In fact, Xu Qiuqian always knew that Li Shiqian was capable.
This can be seen from her daily interactions, her observation of Li Shiqian's movements, and the competition that night.
Just imagine, a casual cultivator in his thirties with three spiritual roots can reach the eleventh level of Qi refining. Although he is not as good as those disciples of sects and aristocratic families with resources, he is far ahead of most cultivators of the same age. surpass and leave them behind.
Casual cultivation is difficult. Under such difficult circumstances, the fact that Li Shiqian can still reach the eleventh level of Qi refining is enough to show that luck and strength are indispensable.
If she hadn't been targeted by the Zhao family and valued her cooking potential, how could she have wasted twenty years?
In the past twenty years, Li Shiqian has never practiced fighting skills and spent every day in the kitchen.
Therefore, in the more than twenty days since the start of the arena competition, rather than saying that Li Shiqian is competing, it is better to say that she is trying to regain her original feeling during the competition.
Now it seems that she has almost recovered it.
"How did she win?"
Even Tian Wei on the stage looked in disbelief.
"How is it possible? Why did I lose?!"
Just now, he clearly moved the Shadowless Step to the fourth level that he can currently reach. Even the monks on the twelfth level of Qi Refining may not be able to catch his figure, let alone Li Shiqian who lost to him before!
But that's the truth.
Li Shiqian not only captured it, but also killed it with one strike.
"Why?" He looked at Li Shiqian, "Did you pretend it last time?"
How else to explain Li Shiqian's rapid progress in just a few days?
Li Shiqian smiled slightly: "I'm just a little more serious."
The smile was very much like the way Xu Qiuqian looked when he was humble. In short, he deserved a beating.
"..."
It's definitely pretending!
Just wait for them to take the bait.
This way you can attract them to the scene, then torture them severely and laugh at them!
What a vicious woman!
Tian Wei pointed at Li Shiqian in disbelief, his hands trembling: "You, you..."
"Fellow Daoist Tian, are you okay? Can you still get off the ring? Do you need me to help you down?" Li Shiqian pretended to be worried.
"No need! You think I made a mistake!" Tian Wei gritted his teeth and got off the stage.
"Wait." Li Shiqian called him.
"Anything else?"
"What do you think? Don't you remember the reason why I stood in the ring to compete with you?"
Only then did Tian Wei remember.
After a moment of silence, he reluctantly said: "You are indeed more qualified than me to be a grocery store clerk, okay?"
"Ok, Ok."
Tian Wei stepped down in a hurry. There were so many people paying attention this time. He was the first to challenge Li Shiqian. He was full of confidence, but lost in the end. How could he still have the nerve to stay?
After getting off the ring, he disappeared into the crowd.
Li Shiqian on the stage finally couldn't help laughing out loud.
So cool, so cool!
In the past, when Qiu Qian treated her like this, she was helpless and resentful. Now she tried it and found that it was really good.
Especially when I see the other person being speechless, looking like he can't stand her but can't do anything to her, it's so funny, hahahaha!
Everyone in the audience looked at each other in shock.
what happened?
"Is she really pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?"
"But if that's the case, then why did she do that before?"
I haven't performed well for twenty days in a row, and sometimes I even lose very embarrassingly.
Why do you pretend like this?
"Is it possible that she is not faking it?" someone speculated.
"If she wasn't pretending, then what would she say if she won Daoist Fellow Tian just now?"
Yes, I can't figure it out even after thinking about it.
Everyone couldn't help but turn their attention to Xu Qiuqian and Yun Yi, "Fellow Daoist Xu and Daoist Yun, can you two help us clear up our doubts?"
Yun Yi had a cold expression and said nothing. He had always been like this, not even bothering to look at people he didn't care about.
Xu Qiuqian smiled, but this smile seemed mysterious.
"Can't you see it?" she said pointedly.
"What are you looking at?"
Everyone was confused and couldn't figure it out, but Xu Qiuqian didn't continue to explain, which really made them worried.
Soon, another monk came on stage again.
This time it is the twelfth level of Qi Refining.
In view of the performance just now, a small number of people recognized Li Shiqian's strength, so even if a monk at the twelfth level of Qi Refining came on stage, others did not have much objection.
Yun Yi was a little worried. After all, even if Shi Qian slowly adapted to it, those with a higher level of cultivation would not be so easy to deal with.
He turned to look at Xu Qiuqian, who was calm and relaxed, and he felt relieved.
Sister Qiu Qian didn't panic, which meant that Sister Shiqian was probably stable.
However, seeing Li Shiqian on the stage having an increasingly difficult time coping, he couldn't help but ask Xu Qiuqian: "Sister Qiuqian, will Sister Shiqian lose?"
Xu Qiuqian hummed.
Yun Yi was stunned.
Will lose?
"Then why aren't you worried?" Or does it mean that it doesn't matter whether Sister Shiqian wins or loses?
"Generally speaking, you will lose." Xu Qiuqian responded.
Yun Yi was even more confused.
So are there other scenarios?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Xu Qiuqian put his hands to his mouth in the shape of a trumpet.
"Shiqian, his weak point is his waist, just focus on attacking his waist!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other monks nearby became dissatisfied.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, you are going a little too far!"
"That's right!"
Xu Qiuqian turned back to look at the person who made the noise: "What? Isn't it too much to bully someone with the 11th level of Qi Refining with the 12th level of Qi Refining? And did the referee say that this is not allowed?"
That's not the case.
"But……"
But after a long time, no one else could think of anything to refute.
The referee didn't say anything.
Everyone had no choice but to continue watching.
The monk on the stage panicked when he heard Xu Qiuqian's words. He didn't even know how Xu Qiuqian discovered his weakness in such a short period of time!
The strength of his waist is indeed not very good.
Li Shiqian also heard Xu Qiuqian's words, and then began to target his waist.
With such a short sentence, the situation turned around instantly.
Li Shiqian, who had struggled to cope just now, suddenly seemed to be much more at ease, and as she deliberately targeted the opponent's waist, her expression became more relaxed.
In addition, she herself is not bad at all.
Soon, the man was defeated.
The referee declared Li Shiqian the winner.
Li Shiqian still asked the other party to admit that she was qualified to become a grocery store clerk.
But the man was very dissatisfied.
"If Fellow Daoist Xu hadn't told you about my weaknesses, do you think I would have lost?"
Li Shiqian sneered.
"If it weren't for your twelfth level of Qi refining, do you think I would lose?"
"..."
It can only be said that Xu Qiuqian's reminder just made up for the gap at this level, otherwise even if Li Shiqian won, it would be extremely difficult.
The man could only admit it reluctantly in the end.
And what happened in Arena No. 5 was also spread.
More and more monks came towards Arena No. 5 out of curiosity.
Someone looked at more and more monks.
Those monks said: "I heard that those who win in Arena No. 5 can enter the Spirit Guiding Array to practice for free anytime and anywhere. Is it true?"
In the flash of lightning, he understood something and shouted.
"I know why Li Shiqian hides his strength!"
