Tuoba Xiu's name did not sound like a man.
At this moment, Tuoba Xiu was indeed not a man. She was a young lady dressed in a loose black robe. Her face was beautiful and cold, and her hair was tied up behind her back. She was dressed like a man.
But even so, the current her could still be called a beauty.
If she were to change into a woman's outfit, she would definitely be stunning!
"Make your move."
Tuoba Xiu's beautiful face was cold. Facing Number Seven, who had challenged her, her gentle voice sounded indifferent. It gave off a feeling that she was unapproachable.
"Alright."
Number Seven was the prodigy from the Famous Mansion who had challenged Tuoba Xiu. After responding, he charged out with a high-grade divine artifact in his hand. He circulated the divine energy in his body and charged at Tuoba Xiu with all his might.
Tuoba Xiu was compared to Duan Lingtian by Elder Lin Donglai of the Flame Howl Sect, who was hosting the Seven Mansion Banquet this time.
Therefore, he did not dare to be careless.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Tuoba Xiu did not make any moves in the face of the sky-pride from the Famous Mansion. However, her black robe fluttered slightly.
In the next instant.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
…
Almost at the same time when the sky-pride from the Famous Mansion approached, Tuoba Xiu's surroundings had turned into a world of ice and snow. Even the air around her had turned into ice and was rapidly spreading in all directions.
Thousand Miles Ice Seal!
In the blink of an eye, the Famous Mansion's genius was sealed in ice by a glacier that appeared out of thin air. He could be seen charging forward with all his might. However, he was only able to cross a short distance before he was completely stopped.
Not only that, but his body was also frozen at this moment.
The spectators could see the eyes of the sky-pride from the Famous Mansion who was frozen in ice. At the same time, they could see the fear in the depths of his eyes through her gaze.
"He sent me a voice transmission saying that he's admitted defeat."
Just when everyone was shocked by Tuoba Xiu's technique, Lin Donglai's voice rang out. Then, he waved his hand, and the world of ice and snow in the void dissipated, returning it to its original state.
As for Tuoba Xiu, she also took the opportunity to withdraw her Divine Power. Then, without saying anything, she turned around and left.
As for the Famous Prefecture's prodigy, after he was rescued, his face was as pale as a sheet of paper and his body was trembling …
"Do you want to continue?"
Lin Donglai looked at the Famous Manor's sky-pride and asked. Without waiting for a reply, he continued, "However, I can see that your injuries are not light. I advise you not to continue with the challenge, lest it affects the ranking battles later."
"I give up."
"Thank you for saving my life, Elder Lin."
The Famous Mansion's sky-prides took a deep breath and thanked Lin Donglai.
Even now, he still had some lingering fear when he thought of the scene just now.
If Tuoba Xiu hadn't held back, he might have died the moment he was sealed in ice!
"The embryonic form of the Dao of Control?"
Duan Lingtian stood in the void and looked at the figure in the distance. His eyes flashed.
Perhaps the others present did not have any special feelings towards the embryonic form of the Way of Control. After all, the Way of Control and the Way of Weapons were very different.
Once the Way of Control merged with the profundities of the laws, it could even become invisible.
On the other hand, the Way of Weapons could not be concealed, not even in its embryonic form.
That was right.
Duan Lingtian could see it.
Tuoba Xiu, a disciple of the Yuwen Clan from the Underworld Mansion, had comprehended the embryonic form of the Way of Control!
Unless one had come into contact with the Way of Control or studied it, even a God Emperor might not be able to see through the clues just now …
However, as someone who had comprehended the Way of Control, Duan Lingtian was very familiar with it.
"This is the sky-pride that the Underworld Mansion has nurtured with all its resources?"
Duan Lingtian's expression turned solemn at this moment.
Although Tuoba Xiu did not use her divine weapon earlier, when she activated the embryonic form of the Way of Control, she also displayed her attainments in the Law of Ice.
At the very least, Duan Lingtian felt that Tuoba Xiu was definitely not weaker than Moqi Hong, whom he had defeated in the Seven Kills Valley back then.
In fact, Moqi Hong might even be slightly weaker than her back then.
While Duan Lingtian was feeling emotional, the people from the Chunyang School and the various Mansions around him were also discussing Tuoba Xiu.
"Tuoba Xiu is too terrifying."
"The Law of Ice that she has comprehended has obviously reached an extremely powerful level … That sky-pride from the famous Mansions did not even have a chance to get close to her before he was blocked by her ice."
"As expected of the prodigy that the Underworld Mansion has nurtured with all its resources!"
"Although the Underworld Mansion has contributed greatly to her success today, her innate talent and comprehension ability are more important … If it were us, even with the Underworld Mansion's unreserved help, we would not be able to compare to her!"
"That's true."
…
Although everyone knew that Tuoba Xiu was a prodigy that the Underworld Mansion had nurtured with all its resources and that she was treated with envy, no one could deny her innate talent and comprehension ability.
If she was mediocre, the Underworld Mansion would not have been able to nurture her.
After all, mud would not be able to support a wall.
"If Tuoba Xiu is like this, Luo Yuan from the Tianchen Mansion and the Autumn Leaf School should be similar as well … No wonder Elder Lin compared them to Duan Lingtian!"
"That sky-pride from the famous Mansions probably did not even dream that Tuoba Xiu would be so powerful. Indeed, curiosity killed the cat. "
"That's right! Obviously, he challenged Tuoba Xiu out of curiosity. "
"By doing so, he has forfeited three chances to challenge Tuoba Xiu. I'm afraid no one will challenge Tuoba Xiu or Luo Yuan after this."
"I'm sure no one will challenge Tuoba Xiu anymore … As for Luo Yuan, with that sky-pride from the famous Mansions as an example, no one will challenge him as well."
…
In the arena, the young prodigy who had obtained the number eight token entered the arena.
This time, the person who entered the arena was a disciple of the Chunyang School. He was none other than Lan Xilin, the great-grandson of Lan Zhengming, the Patriarch of the Righteous Mansions.
Lan Xilin was one of the more outstanding ones among the younger generation of the Chunyang School.
Of course, compared to the likes of Ye Yingcai and Yun Yewei, he was still slightly inferior. He was second only to Ye Yingcai and the others.
"I challenge …"
Lan Xilin scanned the surroundings and finally locked his gaze on one person. It was a sky-pride from the Consonance Mansion.
Before this, his gaze had swept past the seeded contestant from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice. He had paused for a moment … However, in the end, he had given up on challenging that person.
He was not a match for that person.
Although he wanted to show off in front of his fellow disciples and gain some face for himself, the rationality that came from knowing his own limits still prevailed over his impulsiveness.
However, even though Lan Xilin had chosen the Consonance Mansion's sky-pride, he was still defeated.
In less than 30 moves, he was defeated by his opponent.
"How powerful."
After his defeat, Lan Xilin was not discouraged. He knew that it was impossible for him to enter the top 30. Now that he had entered the arena, it was just a formality.
After all, even within the Chunyang School, there were several people who were stronger than him but did not become seeded contestants, not to mention other forces.
"It was all luck that I was able to enter the Aspirations Group … I just hope that I won't be at the bottom this time and get kicked out of the top 100."
The members of the Aspirations Group entered the ranking battle.
There were a total of 102 people in the Aspirations Group.
It was destined that two people would be excluded from the top 100 and would not be able to receive any rewards from the Seven Prefectures' Feast.
Of course, many people would not be interested in the rewards for the 100th place … However, that was not only a matter of rewards, but also a matter of face!
If you entered the top 100, you could generously tell others in the future that you participated in the Seven Prefectures' Feast and entered the top 100.
…
The challenges continued.
However, even when it was the 30th place's turn, no one had succeeded in their challenge.
The 30 seeded contestants were like 30 insurmountable mountains that made people flinch.
"Now, the person who has obtained the number 31 token, enter the arena."
As soon as Lin Donglai spoke, Duan Lingtian saw Ye Yingcai, who was not far from him, move. As soon as he moved, he rode the wind and entered the arena in the blink of an eye.
"It's Ye Yingcai!"
Ye Yingcai was the prodigy of the Chunyang School's younger generation. He was famous and many people recognized him.
In fact, before Duan Lingtian entered Chunyang School, Ye Yingcai and Yun Yewei were the top prodigies of the Chunyang School's younger generation.
When people talked about the prodigies of the Chunyang School's younger generation, they would be the first to come to mind.
Unlike now.
When people talked about them, they would only think of Duan Lingtian.
This was because compared to Duan Lingtian, their achievements paled in comparison.
"Is he going to challenge the prodigy of the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness?"
Duan Lingtian noticed that Ye Yingcai's eyes were fixed on one person after he entered the arena.
It was none other than the prodigy of the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness who had been selected as a seeded player. This time, only one person from the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness had been selected as a seeded player.
A moment later, Duan Lingtian knew that he had guessed correctly.
"I challenge Hu Caiyi of the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness."
When Lin Donglai asked Ye Yingcai who he was going to challenge, Ye Yingcai's gaze remained unchanged and he spoke calmly. He directly challenged the prodigy of the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness, Hu Caiyi.
Hu Caiyi was a young man wearing a loose blue robe. He was tall and burly, almost two meters tall. His burly figure stepped into the air like a small moving tower.
His appearance was average, but he left a deep impression on others. His face was chiseled, and his features were chiseled.
"Ye Yingcai, you almost killed my junior brother from the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness earlier."
Hu Caiyi glanced at Ye Yingcai indifferently after he entered the arena. "I was wondering if you would challenge me earlier … I didn't expect you to actually challenge me.
You've given me a chance to avenge my junior brother from the same sect! "
Earlier, Ye Yingcai had almost killed that disciple from the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness. Although that person was not close to Hu Caiyi, they were from the same faction in the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness.
Usually, that person would be very respectful when he saw Lin Donglai.
Moreover, he had done many things for Lin Donglai.
Many people in the Alliance of Benevolence and Righteousness knew about this.
Therefore, Lin Donglai did not deny his relationship with that person. Instead, he declared that he would avenge that person!
