I want to go back to my original world and live an ordinary life.

Qiuyan's luck was good this time, but Ning Xueshuang's luck was not good. She drew Chen Yue, who was level 195. Although Qiuyan felt that Ning Xueshuang should still have some hidden strength, it would definitely be difficult for her to fight against Chen Yue, who was level 195. Qiuyan didn't want to care about Ning Xueshuang's affairs, or Qiuyan hoped that Ning Xueshuang would lose to Chen Yue, so that she would not be so arrogant.

After the draw, the second round of the competition began. Qiu Yan and Lin Yu were the first to go on stage. This time, no one in the audience shouted that the Golden Bell Turtle would lose! Because although they were unwilling, Qiu Yan's strength was obvious. Baili Yuyang, who was at level 200, lost to him, not to mention Lin Yu, who was at level 170. There was basically no suspense! In fact, just as the audience thought, due to the huge gap in level, Lin Yu was defeated by Qiu Yan before he lasted long. Qiu Yan was the first to enter the top three.

In the second match of the second round, Ning Xueshuang faced Chen Yue. Since the strength of both sides was not much different, the battle was very intense. In terms of strength, both sides seemed to be evenly matched and each suffered damage. This match lasted for more than half an hour, and was finally declared over when Chen Yue's spiritual power was exhausted first. In this way, the top three of the match were basically determined. They were Jin Ling'er, Ning Xueshuang and Bai Xiaoyuan. Although it was unlikely for Bai Xiaoyuan to enter the top three with her strength, she was lucky and got into the top three. The rules of the Tiansai are also very special, and luck is also counted as strength. In theory, Chen Yue and Lin Yu, who were defeated in this situation, are qualified to challenge Bai Xiaoyuan, but the Tiansai does not have such a rule. Everyone can only lose once, so even if you know that one of the top three is not as strong as you, you can't do anything about it.

After the top three were determined, the next step was to have a ranking battle for the top three. Bai Xiaoyuan took the initiative to withdraw from this stage because she knew her own strength. She couldn't beat either Qiu Yan or Ning Xueshuang, so she took the initiative to give up the ranking battle. Anyway, she was now ranked in the top three and could get the opportunity to enter the secret realm. As for the ranking, she didn't care.

Due to Bai Xiaoyuan's withdrawal, the first and second place of the Tiansai will be decided between Qiu Yan and Ning Xueshuang. At this time, Qin Lao announced the suspension of the competition, on the grounds that the Ninth Prince was going to have a meal, and the finals would be held after the Ninth Prince finished his meal. No one objected to the suspension of the competition for the Ninth Prince's meal, after all, no one dared to say anything bad about the royal family. Qiu Yan was determined to win the first place, otherwise he would have to compensate Jin Ling'er with 500 million gold coins. Although he was very confident about winning the first place, in order to save some trouble, Qiu Yan took advantage of the suspension to sit next to Ning Xueshuang. At this time, only Bai Xiaoyuan and the two of them were left on the ten chairs. The other seven had lost the game and were not qualified or had the face to sit here anymore.

Qiu Yan sat on the empty chair next to Ning Xueshuang, glanced at Ning Xueshuang who was resting with her eyes closed, or rather recuperating from her injuries, and said, "Miss Xueshuang, can I discuss something with you?" Qiu Yan used a negotiating tone. After all, he had some understanding of Ning Xueshuang's character. She was a typical person who would not be persuaded by soft or hard tactics. But compared to the hard approach, Qiu Yan felt that it was more appropriate to use the soft approach first, and then use the hard approach if that didn't work.

"What? Are you here to discuss with me about how to be gentle with you, or do you want to withdraw from the competition?" Ning Xueshuang said calmly without even opening her eyes. Qiu Yan felt that her attitude was already very good, and didn't Ning Xueshuang know what was going on? With his overwhelming strength, he was almost certain to win first place, so was there any need to discuss such a thing with her?

So after listening to Ning Xueshuang's words, Qiu Yan didn't want to play soft with this kind of person anymore, and said directly to Ning Xueshuang, "Originally, I wanted to talk to you nicely and give you a chance to admit defeat, but now it seems that you have no chance. When I get on stage, I will knock you down with lightning speed!"

Ning Xueshuang didn't quite understand what Qiu Yan meant by the swiftness of thunder and lightning, but he understood that Qiu Yan came here to make her admit defeat, so Ning Xueshuang opened her eyes and looked at Qiu Yan, and asked curiously, "Are you so confident that you can beat me?"

“Nonsense!” Qiu Yan first said to Ning Xueshuang in a bad mood after hearing what she said, and then continued, “To tell you the truth, my current real strength is about level 250. You absolutely cannot beat me, so if you know what’s good for you, admit your mistake now. I’ll give you another chance to admit defeat. Otherwise, don’t blame me if I hurt you later!”

Ning Xueshuang smiled after hearing Qiu Yan's words. Actually, she didn't care whether she got first place or not. She just wanted to teach Qiu Yan a lesson. But she didn't expect Qiu Yan to teach her a lesson in advance. This made her feel ridiculous. But at the same time, she was also very curious. Logically, Qiu Yan's purpose of participating in the Tiansai was to enter the top three of the Tiansai. Now his goal has been achieved, but why is he still obsessed with the ranking competition? Could it be that his purpose is the same as hers, just to show her some color? Thinking of this, Ning Xueshuang looked at Qiu Yan with interest and asked, "Your purpose of participating in the Tiansai should be just to get the qualification to enter the secret realm. Now your goal should have been achieved, but why are you still obsessed with the ranking? Do you just want to show me some color?"

After listening to Ning Xueshuang's words, Qiu Yan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Yes, I really want to teach you a lesson, to let you know that although this world is a world where the strong prey on the weak, you should not bully the young and poor! Things change over time, and I just want to let you know that the person you threatened with your strength before has surpassed you!"

"Oh!" Ning Xue Shuang nodded after hearing Qiu Yan's words, without much reaction, but continued to ask, "Is that all? Is there any other reason?" Although Ning Xue Shuang didn't spend much time with Qiu Yan, she was still very clear about what Qiu Yan had done along the way. She felt that if this was the only reason, Qiu Yan should not be too serious with her. There must be other reasons.

"Of course there are other reasons!" Qiu Yan said cheerfully, and then continued, "My friend bought that I can get first place today, so I must get first place today, otherwise I will face a huge compensation."

Ning Xueshuang became interested after hearing Qiu Yan's reason, and asked with a smile, "The friend you are talking about should be the eldest daughter of the Jin family, right? How much did she buy it for?"

Qiu Yan was not curious about how Ning Xue Shuang knew Jin Ling Er's identity, because Jin Ling Er's identity was not deliberately hidden, and he could find out with a little inquiry. So Qiu Yan did not care, and just nodded to answer Ning Xue Shuang's other question, saying, "I bought five million gold coins, and if I win, I can get five hundred million gold coins!" Qiu Yan's tone was a little complicated when he said this, because there was another sentence he didn't say, that is, if he lost, he would have to pay five hundred million gold coins, which was something he dared not even think about.

"Five million?" This Miss Jin is really capable! This much money must be all the wealth of the Jin family!

After hearing what Ning Xueshuang said, Qiu Yan rolled his eyes at Ning Xueshuang, and then said, "She has no money at all. Her five million was exchanged for the spiritual weapon I gave her, so it's my money!"

"Why did you give her so many spiritual weapons?" Ning Xueshuang was a little puzzled. Although she knew that Qiu Yan and Jin Ling'er had some relationship, the relationship between them should not be so good!

"Dowry!" Qiu Yan blurted out, and then added, "I gave her all the things my master left me as a betrothal gift, but this spendthrift woman spent them before she could do anything. I really regret giving him those things!"

Qiu Yan felt a little regretful and angry, but Ning Xueshuang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry after hearing what Qiu Yan said. She looked at Qiu Yan and said, "I don't think she is the one who is wasting money, but you! If your master knew that you gave all his life savings to a woman as a betrothal gift, I guess he would be so mad at you that he would die!" Ning Xueshuang knew Qiu Yan's master, but she didn't know that Master Qiu Yan was dead. In other words, except for the Lord of the West, no one else knew that Master Qiu Yan was dead.

Hearing Ning Xueshuang's joke, Qiu Yan didn't say anything, but just glanced at Ning Xueshuang. Ning Xueshuang saw that Qiu Yan didn't say anything else, so she thought for a while, figured out some things in her mind, and then continued to say to Qiu Yan, "How about this! Let's make a deal. I will take the initiative to admit defeat after I go on stage, and let you win first place, and then you will give me 100 million of the money you won after winning first place. What do you think?"

Ning Xueshuang is different from Qiu Yan. Although Ning Xueshuang is the disciple of the Lord of the West, her money and other things are all earned by herself. She has never asked the Lord of the West for anything, and the Lord of the West has never given her much, just a long sword, which is the one in her hand. So she is still short of money. After all, cultivation is still very expensive. If you want to get some resources, gold coins are definitely indispensable. So she wants to let Qiu Yan go at the cost of getting some gold coins from Qiu Yan, so that she doesn't have to calculate when buying things needed for cultivation in the future.
