Fanxue Mountain was not open to the public, thus the huge crowd had to gather below the mountain like a riot.

Being unable to watch the duel was torture for those people, who were keen to learn its outcome. Fortunately, people were not to be underestimated when they were united. They finally found a few people who had permission to enter Fanxue Mountain and were willing to broadcast the duel live!

Mu Ningxue was not purposely trying to hide anything. She was simply not fond of having too many unauthorized personnel in her territory. Therefore, she did not mind those who had permission to enter Fanxue Mountain broadcasting the duel.

A video recorder was unable to capture magic spells; the spells would only end up as white flashes on the screen. However, most people were satisfied with the blurry broadcast. It was not like they understood the complicated spells. They just wanted to know the rough situation, who had the upper hand, who was injured, and who had lost the duel!

Humans could behave very strangely at times. If they were unable to watch a duel, they would be extremely anxious and impatient, and would easily spread rumors and exaggerate the situation. As a result, both Fanxue Mountain and Fanxue City were crowded now. They were all waiting for the result.

“A duel of this level is already getting so much attention? The duel between Mo Fan and Zu Xiangtian is going to be even crazier!” Mu Ningxue pulled the curtain to the side. She was able to see the tiny figures gathered on the mountain path from her room. The crowd of people was densely scattered outside Fanxue Mountain.

“Ningxue, are you ready?” Shao Yu asked, standing beside Mu Ningxue. “That He Yao is pretty strong. Both Bai Hongfei and I couldn’t beat him.”

“I’ll need to change first. I didn’t expect him to come today,” Mu Ningxue replied.

“Mm, should we let him wait for an hour or two first? I can’t stand his arrogance,” Shao Yu said.

“Just give me ten minutes,” Mu Ningxue said before going into her changing room. She had initially planned to meditate in her room today, so she was wearing simple clothes that were not suitable for a duel.

Mu Ningxue believed it was unnecessary to give the man the cold shoulder. There was no point wasting one another’s time after she had accepted the challenge. It was rare to find an opponent like him, too. It was definitely a worthy duel!

Fanxue Mountain had a huge dueling area. It was initially designed for the master of demolition, Mo Fan. Only the high-level duels between Advanced Mages would be held here. After all, activating the defensive barrier cost a fortune.

There were only two ways to the dueling ground. One was from the area designated for Fanxue Mountain’s core members, and the other was from Mo Fan’s house. Mu Ningxue was currently living in Mo Fan’s house. Meanwhile, He Yao was brought to the dueling ground from the other path. Bai Hongfei led him to the venue.

“Why are there only a few people? Are you guys planning to make it private to preserve your reputation?” He Yao looked around and did not see any spectators around, not even the people of Fanxue Mountain.

“It was the same for every other challenger who came to us,” Bai Hongfei answered calmly.

Bai Hongfei still held a grudge against He Yao after losing to him during the Young Adults Contest. He was annoyed by the smug look on He Yao’s face. He brought his hands together after bringing He Yao to the venue. “Make yourself at home!”

Bai Hongfei could not be bothered serving the guy. He simply turned around and left.

He Yao was not too bothered by it all. It was normal for him to wait, since he was currently in someone else’s territory. He did not even mind waiting until sunset, as long as Mu Ningxue did not call off the duel.
