Xue Luoyu frowned. "Do you want to challenge Chu Li?"
Sun Mingyue said, "Forget it, let him be."
"Sigh …" Xue Luoyu shook her head, feeling that it was a pity. This was a good opportunity to make a name for herself. As long as she could defeat the young talents and get into the top three, she would be able to establish her name among the younger generation.
These young men were all elites and would definitely reach the top level in the future. Having a name in this level would mean that she would be famous throughout the world, which would be of great benefit to her in the future.
Chu Li's eyes were still closed, and his mind was in a realm of whiteness. However, his mind was as cold as a quiet spring, and his mind was extremely clear.
At this time, the Scroll of Indifference unknowingly appeared in his mind, and the characters seemed to come alive. Although he did not recognize these characters, he could vaguely understand what they meant.
As time passed, the battle outside was already in full swing. The first one to run into a ring was Zheng Yueming.
He stood on the easternmost ring and shouted, "Zheng Yueming from Lunar Palace, is there anyone who wants to fight?"
Soon, a handsome young man with an arrogant expression floated out of the crowd and landed in front of Zheng Yueming. He gave a fist salute and said, "Lu Chengmeng from Sanxian Sect, please enlighten me!"
"Come on, just do it." Zheng Yueming waved his hand disdainfully.
He sensed that Lu Chengmeng's cultivation level was not high, and he was definitely no match for him.
Lu Chengmeng said coldly, "The martial arts of Lunar Palace is exquisite. I would like to learn a thing or two!"
He was extremely dissatisfied with the Nine Divisions and felt that they had taken too many resources. Otherwise, the other sects would not have been suppressed so badly. Sanxian Sect was also one of the victims. As a disciple of Sanxian Sect, he must defeat Zheng Yueming and give the Nine Divisions a slap in the face.
As soon as he finished speaking, he unsheathed his sword.
With a "buzz", a ball of silver light pierced Zheng Yueming's chest. His movement was so fast that the people below the ring could not help but shiver. It was such a fast sword, and it was fierce and powerful.
"Ding …" Zheng Yueming flicked his finger, and the tip of the sword was immediately deflected by his fingernail.
Lu Chengmeng's long sword flew out of his hand, and he staggered two steps back, his face flushed.
Zheng Yueming shook his head. "You're still far from it. Go down yourself."
Lv Chengmeng was infuriated. He didn't expect that someone as frivolous as Zheng Yueming would have such a cultivation. It was truly frightening. The force from his fingertips was like a vast ocean. It was boundless, and the longsword couldn't be held at all.
He slowly said, "Good skills, as expected of Lunar Palace!"
Zheng Yueming frowned and said, "You still haven't given up?"
"Again!" Lv Chengmeng shouted.
With a wave of his hand, the long sword that had fallen below the stage suddenly flew into his hand. This move made the crowd cheer. To be able to do this was not easy. The Dragon Subduing Energy was so pure, it was obvious that his inner energy was also extremely pure.
The common problem for people of their age was that their internal energy was deep but not pure enough. His one move was extremely outstanding.
Zheng Yueming shook his head and flicked his finger.
"Ding …" Lv Chengmeng held his sword horizontally in front of his chest as he staggered a few steps back, nearly falling off the stage. He quickly twisted his body in an attempt to deflect the force, but he was caught off guard by another finger attack, colliding with his sword once again.
"Ding …!" Lv Chengmeng flew out of the stage and staggered to the ground.
Zheng Yueming cupped his fists. "Thank you. Anyone else?"
The crowd hesitated.
Lv Chengmeng's internal energy was pure and he was a Supreme Master, but he could not even last two moves against Zheng Yueming. This Zheng Yueming was indeed a little scary. They knew that they were no match for him, so it was better to go to another stage.
However, there were always those who were not convinced and they were quickly defeated by Zheng Yueming. After winning three rounds in a row, Zheng Yueming glided back to Chu Li's side and smiled at Sun Mingyue and Xue Luoyu. "Piece of cake!"
Sun Mingyue glanced at him but did not say much. Xue Luoyu chuckled and said, "You can say that after you get into the top three."
"Sigh …" Zheng Yueming's face fell.
He knew that he could not get into the top three. He was no match for Chu Li, Sun Mingyue, and Deng Tianlun, so how could he get into the top three? Unless they were unlucky enough to meet an exceptionally powerful master.
Unfortunately, the rest were mediocre and there were very few who could threaten the disciples of the nine divisions.
Sun Mingyue did not care about these and only stared at Chu Li.
If Chu Li could comprehend the Book of Indifference, it would be a great gain. The three secret manuals could not compare to the Book of Indifference.
Time continued to pass, but Chu Li showed no signs of waking up.
Slowly, one after another, people who had won three rounds in a row appeared. Xue Luoyu, Deng Tianlun, and Zheng Yueming had all returned with consecutive victories. Only Sun Mingyue did not show any signs of going up.
Xue Luoyu asked, "Miss Sun, are you not going?"
Sun Mingyue shook her head. "Forget it."
She was worried about Chu Li being alone. Chu Li was extremely weak now and his mind was completely focused on the Book of Indifference. He could not be disturbed.
Xue Luoyu was surprised. "This is a rare opportunity. Everyone wants to see you. After all, you're the first person in Light Surpassing Boundary in a thousand years. You also represent Light Surpassing Boundary. How can you give up?"
Sun Mingyue said, "I don't have to fight for Light Surpassing Boundary's reputation."
"I'll protect you," Xue Luoyu said.
Sun Mingyue shook her head.
Xue Luoyu said, "If you give up like this, I'm afraid the sect will have a bad opinion of you when you return."
"If you have an opinion, then so be it." Sun Mingyue smiled. "I know what is important and what is not."
"Sigh …" Xue Luoyu glanced at Chu Li.
Chu Li did not know what virtue he had accumulated in his past life to make Sun Mingyue so loyal to him. She was willing to give up glory and reputation to protect him.
Although Sun Mingyue did not go on stage, the four elders who stood in the void to watch the battle did not say a word. It was as if they did not see anything.
When all the challenges were over, the elder with white hair and a youthful face raised his voice. "Is there anyone else who wants to challenge?"
Everyone was silent.
Almost all eyes were on Chu Li and Sun Mingyue. Sun Mingyue sat firmly on the ice block and did not move. Chu Li closed his eyes as if he was meditating and did not move.
They were all curious. With Chu Li's martial arts, there was no doubt that he would win first place. Why did he not move and why did Sun Mingyue not participate?
The elder with white hair and a youthful face said slowly, "If that's the case, let's enter the second round. We'll fight in pairs and the winner will advance to the next round. We'll fight in six rings at the same time. Today, we'll be able to decide the top three."
Xue Luoyu said, "Elder Fu, it's a pity to only fight in one day. Why don't we do it tomorrow?"
"Hehe …" Fu Qiuhua shook his head and smiled. "Ninth Princess, we're all busy people. We're here to participate in the martial arts symposium. It's better to proceed quickly, isn't it?"
Everyone responded in unison.
Fu Qiuhua said, "I believe Master Chu is comprehending the Heavenly Tome of Indifference?"
"Yes." Xue Luoyu said, "He's in a good state and can't be distracted."
"It's best not to let Master Chu be too engrossed in it or he'll easily go astray. I think Master Chu isn't in a good state now. It's better to wake him up." Fu Qiuhua said sternly.
Xue Luoyu said, "Let's wait a little longer."
Fu Qiuhua shook his head. "It might be too late if we wait a little longer. It's better to wake him up to play it safe."
He was about to approach as soon as he finished speaking.
Sun Mingyue said, "Elder Fu, please wait."
Fu Qiuhua stopped.
