn’t fully recovered, I ran to the hospital to break off the engagement with you, causing you to be slandered by others. I was heartless. I promised you that I wouldn’t bring my support up for the final battle, but I went back on my word during the final battle. I was untrustworthy.”
“It’s me, Xuanyuan Jing, who let you down.”
Hearing Xuanyuan Jing’s apology, Yu Huang was truly a little astonished. She, unsure if this fellow had truly realized his mistake and was sincerely apologizing, or was he just pretending, stared at Xuanyuan Jing with a scrutinizing gaze.
Xuanyuan Jing raised his head and looked at Yu Huang
Seeing Yu Huang’s eyes filled with suspicion, a bitter smile appeared on Xuanyuan Jing’s lips. He sighed and continued, “In the beginning, all my love for you was real. However, Yu Huang, feelings have a shelf life. A human’s heart cannot be satisfied.”
“I admit that I fell in love with someone else. I found you ugly after the accident. But no matter what, our grudges should be settled.”
Xuanyuan Jing raised his right hand, and there was a golden lock in his hand. It was the love lock he had given to Yu Huang when they got engaged.
Xuanyuan Jing used spirit energy to destroy the golden lock. He looked at Yu Huang with a complicated expression and muttered, “Yu Huang, we are even.”
Logically speaking, Yu Huang should have taken out her golden lock and destroyed it in front of everyone.
However, that golden lock had been left in the dormitory on the night of the fire. After that, the production team of “Gods Creation 101” had packed all her things and sent them back to the Yu family, but she had never taken them.
Unable to take out the golden lock and not wanting to be misunderstood, Yu Huang could only tell Xuanyuan Jing, “I lost the golden lock long ago.”
Hearing that, Xuanyuan Jing didn’t seem sad. He nodded and said, “It’s good that you lost it.” Xuanyuan Jing turned his head and said to Xuanyuan Shen, “Father, I was defeated today because I was useless. Don’t blame Yu Huang.”
Xuanyuan Shen snorted and couldn’t be bothered to look at Yu Huang again. He took out some healing medicine and fed it to Xuanyuan Jing. “Go down and heal yourself. Don’t embarrass me here!”
Xuanyuan Jing nodded and left the battle stage.
With Xuanyuan Jing’s defeat, this competition finally came to an end.
The final victors were Yu Huang, Yin Fu, Liuli Feng, Mo Qingfeng, Garo Lingyue, and a male disciple called Sheng Hui.
However, there were a total of seven rewards, and Yin Mingchong had the authority to select a disciple with an outstanding performance from the eliminated disciples to receive the rewards.
Yin Mingchong’s gaze swept across Xuanyuan Jing, Sheng Yang, and Na Luo. In the end, he pointed at Na Luo. “This student called Na Luo eliminated eight opponents by herself. She deserves to be ranked seventh.”
Upon hearing this, Na Luo wagged her tail and came to Yu Huang’s side.
