When Emperor Bei Chen mentioned Bai Li Hong Zhuang's opponent, he suddenly paused. Seeing this, Bai Li Hong Zhuang couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"Master Qin was probably too happy earlier, so he had some bad luck during the draw. Your opponent is Shen Xiu Han," Emperor Bei Chen said slowly.
Although the results of the competition between the four halls had already been determined, achieving a higher ranking in the finals would naturally be better.
The finals were different from the preliminaries. It wasn't the case that participants from the same hall couldn't be drawn against each other. However, everyone hoped to face opponents from their own halls later in the draw.
After all, the first match of the finals had already determined the top five and bottom five rankings. If Bai Li Hong Zhuang were to face Shen Xiu Han, it would mean that one of them would not be able to enter the top five.
Upon hearing that her opponent was Shen Xiu Han, Bai Li Hong Zhuang smiled meaningfully.
"So, he's my opponent." Bai Li Hong Zhuang's voice was warm but carried a hint of irony. "I've wanted to have a match with him for a long time. Master Qin made a good draw."
Emperor Bei Chen naturally knew about the incident that had happened to Bai Li Hong Zhuang earlier. The slander and mockery wouldn't harm Bai Li Hong Zhuang, but it was Shen Xiu Han and the others who were now losing face.
"Just do your best and don't push yourself too hard," Emperor Bei Chen advised.
Shen Xiu Han, as the top expert of the Vermilion Bird Hall, had a well-deserved reputation.
Since the moment Bai Li Hong Zhuang entered the finals, she had already been completely vindicated. Even if she couldn't achieve a high ranking in this final, it would be impossible for anyone to overlook her.
There would be plenty of opportunities to deal with Shen Xiu Han in the future, so there was no need to rush it.
If she were to end up seriously injured because of it, it wouldn't be worth it in the end.
After all, their ultimate goal was the Battle for Supremacy.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
For the following matches that didn't concern Bai Li Hong Zhuang, she remained in her room, cultivating.
With the existence of the Desert World, one day of cultivation for Bai Li Hong Zhuang was equivalent to three and a half days for an ordinary person. Therefore, wasting even a single day was extremely unprofitable.
With Lan Qing Yan's status in the Lan family, she didn't need to participate in any competitions to easily secure a spot in the Battle for Supremacy.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang assumed that Lan Qing Yan must be in seclusion, practicing diligently in the Lan family, so she couldn't fall behind.
Her cultivation time was already shorter than Lan Qing Yan's, and now she could catch up a bit with the help of the Chaos Ring.
However, in the eyes of the Tian Gang Sect disciples, Bai Li Hong Zhuang's behavior was undoubtedly very strange.
The finals were the most exciting matches, and almost all the participants in the finals came to watch.
Knowing your opponent well is crucial in battle, and it would be great to have an earlier understanding of their strength and cards.
But at this moment, Bai Li Hong Zhuang didn't show up and instead focused on her cultivation. This was quite uncommon.
Although cultivation was extremely important, it was only a matter of a few days. Bai Li Hong Zhuang didn't spare any time to take a look, as if her cultivation was so demanding.
However, Bai Li Hong Zhuang's actions actually made many disciples admire her even more.
It was precisely because Bai Li Hong Zhuang was so dedicated to her cultivation that her cultivation level could improve so rapidly.
Otherwise, it would have been unimaginable for a newly promoted disciple to make it to the finals.
From another perspective, it was already remarkable that Bai Li Hong Zhuang could enter the finals. It would be almost impossible for her to achieve a good ranking in the finals.
