Chapter 1198: Chapter 1198: The First Match, Victory

At that moment, it was the Four Sects Alliance’s turn to laugh.

"I thought your Hundred Beasts Sect was capable of great feats, but it turns out they are just as easily defeated as anyone else."

"To be toyed with by the disciples of our Four Sects Alliance, it truly is laughable."

Zhang Xiong was seething with rage. If it wasn’t for Xi Hu’s presence, he would’ve charged over and taught Fierce Lion a harsh lesson long ago.

On the stage, Zhang Lin’s face was ashen white, and he left the auction platform in a sorry state, his Spiritual Power nearly depleted.

When he returned to the Hundred Beasts Sect group, what greeted him was nothing but scornful looks from everyone.

Zhang Xiong even had the thought of killing Zhang Lin, but this was an auction.

Murder was against the rules of the auction house.

Even if it was his own Sect disciple, such actions were not permitted.

If he were to strike, he would probably offend the entire Chongxu Sect.

"Think about your punishment when we get back."

Zhang Lin hung his head low and silently retreated to his group.

Miao Si looked toward the Hundred Beasts Sect and his gaze stopped on the figure of a tall disciple.

He recognized this man, who was a Core Disciple from the Hundred Beasts Sect.

Thus, he said to the nearby Fierce Lion, "Next up, the Hundred Beasts Sect should send that tall disciple to fight. This person is the eldest senior brother of the Hundred Beasts Sect and also their most powerful Core Disciple."

"It is said that this person once single-handedly killed a Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivator."

Fierce Lion involuntarily took a deep breath as his gaze gradually settled on Ning Fan.

Wei Qiuwan’s consumption was similarly high, facing the next formidable enemy she was likely no match at all.

So, he stood up and looked toward Wei Qiuwan in the arena.

"Qiuwan, you can come down now."

Wei Qiuwan nodded slightly, immediately taking an Elixir from her sleeve and swallowing it, and after a moment of regulating her breath, she was about to get up and leave when she heard a voice calling out.

"Young girl, you have nice talent. If you join our Chongxu Sect, we can offer you plenty of resources. At least it would be more suitable than staying with the Four Sects Alliance. Why not consider it?"

Wei Qiuwan glanced in the direction of the Four Sects Alliance below the stage and after focusing on that figure for a moment, she responded with a polite smile, "Thank you for the invitation, senior, but I’m afraid I must decline."

The rejected Xi Hu seemed somewhat surprised, but he became even more impressed with Wei Qiuwan.

A disciple of the Four Sects Alliance who wasn’t tempted by benefits, such a disciple intrigued him even more.

Wei Qiuwan returned to her group, nodded at several Sect Masters, and then her gaze fell on Ning Fan.

"Xu Fan, I used everything you taught me this time."

Ning Fan smiled and hummed in acknowledgment.

Indeed, the sword formation was Ning Fan’s teaching, but given the short time, fortunately, Wei Qiuwan’s excellent talent meant it didn’t take long for her to use the sword formation.

The effects of using the sword formation didn’t disappoint him.

Nor did it disappoint Wei Qiuwan.

From the very beginning, Ning Fan had planned to let Wei Qiuwan use the sword formation to hold the opponent back while using agile movements to deplete the opponent. That way, the contest could be almost assured.

The Hundred Beasts Sect disciples’ Cultivation Techniques were mostly offensive in nature, and although they had extreme attack power, they also demanded a great deal of Spiritual Power.

Thus, a little depletion would make it easy to secure victory.

Fierce Lion and Miao Si were both beaming with joy; this battle could be said to have fully restored the honor of the Four Sects Alliance.

Looking at Zhang Xiong’s desperate and frustrated appearance now, it brought them a sense of satisfaction.

"Sect Master, can I take part in the second fight now?"

As a Core Disciple of Shuiyun Mountain, Gongsun Zheng couldn’t contain his eager emotions and asked aloud.

He was a Core Disciple of Shuiyun Mountain, after all. It was time for his turn to participate.

However, upon hearing Gongsun Zheng’s words, Luo Cang, the Sect Master of Shuiyun Mountain, could only sigh helplessly.

This contest was unlikely to see Gongsun Zheng make an appearance.

He had been aware of this from the moment Gongsun Zheng obtained Ning Fan as the Sect Master.

Fierce Lion was undecided at the moment. He knew of Gongsun Zheng’s talent.

But from what just occurred, it was evident that Gongsun Zheng had offended Sect Master Ning Fan.

It seemed Gongsun Zheng no longer had a chance to participate.

Ning Fan smiled lightly, glanced at Gongsun Zheng, and spoke directly, "I think Daoist Gongsun’s strength is extraordinary, and he will surely defeat the person from the Hundred Beasts Sect."

Fierce Lion was slightly surprised, but since the Sect Master had spoken, he naturally had no further objections.

So, he looked toward the other Sect Masters.

"What do you think?"

"I agree," said Miao Si, nodding thoughtfully.

"Gongsun Zheng is quite capable, more than enough to handle the disciple from the Hundred Beasts Sect. Let him go up."

Gongsun Zheng, flattered by Miao Si’s praise, immediately swelled with pride and cast a haughty glance at Ning Fan.

It was as if he was showing off the praise he received from the Sect Master of the Four Sects Alliance to Ning Fan.

Ning Fan merely gave a faint smile and thought to himself that Gongsun Zheng was an idiot.

This idiot didn’t even know what "setting someone up to fail" meant.

Fierce Lion, somewhat taken aback, looked at Miao Si, having rarely seen him praise a disciple so highly.

This made him smell the scent of a scheme.

"You old fox, what mischief are you planning now?" he asked quietly.

Miao Si offered a backhanded smile but did not answer directly.

"Fellows, wait for the good news."

Full of confidence, Gongsun Zheng bowed to everyone and then headed straight for the auction platform.
