Yang Zhai walked up the stage. From the other side came,
"Sufi Kho, representing Bang Sect from the Oe Continent!"
This meant that this time around, it wasn't a Young Master, but the leader of the Bang Sect. If he was a leader, there was a pretty good chance he might be quite old. So, the one who wanted to marry Yue Qing from the Bang Sect was the sect leader.
Sufi Kho seemed to be in his fifties. He was wearing simple clothing. His face is calm.
He comes forward and greets Yang Zhai.
"Nice to meet you, kid. I am quite old, so please go easy on me."
I don't know how this kid managed to become a Mastery Path cultivator, but he is just a kid. It should make him hesitate, which will result in him making mistakes and I can easily win. If he became a Mastery Path cultivator at such a young age, he is definitely talented and not ordinary. So, I cannot underestimate him: Sufi Kho thought.
"He is just a kid…"
"Isn't he the Youngest Master that we have been hearing about recently?"
"So, he was here to compete in the Competition of Masters after all."
"But even if he is a Mastery Path cultivator at such a young age, shouldn't Young Miss Yue Qing choose someone old and experienced? Look, that Sufi Kho is already playing tricks on him."
The crowd was in commotion. Even though they kept their voices low so that Ryu Tae wouldn't hear them, their voices still developed into a commotion and noise.
"I hope you do the same as well. I will make sure to do that." Yang Zhai said.
Nobody knew this, but Yang Zhai had already started playing. Sufi Kho chose the wrong person here. It was only his body that wasn't keeping with him, otherwise…
Going easy?: Yang Zhai thought and took his position with an amiable smile.
When Sufi Kho saw this, he was surprised a little and smiled back.
He took the bait: Sufi Kho contemplated.
Accompanying him was a Ioison Monitor.
The cultivator was at rank 5 and this Monitor was at rank 5 as well. It had a deep dark tail. Its eyes were also deep dark. The poison it could release into one's body could even kill a rank 5 cultivator. However, the condition was that it must bite the one it wanted to insert its poison into for at least three to four seconds.
This much time was needed to insert enough poison.
"Both of you, get ready and Go!"
Ryu Tae shouted and moved a little to the side this time.
"Go,"
Sufi Kho muttered and the Ioison Monitor ran towards the Shadow Leopard.
The Shadow Leopard dodged easily and ran behind it. However, Yang Zhai didn't make it get close to the Ioison Monitor.
The reason it was called Ioison Monitor was because its tail was worse than a whip, and its tail could even break iron of the same grade, thus, it came to be known as Ioison Monitor.
The Monitor turned around and ran towards the Leopard. The Shadow Leopard—having a speed advantage—dodged easily.
It jumped into the air and tried to strike the Ioison Monitor with its claw, but was struck by the Monitor's whip. It was thrown away.
Yang Zhai didn't worry and activated Deep Heal Ka and began to heal the Shadow Leopard. As the range of a rank 4 method was around 200 to 500 meters, Yang Zhai could heal it standing anywhere on the stage, not to mention that a Mastery Path Cultivator had more range than an ordinary path ka.
The Shadow Leopard had a deep cut on its stomach, but it was being healed. It growled and stood up. The Ioison Monitor ran towards it, but the Shadow Leopard simply ran and increased the distance. A hundred meters wasn't a small distance, so it could easily avoid the Monitor.
The Shadow Leopard had an advantage in speed, its bite, and its claws, but it needed to reach the Monitor to do anything. However, the Monitor had its tail to defend it.
The Shadow Leopard ran towards the Monitor again. This time, its skin had been strengthened because of the Deep Skin Ka. It jumped and managed to strike the Monitor's face before being struck with its tail again.
It was thrown away. On the other side, the Monitor had claw marks on its face.
Yang Zhai kept on repeating the process. Both of these were getting injured. However, the Shadow Leopard had more severe injuries; after all, it was fighting a rank 5 beast even if it had a speed advantage.
"What will he do now? His Leopard is only at rank 4."
"Yes, Young Miss Yue Qing should have chosen someone else instead of this kid."
"At this rate, he will lose his leopard."
"I really wish he could win. But I see no hope…"
"Young Miss Yue…"
The crowd was worried. It wasn't because they were worried for Yang Zhai but for Yue Qing.
Yue Qing was quite popular in the Eroh Domain, not just for her kindness, but also for her beauty. They said that because she was blind, she couldn't really feel pride in her beauty or herself. So, they felt that Yue Qing was humble for not showing off.
Yang Zhai looked at the Ioison Monitor's condition and then muttered,
"It's about time…"
Hiss!
A black, extremely black snake emerged from his left hand and slithered up to his left shoulder before moving around and sitting on both of his shoulders. Its tail was on his left shoulder, and the front part was on his right shoulder. It sat there quietly as it looked at the Ioison Monitor with its head raised, hissing.
…..
"Biu Le, why are you like this? You openly show enmity toward me, unlike my siblings," Yue Qing said without holding back or hesitating.
"It's not enmity, it's my way of showing care. If you stay here, you will only ruin your life. You even ended up seducing Wu Zhu…"
Biu Le hesitated here.
Wu Zhu looked at Biu Le with resentment.
"When did I do that?! I was in my room, not in Wu Zhu's. It was him who… Anyway, I am impressed he is still alive! If I could see, both of these brothers would be dead!" Yue Qing said with a strict tone and her words contained clear anger.
Now, Wu Zhu looked at Yue Qing with resentment.
Wu Zhi looked at all this quietly.
"The reason I am not killing them is because I am blind. I don't want to contend with more than I already am. I am already depending on others as is…" Yue Qing said.
"Forget it, you two. Anyway, begin." Sun Jian said this.
"Anyway, father. I heard that you placed two rank 7 materials as rewards for the winner of this competition." Biu Le said.
"Yes, I did."
"I wonder why?"
"It was Yue Qing who asked me to do so."
"Oh, I wonder why you would do that, Yue?" Biu Le was confused and surprised.
After being silent for a while, Yue Qing answered,
"Because I wanted to mock the Mastery Path cultivators for they are willing to fight for some benefits and ruin my life along the way. This will also be an insult to those people behind them." Yue Qing didn't hesitate again.
Impressive, she didn't reveal me and covered it quite well: Yang Zhai contemplated.
