However, Miao Yi acted as if nothing had happened. He only cared about his food. Since the Ice Dew was a spiritual wine that was beneficial to one's cultivation and didn't cost money, why not drink more? Even if he did, he wouldn't want to stand out. He didn't want to be in the limelight.
When he sensed them looking at him, he didn't even bat an eyelid and continued to eat. It was obvious that he didn't want to stand out.
Seeing that it was almost the turn of the table in front of them, the Lady Boss gritted her teeth in anger when she saw Miao Yi pretending to be dead. The situation was clear. It didn't matter if someone with a higher cultivation went down. Another person going down meant another chance to try their luck. 'You're not interested in the Ice Dew, so what if you go down and try your luck? What if you don't want to give it to me?'
Tang Jun's two attendants, the carpenter, and the stonemason had already gone up. Logically speaking, it should be Miao Yi's turn now. If Miao Yi didn't go up, it would be Tang Jun's turn again.
"Niu Er, so what if the tavern doesn't give you something to eat?" The Lady Boss suddenly said. She was obviously calling him a pig.
The others at his table smiled. Miao Yi could only swallow the food in his mouth and take a sip of wine. He put down his chopsticks and turned to look at the ice sculpture, pretending not to know what the Lady Boss meant.
The carpenter naturally understood the Lady Boss's meaning. He patted Miao Yi's shoulder and smiled. "Niu Er, we've all tried. It's our table's turn again. You should go down and try too."
Miao Yi calmly said, "Even you guys can't do anything. I won't go down and embarrass myself."
The carpenter chuckled. "This has nothing to do with one's cultivation. It's all about luck."
Yue Yao kindly said, "If you're not interested in the Ice Dew, you can give it to the Lady Boss if you happen to see it. It's very suitable for women."
Miao Yi quietly looked at her. He could tell that his Little Sister was very interested in it. However, he still shook his head and said, "I'm not going!"
The Lady Boss turned her head away, too lazy to look at him.
Tang Jun smiled. He could understand Miao Yi's reluctance to show off.
Miao Yi thought the matter was over. Who would have thought that when it was his turn, the stonemason at the side would suddenly make a move at lightning speed, directly restraining him and pushing him away. He immediately threw Miao Yi away.
Miao Yi was speechless as he landed on the stage. He looked around at the gazes directed at him, and saw that everyone at his table was looking at him with smiles on their faces.
"Niu Er, don't be unreasonable. What's wrong with trying my luck? As long as you don't take off your mask. Who can identify who you are? So what if I recognize you? As long as the Lady Boss stubbornly refused to believe him, no one would be able to kick her out of the inn. Besides, if you still want to stay in the inn, you can offend anyone but the Lady Boss! "The carpenter chuckled.
The ten Ice Spirits had already gracefully invited him in. Miao Yi had no choice but to follow them and stand in the middle of the empty space.
The ice spirits stood in a circle and danced around him. They opened their mouths and spat out a cold mist. Everything in front of him turned white in an instant, and the ten ice spirits' bell-like giggles and chirps filled his ears. "Look for me! Come and find me … "
Miao Yi coldly scanned his surroundings, but it was a vast expanse of whiteness. He couldn't even see his own fingers. He quickly invoked his transcendence energy to investigate, wanting to know why the others couldn't find him.
In the end, he discovered that the sound was constantly refracted and reverberated within the mist. He couldn't figure out where the sound was coming from. The strange surging mist seemed real and fake at the same time, as though thousands of ice spirits were alternating and dancing, concealing the true traces of the Ice Spirits. And in this world of ice, the Ice Spirits were the true spirits.
Miao Yi quickly came to a conclusion. The problem lay in this mist. Invoking transcendence energy to investigate was completely useless. The more he tried, the more his judgment would be messed up!
Faced with such a complicated situation, Miao Yi, who had undergone abnormal training, almost reflexively closed his eyes. His body and mind were quickly immersed in the endless reverberating laughter and chirps, using his instincts to sense the myriad changes in the mist.
His thoughts traced back to the source of the sound refracted by each grain of fog at lightning speed. Even the ever-changing fog could not cover his extremely tranquil mind. Compared to the loud noise and disturbance under the waterfall, compared to the disturbance in the hurricane and the huge waves, compared to the tremendous pressure in the depths of the sea when he was facing the attacks of thousands of Tyrant Fish, Zhang Lisheng's mind was at peace. These disturbances that allowed him to quietly experience them were really nothing.
He had an advantage that even Qian'Er and Xue'Er, who had undergone similar training, didn't have. This was because he was personally trained by Lao Bai, and because he cultivated the Fiery Star Technique! It wasn't an ordinary fire-type cultivation technique. Ordinary fire-type cultivation techniques wouldn't be able to burn away the seven emotions and six desires produced by the human heart, but the Fiery Star Technique could.
The 'star' in the Fiery Star Technique could also be equated to the 'heart'. The heart represented the innate purity and the acquired complexity!
At this moment, it could be said that Miao Yi had raised his animal instinct to predict danger to the limit. It could also be said that his mind was currently engaged in a lightning-fast calculation that even he himself wasn't aware of. The refracted laughter and chirps receded from his mind like a receding tide, quickly returning to the starting point.
Every movement of the ten ice spirits that were hidden in the fog was reflected in his mind. Even the hundred ice sculptures formed a three-dimensional silhouette under the refraction of sound and the impact of the treacherous fog, appearing in his mind. He could clearly remember every movement of the hundred ice sculptures.
If Qian'Er or Xue'Er were in this situation, they might be able to make a clear judgment as well. However, they definitely wouldn't be able to form such a clear image in his mind like he did.
Even though the chirps and chirps continued to reverberate in an attempt to confuse Miao Yi, with his eyes closed, Miao Yi felt as though he was seeing with his own eyes how they hid themselves within the ice sculptures.
With a whooshing sound, over a hundred wisps of mist were suddenly sucked into the hundred ice sculptures.
Paying close attention to the Lady Boss and the others below, Miao Yi didn't seem to be as confused as the others who were experiencing the mist for the first time. All they saw was Miao Yi quietly closing his eyes, not moving an inch. It was as though he was also an ice sculpture.
"Begin!" The referee began counting, "One, two, three …"
With his eyes closed, Miao Yi's eyebrows twitched. It was as though the countdown had reminded him of what he was here for. Suddenly, he moved, charging towards an ice sculpture and throwing a punch.
'Bang!' A clean punch shattered the ice sculpture.
Amidst the shattered ice, an Ice Spirit emerged and bowed. The Lady Boss's eyes immediately lit up, her brows brimming with joy. She was thinking that this brat would gift this to her later …
For some reason, the spectators felt that Miao Yi wasn't trying to rely on luck like the others. Because Miao Yi's movements were too clean and precise. He wasn't hesitant like the others, but rushed straight towards his target and struck without hesitation.
"You will receive one Ice Face spirit fruit! At the same time, you will also receive … "Before the referee could finish his sentence, Miao Yi had already begun his assault.
After pausing for a moment, Miao Yi was already on the move. His figure flashed between the ice sculptures one after another, throwing punches and kicks at a rapid pace.
Bang bang bang …
One by one, the ice sculptures shattered, and the Ice Spirits emerged, retreating and bowing.
When the tenth ice sculpture shattered, the final Ice Spirit emerged from the shattered ice. The entire crowd was dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded. 'Isn't this a little too clean and precise?'
Only then did Miao Yi slowly retract his fist and slowly open his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes and saw the Ice Spirit before him, he finally realized what he had done. He was filled with regret. 'I guess I've made a fool of myself this time!'
He'd seen so many experts fail, so he thought he wouldn't be able to do it either. He thought he'd just give it a try, but he was too engrossed in it and forgot to go easy …
The South Pole Elder narrowed his eyes from his seat. The Four Constellations Masters of the Subjugation Crusade all turned to look at him. The South Pole Elder had already stood up in shock, staring at Miao Yi in disbelief.
"Father! Big Sister's subordinate is too amazing! "Yun Feiyang exclaimed.
Yun Guang came back to his senses and put on a proud look as he chuckled, "Of course, the people of the Yun family are not to be trifled with. Your Big Sister was a person who made people tremble in fear at the mention of her name. Even I, your old man, had to lower my head and avoid her! If even a brat like you can trick two of them, Sister Qiu's subordinate will naturally be able to do it. "
Hei Yun asked suspiciously, "Yun Guang, is the masked man down there someone from the Great Devil Realm?"
Yun Guang wasn't too sure either. He replied vaguely, "Could he be someone from the Yin-Yang Realm?"
"Great!" The carpenter shouted, then abruptly stood up and clapped his hands, breaking the silence. The stonemason also stood up and followed suit.
The Lady Boss was overjoyed. She stood up as well, smiling as she clapped her hands. The smile on her face came from the bottom of her heart, not the kind one used to entertain guests. Her eyes glowed with excitement.
Even Yue Yao was stunned. Perhaps it was a little too much to say that beauties loved heroes in this situation, but Miao Yi's actions had indeed amazed everyone.
However, suspicion quickly flashed across her eyes. 'Could it be that he wasn't the person she suspected? If he really was that person, how could he be more powerful than all the experts here? '
Frowning, Bai Ziliang had the same doubts as well, especially after hearing Yun Guang's words. 'Someone from the Great Devil Realm?'
Tang Jun narrowed his eyes. 'It looks like the person Master planted by Yun Zhiqiu's side isn't as simple as he looks. I wonder who he is, but isn't this guy's actions a little too eye-catching? Or perhaps he has another motive … '
"Good … Good …" The entire hall was filled with cheers and applause from the bottom of their hearts, ushering in the climax of the banquet.
Even the South Pole Patriarch stood up and applauded with a smile on his face. He nodded slightly at the referee who was looking at him.
The referee immediately announced, "You will receive ten Ice Beauty Spirit Fruits! You will also be given the opportunity to continue searching for ice spirits! "
The ten ice spirits once again led Miao Yi to the center of the hall. Miao Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The mist rose again. When it finally dissipated, Miao Yi slowly opened his eyes. He turned to look at Yue Yao, who was sitting at his own table, and sighed inwardly. 'Since Little Sister likes it, then it's not like I'll be in the limelight even if I don't want to. It's not like it's going to be difficult for me. It's better to end it early. I don't want to waste my chance to cultivate here …'
