She raised her hand, which had been blown off by Feng Siyue. Despite taking her father’s pills, it had only grown back halfway, and it would take some more time to fully regenerate.
Moreover, when the new limb had started growing, the pain had been unbearable. If she hadn’t wanted to see Feng Siyue being brutally defeated, she would have gone back to the sect with her father long ago!
She wouldn’t be satisfied until she saw Feng Siyue being humiliated.
“Senior Sister Liu, don’t worry, I won’t let everyone down. A few days ago, Han Yue came to our Vast Academy to cause trouble. Today, I will defeat her fair and square.”
Feng Wanqing said with righteous indignation.
The four Vast Academy students beside her nodded in agreement.
They were the best students from the Heaven Class, and their combined strength could rival even a strong warrior at the Martial Spirit realm. A mere woman like Han Yue would surely not return from today’s match!
“Causing trouble? Tsk, your Vast Academy is really good at turning black into white. Did I cause trouble? I clearly came to reason with you, but your academy’s people attacked me without distinguishing right from wrong. I had no choice but to fight back.”
Feng Siyue, holding her white plum blossom oil-paper umbrella, walked onto the field at a leisurely pace. Her tone was lazy and light, like a cat basking in the sun, gently scratching with her paw.
Her every movement was graceful. Even though her face was not visible, standing opposite Feng Wanqing, she did not lose in aura. Instead, she exuded a unique charm.
Moreover, she seemed to be a bit taller than Feng Wanqing, with a more graceful figure. Her gaze towards Feng Wanqing carried a sense of disdain.
“The arena is not the place to settle personal grudges. Now, let me announce the rules for this match!” At this moment, the same elderly man stood up again.
Like the previous two matches, this one also allowed the use of only the treasures or techniques from one’s own sect.
The difference this time is that the match allows the use of companion beasts in battle.
Feng Siyue let out a scornful laugh. The targeting was a bit too obvious, wasn’t it? Was the Cultivator Alliance not even concerned about their reputation anymore?
“Wow! This rule is clearly aimed at Han Yue! Xuan Shang, do you know what her companion beast is? Can she win this match?” Lu Chen asked, both angry and curious.
Di Xuan Shang said coldly, “You’ll find out soon enough.”
How would he know what this woman’s companion beast was? He didn’t even know what she looked like, and even her name might not be real, just like his own.
Di Xuan Shang suddenly felt a bit resentful.
Although everyone knew that the rule was unfair to Feng Siyue, most people were excited.
“Heavens, if we can see the companion beasts in battle, will we be lucky enough to see the Lunar Ghost Divine Beast today!”
“Really? Will Miss Wanqing let the Lunar Ghost come out for us to feast our eyes on?”
“Wow! So exciting, I’ve never seen a legendary divine beast before!”
Listening to the cheers from below, Feng Wanqing’s lips curved into a smug arc, her eyes filled with a sense of superiority as she looked at Feng Siyue.
It was as if she was saying, “I have a divine beast. Do you have the qualifications to compare with me?”
Feng Siyue couldn’t help but find it amusing that a thief like her could be so proud. It was utterly ridiculous.
At this moment, Feng Wanqing actually spoke up, “Miss Han Yue, I hope you can show your true strength. Otherwise, you are not worthy of me summoning my Lunar Ghost to fight you. As the saying goes, ‘Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?’ It may sound harsh, but it’s true, don’t you think, Miss Han Yue?”
Feng Siyue yawned and said impatiently, “You’re not even worthy of me using my full strength. That’s all I have to say. Enough with your nonsense. No matter how much you try to stall, I will make sure you lose miserably.”
Feng Wanqing’s face darkened. “What arrogance!”
“Some people are like frogs in a well, thinking that when others speak the truth, they are boasting. It just shows how little you’ve seen of the world,” Feng Siyue said faintly, which made Feng Wanqing even angrier.
“Such shameless boasting!”
“Miss Wanqing is the strongest genius girl in Vast Academy. Does she think she’s invincible just because she won two matches by luck?”
“Senior Sister Wanqing, please teach her a lesson and show her who’s boss!”
“Senior Sister Wanqing, let’s team up and make her lose convincingly!”
The disciples on the field all wanted to team up with Feng Wanqing. Her team already had five members, and she only needed three more. In the end, she chose the three disciples with the highest cultivation levels to form an eight-member team.
On the other hand, Feng Siyue, who had offended Feng Wanqing, had no one willing to team up with her. Most of the disciples even looked at her with disdain, probably because of her arrogant words, thinking she was boasting and full of herself.
She was actually quite pleased about this. If someone had teamed up with her, she would have had to divide her attention to protect them.
Seeing that Feng Siyue was alone, Feng Wanqing’s expression became even more smug.
“Miss Han Yue, I’m not a vengeful person. Since no one is willing to team up with you, I’ve decided to face you alone and not take advantage of numbers.”
“Miss Wanqing, you’re amazing!”
The crowd looked at her with admiration. Feng Wanqing was so kind. Despite being humiliated by this woman, she was still willing to show kindness in return.
Feng Siyue chuckled, “No, it’s better if you all come at me together. That way, no one can say I’m bullying the weak.”
“Don’t push your luck!” a student from Vast Academy on the field coldly shouted.
Feng Wanqing gently waved her hand and said, “It’s alright, junior brother. Let’s not stoop to her level.”
Saying that, she stepped forward alone, holding a snow-white sword in her hand.
“This is the coming-of-age gift my second royal brother gave me—the Qing Shuang Sword. I rarely use it in battle, but today, I consider you a worthy opponent. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
Although she spoke politely, in her heart, she was thinking about how to slit Feng Siyue’s throat and make her die in agony.
Second royal brother?
The Second Prince of the Shengyuan Empire?
For some reason, Feng Siyue suddenly felt a bit annoyed.
When Feng Siyue was annoyed, her eyes turned cold.
The scorching sun above made her even more irritable, and she just wanted to finish the fight quickly, making Feng Wanqing, the pretentious one, suffer a major setback in life.
So, she also took out an iron sword. This sword was ordinary, and there were even rust spots on the blade.
As soon as she took out the sword, it caused a burst of laughter.
“Haha! A disciple from the number one sword sect can only wield such an ordinary rusty sword!”
“Be precise, it’s the former number one sword sect! The Tianmen Sword Sect has long been destroyed. I don’t know why she’s still struggling.”
“This iron sword doesn’t even seem to have a rank. It’s just an ordinary iron sword. I bet it can’t even cut through a tree!”
They weren’t wrong. This was a broken sword Feng Siyue had randomly pulled out from the sword graveyard. It was so tattered that she couldn’t be bothered to clean off the demonic energy, leaving it as it was.
But she didn’t need a good sword because she herself was a sharp blade, and she specialized in killing those who were full of themselves!
“Make your move,” she said lazily, raising the sword and pointing it at Feng Wanqing.
