“Major Achievement in spells… how is that possible?”
Si Taijian was the first to blurt it out.
Steward Zhou, who had been preparing to sleep soundly, was startled and widened his eyes, “Both ‘Wind Spirit Step’ and ‘Iron Shield Technique’ have reached Major Achievement?”
Even Zhao Dajiang, the Sect Leader of Scarlet Serpent Sect, exaggeratedly stood up from his wheelchair.
Major Achievement for a First Grade Spell?
Under normal circumstances, this is something that Qi Refinement practitioners of the Seventh Layer could achieve.
Even for a genius, it would require reaching the Fifth or Sixth Layer of Qi Refinement.
But now, a Third Layer Qi Refinement cultivator has trained two First Grade spells to Major Achievement – could this person be a freak of nature?
A shock ran through the hearts of people from various factions.
Looking at the honest and straightforward Shi Lei, four words suddenly popped into their minds: pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.
“Ouch!”
At that moment, Bu Feilan who had been seriously injured by the ‘Iron Shield Technique’ let out a wail of pain.
He felt as if he was falling apart, trembling as he extended a finger to point at Shi Lei on the stage, with a restrained face he said:
“I was careless just now, I didn’t dodge!”
He cursed Shi Lei internally for looking honest and straightforward, but actually being so treacherous and cunning, only displaying the beginner level of ‘Wind Spirit Step’ at the start to feign weakness.
Then, revealing his true strength, his speed soared, and he used the ‘Iron Shield Technique’ to charge over, scoring a sneak attack.
“Misty Sect, you lack martial virtue. It’s one thing to have strength, but to actually play tactics, is this really good?”
Bu Feilan became more and more angry as he spoke, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his head tilted, and he fainted.
“Simply disgraceful!”
Zhao Dajiang, the Sect Leader of Scarlet Serpent Sect, was furious, waved his large sleeve, and scolded his disciples, “Aren’t you going to quickly get him out of here!”
“Yes, yes.”
Two disciples hurriedly dragged Bu Feilan away, pressed his acupoint with their bare hands, kneel on the ground, and begged him not to die.
Steward Zhou, who was hosting, coughed once, stretched out his arms, and announced loudly:
“Congratulations to Misty Sect for winning the first match.”
Although he was shocked as well, facts were facts, and everyone had seen it with their own eyes, there could be no fakery.
“Big brother is mighty!”
Huo Yunjie and Li Jiaojiao cheered.
Seeing this, Ye Feng finally let out a breath of relief.
As an honest and straightforward person like Shi Lei would certainly not think of the strategy to “feign weakness to the enemy and strike a sudden blow to win”, this was all the tactic arranged by Ye Feng in advance.
Initially, even Ye Feng was quite nervous.
But seeing the plan succeed so well, he gained even more confidence for the upcoming two matches.
Upon hearing he had won, Shi Lei felt as if he was in a dream.
“It’s really useful to have tactics arranged by the Sect Master Uncle.”
Shi Lei excitedly jumped off the stage and gave a fist salute to Ye Feng, “Sect Master Uncle, I won.”
“Not bad, but you’ve only won the first match, it’s far from a time to be happy,” Ye Feng said, patting Shi Lei’s shoulder.
Other Sect Leaders eyed Shi Lei as if looking at a piece of jadeite, shouting to him:
“This little friend, we observe that you have extraordinary bones and are a cultivation prodigy. If you no longer wish to stay in Misty Sect, our Sect’s doors are always open to you.”
“Join our Sect and we’ll give you a wife!”
“We’ll give you two!”
“Not just a wife, we’re willing to give a child too.”
“We’re different; we’ll give you Sunshine Pig Farm!”
The Sect Leaders of various factions argued with red faces.
The other disciples heard this, and their faces became odd, secretly thinking that when they joined a Sect, not having a wife was one thing, but why did they also have to pay an entrance fee?
“Thank you, Sect Leaders, for your kindness, but in life I am a person of Misty Sect, and in death, I will be a ghost of Misty Sect; I will not join another,” Shi Lei gave a fist salute to everyone.
“That’s a pity,” the various Sect Leaders said regretfully.
In their view, Shi Lei staying in Misty Sect was truly a case of a pearl covered in dust, such a waste!
“Why are you so pleased? It’s a best of five battles, and you think you have won by just winning one?”
The Scarlet Serpent Sect’s genius, Si Taijian, could not hold back any longer and said discontentedly.
Steward Zhou also realized this and announced, “Next, we will proceed with the second match. A Misty Sect disciple, please ascend to the stage and select your opponent.”
“Jiaojiao, go up. Remember what I told you,”
Ye Feng whispered.
“Yes, Sect Master Uncle.”
Li Jiaojiao nodded.
Although she was but a young girl from a mountain village and only in her teens, she had already grown tall and graceful, with an air of poise and confidence. Key was her innocent face which, upon ascending to the stage, immediately attracted the attention of male disciples from various sects.
“Sister Jiaojiao, we support you!”
“Forget about the Misty Sect, I’ll steal spirit stones to take care of you.”
The disciples from various sects shouted.
Li Jiaojiao’s pretty face blushed, making her even more beautiful, and she shyly pointed at a mottled face disciple beside Si Taijian, saying,
“This battle’s opponent, I choose him.”
Upon hearing this, the mottled face disciple immediately released the aura of the fourth layer of Qi Refinement, revealing a ferocious smile, “What’s the use of being pretty? For a cultivator, what matters is strength.”
“Be careful, don’t take this lightly.”
At that moment, Si Taijian lowered his voice to remind.
The mottled face disciple nodded, jumped onto the stage, and faced Li Jiaojiao from about ten meters away.
“Begin.”
Steward Zhou stood with his hands behind his back as he announced.
This time, he was no longer sleepy, but spirited, eager to see whether the Misty Sect could pull off another miracle.
“Die!”
Flames ignited around the mottled face disciple.
“It’s still the First-Grade Spell ‘Flame Serpent Technique,’ and he’s been at the beginner stage for quite a while,”
said a disciple from a certain sect.
Before the words were even finished,
five Flame Serpents, forming a pincer attack, lunged at Li Jiaojiao from different directions, showing no mercy.
If Li Jiaojiao were hit, she would be either severely injured or killed.
Whoosh!
A breeze formed under Li Jiaojiao’s feet and her entire body was enveloped in a gentle light. With a light tap on the stage, she executed a beautiful backflip, evading the encircling Flame Serpents.
Then, to the astonishment of the audience, she landed quickly, taking steps with residual images trailing behind her.
In just an instant, Li Jiaojiao had circled behind the mottled face disciple.
“Trying to ambush? No way!”
The mottled face disciple had been on guard and quickly turned around.
His hands lit up with a dark gold glow, displaying the beginner’s stage of the First-Grade Spell ‘Vajra Palm,’ and swiftly aimed a strike at Li Jiaojiao.
But there was a clang,
The ‘Vajra Palm,’ capable of splitting gold and iron, was blocked by a dark shield of light.
That was none other than the ‘Iron Shield Technique’ displayed by Li Jiaojiao.
“You know this spell, too?”
The mottled face disciple was stunned.
He had reached the second layer, yet his opponent was not only on the same layer but appeared more formidable than he had anticipated.
“I know more than just this.”
Li Jiaojiao suddenly extended her blazing hot right hand and struck the mottled face disciple’s chest, making his robe burst apart and sending his scorched body tumbling outside the stage.
“She even knows ‘Fire Cloud Palm’!”
The crowd below was dumbfounded.
Steward Zhou’s eyes widened more than a pair of bronze bells, exclaiming in shock, “‘Wind Spirit Steps’ at major achievement, ‘Iron Shield Technique’ at major achievement, ‘Fire Cloud Palm’ just at beginner level… Could this young girl also be a genius?”
“This annoys me as well!”
Zhao Dajiang, the Sect Leader of the Scarlet Serpent Sect, was so frustrated that the corners of his mouth kept twitching, and he stood up from his wheelchair once more.
“When did Misty Sect’s disciples become such monsters?”
Si Taijian also found it incredibly unbelievable.
He looked towards Huo Yunjie, who stood calmly beside Ye Feng, and suddenly felt a heavy pressure.
