Ji Yuan's team was probably the only team that did not discuss its strategies yesterday and the entire night; it was because Ji Yuan had spent the remaining time of yesterday day and night chatting with Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue.
Naturally Xiao Muhan was excluded and he had only Bu Danwang to chat with.
Bu Danwang looked a little worried as he asked Xiao Muhan, "Are they discussing strategies? I don't want to fight alone or to fight along with you, because you are even weaker than me."
Xiao Muhan: …
Is this a slap on my face?
But he answered nevertheless to Bu Danwang, "Don't worry. They are not discussing anything related to combat or battle strategies over there."
"Why are you so sure about this? Maybe you are wrong?" Bu Danwang continued to say with a worry look.
Xiao Muhan smiled bitterly, "That is because I am that Ji Yuan's best friend."
"You are… Ji Yuan's best friend? You don't look like it." Bu Danwang appeared to be shocked. "Didn't he suggest letting you fight alone for the 3rd round of battle earlier?"
Xiao Muhan said bitterly, "You can't believe half the words that he is saying. He has an impure soul sea."
"Strong cultivators don't lie, do they?" Bu Danwang appeared to be shocked. "You aren't kidding with me, right? No cultivators can survive the lightning calamity to become a great saint if they have impure soul sea. No, you can't even become a saint in the first place. This is against our cultivation practice. You are a celestial too, so you should know. Am I right?"
Xiao Muhan sighed, "I am still trying to figure out how he becomes a great saint in the first place. Is it because of that Dream Trial? Darn, how he survives his breakthrough with his impure cultivation in the first place… maybe it is easier for a sword cultivator… the darndest question is, how did he overtake me so quickly in the first place…"
The next day, while Ji Yuan, Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue were still laughing jovially as they chat, Ling Feiyue had suddenly announced to Ji Yuan that she would be fighting in the second group.
"Ji Yuan, I am going to fight on my own for the second battle."
Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at Ling Feiyue's bosoms. "Are you serious Feiyue? Are you sure?"
Ling Feiyue had suddenly put her hand on Ji Yuan's chin and lifted it up so that his golden eyes could look at her golden eyes instead, "Where do you think that you are looking at?"
Ji Yuan protested weakly as his eyes looked again below her, "Of course I am looking at my beloved Feiyue. What else?"
Ling Feiyue lifted his chin high up until even his lowered eyes were looking at her, "Are you in love with me because of my body or because of my face?"
Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "Is there a difference?"
When he had said that, Ling Feiyue had kicked him lightly and so did Chu Lixue who was listening.
Ji Yuan replied weakly, "Erm…"
He asked Xiang Li and Anyang: what is the correct reply?
Xiang Li shouted excitingly: Beautiful body!
Anyang giggled: Beautiful face of course!
Ji Yuan: Xiang Li, your reply is too lame!
He quickly replied, "Your… beautiful face… of course."
Ling Feiyue said unhappily, "So if I am ugly, you won't like me at all?"
Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Erm… right?"
Needless to be said, Ji Yuan got slapped by both Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue for his 'lame' answers.
Crap! I should have listen to Xiang Li and answered beautiful body instead...
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, "You know that I am only teasing you. Of course, I like my beloved Ling Feiyue for who you are."
100 years ago, Ling Feiyue had already left a deep impression in his heart and 100 years later, they were almost constantly together.
Against her patriarch wishes at the very start, Ling Feiyue had even requested for Ji Yuan to be the dark lord of her unorthodox celestial sect.
At that time, she did not care if Ji Yuan was a lowly cultivator or not.
She had setup Ji Yuan 100 years ago when she was 200 years, considered to be very young for a young saintess at that time and she was also a super genius. In fact, Ji Yuan at that time was twice her age and even had a lower cultivation than her.
But she had admired Ji Yuan and wanted to see him but she had also heard that he was not interested in the maidens and only the men.
But still, she wanted to see if this was true by meeting him face to face.
They did not really start off being quite amicable as Ji Yuan had treated her like a rival instead.
pandasnovel.com This was completely different from what her spies or rumors had told her about Ji Yuan the Great Poet.
At that time, she was not sure if she was in love with Ji Yuan yet because they got a big poor and rich background in disparity in cultivation wealth and locations. And she was just purely trying to get to know him out of curiosity and not because of love.
It was only 100 years later when he was beardless and she had gone on a trial with him that she had liked him more and more.
The rest was history.
Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherent to himself, "If I am ugly, you won't even look at me in the first place…"
"What did you just say?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.
Ji Yuan laughed weakly, "I mean to say, are you certain that you want to fight on your own for the second battle? It may be dangerous for you."
Ling Feiyue smiled, "Yeah! I am a great saintess too, Ji Yuan. Even before I know you, I've been through plenty of dangers and trials. If I am only depending on you or the others, then I won't be able to breakthrough in my cultivation. Besides…"
She had turned to look at Chu Lixue with a smile, "I like to have a little competition with Maiden Chu Lixue here."
Chu Lixue was smiling divinely, "You are a worthy rival. I will also fight alone for the 3rd round of battle."
Ji Yuan: ???
"What are the two of you talking about?"
Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue were both smiling mysteriously and did not answer Ji Yuan; it was because the two of them had fought together in a life and death battle in the Demonic Divine Realm and had even gained their sword domain at the same time.
They had the utmost respect for each other and the two of you are not just sword saintesses but half-step sword immortals too.
Chu Lixue smiled to Ling Feiyue, "You are more accomplished than I am when I was at your age."
Ling Feiyue looked a little flustered as she lowered her head, "But you are more beautiful and Ji Yuan looks at you more than me."
Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Am I that sort of a person? I love the both of you equally!"
Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue both said at the same time, "We know that you are lying! And you love your Jiajia more than us because you keep talking about her!"
Ji Yuan: …
Why can't I please them with mere flattering?

The second round of battle had started.
This time round, there was no extra time for the teams since they had a full day to plan their strategies.
Ling Feiyue had stepped gracefully into the battle arena.
The primeval monster that was spawn this time was an ugly winged raptor with many spikes on its back.
It was also as big as the primeval monster at the first round of battle and this was also a powerful 7th rank beast.
Ling Feiyue had displayed her sword spirit and also her new divine sword that Ji Yuan had given her in the Demonic Divine Realm; it was an emperor-step divine sword.
She smiled as she mustered the profound force of her Six Realms Divine Art into her profound aura before she displayed her Flying Spirit Sword Art the Thousand Raining Swords as dozens over dozens of profound swords began to form around her in multiple circles.
As the 7th rank beast attacked her, Ling Feiyue was also attacking with her a flying stance forward.
But instead of her usual Thousand Raining Swords, she had also displayed her sword domain to cause her Thousand Raining Swords to be extremely lethal.
"Sword domain… Six Realms Raining Swords!"
Hundreds of profound swords pierced onto the armor of this 7th rank beast before exploding its profound energies; this poor 7th rank beast did not even how it was killed or where Ling Feiyue was.
Ling Feiyue lightly tiptoed on the ground as she slowly sheathed the emperor-step divine sword.
She whispered to herself: Thank you, Ji Yuan, for your sword…
When Ji Yuan had given her this emperor-step divine sword, he had told her although her killing field was wide but without a powerful divine sword, the killing effectiveness of her sword domain would be limited against the same cultivation realm opponents.
Above her, the Trial Spirit had also announced. "Champion Ling Feiyue wins. 3 Points are rewarded for the team."
