The eldest sister just wanted to give up, while the spirit swords vied to recognize her as their mas

Sect cooperation has happened before in previous competitions, but cooperation between the second-ranked and tenth-to-last sects is unheard of.

"What's wrong with Xie Wan? Why would she choose to cooperate with the Boundless Sword Sect? Isn't she afraid of losing her second place?"

"The Xuantian Sect was already strong, and with the addition of the Ten Thousand Beasts Valley, the outcome was already a foregone conclusion. Xie Wan made a mistake in this move, falling from second place to third."

"I was guaranteed second place, but alas, I was too young and impulsive."

Every word spoken reached the ears of the Lingyue Sect disciples on the stage. They had reservations about Xie Wan's actions, but dared not say anything due to her status.

Yun Fuzhao walked to Xie Wan's side and said, "I heard that you are a sound cultivator. You can cooperate with the spirit beast under Fang Wenxia's command."

She gripped Wuji tightly. "Wang Liang, you and I will lead the charge. Shang Jia and Yi Nong will coordinate the damage output, and Kang Cheng will cut through the backline."

Yun Fuzhao had studied military strategy and tactics, but he had only played similar games.

She said she was eating sunflower seeds, but actually she was also observing the strength of several sects.

Qiu Su and Xie Wan have similar roles, both being ranged attackers, while Wen Yan, like her, is a frontline fighter.

It's worth mentioning that they hadn't gone all out in the previous fights; they were all from major sects, and most of them still had many trump cards up their sleeves.

Yun Fuzhao touched the ground with his feet, lifted his body off the ground, and unleashed a sword strike at Yu Nian'er and the others with unstoppable force.

She had mastered the first move of the Void Dragon Roar technique to perfection.

This sword strike was not to be underestimated. Wen Yan was the first to draw his sword and block her attack.

A massive impact swept across the entire arena, and the elders below immediately erected a barrier to protect the safety of the other disciples.

Yun Fuzhao's arm went numb from the shock; as expected of the male lead, he actually caught it directly.

His current cultivation level is probably about the same as hers.

The scene quickly reached a fever pitch. Xie Wan held the jade pipa, her fingers moving rapidly, sending waves of sound towards the Xuan Tian Sect. Just as they were about to reach them, they were broken by the rolling sound of the flute.

Qiu Su is a practitioner of both sound cultivation and beast taming. The flute he holds is entirely black and is also a superior magical artifact.

Fang Wenxia released the two-winged lion-tiger beast, and the enormous spirit beast trampled holes in the arena.

"Roar--"

A deafening roar mingled with Xie Wan's pipa music, creating a surging wave of sound. Qiu Su's flute playing gradually lost ground in the confrontation.

The sound waves were about to reach the disciples when a mournful phoenix cry rang out.

A blue shadow hovered above Yu Nian'er's head, its tail feathers reflecting beautiful colors in the light.

"Hiss—A Xuan-rank divine beast!"

"You've really made something of yourself! You actually got to see the Azure Divine Phoenix in your lifetime. As expected of a Xuan-rank spirit beast, it looks so classy."

Fengming joined in with the flute music, and the situation instantly reversed, with the two being knocked back several steps.

On the other side, Shang Jia and Yi Nong's situation was not very optimistic either. Their opponents were both in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. At first, they could fight back, but as time went on, they began to feel powerless.

As time went by, the Boundless Sword Sect and the Lingyue Sect gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.

Knowing that this couldn't go on, Yun Fuzhao swung his sword to slash Wen Yan away and then released the Bloodthirsty Lotus.

"go."

The Bloodthirsty Lotus suddenly grew several times its original size. The lotus, which was originally the size of a palm, grew to the size of a bear in the blink of an eye, and its thick roots surged like snakes.

The Bloodthirsty Lotus has a large root system, and with its addition, the situation on Shangjia and Yi Nong's side has improved a lot.

"As expected of an ancient plant, its power is terrifying. I heard that this thing can parasitize, and once it parasitizes you, you will be sucked dry in just a few seconds."

"This is clearly an evil creature. Can such a monstrous thing really be used in the competition? What if these disciples are all parasitized?"

Chang Shen, an elder of the Xuantian Sect, had clearly noticed the problem as well. He said sternly, "Yun Fuzhao, you can't use this evil object! This is a competition, not a killing!"

Qu Wangzhi: "Elder Chang, your interference in the competition is biased. Moreover, this Bloodthirsty Lotus has no tendency to parasitize at all."

Just as he said, the Bloodthirsty Lotus simply uses its roots as a whip, striking whichever it doesn't like.

Seeing that he could have it but not being able to, the Bloodthirsty Lotus was also very annoyed, and vented his anger on these disciples.

Seeing this, Chang Shen didn't dare to speak again. He just kept his eyes fixed on the Bloodthirsty Lotus, ready to act immediately if it showed any intention of parasitizing him.

Yu Nian'er raised her hand, "Shennong, go."

The Azure Phoenix cried out and flew towards the Bloodthirsty Lotus, its yellow beak opening to spew out bursts of azure flames.

The Bloodthirsty Lotus was terrified and twisted its roots to dodge.

It was too busy taking care of itself to help Shang Jia and the others.

Yun Fuzhao touched the jade pendant on her wrist. "It's your turn to perform."

Jiaoyu rubbed her wrist, then flew into the sky. Its white figure grew larger and stood in front of the Bloodthirsty Lotus. It roared and swallowed the flames in one gulp.

The Azure Phoenix was thrown to the east, and the bird caught it to the east, creating a circus-like performance.

After eating it, they would pretend to burp and then spit out flames several times larger than the fire.

"I've witnessed firsthand that spirit beasts follow their masters."

"A house can be rebuilt after it collapses, but this one is so old that it can't be rebuilt anymore."

"Hahaha, this is the first time I've seen the word 'speechless' on the face of a spirit beast."

Yun Fuzhao looked at Wen Yan again, his brows furrowed, looking impatient.

He formed hand seals, and giant golden hands appeared behind him. "Divine Wind Hands, go!"

The hand moved with incredible speed, leaving Yun Fuzhao unable to keep up. He was struck in the chest, staggered back dozens of steps, and felt a metallic taste rise in his throat.

He's unleashed his ultimate move, so Yun Fuzhao shouldn't hold back his trump cards either.

She gripped the Limitless Sword and held it horizontally before her eyes. "Sword Shadow Splitting Light Technique, activate!"

In an instant, a series of cyan swords rose up around her; they were the phantoms of Wuji. Yun Fuzhao raised her sword, the tip pointing at Wen Yan, and the phantoms all pointed at him as well.

Amidst the flashing blades and the clash of swords, the phantom and the giant hand collided.

"Oh my god, what's going on? It's making me sweat."

"What is the origin of this sword technique? I've never heard of it before. Does the Boundless Sword Sect have so many treasures in its library?"

"I have a feeling that Wen Yan is no match for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, his large hand was pierced by the long sword, and a series of sword shadows rushed towards Wen Yan.

His face turned cold, and he swung his sword to try and break through, but the sword wind passed through the sword shadow. Wen Yan was stunned, thinking it was an illusion, but his cheek was solidly slashed.

A bright red gash was left on his face.

"What's going on? I can't dodge this shadow?"

"Oh my god, don't hurt his face! My idol can't be disfigured!"

Seeing this, Wen Yan could only awkwardly dodge left and right.

Seeing that Wen Yan was not gaining the upper hand, Yu Nian'er immediately flashed to his side and said, "Senior brother, let me help you."

“Yun Fuzhao”.

A white shadow leaped onto her shoulder, and the fox licked his paw. "I'm your spirit beast too, have you forgotten?"
