the next day.
Due to the great success of yesterday's opening ceremony, many people came here today.
Of course, there are quite a few monks who come here for Xu Qiuqian.
Yesterday Xu Qiuqian was the only one among the four arenas who successfully defended ten rounds. Her low victory over the high one made all the monks she saw look at her with new eyes and their blood boiled. In addition, someone later discovered that she was the legendary and A mortal store manager of a grocery store cooperating with several big families.
The news spread all night long, and everyone was curious about how she went from being a mortal to the fourth level of Qi Refining in just a few months.
How could he be so powerful and defeat the high with the low?
"There are more people under the No. 4 arena than under the other arenas!" Some people couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, I'm here for that one, what about you?"
Everyone smiled knowingly: "Who isn't?"
"I don't know if she will succeed in defending today."
"It shouldn't happen, right? After all, most people were still waiting and watching yesterday, and it should be almost done today."
Others think so too.
Although in their hearts, they hope Xu Qiuqian wins.
But no matter how powerful a person is, he can't successfully defend the ring for two days in a row, right?
Yesterday, it could be said that everyone underestimated her and didn't understand the rules very well, but it was different today.
They wanted to see the legendary mysterious store manager and how she lost.
Soon, Mr. Xiao came on stage.
"On the second day of restricted fighting, today's restricted magic weapon is: buckler! Restriction conditions: Within a quarter of an hour, more than one-third of the time must be held to fight with a buckler. The first one to knock the opponent off the ring or break the buckler wins!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar.
After all, the notice board yesterday only mentioned the restrictions, but did not explain another victory condition besides winning the ring.
If the one who broke the buckler really wins, then many of their plans can be scrapped.
I thought about it all night!
Some people complain about why such an important matter was not mentioned earlier.
But it can only be accepted.
Xu Qiuqian couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this.
This was one of the victory conditions that she, Shiqian and Xiaoyi envisioned last night, so naturally there are ways to deal with it.
"Please invite Xu Qiuqian, the defender, to come on stage!"
The whole place was in an uproar again, even louder than the discussion just now.
No one expected that Xu Qiuqian would dare to be the defender!
Is she so confident in herself?
After Xu Qiuqian came on stage, everyone stared at her with burning eyes.
"Whether she can win or not, I appreciate her confidence!"
"Hey, is this called confidence? This is obviously too confident. Do you really think that you are powerful if you are lucky enough to defend the challenge? How many of the challengers yesterday were really powerful? They just won by luck while everyone was watching. That’s all, what’s more, yesterday’s magic weapon was the Shadow Moon Blade, and that was the magic weapon sold in her grocery store!”
"I remember she said yesterday that it was her first time too, didn't she?"
"It's your first time? Who can believe it? Are you trying to trick a child?"
Indeed, how is it possible if you have never used the items in your own store?
Since you haven't used it yet, why use the Shadow Moon Blade as a restricted weapon?
For a moment, the small group of monks who felt that she could successfully defend the ring today began to waver.
Yesterday's coincidence and various circumstances were too favorable for her.
Maybe she really was just a fluke?
There are also monks who firmly believe that Xu Qiuqian can successfully defend the ring, but of course these are only a very small minority.
Even people from several major families felt that Xu Qiuqian might not be able to successfully defend the ring today.
"Ziyi, what do you think?"
The Xie siblings were sitting on the second floor of their store, looking at Xu Qiuqian on the ring outside the building. Listening to everyone's discussion, Xie Manqing asked Xie Ziyi.
"She will surprise us." Xie Ziyi only said this.
Xie Manqing instantly understood what his brother meant.
Xu Qiuqian has surprised them too much. From the beginning to now, which one has not surprised them?
Therefore, even if you lose, you will never lose easily.
Xie Manqing clicked her tongue and supported her chin with her slender hand, "It's a pity that I'm not below the sixth level of Qi Refining, otherwise I would have wanted to compete with her."
"Can't it be enough for Sister to invite her to the No. 5 ring after she gets off the ring?"
Although Arena No. 5 is also restricted to magic weapons during this period, it is not restricted to cultivation level.
"Yes! I can invite her to compete with me!" Xie Manqing's eyes lit up, "Whenever I have time, I can compete with her tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
Xie Ziyi was curious: "Sister, why don't you compete today?"
"Today's buckler is too ugly, I'm not interested." Xie Manqing rolled his eyes.
"..."
In the fourth ring, challenger No. 1 has already entered the ring.
He is a disciple specially trained by a small family and is at the sixth level of Qi refining.
Those who dare to be the first to take the stage are naturally more confident in their own abilities and naturally have some strength.
Because he knew Xu Qiuqian's identity, Xu Fan was extremely polite to Xu Qiuqian after he went to the ring and got the buckler.
"Manager Xu, I may offend you later. I hope you can understand."
Xu Qiuqian nodded to express understanding.
"The keeper of the fourth arena, Xu Qiuqian, versus the challenger, Xu Fan, the competition begins!"
At the beginning of the competition, Xu Fan was careful not to take out the buckler directly.
Xu Qiuqian naturally didn't either. Compared to her leisurely state, Xu Fan was more nervous. Anyone could see that Xu Qiuqian was in a very relaxed state.
"What does she mean? Doesn't this look down on Brother Fan too much?"
"That's right! No matter what, Brother Fan is a disciple trained by our Xu family. Although he is not as good as the disciples trained by several major families, he is not bad compared with other inner clan disciples!"
The Xu family members who were paying attention to this arena couldn't help but feel angry and felt that Xu Qiuqian did not take Xu Fan seriously.
A person at the fourth level of Qi Refining is still so relaxed when facing the sixth level of Qi Refining. Why don't you take him seriously?
"Brother Fan, come on! Knock her out!" A Xu family disciple couldn't help but yell.
Seeing this, the other Xu family disciples were not to be outdone.
Xu Qiuqian and Xu Fan on the stage naturally heard it.
Xu Qiuqian raised her eyebrows: "Why, aren't you going to take action yet? Or are you planning to wait for me to take action?"
Xu Fan smiled bitterly.
He came here this time to defeat Xu Qiuqian. Xu Qiuqian already has a certain reputation. If he defeats her, not only will he be noticed by several major families, but other casual cultivators may choose to join them. .
Therefore, he must win!
And win beautifully!
Thinking of this, Xu Fan no longer hesitated and rushed towards Xu Qiuqian.
Since the round shield could not move after being activated by spiritual power, he chose to test Xu Qiuqian's strength first.
The two of them interacted directly with each other.
After a few rounds, Xu Qiuqian had a rough understanding of Xu Fan's strength.
His melee combat ability is outstanding, his explosive power and strength are good, but he does not lose sight of one thing or the other, resulting in a weak defense. It can be seen that he is cautious and calm.
This is a man without many weaknesses.
For her, this kind of person is the most difficult.
