"Sister Shiqian, don't take it to heart. He just wants to anger Sister Qiu Qian, and it's not up to them whether he is worthy or not." Yun Yi quickly comforted Li Shiqian, fearing that Li Shiqian would have random thoughts.
Li Shiqian smiled, but the smile was a little forced: "I'm fine, because what he said is the truth."
What they said is also true.
she thinks.
Compared to Qiu Qian and Xiao Yi, she is indeed inferior.
No matter how hard she tried, practiced hard, worked hard, and trained hard, she could not improve as fast as Qiu Qian and Xiao Yi just practicing casually.
She thought she had long been used to it and accepted it.
But it wasn't until someone else mentioned it that I realized that she had accepted it but wasn't used to it.
"Sister Shiqian is already very powerful, you..."
"Xiao Yi, you don't need to comfort me, I know everything." Li Shiqian looked at the expressionless Xu Qiuqian on the stage, "I know everything..."
She never cared about Qiu Qian and never mentioned it, presumably to protect her poor self-esteem.
If she hadn't given up practicing in the past twenty years, she should be able to build a foundation now, right?
Unfortunately, there is no if.
And whether in the eyes of others or in the hearts of Qiu Qian and Xiao Yi, she is far inferior to them.
This was a fact she had to admit.
"Having poor qualifications and average cultivation?" Xu Qiuqian repeated expressionlessly.
"Isn't it? She should be in her forties or fifties. She only has the eleventh level of Qi refining in her forties and fifties. What else can she do if she doesn't have poor qualifications?"
"Then do you know that she wasted twenty years because of something. If she had been practicing for these twenty years, her current cultivation level must be higher than yours."
Duan Yuang frowned.
He really didn't expect that Li Shiqian would be idle for twenty years, but so what?
"Even without these twenty years, her qualifications are really mediocre."
"Because she doesn't have the sect's resources like you."
Hearing this, Duan Yuang's face darkened.
"Do you think my current cultivation level is all because of the sect's resources?"
"Is not it?"
"Even if there is, it's only a small part. It's more about my talent and hard work!"
Xu Qiuqian sneered.
"Work hard? Who doesn't work hard?" She looked coldly, "If she had resources like you at the beginning, let alone foundation building, foundation building would be sparse and ordinary in the middle and later stages."
After saying that, she looked under the ring again.
"And those of you who are clamoring to be better than her. If you really think you are better than her, then go up and compete with her. If you beat her, you can say you are better than her!"
The clamor that his cultivation level was higher than Li Shiqian's was enough. She had just seen several people at the eighth and ninth levels of Qi Refining saying that they were better than Li Shiqian.
How ridiculous.
Xu Qiuqian was scolded, and the monks also scolded her back, "She is at the eleventh level of Qi refining, and I am only at the seventh level. You want me to compete with her? How can you be so embarrassed!"
"You know you're embarrassed, right? I didn't feel embarrassed when I said you were better than her just now. If you think you're too thick-skinned, you can come to me. I don't mind helping you shave it off!"
As soon as he finished speaking, other monks couldn't help laughing.
"This store manager Xu is really sharp-tongued."
The monk who was insulted knew that he was in the wrong and did not fight back again.
Then another monk spoke up.
"Then I say that I'm better than her. Store Manager Xu shouldn't have any objections, right? After all, I beat her a few days ago."
Xu Qiuqian looked over.
Twelve levels of Qi refining.
She smiled slightly: "Yes, the 12th level of Qi refining beat the 11th level of Qi refining. If you win, you will praise yourself for being great. How can you be so thick-skinned? If you really think you are powerful, you can compete with me later. I am also a qi refining person." Level 12, I have absolutely no problem with you praising yourself if you win."
"..."
"What about me? I beat her too!"
This is the eleventh level of Qi refining.
Xu Qiuqian looked surprised: "Have you never been defeated by a fellow practitioner?"
"..."
"What about me? Not only did I defeat her, but I was also defeated by a fellow practitioner!" He was still at the eleventh level of Qi Refining.
"What's wrong with you? It's just good luck. I really feel that I am powerful. I can also help you find disciples from the eleventh level of Qi Refining in several major families to compete with you and see if you can keep winning."
"..."
In this way, Xu Qiuqian will attack anyone who speaks out.
He was so angry that everyone was speechless.
At this time, someone whispered: "But you and the other clerk can win with a low cultivation level and a high cultivation level, but she can't. At most, she can barely do it. She can't even compare with those with a higher level of cultivation. She is incompatible with you." , doesn’t this mean you’re not worthy?”
This is true.
Xu Qiuqian originally wanted to say that you don't need to have the final say whether he is worthy or not.
But before she could make a sound, a voice suddenly sounded: "Since you think I'm not worthy, then go on stage and compete with me. If you think you are more suitable than me, you can also go on stage and compete with me. If I lose, I will take my place for you." , if you lose, admit that I am qualified to stay in the grocery store, do you dare or not?!"
It was Li Shiqian who said it.
Next to him, Yun Yi advised Li Shiqian not to be impulsive.
These people are obviously just watching the excitement and don't take it too seriously.
Li Shiqian shook his head.
"I wasn't impulsive and I knew what I was doing."
Qiu Qian protects her so much, and thinks she is very powerful from the bottom of her heart, but she is reduced to what she is now due to various reasons, so how can she let Qiu Qian down?
Even if she risked her life today, she would have to prove herself!
"Is any cultivation acceptable?"
"Under Foundation Establishment, any cultivation level is possible."
"Okay! I'll do it then!"
"I'll come, I'll come!"
Those who echoed were basically those at level 11 or above of Qi Refining, and many of them had beaten Li Shiqian before.
Yun Yi looked at the ring anxiously, hoping that Xu Qiuqian could persuade Li Shiqian.
However, Xu Qiuqian on the stage smiled.
"Come on Shiqian, I believe you can do it!"
His eyes were full of trust, without the slightest trace of worry.
Li Shiqian smiled back.
She waved her hand and said: "Qiu Qian, just wait for my good news!"
"good!"
Xu Qiuqian watched Li Shiqian walking towards Arena No. 5, and then turned her eyes back to Duan Yuang.
"Let's fight quickly." She also wanted to cheer Shiqian up.
He said that among the many restricted items, he chose the Shadow Moon Blade.
Because it's closest to her.
She was in a hurry.
Duan Yuang sneered when he heard Xu Qiuqian's tone.
Do you really think this is a child's play competition below the sixth level of Qi refining?
He also chose his favorite magical weapon.
"Then let's get started!"
As soon as the words fell, Xu Qiuqian disappeared from sight in an instant.
He was still looking for Xu Qiuqian's figure, but the other party was already approaching him like a ghost.
Duan Yuang's pupils shrank and he subconsciously retreated.
But Xu Qiuqian didn't give her this chance at all. She struck quickly and accurately. The Shadow Moon Blade approached and stopped an inch away from his neck.
Duan Yuang didn't react at all during the whole process.
By the time he reacted, he had already lost.
Did he lose?
"Looking down on others, I thought you were so powerful. The sect disciples from the outer city are nothing more than that."
