382 Xiaoyou VS Qin Kui (1/2)

The afternoon battle was much more crowded than the morning battle had been. After all, it was a battle among the top ten strongest candidates from the capital's martial arts scene.

”Girl, don't push yourself too hard. Just do your best.” Huo Changxing looked at Qin Xiaoyou and smiled.

It had already surprised him that she had been able to place among the top ten positions. He understood this girl's thoughts and intentions too well.

In reality, him bringing a normal woman like Wang Huiru home had garnered a lot of doubt from the people of the clan. In fact, some of them had already voiced their opposition.

Now that this girl had achieved such an impressive result, it was enough to make quite a number of those same people shut their mouths. After all, among the youth of the Huo Clan, nobody could compare to this girl anymore. If she could continue to grow and progress, she would definitely have an exceptional future and nobody would dare to look down on them anymore.

”No, my aim is to place among the top three positions. Even if I am unable to achieve this, I still have to work towards that goal,” Qin Xiaoyou said with a firm gaze.

After all, only with high goals could one achieve greater heights. As such, she hoped that she would be able to fight her way to one of the top three positions. Only then would she have the confidence to follow in Mo Wen's footsteps.

Although the gap between them was very large, this was just the beginning. However, if she sat back and did nothing, she would surely not improve.

”You, girl, are already more powerful than all of them because you have only trained for such a short period of time. Moreover, you are the youngest! In a couple of years, you will have left them far behind!” Huo Changxing smiled and said.

With Qin Xiaoyou's natural talent, she should not be restricted to this secluded corner of the world, as there was not much value in that. However, Qin Xiaoyou was still relatively young at the moment and she had not trained for long. So, trying to fight for one of the top three positions was not an easy task.

In fact, the chances of her success were very slim. If she was a little lucky and managed to avoid meeting those two youths with the Qi Nucleation realm, there was still a possibility. But, if she was matched against them during the semi-finals, it was very possible that she would be eliminated.

”I just want to do the things well. That way, I will be able to have a better future.” Qin Xiaoyou was determined.

She just wanted to give it her all and fight her way forward. No matter how far she went, she would give it her all. Only then would she be able to go the distance and close the gap between her and her opponents!

In reality, Qin Xiaoyou's aim was not just to get into the top three, but rather to win the title! She just did not vocalize it. She knew that the Bi Clan and the Qin Clan had each produced a talented youth with the Qi Nucleation realm, both of whom would be tough to defeat.

However, Mo Wen had previously defeated a master with the Qi Nucleation realm when he was only of the Sea of Qi realm. So, she had to try her best to achieve the things that he had been able to accomplish. Only then could she prove that her dreams could become reality.

”Just remember that your safety comes first. If you can't handle it anymore, please do not push yourself further.” Huo Changxing felt helpless.

This girl's personality was just so stubborn! Normally, she did not appear to be such a competitive person. However, when she became serious, her drive was really unstoppable!

Qin Xiaoyou nodded her head vigorously. Her small hands were gripped tightly and her gaze drifted over to Mo Wen, who was seated nearby.

All of her efforts had gone to proving herself to this man. In the past, she had not thought of herself as being inferior to Mo Wen, since her results had always been higher than his.

However, she also now knew that they were from two completely different worlds. Hence, whatever she deemed to be outstanding did not actually mean anything to him.

As such, it was impossible for two people from completely different worlds to end up together. However, she was not one to give up so easily. Even though she was devoid of any merits in the past, she was determined that she would be able to prove herself in the future.

”Give it your best shot! I believe in you.” Mo Wen smiled and nodded.

Previously, when he had trained this girl, he did not have many expectations. He had just hoped that she would have some self-defence abilities, so that he could be more at ease about her well-being.

But now, he truly believed that this girl's achievements in the future would be rather exceptional. It was even possible that she might one day surpass him.

The capital's ancient martial arts scene was merely a small stage. In fact, it was just a contest between a few aristocratic families of the martial arts world. Strictly speaking, it only involved about half of the ancient martial arts population.

As such, it should be a piece of cake for Qin Xiaoyou to attain one of the top three positions with her current cultivation and knowledge of the ranked martial arts. Thus, it should not be too difficult for her to defeat those impulsive ancient martial art practitioners with the Qi Nucleation realm.

”Mm!” Qin Xiaoyou nodded her head vigorously and a smile soon spread across her face. After all, nothing was more blissful than hearing the affirmation of someone she liked!
