Chapter 416: 416

Eastern region, South State, Jade Ling Palace.

It was the time for the disciples of Jade Ling Palace to participate in the martial arts competition, a yearly event designed to boost the enthusiasm of each disciple, present them challenge, and reward those who perform exceptionally.

Every disciple of Jade Ling Palace aspired to participate in such competition, which was several levels higher than any other martial arts competitions in the eastern region!

The so-called geniuses in these competitions might only be good enough to enter the threshold of Jade Ling Palace, after all, it was the strongest among the three transcendent powerhouses in the Eastern region!

The martial arts competition had been underway for three days, from the outer disciples to the inner disciples, culminating in the final decisive combat among the direct disciples.

It was the last day of the martial arts competition, and the most intense and thrilling one at that, because this competition would witness the birth of the strongest young generation disciple of Jade Ling Palace.

Bang!

On the platform, a figure flew out like a cannonball, hitting the bottom of the platform fiercely, spitting out fresh blood.

“Ao Yan, victory!”

With the elder’s voice, there was an outburst of surprised exclamations from the audience, with many people jumping with joy.

Standing on the platform was a woman whose face was covered with a veil. One could only see half of her face clearly, but her beauty, as well as eyes sparkling like a cluster of stars, indicated that she was a stunningly beautiful woman.

Ao Yan casually swept her gaze over the crowd, and with a slight flutter in her step, she stepped down from the platform amid the audience’s gasps of amazement.

All eyes were glued to this extraordinary woman.

From the time Ao Yan entered Jade Ling Palace to the present, it had been just three months, but in such a short time, she had shown horrifying strength and potential, which shocked everyone.

When the Palace Master of Jade Ling Palace wished to make Ao Yan the Holy Maiden, many people had sneered at the notion, and many were displeased.

Why should a new disciple who had just entered the Jade Ling Palace become the Holy Maiden?

But now they dared not speak in such a way, not just because Ao Yan had reached the peak of Middle Stage of Fusion, but also because she had just easily knocked one of the top ten disciples from the previous competition off the platform!

That disciple was at the Late Stage of Fusion, and all disciples of Jade Ling Palace, regardless of their talents for cultivation or their potential, were superior to ordinary people, they were the crema of the crop.

Ao Yan’s ease at defeating him sufficed to prove her strength!

Ignoring the shocked expressions of the people, Ao Yan calmly walked to Martial Sea Immortal Venerable’s side. Although she was a Holy Maiden, she was also the direct disciple of Martial Sea Immortal Venerable.

“Very good, to reach such a level, you’ve already exceeded my expectations.”

Martial Sea Immortal Venerable smiled and nodded at Ao Yan.

With this victory, Ao Yan had already reached her most significant goal. That is to say, or rather, Ao Yan thought otherwise.

She wanted more time to go out freely.

She wanted to meet him, really wanted, and even more wanted to spend a lot of time with him.

To achieve this goal, she must win the championship!

“You want to win?”

Martial Sea Immortal Venerable suddenly looked at Ao Yan, she knew Ao Yan was desperate to meet that person, but winning the championship was not that easy.

Not to mention others, just Ao Yan’s next opponent, Ouyang Haohai, was not to be underestimated.

Ouyang Haohai, the Holy Son, was also a direct disciple of the Palace Master of Jade Ling Palace, his cultivation talent was not inferior to Ao Yan’s, and moreover, he possessed unique bloodline power.

Of course, in terms of bloodline power, compared to Ao Yan’s dragon bloodline, it was naturally inferior. However, because of Ouyang Haohai’s long cultivation time and special care from the Palace Master, the power of his bloodline had already been mostly activated by using numerous heavenly and earthly treasures.

This point could make up for their gap to some extent, and it’s needless to say, Ouyang Haohai was already at the peak of Late Integration Stage, trying to break through to the Half-step Tribulation Crossing Stage.

Ao Yan still lacks some foundation compared to him, and it would be tough for her to win.

Ao Yan was naturally aware of this point. After knowing Ouyang Haohai’s identity and strength, she considered him her biggest enemy.

To have a position that counts in Jade Ling Palace and to have more decision-making power, Ao Yan must defeat Ouyang Haohai, and it must be a comprehensive defeat.

However, when Martial Sea Immortal Venerable finished speaking, Ao Yan didn’t utter a word, leaving the crowd to speculate about what she was thinking.

“Congratulations, Sister Ao Yan, you have become one of the top four among the direct disciples!”

Speak of the devil, at this time, Ouyang Haohai walked up with a smile, starting to congratulate Ao Yan. However, Ao Yan didn’t even bother to glance at him.

Ouyang Haohai was left somewhat embarrassed for a while: “Uh, Sister Ao, our next opponent is you. Rest assured, I will…”

“I will defeat you, and then win the championship.”

Ao Yan suddenly interrupted him, finished speaking the words, then turned and walked to the side to sit down.

Such an attitude and words shocked all the disciples around.

My goodness, Ao Yan is really impressive, not only did she reject the Holy Son, Ouyang Haohai, but she was also so defiant.

Defeat Ouyang Haohai, that’s impossible, right?

Even Ouyang Haohai was taken aback, not understanding why Ao Yan was so intent on defeating him.

Scratching his nose, Ouyang Haohai gave an awkward laugh, “Fine, since that’s the case, I won’t go easy on you…”

In his view, there was no chance that Ao Yan could defeat him.

The gap in their strength was too significant.

Soon, the match began, the two of them stood on the platform, facing each other. Ao Yan’s eyes were full of cold determination, and Ouyang Haohai had a full-faced smile.

“Sister Ao Yan, there might be some difficulty in defeating me, but it’s okay to be brave and take a shot.”

But as soon as he finished speaking, Ouyang Haohai’s expression changed. Ao Yan had unexpectedly rushed towards him without a word.

Boom!

In the urgency of the moment, Ouyang Haohai raised his hand to counterattack, but their attacks collided in mid-air, causing a terrifying explosion of spiritual power. The entire platform was shaking, and the surrounding brothers and sisters who were watching the fight were almost embarrassed.

“Damn it, is Ao Yan’s strength really that strong?”

“She can actually fight the Holy Son to a standstill, what a mistake, she’s only just entered Jade Ling Palace, why is her growth rate so fast?”

Hahaha, isn’t that because of Ao Yan’s Dragon Bloodline force? Of course, Brother Ouyang’s Ancient Astral Bloodline is not weak either.”

At this time, a female disciple shook her head with a faint smile, not worried at all that Ouyang Haohai would lose, because it was impossible.

“Not bad, Sister Ao Yan, it seems that your strength has improved very rapidly.” Ouyang Haohai looked at Ao Yan in surprise.

Ao Yan snorted coldly: “You talk too much, watch out.”

With a clang, the sword was drawn, Ao Yan held a spiritual grade long sword in her hand, launching a ferocious attack on Ouyang Haohai.

Instead of staying in a stalemate, Ao Yan started to dominate the fight, pushing back Ouyang Haohai!

Such a scene shocked everyone in the audience.

Martial Sea Immortal Venerable even stood up, focusing intently on the silhouette of Ao Yan on the platform.

“How can this be, this sword technique…”
