Simultaneous travel: My sons all have the qualities of an emperor

Chapter 394 Battle of the Prodigies on Both Sides of the Strait

Time flies, and soon the great battle between the North and South banks will begin.

The disciples of the South Bank, who had been suppressed by the North Bank for a thousand years, were unusually excited at this moment. They couldn't wait to see the disciples of the North Bank suffer a setback.

On the other side, morale was low. Upon seeing this, the leader of the North Bank immediately said, "What are you afraid of? No matter how powerful Bai Xiaochun is, he is just one person."

Upon hearing this, the disciple from the North Shore suddenly realized and said, "So, Master, you mean that if we all attack at once, Bai Xiaochun might not be able to do anything to us?"

The North Shore Sect Leader was silent for a moment, then said with a kind and gentle expression, "You are my North Shore disciple, and you have a very quick mind."

The disciple straightened his chest and said, "Thank you for your praise, Master. I am known in the sect for my great intelligence."

"Hmm, good, you clever one. From today onwards, you are no longer my disciple of the North Bank. Go to the South Bank. My North Bank has no need for fools."

The North Shore Sect Leader said with great distress, "You have the numbers and the power, yet Bai Xiaochun couldn't do anything to you. Didn't you see Xingchen's face-to-face confrontation that day?!"

What I mean is, even if Bai Xiaochun takes first place, so what if the top ten are decided between the North and South? You can just take the top nine!

All the disciples' eyes gleamed. That's right! If they couldn't beat Bai Xiaochun, they could just give up. Besides Bai Xiaochun, there weren't many people on the South Bank who caught their eye. Glory would still belong to the North Bank!

Sect Leader Zheng Yuandong appeared on the terrace. After looking around at the disciples on both the north and south banks, his gaze lingered on Bai Xiaochun for a moment before he suddenly spoke.

"The outer sect qualification battle between the North and South banks: the North bank, having won the championship, can now send twelve people to fight, while the South bank can send ten people to fight. The opponents will be determined by drawing lots, and the top ten outer sect disciples will be selected... to choose the strongest number one outer sect disciple!"

"Start now!"

As he spoke, Zheng Yuandong flicked his sleeve, and a ball of light appeared out of thin air, splitting into twenty-two parts that flew towards the crowd in the north and south.

"First stop, those who have one or two beads, come up to the platform."

Then a person silently flew out from the north bank. He was dressed in a black robe, had an ordinary appearance, and a pale face. The moment he flew out, the surroundings seemed to distort.

It was as if countless evil spirits were lurking in the void, ready to burst forth from the underworld and wreak havoc on the human world.

"It's Senior Brother Guiya! He has mastered one of the ten secret techniques of our Lingxi Sect, Ghost Night Walk, and can be called the number one genius of the North Shore. With him leading this battle, our North Shore will undoubtedly win!"

The North Shore disciples were greatly encouraged, but the next group of people who came up next made them uneasy.

Even Guiya's originally calm expression turned extremely ugly; it was Bai Xiaochun!
Although he usually kept a low profile, he already considered himself the number one genius, and he didn't even take Shangguan Tianyou from the South Bank seriously.

But Bai Xiaochun... that day, when the stars were right in his face, he was cultivating diligently, which no one had ever seen before, so they instinctively didn't believe it.

But as more and more stories about Bai Xiaochun emerged, he couldn't help but feel a little wary.

He still clearly remembers what his master said to him yesterday: "Ghost Fang, with your strength you can look down on the younger generation of Lingxi Sect, but if you encounter Bai Xiaochun... then you should surrender."

Guiya knew that his master was not a liar or a boastful person, so he valued Bai Xiaochun very much.

But who would have thought that his first battle would be against Bai Xiaochun? That's fucking ridiculous!
Then Bai Xiaochun appeared surrounded by the crowd, constantly waving to the female disciples who looked at him, acting extremely flamboyant.

And so, it was as if Bai Xiaochun had arrived not on the final stage of a competition, but as if he had entered his own personal show.

"Ahem, you must be Guiya, a disciple from the North Shore. Not bad, you have a lot of energy and spirit. I'm very pleased."

Bai Xiaochun adopted the air of an elder and looked at Guiya with loving eyes.

Upon hearing this, Guiya couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body. What a damn pretentious guy! I really want to beat him up!

Then he took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his resolve was unwavering.

Everyone says you have incredible luck, but I, Ghost Fang, simply don't believe it!

As he finished speaking, black mist rose from Ghost Fang's entire body, within which ghostly figures flickered and howls of ghosts and wolves rang out, as if opening a gate of defense.

The vengeful ghosts, each with a hideous face, some with disheveled hair, some covered in green skin, and some rotting beyond recognition, instantly filled the entire area with an aura of death.
“However, out of respect for you, I have decided to lift the seal on my body.” With that, Ghost Fang reached out and summoned a large green wooden banner, his right hand forming a hand seal.

With a hum, his body trembled violently, and streams of black energy surged out of his body, causing his body to swell to more than double. The strength of his aura was already at the limit of the Qi Condensation Realm!
The entire sky seemed to darken at that moment, like a prelude to a night procession of demons!

"Hmph, everyone says you're lucky, but if we cultivators blindly believe in luck, then we might as well not cultivate at all and just go home and wait for opportunities to fall from the sky!"

Bai Xiaochun, remember this: we cultivators will never fear... fight, fight, fight!

Ghost Fang roared with all his might, but for some reason, his voice gradually became lower and lower and he began to stutter.

The previously dim sky suddenly brightened, and a scorching heat rose continuously. A fireball the size of a mountain descended from the sky.

Ghost Fang could clearly feel that the fireball was firmly locked onto him, and he felt that he had no way to dodge it!
Bai Xiaochun seemed oblivious to this scene, and instead looked at Guiya with a moved expression: "Alright, since you have such ambition, then I will fight you fair and square."

Guiya fell silent, and all the disciples of Lingxi Sect also fell silent, looking up at the fireball in the sky that was as big as a mountain. You call this a fair fight?!

The next moment, Ghost Fang's eyes blazed with crimson light, his face contorted into a ferocious expression, and his hands clenched tightly, unleashing the strongest power he had ever possessed in his life.

"I surrender, Bai Jiao, spare my life!"

After saying this, two clear tears streamed from Ghost Fang's eyes. He had wanted to become famous overnight, but instead he became a clown. He hated it.

Bai Xiaochun calmly lifted his foot back up again, terrified. The other party had seemed so fierce just now, but he hadn't expected it to be an admission of defeat.

As Guiya conceded defeat, the fireball in the sky scattered in all directions, turning into countless starlight points. Its original fiery intensity vanished completely, leaving only a magnificent display of fireworks.

As if celebrating Bai Xiaochun's victory, the sparks landed on the arena, dissipating their light and heat, turning into black sand and stones, appearing utterly ordinary.

The disciples on the north bank were completely stunned, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Looking at Bai Xiaochun on the stage with his innocent face, they had a thousand feelings in their hearts, which all turned into a single word: "grass".

That's incredibly lucky!

Unconsciously, the North Shore's momentum waned, and even the other North Shore disciples who were about to fight felt apprehensive.

"Hmph, Bai Xiaochun has already advanced. What you need to do is defeat your next opponent!"

The North Shore Sect Leader's words carried a powerful force, which revived the hearts of the North Shore disciples.

Gradually, the disciples on the North Shore became more certain that no matter how powerful Bai Xiaochun was, the rest of the disciples on the North Shore were nothing but clay chickens and earthen dogs!

Suddenly, a figure emerged from the crowd on the north bank. He was dressed in the same black robes, only his yellow eyes were visible. It was Gongsun Yun, one of the five great prodigies of the north bank! "South bank disciples, come and fight!"

Gongsun Yun suddenly spoke, his fighting spirit boundless. A disciple from the south bank stepped forward with a stiff upper lip, clearly believing that his strength was inferior to Gongsun Yun's.

As soon as the disciple appeared, countless Gu worms flew out from Gongsun Yun's sleeves, a truly terrifying sight.

"I surrender!"

The disciple from the south bank immediately said that just one glance at the swarms of Gu worms made him feel cold; what was the point of fighting them?

Gongsun Yun stood proudly, then with a flick of his sleeve, countless Gu worms were collected into his sleeve before he swaggered away.

At this moment, the disciples on the north bank cheered, their morale clearly soaring.

The third person to take the stage was a slightly overweight, short young man who had a bright smile but gave off an extremely dangerous feeling.

It turned out to be yet another rising star from the North Shore—Xu Song!
Xu Song was born with a divine body, and his mastery of ferocious beasts was unparalleled. He could even control five ferocious beasts at the same time, making them incredibly powerful.

On the south bank, Lu Tianlei took the lead. He was no longer arrogant, knowing that Xu Song was a formidable opponent.

"Come and fight!"

Lu Tianlei roared, and thunder roared. The area within a radius of ten zhang had been transformed into a pool of thunder. His body suddenly rushed out, carrying boundless thunder to crush Xu Song.

Xu Song looked wary and immediately retreated, his hand flashing as a crack appeared above his head. With a loud bang, a ferocious beast resembling a giant whale appeared and blocked Lü Tianlei's path.

Furthermore, three more ferocious beasts manifested, each with a grotesque appearance, and attacked Lü Tianlei in a coordinated manner. For a moment, Lü Tianlei felt as if he were trapped in a quagmire, unable to extricate himself.

In the end, he could only be worn down and killed by Xu Song.

Aside from the match with Bai Xiaochun, the North Shore had won two consecutive games, leaving the South Shore disciples speechless, realizing that their side was actually no match for the North Shore in terms of raw strength.

"South Bank, what a joke. Besides Bai Xiaochun, what else do you have to offer?"

"Indeed, it is my North Shore who is in charge of the Lingxi Sect!"

The disciples on the south bank remained silent, having nothing to say.

Soon, another disciple from the North Bank stepped forward; it was Shangguan Wan'er, one of the five great prodigies of the North Bank.

Her opponent was Qi Yu.

Qi Yu looked at the imposing Shangguan Wan'er and knew he was no match for her, but he was unwilling to admit defeat.

His eyes darted around and around, finally settling on Bai Xiaochun. He immediately exclaimed with delight, "Bai Xiaochun, could you give your disciple a pre-match blessing?"

Bai Xiaochun was taken aback at first, but then muttered, "You always want to take shortcuts, but let me tell you beforehand, I don't know if it will work."

"We have to give it a try. Besides, whether it works or not, just hearing Bai Tianjiao's blessing to me fills me with gratitude."

Bai Xiaochun looked at Qi Yu with satisfaction; he liked people who knew how to talk.

"Alright, go ahead then. I wish you good luck and a successful start."

Bai Xiaochun and Qi Yu's actions naturally caught the attention of everyone present.

Zheng Yuandong immediately panicked. Luck could be contagious? If that were the case…
The disciples on the north bank all showed expressions of surprise and uncertainty, and even Shangguan Wan'er went from being indifferent at first to taking it more seriously.

"Game start!"

Bai Xiaochun's blessing made Shangguan Wan'er very uneasy, so she did not intend to give her opponent a chance and wanted to finish the battle quickly.

With a wave of her hand, a seven-colored phoenix beside her exhaled a cloud of seven-colored mist, which enveloped Qi Yu.

Qi Yu was unable to dodge in time and was hit in the face by the seven-colored mist. He was stunned and stood still.

Immediately, the disciples on the north bank, along with Shangguan Wan'er, all breathed a sigh of relief.

The disciples on the south bank sighed regretfully, "So it really isn't working?"
Without further ado, Shangguan Wan'er immediately used her magic to attack Qi Yu. However, before she could, a gentle breeze blew by, seemingly with magical power, and blew away the seven-colored mist.

At the same time, it started to rain. Coincidentally, it rained only on Qi Yu's head, and nowhere else. Under the influence of the gentle breeze and rain, Qi Yu was startled and woke up.

He couldn't help but show a look of surprise; it turned out that Bai Xiaochun's blessing was so powerful!

Shangguan Wan'er was also stunned, and a sense of unease rose in her heart. Then, when she saw the seven-colored mist exhaled by her phoenix enveloping her, her expression changed immediately. She pointed with her right hand, and a chilling aura spread out, freezing the seven-colored mist.

Then, he quickly formed hand seals, and a large number of ice blades condensed around him, forming a vortex that shot towards Qi Yu with a whoosh.

Feeling the sharpness of the ice blade, Qi Yu's expression changed drastically. He then used his movement technique to dodge, but his strength was far inferior to that of a prodigy like Shangguan Wan'er.

Before he knew it, an ice blade grazed his bald head, and another grazed his crotch, giving him a real chill down there.

For a moment, Qi Yu was in a state of panic, and his steps became unsteady. Yet, he managed to dodge the ice blades at the crucial moment. The ice blades would always graz his skin, but they would not cause any injury.

Shangguan Wan'er also realized Qi Yu's strange luck. She gritted her teeth, let out a scream, and a blood-red ice flower appeared between her eyebrows. The power of heaven and earth surged wildly.

"It's Senior Sister Gongsun's Blood Ice Flower! This Blood Ice Flower can track automatically, Qi Yu is doomed!"

Qi Yu panicked as well, feeling the deadly threat of the Blood Ice Flower. Just as he was about to admit defeat, a wall of fire suddenly rose up. It was the black sand and gravel that had been scattered on the battle platform after Bai Xiaochun and Gui Ya's battle!

For some reason, they seemed to be stimulated by spiritual energy, and their light and heat rekindled, which coincidentally blocked Gongsun Wan'er's strongest attack.

Moreover, the flames did not diminish, spreading across the field. This intense heat was deadly to a cultivator like Shangguan Wan'er who was proficient in ice magic.

Qi Yu immediately revealed a sinister smile, and used various fire magic techniques to attack Shangguan Wan'er. As the strength of the attack diminished, Shangguan Wan'er was forced to retreat repeatedly under the attack of Qi Yu, who was weaker than her, and was eventually knocked off the stage.

Instantly, the entire room fell silent.

Then, one by one, the disciples from the South Bank silently approached Bai Xiaochun and bowed, saying, "Please, Bai Xiaochun, bless us!"

Upon seeing this, the disciples on the north bank turned pale.

The other side has already opened fire, what's the point of fighting now?
Where is the fairness?!
