"Solo training?" Ziyu paused, surprised. "Is there enough time to do it now?"
The counter moves they learned before were just a last-minute effort, and they only used three days to learn them all. But they were in the middle of the tournament, and even if they had two days in between, it was only enough for them to recover their qi and stamina. Where would they find the time for solo training?
"There's enough time, of course there's enough time. This isn't something new, just a revision of the counter moves I taught you before," Lin Yi signaled for Ziyu to get on the boat and rowed it back to the Blue Cloud Sect's private island.
"Revision? Would that work? " Ziyu wasn't confident at all. She was a fearless person, but things like exams were the only thing she couldn't do. This competition was like a test to her, and her mind was blank the moment she entered the exam room. Even if she memorized the counter moves now, it wouldn't work when the time came.
"Don't worry, this isn't just revision. It's made for you." Lin Yi smiled mysteriously. He'd found the problem now, and it wasn't hard to come up with a solution.
"Really?" Ziyu only recovered now. She wasn't confident in herself, but in Lin Yi. If Lin Yi dared to say something like this, then he must have a way to help her get through this.
On the other side, everyone watched as the two rowed away. Lingshan couldn't help but worry. "Ziyu will be fine, right?"
"Don't worry, she'll be fine with boss personally. We just need to wait and see," Chentian said without hesitation.
The others looked at each other and smiled. Since Lin Yi said he'd bring everyone to the Primordial Trials, he wouldn't leave Ziyu behind. He'd never disappoint them, not in the past, not in the future.
In the fourth round of the competition, Xue Jianfeng, Lin Yi, and the others who had won all three rounds had qualified early. There were also some who had lost all three rounds and were eliminated early. Adding on the losers who had been heavily injured in the previous rounds, there were clearly fewer disciples participating in this round. For example, there were eight people in the last round, but only five were left in this round.
Without Xue Jianfeng and Lin Yi, this round wasn't as exciting as before. Leng Leng and Duanmu Yu were the only ones left. The former was a genius disciple who almost used Prison Formation to turn the tables on a golden core master, and the latter was a senior sister who was slowly showing off the strength of Ye Ling's sect. Both of them were beauties, too, so it was a rare sight to see.
Unfortunately, the two women did not encounter each other this time. However, what surprised everyone was that whether it was Coold or Duan Muyu, they should be considered as the top existence among the remaining Perfected Foundation Establishment experts. However, in the end, both of them were defeated at the same time!
The two Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment Realm disciples who had drawn them had already accepted their fate after learning the results of the draw. After all, the strength that the two women had displayed earlier was indeed not to be underestimated. Ordinary experts of the same level basically had no chance of winning against them. Therefore, the two of them had only held onto the belief that they would definitely lose and had given it their all.
They didn't think that they'd actually win.
Not only were the bystanders flabbergasted, but even they themselves found it hard to believe. They felt that this victory was like a free win. It took them a long time to react, and they were overjoyed.
"What's going on?" Lingshan and the others looked at each other. It was a pity that Lin Yi wasn't there, or he could explain it to them.
"Maybe she's exhausted too much Qi in the first three rounds, and her stamina is low." Xin Yijie looked at them and said thoughtfully. Other than the silent Bing Wuqing, he should be the one who could see the situation the most, other than Leng Leng and Duanmu Yu.
He was right. Leng Leng's strength was far from being consolidated because of the two consecutive breakthroughs in the first two rounds. Moreover, she used the extreme version of Prison Formation for the first time against Xue Jianfeng in the last round. This was a trump card that consumed a lot of Qi and stamina. She didn't feel anything because she was excited at that time, but now the drawbacks were fully manifested.
If she had been able to use Prison Drawing, there would have been almost no reason for her to lose the match just now. However, because she did not have enough True Qi, she had a very obvious flaw when she used this move, which was why her opponent had turned defeat into victory.
It was the same for Duanmu Yu. Whether it was Falling Leaves Signifying Autumn or A Mountain Leaf, they were both powerful moves that consumed a lot of Qi and stamina. Moreover, every time she used it in a short period of time, it would consume more than the last time. Moreover, her opponent wasn't weak, so it was understandable that she lost in the end.
The two girls behaved the same after losing the battle. They didn't say a word, and walked to an empty space at the side and began to meditate to recover their Qi. Both of them had two wins and two losses now. The next fifth round of the competition would directly affect their future, so they had to make the best use of their time to recuperate and prepare for the last battle.
Coincidentally, since Leng Leng and Duanmu Yu lost one after another, the fourth round of the competition seemed to be cursed. All kinds of dark horses kept appearing one after another. They obviously had the upper hand in strength, but they kept failing miserably. It was so strange.
Xin Yijie wasn't surprised about this. As a senior elder of the Green Cloud Sect in the north island, he had presided over at least eighty, if not a hundred, big or small competitions. He knew that in the middle and late stage of the competition, a lot of physical and Qi would be consumed, and the spirit would unconsciously relax due to exhaustion. Therefore, it was the easiest time for accidents to happen. It wasn't strange for dark horses to appear again and again.
A day later, it was finally the turn of the group in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm in the fourth round of the competition. As the number of participating disciples decreased significantly due to various reasons, the process of the competition sped up a lot. The first round still needed two whole days to finish, but in the fourth round, it only took less than a day to finish all the previous matches.
If Xin Yijie hadn't deliberately left some time for everyone to rest and recuperate between each group's matches, the time would be even shorter. After all, not only the number of matches was far less than before, but because everyone deliberately reduced the probing, the time of each match was also greatly shortened. This was a matter of course.
