1016: Chapter 976 Full Confidence 1016: Chapter 976 Full Confidence The caretaker hurried out and came up to Xsu Qing, hastily asking, “Miss, why have you come here?

Xsu You has only just returned not too long ago.

What do you want to spar with him about?”

Xsu Qing, with her hands on her hips and in a proud tone, said, “I want to have a duel with him.

I’m not afraid of him anymore.

If he accepts my duel now, he will definitely become my defeated subordinate!”

Seeing Xsu Qing so confident made the caretaker scratch his head in confusion.

He looked at Xsu Qing and asked, “Miss, Master Xsu You is now a favorite of the City Lord, and his strength is formidable.

He’s not the same person he was one or two years ago.”

“And you, in the past year or two, have not been training very diligently.

Your Realm hasn’t improved much, and your training with the Uncanny Fire has been very average.

If the two of you were to spar, forgive me for being blunt, but I’m afraid there is no chance of you winning at all.”

Upon hearing this, Xsu Qing immediately felt extremely embarrassed and somewhat angry.

“Hey!

What do you mean by that?

You don’t believe in me, is that it?

Are you doubting my strength?”

“Of course I wouldn’t dare.

I’ve just stated some facts.

I’ve seen how you have been training these past two years.

Compared to Xsu You, it’s indeed a lot worse.”

Xsu Qing took a deep breath and earnestly said, “Call Xsu You out for me; I want to spar with him!

Tell him to come out!”

Xsu Qing shouted resolutely, her tone firm, showing no sign of backing down.

Seeing this, the caretaker sighed helplessly.

“Then please wait here for a while.

I’ll go and inform the master.”

“Don’t waste time talking; I want to go in now and see what they are really talking about!”

Immediately after, Xsu Qing pushed open the door and went inside.

Upon reaching the central hall, she saw Xsu You sitting in a chair to the side, and on the main seat in the middle sat a middle-aged man dressed in Martial Path garments.

The middle-aged man was naturally Xsu Qing’s father, Xsu Changye.

He quickly stood up when he saw Xsu Qing entering and raised his hand to ask, “Xsu Qing, what are you doing here?

I’m discussing matters with your brother.”

“I want to duel him, spar for a bit!”

Xsu Qing raised her hand and pointed at Xsu You.

“What?

A duel?

Sparring?

You’re not joking, are you?

You’ve come here just for that?

Your brother has finally come back after such a long time.

Let’s talk about sparring some other time.”

Xsu Changye tried to persuade her.

“It’s precisely because he hasn’t come back for so long that I want to duel with him just once.

Dad, don’t worry; I will definitely win!”

Xsu Qing said with great confidence.

Xsu Changye, upon hearing this, shook his head helplessly and turned back to look at Xsu You, “Don’t bother with her.

She’s not feeling comfortable; probably has some anger she can’t vent.

And don’t bother sparring; I’m afraid you might accidentally hurt her.”

“Dad, of course, I won’t spar with her.

The training I’ve undergone in the army barracks in the city has been extremely brutal.

My strength now is something Xsu Qing can’t catch up with.”

“If we were to duel now, I’m afraid I really would hurt her.”

Xsu You appeared quite helpless as he spread his hands.

Seeing this, Xsu Qing immediately clenched her fists in anger.

“Xsu You!

What did you say?

You’re looking down on me, aren’t you?

Come to the yard with me now; I want to teach you a lesson you’ll regret!”

Xsu Qing said furiously.

“Hey, what’s with that attitude?

He’s your older brother!”

Xsu Changye pointed at Xsu You and spoke sternly.

“Hmph, what kind of older brother is he, not coming back to visit even once in a year or two?”

“Well, he’s back now, isn’t he?

He has a lot of responsibilities in the city; isn’t it normal that he’s been busy?”

Xsu Changye said helplessly.

“Dad, that’s not what you said about him behind his back.”

Xsu Changye quickly came over and whispered, “Don’t talk nonsense.

Some things are better said in private.

Don’t bring them up openly.

If you don’t speak well of him, he’ll be even less likely to come back!”

Xsu Qing bypassed Xsu Changye and walked towards Xsu You.

“Come on, let’s spar, I just want to test my current strength, I’m not afraid of you now.”

Xsu You stood up, his towering figure still imposing.

“Are you sure?”

Xsu You looked down at her and asked.

“Of course, quit the chatter and come outside with me!”

She turned and headed towards the gate.

Xsu You glanced at Xsu Changye, his expression showing difficulty.

“Go on, play with her.

You haven’t seen each other for a long time; consider it catching up.”

Xsu Changye said helplessly, then followed Xsu Qing out.

Lu Chuan stood at the doorway, and when Xsu Changye passed by, he glanced at Lu Chuan.

“Who might you be?”

“My name is Lu Chuan, and this is Dongfang Cheng.”

“Lu Chuan?

I’ve heard my daughter mention you.

Are you the one who mastered Divine Fire?”

Upon hearing the words “Divine Fire,” Xsu You’s eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Lu Chuan.

“Yes, it seems Xsu Qing has told you everything, saving me the trouble of introducing myself.”

“Good, good, good, come on out.

Let’s see Xsu Qing’s skills, but be careful not to laugh at her if she loses.”

“Of course, I would never laugh at her, and besides, victory isn’t a sure thing yet.”

Xsu Changye shook his head with a smile, “You still know too little about her.

You see her brimming with confidence now, but in reality, she is very likely to be pretending to be something she’s not.”

Xsu Changye walked out with a smile.

Once they were in the courtyard, they cleared a spacious area for the two to spar.

Xsu You stood opposite Xsu Qing and raised his hand, gesturing her to come forward with a crook of his finger.

“You strike first; I’ll counter.”

Xsu Qing sneered, “Really?

I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle it!”

“Xsu Qing, bragging isn’t a good habit, best to kick it sooner rather than later.”

“Bragging?

I’ll show you right now if I’m just talking big!”

Subsequently, Xsu Qing raised her hands, her palms gathering Uncanny Fire.

Boom!!!

Two balls of flame burst forth instantaneously, leaping two to three meters high!

As the flames shrank, they began to gather together.

Soon, they condensed into a long spear in her hands!

Fiery Long Spear, a body of flame, terrifyingly hot, and bright with a clear orange-red hue.

Seeing this, Xsu You furrowed his brows, feeling the frightening heat of the Fiery Long Spear without even being close to it.

Even beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.

From a distance, Xsu Changye squinted, watching the Fiery Long Spear in Xsu Qing’s hands intently.

He felt puzzled; when had Xsu Qing’s training in Uncanny Fire become so powerful?

Whether it was the temperature, brightness, or even the soaring flames released just a moment ago, they all looked extraordinary.

Xsu Changye shook his head slightly, “How…

What has changed with her Uncanny Fire?”

He muttered to himself with confusion.

Immediately after, Xsu Qing tightened her grip on the Fiery Long Spear, ready to attack.
