Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 209 Fried Fish
"Are you the only ones hogging the space and refusing to give it up?"

Fang Qiyun strode over directly to Zhang Haoran and Xiang Bai, along with a dozen others.

Despite being outnumbered, her aura far surpassed that of the dozen or so people.

"Fang Qiyun!"

Xiang Bai frowned as he looked at Fang Qiyun, who was approaching aggressively. "You're going too far. We were practicing peacefully, and you're trying to take over the space and kick us out?"

He sneered, "What, you think you're so great just because you managed to get onto the Heavenly Ranking? You think you can look down on everyone now?"

Zhang Haoran, however, followed Fang Qiyun's gaze to Ji Fuyou behind him, a deep sense of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

After hearing Xiang Bai's words, he immediately added, "You want to spar with Master Ji?"

He emphasized the word "master" in his tone.

The weight of those two words quickly calmed Xiang Bai, who had been frowning in dissatisfaction.

"Ji Fuyou?"

Third on the Heavenly Ranking!
A master-level martial artist and a high-level mental energy user!
Looking across Chuzhou, it stands at the pinnacle.

He's on par with his father!

He naturally wouldn't dare to provoke such a person.

However, being a young man, his emotions were easily expressed, and his eyes inevitably held a hint of gloom.

"Why would the captain need to intervene to deal with you?"

Fang Qiyun looked at the dozen or so people and directly raised his hand: "What's the point of you making things difficult for the training center staff? In the end, hunters should be judged by their strength. You want to take over the training center? Fine! Fight us. If you win, you can continue to use the training center! If you lose, then leave obediently! Don't waste our training time here!"

"A fight?"

Already harboring resentment, Xiang Bai glared at him sharply: "You mean, fight me?! You guys? Master Ji won't even lift a finger?"

"I told you, we don't need our captain to deal with you. The two of us can take on both of your teams!"

Fang Qiyun spoke frankly.

Upon seeing this, Xiangyang couldn't wait to agree.

Zhang Haoran, on the other hand, was well aware of Ji Fuyou's strength and influence.

He had initially thought that only Fang Qiyun wanted to occupy the space, and that their domineering behavior was fine, but Ji Fuyou…

They are definitely not people they can afford to offend.

They won the competition, but offended Ji Fuyou, a promising martial arts master.

We lost, and we lost all face.

It seems to be entirely harmful and without any benefit.

He immediately said, "We were unaware that Master Ji needed to use the venue, and we apologize for any offense we may have caused. We will vacate the venue immediately and leave right away."

As he spoke, he quickly called to his teammates.

"Wait!"

Fang Qiyun said directly, "The time we've wasted so far, plus the time you delayed the staff from cleaning the site by refusing to leave earlier, all these things have wasted an hour or two of our time. And now you think you can just leave with a casual remark? If you can get something out of it, you'll try your best to get it, and if you can't, you can just walk away. There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Haoran's expression turned ugly.

Xiang Bai couldn't help but say, "We're already planning to leave, what more do you want?"

"I've made myself very clear."

Fang Qiyun and Ji Qingqing walked towards the center of the field: "Let's have a match!"

After saying that, she glanced at the two teams, even including their substitutes: "You don't need to come one by one, you can all come at once!"

"Together?"

Seeing that things were unlikely to end well, Zhang Haoran took a deep breath: "Fang Qiyun, are you serious? Master Ji won't make a move, and you two are going to take on both of our teams?"

"You have one minute to prepare. In one minute, we will launch our attack!"

Fang Qiyun gave him an ultimatum.

After hearing this, Zhang Haoran and Xiang Bai exchanged a glance, then looked at Ji Fuyou, who showed no intention of intervening, and their eyes turned cold at the same time.

Their attitude had already been very sincere, and despite their repeated attempts to back down, Fang Qiyun remained aggressive. Even if they retaliated and injured them, Ji Fuyou wouldn't be able to say anything.

Otherwise, it would be considered bullying and oppression.

At that time, the people behind them will stand up for them.

With this thought in mind, the two quickly gathered their team members and surrounded them.

At the same time, Zhang Haoran said with a forced smile, "Since Fang Qiyun and this young lady want us to help them spar and test their skills, we naturally cannot refuse out of respect for Master Ji. Please forgive us if we offend them."

Fang Qiyun unfastened the long spear from his body: "Come!"

Ji Qingqing was also fully prepared, holding the Zhenhai Spear that Ji Fuyou had given him.

However, compared to Fang Qiyun, her expression was very tense.

This scene, witnessed by the experienced Zhang Haoran, made them instantly understand the difference in strength between the two.

No words are needed.

As Zhang Haoran gave a signal to his team and Xiang Yang, the next moment, 11 people from both teams rushed out at the same time, completely disregarding the idea of ​​outnumbering the enemy.

And seeing so many people rushing forward...

"Leave those high-level martial artists to me!"

As Fang Qiyun spoke, he thrust his spear forward, becoming the first to attack Ren Tianxing, Xiang Yang, and the others.

Although she didn't know how Ren Tianxing, Yuan Feibai, and the others had offended Ji Fuyou, but...

Since Ji Fuyou couldn't take action himself, she would gladly step in and give them a good beating to vent Ji Fuyou's anger.

With this thought in mind, the spear in her hand moved like a dragon swimming in the sea, carrying a sharp whistling sound and fierce energy that shattered the air, and fiercely thrust towards Xiang Bai.

With a physique stat of 24.2, Xiang Bai only had time to see a flash of white light before immediately drawing his sword in front of him.

The next moment, a force far exceeding his ability to resist erupted from the sword blocking his body.

Penetrating forcefully.

Xiang Bai couldn't hold onto the battle sword at all. As his tiger's mouth split open and blood splattered, the S-grade battle sword, which his father had rewarded him with after he had cultivated his inner strength and obtained the senior martial artist title, flew out of control and shot to the side.

"Such power!?" As the treasured sword slipped from his hand, the grandmaster's son's eyes widened in shock, as he watched helplessly as the thrusting spear transformed into a deflection...

"Oh!"

The spear, propelled by Hunyuan, slammed into his shoulder with the force of a thunderbolt, sending him flying sideways in an instant.

The sound of bones shattering echoed throughout the venue.

One shot!
In just one exchange, this powerful high-level martial artist was sent flying by a single spear thrust!
It was even because Fang Qiyun showed mercy.

Otherwise, this shot could have pierced his chest, shattered his heart and organs, and ended his life.

especially……

After being thrown towards Bai, the shot continued its relentless barrage towards Ren Tianxing without any pause.

Ren Tianxing immediately brandished his sword, attempting to deflect Fang Qiyun's spear tip.

However, as Fang Qiyun spun his spear repeatedly, sparks flew, and Ren Tianxing's battle blade was also knocked away. The cold spear tip, with its soul-chilling sharpness, pierced through this high-level martial artist who had once put considerable pressure on Ji Fuyou.

This shot was not intended to kill; it merely pierced Ren Tianxing's body without unleashing any force to shatter his internal organs through a cavity effect.

But as Fang Qiyun drew his gun, crimson blood still splattered across the sky, making Ren Tianxing realize for the first time how close death was to him.

On the other side, Zhang Haoran also faced off against Ji Qingqing.

Since Ji Qingqing was not well-known, Zhang Haoran immediately unleashed a mysterious refining technique.

result……

No surprises.

The secret technique of suppressing the 20-minute mental energy against the 22-minute mental energy backfired, causing the user to feel dizzy and disoriented.

Furthermore, Ji Qingqing's grasp of her own strength wasn't particularly accurate, so she chose to go all out against these people, truly like a tiger entering a pack of wolves.

If it weren't for a martial artist risking his life to save Zhang Haoran, this young master of the Zhang family would have been shot through the body in the blink of an eye.

Even so, against an 11-person team consisting of 3 high-level martial artists, 3 high-level mental energy users, and 5 high-level martial artists, the two individuals with a physique exceeding 30 and a spirit exceeding 22 still displayed an overwhelming advantage.

Wherever the spear pointed, none could stop it.

Anyone who bumps into them will suffer serious injury.

Ji Fuyou did not stop him from doing so.

Firstly, the two of them were careful with their actions.

With the presence of a white physique source crystal, even minor injuries are not incurable; as long as one is not dead, they can be saved.

Secondly...

Cultivation is not about treating people to a meal.

If a life-or-death duel between high-level cultivators were to take place in a densely populated village or town, the shockwaves from their rampage would be enough to crush a house into dust, leaving no chance of survival for anyone living inside, whether human or even a dog.

Moreover, as the fog closes in, such "accidents" will only increase in the future.

Therefore, Fang Qiyun, Ji Qingqing, Zhang Haoran, Xiang Bai, and others all need to have a direct understanding of the destructive power of high-level cultivators.

Fang Qiyun and Ji Qingqing, who are currently fighting them, are still holding back and not killing them. But if they were facing a master-level monster...

They don't even have the right to be injured.

He's doing this for their own good.

……

The battle lasted less than a minute from start to finish.

The two squads, consisting of 11 main members, had all fallen to the ground, screaming in agony.

Several other reserve personnel stood aside, not even daring to intervene, their faces ashen.

"weak!"

Fang Qiyun stood with his spear drawn and uttered the word without hesitation.

Although she knew that not long ago she was no better than these people, and not much stronger.

but now……

Speaking on behalf of Ji Fuyou and as a member of Ji Fuyou's team, she was naturally unsparing in her words.

Zhang Haoran and Xiang Bai were both pale-faced, but having suffered a crushing defeat, they dared not utter a single word of rebuttal.

Especially Xiang Bai, who was so arrogant just moments ago...

"Master level! Fang Qiyun...you...you've become a master-level martial artist!?"

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Why not?"

Fang Qiyun said.

"I……"

Xiang Bai's greatest source of confidence comes from his father, Xiang Dongliu, a master-level martial artist.

As it turned out, among the people in front of them, it was one thing that Ji Fuyou was a master-level martial artist, but Fang Qiyun had also raised his physique to the master level, reaching the same level as his father.

even……

The other woman possessed equally astonishing strength.

I estimate he's not far from being a master, if not a master.

In an instant, Xiang Bai's face turned ashen.

"We were ignorant and offended you. We apologize to Miss Fang and this lady again."

Zhang Haoran bowed with a bitter expression.

Fang Qiyun glanced at Ji Fuyou.

Ji Fuyou showed no intention of continuing to use explosives to catch fish in the pond, and waved his hand, saying, "You can go now."

Immediately, Zhang Haoran, Xiang Bai, and the others felt as if they had been granted a pardon. After a sigh of relief, they quickly helped each other away from the scene.
