Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

She tilted her head and asked softly, "Who are you? Do I know you?"

"Lu Chan, she is the Sword Saint... Sword Saint Su Fu."

Su Fu, the chief swordsman of the Ten Thousand Swords Academy.

She was the runner-up in last year's Northern San Antonio League!

He also holds the record for the fastest game finish in this Northern Sacred State League. In every game, Sword Saint Su Fu finishes the game at an absurdly fast speed, sometimes in a few seconds and sometimes in more than ten seconds.

Xu Rong said with some emotion, "I had heard that many teams in the Northern Saint State League have verbal conflicts when leaving and entering the arena. I didn't expect that Sword Saint really thinks highly of us."

"This guy seems quite interested in you, Junior Lu Chan."

"boring……"

Lu Chan said indifferently.

As soon as she finished speaking, she ignored the Sword Saint's taunts, tossed her long white-purple hair, and turned to leave.

"See you later, Sword Saint, goodbye~~"

As Miss Nanhe, with her long, light blue hair, passed by Su Fu, she even waved gently at her, saying, "Good luck this round!"

"..."

"..."

Watching the departing figures of the Zijing group.

The girl with long gray hair frowned slightly, puzzled, and asked, "What's going on?"

Just then, another member of the Ten Thousand Swords Academy approached and whispered, "Captain, the lines you thought of for so long are so lame, you look like a clown..."

"What did you say?"

"I was wrong!!"

While Wan Jian Yuan was wasting time.

Suddenly, a mechanical broadcast came from the dark passageway:

[Please have the Wan Jian Academy contestants enter the arena as soon as possible.]

[Warning once]

"Ahem," a girl in a light blue sword-wielding uniform stepped forward and whispered, "Captain, let's hurry inside, the match is about to start."

The members of Zijingyuan quickly returned to the team's rest room.

Lu Chan was over a hundred years old in his previous life, so he wouldn't bother with the mockery of a mere immature little sister.

As soon as everyone pushed open the door, they saw Dean Zijing, dressed in elegant and luxurious attire, kneeling on the ground and weeping. Upon seeing Lu Chan, she immediately rushed over excitedly.

"That's wonderful!!"

"Our Zijing College team has advanced to the top 16!!"

"This year's goal will definitely be the championship!"

Seeing Dean Zijing so agitated, Lu Chan reluctantly dodged for a moment, leaving Dean Zijing with no choice but to hug Nanhe and cry.

Miss Nanhe patted her dog's head helplessly, saying as if comforting a child, "Alright, alright, Dean, don't cry."

Just a month ago, Zijingyuan was a barely surviving team.

Apart from the top-ranked Xu Rong, who has some fighting ability, the second-ranked Nan He seems to have no desire to work hard. She rarely goes to the team's training room and seems to be busy with something all day long.

It is said that the city lord of Beilan City has long since given up on Nanhe and is arranging for her to go on blind dates with weapon refiners from other cities every day.

But now, Zijingyuan has unexpectedly entered the top 16!

From this perspective, it seems that Zijingyuan's rise to the ranks of the elite is just around the corner.

Just as Dean Zijing was overjoyed, suddenly, a deafening explosion was heard from the holographic projection screen in the room.

Wanjian Academy defeats Fengling Academy

[Successfully advanced to the round of 16]

[Time taken: 7 seconds]

"..."

"Here we go again. With Sword Saint Su Fu, the 'All-Map Cannon,' Wan Jian Academy ends up with such a ridiculously short game almost every match."

Everyone turned to look at the screen.

The members of the Wanjianyuan team had only just entered the Sky Garden when they left the arena shortly after Zijingyuan.

The members of the Wind Chime Academy team were left staring blankly at the screen.

"For some unknown reason, the Sword Saint's strength has increased dramatically this year, leading many to speculate... that her actual combat power has surpassed that of the Ghost Saint."

Dean Zijing analyzed with some seriousness: "Of course, according to rumors, Sword Saint Su Fu was injured in the Spirit Forbidden Zone last year before the start of the Northern Sacred State League, which is why her performance was somewhat lackluster."

"Even so, the wounded Sword Saint still led the Myriad Swords Academy into the finals. He is a true genius."

At this point, Dean Zijing confidently added, "However, I believe this so-called Sword Saint is no match for you, Lu Chan. There's no need to worry."

"Alright, alright, let's go eat. I'll treat you to a big meal tonight!"

"Tell me, what do you want to eat?!"

"Anything goes!"

Miss Nanhe immediately took out her electronic device and started searching. She said happily, "Dean, I heard that the best restaurant in the Star Palace is on the floor above the Sky Garden, a restaurant called Star Melody Pavilion. Let's go there now!"

"I'm actually a little hungry."

Upon hearing this, Dean Zijing's expression changed slightly.

Star Pavilion... is that the luxurious restaurant where the average cost is 20,000 Star Coins per person?

“Ah, I know that restaurant too, Dean. I’ve always wanted to go there too,” substitute He Nana said at this moment.

She explained, "I've heard that if you don't visit the Star Melody Pavilion, this trip to the Northern Sacred State League would be a waste. Rumor has it that many weapon refiners from the Holy Land occasionally dine at the Star Melody Pavilion."

Dean Zijing's expression gradually stiffened.

Crazy...

Each person costs 20,000 star coins, and eleven people together would cost 220,000 star coins. That's enough to buy a decent mid-grade spirit skill!

In exchange for a meal, you can consume a mid-grade spiritual skill?

However, thinking about how Zijing Academy was about to soar to great heights, Dean Zijing reluctantly said, "Alright, alright... let's go to Xingqu Pavilion for dinner. I hope everyone can perform well in the next match!"

"Great"

After everyone tidied up, they immediately took the elevator to the 101st floor of the Star Palace.

Stepping into the luxuriously decorated Xingqu Pavilion, one finds a series of private rooms separated by amethyst screens, exuding an atmosphere of unparalleled opulence.

"Star Academy is really rich..."

"As expected of the wealthiest weapon-refining academy in the entire Northern Sacred State."

Hearing the murmurs of the crowd, Dean Zijing shook her head: "The Star Academy is an asset under the Ninth-Rank Holy Land, the Divine Continent Star Guardian Sect. In the end, it's actually that Holy Land that's wealthy."

Just then, a waiter quietly approached and asked, "Excuse me, which team are you from?"

Suddenly, when she saw the stunningly beautiful girl with long, white-purple hair standing in the crowd, she exclaimed excitedly, "Ah!! It's Princess Zijing!!"

"It's the Zijing Courtyard! Princess Zijing actually came to our house for dinner!"

Upon hearing the waiter's voice, several other waiters ran out, just to catch a glimpse of Lu Chan himself.

Seeing Lu Chan's somewhat bewildered expression, Dean Zijing sighed softly, "Lu Chan, it seems you don't realize how famous you are now. This is the benefit of the Northern Sacred State League."

That's right...

Lu Chan hadn't expected that even a mid-level weapon refiner could become a star in such a small place as Beishengzhou.

Of course, the turnover rate for players who emerge from the league is also very fast.

Like the star contestants from three years ago, people may have almost forgotten their names.

Soon, the people from Zijingyuan were invited into a private room by the waiters of Xingquge.

While waiting for their meal, everyone looked at the holographic projection screen.

The competition has reached the tenth round, and this round is the match between Duan Tian Yuan and Liu Mi Yuan.

"The choice of map rests with the Broken Sky Institute."

"Oh...? Duan Tianyuan chose the smallest map, the arena? What are they trying to do!?"

"The Duan Tian Yuan team, which is known for its rigorous tactics and teamwork, has actually chosen a map where they have to fight to the death!"

"Has Captain Zhao Xinglu gone mad?!"

I heard a slightly shocked voice.

Lu Chan narrowed his pale purple eyes slightly and looked intently at the screen.

In the picture...

The members of Liu Miyuan's team were also slightly taken aback.

As soon as the countdown ended and the light screen disappeared, the five members of Duan Tian Yuan rushed into Liu Mi Yuan's camp.

Under the breathless gaze of countless spectators...

Led by Zhao Xinglu, the three, along with Xiao Hanye and Xiao He, actually rushed directly towards Hua Shengyan's willow.

Zhao Xinglu and Xiao Hanye were shocked to discover that during their sprint, they had inserted their spiritual weapons into their own spiritual embryos.

【Princess Leiyue - Lightning Returns to Sheath】

【White Jade Frostwater - Full Moon Returns to Sheath】

"Zhao Xinglu and Xiao Hanye have immediately entered a 'sheathed' state. Are they planning to capture the leader first and directly kill the Flower Saint?!"

"Youhe Luo Xiaoman also belatedly entered the 'Sheathed' state, choosing to stand in front of the Flower Saint as cover."

The commentators couldn't even keep up with the pace of the commentary...

A bolt of cyan lightning struck directly into Liu Miyuan's camp, and several of Liu Miyuan's men were immediately blown away by the gust of wind.

Xiao Hanye had already entered the spirit weapon transformation state. Maintaining her terrifying posture draped in a pure white wedding dress, she spun and leaped over Luo Xiaoman, descending upon Hua Sheng's head like divine punishment, and slashed down with her sword.

"Chong"

She unleashed countless sword strikes in an instant, engaging in a fierce battle with the Flower Saint as if no one else was there.

The next second, the entire team from Duantian Academy pressed forward.

With a steel moon trailing behind her hair and her body covered in cracks of moonlight, Zhao Xinglu spun her guan dao and repelled Luo Xiaoman.

"Leave far away!"

Zhao Xinglu snorted coldly and charged directly at Hua Shengyan's willow.

In this match, she also revealed her second magical artifact.

It was a silver ribbon cloak that flowed around her entire body, and as the ribbons swirled, they neutralized all impacts from the surrounding area.

[Superior Spiritual Artifact - Steel Moon Cloak]

Zhao Xinglu and Xiao He bypassed Luo Xiaoman from the left and right, launching a stunning attack on Hua Sheng.

Xiao He was bathed in blue lightning, wielding the Thunder Moon with both hands like a wild beast, and frantically slashing at the Flower Saint.

In order to cause some trouble for Hua Sheng, he completely ignored Luo Xiaoman's attack; while Luo Xiaoman was also restrained by Wang Yumo's Heavenly Dance Wheel.

Luo Xiaoman dodged a few times before whipping Xiao He away.
