Chapter 283 Qingyu Sect gets a bye

After the elders finished tallying the results, they called out, "Everyone, come and draw lots!"

The disciples of the Five Elements Sect, Azure Dragon Sword Sect, and Joyful Union Sect rushed over.

Shen Youqing nervously pulled out the bamboo stick.

"We get a bye!" Shen Youqing grinned broadly as he looked at the blank bamboo stick. "We get a bye!"

Liang Shimu looked at it and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

Shen Xingzhi and her three companions had already started walking towards the arena.

The Qingyu Sect and Lingxiao Sect, vying for fourth place, also entered the arena for the competition.

Shen Youqing looked around.

Before we knew it, it was already noon.

Xiao Ke took out a package of oil paper and waved it in front of Shen Youqing. After her gaze was drawn to it, he unwrapped the oil paper to reveal the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) inside.

"Your hand is injured, so it's inconvenient for you to hold it." Xiao Ke fed the fragrant roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) to him.

Shen Youqing boldly lowered his head and took a big bite, chewing as he watched the sparring match on the stage.

The enticing aroma of meat slowly wafted through the air.

Their close associates were deeply poisoned by this.

The other cultivators were also suffering. The faint aroma was incredibly tempting, and although they were mostly cultivators who practiced fasting, they felt extremely hungry at this moment.

Shen Quelin was not one to compromise himself; he tugged at Shen Youqing's sleeve, his meaning quite clear.

Shen Youqing reached out his hand to Xiao Ke.

Xiao Ke took out a package of oil paper and handed it directly to Shen Quelin.

With Shen Quelin setting a precedent, the other disciples couldn't bear to do the same.

Before long, almost every one of the disciples who hadn't yet stepped onto the fighting stage had a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger).

The young masters of the surrounding families were not spared either.

Yue Ruoshui looked at the oil paper package in her hand, remained silent for a moment, then opened it and took a small, refined bite.

The rich, tender braised meat paired with a crispy outer shell creates an aroma that fills your mouth.

Delicious!
The moon, weak and the water dark, subtly quickened its chewing speed.

The other cultivators watched the group, scolding them for going too far while swallowing hard.

……

"The Azure Dragon Sword Sect wins!"

As the elder's voice faded, Shen Youqing handed the bamboo tube to Xiao Ke, and then he and Liang Shimu prepared to go on stage.

After Shen Xingzhi and Jiang Zhi finished their breathing exercises, the two disciples took the stage.

Greet them with a bow, then get right to work.

Shen Youqing drew her sword and rushed towards Jiang Zhi to stop her and Shen Xingzhi from starting a sword formation.

Liang Shimu, accompanied by a five-tailed white fox, confronted Shen Xingzhi.

Those watching Shen Youqing, who said he wouldn't use the healing array, whispered amongst themselves.

"Shen Youqing should be a sword cultivator!"

"That's Jiang Zhi from the Azure Dragon Sword Sect! It's only been a short time, and she's already struggling to keep up. Shen Youqing's swordsmanship... is she really not a sword cultivator?"

"She's a talisman master."

"This is such a waste! Shen Youqing should really be a sword cultivator!"

……

Shen Youqing on the arena did not use the Yue family's swordsmanship, nor did she use her own swordsmanship; she used the Qingyu Sect's swordsmanship!
Shen Qiulu, who was watching from a distance, almost lost her composure when she saw Shen Youqing's swordsmanship.

Seeing Shen Qiuluo's pale face, Zhang Xunyu asked, puzzled, "Qiuluo, what's wrong?"

"Qiu Luo, you look unwell. What's wrong?" A gentle, concerned voice asked. It was Ying Lian, a disciple from another sect.

Seeing the concerned expressions of the people around her, Shen Qiuluo kept a straight face and gave a look that seemed like she was about to cry. "Sister used a sword technique from the Qingyu Sect."

Everyone looked at it.

Jiang Chenying watched Shen Youqing's smooth and fluid swordplay and asked Xie Changyan, "Did you teach him?"

Xie Changyan shook his head. "It wasn't me."

It wasn't the second junior brother or him, so where did Shen Youqing learn it from? "Does this count as stealing knowledge?" Chi Guyuan asked helplessly.

Shen Youqing truly lives up to his name!
Her swordsmanship is probably going to infuriate Shen Qiuluo.

“It shouldn’t count,” Jing Liang said thoughtfully. “She’s been at Erjie Peak for so long, it’s normal for her to have learned something.”

Without anyone teaching him, one can only say that Shen Youqing's talent is truly remarkable.

"Won't it cause trouble to study such a wide variety of subjects?" Qi Bumian asked with some concern.

Jiang Chenying thought for a moment, "Probably not."

She knows many of the Yue family's sword techniques, as well as Xiao Ke's swordplay, and now she also knows the Qingyu Sect's swordplay.

She used these sword techniques skillfully and smoothly, without any confusion or disarray.

It can only be said that Shen Youqing's talent in swordsmanship is truly terrifying.

"Sect Leader Zhang also taught them the sword techniques of the Qingyu Sect?" Liu Xingchui asked Zhang Youli.

Zhang Youli shook his head, "She must have been self-taught."

Seeing Shen Youqing's skillful use of sword techniques, Liu Xingchui's eyes widened slightly.

“The Qingyu Sect’s techniques and sword moves are quite domineering and incompatible with other techniques.” Zhang Youli looked at Shen Youqing’s moves. “She has only learned a few of the most basic sword moves.”

"Her basic sword techniques already far surpass those of the other disciples," Liu Xingchui exclaimed. "Why isn't such a sword genius from our Azure Dragon Sword Sect!"

Kong Yan spoke slowly, "Your Azure Dragon Sword Sect has already snatched the eldest daughter of the Shen family."

The more she looked at it, the more she wanted to go and beat Hua Yuan up!
Liu Xingchui choked.

Hua Yuan's eyes and brows radiated a proud and honored expression. "Xiao Youqing is amazing! Shi Mu is also quite good, he has made great progress."

Kong Yan didn't want to talk.

After observing the battle on the arena, Liu Xingchui had a clear understanding of the situation.

Azhi is no match for Shen Youqing; their Azure Dragon Sword Sect is destined to lose this round.

The situation on the arena was exactly as Liu Xingchui had predicted.

Jiang Zhi was already showing signs of defeat under Shen Youqing's sword techniques, but she refused to admit defeat and kept resisting until she was finally knocked away by a sword.

Ji Fuchuan and the others below the arena quickly caught Jiang Zhi.

Yue Xunzhu, who was standing to the side, raised her hand and made a hand seal, casting a healing array.

Jiang Zhi swallowed the blood in his throat, stood up straight, and bowed to Yue Xunzhu to express his gratitude.

When the two siblings joined forces on the arena, Shen Xingzhi was quickly defeated.

"Hehuan Zongsheng!"

Liang Shimu was about to give Shen Youqing a high five to celebrate, but when he saw her hand wrapped in bandages, he immediately withdrew his hand, turned around, and jumped down to find others to celebrate with.

Shen Youqing jumped off the arena with the five-tailed white fox that had been left aside.

The shrunken fox nestled in Shen Youqing's arms, its tail drooping and swaying.

Yue Xunzhu cast a healing spell on these people.

The Azure Dragon Sword Sect and the Five Elements Sect turned around and went up on stage to compete for second place.

Today's doubles match was much faster than yesterday's triples match.

About an hour later, the rankings for the doubles competition were announced.

Seeing that the disciples were all in good condition, the elders directly had them draw lots to play a five-person match.

"A five-person match?"

"The Hehuan Sect is first in both the doubles and triples competitions. I wonder what their ranking will be in the five-person competition."

"With Shen Youqing around, they'll probably be number one."

"Is the Hehuan Sect really that strong? Then why was it always ranked last before?"

"Clearly, they've been playing this game all along!"

……

The whispers had no effect on the five direct descendants.

In a five-to-three format, one team will naturally receive a bye.

When Jiang Chenying revealed the blank bamboo skewer, the other four members of the sect almost ground their molars to powder.

Not only are they incredibly strong, but they're also incredibly lucky?!
