Mortal: Joining the Star Palace at the Start

Tianyou Island was very noisy, with countless cultivators discussing something.

"Brother Qing, do you think Ji Qing will come? So much time has passed, and he still hasn't shown up. Could it be that he's backed down from the fight?"

Upon hearing this, Qinghuai pondered for a few moments, then shook his head and said:

I don't know either.

Logically speaking, since both of these guys have a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator above them, their resources and cultivation techniques should be top-tier.

Now that Lin Xuanye is a body cultivator, I think it's going to be difficult for Ji Qing to win.

After saying that, Qinghuai's eyes narrowed slightly, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

Why did this competition attract so many cultivators? To put it bluntly, it was simply a way to humiliate the Grand Elder.

If Ji Qing wins, that's fine, but if Ji Qing loses, the Grand Elder will be affected to some extent in the future.

They will say later that Jin Kui, as the Grand Elder, seems to be a bit unworthy of the title. How could a disciple trained at the same level be so weak?

In my opinion, you should step down from the position of Grand Elder.

"Brother Qing, how about you take a gamble?"

Upon hearing this, Qinghuai immediately snapped out of her daze and said with a half-smile:

"What are we betting on?"

Seeing Qinghuai's expression, Zhang Ye rolled his eyes at her and whispered:

"Of course it's gambling on spirit stones. Brother Qing, you may not know this, but the Liu family has already opened a gambling den."

Ji Qing's odds have now reached 3 to 1.

Zhang Ye raised an eyebrow, a mischievous grin on his face:

"How about it? Want to take a gamble?"

If we win this bet, we'll really make a fortune.

Upon hearing this, Qinghuai stroked his chin and asked:

"Whose bet are you betting on?"

"Me? Of course I spent three thousand spirit stones betting on Lin Xuanye."

"Betting on Lin Xuanye? That's certainly interesting. Aren't you afraid you'll lose everything this time?"

"Don't be afraid of him. With Lin Xuanye's strength, there are really few people who can match him at the same level, let alone the fact that the other party is a body cultivator."

Zhang Ye's expression remained calm, showing an indifferent demeanor.

"If I'm unlucky and lose the bet, I can only accept my fate. Anyway, I don't need those few coins."

Qinghuai suddenly realized and nodded, saying:

"Alright, since you've put it that way, I'll bet on Ji Qing."

Let me see who wins between us!

Upon hearing Qinghuai's words, Zhang Ye immediately grinned mischievously:

"Alright, alright, since you dare to bet on Ji Qing, then we'll see."

After saying that, Zhang Ye crossed his arms and watched quietly without making a sound.

About two hours passed, and just when everyone thought Ji Qing would back down, a sound of wind breaking suddenly came from afar.

Hearing the commotion, everyone immediately turned to look. When they saw who it was, they exclaimed in surprise:

"Ji Qing actually came? Looks like this is going to be interesting."

Ji Qing piloted the flying shuttle at an incredible speed. After flying for only five or six breaths, he quickly arrived at Tianyou Island and soon stopped opposite Lin Xuanye.

"You're Ji Qing?"

Lin Xuanye said in a calm tone. After saying this, he glanced at Ji Qing and then slowly stood up.

"My grandfather told me not to harm you, so you'd better be sensible and admit defeat sooner rather than later. It'll be better for everyone."

"Heh, judging by your expression, you've got me cornered, huh?"

After Ji Qing finished speaking, he immediately sneered:

"I also have a suggestion. How about this: if you admit defeat and leave sooner, I'll pretend this duel never happened. What do you think of this suggestion?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuanye's expression suddenly turned cold:

"Ridiculous, it seems there's nothing left for us to say to each other."

"If that's the case, then let's make our move."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xuanye immediately took out a silver spear from his storage bag and charged towards Ji Qing.

"die!"

With that cold shout, Lin Xuanye immediately slammed his spear down towards Ji Qing.

Lin Xuanye's attack was deadly, but Ji Qing clearly missed. The Swiftness Talisman under Ji Qing's feet suddenly exerted its power, and Ji Qing dodged the attack.

As Ji Qing dodged, he also threw out a stack of talismans, which flew rapidly towards Lin Xuanye with tremendous force.

"You son of a bitch."

Lin Xuanye immediately burst into a tirade, "What kind of good person would use a stack of talismans? What a spendthrift!"

This stack of talismans must be worth at least three to five hundred spirit stones, right?

Lin Xuanye dared not confront him head-on, and his figure immediately retreated rapidly. After he dodged Ji Qing's attack, a thunderous explosion suddenly rang out, and towering flames shot into the sky, forcing back layers of clouds and mist.

"Wow, Ji Qing is really rich. He can even use talismans like this. This is truly an eye-opener for Xiao Dao La Pi Shi."

"Haha, brother's fighting style is really interesting."

At this moment, on a certain mountaintop, Ling Yuling, dressed in white, covered her mouth and laughed.

She didn't know when it started, but the worries in her heart suddenly disappeared.

"Ji Qing, right? I'll remember you for throwing a stack of talismans at me. We'll see about this in the future."

Upon hearing this, Ji Qing, seeing Lin Xuanye's disheveled appearance, said jokingly:

"What? Are you planning to admit defeat?"

"Bullshit! You want me to admit defeat? In my next life!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuanye used some secret technique, and his entire body suddenly flashed with golden light. With a "rip," his shirt suddenly tore apart, revealing his strong and powerful muscles.

"Ji Qing, you were able to force me to use the Dragon Elephant Profound Technique. Even if you lose, you can still be proud."

As Lin Xuanye spoke, he immediately pulled out a spear from the ground and charged towards Ji Qing.

Upon seeing this, Ji Qing muttered to himself that it was an idiot.

He's still too young.

Who's a good person who unleashes their ultimate move right from the start?

It seems the outcome of this battle is already clear.

Now that Lin Xuanye has gone all out, he should get serious too.

Now that Lin Xuanye is using his secret technique, there might be a time limit.

As long as he waits for the right time, he will undoubtedly win this battle.

Ji Qing's idea was good, but would Lin Xuanye, after unleashing his secret technique, give him such an opportunity?

A flash of golden light appeared in his eyes, and with a roar, he thrust his spear toward Ji Qing.

Faced with this unavoidable attack, Ji Qing's expression changed slightly, but he remained calm and composed.

Ji Qing first summoned the Cold Dew Shield to block in front of him, then made hand seals and slashed his longsword at Lin Xuanye.

Faced with Ji Qing's counterattack, Lin Xuanye was secretly alarmed for a moment and quickly dodged.

After he dodged the attack, just as he was about to retaliate, he saw a gray mirror floating in front of Ji Qing.

"What does this guy want to do?"

Lin Xuanye murmured, a bad feeling suddenly rising in his mind.
