However, Lin Yitang on the ring couldn't think that far ahead.

She was covered in wounds and had to take many high-grade healing pills to finally stop the bleeding. The remaining wounds were still entangled with the tiger demon's spiritual energy and could only be healed by meditating in seclusion.

She stored the broken year in her dantian and said to the onlookers, "I'm not fighting anymore. I'm quite badly injured today, and I don't think you would dare to attack a weakened cultivator. If anyone still wants to challenge me, we can spar another time."

After saying this, she cupped her hands towards the direction of the Heavenly Evolution Sect, where Fairy Qinglian and the others were, and said, "Although this sparring was initiated by your sect's disciples, I am grateful for your sect's support in terms of venue and personnel. I have also benefited greatly from your sect's disciples. Considering that I still have sect missions to attend to, let's end the competition here."

Upon hearing this, Fairy Qinglian finally snapped out of her shock, her expression changing drastically.

After a long silence, he slowly spoke, "No need. This sparring was caused by an incompetent disciple of our sect, who hindered your sect's mission. We are already too busy apologizing. Since Junior Sister is seriously injured, we will not take advantage of her. Congratulations to Junior Sister Lin on entering the top ranks of the Earth Ranking. We hope we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future."

After saying that, she waved to the Tianyan Sect disciples who were watching and said, "Disperse, everyone. Stop thinking about sparring. We have already broken the rules by wasting an hour of our time fighting. Don't forget that we are still in the Four Arts Competition. We, the organizers, have a lot of things to deal with."

Hearing Gu Ningshuang's words, the disciples of Tianyan Sect reluctantly left the area around the arena, turning back every few steps. They would return to their sect or tidy up the Four Arts Competition venue.

They were still enjoying the exciting competition and hadn't had enough. However, they were satisfied to have witnessed the battles between the top experts and geniuses on the Golden Core Ranking, especially the Earth Ranking.

Many people also learned something from Lin Yitang and were inspired, and hurriedly flew back to their caves.

Seeing that the show was over, the disciples from other sects dispersed one after another. Some of them discussed in twos and threes how exciting and wonderful the matches were, and marveled at Lin Yitang's strength.

Others secretly used communication jade to send messages to their sects, informing them of the competition results.

This is firsthand information; to witness a top genius in the cultivation world make a move is, to some extent, a source of pride! From now on, Lin Yitang's name will surely spread throughout the entire cultivation world, making her a prominent figure no less than the top cultivators of various sects.

Among the evacuated crowd, only two cultivators showed no signs of excitement. The female cultivator even bit her handkerchief tightly, as if she wanted to tear it through.

These two were Ye Qiuli and her senior brother Han Yi. The pills that Long Wuming fed to the spirit beast were given to them by the two of them, in order to get rid of Lin Yitang through Long Wuming's hands.

For this reason, they spared no expense in making the deal; 100,000 spirit stones was a huge resource for an ordinary Golden Core cultivator.

Unfortunately, this easy plan did not go as expected.

They hadn't expected Lin Yitang to be so powerful, actually defeating the tiger demon ranked 44th on the Earth Ranking who was still in a berserk state. Moreover, this tiger demon even had a trace of the bloodline of an ancient divine beast, unlike ordinary demon beasts.

This is absolutely unacceptable!

Ye Qiuli gritted her teeth so hard they almost broke. She had intended to kill Lin Yitang, but this battle had become Lin Yitang's new battle for fame. The resources they had given away had instead become stepping stones for the enemy.

Seeing that his junior sister seemed unable to cope with reality, Han Yi quickly comforted her, "Junior sister, don't be sad, we still have a chance. This was just an accident. As long as Lin Yitang goes out, we won't have to worry about not being able to make a move."

After several failures, Ye Qiuli was no longer as emotionally distraught as before. She simply said with a stern face, "Indeed, I didn't expect this Lin to be so cunning and know how to hide her strength. Dealing with her is definitely not as simple as I thought. Fortunately, my senior brother is also one of the elite disciples and can keep track of Lin Yitang's movements. We can't be so careless in the future."

Han Yi hurriedly replied, "Of course. Actually, I have another method to obtain Lin Yitang's next elite disciple mission. As long as we know her next move, we can prepare in advance and will definitely be more successful than the last few times."

Hearing this, Ye Qiuli was somewhat surprised and became curious, saying, "Senior Brother actually has such methods? As expected of Senior Brother Han, can you tell me now?"

However, Han Yi kept everyone in suspense, revealing a smug expression, and said, "Not yet, Junior Sister, just wait and see, I'll definitely give you a surprise."

……

Meanwhile, the injured Lin Yitang also boarded the flying boat, finally able to find a safe place to heal her wounds.

This flying boat was the same one that had brought them here, and now it was to take them back from the South China Sea. Along the way, the magnificent scenery of the South China Sea unfolded before their eyes, with the boundless ocean and fierce sea winds attracting many disciples.

The flying boat was filled with the Tai Que Sect's team. They had entered before Lin Yitang after her competition ended, and most of them were currently admiring the sea view from the edge of the flying boat.

However, a small number of people looked worried and subconsciously glanced at the room where Lin Yitang was.

In this Four Arts Competition, the most outstanding disciple should have been the main character. However, with the competition over, the one who is now in the limelight is actually Lin Yitang, the elite disciple of Taique Sect who led the team.

As disciples of the Taique Sect, they were all very worried about the injured Lin Yitang. After all, in recent years, as Lin Yitang had become more active in the sect, she now had a very good reputation within the sect.

Many new disciples liked her very much and regarded her as a role model on the path to immortality, but naturally some people were worried about her injuries.

It's important to understand that Lin Yitang is a pillar of the younger generation of geniuses. Even the strongest young talents of the Tianyan Sect and Tianxuan Sect are far inferior to her and cannot even come close. If something were to happen to her, the title of the number one among the younger generation would fall to another sect, which is something many new disciples of the Taique Sect would find difficult to accept.

However, Lin Yitang seemed to have anticipated this situation. After her injuries had stabilized, she changed into clean clothes, opened the door, and came out.

Seeing the worried looks on her disciples' faces, she smiled slightly and said, "What's wrong? Are you worried something might happen to me? What could possibly happen to me? You all go back to enjoying the scenery."

Some disciples hesitated to speak.

A moment later, a young male disciple came out and said cautiously, "Uncle Lin, hello. I am an outer disciple of Thousand Paths Peak. I have admired you for a long time."

"Within the sect, I always hear others recounting my uncle's legendary experiences, such as shining in the outer sect competition to enter the inner sect, receiving the most invitations to become a personal disciple, becoming the strongest Qi Refining stage cultivator, killing Golden Core cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, entering the Earth Ranking at the Core Formation stage, crushing geniuses of the same level from major sects... and so on. Every time I hear these things, I am extremely excited and my heart trembles."

"I mustered up my courage this time for no other reason than to hear my uncle tell me about his legendary experiences."
