Chapter 330: We Meet Again
“Is this the best Nan Xia Country has to offer? I heard that your country’s Ling Chuxi emerged champion during the last martial arts competition and is number one amongst the younger generation of Nan Xia Country. Do you dare to fight me?” Xiao Tianfan called out, still not looking the first prince in the eye.
Ling Chuxi finally understood. When he had said ‘next time’ back then, he had actually meant this. She was his true target from the beginning. If she thought about it though, it did make sense. Since he wanted to establish his might in front of all the envoys, he had to find the strongest person to go against. She had already defeated Baili Han and had been long acknowledged as the number one amongst Nan Xia Country’s younger generation. Who else would he look for?
Ling Chuxi, however, couldn’t have asked for more. ‘If you want to exchange pointers, you should have just said so earlier. You’ve troubled me a lot these past few days.’ Ling Chuxi calmed herself down and swiftly walked over.
All the officials of Nan Xia Country, including the emperor, looked at Ling Chuxi in worry and anticipation. This was not just an ordinary martial arts competition – it involved the reputation of two countries. If Ling Chuxi lost, Nan Xia Country would definitely have its reputation ruined and end up as a joke among the various countries. Even if they knew Ling Chuxi had extraordinary cultivation, everyone still felt anxious. Ling Chuxi was now their only hope to win this match!
“We meet again,” Xiao Tianfan said casually as he gazed at Ling Chuxi.
“You were unwilling to exchange blows last time, turns out you were waiting for today. I’m afraid you’re going to be disappointed at the end of this though,” Ling Chuxi sneered, completely confident.
The first prince’s expression changed when he heard those words. Ling Chuxi knew Xiao Tianfan, so she should have also known his cultivation. Instead of warning him, she had actually stayed silent and caused him to embarrass himself!
The first prince was angry and filled with hatred for Chuxi, but he had no idea how frustrated Ling Chuxi had been earlier. If not for him jumping forward so eagerly to seek abuse, Ling Chuxi would have happily learned the Turning Cloud Gesture by now!
Ling Chuxi, of course, did not realize that the first prince now hated her. She focused and gathered her Qi. With a soft cry, she lunged at Xiao Tianfan. The two of them were both at the cultivation level of the Great Fulfilment realm. If he did not feel threatened, he definitely would not use the Turning Cloud Gesture.
A surge of Battle Qi erupted from her, and Xiao Tianfan sharpened his focus. Ling Chuxi was not the least bit weaker than him in terms of Battle Qi, and could even be considered above him.
Not daring to be careless, Xiao Tianfan immediately gathered his Battle Qi and went forward to meet her attack.
Within the magnificent hall, two waves of Battle Qi at the Great Fulfilment realm collided and released pressure in all directions. Although everyone knew that the experts of this realm had great control over their Battle Qi and could use it as they pleased, they were not sure if an accident would happen during the fight regardless. Everyone retreated to the sides of the main hall and more than ten of the palace’s experts stood guard by the emperor.
Ling Chuxi used all her strength to attack while paying attention to the changes in Xiao Tianfan’s fingers. However, Xiao Tianfan seemed to understand the weakness of the Turning Cloud Gesture and did not use it so fast.
“It’s still not good enough.” Ling Chuxi gritted her teeth and concentrated her Battle Qi in the tip of her finger. Last time, it was because she had condensed her Battle Qi to a single point on the Luo Chen Sword that she had defeated Baili Han. However, a finger was not Luo Chen Sword and the Battle Qi that it could withstand was extremely limited.
A sharp pain pierced her fingertip and she felt like her meridians were about to be torn apart by the thick Battle Qi. Ling Chuxi gritted her teeth and tried her best to push her Battle Qi to its limit – just enough that it would not damage her meridians, and would also channel her strongest attack.
