Yao Jingxin didn't care how many opponents she had, because she knew that no matter who her opponents were or how many there were, with her strength, she was undoubtedly the number one in this competition.

"Hmph, boring. Only the weak band together."

With a cold snort, the longsword in her hand glowed with a green light as she charged toward Xue Shumo at the back.

Xue Shumo's greatest asset is courage, because of her family background, not many people dare to hurt her.

The two swords clashed. Before Yao Jingxin could even exert her strength, a chill ran through her abdomen. She rolled to the side to dodge Chen An's attack and came behind Xue Shumo.

Xue Shumo was disdainful of the other party's actions. In her eyes, it was a sneak attack. With a thought, she transformed her longsword into her most proficient whip.

During the previous battle, she was afraid of hurting innocent bystanders, but now that she's focused on dealing with Yao Jingxin, she's not afraid at all.

"Miss Yao, this is Xue Shumo, the eldest daughter of the Xue family."

Yao Jingnian glanced at Bai Yuanqi with disgust. If he hadn't known, he could have killed him and gotten away with it.

Now it's clear, let alone killing him, even injuring Xue Shumo wouldn't be justifiable.

Xue Shumo didn't care about anything else and just started whipping the whip. Yao Jingxin, having some reservations, obviously slowed down his movements.

Eliminating Xue Shumo without hurting her would be difficult for Yao Jingxin.

She has survived countless life-or-death battles to reach this point, but some people are born on the pyramids, which is what bothers her the most and what she can't do about it.

The battle must continue. Xue Shumo's battle does not allow others to join in, so Chen An and the other two observe from the side. If they can find Yao Jingxin's flaws, it won't be a bad thing.

Xue Shumo had been neglecting training, and after a dozen or so rounds, he began to feel exhausted. Yao Jingxin quickly seized the opportunity and kicked the panting Xue Shumo away.

Xue Shumo, who had just left the scene, was very dissatisfied. She put her hands on her hips and shouted, "You wait for me, I'll beat you to a pulp sooner or later."

Yao Jingxin snorted coldly: "The loser has no right to boast."

Enraged, Xue Shumo rolled up her sleeves and stepped into the arena, only to be lifted up by one hand.

“Little girl, she’s absolutely right.”

The woman in white placed Xue Shumo ten meters away from the arena, set up a barrier of about one square meter around her, and let her shout and rush forward.

After scanning the crowd, Yao Jingxin asked coldly, "Who's next?"

Chen An knew these words were meant for her, and she also knew that she didn't need to go out first; someone would definitely appear.

"My name is Hua Fei'ang."

A young man in white robes, also carrying a fan, stepped out from behind Bai Yuanqi.

Chen An could clearly sense Xue Shumo's aura from this person. On the day of the disciple-acceptance ceremony, this person was ahead of Xue Shumo, showing great talent and easily becoming Elder Haotian's disciple.

This is also why Xue Shumo rejected Elder Haotian so readily; she chose to cultivate at Zhaoning Sect because she wanted to grow stronger.

Despite her promise not to interfere, her family still sent this cultivator named Hua Feiang over.

Xue Shumo was even angrier when she saw Hua Feiang standing up for her. Now she wanted to beat not only Yao Jingxin, but also the white-robed elder and Hua Feiang, who refused to admit that he was there to secretly protect her.

After Chen An saw through the clues, he was very grateful to Brother Hua.

At the same time, knowing that Yao Jingnian was a proud person, he hated it most when others beat around the bush over trivial matters, so he shouted loudly: "Your cultivation is stronger than mine, so I will reluctantly call you Senior Sister Yao."

"As fellow disciples, I don't understand why you look down on all of us so much."

"Putting aside the question of whether it's unfair that you're standing here without having participated in the apprenticeship ceremony, what were you waiting for when everyone was fighting and you didn't make a move?"

"Such petty thoughts seem a bit out of place with your arrogant demeanor."

Yao Jingxin wasn't stupid; she understood that Chen An wanted to provoke public anger so he could extricate himself. But this was just an ordinary martial arts tournament, and Chen An, as a direct disciple, had no reason to do such a thing.

Losing to her was a blessing for a weakling like Chen An. Since Chen An wanted to, she didn't waste any more time and said calmly, "Come at me together."

Hua Feiang glanced at Xue Shumo in the distance. He was there to protect this young lady. Xue Shumo had been beaten up, and if he was alright, he would definitely be harassed by Xue Shumo's family.

It's really hard for one person to take a beating alone, so naturally everyone should take the opportunity to do it together.

“Indeed arrogant, Bai Yuanqi, come with me.”

Bai Yuanqi just wanted to stay put. He regretted cooperating with Hua Feiang, but there was no going back on his word. If he didn't go out now, and Hua Feiang, who was much stronger than him, held a grudge, his future would be difficult.

He steeled himself, tilted his head, and said, "Okay."

This immediate response sparked a wave of agreement from many people, who then rushed towards Yao Jingxin.

Chen An silently counted the number of people on the field from the back, and when there were only ten people left, he rushed out as well.

She wasn't afraid of Yao Jingxin and wanted to fight such a strong person, but due to the limitations of her mission, she had to endure until now.

Seeing Chen An rushing towards her, Yao Jingxin's attitude softened slightly.

If Chen An continues to hide until she eliminates everyone, she will mercilessly kill such a despicable person with a single sword strike.

Like everyone else, Chen An fought with all his might against Yao Jingxin, while the woman in white watched the excellent performance from the audience with great satisfaction.

If Ming San were willing, she would immediately take this unpredictable young girl under her wing.

After a full incense stick's time, only three people remained on the field: Chen An, Qing Xuan, and Yao Jingxin.

Yu Taoming didn't stay because he was weak; it was simply because Yao Jingxin chose to eliminate him first between him and Qing Xuan.

Chen An was able to stay not because she was strong, but because Yao Jingxin wanted to eliminate everyone and then have a real fight with her.

Chen An noticed Yao Jingxin's fierce gaze and, understanding her thoughts, sat down to the side.

Qingxuan was not surprised by Chen An's behavior, and admitting defeat directly was not her style. She quickly got entangled in a fight with Yao Jingxin.

After more than twenty rounds, Qingxuan was forced to the southeast corner of the training ground. Yao Jingxin used all her strength to strike Qingxuan, and Qingxuan was pushed away by Yao Jingxin.

After catching his breath, Yao Jingxin pointed his sword at Chen An.

Chen An stood up and stared intently at Yao Jingxin.

The two charged forward together, but Chen An was outpaced and was slashed in the right arm by Yao Jingxin.

Xue Shumo closed her eyes, not daring to look, but surprisingly, Chen An launched another attack.

He swung the sword horizontally toward Yao Jingxin's abdomen. She hadn't expected Chen An to have the strength to resist, but she managed to dodge it thanks to her own strength.

She remembered what that familiar force that rendered her attacks ineffective was.

"Golden Ape Inner Core!"

Knowing what Fu Gui fed him, Chen An became somewhat suspicious of Yao Jingxin's identity. Being able to so easily reveal what the spirit beast contained meant she was definitely not an ordinary young lady from a wealthy family.

After exchanging blows for more than ten rounds, Yao Jingxin realized that although his sword could not hurt Chen An, Chen An would indeed feel pain the moment he was hit.

She then changed her attack strategy.

Chen An noticed the change and, after being hit more than a dozen times, arrived at the edge of the arena.

Chen An suddenly turned around and used his body to absorb the full force of the opponent's sword.

While gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, Chen An suddenly slashed at Yao Jingxin's throat.

Yao Jingxin sensed something was wrong and tried to dodge to the side, but Chen An grabbed Yao Jingxin's sword with one hand and pulled hard, causing the sword to slip from his hand.

Before his opponent could react, Chen An rammed his head into Yao Jingxin's head. Yao Jingxin felt the pain and took a step back, leaving the ring.
