Chapter 45 Double Wine
Mushengyuan quickly won the fifth game.
Halfway through the competition, one person from each of the four great empires and one person from a smaller country advanced.
The teacher glanced at the booklet and began calling out the players for the sixth round.
In the sixth round, the Northern Underworld Empire's Baijiu (white liquor) faced off against the Western Flame Empire's Liquor.
Ye Qingshuang said, "It's all wine."
"I wonder if the liquor over there is stronger?"
“Then it has to be strong liquor,” Teacher Mu joked. “Let’s call it strong liquor.”
Ye Qingshuang's smile widened.
During the discussion, baijiu (Chinese white liquor) and spirits were brought onto the competition stage to test cultivation levels.
Baijiu (Chinese liquor) is classified as Level 3 Spirit General, while strong liquor is classified as Level 2 Spirit General.
"Teacher, it seems that Bei Ming's wine is stronger," Ye Qingshuang said, "and his cultivation level is higher."
Teacher Mu smiled and said, "A difference of one level in cultivation level doesn't necessarily mean anything."
"Qing Shuang, you've been going to the gambling den a lot these past few days. Why don't you make a bet with me?"
Ye Qingshuang immediately waved her hand: "No, I don't have the money."
She's invested all her money in Lingyi, which put her in the top three.
Teacher Mu laughed loudly upon hearing this.
While the group was talking, the two fighters had already clashed on the arena, with frost and flames filling the entire arena.
The previous matches were not very interesting, perhaps because the difference in cultivation level was too great, or perhaps because everyone was trying to conserve their strength. But the sixth match was different.
The moment the strong liquor entered the arena, it set the entire competition stage ablaze. For the liquor to even land, it had to be extinguished with ice water.
The interplay of cold air and flames created a powerful visual impact. Those with higher cultivation levels might not have noticed anything, but viewers with lower cultivation levels were incredibly excited, shouting the two characters' names and cheering them on.
In the Western Flame Empire, Yan Wuxin looked at the fire magic used by Liejiu and suddenly stood up.
Yan Wuxuan, who was sitting next to Yan Wuxin, said, "Wuxin, sit down."
Yan Wuxin looked at Yan Wuxuan in shock: "Third Brother, you know?"
The Explosive Fire Technique can increase cultivation level for a certain period of time, but it causes great damage to the body and is a forbidden technique. Their teacher never allowed them to practice this kind of forbidden technique, but Liejiu used it anyway.
"When we were training together before, he refused because he wanted to refine his body. The teacher originally disagreed, but he agreed after you spoke up. Was that when you learned the Explosive Fire Technique?"
Yan Wuxin looked at Yan Wuxuan: "Third Brother, you knew all about the damage the Explosive Fire Technique would do to your body, so why did you agree?"
"This is harming him!"
Faced with his sister's accusation, Yan Wuxuan remained expressionless, simply saying, "This was requested by Liejiu."
"He begged..."
"No intention," Yan Wuheng said. "I'll tell you after the match."
Yan Wuxin suppressed his anger and sat down to continue watching the game.
On the competition stage, flames covered the entire stage, obscuring everyone's view.
"Frost is almost invisible now." In the stands, the crowd watched the competition and discussed, "Did the liquor team lose?"
"That can't be right, his cultivation level is higher than that of strong liquor."
"But we really can't see any frost anymore."
"Let's wait and see. It's hard to say until the teacher announces it."
On the competition stage, Baijiu was covered with a layer of cold air, which kept the flames away. Baijiu stepped forward and walked in front of Lijiu.
Liejiu knelt on both knees, supporting himself with his hands on the ground, enduring immense pain.
The Explosive Fire Technique consumes a great deal of spiritual energy, and overuse will cause cracks to appear on the body, with flames burning inside. When the flames dissipate, terrifying scars will remain.
Baijiu squatted down, raised his hand and swept it, a cool but not biting chill fell, covering the cracks on the liquor and extinguishing the flames burning within them.
The strong liquor didn't expect the baijiu to help him, and suddenly looked up at the baijiu: "Why are you helping me?"
Baijiu's eyes are beautiful, but upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that they lack focus.
"You..." Liquor paused, "You...can't see?"
Those who cultivate are very sensitive to these things. If he glanced at the liquor before going on stage, he would have noticed that his opponent couldn't see it at all. But at that time, he was only focused on defeating his opponent and didn't pay attention at all, so he didn't notice that the opponent who helped him when he was in pain had poor eyesight.
"I can see it." Baijiu smiled. "It's just that what I see is different from what you see."
"The fiery ropes binding you look beautiful, but they will cause you pain," Baijiu said. "I sensed immense sorrow and anger in your power; you are in great pain."
"Can you tell me why?"
The strong liquor remained silent.
Baijiu continued, "Yan Wuxuan and Yan Wuxin aren't the kind of people who would do anything to win. With them in the team, you can't learn the Explosive Fire Technique without their permission, but you got their consent. What happened to you?"
"If you need to win, I can admit defeat. Just stop using this forbidden technique, or your body will completely break down, and you won't be able to do anything anymore." After saying this, Baijiu reached out his hand to Lijiu.
Looking at the outstretched hand, the strong liquor felt a pang of bitterness in its heart.
Strangers from different empires were willing to lend him a helping hand, but his fourth uncle had his parents and brother killed!
The clan elder dismissed him by saying that his fourth uncle was more capable than his father and could lead the Lie family further. His parents and younger brother died just like that, without even leaving behind any remains.
If it weren't for his father's subordinates risking their lives to protect him and help him escape, he wouldn't even have been able to return to the academy.
He wanted revenge, but his cultivation level was insufficient. The only way to improve his cultivation level in a short period of time was to enter the Dongyang Mirror to cultivate, even if it was only for ten days, it would be better than cultivating outside.
That's why he went to the Third Prince to ask for the Explosive Fire Technique.
He was well aware of the harm the forbidden techniques would cause to his body, but he had no other choice.
"If you're feeling down, just cry it out," Baijiu said softly. "It's just you and me in this place; no one else will know."
After Baijiu finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it, and four tall ice walls instantly appeared on the competition stage.
As the ice wall appeared, the flames gradually disappeared, but the competition continued, and no one could see what was happening on the competition stage.
An ice wall blocks the view, while a white wine bar creates a soundproof barrier to prevent sound from escaping.
In the small world isolated by the ice wall, the strong liquor could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
From receiving news of her parents' death, being tricked back to the Lie family by the elders, being surrounded and killed by those people, to finally being rescued by her father's subordinates and escaping back to the academy, her father's subordinates died one by one on the way to escape.
Finally, the man stopped him outside the capital and told him that the game of cat and mouse was over.
He had the ability to kill him long ago, but he didn't. Instead, he followed them at a leisurely pace, watching them escape and letting them watch as those around him died one by one while trying to protect him.
When he was left alone, the game came to an end.
If it weren't for the Third Prince passing by, he would have died at that man's hands.
He hated it, but as that person said, he was just a rat running around everywhere, unable to even protect himself, so how could he take revenge?
