Chapter 263 The Battle Begins
The martial arts competition began soon, and all the disciples watched with tension and excitement.
Seeing that Liu Ruxuan was lost in thought, Ye Liuli felt anxious for her.
On the surface, Liu Ruxuan was lost in thought, but in reality, she had run into the space to retrieve the Memory Fruit.
It took a long time to find Liu Ruxuan. After her soul returned to her body, Liu Ruxuan secretly used the Memory-Retrieval Fruit to record the martial arts test.
In the first round, the first match was between Yan Shangxian of the Seven Mysteries Sect and Li Yingyang of the Wind and Moon Sect. Both were indeed skilled disciples, each move imbued with powerful spiritual energy and superb combat techniques. Liu Ruxuan watched with great interest, memorizing most of the moves.
After a long time, all six people in the first round had sparred in two-on-two, and in the end, Zhao Qingqiu of the Quanzhen Sect won.
Second round: Tianling Sect's Mo Fei wins.
Round 3: Huanye Sect's Zixu wins.
During the competition, Liu Ruxuan's eyes would occasionally sweep towards Dugu Juechen on the high platform, but Dugu Juechen never looked in her direction. Liu Ruxuan felt inexplicably disappointed.
In the fourth and final round, Liu Ruxuan was unfortunately pushed out. Out of consideration for the church's reputation, Liu Ruxuan did not object, but simply looked at the elders, including Zhiyuan. Yunhan felt Liu Ruxuan's gaze, paused slightly, and then smiled radiantly, making the world seem to lose its color.
The audience, both on and off stage, couldn't help but gasp.
Yin Hongxue certainly looked like he was enjoying the show.
Liu Ruxuan's gaze finally fell on Dugu Juechen. Dugu Juechen's cold and aloof appearance made Liu Ruxuan really unhappy.
When Sikong Hao and Yi Yan saw Liu Ruxuan's dark face, they assumed that she was nervous and scared because she was going to participate in the competition.
Liu Ruxuan shifted her gaze from Dugu Juechen, then swept her eyes over Sikong Hao and Yi Yan. Both of them had a hint of encouragement in their expressions, and Liu Ruxuan smiled slightly.
Unfortunately, a certain sect leader happened to see this. Zhiyuan and the other two were closest to him. He suddenly felt a chill, turned his head to look at Dugu Juechen, but didn't say anything and continued watching the game.
Liu Ruxuan was seen facing off against a young man from the Seven Mysteries Sect.
The two flew up to the Five Spirits Platform one after the other.
"Yan Liuqing, please enlighten me." Yan Liuqing clasped his hands in a fist salute to Liu Ruxuan, a hint of contempt on his lips.
Liu Ruxuan saw through Yan Liuqing's strength; he was at the seventh level and there was no sign of him being suppressed or faking it. She then smiled faintly and said, "Liu Ruxuan, please."
"Then I won't hold back!" Yan Liuqing said, preparing to make his move. Although he thought Liu Ruxuan was somewhat attractive, he would definitely not hold back. He was determined to defeat Liu Ruxuan in one blow, so as to bring glory to the Seven Mysteries Sect.
Yan Liuqing struck Liu Ruxuan with a palm strike, but Liu Ruxuan stared at him without moving and actually laughed.
Yan Liuqing was puzzled. Why wasn't Liu Ruxuan making a move? Was she terrified after witnessing his strength?
"Drink—!" Yan Liuqing shouted, without hesitation, his palm turned into a fist, and he secretly added a few more points of force, striking towards Liu Ruxuan's brow.
Zhiyuan and Yunhan, who were watching from the sidelines, were gripped tightly. Ye Liuli and Xia Qiyou were anxiously thinking: Why hasn't Ruxuan made a move yet?!
Just as Yan Liuqing's fist was about to reach Liu Ruxuan, Liu Ruxuan flipped backward and leaped backward.
Yan Liuqing's first attack failed, and a second one followed immediately. Liu Ruxuan leaped into the air and struck Yan Liuqing squarely in the chest, then dodged to the side. Liu Ruxuan stood behind Yan Liuqing, her clothes fluttering in the wind.
