Hearing Bai Weiwei’s firm reply, Qing Xuzi said loudly, “You better think carefully. The remaining nine disciples are all outstanding disciples in the sect. If you get hurt, don’t regret your decision.”

Of course, he wasn’t concerned about Bai Weiwei. He had said those words for Xuan Yi to hear. After all, if Bai Weiwei got hurt, with Xuan Yi’s protectiveness of his disciples, he would definitely hold Qing Xuzi accountable.

“Of course. If my skills are not good enough, it’s not anyone’s fault that I get injured,” Bai Weiwei said lightly.

However, her calm reply displeased some disciples.

The disciples who were selected to enter the Sage Mystic Realm were all outstanding disciples of the Profound Sword Sect. And the candidates she had defeated before were mostly outstanding outer sect disciples, not inner sect disciples.

The nine disciples were outstanding inner sect cultivators, not some small fry from the outer sect!

Three of them were even the direct disciples of the elders. All of them were extremely talented and could easily defeat a mere half-step Golden Core Realm disciple.

“Hahaha, this is hilarious. This girl actually dared to agree, what a joke!”

“That’s right, one at the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm, two at the third level of the Golden Core Realm, five at the second level of the Golden Core Realm, and one at the first level of the Golden Core Realm. These top disciples all have the ability to fight people with levels higher than theirs. Where does she get her confidence?”

“Right, Xia Hanning, the senior sister who’s at the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm, is especially good. She is the strongest disciple among those under thirty years old. She’s the Second Elder’s personal disciple. I guess Bai Weiwei can’t last three moves when she fights against Xia Hanning.”

“Three moves? You think too highly of her. At most, one move. Senior sister Xia’s swordsmanship is extraordinary. She killed enemies of her level every ten steps in the Demon Sect. This time, senior sister Xia won’t need three moves to defeat this fake golden core disciple.”

“Tsk, I think senior sister Xia doesn’t need to make a move. Look at the cultivator of the third level of Golden Core Realm beside her. His name is Murong Tian, Murong Lei’s elder brother. He will avenge his younger brother who had been crippled by Bai Weiwei! You have to know that the Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique that the two of them practice together is invincible. They even have the strength to fight against senior sister Xia. Perhaps, he will slash Bai Weiwei’s throat with one sword move!”

“I don’t think the scenes you guys just described will happen. Look at that the senior brother at the first level of Golden Core Realm. He looks lazy but he’s actually extraordinary. His name is Di Si. He was born with double pupils. Not long ago, he awakened his dao and seems to have the potential to become a super master. Now, the First Elder has taken him in as a personal disciple. The First Eder said that this guy’s talent is even higher than Elder Xuan’s.”

“Is he really that strong?”

“Of course, he has inherited from the Blood Sword Emperor. Bai Weiwei will challenge him when she sees his relatively lower cultivation level and then there will definitely be a big battle. Moreover, the First Elder doesn’t like Elder Xuan. If Bai Weiwei loses this battle, then Elder Xuan will probably be impeached by the Council of Elders!”

…

With a frown, Qing Xuzi announced the start of the challenge under everyone’s expectant eyes.

“Bai Weiwei, since you’re the challenger, you can choose an opponent.”

Bai Weiwei glanced at the nine people. Some had powerful auras, some looked indifferent, and some looked disdainful. However, They all looked extremely confident. Obviously, they had absolute confidence in their own strengths!

The disciples in the audience had mocking expressions on their faces, as if they were watching a show.

A fake Golden Core Realm cultivator against nine strong cultivators. They thought she couldn’t fight even one of them, not to mention nine. No one thought Bai Weiwei would win.

“HMPH! B*tch, you dared to cripple my younger brother. If you dare, come and fight with your grandpa Murong,” Murong Tian roared, hoping that she would challenge him so that he could kill her to avenge his brother!

“Your younger brother Murong Lei is a good-for-nothing and a fool. He couldn’t even defeat a fake Golden Core Realm cultivator. He’s really trash. He’s a waste of resources. It’s better not to have him,” Di Si mocked lazily.

Hearing Di Si’s words, Murong Tian didn’t dare to say anything.

Although Di Si’s cultivation strength was inferior to Murong Tian’s, he had greater combat strength. More importantly, he was the disciple that the elders thought could replace Elder Xuan. How dared he talk back to Di Si?

“Di Si, watch your words. The sect needs to be united to get through this crisis. Don’t talk nonsense,” Senior Sister Xia said in a deep voice.

“Hehe, watch my words? What a joke. I have the potential to become a great emperor and will become the leader of the sect. You dare to lecture me? Humph! I’m not afraid even if her master Xuan Yi is here!”

A powerful aura rushed over, suppressing Xia Hanning. Her heart hurt at this great pressure.

At this moment, Bai Weiwei pointed her sword at Di Si and said, “Did you just call my master by his name?”

“Huh?” Di Si glanced from the corner of his eye. The girl actually dared to lecture him, which roused his interest.

“Hehe, call him by his name? So what? I’m a personal disciple of an elder, and I’m destined to lead the sect to rise in the future!”

“I’ll defeat you with only one sword strike!”

Hearing these words, everyone present gasped.

They were both geniuses. If this confrontation was not handled well, there might be casualties, which would be a great loss to the sect.

Qing Xuzi felt his head began to ache.

“Ahem, Bai Weiwei, are you sure? Are you really going to challenge Di Si?”

“No,” Bai Weiwei said indifferently, “Only the weak challenges the strong.

“I’m giving him a chance to challenge me!”

Immediately, the whole place was in an uproar.

This girl simply didn’t know how to spell the word ‘death’.

How could anyone call Di Si weak? Even senior sister Xia didn’t dare to offend him just now. It was obvious that her battle strength wasn’t as high as Di Si’s.

Bai Weiwei actually dared to speak in such a manner. She had offended all nine of them.

Di Si’s eyes turned red and his killing intent began to condense. It was obvious that he was in a state of rampage.

At this moment, a handsome man was stunned and put down the scroll he had been reading.

He was Xuan Yi. He was in the mysterious forbidden zone of the sect, looking up information about the Sage Mystic Realm.

Although he was busy, his mind had never left Bai Weiwei.

When he saw that his disciple was going to fight against nine Golden Core Realm genius disciples, he could not help but shake his head and laugh. “This girl is not bad. Like me, she is fearless before dangers. I wonder if she has mastered the Tai Yin scripture or not and what her potential is. Well, I’ll put aside the matter of the mystic realm for the moment. I’ll see how she deals with the situation.”

Therefore, he put down the scroll and focused all his awareness on the Underground Palace.
