The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

As the first one to draw lots, Hu Xingtong drew opponents who put little pressure on him in the first few rounds. He was very lucky, so he didn't use any tricks and won directly.

At present, no points have been deducted, so Hu Xingtong still firmly holds the first place.

In contrast, Xiao Yuheng's luck was not so good. In the third round of the draw, he was directly facing the master of Wanshoumen who owned four magical beasts and pets at a young age.

"Xiao Yuheng of the Fanyun Sect versus Nan Ling of the Wanshou Sect."

Huh? Nan Ling is actually from the Myriad Beasts Sect.

Hearing the name, Hu Xingtong looked up and looked at the two people in the venue. He happened to see Nan Ling's appearance. The person was wearing a dark green long skirt, holding a whip-like weapon in her hand, and had a very refreshing ponytail. From a distance, she was also a beautiful woman with a good figure.

"I don't know who will win between Fourth Junior Brother and her?" A golden light flashed in Hu Xingtong's eyes. Nan Ling's cultivation was comparable to Xiao Yuheng's, and behind her were four divine beasts in the early stage of the Golden Core. From this point of view, Xiao Yuheng's chances of winning were not very high.

"Perhaps Fourth Junior Brother has a chance to win." Sun Ze's voice came from the side. Hu Xingtong looked at him suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

Sun Ze looked at her with a smile, "Junior Sister, you don't know, but when Master came to teach you that day, he taught you a set of boxing techniques that would make you stronger when facing a strong opponent and weaker when facing a weak one. He also said that this boxing technique could potentially improve your potential when facing pressure from a strong enemy. So, I guess, if Fourth Junior Brother really felt the pressure in this battle, he would also use that boxing technique to break through."

"Even if he doesn't win, this battle will be beneficial and harmless to him." Han Qianyu echoed immediately afterwards.

Hu Xingtong drew a bye today, and the next match was against Tan Yuruo, so now there were only Hu Xingtong, Sun Ze, and Han Qianyu in the stands. At this moment, Hu Xingtong looked at the indifferent expressions of her senior brother and sister, and inexplicably believed in Xiao Yuheng's strength. In fact, no matter whether Xiao Yuheng could win or not, Hu Xingtong only cared about who won in the end. After all, she was competing for the championship, and only if she won would she have the opportunity to compete with the other party.

The battle on the field has begun. Xiao Yuheng was the first to attack, choosing to attack with his bare hands.

As a martial artist, Xiao Yuheng possessed immense strength. His fists carried a gust of wind, a faint whiff of thunder. Nan Ling, on the other hand, handled the blow with ease. With a single flick of her whip, a sharp crack of air pierced through the air, she easily neutralized Xiao Yuheng's attack and counterattacked. Her movements were far more agile and precise than Xiao Yuheng's, even carrying strands of hidden energy with each whip swing.

Xiao Yuheng dodged Nan Ling's counterattack with a flash of his body, narrowly avoiding it. He was secretly amazed at her strength. The clever concealment of her hidden energy showed she was a formidable martial artist. Xiao Yuheng knew that with his current strength alone, defeating Nan Ling, who possessed four divine beasts, was nearly impossible. Perhaps he needed to adopt a more circuitous tactic, depleting her strength as much as possible.

Just as he was about to adjust his strategy and go all out, Nan Ling suddenly stopped, formed seals with his hands, and muttered something.

Xiao Yuheng secretly cried out in his heart that something was wrong. The opponent's strategy changed faster than his.

Immediately afterwards, four powerful auras surged from around her, and four mythical beasts of different shapes appeared out of thin air, namely a fire phoenix, an ice dragon, a thunder leopard and a white tiger. They surrounded Nan Ling with a fierce momentum.

There was a sudden burst of exclamations from the audience. These four divine beasts were not only mighty in appearance, but their strength had also reached the early stage of the Golden Core. Especially the white tiger, with a faint green light mist on its body, it was obviously the strongest among the four divine beasts. When these four divine beasts joined forces, even Xiao Yuheng felt unprecedented pressure.

"Come on, let me see your true strength!" Nan Ling curled up a confident smile, and the four divine beasts, under her command, attacked Xiao Yuheng one by one.

Xiao Yuheng retreated violently, trying to avoid the attack of the divine beasts, but the four beasts coordinated perfectly, attacking him like a shadow, making it difficult for him to escape. He made up his mind and decided not to hold back. Spiritual energy surged within him, his eyes instantly blazing like torches, and a powerful aura emanated from him.

"Chuiyun!" Xiao Yuheng shouted, and a brilliant purple light suddenly shone from above his right hand, which was raised in a feint. Then, a massive purple staff descended from the sky, striking his right hand with fierce force.

With the appearance of the Chuiyun Stick Blade, the entire arena seemed to feel its power. Suddenly, a strong wind swept in, sweeping up countless dust particles, forming a small sandstorm. At the same time, bursts of thunder echoed in the sky, as if everything in the world was shaken and resonated by this powerful aura.

The appearance of the Chuiyun Staff Blade stunned the audience, who marveled at its power and dominance. Even a disciple in the stands recognized the staff blade and exclaimed, "This is Guxing's second creation, the second of those three ultimate fifth-grade artifacts! Ahhhh, how lucky is he? How did he manage to snatch it up!!!"

"Holy crap—is this true? It's really Chuiyun. Two of the three from Fanyun Sect have already taken Guxing's weapons. The remaining fifth-grade one wouldn't be in Fanyun Sect too, right?!"

The frenzy in the stands had nothing to do with the arena. On the field, Xiao Yuheng gripped his Chuiyun staff tightly, feeling the surge of fighting spirit it conveyed, his gaze growing ever more resolute. He took a deep breath, his spiritual energy resonating with the Chuiyun staff and the sword, and an unprecedented power surged within him.

"Nan Ling, let's see which is more powerful, the Chuiyun in my hand or your divine beast!" Xiao Yuheng's voice was particularly clear in the strong wind, and his figure was looming in the storm, like a god of war about to awaken.

Faced with Xiao Yuheng's sudden change, Nan Ling's eyes became solemn. She didn't expect that Xiao Yuheng could actually take out such a powerful weapon, but she was not afraid. Under her command, the four beasts attacked more fiercely. The fire of the fire phoenix, the ice of the ice dragon, the lightning of the thunder leopard, and the strong wind of the white tiger, the four elements intertwined together to form an impenetrable attack network.

Xiao Yuheng held a Chuiyun stick and knife in his hand, leaping and dodging on the battlefield. Every swing of the stick was accompanied by a momentum like a tsunami, and he fought with the four divine beasts to a standstill.

During the battle, Xiao Yuheng gradually found his rapport with the Chuiyun Staff Blade. Each of his moves became smoother and more powerful. During a fierce clash with White Tiger, he suddenly unleashed his might, and the Chuiyun Staff Blade, laced with purple lightning, struck White Tiger's flank. The tiger let out a deafening roar and involuntarily took a few steps back.

"Hah!" Xiao Yuheng shouted loudly, his body suddenly accelerated, and at the same time he retracted Chuiyun, rushing towards the white tiger like an arrow. At the same time, he clenched his fists, and his fists flashed with light intertwined with lightning and flames. It was the set of boxing taught by his master - Thunder and Fire Fist!

Facing Xiao Yuheng's full-strength attack, Nan Ling secretly felt that something was wrong. She quickly flipped her hands and formed seals. The three divine beasts instantly pounced on the white tiger. Just when everyone thought that the three divine beasts were going to attack Xiao Yuheng, the three divine beasts surprisingly merged with the white tiger and turned into a huge white tiger with four different colors of light. The white tiger stood in the center of the arena, let out a deafening roar, and pounced on Xiao Yuheng.

In the stands, everyone was shocked because they had not expected that these four mythical beasts with different attributes could actually merge.

Tan Luo, who was watching this scene from the high platform, frowned and looked at Ning Zihe beside him and asked, "Have you found your secret technique?"

Ning Zihe still had a hint of smile between his eyebrows. He turned around and replied, "No, this is the inheritance that my disciple found himself. It can be regarded as completing a part of the secret technique."

Hearing this, Tan Luo nodded and continued to watch the competition on the stage.

On the field, Xiao Yuheng frowned at the suddenly fused White Tiger. The White Tiger's power had surpassed the late Jindan stage, making it formidable. However, this did not deter Xiao Yuheng from advancing. Chuiyun, which had instantly appeared in his hand, charged forward with untouchable might. The collision between Chuiyun and the divine beast created a tremendous roar that shook the entire arena. However, before this overwhelming force, Xiao Yuheng's offensive seemed powerless, and he was sent flying backwards.

"Hmph, not bad. Come again!" For a moment, the fighting spirit surged in his heart, and Xiao Yuheng urgently wanted to fight with this fused divine beast.
