âJust refuse it, Lou Qianxue. Thereâs no need to ruin your future because of an impulse to win!â the other students advised Lou Qianxue.
Raising her chin, Mu Bailing mockingly looked at her. âLou Qianxue, two years ago, you were just a useless piece of trash who escaped at the last minute. If you refuse to accept my challenge today, I wonât be surprised either.
âAfter all, cowards will always be cowards! The most thatâll happen is that everyone will recognize you for who you truly are.â
Lou Qianxueâs expression darkened as she glared at Mu Bailing.
âWhat are you looking at? Coward! You donât even dare to accept my challenge, yet you have the audacity to claim that you ranked top at the Fenghua Banquet. What a joke!â
When everyone heard that, they heaved a sigh of relief. âLooks like Lou Qianxue is not dumb. She knows how to avoid trouble. Although itâs a bit humiliating, at least she saved her future...â
However...
At the next moment.
âWhat if you lost?â A frosty voice suddenly reverberated in the air.
âHuh?â It stunned Mu Bailing, then she could not help but burst out laughing. âLose? How is it possible? Iâve trained at the Imperial Academy for two years. Do you think that Iâll lose to a useless piece of trash who merely relied on pills to increase her cultivation? Are you pulling my leg?â
âPfft!â Lou Xiaoxiao stifled a laugh. âThere are always winners and losers in a battle. If thereâs a possibility that Qianxue will lose, thereâs a possibility that youâll lose too!â
âYeah!â The juniors of the Lou family shot cold glares at Mu Bailing as a strange expression crept onto their faces.
âFine. Since youâre so insistent, Iâll do the same thing as her. If I lose, Iâll also cripple my cultivation. Howâs that? Are you satisfied?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMu Bailing.â Lou Xiaoxiao looked at her with a complex gaze. âIâll give you one last chance. Are you sure that you want to bet on your cultivation and challenge Qianxue?â
Mu Bailing snorted. âGive me one last chance? You sound like youâre being kind to me. Well, thanks, but no thanks. I donât need it, Lou Xiaoxiao! Save your kindness for Lou Qianxue.â
After that, she glanced at Lou Qianxue. âSo? Are you going to accept my challenge?â
âSince someone has a death wish, I naturally have nothing else to say. Do you want to fight here or in the training hall?â
âThe training hall? Thereâs no need for that! Lou Qianxue, I can defeat you with a single move. Why should we waste time going to the training hall?â
Lou Xiaoxiao chuckled with a strange expression. âA single move? Mu Bailing, you really know how to exaggerate. I wonder who was sent flying away after being hit by Qianxue just now.â
âYou!â Mu Bailingâs expression turned vicious. âThat was a sneak attack! I wanted to hit you, but she took the opportunity to attack me! This time, Iâll let her know that she can never defeat me in an honest and open fight.â
As she spoke, she raised her arms and bellowed, âWhite Snake Spitting Core!â
Her sword instantly morphed into a flash of light and attacked Lou Qianxue.
âWhite Snake Spitting Core! Itâs a Mystic level sword technique recorded in the schoolâs library! Mu Bailing has learned a Mystic level sword technique. It means that Mu Xueying most likely used his points to exchange it for her, right?â
âItâs so good to have such an impressive brother. Iâm so envious!â
âItâs rare to see a Mystic level martial arts technique outside of the Imperial city. It would be hard to counter it with an average martial arts technique. Furthermore, Lou Qianxue probably increased her cultivation with pills. Looks like Lou Qianxue will definitely lose this match!â
âWhat a pity! Sheâs such a talented alchemist. Only if she werenât dumb enough to offend Mu Bailing, she would...â
Everyone was discussing, when...
Suddenly!
