Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Will It Be Painful?

Ling Chen gently pushed Ling Wu’s little head away and said, "Child, don’t ask about adult matters."

"Brother, I’m not a child anymore!"

Ling Wu straightened her budding chest and said proudly.

"In my eyes, you will always be a little brat!"

Ling Chen curled his lip.

Just as Ling Wu was about to retort, she heard Ling Chen say, "Alright, watch the match!"

At this moment, the second match of the Eight Palaces Martial Arts Tournament’s scoring round began.

Seeing that Ling Chen was ignoring her, Ling Wu pouted and squeezed onto Ling Chen’s seat, looking grumpy.

Fortunately, the seat was large enough to accommodate two people.

Ling Chen just let her be.

This match was between Taiyi Academy and Netherworld Academy.

This was Taiyi Academy’s home field, where countless spectating Cultivators were desperately cheering on the players from Taiyi Academy.

The noise was deafening, reaching to the skies.

Taiyi Academy was the champion of the last Eight Palaces Martial Arts Tournament.

Their strength was naturally not to be underestimated.

But, Netherworld Academy was significantly weaker.

Their cultivation was just a bit higher than that of True Martial Academy.

In terms of real strength, they were even inferior to True Martial Academy.

Naturally, they were no match for Taiyi Academy!

The weakest of Taiyi Academy were at the mid-phase of the Primordial Pill Realm Second Layer, which was the same as Luo Yue, the strongest from Netherworld Academy.

Taiyi Academy only sent out one player, who consecutively defeated four players from Netherworld Academy.

It was only until Luo Yue took action and defeated this player that Netherworld Academy saved some face and prevented Taiyi Academy from achieving an exciting "one versus five" miracle like what happened with True Martial Academy.

Ling Chen also learned of Luo Yue’s special constitution.

It was actually a wind and thunder Dual Attribute Super Spiritual Body!

Next, a student from Taiyi Academy named Zhuo Jiufeng took to the field, relying on his early Primordial Pill Realm Third Layer cultivation to easily defeat Luo Yue.

The highest-cultivation student with a Life Spirit Body, Su Su, did not make a move.

After this match concluded, there was a change in the scoring leaderboard.

True Martial Academy still ranked first.

Taiyi Academy became the second.

Netherworld Academy was the third.

Tianluo Academy could only be fourth.

The third match was between Taiwu Academy and Mighty Martial Academy.

Taiwu Academy hails from the Taiwu Prefecture in the north.

Taiwu Prefecture guards the Northern Border of the Great Xia Dynasty, its northernmost place bordering the Great Chu Dynasty.

There, wars raged incessantly.

Students from Taiwu Academy sometimes ventured to the Northern Border for training, and many had experienced the baptism of bloodshed, erupting with murderous intent in battle and possessing formidable combat strength.

They were not something that students from Mighty Martial Academy, who only knew how to hunt spirit beasts, could compare with.

Moreover, the cultivators from Mighty Martial Academy were too weak, the highest being only at the late stage of Primordial Pill Realm Second Layer.

Thus, with just one person, Taiwu Academy defeated all five students from Mighty Martial Academy.

Achieving yet another stunning "one versus five" feat!

The most anticipated was the fourth match, between Xuantian Academy and Heavenly Sound Academy.

These two Academies were said to be the highlights of this year’s Eight Great Academies Martial Arts Tournament.

Because within these two Academies, there was not just one person in the Primordial Pill Realm Third Layer, a level higher than other Academies by more than a notch.

It was said that in these two Academies, there were several students comparable to the top-tier Super Spiritual Body like the Cloud Mist Spirit Body.

Many even believed that the champion of this year’s Eight Great Academies Martial Arts Tournament would definitely be one of these two.

It was only the first day of the competition and these two great Academies had encountered each other, so how could people not be excited?

However, to everyone’s disappointment, Heavenly Sound Academy actually did not enter the battle and chose to admit defeat directly.

After the first round of the scoring match, the ranking of the points of the Eight Great Academies was as follows.

Xuantian Academy, Taiwu Academy, True Martial Academy, and Taiyi Academy each scored a point, taking the top four places.

While Netherworld Academy, Mighty Martial Academy, Tianluo Academy, and Heavenly Sound Academy all scored zero points, ranking in the last four places.

Heavenly Sound Academy, ranked last but nobody dares to underestimate.

Because Heavenly Sound Academy has several Cultivators in the third layer of Primordial Pill Realm.

However, True Martial Academy, the academy that once almost hit rock bottom, has surprisingly secured a temporary third place, and with only one student, they blasted their opponent, shocking everyone onlookers.

Even with such performance from True Martial Academy, no one is optimistic.

After all, the cultivation level of the students from True Martial Academy is too low.

The highest is merely in the late second layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, and the remaining four are all in the first layer of the Primordial Pill Realm. How can they compete with academies like Heavenly Sound and Xuantian, which boast third-layer powerhouses?

Moreover, Ye Zhenzhen’s victory over Luo Yue from Tianluo Academy was partly due to luck.

The main reason for her win was the sudden burst of her Cloud Mist Spirit Body.

Now, other academies must have taken precautions against Ye Zhenzhen, making it extremely difficult to achieve such a victory again.

These four matches indeed finished rather quickly, only taking half a day, completely beyond Taiyi Academy’s expectations.

However, considering some participants were injured and needed time to heal, Xiao Yun announced the end of today’s competition.

This left the watching Cultivators feeling unsatisfied.

Especially those who had struggled to secure good spots, they complained endlessly.

They had come early, only to watch less than twenty fights before it ended, which was quite disappointing.

The players from the five major academies - Xuantian Academy, Heavenly Sound Academy, True Martial Academy, Taiyi Academy, and Taiwu Academy were quite relaxed. At most, they sent out two participants to fight, and some academies didn’t make a move at all.

Meanwhile, participants from the remaining three academies rushed back to heal their wounds.

Because of the brutal rules, many participants were injured.

Fortunately, it was only the first day of the competition, and there were no fatalities.

The worst case was Su Muyu from Tianluo Academy who was seriously injured.

But thankfully, a day or two of rest would be sufficient for recovery.

Back at Yunqi Inn, Palace Master Mo Han once again gathered everyone.

"Everyone performed well today, especially Ye Zhenzhen and Ling Chen,"

Mo Han praised.

"It’s what we should do,"

Ling Chen smiled in reply.

"Modest and calm, not bad!"

Mo Han’s smile grew thicker.

He encouraged everyone for a while and then left.

Night fell.

"Young Master Ling, are you there?"

Ye Zhenzhen stood at the door of Ling Chen’s room, knocking and asking.

"Come in."

Ling Chen’s voice came from inside.

Not long after Ye Zhenzhen entered, Ling Wu carefully slipped out of her room and tiptoed to Ling Chen’s door, pressing her ear against it.

She remembered Ling Chen had asked Ye Zhenzhen to look for him at night.

Soon after, Ling Chen and Ye Zhenzhen’s voices came from inside.

"Young Master, shall we start?"

"Yes!"

"Young Master, will it hurt much?"

"I’m not sure, but I will be gentle."

"Okay."

"Close your eyes, I’m coming in."

"Okay, Young Master, be gentle!"

"Alright!"

Hearing this, Ling Wu seemed to realize something, her face flushed with embarrassment.

She stood up and kicked the door open.

With a "bang", the door flew open.

Ling Wu stood with hands on hips, angrily saying, "What are you doing?"

Ling Chen and Ye Zhenzhen simultaneously turned their heads to look at Ling Wu.

Their eyes met.
