Lan Yiqing was the undisputed number one genius among the younger generation of the Chu Yun Empire.
From 20 years ago, she had stood out and won the title of the number one genius eight years ago. She had always carried a shining halo of glory.
She was cold and arrogant. She did not even spare a glance for the younger martial artists of her generation.
Even Wuque Yin and Kuang Long, who were second only to her, were nothing in her eyes.
How could such a cold and arrogant girl admit defeat so easily?
However, Ji Tianxing stood in front of her unscathed and pointed his sword at her throat.
This scene was seen clearly by the Chu Yun Emperor, the Sage Master, and the hundreds of thousands of people in the imperial city.
What could she do if she did not admit defeat?
Intense humiliation and anger filled her heart, causing her slender body to tremble.
She stared coldly at Ji Tianxing. Her pupils were burning with an icy blue flame. Her gaze was as sharp as a sword, as if she wanted to pierce Ji Tianxing into a sieve.
Ji Tianxing could feel the unparalleled hatred in her extremely cold gaze.
After a long while, Lan Yiqing said in a hoarse voice, "Ji Tianxing, I will remember you! I have worked hard for 20 years for today, but you have ruined it!
Remember, one day, I will defeat you fair and square in front of everyone and kill you with my own hands! "
Lan Yiqing was not a talkative person. She had never spoken so much to anyone before.
However, 20 years ago, she had been preparing for this year's God Disciple Selection. She swore to enter the Clear Sky Pagoda as the number one genius of the Chu Yun Empire.
In the past 20 years, in order to increase her strength and surpass her peers, she had worked hard day and night. She had endured unimaginable pain.
She had been on the verge of success.
However, in the final ranking battle, Ji Tianxing had appeared out of nowhere and snatched the number one position from her, destroying all her efforts.
The difference between the number two and the number one was only one position. However, the significance was completely different.
The world would only look up to the most outstanding genius. Who would care about the number two?
After that, Lan Yiqing expressionlessly turned around and left. He turned into an icy blue light and flew away like lightning.
She left the square and disappeared into the horizon.
Clearly, she didn't even want to look at the rankings, much less listen to the discussions of the crowd.
Regardless of whether everyone was gloating or feeling sorry for her, this was an insult to her!
After Lan Yiqing left, the Sage Master announced the result in a dignified voice.
"Ji Tianxing wins this battle!
Ji Tianxing has risen to first place, and Lan Yiqing will rise to second place! "
The majestic and mighty voice spread throughout the entire square.
The hundreds of thousands of civilians all put on complicated expressions as they exclaimed and discussed loudly.
Many people were shocked and in disbelief. They still couldn't believe that a nameless kid like Ji Tianxing could defeat Lan Yiqing.
Some people were interested in Ji Tianxing's identity and were speculating about his origins and background.
There were also people who were filled with righteous indignation. They were furious at Lan Yiqing's humiliating defeat. They beat their chests and stomped their feet, full of hatred and hostility towards Ji Tianxing.
In the empty space below the stage, the dozen or so young geniuses all had complicated expressions.
Everybody was sizing up Ji Tianxing with a serious look. They were secretly discussing his strength, methods, and background. They were quite vigilant against him.
Xenophobia was a common trait of humans. It was the same in every world.
Ji Tianxing, this unfamiliar outsider, became the opponent and enemy that everyone was on guard against.
Only Yin Wu Que was sizing up Ji Tian Xing with his bright eyes and a playful smile on his face.
"I didn't expect this guy to be so sick. He could even defeat Lan Yiqing. I didn't lose unjustly!
Seeing Lan Yiqing so angry that he was about to vomit blood, it was too damn satisfying!
Hehehe … I like this kid more and more! "
Wu Que had been mocked and humiliated by Lan Yiqing many times. His heart was filled with hatred and he couldn't wait for Lan Yiqing to be humiliated.
Unfortunately, his strength and background were not as strong as Lan Yiqing's. He could only endure Lan Yiqing's humiliation.
Today, Ji Tianxing had helped him fulfill his wish and helped him vent his anger.
Of course, he was in a good mood and wanted to laugh out loud.
Previously, when he was defeated by Ji Tianxing, he was depressed and embarrassed.
But now, all his depression and unhappiness were swept away!
The challenge was over and Ji Tianxing had won first place. Naturally, he had to leave the stage.
"Swoosh!"
He stepped into the air and walked down from the stage. He landed on the empty space below the stage.
The dozen or so young geniuses around him all took a few steps back and maintained their distance from him.
Only Wu Que didn't care about the strange looks that others were giving him. He quickly went up to him.
He walked in front of Ji Tianxing, reached out his hand with a smile, and patted Ji Tianxing's shoulder. "Not bad, kid! You really hid your strength well! "
Ji Tianxing looked at him expressionlessly. He frowned and didn't say anything.
Anyone could tell that he didn't want to be too close to Wu Que.
However, Wu Que pretended not to see his expression. He acted as if he was very familiar with him and smiled. "Ji Tianxing, from today onwards, you are the number one genius of the Chu Yun Empire.
In a few days, the Clear Sky Pagoda's emissary will arrive and bring us to the Clear Sky Pagoda.
When that time comes, we will enter the Clear Sky Pagoda to cultivate and we will be brothers … "
Ji Tianxing continued to ignore him. He looked at the stage expressionlessly and treated him like air.
Wu Que didn't feel awkward at all. He stood shoulder to shoulder with him and looked at the stage with a smile. He was still talking non-stop.
"Lan Yiqing, that girl, has always been arrogant and cold. She doesn't care about anyone.
It's a pity that we can't afford to offend her. Even if she humiliates us, we can't fight back.
But you are strong enough. Not only did you ruin her reputation, you defeated her in front of everyone. You even made her accept her defeat wholeheartedly … How satisfying! "
Ji Tianxing couldn't help but frown. He turned to look at him and said coldly, "Don't speak without thinking. What do you mean I ruined her reputation?"
Wu Que was startled. He hurriedly explained, "Don't misunderstand. I'm not saying that you tainted her innocence. What I mean is …"
Seeing that he was making things worse, Ji Tianxing couldn't help but shout, "Shut up!"
Wu Que frowned and curled his lips to express his dissatisfaction. "Previously, her eyes were very bright when she looked at you. She seemed to be interested in you.
If you are brave enough, maybe you can try to taint her. Maybe she won't resist? "
Ji Tianxing's face turned even darker. He looked at him seriously and said coldly, "Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a noble young master named Murong. He was even more beautiful than a girl.
He took the initiative to get close to me and tried his best to rope me in. But then … "
Wu Que's interest was immediately piqued. He asked expectantly, "Then what happened?"
Ji Tianxing looked at him coldly and said slowly, "Then, I killed him. Not even his bones were left!"
