Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 273 Three-person team competition

Xiao Ke didn't react much.

Team competitions are about teamwork, and he's not the kind of person who would disregard the bigger picture for personal gain.

If you can't play doubles, can't you just play five-player matches?
Shen Youqing returned the little fox to Liang Shimu, and then patted Xiao Ke on the shoulder.

The sudden reassurance was an unexpected joy for Xiao Ke.

"Which of the three should go?" Lin Youran asked.

“You’re definitely going.” Lin Jinyao looked at the group and said thoughtfully, “If you won’t fight five people, then you can fight three.”

Let her think about it: which faction is more likely to win in a three-on-one battle?
"Me, you and Fourth Junior Brother?" Lin Youran asked.

It's not that she doesn't value Xiao Ke, but for two alchemists to compete in a three-person competition, isn't that just giving away points?
“You and your two junior brothers,” Lin Jinyao said.

Lin Youran was puzzled.

“Fourth Junior Brother can cover you, and Fifth Junior Brother is more agile, capable of close combat and poisoning. Your main responsibility will be poisoning,” Lin Jinyao said. “Isn’t that more flexible and adaptable than me going?”

Lin Youran actually found it somewhat reasonable.

“No problem,” Yang Yousheng said.

Xiao Ke nodded slightly to indicate that he was also fine.

Shen Youqing silently raised his hand, "We haven't really worked out together much."

Five people: ...

This is a good question!

"Let's cram at the last minute!" Liang Shimu sighed. "No one should rest after registering tomorrow!"

-

Two days later.

"We'll start with the three-person team competition today. The five relatives will be here to draw lots!"

As soon as the elder gave the order, the participants from each sect who were competing in the three-person team competition went to draw lots.

"Shen Youqing isn't playing in the three-person match?"

"Looks like she's going to play both doubles and five-person matches!"

"How come the Hehuan Sect consists of Lin Youran, Yang Yousheng, and Xiao Ke?"

"The Azure Jade Sect consists of Chi Guyuan, Qi Bumian, and Jing Liang!"

"The Azure Dragon Sword Sect consists of Ji Fuchuan, Ming Jixue, and Hua Ci."

"The Five Elements Sect has Mu Feibai, Gu Xingluan, and Lu Ye, while the Lingxiao Sect has Jiang Xuan'an, Yin Zhongyu, and Ye Zhenzhou. What are the Hehuan Sect and the Lingxiao Sect up to? Two alchemists?"

"I wonder which team will get a bye."

……

"We get a bye! We'll get a bye and still make it into the top three!"

Lin Youran held up the blank slip in her hand, overjoyed.

Every game we can avoid is a game we can fight!
"Good luck," Liang Shimu complimented, then walked towards the arena. "Let's go watch their match."

The group of people took off after them.

Before long, the area below the arena was filled with people, with the innermost layer naturally consisting of the direct disciples of the five sects.

"Qingyu Sect versus Canglong Sword Sect, six disciples from both sects step onto the stage!"

Chi Guyuan and his two companions, along with Ji Fuchuan and his two companions, walked up from both sides, bowed and greeted each other before starting their attack.

Rune arrays and sword light instantly illuminated the area.

Ji Fuchuan was held back by Qi Bumian in close combat, Ming Jixue swung her longsword and cleaved the talisman array, while Jing Liang dodged Hua Ci's longsword.

"Each of us does our own thing?" Shen Youqing tilted his head and asked Shen Xingzhi beside him.

Shen Xingzhi glanced at Shen Youqing and asked in a serious tone, "Spying on the enemy?"

"Oh dear." Shen Youqing, linking arms with Shen Xingzhi, said in a serious tone, "Your Azure Dragon Sword Sect's sword formation is outstanding, why don't they use it?"

"Is it that they don't want to use it?" Shen Xingzhi said speechlessly, "Look at Chi Guyuan, look at Qi Bumian, they directly scattered them!"

Shen Youqing gave a faint smile.

Looking at the situation on the arena, Jiang Zhi pondered, "They want to win this round with a sword formation, but the three disciples of the Qingyu Sect are very troublesome. Jing Liang is going to use poison."

Shen Xingzhi crossed her arms. "I hope we can win."

"No wonder so many people want to go to the Azure Jade Sect. These direct disciples of the Azure Jade Sect are living advertisements." Shen Quelin's clear and crisp voice rang out from behind. Shen Youqing turned around abruptly.

The young man standing behind her raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?"

"It's been a long time since I've seen you," Shen Youqing said, turning his gaze back to the arena.

While watching the game, Shen Quelin said, "Not even a month, is that a long time?"

"Has it been a while?" Shen Youqing leaned back slightly and asked in a low voice, "Are you awake?"

After realizing who Shen Youqing was asking about, Shen Quelin replied in a low voice, "He must be awake. Here he comes."

Shen Youqing followed Shen Quelin's gaze.

If you really say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

Shen Qiuluo, dressed in a white dress, walked slowly in, accompanied by the elders of the Punishment Hall and Zhang Xunyu and several others from the Changxing Sect.

Because Shen Qiuluo revealed the Mysterious Maiden Diagram to block the power of the self-destruction, her reputation improved almost overnight.

However, the disqualifications that were supposed to be cancelled were still cancelled.

Looking at her protégés competing in the ring, Shen Qiuluo revealed a hint of sadness and regret.

Seeing Shen Qiuluo's dejected and sad face, Zhang Xunyu felt a pang of heartache.

"Autumn falls..."

Shen Qiulu smiled and said, "I'm fine."

Seeing Shen Qiu's forced and bittersweet smile, Zhang Xunyu felt a pang of heartache and spoke up for her, "That Shen Youqing is really... ah!!"

With a hint of moisture in her eyes, Shen Qiulu looked up and saw a bright handprint on Zhang Xunyu's face.

"How am I doing?"

The cultivators who were blocking Shen Youqing and Zhang Xunyu spontaneously dispersed to both sides.

Zhang Xunyu's face was swollen and painful on one side. Her eyes were red with anger as she pointed at Shen Youqing and cursed, "You vixen! If it weren't for you..."

With a crisp slap, the other half of Zhang Xunyu's face also turned red.

The slaps delivered with spiritual power were almost merciless.

Blood slowly trickled from the corner of Zhang Xunyu's mouth.

Shen Youqing rubbed his wrist and raised his voice, "Shen Youqing of the Hehuan Sect hereby challenges the disciples of the Changxing Sect."

Under Shen Youqing's icy gaze, Zhang Xunyu was so frightened that she took a step back.

"Sister..." Shen Qiulu looked at Shen Youqing with disapproval.

Shen Youqing narrowed his eyes. "You want to get slapped a couple of times too?"

Shen Qiulu's eyes were brimming with tears, as if she had been frightened by Shen Youqing.

"Let's watch the arena." Shen Quelin turned Shen Youqing around, then glanced at Shen Qiuluo with a cold, sharp look, his eyes carrying a warning.

As Shen Youqing turned to watch the match on the stage, the separated crowd gradually returned to their seats to continue watching.

Zhang Xunyu covered her face after being slapped twice, secretly filled with resentment.

"Xunyu, that's just how my sister is..." Shen Qiuluo said apologetically, her expression showing some restraint, "I apologize to you on behalf of my sister."

As she spoke, Shen Qiuluo took out a bottle of pills and handed it over.

Zhang Xunyu gave a grateful smile and then took the porcelain bottle.

Jiang Chenying and Xie Changyan, standing below the arena, didn't even glance at the scene; they watched the entire battle unfold on the arena.

The sword cultivators of the Azure Dragon Sword Sect are not to be underestimated; it will be difficult for the three junior brothers to win.

“With the poison ineffective, Fifth Junior Brother will be at a great disadvantage against a sword cultivator,” Xie Changyan’s icy voice rang out.

The sword cultivators of the Azure Dragon Sword Sect are a bit reckless, but they are not fools.

Faced with the three who were already on guard, Jing Liang's poison was ineffective, and he could only be overwhelmed by Hua Ci.

Jiang Chenying responded.

Looking at the situation on the arena, Shen Youqing suddenly thought of something.

"Senior brother," Shen Youqing called out, and Xiao Ke, who was standing next to him, came over.

Seeing that she had something to say, the tall man bent down and leaned close to her ear, finishing the conversation in one smooth motion.

Shen Youqing whispered two words in his ear.

After Shen Youqing finished speaking, Xiao Ke looked at her with some hesitation.
