"A little bit, but it's not a big problem!" The smile on Qianqiu's face became proud, and he took small steps to look at the surrounding environment.

In the distance, a stream of light suddenly flew towards her, attracting Qianqiu's attention. She looked closely and found that it was a token. After the token flew into the island, it stagnated for a moment. A ring of light fell from the high-altitude formation, bringing the token into the air. After a while, the huge pressure receded like a tide.

Fang Li plopped down directly on the beach, breathing heavily. It was too uncomfortable for his body and soul to be suppressed just now.

A small white hand suddenly appeared in front of him. Qianqiu was standing in front of him, with a slight tenderness on his face. Seeing this, Fang Li stretched out his hand and placed it on her soft, boneless hand, and she pulled him up directly.

"Hurry up and practice the sword formation. We will go to the competition stage with that guy the day after tomorrow, but there are many people waiting to see your joke!" Qianqiu said softly.

"Yeah." He also nodded, unfolded the scroll of the Xuanjin Sword Formation, and began to study it carefully. He also knew that in order to completely attack him, Xiang Yeshan would definitely spread this matter throughout the Qingteng Courtyard. By then, it would not only be Huiyuan Ge who wanted to see his joke.

The island is extremely quiet and there are no disturbances, but it is a good place to concentrate on practice. Except for helping him buy food when going out, Qianqiu spent the rest of the time on the island, tinkering with her Tianleizi fire formation, and sometimes staring into the distance in a daze.

During this period, the Master also came once, warning the two of them not to get close to the center of the island, and gave Fang Li two scrolls. Fang Li took this opportunity to ask for two more days of leave, and the chief minister readily agreed.

"Buzz-buzz-"

Next to Fang Li, a looming golden sword wheel kept flashing, making a buzzing sound, and finally broke into dots of golden light with a "bang" and dissipated between the sky and the earth.

"It still doesn't work. There will be a competition tomorrow. I still can't gather the sword wheel!" Seeing this, he sighed and said with some annoyance.

"It's good that you can gather yourself to this level in two days. Don't worry, it's all about accumulation." Qianqiu was wearing a plain skirt and her feet were soaking in the cold lake water. After hearing his words, Qianqiu said softly.

He smiled bitterly and said: "The key is my success rate. Whether I can accumulate more and gain more tomorrow is still a question."

Qianqiu stood up, her long silver hair like a waterfall falling behind her. She looked at his jewel-like black eyes and suddenly smiled: "Are you so unsure of yourself? I have great confidence in you!"

The red sun sets in the west, and the afterglow shines on the island in the center of the lake, making everything golden. That touch of beauty is particularly moving...

······

Qingtengyuan, Huiwu Terrace.

Today's martial arts training platform is extremely lively. The battle between Fang Li of Wenyuan Pavilion and Xiang Yeshan of Huiyuan Pavilion had already spread throughout the Qingteng Courtyard. Xiang Yebeard even shouted arrogantly that Fang Li would never be able to hold his head up again after this battle.

In the stands of the martial arts training platform, there were many students from the Qingteng Academy who came to watch. Xiang Yebeard arrived at the venue early and led the people from Huiyuan Pavilion to occupy an area with an excellent view. Many people came up to chat with him, and there was a hint of flattery in their words.

"Brother Ye, you really came here in person. You are just a piece of trash and can be easily dealt with." A person next to him said flatteringly.

"There's no way, that little loser is looking for death, and I have to teach him a profound lesson today!" Xiang Yehan was in a very good mood at this time, with a fierce look in his eyes, and said with a smile.

"By the way, Brother Ye, how did you get knocked away last time?" Someone suddenly asked.

Xiang Yebeard stiffened and glanced at the man with a gloomy expression. The man was startled and suddenly did not dare to speak.

Thinking of what happened at the Qingqiu Banquet House last time, Xiang Ye's beard creaked with his fingers. The last time he was hacked away by that little waste was because he was unprepared, but this time, hum!

"Brother Ye, I will take care of that kid later. Let him kneel down and apologize to you, so you don't have to pull yourself down to deal with that kid!" Another person said with a smile, his face full of tears. Arrogant, he also expressed his disapproval of Fang Li in his words.

Xiang Yebeard's eyes flickered for a few times and said: "That's okay, you have to be prepared for that kid's spiritual attack. Last time, I was caught off guard and even I suffered a loss."

Hearing this, the man laughed, holding a jade pendant in his palm, and said: "Brother Tian, ​​don't worry! I promise to let him come in sideways and go out vertically!"

Soon, as more and more people watched the excitement in the venue, the sound began to become noisy. Someone even opened a bet. Xiang Yeshan's odds were only 1.1, while Fang Li's odds were as high as 2.3!

"These little guys are really interesting." On a high platform in the martial arts arena, the curtain master appeared quietly on it, sitting leisurely and murmuring.

"I wonder if your Wenyuan Pavilion will be embarrassed this time?" After the curtain master, another person appeared on the high platform, saw the curtain master, and laughed.

"Master Lin, you Huiyuan Pavilion students are a bit domineering!" Master Mu said after seeing him, his face darkened.

"Everything is based on strength. You should tell these words to the dean." Master Lin had a look of pride on his face and sat down swaggeringly, no longer paying attention to the curtain master.

"Eh? Why is she here?" Upon seeing this, the curtain master stopped dwelling on the matter. His eyes swept across the venue and suddenly stopped in an empty seat. A girl in green was sitting there quietly, with an extremely indifferent face. Looking at the venue, there was a faint green aura lingering around her. With such aura, even though she was also a stunningly beautiful person, no one else dared to approach her.

Because the aura was so cold, it was cold from the inside out.

Master Lin also discovered the girl, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes. He turned to look at the curtain master, and found that the latter also had a surprised look on his face, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it's not the helper invited by Wenyuan Pavilion, otherwise I would be embarrassed if I met Yuan Pavilion today. He thought to himself in his heart.

"I'll buy three thousand gold coins to beat Fang Li to win." Qianqiu entered the venue at some unknown time, holding an exquisite gold ticket in his hand, and said to the person who opened the market.

"Press...press whom?" When the man saw Qianqiu, he was a little stunned. Then he came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, and asked.

"Yufang Li!" Qianqiu frowned slightly and repeated it again before the man reacted. Although he was a little suspicious, he still took the golden ticket and wrote it down. Seeing this, Qianqiu nodded slightly, disappeared with a ray of silver light, and appeared in the Wenyuan Pavilion area.

"He Zhu, if that Yu Fangli wins, you will suffer a big loss!" Someone next to him turned his attention to the man and said with a frown, "Now that Yu Fangli's odds have risen to 2.6, 10,000 Once he wins, it will be seven to eight thousand gold coins!"

Then He Zhu looked at Qianqiu's back with a fiery look in his eyes: "What's wrong with winning? It's worth losing if you can make such a beautiful woman smile. Besides, can Yu Fangli win?"

After finishing speaking, he murmured in a low voice: "There is such a beauty in Wenyuan Pavilion. I have never seen it before..."

Seeing this, his friend could only sigh helplessly: "He is another guy who is dazzled by beauty. Fortunately, I have escaped from the mortal world in advance."

"Qianqiu! How was it?" Qianqiu had just returned when a person next to him asked.

"Okay, let's wait for the big profits!" Qianqiu smiled slightly, his eyes were very smart, and he said very confidently.

A few minutes later, the venue suddenly became quiet, and all eyes were focused on the stage. Fang Li suddenly appeared on the stage in a smart outfit, his jewel-like black eyes staring coldly at Xiang Ye's beard in the audience.

"Hey, is this Yu Fangli from Wenyuan Pavilion?"

"He looks quite handsome..."

"He is handsome, but he has no brains."

"······"

There were whispers in the audience.

Seeing Fang Li appear, Xiang Yebeard sneered, stood up and said, "Little loser, I thought you didn't dare to come today! Since you have the courage to ask for a beating, then I will help you!"

The people in Huiyuan Pavilion around him suddenly burst into laughter, and many looked at Fang Li with gloating eyes, wondering how he would respond. In recent years, fewer and fewer people have followed the spirit consciousness path, which has led to the decline of Wenyuan Pavilion. Therefore, Wenyuan Pavilion has gradually become synonymous with being easy to bully.

"Come up if you have the ability. What's the point of showing off your words?" Fang Li said calmly. Faced with everyone's teasing, he still took it indifferently and was not affected by his words at all.

With such a character, even the curtain master on the high platform nodded slightly. He is indeed a little guy who can be favored by Mr. Xiang Tian. This kind of character is indeed much better than that of Xiang Yebeard.

Xiang Yebeard smiled instead of getting angry: "Want to challenge me? You must have the qualifications! Not every cat or dog is worthy of my action!"

"That's right! A useless dog with no vitality is not worth Brother Tian's action!" Someone immediately echoed beside Xiang Yehan.

"Where did my defeated general come from so much nonsense? If you have the ability, go ahead!" On the side of Wenyuan Pavilion, Qianqiu couldn't stand it anymore and stood up and said angrily. "It's so annoying. If you don't know, you might think it's a monster!"

"Wow! When did such a beautiful woman come out!"

"This appearance is incomparable to that one!"

"······"

Everyone looked at the person who made the noise, and immediately let out bursts of exclamations. There was a hint of anger on Qingguo's face, but it also added a bit of agility, with flowing silver hair and an extraordinary temperament.

Seeing that everyone around her was looking over, Qianqiu snorted and sat down again.

There was some jealousy in Xiang Ye's beard, and he glanced around without any trace. The man immediately understood, turned around and jumped onto the martial arts platform, and sneered: "Boy, if you know what's going on, you'd better kowtow to Brother Ye and admit your mistake! Otherwise, it's over." A limb or something is not good."

"Despicable means!" Seeing this, the curtain master cursed angrily.

"Methods are also a type of strength." Master Lin laughed, obviously in a very good mood.

"It's actually Chen Tai? That guy is in Huiyuan Pavilion. Although he is not as good as Xiang Yeshan, he is still considered a master!" Some people in the audience were talking.

Fang Li's eyes flickered for a while, and finally he snorted coldly: "If you plan to play for him, then take over!" Beside him, formations quickly took shape, and five formations appeared in an instant. He pointed forward and rushed towards Chen Tai with a fierce attack.
