Other than me the rest of the Direct Disciples had lost in their battles so there was a lot of pressure on Shi Tian who was one of the last to fight
Feng Li also wasn't going to back down, the Mindar sect had suffered great losses this time and as a successor to Grand Elder Feng he had to win this fight at all costs
"I won't hold back"
Feng Li said as he prepared to attack
"I see, so you are just like that other bastard, he also never held back"
Shi Tian said as painful memories surfaced and he clenched his sword tightly and his teeth grinded against each other
When the match began Feng Li summoned shards of ice from the ground stopping Shi Tian's advance before launching thousands of ice needles overwhelming Shi Tian who barely managed to dodge and had a few ice needles stab into his leg
Feng Li then created a frost zone which chilled the surrounding air making it possible to attack much faster with ice attacks
Before Shi Tian could do anything he felt a cold shard of ice slam down on his head smashing him into the floor
When the winner was announced I dashed out to the arena in a hurry, upon seeing me running towards him Shi Tian felt a pang of regret
'maybe he actually isn't as bad as I thought and it's all just a misunderstanding?'
He thought to himself briefly before tearing the idea to shreds as I accidentally stepped on him when I came up to Feng Li and wrapped my hand over his shoulder to congratulate him as we walked off the stage together
"I'll kill you! Do you hear me!? I'll kill you!!!"
Shi Tian raged as we walked away
"what a sore loser"
I said before he spit out blood and passed out, to threaten the opponent after a loss is bad sportsmanship
After the competition ended I had went together with Feng Li to a restaurant for old times sake, we haven't seen each other for a year after all
We ate our fill and told stories of what we encountered during this past year before retiring back to out Inn rooms
"although I have no idea who he is, I had a great time"
Feng Li said before going to sleep
I on the other hand was too excited to sleep, today I had gained three great new talents in Xin arts
Pacifica lvl 5 which increased the amount of Li I could store in my body
Ice heart lvl 7 which was similar to sword heart and gave me a strong affinity towards ice techniques
And Kenetic lvl 5 which made my ability to affect things physically using Li outside my body, with this I could fly even without my contraption as long as I reached the Apprentice Xin rank
I spent the entire night practicing Xin arts and absorbing Li into my mind, tomorrow as an exchange program the students that had achieved victory of the two sects could enter each other's library so I was looking forward to that
Feng Li had no interest in learning Jin arts so we decided to travel together towards Mindar sect
