“Smart! How smart! I can’t believe that one can fight like that too…”
“She used Third Young Master’s weapon to attack his own shield. On the other hand, she barely expended her own energy.”
Other than Lou Xiaoxiao’s ingenious strategy, the biggest highlight in this duel was that Lou Xiaoxiao had only used a single move—Falling Flowers!
Even after a landslide victory against Third Young Master, she still had a lot of Essence Martial Power remaining within her. In fact, she had only spent an insignificant amount of her energy.
“She’s a true battle genius. Qingyun City’s Lou Family should not be underestimated,” Gong Sunheng exclaimed.
Master Huo, who was paralyzed from shock, deeply sighed. “Not only is Lou Qianxue weird, but everyone around her is also weird.”
On the battle stage, Third Young Master gradually regained his consciousness. The expression on his burnt face suddenly changed, and he continuously shook his arm. He howled in a hoarse voice, “Antidote… The antidote!”
The people from the Prefectural Governor’s mansion, who were surrounding him, felt anxious and worried. “Third Young Master, is this the antidote for the Venomous Dragon Sword?”
They had found a medicine bottle in Third Young Master’s pocket.
Third Young Master snatched it over, opened the cap with trembling hands, and swallowed it. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.
Then, a vicious and menacing glint shone in his eyes.
The others quickly carried him off the stage.
The people who previously admired him and had said that he was extremely powerful focused their attention on Lou Xiaoxiao and other young cultivators now.
“Since Lou Xiaoxiao defeated Third Young Master, doesn’t it mean… she’s the second strongest person amongst Fengyang prefecture’s young generation?”
“This is too embarrassing.” The young geniuses from Fengyang prefecture, except Hong Qinghe, had been trampled by these young people from a tiny, unknown place. This made them feel upset!
Every person in the crowd naturally turned to Hong Qinghe.
Hong Qinghe was also quite interested in Lou Xiaoxiao. However, when faced with all the different voices in the crowd, he shook his head and yelled, “No, you’re wrong! I think that it’s not embarrassing to be defeated by Miss Xiaoxiao. After all, Miss Xiaoxiao’s surname is Lou, and she’s part of the Prefectural Governor’s mansion. How can she be considered an outsider?”
After speaking, he stood up and looked at Lou Xiaoxiao.
“I’m quite eager now that there’s a new player in Fengyang prefecture. I’d like to have a small fight. Miss Xiaoxiao, are you willing?”
Was the champion of last year’s Fenghua Banquet challenging her to a fight?
Lou Xiaoxiao’s expression became infused with a fighting spirit, and she got excited. “Okay.”
Grabbing the black ruler, Hong Qinghe thought about it for a while. “You just finished a battle. Why don’t we fight after you take a break?”
However, Lou Xiaoxiao wanted to press on. “No! Let’s just start now!”
Ye Zhuixun felt that it was a pity. “I also wanted to fight the both of them, but I’m too late! If I had known, I would’ve challenged Miss Xiaoxiao first.”
On the other hand, Lou Qianxue became curious. “I think that this battle is going to be interesting.”
“Huh? What did you notice, Master?”
“Nothing. I just want to know where’s Xiaoxiao’s limit.”
“Can Hong Qinghe reveal Miss Xiaoxiao’s limit? Do you think that Miss Xiaoxiao will lose?” Ye Zhuixun was unwilling to concede. “She’s a battle genius. Not only did she understand the water concept, but her sword skills are also impressive. How can she lose?”
Lou Qianxue glanced at him. “Let me ask you. Do you know what’s Hong Qinghe’s trump card?”
The question surprised Ye Zhuixun, and he tried to recall the only battle Hong Qinghe fought. He tentatively answered, “The integration of man and ruler?”
