‹Zao Gu is in control›
"Hun Rin vs Bihng Riut will now begin, get onto the field and throw yourselves at each other."
As the fight began you could see them struggling to control their more than enormous amounts of new found strength. more than once they created massive footprints in the earth and when they wanted to get out they fell. After about 1 minute of this circus-like behaviour they finally got a handle on their newfound strength at least almost even now they sometimes fell or accidentally launched at the opponent and then massively overshot their target and fell into the mud of the still forest-like battlefield from last time. although this time it was really an infinite with no bounds keeping you in like last time a match could even take 5 hours before the first punch is landed. the major thing to combat you from hiding is that if you get appart more than 100 meters then in your mind you will be told where to go to find the other person.
Bihng Rout then was the first to go in for a hit but just barely Hun Rin dodged the attack with just a slight scrape across the upper left arm. luckily in this fight I had prohibited poison as this time there would be runes instead.
"You don't stand a chance against me, a 3rd level you are only a 1st level cultivation disciple! HAHAHAHA."
"You think you little smelly brat!" as they were both women they were just Bekkering back and forward just to catch the other off guard or make the other feel so bad about themselves so they would just give up. This of course never worked as they were both equally stubborn, they both couldn't afford to lose. They didn't want to be looked down upon.
Then the first ethereal voice was heard. "Mania Death arises." as the skeletons came from the ground she immediately fused all of them together and made them focus on distracting Bihng Riut.
As the skeleton was distracting Bihng Riut hun Rin was making a magic circle on the floor not just one but a lot of hard to draw magic circles were drawn some even going as far as to suck the Qi out of one of the other circles. there were around 30 circles in a square kilometer.
"hmm interesting." Xu Wen said to me. "that seems to be a hard magic circle of the ordinary secondary level which usually would take around 5 years to get to."
"Impressive in my past life I didn't focus on it so I got to the novice secondary level." Zao Gu said with a crooked smile on his face showing his interest in the little girl.
"Yes we might have a really talented magic circle controller." Yu Chen answered with a broad smile as magic circle controllers were really rare.
As Bihng Riut continued running towards the opponent the magic circle activated casting both a slow ess and a binding spell onto her keeping her in place also a cultivation sealing spell was cast but it only sealed her cultivation back to 1st level cultivation disciple and not down any lower.
you could hear a startled grunt coming from the arena in which Bihng Riut was captured. "What how did you do this, this is not something a normal person can do you witch." she said in anger but quickly apologized to her as she didn't mean it like that and then she withdrew herself from the competition as she didn't want to get beaten up while she couldn't do anything.
"Well everyone that concludes the first love of the bracket style and my side the sect leaders side has won this means up next is the epic battle between Rong Lu and Wong Tzu who have people at the exact same level the only difference is that they know a different ultimate. But first a short break." as I said that I stood up and walked over to Hun Rin.
She looked up at me questioning me about what I was going to say next but without saying it. I opened my mouth and said. "Why did you go into our sect with those skills you could have joined any sect."
"I didn't want to join a sect that only wants me for my magic circle control and treats me well even without knowing it, it of course still had to be better than a crappy sect with just the sect leader who wants me to join."
"Well I am glad you see our sect as a qualified sect for your needs and abilities." I said with a large grin across my face notifying her that I didn't mean it in a negative way but in a positive way.
"Actually I meant to ask but what happens to your eye if you are comfortable with talking about it with me."
"Well I." As I said this a long silence fell no sound could be heard inside the entire sect as everyone was listening in on the conversation.
As I wanted to say something about it they saw me falling to the floor knocked out.
