After her senior sister was reborn, she actually became a powerful and arrogant protagonist?!

"What will happen then?"

"It was Zhao Yunlan who slandered me first, but he can't even produce any substantial evidence, yet he demands that I, the victim, prove myself?"

"Junior Sister Mu, don't you find this ridiculous?"

Chu Luobai looked at Mu Yurou with a puzzled expression.

"Moreover, the opportunities a cultivator obtains are crucial to their survival. Why should I disclose them because of a baseless question?"

"Does this mean that in the future, once disciples on Xiaoyao Peak obtain an opportunity and are questioned, they will all have to reveal it publicly like I have?"

Upon hearing this, the disciples who had been waiting to watch the show fell silent.

It's fine to look at other people's opportunities, but why shouldn't you look at your own?

Absolutely not.

"Senior Sister Chu is right. If she is forced to prove herself today, then all the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak will have to prove themselves like this in the future."

Qiu Lin glanced at the changes in the expressions of the people around him and instantly understood.

"I now also suspect that Senior Brother Zhao is practicing evil arts!"

"Qiu Lin, what do you mean? How could I possibly practice evil arts!"

Zhao Yunlan was caught off guard and immediately panicked.

"Oh? Then why does Senior Brother Zhao stay on Xiaoyao Peak every day instead of coming down the mountain? I bet it's because he's practicing evil arts and is afraid of being discovered by the elders if he goes down the mountain!"

"The evidence is right in front of you, Senior Brother Zhao, is there anything else you want to say?"

Qiu Lin mimicked Zhao Yunlan's previous tone and expression, speaking righteously.

"you!"

Zhao Yunlan was so angry that he couldn't speak for a moment. After a long while, he pointed at Qiu Lin and uttered a single word.

"Why won't Junior Sister Mu let Junior Brother Zhao prove himself now?"

"To avoid escalating the matter to the sect leader, which would damage Junior Brother Zhao's reputation."

Chu Luobai smiled and looked at Mu Yurou, speaking lazily.

Mu Yurou's face paled slightly. She just wanted to know what kind of opportunity Chu Luobai had obtained in the Poet Saint's Secret Realm.

Unexpectedly, Chu Luobai and Qiu Lin are so eloquent.

"Senior sister, Junior Sister Mu was just being kind."

Standing to the side, Jiang Yuzhe tugged at Chu Luobai's sleeve and whispered.

Chu Luobai felt a surge of annoyance, pulled out her sleeves, and walked straight to the center of the field.

"Although I don't know why Junior Brother Zhao is so determined to slander me today, this matter must be resolved in any way. We must not allow this kind of unhealthy trend to prevail on Xiaoyao Peak."

“I know that Junior Brother Zhao has always been dissatisfied with my position as the senior sister, and I believe that his questioning today stems from this.”

"If that's the case, then let's settle this in the ring."

An uneasy feeling inexplicably rose in Zhao Yunlan's heart.

"Today, I, Chu Luobai, issue a challenge to Zhao Yunlan to a duel at the main arena of Qingyun Peak. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, it will be clear whether I practice evil arts or not."

Chu Luobai drew his longsword, its blade aimed directly at Zhao Yunlan's throat.

"Junior Brother Zhao, what do you think?"

The arena on Qingyun Main Peak is not for life or death. Even if you are crippled or disabled, it is not my fault.

No one expected that Chu Luobai would issue a challenge directly.

In an instant, all eyes fell on Zhao Yunlan.

A flash of anger crossed Zhao Yunlan's eyes. He was furious that Chu Luobai, a scoundrel, dared to challenge him.

But what if you lose?

The thought flashed through Zhao Yunlan's mind, but he quickly dismissed it.

To ensure fairness, the person with the higher cultivation level on the arena will be suppressed by the formation to the same level as the other person.

Once on the arena, both Chu Luobai and himself were at the late stage of the Refining Spirit realm.

Since we are at the same level, I could never lose to someone who practices evil arts and takes shortcuts!

“That suits me perfectly. I will definitely expose your true colors in front of all the disciples of the sect.”

Zhao Yunlan spoke with arrogance, his words seemingly indicating that he was certain of victory.

"Then let's go."

Chu Luobai was too lazy to delay and took the lead in heading towards Qingyun Peak.

The disciples of Xiaoyao Peak were all watching the show with amusement, and at the same time, they didn't want their future opportunities to be questioned by others, so they all followed behind Chu Luobai.

The large group of people were very concerned about winning the attention of the disciples from other peaks.

Especially after discovering that their target was the main peak of Qingyun Mountain, they became even more curious.

Soon, the group following Chu Luobai grew larger.

By the time they reached the arena, the group following Chu Luobai had grown to several hundred people.

"How did you end up here at the arena?"

"I see that the people in front are all disciples of Xiaoyao Peak, so why are they causing trouble here at the arena?"

"Who's challenging whom to a duel?"

"I don't know, but I saw that the senior sister from Xiaoyao Peak was here. It must have caused quite a commotion for her to come here."

"Wait, the senior sister of Xiaoyao Peak is back?!"

The disciples surrounding the arena were all discussing and speculating about what had happened on Xiaoyao Peak to cause such a commotion.

"On the ring, only victory or defeat matters, not life or death."

"If you two have thought it through, then sign this life-or-death contract."

Since a disciple was killed in the arena last time, the elder in charge of guarding the arena has not received any applications for the arena to be challenged.

He couldn't help but glance at the two of them. It was quite strange that a Dao Integration Realm cultivator was willing to put up with a Spirit Refining Realm cultivator's antics.

The disciples nowadays are too focused on the concept of "principles".

If, back when he was cultivating, a disciple at the Refining Spirit Realm dared to provoke a disciple at the Harmony Realm, they would have been utterly crushed long ago.

Zhao Yunlan quickly signed his name, turned to look at Chu Luobai, and made a provocative remark.

"What, you're scared now that you're here?"

Chu Luobai glanced at the words on the life-and-death contract and signed his name.

She was relieved that they truly didn't care about life or death.

"The life-and-death pact has been made. The arena battle will begin in fifteen minutes."

As the elder spoke, he released a burst of spiritual energy from his fingertips, which struck the large bell beside the arena.

"Thump—thump—!"

The dull tolling of the bell echoed throughout the entire Qingyun Sword Sect.

The disciples who were cultivating all raised their heads and looked towards the main peak of Qingyun.

"This bell tolls at the main peak arena."

"With the sect competition just around the corner, someone actually went up to the arena?"

Many disciples immediately became interested.

With the sect competition approaching, disciples from all the peaks are secretly training with all their might, afraid of falling behind others and also afraid that their killer moves will be known to others in advance.

At that moment, the ring bell rang, and they were all very curious about who this hothead was who would choose to step into the ring at this time.

In an instant, countless disciples surged onto the main peak of Qingyun Mountain.

The huge arena was packed with people.

"With so many people, Chu Luobai, you'd better be careful not to use your evil skills."

Looking at the bustling crowd, Zhao Yunlan thought about how he was about to defeat Chu Luobai, who had long been overshadowing him, in front of so many people.

I couldn't suppress my excitement.

"Junior Brother Zhao, we haven't decided yet. What will happen if you lose?"

Chu Luobai ignored Zhao Yunlan's provocation.

"How could I possibly lose to a cunning and wicked person who practices evil arts!"

As if Zhao Yunlan had been greatly insulted by those words, he flung his sleeves and went straight onto the arena.
