619 Crimson Rain Sect arrived
p、A,nd A-n、o、ve,1 The competition continued as it brought thrills into the crowd. The battles were becoming more and more intense as the match progressed. The third round ended in two hours then the fourth round started.
The night approached but the competition still continued as the Profound Blossom Sect made proper lighting arrangements for the night.
In the early morning, the top twenty finally emerged.
At this time, Yan Qiu announced a short break before starting the next round.
A group arrived led by three Elders and two middle-aged men. They had sword-shaped eyebrows and a steady aura.
There was also a female Elder who looked to be in her thirties or forties. She looked like an old woman who still had her charm.
There were many young cultivators following behind the three Elders. They carried red jade on their waists and three-foot-long swords on their backs. All of them were walking in the Profound Blossom Sect as if they were in the spring breeze.
They were all top-notch geniuses of the Crimson Rain Sect, so they were naturally conceited!
At this moment, Yan Qiu came to welcome the disciples from the Crimson Rain Sect.
The Crimson Rain Sect’s strength was higher than the Profound Blossom Sect, so the Profound Blossom Sect naturally could not neglect it. However, they could not let the Crimson Rain Sect suppress them either.
“Sect Master Qiu, long time no see!” At this moment, a middle-aged man walked up and cupped his hands toward Sect Master Yan Qiu.
Yan Qiu immediately returned the greeting, “Welcome to my sect. Everyone, please come with me, I will take you to the arena. We are in the middle of the competition.”
After that, she led everyone to the arena field. As she knew that they were coming she prepared an extra blank space for them in the stadium. Naturally, the arrival of the Crimson Rain Sect attracted lots of attention.
The Crimson Rain Sect was surprised to see so many people in the stadium who came to watch the competition of the Profound Blossom Sect. They smirked inwardly; they were getting a free large audience this way. Coming to the Profound Blossom Sect this time was the best choice for them.
As their group arrived in the arena, Feng Yun and others looked at them with curiosity.
“So, they all are Earth Profound Realm disciples. Hmm, a disciple with Peak Stage of Earth Profound realm cultivation. That is going to be tricky.” Feng Yun muttered softly when he read the cultivation level of the disciples of the Crimson Rain Sect. The strongest disciple of the Profound Blossom Sect, Zhou Shan was a Late-Stage Earth Profound Realm cultivator. Feng Yun wasn’t sure if she could be his opponent or not.
“Sect Master Qiu, what about spare? Our disciples are very eager to learn from your disciples.” One elder of the Crimson Rain Sect made a proposal.
Yan Qiu pondered for a moment as she looked at the elders. The competition hasn’t finished yet. After thinking for a while, she came to a conclusion and said, “If that’s what you want then we can start right away.”
Although she wanted to wait for the competition to end, it would be bad for the sect. If the disciples of the Profound Blossom Sect were to fight in front of the people of the Crimson Rain Sect, all their skills would be revealed to their opponent.
After that, Yan Qiu announced to the crowd about the Crimson Rain Sect’s challenge.
“So it’s starting!”
“Who do you think will win?”
“I think the Crimson Rain Sect will win as their sect’s rank is greater than Profound Blossom Sect.”
“I also heard that their strength is just below the five great sects.”
The crowd became a little thrilled after hearing the announcement and they started whispering.
The Profound Blossom Sect vs The Crimson Rain Sect!
Soon both sects’ disciples arrived at the arena standing in front of each other.
“Is this level of the Profound Blossom Sect? It’s too bad!”
“They reached the top twenty with their Golden Core Realm cultivation. It’s pathetic.” The disciples of the Crimson Rain Sect inspect the disciples of the Profound Blossom Sect and said while ridiculing.
“Don’t be complacent. They have ten Earth Profound Realm disciples as well. Be careful!”
“Yes, you should never look down on your opponent.” The two elders of the Crimson Rain Sect whispered softly after seeing their disciples were becoming arrogant.
“Yes, elder!” The disciples nodded lightly.
On the other hand, the disciples of the Profound Blossom Sect were feeling pressure after seeing their opponent.
“Why are guys feeling so much pressure? Where is your confidence? Have you forgotten all the hard training and long practice? The sect has placed so many resources on us, we can’t let it down.” Zhou Shan looked at others and scolded them angrily. “It’s normal to feel some pressure but I will not tolerate cowardness in my team.”
“Yes, senior sister!” All of them nodded.
Soon Yan Qiu gave a signal and the game started. Both teams will send their one player, the winner will get one point. This was a friendly spare so no brutal means or killing, crippling were allowed to use in the match. Even the boosting pills were banned by Yan Qiu.
Soon the match started and the referee walked onto the stage as the Profound Blossom Sect was the host this time, the referee was an elder of the sect.
“So, who is going in first?” An elder of the crimson rain sect asked to the disciples.
“I will go, elder!”
“Okay, Lin Yao. You go, remember you can’t lose here.” Elder nodded and said sternly.
“I know, elder song! I will not lose.” A disciple of the crimson rain sect walked out and moved onto the stage.
Lin Yao slowly pulled out his sword and did not hide his aura. The aura of an Early Grade Earth Profound Realm instantly erupted.
“I, Lin Yao from Crimson Rain Sect come here to seek guidance!” Lin Yao arrived on the stage and announced.
A male disciple of the Profound Blossom sect also moved onto the stage. Standing in front of Lin Yao, he said slowly, “My name is Meng Qin, one of the core disciples of Profound Blossom Sect. I will be your opponent.” After saying that, he also released his aura which was the same as Lin Yao.
Lin Yao nodded lightly. After the referee gave the signal, the match started.
“Here I go!” With a loud shout, Lin Yao waved the sword in his hand and a sword of flames instantly pounced toward Meng Qin.
Meng Qin didn’t show any sign of nervousness as he hold his sword tightly in his hand and moved it swiftly.
Suddenly, the scene on the stage changed. Meng Qin’s sword erupted with a dense water aura when Lin Yao’s sword of flames attacked. A thick curtain of water appeared in front of him.
In an instant, he absorbed this sword of fire completely. From beginning to end, he did not even move.
“This…”
The disciples of the Crimson Rain Sect were surprised after seeing the scene.
Lin Yao didn’t stop as he rushed forward toward Meng Qin. Meng Qin also moved and met him head-on. Sounds of sword clashing appeared on the stage as both of them fought in close combat.
