236 Shi Rong VS Mei

The two girls stood at the opposite ends of the battle stage looking at each other. Neither one making a move. Mei could sense that this girl was different from the other stage four body refinement cultivators. She was calm and composed as if she had been in thousands of battles. She did not yell out some cringey phrase before drawing her sword and charging at her like the rest. No Mei could see in Shi Rong's eyes that she was a veteran. She knew not to rush in like a fool.

At this time while Shi Rong was studying Mei, Shi Rong was stuck on what to do. Although Mei looked to be standing there leisurely with her arms by her side. Shi Rong could not see a single opening. This fact alone made it so that Shi Rong had no idea what to do. This was a first for her. No matter who her opponent was, she was always able to see a slight opening. This was the gift of her eyes. But the beautiful girl in front of her with her long black hair and eyes that shined like the starry sky showed nothing. But the next thing Shi Rong saw made her shiver in fear. She watched as Mei took a step forward and stomped the ground. The tiles under her feet shattered to dust as Mei thrust her sword out. A blade of wind visible to the eye, shot forward directly at Shi Rong!

Shi Rong quickly broke herself out of her daze as she hastily dodged diving towards the ground and rolling on the side. The spot where she once stood suddenly exploded. A bead of sweat trickled down Shi Rong's face looking at the small creator. But she had no time to rest because Mei had already shot towards her.

Shi Rong quickly jumped to her feet and got into a defensive stance. The two swords collided causing a clanging sound to echo out and sparks to fly into the air. Mei did not stop at one strike as Shi Rong thought. She never expected that even after the first clash of swords instead of backing off she stepped forward again! She got the ominous feeling again and quickly dodged to the side. A gust of wind flew past crashing into the barrier that surrounded the stage, the barrier shook showing just how destructive this attack was.

Shi Rong's face paled. She felt a warm sensation on her side and realized that that wind alone was enough to cut her in half. Luckily she dodged or she would have been hurt far worst than a simple cut. But what scared her, even more, was when she saw Mei step forward again! Shi Rong did not wait for the sword to come down as she quickly sidestepped and thrust out, connecting with Mei's sword causing Mei to lose her grip on her sword.

Seeing this Shi Rong eyes lit up and quickly went for a follow up attack but she never expected that Mei would not retreat instead she threw out a left fist clashing with Shi Rong's sword with the back of her hand blocking the attack! Then Mei came around with her right fist, right at Shi Rong's head.

Elder Dan who was watching all this, suddenly felt things did not seem right, her body flashed and appeared on stage, her hand covered in spiritual qi caught Mei's fist, dispersing the wind surrounding her hand. Mei who seemed to be in a trance finally came to her senses when she realized her fist was blocked by someone else. Once she did she quickly took a few steps back and bowed her head. "My apologies I lost myself in the middle of battle. Sister Shi's fighting skill was very good which made me lose myself."

Elder Dan shook her head. She had to admit these two little girls were very good in battle. "It's fine. The last attack by Shi Rong was also aimed at vital whether she realized it or not. That probably triggered your trance. That is the reason why I am here. I only interfered because I knew Shi Rong would not be able to block your move. Little girl your skills are incredible. Even able to use the law of wind at such a young age. I look forward to your upcoming battles."

Mei tilted her head to the side not knowing what she meant by law of wind. Elder Dan frowned and her gaze turned towards Bai Hong who suddenly stroked his beard. He suddenly realized he forgot to mention to Mei about laws. He never went into full detail about the dao. Elder Dan shook her head and said to Mei: "Just ask your dumb master when you are done here for today. Anyway, The winner of this match is Mei!"

Elder Dan then looked at Shi Rong and nodded her head. "Little girl, You do not seem to have a master yet, and my direct disciple has ventured out into the world. I had been thinking about taking in a second direct disciple. Will you take me as your Master?"

Shi Rong stood there in a daze not understanding how this battle turned out to be such good fortune for her! Mei laughed seeing the girls daze and scooted over next to her and nudged Shi Rong with her elbow. "Quickly say yes."

Only then did Shi Rong come out of her daze and kneel to the ground. "Shi Rong greets master!"

"Mmm! Good child. As for you..." Elder Dan paused her words and flipped her hand. A few pieces of candy appeared in her hand. "I will live you these candies if you drop that old geezer and become my direct disciple instead."

With a whoosh sound, Bai Hong appeared in front of Mei who was standing there stupified! 'Why is she offering mee candy!?'

"You! Don't offer my disciple candy!" Bai Rong quickly turned around and placed his hands on Mei's shoulders. "Don't listen to her, her candy is dirty. It's old and full of fungus! Your master will give you all the candy you want!"

Mei's face went black as she screamed out in her head: 'I don't want any candy!'
