I'm here in the martial arts world just to find love.

Although Qin Shaoling was given the nickname "Ghost Spear" by some busybody people in the martial arts world, his spear skills were not strange or tricky at all; on the contrary, they were exceptionally domineering and fierce.

This move, "Golden Rooster Nodding Randomly," made Qin Fang's gaze sharpen, and he immediately drew his sword and retreated.

The spear broke free, and before Qin Shaoling could use his next move, Qin Fang had already slashed down with his sword, the sword energy crisscrossing and as powerful as thunder.

This Ghost Blade Qin Fang's swordsmanship also follows a fierce and domineering style!

A flash of light, leaving countless afterimages, slashed down towards Qin Shaoling.

Without hesitation, Qin Shaoling raised his spear to block. If this had happened in the past, the white waxwood spear in his hand would have been broken if it had landed squarely on him.

However, the reason why martial artists are so powerful lies in their use of martial arts internal energy.

When the body's internal energy adheres to the weapon, the weapon will remain unbroken as long as the internal energy continues to flow.

Qin Shaoling was clearly very confident in his martial arts internal energy.

"clang!"

Swords and spears clashed, sparks flew.

Both of them were forced back several steps by this terrifying force.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Chao knew that the outcome of this battle was already decided.

  

as predicted.

The next moment, Qin Shaoling used a "Dragon Tail Sweep" move, bending the spear shaft into a bow and striking Qin Fang hard in the waist. The immense force sent Qin Fang, who had no time to dodge, flying off the stage.

Qin Fang's swordsmanship was fierce, but his martial arts true energy was not as profound as Qin Shaoling's. Therefore, no matter how exquisite his swordsmanship was, it was ultimately useless.

"Thank you for your concession."

Qin Shaoling stood on the arena, holding his gun, and spoke calmly.

Blood trickled from the corner of Qin Fang's mouth as he fell off the stage. He took a deep look at Qin Shaoling on the stage before turning and leaving.

Having won his first battle, Qin Shaoling lowered his gaze under the watchful eyes of the crowd, awaiting the next challenger to take the stage.

……

As evening fell, Qin Shaoling stepped down from the arena, feeling weary, and followed Jiang Chao to the Moon Goddess Palace's encampment.

In this competition, he won nine consecutive matches after Qin Fang of Lanzhou, but finally lost to a woman who was unarmed.

The woman came from Jizhao Nunnery, one of the seven great sects. She was an ordinary-looking young nun, but she had extremely high cultivation in the sect at a young age.

Faced with Qin Shaoling's aggressive and sweeping attacks, the unarmed nun remained calm and composed. She used a combination of softness and gentleness to overcome hardness, neutralizing Qin Shaoling's attacks one by one. Finally, she patted Qin Shaoling's chest with her fair hand, causing him to stagger back several steps and fall off the stage in defeat.

"That little nun's moves... are quite strange!"

On the way to the Moon Goddess Palace camp, Qin Shaoling, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't help but speak:

"When I faced her, I felt absolutely no desire to fight. It was as if I were facing not an enemy, but..."

Jiang Chao had already noticed that the young nun was unusual. After all, she was a disciple of the Xuanmen sect. If she didn't have some cultivation and skill, how could she participate in this martial arts tournament?

That plain-looking nun was only ordinary in appearance; what she had behind her was anything but ordinary. The palm technique she used was very likely one of the Xuanmen's ultimate techniques, the Jade Tendon Circling Palm.

Legend has it that once this ultimate skill is mastered, it can completely neutralize the martial arts energy used by an opponent, and even allow one to compete with ordinary martial arts masters.

The reason why Jizhao Nunnery became famous in the martial arts world and ranked among the top sects was because of its unique Xuanmen palm technique.

It takes a completely opposite approach to the traditional Buddhist temple's Great Compassion Palm, Prajna Palm, and Vajra Fist.

Legend has it that to master this palm technique, one needs to peel off 300 catties of silkworm silk each time, accumulating this process day after day until the palm technique is perfected, allowing one to dissipate the opponent's martial arts true energy from its cocoon and render it invisible.

The opponent clearly had no intention of harming Qin Shaoling; otherwise, Qin Shaoling would have suffered far more than just falling off the stage. The Jade Tendon Thread Palm technique not only extracts martial arts true energy but also the life force within the body.

In other words, the nun was a nun with a compassionate heart and showed mercy; otherwise, Qin Shaoling would have inevitably suffered serious injuries... literally serious injuries.

"Don't even think about it. That's the famous Jade Tendon Silk Palm. The fact that you were able to land on the stage unscathed is already a sign of mercy from your opponent. Otherwise, you would have been like those martial artists you knocked off the stage earlier, needing several days to heal."

Jiang Chao said with a smile.

He did not take the stage today because he did not find any opponents who interested him.

Although those martial arts practitioners who dare to step onto the stage under the spotlight are all young people who have achieved fame, that is only in comparison to ordinary martial arts practitioners.

Jiang Chao spent the whole afternoon looking, but he couldn't find any real masters who could pique his interest. Either the moves they used were easy for him to see through, or they were like that little nun from Jizhao Nunnery, with unique skills that posed no threat to him.

His superhuman strength allowed him to completely ignore the opponent's mysterious martial art, the Jade Tendon Entwining Palm, achieving the effect of breaking all laws with force.

After hearing Jiang Chao's words, Qin Shaoling was stunned for a moment, then seemed to be deep in thought and stopped talking.

Upon returning to their camp, neither Jiang Yunyao nor the two elders were there. According to the disciples of the Moon Goddess Palace, they had gone to score the martial artists who participated in the arena competition that day, along with people from other sects.

Jiang Chao wasn't particularly interested in this either, and instead found Su E and the others.

Su E treated six martial arts practitioners today, with Lu Jing assisting her. The reputation of Huichuntang has already spread in this small area.

As for the heroine Chu...

The heroine Chu also took to the stage today, but she only won one match.

The main problem was that Lady Chu was unlucky; she was skilled in hidden weapons and light-footed skills, not close combat.

The two opponents she encountered were both close-combat experts, both sixth-rank martial artists. Chu's hidden weapons were mostly used to kill people, and their power would be greatly reduced if they were used to spar with others.

Fortunately, she wasn't injured. Losing is losing, it's not a big deal.

After the incident with the dragon, Lady Chu had lost much interest in showing off at the martial arts tournament, and winning or losing was no longer important to her.

What she truly wanted to be was not an ordinary chivalrous person, but a female knight-errant who could change the fate of the world.

Knowing that a great calamity was imminent and that demons and monsters from legends would appear and wreak havoc on the world, the heroine Chu had already secretly made up her mind about her future direction in the martial arts world.

After greeting the others, Jiang Chao continued walking deeper into the camp.

The woman in red, Li Muqing, was currently practicing her martial arts and comprehending the Dao in a secluded tent.

Since that day when they had a martial arts sparring session underwater, a sparring session known only to the two of them, Li Muqing has stayed at the Moon Goddess Palace.

Upon learning the other party's identity, the elder sister Jiang Yunyao was incredibly enthusiastic and specifically ordered the other Moon Goddess Palace disciples not to disturb her cultivation.

Su E and Lu Jing had no objection to this, but Chu, the female knight, gave Jiang Chao a lot of dirty looks for it, her gaze filled with resentment and dissatisfaction.

Jiang Chao was puzzled by Chu's gaze and didn't know what she was unhappy about.

Although Yao Yao likes someone else, she's also been good to you. You're still not satisfied.

"Miss Li, would you like to...?"

As Jiang Chao lifted the tent flap and entered the tent, he saw Li Muqing, dressed in a brand-new red dress, sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed. Jiang Chao had just opened his mouth when the woman interrupted him halfway through his sentence.

"No need for further explanation."

The woman opened her eyes, glanced at him, and said in a slightly cold and solemn tone:

"Wait for me until half an incense stick has burned. After half an incense stick has burned, I will spar with you in martial arts."

Jiang Chao opened his mouth, but what he really wanted to say was, "I didn't come here specifically to spar with you. I, Jiang Chao, am not that kind of shallow person. Rather..."

Since the other party had spoken first and proposed a martial arts exchange, Jiang Chao naturally wouldn't refuse.
