The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

Upon hearing Lin Yitang's words, the disciples who were watching began to discuss again.

Compared to Lin Yitang, Nie Muqing spent more time in the outer sect and is more well-known.

Someone agreed, saying, "That's right. I also remember that Senior Sister Nie was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining a month ago. How could she have broken through to the tenth level of Qi Refining so quickly? Could it be that, as Junior Sister Lin said, she used some improper means?"

"I've heard that some pills can temporarily boost cultivation, but they're extremely harmful to the body. Senior Sister Nie wouldn't have actually used one, would she?"

"And those forbidden techniques and secret methods, although they can quickly increase strength, come at a huge cost. Senior Sister Nie shouldn't be so foolish as to use these secret methods; that's cheating!"

Hearing these words, Nie Muqing's face turned purple with anger, but she couldn't refute them because it seemed that she really had cultivated a spell that temporarily boosted her cultivation level!

However, she certainly wouldn't show it on her face. Instead, she sneered, "Whether I used it or not, the truth will prevail. Besides, I can defeat you even without these things!"

Seeing that a ring had become available, Nie Muqing quickly jumped onto it, pointed her spirit sword at Lin Yitang, and shouted, "Lin Yitang, are you coming up or not? Are you really afraid of me?"

Today she's going all out! That wretched Lin Yitang, even if it exposes her, she'll make sure she can never cultivate again!

Besides, she trusted Senior Sister Ye's magic, and there seemed to be no problem with it. Surely Senior Sister Ye wouldn't use those forbidden techniques or secret methods to deceive her.

Since that's the case, she'll have to give it her all in front of Senior Sister Ye and defeat Lin Yitang, who wronged her!

Seeing that Nie Muqing had fallen for his trick, Lin Yitang smiled and jumped onto the stage as well: "Alright."

No matter what methods Nie Muqing has, as long as he fights openly and honestly in front of those Nascent Soul True Monarchs, he will definitely be able to see through them!

Ever since she discovered that Ye Qiuli was different from the character in the book, she no longer believed that Ye Qiuli could do anything aboveboard.

The fact that Nie Muqing was able to advance three levels in a month is almost irrefutable evidence that she must have used some cheating method to rapidly increase her cultivation!

Beside the arena, Yunmeng Zhenjun's eyes lit up when he saw Lin Yitang jump onto the arena.

He whispered to the Purple Orchid True Monarch beside him, "That little disciple named Lin Yitang seems to be challenging the outer sect genius Nie Muqing. He probably has some tricks up his sleeve. Let us help Xuan Hui see how it goes."

True Monarch Zilan nodded and said, "Nie Muqing is a famous genius of the outer sect of Danfu Peak. Xuan Hui mentioned it before. It seems that his cultivation has reached the tenth level of Qi Refining. Although Lin Yitang performed well in the first level, she is only at the ninth level of Qi Refining. She has some courage to challenge Nie Muqing."

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Xuanhui smiled slightly: "No need to pretend to speak softly. You're all at the Nascent Soul stage, I can hear you. I think this Lin Yitang is not simple. Just keep an eye on her, maybe she can really give us a surprise."

On the arena, Lin Yitang and Nie Muqing stood facing each other. Their eyes met, and sparks seemed to fly in the air.

Nie Muqing sneered and said, "Lin Yitang, since you dare to challenge me, don't blame me for being impolite. Today, I'll show you what it means to overestimate yourself!"

Lin Yitang sneered, "Nie Muqing, stop talking nonsense and make your move!"

Before the words were even finished, the two moved and were already locked in combat.

Lin Yitang moved nimbly, constantly changing the hand seals in her hands.

She first activated the Fireball spell, and a blazing fireball appeared out of thin air in front of Nie Muqing, forcing him to take a step back. Immediately afterward, she cast the Earth Shield spell, and a sturdy earth shield appeared in front of her, blocking all of Nie Muqing's sword energy.

Between offense and defense, several golden swords floated beside her, ready to attack Nie Muqing at any moment.

This is a combat method that Lin Yitang came up with after learning from the fighting experience of others. The combination of fire and earth magic can achieve both offense and defense, and the fastest golden sword is used to assist.

Although it consumes more spiritual energy than casting a single spell, it has a low margin for error and is best used when you don't know the opponent's moves.

Seeing this, Nie Muqing sneered, and with a wave of his longsword, sword energy swept across the room, knocking all the golden swords away.

The two were only one level apart in cultivation, and since Nie Muqing was a pill cultivator, their strengths were almost equal.

However, the longsword in Nie Muqing's hand was a mid-grade spiritual sword, with a faint spiritual light flowing across its blade, clearly indicating that it had been carefully crafted by a master craftsman.

This longsword was not only incredibly powerful, but also highly compatible with Nie Muqing's cultivation level. Under her control, the longsword unleashed astonishing power, its sword energy crisscrossing and enveloping Lin Yitang.

Lin Yitang was not someone to be trifled with. She was very agile and always managed to dodge Nie Muqing's attacks at crucial moments.

At the same time, the combination of her fireball and earth shield worked extremely well, leaving Nie Muqing with no openings to attack.

The two fought fiercely, each move ruthless and merciless. The surrounding disciples watched in stunned silence, dazzled by the spectacle.

Lin Yitang had previously witnessed a swordsman from One Sword Peak whose spiritual sword possessed fire attributes, while Nie Muqing's spiritual sword seemed to possess water attributes, with attack power far exceeding that of ordinary low-grade spiritual swords. When infused with spiritual energy and wielded, it resembled a raging torrent.

The two were locked in combat, one with fire and the other with water, creating a spectacular scene.

Many disciples who were watching other matches were also attracted by the commotion, and more and more people stood around the arena.

This is understandable, since it's currently the bottom of the top 100 people fighting. It's the first time that a ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator has faced a tenth-level Qi Refining cultivator, so everyone naturally wants to come and watch.

At this moment, someone recognized two people and said, "Isn't that Lin Yitang, who was said to have had a conflict with the peak master of Danfu Peak? I didn't expect her to come to the outer disciple competition as well."

Someone nearby chimed in, "Yes, but wasn't she expelled from the inner sect? How can she still participate in the grand competition?"

"And isn't that Nie Muqing from the outer sect of Danfu Peak opposite her? She was also supposedly imprisoned in the back mountain, but I didn't expect her to be released."

Someone scoffed, "Tch, a magic cultivator fighting a pill cultivator, both are pretty weak, there's nothing to see."

"It's not necessary to say that. Senior Sister Nie's strength is quite well-known. Her Water Spirit Sword has caused many people of the same level to suffer. Lin Yitang has also defeated sword cultivators of the same level. Their duel might be very interesting."

"However, I still think Senior Sister Nie is better. When two top talents of the same level fight, the one with higher cultivation will definitely win. Even if Lin Yitang defeated Chen Qi before, she is definitely not good now that she is at the advanced stage of Qi Refining."

"I think so."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, while the battle on the arena continued.

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the two had already fought dozens of rounds, each having exhausted about 10-20% of their spiritual energy, resulting in a stalemate with no clear victor.
