Chapter 220 - Arena
"Why would it take 3 days?" Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.
The scheme in the Misty Forest doesn't seem like something that can be resolved anytime soon.
After all, the enemies were openly creating chaos in the Misty Forest without trying to be discreet.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing laughed heartily as she leaned closer to Yang Wei.
"Right- I forgot to inform you but there would be an envoy coming from the Central Zone." Elder Jing whispered softly.
It was almost like a nuke was dropped onto Yang Wei's head when he heard this information from Elder Jing.
Yang Wei gritted his teeth as he glared angrily at Elder Jing.
"You're cheating." Yang Wei then accused her.
"How am I cheating, Yang Wei?"
"You purposely hid this kind of crucial information from me and made this bet." Yang Wei trembled before closing his eyes to calm down.
He had once again been played by Elder Jing without a chance of victory.
An envoy coming to the Phoenix Kingdom is a big deal for every sect as that would mean an opportunity to go to a stronger area to cultivate more profound qi.
Hence, the Phoenix Sky Sect would definitely not allow troubles to arise in this time period otherwise, it might dissatisfy the envoy.
Elder Jing grinned evilly as she shrugged her shoulders. "The cultivation world has never been fair so why would I play a fair game with you?"
"The one to blame here is none other than you, Yang Wei. You agreed to it easily in a bet that you have no information about." She added.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"I might not be able to outwit you in this type of situation but there is something I can win." Yang Wei smiled as he pulled Elder Jing closer and placed her in his lap.
"At least I was able to win the most amazing and knowledgeable woman." Yang Wei then said as he kissed her lips lightly.
Elder Jing curled her lips upward. "Indeed, you are way out of my league but I still choose you."
Sometime later, they both tidied up their clothes as they prepared to head to the arena.
"Although I have given you the inner disciple status already- you should still attend the arena where we'll be announcing those who passed the test." Elder Jing said.
"Un, if worse comes to worst, then you can have me battle one of the strongest to prove my capability is worthy enough."
After that, Elder Jing and Yang Wei arrived at the arena. The arena was filled with a sea of people that were cheering for the people fighting.
However, when they realized Elder Jing had arrived, they instinctively moved aside to create a path for Elder Jing to walk by.
Elder Jing slowly walked through the crowd and was soon greeted by Elder Kun.
"Elder Jing, here's a list of the outer disciples that we're planning to promote." Elder Kun said as he handed over a list.
Elder Jing grabbed the list and started viewing it as she took a seat down.
"Is this the final fight?" Elder Jing suddenly asked without looking up at the stage.
"Un, the one throwing punches right now is called Qin Xiaobo and he is already in the 2nd Foundation Core realm." Elder Kun said as he pointed at a tall and bulky man.
"The one deflecting his punches is called? Qiao Weiyuan and he is also in the 2nd Foundation Core realm. Both of them are qualified enough to become inner disciples and have a bright future ahead of them." He added.
Elder Jing nodded her head.
Sometime later, the fight between Qiao Weiyuan and Qin Xiaobo ended with Qin Xiaobo coming up as the victor.
"Congratulations to Qin Xiaobo for winning against Qiao Weiyuan." The referee on the stage shouted loudly to announce the result.
The crowds erupted into multiple cheers as some females also whistled at Qin Xiaobo.
Some females were even more outrageous as they openly shouted at Qin Xiaobo that their courtyard was open for them.
Their invitation couldn't be more obvious as Qin Xiaobo was being invited for a lovely night by multiple beautiful females.
"Qin Xiaobo, my mouth technique is unparalleled so please visit me at night."
"Who needs some mouth technique when my legs are open for you, Qin Xiaobo."
The male disciples were envious of Qin Xiaobo's strength as they wanted to be the ones invited to their courtyard as well.
While the crowd was frantic, Elder Jing suddenly slammed the table down with the list.
BAM!
The crowd instantly shut their mouth when they realized it was Elder Jing.
"Is there a problem?" Elder Kun asked as he started sweating profusely.
He was confused as to why Elder Jing would suddenly slam the table in a thunderous noise.
Elder Jing ignored Elder Kun's question as she stood up and hopped onto the stage.
The referee quickly moved aside and stood still without daring to make any eye contact with her.
Elder Jing continued walking and glanced at Qiao Weiyuan who was knocked down by Qin Xiaobo.
"You're Qiaxo Weiyuan right?" Elder Jing asked.
Qiao Weiyuan's eyes were fuzzy as he nodded his head and struggled to get up.
"T-This disciple is called Qiao Weiyuan." He then said with much difficulty.
His mouth was still bleeding a little from the punches he received from Qin Xiaobo and there were multiple bruises around his body.
Elder Jing nodded her head.
"Here's a recovery pill for you." Elder Jing retrieved a pill and threw it toward Qiao Weiyuan.
Afterward, Elder Jing glanced at Qin Xiaobo who held a dumbfounded expression.
"The winner of this fight is Qiao Weiyuan." Elder Jing suddenly announced, shocking the crowd and Elder Kun with her decision.
"W-What do you mean by that, Elder Jing?" Qin Xiaobo asked. "I clearly defeated Qiao Weiyuan and he didn't even have any chance of countering my attacks."
"That's because Qiao Weiyuan was fighting you fair and square.
