The Wine Demon Sword continued, "That Black Tortoise Temple is so powerful. To put it bluntly, it's just an outpost of the Black Tortoise Continent's Deep Earth Sect in the White Tiger Continent.
The Profound World is like this. The closer one is to the Heaven's Chosen Gate, the stronger the opponent will be.
If you want to send troops to attack the White Tiger Continent, you must first become the top martial artist on this continent.
Ling Xiao isn't qualified yet. He's just a well-known figure among geniuses. But martial artists aren't just young geniuses. His true opponents are those backbone forces, those true experts. "
"You're right. The Celestial Empire has just unified the Heavenly Dragon Continent and the Divine Phoenix Continent, so it still needs some time to recuperate. It's not appropriate to make a big move. It won't be too late to take action after Ling Xiao, Leng Mei, Dan Feng, and Long Chen have grown up."
Hong Qi said with a smile.
"The Profound World is very big. The White Tiger Continent is only the third continent. His road is still long."
The Wine Demon Sword looked at Ling Xiao who was sitting on the seat and thought of himself when he was young and frivolous.
Back then, he went to the Black Tortoise Continent to find Ji Lingyue. In the end, he left excitedly and returned in disappointment.
He who couldn't even step out of the Black Tortoise Continent wanted to save Ji Lingyue. It was simply a joke.
"Who took Ji Lingyue away?"
Hong Qi suddenly asked.
Hearing this question, the Wine Demon Sword's expression suddenly changed. He lowered his voice and whispered in Hong Qi's ear.
"What! It's actually them! But why did they take Ji Lingyue away? "
Hong Qi was also incomparably shocked.
"I don't know the specific reason, but with my current strength, not to mention saving Ji Lingyue, it's impossible to even reach there."
The Wine Demon Sword sighed helplessly. Then, he looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Only he can save his sister. I believe that he can do what I can't do. So even if I have to risk my life, I have to ensure his safety!"
After the first battle ended, Cold Plum stepped onto the stage.
Ling Xiao's advice to her was to choose a weaker opponent as much as possible. That way, it would be easier to win.
This was because Ling Xiao believed that after this round of battles, the Black Tortoise Temple would make new arrangements. Although he did not know the specifics, it would definitely be very beneficial to the advancement of martial artists.
Who should he choose?
Cold Plum pointed at Scarlet Moon.
This was Ling Xiao's idea.
Although Hongyue was one of them, she was undoubtedly the weakest of the seventeen.
If Cold Plum didn't choose, someone else would. Hongyue would definitely be eliminated or even killed.
If Cold Plum had to choose, the two of them would fight fair and square. No matter who won or lost, no one would die in the end.
Of course, Ling Xiao had told Hong Yue about this choice in advance.
Therefore, Hong Yue was not surprised.
She jumped onto the stage and stood opposite Cold Plum with a grin. Then, she said, "Sister Cold Plum, to make the following battles smoother, why don't we decide the winner with one move?"
Of course, she would not surrender.
Cold Plum's current cultivation was very unstable because she was not familiar with the power of the black feathers that she inherited. One moment, she displayed the terrifying strength of the 18th level of the Yin-Yang Realm, and the next moment, she displayed the strength of the 14th level of the Yin-Yang Realm.
Her cultivation was very stable at the 16th level of the Yin-Yang Realm.
Therefore, she might not lose the battle.
Moreover, Ling Xiao did not ask her to surrender, so she felt that there was no need for that.
If her Big Brother Ling Xiao asked her to surrender to Cold Plum, she would definitely agree.
"Sister Hong Yue, be careful!"
Cold Plum showed a rare gentleness.
However, she did not intend to go easy on Hong Yue. She suddenly took a step forward and turned into several afterimages.
Black feathers floated down from the sky.
Every feather was filled with a sharp battle intent.
It made people shudder.
"Sister, you have to be careful too."
Hong Yue took a step back. Then, scarlet flames enveloped her body, and a fire dragon enveloped her entire body.
In that instant, the entire space was filled with blazing energy. It was as if the stage was about to melt.
"Descent of the Fire Dragon — Battle!"
Huff huff ~
Terrifying flames were spat out from the fire dragon's mouth and quickly spread across the entire stage. The spectators even subconsciously dodged as if they were afraid of being burned by the flames.
Cold Plum's figure flew around the stage. No one could tell which one was real. However, a large number of afterimages were burned by the flames and instantly turned into nothingness. They completely disappeared.
"This little girl's combat strength is not weak. Looks like everyone has underestimated her. As long as she accumulates enough experience, she and Blue Snow will definitely become the strongest in the new generation of the White Tiger Mainland."
Ling Xiao could not help but feel a little emotional.
Both Blue Snow and Hong Yue were only 12 years old, five years younger than him. They were definitely outstanding talents of the new generation.
Even if they were eliminated from this year's White Tiger Meet, the two of them would still be on the same level as Feng Feiye and Tianhai Tyranny next year.
Hong Yue's weakness lay in her experience.
Cold Plum's overall strength might not be much stronger than hers, but she was always able to avoid the flames with every dash.
No matter how fierce the flames were, they were unable to burn her real body.
Instead, more and more black feathers appeared in the air.
Streaks of light formed a terrifying vortex of sword qi, pushing the crimson flames to the side and then rushing towards the red moon.
"Cold Plum's skills are still a level higher."
Ling Xiao smiled. Her rich combat experience allowed Cold Plum to gain the upper hand in the nick of time.
The terrifying sword qi vortex slammed into Hong Yue's body.
Hong Yue's body was knocked backwards. Her small face was red, but her expression was stubborn.
In the end, the sword qi vortex dissipated completely.
Hong Yue's small hands trembled uncontrollably, already covered in scars.
"A draw?"
Sun Leng Chan glanced at Ling Xiao, as if waiting for Ling Xiao to speak.
But then Hong Yue suddenly broke into a smile. "Cold Plum's big sister is really strong. I lost."
Others might not know, but Hong Yue was very clear. If this had been a fight to the death, Cold Plum's black feathers would have pierced her heart by now.
"You're not bad yourself."
Leng Mei spat out a mouthful of turbid air.
To be honest, this battle was not easy. If the opponent was not a friend but someone else, then the battle would have taken a long time. Even if he won, he would have consumed a lot of energy. That was naturally not something he wanted to see.
Even Hong Yue, who was considered the weakest, was so strong.
This quickly raised the crowd's interest. The following battles would only get more and more exciting.
He couldn't miss any battle. Otherwise, he would really regret it.
Cold Plum and Hong Yue walked to Ling Xiao at the same time.
Ling Xiao handed Hong Yue a pill and said, "You've worked hard, little girl. But if you admit defeat like this, will the people of Zhengyi School let you go?"
"They won't let me fight to the death. I'm just a child."
Hong Yue said with a smile.
