Chapter 161 - Fat Lambs

Indeed, he lived up to his name as the best disciple of one of the top three sects.

It was uncountable how many better-than-average Harmonization Realm disciples there were here that put themselves into Qi Zining's situation, and the results...

He's too fast! There isn't even time to unravel any of his strategies.

It reminded Lu Mingshu of the strengthening seal that could freeze the opponent's mystic force.

If she still had that with her, she might've still had a small chance of winning over Wei Chunqiu. Without it...

Nine Jade Palace had really declined too much. During the recent Heavenly Door competition, Kuai Xin was said to have a good chance to break through to the Spirit Realm in a few years' time, similar to Wei Chunqiu. However, the difference in their actual ability was huge. With Lu Mingshu's current ability, she had a 70-80% of defeating Kuai Xin, but if she went against Wei Chunqiu, it probably wasn't even 20%.

After Wei Chunqiu kick-started the competition, other disciples from the strong sects started to submit their names as well.

One by one, the names were announced. Each time any of them went on stage, there would be disciples cheering loudly for them, and as they fought, they proved themselves worthy of those cheers.

During the fourth day, the challenger's fight had entered a weird stage.

Despite all the experts coming up to challenge, the matches weren't as interesting as the first three days.

The matches ended too quickly because of the huge difference between the two fighters' abilities.

Not even a day had passed before there was a huge change to the name list.

The names who were in the higher ranks during the first three days could no longer be seen on the list as they were replaced by famous names.

That's how it should be! Most of the spectators looked at the list with satisfaction.

The Qilin Festival – a gathering of the best – should be like this.

"Yu Chen from Fallen Skies Valley challenging Lu Mingshu from Nine Jade Palace!"

Silence took over the venue as the two names were announced.

"What the hell?" somebody muttered in irritation. "Can't they just let us watch the good matches in peace?"

His fellow disciple patted him on the shoulder and shook his head. "You're stupid. Yu Chen from Fallen Skies Valley is unlike those previous random guys."

"Fallen Skies Valley... Yu Chen.... Oh! Isn't he the...?" the guy gasped as he realized who it was.

Fallen Skies Valley was situated in Bei Ming, and they were the best sect there. Thus, Yu Chen could be considered quite well-known.

He wasn't as good as Yue Lingyin, but he wasn't far either. He entered the Harmonization Realm seven years ago, and he was the best disciple in Fallen Skies Valley.

In other words, he was more-or-less expected to be in the New Generation Ranking. Even if he didn't get in, he would only be a few ranks short.

Him challenging Lu Mingshu was no doubt for a different reason than the previous challengers – a real fight.

"Yu Chen?" In Amethyst Phoenix Pavilion's tent, Yue Lingyin narrowed her eyes to get a better look. "That guy certainly has issues, eh?"

Her straightforwardness left her junior sister speechless. "Senior Sister Yue..." That's another sect's best disciple, can't you give him some face?
