Chapter 207: Chapter 176: Winning with One Move 1

“Old man, are you blind?!”
An indignant Shang YaoYao was unable to hold back her swearing.
Clearly, Luo Qingchen had the absolute advantage, so how did Bai Yingwu end up winning?
“Impudent child!”
The Golden Core Elder in charge of the event, upon hearing Shang YaoYao’s curse, had his face turn black. He waved his hand and conjured several water bullets, shooting them towards Shang YaoYao.
Although it was just the most common Water Bullet Skill, its attacking power was nothing weak, but comparable to a tier six proficiency level skill.
Shang YaoYao had just advanced to the Foundation Establishment Stage, she completely couldn’t withstand the attack, and didn’t even have enough time to react.
Xu Mu had just taken to the stage at this moment, preparing to examine Luo Qingchen’s injuries and didn’t even have the time to help.
Needless to say, by the time Li Heng reacted, the water bullets had already landed in front of his eyes.
Hum!
Luckily, the defensive magic artifact passed down in Shang YaoYao’s family activated in time, instigating a light screen, and blocked the water bullets. Boom! Boom!
“Ah!”
Shang YaoYao let out a cry of surprise, being thrown several feet away under the great impact, knocking over several disciples consecutively.
Upon recovering, Li Heng staggered forward to check on her.
“This is just a lesson for you. If it happens again, you’ll be thrown into confinement!”
Looking at the embarrassing state of Shang YaoYao, the elder snorted coldly. Obviously, he recognized Shang YaoYao and knew that she had a defensive artifact on her, hence he took a harsh on her.
After all, he was a Golden Core Stage powerhouse, and he couldn’t tolerate such contempt from a junior.
Even the head of the Shang family had to act politely in front of him.
“Was I wrong?! This is clearly a distortion of truth!”
Shang YaoYao, not accepting the defeat, pushed away the supportive Li Heng and vehemently said.
The disciples who were watching all turned their heads towards the elder who had made the judgement, intending to see how he would respond.
The majority of the disciples present were neutral, they wouldn’t distort the truth nor would they blindly support Bai Yingwu.
Besides, a single elder at the Golden Core Stage couldn’t overturn the truth in Tianhe Sect.
If there wasn’t a reasonable explanation, this matter wouldn’t be ignored so easily.
“Distortion of truth? Humph! I haven’t sunk so low as to bully a junior. Her bloodline was not naturally obtained, but transplanted later. Besides, it’s still sealed with some of the Golden Core Stage’s power. What she used just now was not her own power. There’s nothing wrong with my judgement that she lost!” said the presiding elder.
“How is that possible?!!”
Shang YaoYao was momentarily unable to accept this, and stood there stunned.
Li Heng lowered his head slightly, balled his fists tightly, and did not dare to maintain eye contact with anyone.
“What? Transplanted bloodline? There are actually people willing to do such an exhausting, thankless task!”
“I was saying! How could a place like Lonely Sword Peak possibly have disciples with special bloodlines!”
“Lonely Sword Peak is really famous now, the Peak Master is a drunkard, and the disciples are all pedaling crooked paths!”
The crowd couldn’t help mocking and jeering after knowing that Luo Qingchen used a transplanted bloodline.
This sort of thing was hardly honorable. Shang YaoYao’s face was turning green and then red, she didn’t know how to counter.
Xu Mu on the stage merely wrinkled his brows and didn’t have much of a reaction. He helped Luo Qingchen up, took out a healing pill from his storage bag and gave it to her. Then he used his spiritual power to inspect her injuries. Only after confirming that she was in a coma from fatigue did he carry her down from the stage.
You take Sister Luo to the Medicine Hall for a check-up first, I will find you both after my competition!”
Xu Mu handed Luo Qingchen over to Shang YaoYao and asked Li Heng to leave with them, leaving him alone as the only disciple of Lonely Sword Peak on the stage.
Influenced by this event, the people around them unconsciously distanced themselves from him.
Qi Yue initially wanted to go over to console him a bit, but was stopped by his own brothers and thus had to give up.
Soon, it was Xu Mu’s turn to take the stage.
As the only disciple of the Lonely Sword Peak, coupled with Luo Qingchen’s infringement, Xu Mu had gained almost everyone’s attention.
Xu Mu even vaguely felt that many people were also watching him in secret, probably the high-ranking members of the sect or strong powerhouses invited to watch the ceremony.
Xu Mu didn’t care about these gazes, after all, it was just a clone, even if it was destroyed, it wouldn’t matter.
