Chapter 814: Chapter 814: Genius Eldest Miss vs. Reborn Concubine-born Daughter (Part 25)
“Thank you for letting me win,” Gu Shengyin said gracefully, clasping her fists and speaking to the person opposite her.
The man on the opposite side got up, expressing sincere admiration to Gu Shengyin: “Thank you for going easy on me.”
Their levels of strength were not even on the same scale.
The surrounding audience had long lost their initial excitement, for they were utterly stunned and numb to the prowess of this woman from the Tianxuan Empire.
From the very beginning, she overwhelmed her opponents, advancing from the preliminary rounds to the shuffle rounds, and now into the semifinals.
She wasn’t the only one to secure an undefeated record, but she was definitely the only one who seemed vastly more powerful than her opponents.
Every opponent who faced her couldn’t hold on for longer than the time it takes an incense stick to burn.
No matter how powerful her opponents were, this young woman was always relaxed and composed, showing everyone that she never exerted her full strength.
If someone is a bit stronger than others, they might attract jealousy.
But when someone is many times stronger, so much so that it makes you look up in awe, you can’t even feel envious anymore.
This is exactly how others felt about Gu Shengyin now.
Young martial artists capable of participating in the Youth Arising Competition were already the strongest in each Empire, possessing talents beyond reach in the eyes of ordinary people.
However, even such strong individuals found themselves powerless before this girl.
People had only heard that she possessed the Innate Mystic Qi Perfection, being the direct disciple of the mysterious foremost Great High Priest of the Tianxuan Continent. Everyone merely thought these titles sounded impressive, without pondering their significance.
Until today, Gu Shengyin demonstrated with her strength that these weren’t just titles; beneath them lay overwhelming power capable of crushing all doubts.
It was too astonishing!
Lie Xiao gazed mesmerized at the red-clothed woman exuding confidence in the arena, his heart burning with passion.
He had never been so clearly aware of what kind of woman he had fallen for. She was unlike anyone else; she was unique.
In fact, he might not even be worthy of her.
But Lie Xiao had no thought of retreating; he watched Gu Shengyin intently, softly saying, “Such an unparalleled woman, I, the King, must acquire.”
These words were spoken so softly that even the person seated next to him did not hear.
However, a certain white-clothed person who kept a thread of Divine Sense focused on him did.
The phrase turned the white-clothed person’s face dark.
Consequently, Lord Lie Xiao once again felt a sudden chill even under the blazing sun.
He shivered, tucked away his recent thoughts, and looked once more at the cloudless sunny sky.
Could it be that he was indeed unwell? Never mind, after the competition ends, instead of seeking out Miss Linyin, it would be wiser to find a physician first.
Feeling that the gaze no longer fixated on Gu Shengyin, the white-clothed person nodded in satisfaction.
He sat in this arena, clearly amidst a sea of contested seats with no place to sit, yet there were empty seats all around him.
This truly was surprising.
But the most surprising fact was that although no one sat around him, no one found it peculiar. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on Nove1Fire.net
If someone attempted to pass by, they’d instinctively avoid this spot, as if it didn’t exist at all.
