Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Blinding Your Dog Eyes(1)_1

"Trash, let’s see who will save you today!" Ji Lingling said, and then she launched another attack.

Dugu Qianye pretended to retreat, dodging left and right among the crowd. Her movements seemed erratic, but she deliberately chose to be behind Ji Family members, causing each attack to land on them instead. Several people were knocked down by Ji Lingling and her siblings while they were off guard.

Seeing her own people being knocked down, Ji Lingling became desperate and attacked more fiercely. After about half an hour, when Dugu Qianye saw that the number of people was about right, she moved in front of Ji Lingling, feigned a fall, grabbed her left shoulder with both hands, exerted a strong force, and with an over-the-shoulder throw sent her tumbling out of the ring.

It wasn’t until she was helped up that Ji Lingling realized she had been eliminated.

Dugu Qianye moved in front of Ji Anyang, avoiding his attack, luring him to the edge of the ring. Then, with a quick step, she moved behind him, gave a kick, and easily sent him off the ring.

Several more were knocked out of the ring, and when only twenty were left, the referee called a halt. Due to Dugu Qianye’s disruption, the Mo Family, which had been at a disadvantage in terms of number and strength, actually had eleven people remaining, while the Ji Family had only nine. The Qiu Family had the last twelve standing, and the Li Family had eight left.

Seeing Dugu Qianye in the ring, everyone expressed surprise, but they only attributed it to her good luck.

The next day, the second round of the competition took place.

Today’s competition mainly consisted of one-on-one duels, with forty advancing to twenty.

Before the competition, the forty contestants drew lots together; there were forty slips of paper, each marked with numbers one to twenty in red and blue ink. During the competition, those with the same number would face each other as opponents.

Dugu Qianye opened her slip of paper, number eighteen, which was one of the last. After the competition started, Dugu Qianye watched each duel on the ring seriously, gauging the strength of her potential opponents.

The first match was between the Ji Family and the Li Family. The Ji Family had an eighteen-year-old fifth-level Phantom Master, while the Li Family had a twenty-year-old sixth-level Sword Master. The Ji Family member initiated the attack, with orange Phantom Power heading towards the Swordsman, who dodged to the side, ran towards the attacker after exiting the range, and emitted orange Sword Qi.

The Ji Family Phantom Master created a shield of Phantom Power in front of him, which blocked the Sword Qi, and shouted, "Giant Fang Tiger!"

With the summoning, a three-meter-long white tiger appeared on the ring, its head sparkling with eight triangular stars—an eighth-level Spiritual Beast! The Giant Fang Tiger roared toward the sky and charged at its opponent, continuously shooting Phantom Power blasts from its mouth. The Swordsman had to abandon his plan for close combat and became entangled with the Giant Fang Tiger. On the sidelines, the Ji Family Phantom Master watched his Phantom Beast fight the opponent, and while the opponent was distracted, he launched an attack that sent the Swordsman off the ring.

With the help of a Phantom Beast, that’s a huge advantage of being a Phantom Master!

In the following matches, there were confrontations between Phantom Masters, where the competition revolved around who would run out of Phantom Power first and whose Phantom Beast was stronger. There were also matches between Swordsmen.

In the twelfth match, Mo Lian faced Ji Anping from the Ji Family. A fourth-level Phantom Master versus a first-level Great Phantom Master, the outcome was without suspense.

"Hehe, if your Mo Lian hadn’t run into our Anping, she might have had a chance to make it into the top ten," the Ji Family Head said to Mo Jian with a laugh, seemingly consoling but barely hiding his pride, "But now, it looks like it will be difficult for the Mo Family to take first place."

"It’s not over until the end, Ji Family Head," Mo Jian replied coolly.

The Ji Family Head was left speechless by Mo Jian’s retort, giving a cold snort, he turned his head to watch the ring.

The first seventeen matches ended rather quickly, and Wang Youwei stepped onto the stage to announce, "Group eighteen, Dugu Qianye of the Mo Family versus Li Qianhua of the Li Family." Having said that, he stepped down from the platform, giving Dugu Qianye a slight nod as he passed her. The Young Master had insisted on taking good care of his brother when he left. Although Wang Youwei wasn’t sure why Dugu Qianye was referred to as a man, it was still imperative to look after her more, or the Young Master would surely fight with him to the death.

Dugu Qianye ascended to the platform, puzzled by Wang Youwei’s gesture of goodwill, but she cast it aside for the moment as now was not the time to ponder it. She eyed Li Qianhua across from her, a seventh-level Phantom Master! He was one of the higher-ranked competitors, and although he was still not enough of a challenge for her, she took the matchup seriously.

"You should just surrender, that way I might spare you, waste of space. Otherwise, if you end up missing an arm or a leg and can’t get married, don’t blame me," Li Qianhua said disdainfully, looking at Dugu Qianye.

"Is that so, let’s try then," Dugu Qianye responded, invoking the Ethereal Step Technique and launching an attack on Li Qianhua. Before Li Qianhua could even gather his Phantom Power, he was kicked off the stage by Dugu Qianye’s ’level sands wild goose kick’.

The entire arena fell deathly silent. After a long while, an uproar broke out!

"Damn, are my eyes deceiving me, or what?" said Spectator A.

"Oh my god, did someone switch out that loser Ajiu? How did he stop being a loser?" cried Spectator B in astonishment.

"How is she so fast?" wondered Spectator C.

"I saw her defeat Ji Lingling of the Ji Family last time."

"Ji Lingling? The genius who became a first-level Phantom Master at sixteen from the Ji Family?! Damn, she lost to Ajiu too!"

"Who would’ve thought the Mo Family’s waste wasn’t a waste after all, no wonder she dared to show up and embarrass herself!" The Li Family Head said acidly, seeing a member of his family get knocked off the stage by the so-called waste Ajiu.

"Heh," Mo Jian grinned ear to ear, "My Ajiu is no waste anymore. Otherwise, what does that make the one defeated by a ’waste’ with a single move? An even bigger waste!"

"Hmph, maybe it was just a fluke! She didn’t display any Phantom or Sword skills, which means she still can’t cultivate," retorted the Li Family Head.

"Is that so, Family Head Li? We shall see," Mo Jian replied, entirely unfazed by the Family Head Li’s remarks.

After stepping down from the stage, Dugu Qianye passed by the Ji Family’s resting area, where Ji Lingling glared at her furiously, as if wanting to tear her apart and devour her. Dugu Qianye walked on without looking sideways, not bothering with such an insignificant clown.

The next two pairings quickly finished their matches.

After the knockout round, Wang Youwei took the stage to announce the list of those advancing. The Mo Family had only four people advancing: Dugu Qianye and three other Mo Family disciples. The Ji Family had six, the Qiu Family four, and the Li Family six.

On the way back, the Mo Family disciples surrounded Dugu Qianye, talking to her incessantly. Although they normally scorned her for not being able to cultivate and bringing shame upon the family, today she had won honor for the family, and in a single move no less, against the Li Family’s top seed. It was awesome!

To their chatter, Dugu Qianye occasionally nodded in acknowledgment, neither too enthusiastic nor too cold.

Mo Ju and Mo Lian followed behind the crowd, watching Dugu Qianye surrounded by people. Mo Lian was deeply moved; the sister she had always protected was finally capable of defending herself and had brought glory to the family. Mo Ju, on the other hand, was indignant, glowering at Dugu Qianye: "What’s so great about that? It’s just a win in a match. Not like she’s taken first place. What’s there to show off about?!"
